Jiang Ran's soul swapped with his parallel world self, and he arrived in a strange world of rules. Amidst rules that are hard to distinguish between true and false, and a succession of ill-inte...
Individual ID 072, Hanged Ghost, Malice!
Jiang Ran looked at the woman hanging in the air and quickly recognized her!
Hanging ghosts are divided into two categories: male corpses and female corpses. Male corpses will attack as soon as someone sees them, leaving bloodstains on the injured!
Bloodstains will gradually erode the mind of the ghost storyteller, easily causing them to make mistakes in judgment and die in the world of ghost stories.
In contrast, the female corpse can only sense the presence of the target when they are extremely close, and once the female corpse discovers them, there is only one outcome—death!
Jiang Ran was unlucky. The basement passage was already narrow, and with the female corpse hanging there, he was completely blocked from getting out of the way!
He patted Gwen's head: "Sweetie, why don't you go help me move the food over?"
"No, no, no! I'm really going to die!"
Gwen shook her head like a rattle-drum. Hanged ghosts don't care if you're human or a weirdo; anyone who gets close will die!
I remember there was a time when ghost story tellers used hanged ghosts to deal with other eerie creatures. There's no need to even think about such a certain death situation!
Gwen is now terrified that Jiang Ran will point a gun at her, or it would be the end of her!
Of course, Jiang Ran wasn't that stupid.
The contract doll's abilities are still useful, and besides, in this situation where there's no way out but certain death, no amount of threats will work.
"Don't worry! Why would I force such a cute little girl? You have to believe that I'm a good person!"
hehe.
Gwen's lips twitched.
If it were any other ghost story writer, they would usually return the way they came and leave after clearing the day's level to collect the mid-way reward. After all, if they couldn't get food, they wouldn't have the right to stay here indefinitely.
But he was Jiang Ran, so he directly raised the pistol in his hand and pointed it at the female corpse.
"If you refreshed in any other place, I might really just ignore you."
The viewers in the live stream watched Jiang Ran raise his pistol and couldn't help but feel a chill for him. The female corpse would pounce on him regardless of the size of the area once she was attacked!
So if Jiang Ran's shot hits that 20% probability, he'll be doomed!
Bang--
The female corpse turned to ashes after a scream, and Gwen shuddered, instinctively taking a step back.
Foreign leaders all cursed under their breath about their incredible luck!
"You can only pretend for the first two days! Let's see if you still dare to gamble on the third day when there's a 60% chance! What about the fourth day when there's only a 40% chance?!"
"That's hard to say. What if Brother Jiang is a Three Kingdoms Kill player?"
"Phew~ Not bad."
Jiang Ran blew on the muzzle of the gun with satisfaction. The female corpse was paralyzed the moment she was hit, and had no chance to resist. The fact that she was able to let out that scream showed that she had some strength.
"Go, help me move the food over here."
"Okay, okay, okay! I'll go right away!"
Ouch, how tragic.
Jiang Ran soon received a box of instant noodles. Looking at the label, he thought, "Hmm, Yitong Beef Noodles, authentic and delicious!"
Wait, unification?
Something looks a bit off.
Jiang Ran immediately broke open the instant noodle box. When he felt that the instant noodles were very light, he immediately sensed something was wrong. When he opened it, he was even more surprised!
Yi Tong Beef Noodles, damn it, there's only one bucket!
The only consolation might be that this bucket is relatively large, enough for a day's supply. The question is, will he starve for the next few days?
No one knows how many days this world of strange tales will last!
"Oh well, every little bit helps. This damn world is so stingy..."
Jiang Ran carried the bucket of instant noodles to the kitchen, filled it with hot water, and started making it. Gwen wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth; her energy had been overused, and her stomach was empty. She was in such a state that no one else could compare.
"What, you want some too?"
"No, I can't eat human food..."
I want to eat you, bro!
"That's good. Even if you want to eat it, I won't give it to you."
What a joke! I don't even have enough to eat for myself!
The two stared at each other in this awkward situation. Gwen watched as Jiang Ran finished half a bucket of instant noodles, and her determination to kill him grew even stronger!
Jiang Ran glanced at the wall clock. It was 9:30 a.m., and there was still a long time before noon, let alone evening!
So he wasn't in a hurry, and crossed his legs on the sofa: "Come on, Gwen, let me tell you a story!"
"I am Little Red Riding Hood. I've been reborn, reborn the day before I was eaten by the Big Bad Wolf..."
The viewers in the live stream suddenly felt something was off. The other ghost story tellers were either in their studies racking their brains to figure out their next move, or flipping through books looking for keys, or some had already joined the King of Hell. And here you are, telling stories.
"Actually, I've always thought that Brother Jiang has a strong mental fortitude, but it seems a bit too strong."
Gwen was initially resistant, but everything eventually becomes irresistible.
"And then what? What will Little Red Riding Hood do after breaking through to the Golden Core stage?"
"Well—cough cough, to find out what happens next, stay tuned for the next episode!"
When ghost storytellers don't do anything productive for a long time, they feel that time flows very fast in the ghost story world. Jiang Ran had already talked until 6 pm without realizing it.
The viewers in the live stream had been listening to Little Red Riding Hood's cultivation journey for a full eight and a half hours, witnessing how Little Red Riding Hood, after suffering the double setbacks of having her supreme bone dug out and being jilted by the Big Bad Wolf, joined the Sheep Village Old Goddess Cult to seek revenge.
"No, what the hell have I been listening to for the past eight hours?"
"But... what exactly is Little Red Riding Hood supposed to do after breaking through to the Golden Core stage? I really want to know!"
Jiang Ran got up and walked towards the study.
"It's getting late, we should get the keys."
As soon as he finished speaking, the viewers in the live stream realized that they were watching a ghost story live stream. They had completely forgotten about it!
The foreign spies lying in wait in the Dragon Kingdom's live broadcast room were all awakened and hurriedly replied to the message above.
"It's been too long, I haven't been watching closely. Has anything unusual happened in the Dragon Kingdom?"
"Um, does Little Red Riding Hood breaking through to the Golden Core stage count?"
It wasn't until Jiang Ran completely entered the study that netizens finally snapped out of their thoughts and started to feel nervous for him!
"This time, violating the rules seems to have resulted in a self-destruction death. Brother Jiang's marksmanship was useless!"
Jiang Ran's gaze swept over the rows of books. Was it really too troublesome for him to find them himself?
“Gwen! Key…”
"I know! It's in the 17th book from the left in the third row!"
Before Jiang Ran could finish speaking, Gwen gave his answer, which made him sigh that the little girl was becoming more and more useful.
In front of everyone, he pulled out the book with the black pages!
