Chapter 1118: Ghost Substitute, A Narrow Escape
??
Jiang Duo was so excited that Xiong Luoying and Chang Hao hurriedly took out the talismans. The two of them hadn’t taken the talismans seriously just now, but seeing that Jiang Duo wanted their talismans, they immediately covered their pockets and refused to give them to him no matter what. They expressed that they were brave and would throw the talismans at that thing later.
Jiang Duo was furious at the change in their attitudes. In the end, he still took out a few from their pockets and prepared to give them to Xiao Ningjin at any time.
Xiao Ningjin hadn’t had any hope before, but now that he saw that these talismans were really useful, he was stupefied. His eyes widened in disbelief and his face was filled with excitement. His first thought was regret that he hadn’t bought more talismans from Master Chi and that he shouldn’t have underestimated her.
His second thought was that if he could escape death this time, he would definitely buy as many talismans as possible.
While Xiao Ningjin was in a daze, the thing suddenly recovered and attacked him again. Its expression was especially sinister.
Xiao Ningjin threw another talisman at the thing. This time, the thing knew that the yellow paper could cause damage to it. Its body was stiff, but wasn’t any less agile as it dodged the talisman and quickly pounced on Xiao Ningjin. It also stretched out one hand to grab Xiao Ningjin by the neck.
Jiang Duo, Chang Hao and Xiong Luoying, who were watching on the side, were scared witless, afraid that Xiao Ningjin would follow in Wei Panyang’s footsteps.
“Holy sh*t! Ningjin, be careful!”
“Ningjin, be careful!”
It was just that as soon as the bloated hand touched Xiao Ningjin, he quickly stuck a talisman on it. The hand suddenly turned black and emitted black smoke. The thing immediately pulled back its hand and screamed.
The thing quickly recovered and attacked Xiao Ningjin again.
Xiao Ningjin simply took out two talismans and threw them at the thing, sending it flying a few meters away.
Taking advantage of that moment, Chang Hao and Xiong Luoying quickly reached for the talismans which Xiao Ningjin had thrown out. Chang Hao was agile and had the upper hand, so he quickly grabbed the talismans.

Chang Hao immediately put the talismans into his pocket. Jiang Duo and Xiao Ningjin almost cursed when they saw this, especially Jiang Duo. These two brats had disdained these talismans before!
As for Xiao Ningjin, if he hadn’t been paying attention to that ghost thing, he would have stomped his foot when he saw Chang Hao put his talismans in his pocket.
Chang Hao pretended not to see the gazes of the others.
Jiang Duo also withdrew his attention from Chang Hao and suddenly looked at the ghost thing that had crashed into the wall and didn’t move. His face changed. After a long while, seeing that there was still no movement from it, he couldn’t help but feel excited. “Ningjin, did we get rid of that ghost thing?”
Xiong Luoying and Chang Hao could be said to have narrowly escaped death. Seeing that the thing didn’t move for a long time, they agreed with Ah Duo and couldn’t help but be excited. “Ningjin, Ah Duo, did we really deal with that ghost thing? Definitely! We definitely dealt with it! I didn’t expect the talismans from Master Chi to be so useful.”
Xiao Ningjin didn’t immediately reply. He had always been cautious. Looking at the motionless thing, he wondered if it was pretending to be dead, but felt that it was unlikely. ????n????????e????????. ????o????
Xiao Ningjin didn’t reply, and the others took his words as tacit agreement. Jiang Duo was excited and hurriedly had Chang Hao and Xiong Luoying open the door. He walked toward the ghost thing to confirm if it was really dead or not.
Xiao Ningjin frowned when Jiang Duo walked over. He was about to speak, when Xiong Luoying and Jiang Hao said to Xiao Ningjin and Jiang Duo, “Ningjin, Ah Duo, come and help. Why can’t this door be opened?”
Xiao Ningjin walked over. Before Jiang Duo confirmed whether the thing was dead or not, he looked up and said to them, “Try to open it yourself first. I’ll come over in a bit! Also, see if anyone can call 120!”
What if Wei Panyang could still be saved?
As Jiang Duo spoke, he was about to give more instructions, when the faces of the originally calm people changed drastically. They stared in his direction with wide, horrified eyes, each expression more deathly pale than the last, like the first time they saw “Fang Yinglong” turn into that ghost thing.
Jiang Duo keenly sensed that something wasn’t right, and his right eyelid twitched. He subconsciously turned his head and saw that the ghost thing was standing right behind him, a sinister and twisted smile on its face. It suddenly stabbed him in the abdomen with the bloody dagger.
“Ah Duo!”
“Ah Duo!”
Xiao Ningjin, Chang Hao and Xiong Luoying’s eyes widened.
Jiang Duo’s eyes widened in horror. Under the light, he could clearly see that this thing’s face was especially distorted and bloated, as if it had been immersed in water for a few days. Dark purple and blue livor mortis spots spread over its face, which was very terrifying. He also clearly smelled the strong putrid odor of water on this thing. Apart from that, his mind was blank, and his legs felt like they were filled with lead.
Just as Jiang Duo thought that he was dead for sure, the jade pendant around his neck suddenly started to gather spiritual energy. Before the dagger could reach his abdomen, a white light shot out from the jade pendant and struck the space between the other party’s eyebrows.
Hoarse howls rang out.
“Fang Yinglong’s” face suddenly twisted and black smoke rose from his body.
Everyone saw a twisted human-like figure break away from “Fang Yinglong’s” body. It writhed in the air.
The howls were sharp and eerie. Water dripped and gradually spread, filling the private room with the smell of water.
The flickering lights went back to normal, and the black smoke in the air instantly disappeared.
Fang Yinglong suddenly fell to the floor.
The black screen in the private room suddenly started up again, and the locked door clattered open.
“Ah Duo! Ah Duo! Are you okay?”
“Ah Duo, are you okay?”
The stupefied Xiao Ningjin, Chang Hao and Xiong Luoying immediately came back to their senses. They hurriedly walked over and examined Jiang Duo, only to see that he was a little stunned and hadn’t suffered any injuries.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe three were about to speak, when they saw the gradually dimming white jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck. The three of them looked like they wanted to say something, but hesitated.
Jiang Duo was still in shock, and only came back to his senses a few minutes later. He was in disbelief. “I’m not dead? I’m not dead? I’m not dead? How can I not be dead?”
Jiang Duo had seen with his own eyes the thing stab him with the knife; he had thought that he was dead for sure. Speaking of which, he remembered that his neck had suddenly felt hot just now, and then a white light shot out. He hurriedly lowered his head and gripped the hot jade pendant.
Jiang Duo finally understood why he hadn’t died just now. It had to be this jade pendant. At the thought that this jade pendant had saved his life just now, Jiang Duo couldn’t wait to worship it. He was very excited.
He knew that this jade pendant was a good thing, but he didn’t expect it to be such a good treasure that could directly deal with that thing.
Moreover, he didn’t forget that before they went to Swan Lake, this jade pendant had also warned him not to go into the water. Thinking this, this jade pendant was more than just an ordinary treasure.
Jiang Duo made up his mind to continue befriending Master Chi after this. He would buy another awesome treasure like this, no matter how much it cost.
It wasn’t just Jiang Duo who realized at that moment that this jade pendant was extraordinary. The others also knew that the white light just now was probably from the jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck. The three of them deeply realized how good this jade pendant was.
Master Chi’s 30-million price tag really wasn’t expensive.
With a jade pendant like this, there was no need for them to be afraid of that ghost thing.
Xiong Luoying, Chang Hao and Xiao Ningjin stared at the jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck with inexplicably red eyes and faces filled with envy and hatred.
Their eyes never left the jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck.
In particular, there was some regret in Xiao Ningjin’s eyes. If he had been more sincere or offered a high price back then, Master Chi might not necessarily have refused to sell him the jade pendant.
He could only blame himself for being insincere back then.
Jiang Duo came back to his senses after his excitement, and saw the envious and hateful faces of his friends. He hurriedly covered the jade pendant.
At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. Their faces changed as a server suddenly came in. When he saw Jiang Duo, he said respectfully, “Young Master Jiang, I’m sorry. I knocked for a long time, but there was no answer. I thought something happened, so…”
Before he could finish speaking, the server saw a person and blood on the floor, and his face changed drastically as he suddenly screamed in horror, “Murder!”
