Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 137 The Red Light Reappears, the Truth Behind the Cellphone Tattoo
Zhang Dong's tone was cold and authoritative, carrying an absolute sense of power; his very words were meant to send the man on his way.

And with his gesture of raising his hand towards Li Hui, Li Hui trembled with fear, terrified that he would be wiped out at any moment.

However, Zhang Dong paid no attention to Li Hui's thoughts and started moving the next moment. His withered hands began to wave, as if he were saying goodbye to Li Hui.

With Zhang Dong's actions.

A terrifying supernatural phenomenon began to emerge, and Li Hui's consciousness instantly became blurred. Everything in his field of vision was rapidly disappearing, or more accurately, his consciousness was disappearing, being erased by the supernatural force controlled by Zhang Dong.

This scene is terrifying.

Neither the supernatural bus nor the ghost painting could withstand Zhang Dong's supernatural attack. In fact, both abilities went silent at this moment. Li Hui, whose consciousness was gradually fading, could no longer feel the supernatural power of the bus and the ghost painting, as if they did not exist at all.

Am I going to die?

Completely powerless to resist, Li Hui's disappearance seemed inevitable. Before his consciousness completely vanished, this sentence surfaced in his mind.

However, just as Li Hui's consciousness was about to completely disappear, something strange happened.

A dazzling crimson light appeared and enveloped his body. At the same time, his previously blurred consciousness regained its clarity.

Strangely, Li Hui lost control of his body after regaining consciousness, just like when he first replicated the supernatural phenomenon with his phone tattoo when he first transmigrated. Everything except his consciousness was frozen.

But this stillness seemed to apply only to Li Hui himself; Zhang Dong, on the other side of the courtyard, seemed completely unaffected, his hand still waving in the air in front of him.

With each wave of his withered hand, the red light enveloping Li Hui's body would dissipate a little, but it would soon become stronger again, as if a continuous stream of eerie red light was surging out.

For a while.

The two sides reached a stalemate.

But this balance was soon broken.

The phone tattoo that was originally etched on the back of Li Hui's hand suddenly changed. All six boxes on the phone screen disappeared, and instead, Li Hui's photo, which was used as the wallpaper, appeared.

Then a bizarre scene unfolded.

The person in the photo seemed to be alive; he even moved his eyes and looked coldly at Zhang Dong.

At the same time, the scarlet light intensified and began to extend towards Zhang Dong's body.

"Is this... a replication of Zhangdong's supernatural phenomena?"

Although Li Hui was unable to control his body and stood motionless, his consciousness was exceptionally clear, and his vision was unaffected. He witnessed the red light enveloping Zhang Dong's body.

Seeing this, Li Hui was instantly excited.

It's important to know that Zhang Dong's supernatural abilities are among the most powerful in the novel "Mysterious Revival." If Li Hui could truly replicate his supernatural abilities, he would feel invincible, unmatched by anyone, not even the other top ghost-controlling masters of the Republic of China era!

But Li Hui's excitement vanished in an instant, leaving only confusion and bewilderment in his mind.

The crimson light vanished before it could even get close to Zhang Dong, as if it had never existed at all.

"The replica failed?"

The situation before him left Li Hui utterly astonished.

And whether it was his imagination or not, Li Hui noticed a hint of... a smile in Zhang Dong's cold and dignified eyes?
next moment.

Zhang Dong became completely serious.

He waved his hand again at the location where Li Hui was.

With his first wave of his hand, the red light that was spreading outwards stopped instantly. Then, with his second wave of his hand, most of the scarlet light enveloping Li Hui's body disappeared.

When Zhang Dong waved his hand for the third time, the eerie red light that enveloped Li Hui's body completely disappeared. But strangely, this time Li Hui's consciousness did not become blurred and subdued as it had at the beginning; he remained conscious.

"Are you kidding me? Zhang Dong completely suppressed your ability to tattoo with your phone?"

Li Hui, who witnessed this scene firsthand, was shocked. He couldn't understand why the cheat system that brought him to this world not only failed to replicate Zhang Dong's abilities but was also completely suppressed.

However, having lost control of his body, Li Hui couldn't even express the questions in his heart; he could only watch helplessly as everything happened.

At this moment, Zhang Dong on the other side still did not stop what he was doing, and his thin hand waved again.

With the fourth swing of his hand, the once crystal-clear wallpaper photo on the back of Li Hui's hand became blurry, and the photo itself became incomplete, with half of 'Li Hui' missing from the picture.

At the same time, a shrill and piercing sound came from the back of Li Hui's hand, like the scream of a vengeful ghost.

Then Zhang Dong waved his hand again, and another part of the person in the wallpaper photo disappeared, and the photo as a whole became even more blurry.

And so it continued.

When Zhang Dong waved his hand for the seventh time, the photo on the phone screen disappeared completely, as if it had been erased from the world without leaving a trace.

Then the entire Android phone tattoo screen flickered a few times, and then the screen changed back to a six-box display, like six app icons.

But at this point, only the first two boxes contain something: the first box contains a model of a dilapidated bus, and the second contains a strange oil painting.

"That's okay for now."

At that moment, Zhang Dong's voice rang out.

Along with his words came his withered, thin hand.

Meanwhile, Li Hui suddenly realized that he could move again, and control of his body had returned to his own hands...

.........

at the same time.

Headquarters of the Ghost Riders in Dajing City.

Inside the office in the experimental building, only Wang Xiaoming and Yang Jian were present. Even Li Jun was just standing at the office door without going in.

At this moment, Wang Xiaoming was sitting in a chair behind his desk, examining a brown leather piece of paper in his hand, while Yang Jian was sitting in a chair on the other side of the room, waiting.

obviously.

Wang Xiaoming and Yang Jian had reached an agreement on their "deal." Wang Xiaoming successfully obtained the human skin paper from Yang Jian and watched it for ten minutes, for which he paid a certain amount of compensation.

"So this is how it can be done..."

As the words kept appearing on the human skin paper, a strange expression appeared on Wang Xiaoming's face, leaving Yang Jian, who was standing next to him, unable to guess what Wang Xiaoming had seen on the human skin paper.

But one thing is certain: Wang Xiaoming obtained a lot of information from the human skin paper, because Yang Jian glanced at it and saw that the human skin paper was covered with dense writing.

Due to the distance and angle, he couldn't see clearly what was written on the parchment, but he vaguely saw the word 'experiment'. Therefore, Yang Jian guessed that the parchment was related to some kind of experiment.

But it's not over yet.

Soon the parchment was covered with writing, but then the writing disappeared again, and new writing began to appear, covering the old writing.

This scene surprised Yang Jian greatly. He knew that he had to use coercion and inducement to get information from the human skin paper before it would cooperate. But now, facing Wang Xiaoming, the human skin paper seemed to be showing its value without reservation.

"Could it be that the human skin paper thinks Wang Xiaoming, as an ordinary person, is easier to control, so it wants to take this opportunity to make Wang Xiaoming stay with it forever?"

Yang Jian thought to himself.

But then he sneered inwardly, thinking that the paper-skin was too far-fetched. Someone with Wang Xiaoming's high IQ was not so easy to fool. In fact, this time the paper-skin might lose both its wife and its army.

But not necessarily.

At this moment, Yang Jian realized Wang Xiaoming's identity.

Being called 'Professor Wang', Wang Xiaoming naturally takes his experiments very seriously. If he suddenly sees something like human skin paper that can 'predict the future' and provide 'solutions', he might actually be tempted.

Although the information provided by the parchment contained some traps, some 'clever' people always believed that they could perfect the solutions provided by the parchment and thus avoid the potential traps.

While thinking.

Yang Jian checked the time and realized that the ten minutes Wang Xiaoming had mentioned had already passed, so he immediately got up and walked towards Wang Xiaoming.

"Is it time?"

Noticing Yang Jian's movements, Wang Xiaoming frowned slightly, and after glancing at the clock hanging on the wall, he realized what was going on.

He then gathered the brown parchment together and put it back into the golden box on his desk, saying:
"It really is a strange thing. Is everything it says true? The way you hanged yourself came from this piece of paper. Was it the solution it provided?"

"That's right, my previous suicide attempt was indeed guided by information from the human skin paper."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian did not choose to hide it, but generously admitted it, and then he continued:
"However, the information provided by this thing is very problematic, and it hides a trap. Just as you know, my resurrection is not perfect, and my body has developed problems."

As he said this, Yang Jian stared intently at Wang Xiaoming, a hint of warning in his eyes, reminding him not to completely trust the information on the human skin paper.

"I see."

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoming did not proceed with the issue of the human skin paper as Yang Jian had expected. Instead, he handed over the golden box without hesitation.

See this.

Yang Jian was somewhat surprised.

Meanwhile, Wang Xiaoming seemed to have noticed Yang Jian's inner doubts and said to himself, "This thing is really strange. It seems to know everything. To be honest, at one point I even wanted to keep it."

"But some things can't be known simply by knowing them. As for the authenticity of the information on the parchment, let time be the judge."

Done.

The golden box was also handed over to Yang Jian.

"Let time tell?"

Yang Jian was taken aback upon hearing this, but quickly recovered and stuffed the golden box containing the human skin paper back into his backpack, saying, "Don't forget what you promised me."

"And my health, you said you would try to help me. I will be staying in Dajing City for the time being, so please let me know if there is any progress."

Done.

After receiving a response from Wang Xiaoming, Yang Jian left the experimental building and then returned to the Ping An Hotel in a private car.

.........

the other side.

An old house from the Republican era in a haunted place.

Li Hui looked at Zhang Dong, who was sitting in a black armchair, with a complicated expression. His eyes flashed with doubt, shock, contemplation, and even fear.

Based on Zhang Dong's account, Li Hui had a general understanding of the ins and outs of Zhang Dong's sudden attack on him.

According to Zhang Dong, the cell phone tattoo on the back of Li Hui's hand is actually a very special and terrifying ghost. It is capable of replicating other supernatural abilities and gradually replacing Li Hui's consciousness to take control of his body.

This is an unconventional resurrection of a vengeful ghost!

If Li Hui ignores this and remains oblivious, he will eventually be replaced by that vengeful ghost. That's why Zhang Dong made his move just now. It seemed like he was going to kill Li Hui, but in reality, he was going to eliminate that vengeful ghost and send it on its way!

This was the final result after Qin Lao and Zhang Dong discussed it. Zhang Dong would take action to resolve the hidden dangers of mobile phone tattoos. As for whether Li Hui could completely control mobile phone tattoos afterward, that would depend on himself.

After all, the ghost tamers of the Republic of China era did not want to interfere too much with the growth path of modern ghost tamers. Zhang Dong's intervention to erase the vengeful spirit consciousness of the phone tattoo was already an exception.

"How is this possible? A phone tattoo is a ghost? But it came from Earth with me. Could it be that there are vengeful ghosts on Earth that are connected to this world?"

Even now, Li Hui still finds it hard to believe.

But then he remembered the scene from before: the eerie red light tried to replicate Zhang Dong, but ultimately failed, disappearing the moment it got close to Zhang Dong.

This reminded Li Hui of the description of Zhang Dong's abilities in the original work, which stated that no supernatural power could affect him and would be directly erased, and even the ability to summon souls would be ineffective.

There's also the rule of the novel's world of mysterious resurrection: only vengeful ghosts can fight against other vengeful ghosts!

The more you think.

Li Hui's mind became increasingly confused.

He even wondered if he was dreaming, but the real touch kept telling him that this was definitely not a dream, but the real world!
"That tattoo is quite powerful. If you develop it further and use it properly, you could surpass us in a very short time."

At this time.

Zhang Dong, who was sitting in the armchair, spoke.
