Chapter 463 [Train] Tunnel (1)
One coincidence after another, from points to lines, from lines to surfaces, ultimately constructs a plausible reality.
This inevitably reminded Chen Ji of the power of a fountain pen.
Is it really just a strange creature created by the Creator Demon?
Chen Ji couldn't help but have doubts, but this could never be confirmed, because according to the Wang family records, all the source corpses had withered away.
The same goes for the Creator Ghost.
However, he then thought that if the pen was indeed like the Usu, a being that transcended the supernatural, then given its connection with the Creator Ghost, the Ghostly Lord would not allow Chen Ji to bind the pen and open the Netherworld.
This thought immediately put his mind at ease.
Bringing his thoughts back, Chen Ji realized that everyone else had fallen silent and all eyes were on him.
"...Don't worry, you'll have other opportunities to get other A-level monsters in the future."
Han Bing looked sympathetic.
Chen Yuetan looked at Chen Ji questioningly.
He knew that the closure of his Netherworld was related to Wusu, but Chen Ji and Du Tingfeng were not.
Chen Ji shook his head: "No, this is only temporary."
"Our monster will return once we leave this area."
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Du Tingfeng, intending to discuss the bargaining chips with him, but he saw that the other party was sitting next to Tian Qinghe, and the two were talking quietly.
After a while, Du Tingfeng waved, signaling Chen Ji to come over.
"what happened?"
"The painting I just mentioned," Tian Qinghe said, "contains several important clues."
"First, the content of the painting is a passage, and the clues at the end of the passage cannot be drawn."
"Second, there were at least seven or eight coffins placed beside the passage, each with a photograph attached. The clue book focused on the first and last coffins."
“The first one inside is the true form of the monk ghost,” Tian Qinghe said. “It affected the clue book and tried to kill me on the spot, but Bi Shuiyu saved my life.”
"Bi Su?" Chen Ji's heart sank. If Bi Su could make a move, the scene that Tian Qinghe had seen must be directly related to the Source Corpse.
“Yes,” Tian Qinghe said, “but that’s not the point.”
"This is the last coffin."
"It's empty inside, and the photo on it... is of Du Muyu. That's Du Muyu's coffin."
Chen Ji subconsciously looked at Du Tingfeng. He was somewhat shocked by this, but not surprised, since all the previous connections indicated that Du Muyu was connected to the Creator Ghost.
But to his surprise, Du Tingfeng remained calm.
"At least now I know what the ghost that possessed my sister's body really is."
Du Tingfeng said softly, "Chen Ji, you said that the Source Corpse would seek out the Ghost Slave, right?"
Chen Ji nodded.
This is evident in Tuotuo Mountain, where Old Sun was simply influenced by the tomb gate and was bewitched into becoming a ghost slave.
Moreover, as the pen has also said, the biggest difference between a creation ghost and a ghost infant is that the area where it resides has a large number of ghosts.
“This is what I think,” Du Tingfeng speculated. “The photo you saw had a serial number on it.”
"Based on the placement of the coffin, the monk ghost is the first ghost servant, and my sister is the last one."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ji's eyes flashed, and he instantly recalled what Du Muyu had said before she disappeared!
"Tian Qinghe," he suddenly said, "it's a miracle you didn't die back then."
"There's an 80% chance that the end of the passage leads to the corpse of the Creator Demon!"
Du Muyu once said that she always dreamed of walking in a dark passage, and she felt very lonely.
Now it seems that this is indeed the acupoint.
“So, the [ghost] that invaded Du Muyu’s body went to search for the essence…” Chen Ji murmured.
It's not about recreating a fountain pen.
"Because she needs to open the tomb door and go back into the coffin!"
[Ghost] is a ghost servant.
In this world, perhaps only Chen Ji and Xu Sandao know its purpose.
Because they had been to Tuotuo Mountain, they knew that to open the door, they had to gather six pieces of waste material, which is the essence!
This was also Lao Sun's original intention.
At this point, a vague idea suddenly popped into Chen Ji's mind: was the opportunity to get on the bus related to its essence? Was it similar to the function of a ticket?
But he quickly dismissed the idea.
Because this doesn't explain how Tian Qinghe got on the bus, and he has no inherent nature.
Those two bats are a possibility.
They put that idea aside for now and gathered together, as there were more important things to do.
Five civilians are still with the ghost.
"When we were almost at the station, we saw a group of people in the tunnel," Chen Yuetan said. "Now it seems to be them."
“They may have been coerced, or the ghost may have impersonated you. I tend to believe the latter, because it would be easier to trick them into reciting the Great Mantra.”
“But there’s a problem.” Han Bing sensed something was wrong: “You can chant incantations anywhere, so why did it take them to the tunnel?”
This proves that the ghost's ultimate goal was not to chant incantations.
But what exactly it is, no one knows yet.
As officials, Han Bing and Tian Qinghe, whether out of conscience or duty, had to rescue them. On the other hand, Chen Ji also had to see the ghost.
Because the original form of that ghost was a rosary of a monk ghost.
The two prayer beads that Chen Yuetan gave to Chen Ji greatly slowed down the progression of his curse. It is very likely that the way to break the curse lies in the dead end of facing the ghost.
Without further hesitation, Chen Ji collected the lungs that Tian Qinghe had vomited into a bag, while Han Bing carried Tian Qinghe on her back.
It will take some time for the side effects of Tian Qinghe's life-saving artifact to disappear.
He was incredibly lucky. If the ghost had returned to the main hall, given Tian Qinghe's physical condition at the time, he would have had no chance of survival.
At the same time, there was a tapping sound coming from outside the window.
This time, as Hida Kiyoka had mentioned before, there were two more new ghosts...
"The bat people."
Chen Ji glanced out the window but didn't see Zhang Qiang or Liu Yan's husband.
It seems only those who die on the train are eager to return to the station.
The group set off immediately.
The bus stop downstairs was different from what Tian Qinghe had imagined. The scarlet emergency lights flickered on and off, just like a scene from a disaster movie.
Tian Qinghe lay on Han Bing's back, feeling as if a zombie would jump out from any corner at any moment.
Resident Evil, Train to Busan...
It seems like there are train station scenes in all of them?
He couldn't remember clearly. His memory was affected by the clue book, making it somewhat fragmented and missing many parts.
Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something flashing in the shadows not far away!
Tian Qinghe's heart tightened suddenly.
He was right!
The next second, he felt a weight on his back, and his ear...
Suddenly, a slight itching sensation came over me.
Something was lying on his back.
very light.
Then Chen Ji captured him.
Chen Ji looked helplessly at the monkey doll in his hand, which had inexplicably jumped off his shoulder and disappeared somewhere.
The monkey quietly spread out its hands.
Inside was half a pale purple ribbon.
