The Mysterious Resurrection

Chapter 204 What happened to Zhao Jian

Baiyang Village, this is the place where the second stage of the ghost sacrifice ceremony will be held. Wen Zhong only knows the name of this one, and he can say that he doesn't know any other clues about Baiyang Village.

Through the information network of Liangyiguan, he learned that there is indeed a place called Baiyang Village in reality, but it has been abandoned many years ago.

In order to collect information about Baiyang Village, he commissioned the ghost master Zhao Jian he met in the ghost forest to investigate the real Baiyang Village, trying to find information about the ghost sacrifice ceremony.

At this moment, Zhao Jian is in the abandoned Baiyang Village, which he arrived three days ago.

Since the village has been abandoned, and it is surrounded by dirt roads and dense forests, Zhao Jian can only rely on his legs to get here.

The village looked very desolate, and there was an extremely faint rotten smell in the air.

Zhao Jian tried to contact Wen Zhong as soon as he arrived in the village, but the strange thing was that his satellite phone had no signal here, and he seemed to be isolated.

Perhaps because there is a water pool in the back of the village, the whole village is very cold and humid, and the dilapidated houses around are covered with dead vines, the whole village is very strange.

During the three days of this investigation, he didn't encounter anything unusual, except for the occasional sound of bubbling bubbles in the village every night near the wee hours of the morning.

At the beginning, he thought that there was something abnormal in the pool in the back mountain, but on the third day, he squatted in the woods in the back mountain all night but found nothing.

Now that the time has come, everything is normal, and Zhao Jian is now searching for useful information from house to house. After three days of observation, he is convinced that the village is very safe.

Of course, only for now.

"Damn it, how many houses have I found here? Why is there no useful information at all? Could it be that the people who live here don't have the habit of keeping diaries?" Zhao Jian couldn't help feeling distressed looking at the debris piled up under his feet.

Half of the ground is full of cooking tools such as pots, stoves and even firewood sticks.

The other half are filled with tattered old clothes that cannot be mended anymore, and cleaning tools such as rags. It can be seen that the residents who used to live here are very simple.

But to Zhao Jian, this pile of scrap metal was of no value other than hindering his investigation.

"I don't know what's going on with Da'an. I haven't contacted them for so long, and I don't know if they will worry about me." Zhao Jian thought while searching for the sundries.

Of course, he didn't know that Da'an City was still in dire straits at the moment. If Zhao Jian knew, then he would be extremely glad that he was not involved in it.

The whole Baiyang Village was eerily quiet, except for the bumping sound of Zhao Jian alone when he was rummaging through the sundries.

The dim light was slightly swayed by the breeze, and the sky outside the window gradually darkened. Looking at the time, it should be close to evening. The sun had set, leaving only a ray of afterglow falling on Baiyang Village.

Seeing this, Zhao Jian skillfully took out two candles for lighting that were said to never be extinguished from the large mountaineering bag he was carrying on his back.

This thing is his own.

Whenever midnight fell, he would turn off the lights and light candles to be on the safe side. This was a habit of his, which had something to do with a supernatural event he had experienced before.

Looking at the Baiyang Village gradually shrouded in darkness, Zhao Jian habitually lit candles to continue looking for clues, but he suddenly felt that something was different tonight.

The usually mild and imperceptible rotten smell suddenly became stronger, as if a rotten corpse had been moved to the air vent, and the weird rotten smell swept the entire Baiyang Village.

"What's going on here?" Zhao Jian frowned, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes. If counting today, he had been here for four full days, and this was the first time something had changed.

Although he didn't know whether this change was good or bad, at least he didn't have to rummage around in the garbage dumps anymore. In addition to a trace of surprise, there was more excitement in his heart.

"It's finally something different for me. It's interesting." Zhao Jian pursed his chapped lips and walked out of the room. He was going to follow the wind to find the source of the rotten smell.

There are abnormalities around for no reason, which is often a sign before the occurrence of supernatural events.

Of course, the purpose of his coming here is not to deal with supernatural events, but to collect all information related to Baiyang Village. The current anomaly is an excellent opportunity to collect information.

Soon, Zhao Jian followed the rancid smell all the way to the corner of the village, where there was a huge water tank, covered with a wooden board, and a stone was pressed on the wooden board, which was still shaking non-stop.

Weird, very weird, Zhao Jian frowned and took a few steps back, looking at the water tank with fear in his eyes.

"What's hiding inside? Could it be a ghost?" Zhao Jian stared at the water tank and analyzed, "It doesn't look like that. If it was a ghost, how could it be so easily sealed by a water tank."

The water tank is the most common large black tank in ordinary farmhouses. It is usually filled with clean water for cleaning or rinsing furniture and the like, and no matter how you look at it, the water tank does not look like it is made of gold. .

If it is said that a terrifying ghost is imprisoned inside, then it is impossible that it cannot even get rid of a water tank, but if it is said that the imprisoned inside is a living person, I am afraid it cannot be justified.

First of all, oxygen is a big problem. The stones pressed on the water tank have not been moved. It is obvious that the water tank should have been stored here for at least a year, or even longer.

Is it possible for a living person to survive in it for a year? The answer is of course no.

"It's really evil, so don't play it dead."

Zhao Jian kept backing away, until the weird water tank disappeared from his sight, and he was relieved.

It would be too bad if the balance in the village was disrupted because of his hand movements. He came here to find clues, but he didn't come here to die.

Suddenly, he remembered the sound of bubbles that must appear every night. Could the source of this sound be the water tank?
Thinking of this, Zhao Jian couldn't help feeling a little creepy. It turned out that the horror had been hidden by his side for so long, but he didn't notice it at all.

Speaking of which, he has only controlled one ghost, and he has not yet gotten rid of the threat brought by the ghost's recovery, so he must be more cautious.
