Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 14 The Vanished Ghost
"Ye Zhen?"

"Dahai City?"

the other side.

Li Hui stared in astonishment as he watched the young man, basking in the sunlight and spouting vulgarities, stride toward the terrifying man.

To be honest, Li Hui originally guessed that he would get off at either Xiaochun City or Dachang City, with Xiaochun City being the most likely. After all, he entered the real world after driving the bus through that endless graveyard, which was very similar to Yang Jian's first time getting off the bus in the original novel.

"and many more……"

"A cemetery? Fushouyuan... Dahai City?"

suddenly.

Li Hui seemed to realize something and came to his senses. His reaction was indeed somewhat different from Yang Jian's first time getting off the carriage in the original story.

In the original story, Yang Jian got off the supernatural bus after passing the endless graveyard, and the bus continued to travel for a long time before he got off. However, he entered the real city the moment he left the graveyard area.

Although the supernatural places are outside the real world, they are attached to reality. Each supernatural place has a location that connects to the real world.

Given the eeriness of the supernatural bus, which can travel around the world in a very short time, and considering that the bus traveled for a long time after Yang Jian passed by the cemetery in the original work, it is not difficult to understand why the drop-off point was from the Endless Cemetery, which is equivalent to Fushou Garden in Dahai City, to Xiaochun City.

Just as Li Hui was pondering, Ye Zhen walked to the shop where the vengeful ghost he had punched away was located.

This is a fruit shop. It's only a little past five in the morning. The shop door is not open yet. The wall is cracked and has a human-shaped dent.

At this moment, the vengeful ghost was embedded in the wall, motionless, seemingly dormant, as if suppressed by the supernatural power contained in Ye Zhen's punch.

Ye Zhen's fist harbors a terrifying vengeful ghost. Ordinary ghosts hit by his punch will immediately be sent flying and then subjected to supernatural suppression, unable to move for a short time. If it is a broken vengeful ghost, Ye Zhen's punch can even quell the supernatural event instantly.

"With such meager abilities, how dare you show your face in Dahai City? What a disgrace."

Looking at the vengeful ghost inside the wall, Ye Zhen continued to ramble on, reaching out towards it, preparing to take it back and imprison it in the golden container.

"what?"

However, just as Ye Zhen's hand was about to touch the terrifying man's body, a bizarre scene unfolded.

The terrifying man, whose body was embedded in the wall and who hadn't reacted at all, suddenly disappeared, leaving only a human-shaped recess in his place.

"Such trivial skills, how dare you show them off to an expert?" Seeing this, Ye Zhen was full of disdain, still full of confidence. A supernatural aura appeared around him, and the cold aura made the already chilly morning even colder.

At this moment, he activated the Ghost Realm!

"Not really?"

A moment later, Ye Zhen's face showed surprise and doubt for the first time.

His ghost realm is extremely terrifying; as long as that vengeful ghost is still nearby, he will definitely be able to find it.

However, at this moment, under Ye Zhen's investigation, the figure of that terrifying man had indeed disappeared, and there were no traces around.

"impossible!"

"If word gets out that a mere brat could slip through my fingers, where will my name, Ye Wudi, stand? Wouldn't I be ridiculed?"

Thinking of this, Ye Zhen connected with the supernatural power of his scapegoat, instantly expanding the range of his detection countless times. Nothing that happened in Dahai City could escape Ye Zhen's 'eyes'.

In this situation, as long as the vengeful ghost is still in the city, he will discover it immediately, leaving it nowhere to hide.

This is also why Ye Zhen was able to rush over to Dahai City as soon as the vengeful ghost appeared.

.........

Time goes back a few minutes.

On the outskirts of Dahai City, there is a beautiful and tranquil private estate.

The private estate features a retro style in its architecture and facilities, complete with artificial hills, streams, flower beds, lawns, pavilions, and more.

In the master bedroom of the manor, there is a huge LCD screen playing a domestic animation. Ye Zhen, dressed in cartoon pajamas, sits on the bed, holding a bottle of milk, watching the animation and drinking the milk at the same time.

As the latest episode of the anime reached its end, Ye Zhen finished the milk he was holding at almost the same time.

Followed by.

Just as Ye Zhen was about to switch to another anime to continue watching, he seemed to sense something, turned his head to look towards the city center of Dahai, his expression turned cold, and he said:

"They're really courting death! How dare a vengeful ghost cause trouble in Dahai City!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Zhen disappeared from the master bedroom. The only things left in the room were the still-on LCD screen and the empty milk carton on the bedside table, indicating what had just happened.

……

……

"Not really?"

Urban area.

Standing outside the fruit shop, Ye Zhen frowned slightly.

Even with the help of the scapegoat's supernatural abilities, they still couldn't find the vengeful ghost. It was as if the ghost had vanished into thin air, and what's even more absurd is that it slipped away right in front of him.

Who can bear this?

Where does he put his reputation as Asia's number one ghost tamer go?

In fact, Ye Zhen wasn't the only one who was surprised. Li Hui, who was not far away, was also astonished. He hadn't expected that the terrifying man he had ignored would disappear so strangely right before his and Ye Zhen's eyes.

"If that vengeful ghost followed the messenger all the way from the Ghost Post Office onto the vehicle, doesn't that mean the messengers who were with it encountered a death mission similar to the Ghost Post Office's purge?"

"And their mailing address..."

Li Hui remembered that before the bus turned off, the female messenger had said that their delivery point was the next stop on the bus.

Li Hui had somewhat forgotten whether, according to the Ghost Post Office's criteria, the ghost bus stalling counted as a stop.

If we're going to calculate it that way, wouldn't that mean their mail delivery address is that rice paddy full of scarecrows? What's the difference between that and telling them to just die?
If the engine stalls, then the next stop for the haunted bus will most likely be another equally dangerous and eerie place.

Because Li Hui chose to drive a bus when he was in that rice paddy, and took a dark path that existed in the ghost realm, changing the bus's original route, Li Hui was not sure which stop the bus would stop at next.

Even the time Li Hui got off the bus, he voluntarily stepped on the brakes to stop the vehicle; it wasn't at the original bus stop...

"Judging from this, that terrifying man is indeed extraordinary. He evaded the pursuit within the Ghost Post Office. It's likely that this delivery mission was intended to trap him in some supernatural place, and those messengers were just cannon fodder."

"Or perhaps the Ghost Post Office wasn't sure which of the people was the vengeful ghost, so they arranged for all five of them to be together..."

Li Hui secretly speculated.

He didn't know the specific truth, because he lacked key clues and could only speculate on a reasonable possibility based on the existing information.

"However, the fact that the vengeful ghost could make Ye Zhen 'suffer a setback' means that its own level of terror is definitely not low. I just don't know what its killing pattern is. After all, although Ye Zhen's title of 'Asia's No. 1 Ghost Tamer' is a little exaggerated, his strength is indeed very strong."

While pondering, Li Hui turned his gaze back to Ye Zhen.

The current timeline is in the early stages. Looking at the world, among the new generation of ghost riders, Li Hui believes that Ye Zhen's strength is enough to rank in the top five, or even the top three. Among them, the one ranked first is undoubtedly the one from Da Dong City!

Of course, the so-called "top five of the new generation" does not include the older generation. Leaving aside the ghost tamers of the Republic of China era, even Zhang Xianguang's generation can be considered the older generation.

Next.

Just as Li Hui was about to see what Ye Zhen was planning to do, a sentence that came out of the other party's mouth made him freeze instantly.

Ye Zhen then spoke:
