Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus
Chapter 210 The Graveyard Ambiguity
Chapter 210 The Graveyard Ambiguity
Lin Shan drove the bus through most of the city and finally stopped in a place that was a little remote from the city center.
At this moment, they were in front of the Fushouyuan Cemetery. At the entrance of the cemetery, there was a tall signboard with the three large characters "Fushouyuan" written on it.
"This is it."
Lin Shan parked the bus in an open space outside the entrance of Fushouyuan Cemetery, then opened the door and got off, looking through the entrance into the cemetery.
Through the entrance to Fushou Garden, you can see rows of neatly arranged graves nestled within the cemetery.
Surprisingly.
Looking inside from here, the interior of Fushou Garden is not the eerie scene of scattered graves that people imagine. On the contrary, the roads are clean and tidy, and flowers and plants are everywhere. The landscaping is very well done, making people who don't know the place think they have come to the entrance of a park.
"Let's go and see where that No. 66 cemetery is. Everyone should finish delivering the message as soon as possible and leave. Don't stay in Dahai City for too long. The way those people treated us earlier was a bit strange, and it gave me a bad feeling."
Lin Shan addressed the other messengers who were getting off the vehicle behind him.
“Okay, then let’s find someone to ask where Cemetery No. 66 is.” At this point, all the messengers on the bus had gotten off, and one of them suggested this.
Large cemeteries typically have managers, especially cemeteries like Fushouyuan, located in Dahai City.
After all, Fushouyuan is located in Dahai City, on the outskirts of the city, where land is extremely valuable. How could a cemetery like this not be guarded?
soon.
Lin Shan and his group found a middle-aged man dressed as a security guard in the guardhouse at the entrance of the cemetery.
"Hello, are you here to pay respects at the grave? You look unfamiliar. May I ask which grave owner you are?"
The middle-aged security guard in the gatehouse stood up and asked Lin Shan and the others.
Upon seeing this, Lin Shan and his group immediately inquired about the location of grave number 66. While asking, they also took out a pack of cigarettes and a few red bills from their pockets.
"Grave No. 66?"
After thinking for a moment, the middle-aged security guard said, "I can't quite remember the exact location of the graves, but all our cemeteries are numbered. Graves below number 100 should be in Cemetery No. 1, which is the one on the east side."
"Once you're inside, just follow the left-hand path. There are signs along the way; just follow them."
As he spoke.
The middle-aged security guard smiled as he accepted the cigarettes and money that Lin Shan handed him.
"Okay, thank you." Lin Shan greeted them and then followed the group of messengers into Fushou Garden, heading towards the location of Tomb No. 1 according to the road signs.
Soon Lin Shan and his group arrived at the location of Cemetery No. 1. One tombstone after another came into view, starting with No. 1, then No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, No. 5... and so on.
After traversing most of Cemetery No. 1, Lin Shan and his group successfully located Cemetery No. 66.
"Lin Shan, don't you feel our operation has gone a little too smoothly?" Just then, Lucy, who had been following behind Lin Shan without saying a word, suddenly spoke up:
"We found Tomb 66 so easily! The difficulty is completely disproportionate to the risks represented by the red letters. In fact, judging from the current situation, it's much easier than many of the yellow letters on the fourth floor of the post office!"
"Moreover, this tomb looks like it has been built for a long time, and it is most likely just an ordinary corpse inside, not a vengeful ghost. Because if it were a vengeful ghost, it would have already escaped. It is impossible that nothing has happened in this cemetery and there are still security guards safely staying here."
It was a very reasonable deduction, and the other messengers listening nearby nodded in agreement, clearly also agreeing with Lucy's point of view, believing that the tomb most likely contained an ordinary corpse.
Lin Shan glanced at Lucy and said, "Indeed, what you said makes a lot of sense, but the loopholes in the Ghost Post Office are obviously not so easy to exploit. If the corpse in the tomb is really fine, then the danger most likely comes from the outside world."
"You mean..."
Upon hearing this, Lucy's expression changed, and she immediately looked around at her surroundings.
"That's right, just as you thought!"
Lin Shan continued, "Currently, a large-scale paranormal event is clearly occurring in Dahai City. If I'm not mistaken, the vengeful ghost will be lured here before we successfully deliver the letter to the owner of this tomb."
"It's even possible that the vengeful ghost was actually the owner of Tomb No. 66!"
"Perhaps the person buried in this tomb was a powerful ghost tamer in life. After death, the vengeful spirit revived and escaped using the Ghost Domain. That's why the tomb looks undamaged, but it's actually empty inside."
"..."
"No way?!"
As Lin Shan recounted the story, the expressions of the dozen or so messengers all changed, and none of them were able to remain calm.
The ghosts in the Ghost Domain can cover the entire Dahai City, and their terror is unimaginable. If they were to confront ghosts of this strength, all of them would be in mortal danger.
However, this also seems to indicate that this mission is not simple, since if that's the case, it does match the danger represented by the red letter.
"We'll find out soon enough whether it is or not. Right now, the most important thing is to dig up the grave and see if the body is still inside the coffin."
talking.
Lin Shan carefully examined the tombstone in front of him.
Luo Hongmei.
It is the name of the person who lived in this tomb.
There is also a portrait of the deceased.
The portrait was a black and white photo of a middle-aged woman. She was not particularly outstanding in appearance; in fact, she was quite ordinary. However, she was very recognizable, with a large, auspicious mole below the corner of her mouth.
"That's right, let's dig up the grave first. Regardless of the truth, now that we've found the grave at the mailing address, we should dig it up no matter what."
Other messengers chimed in.
Immediately, several people took out toolboxes that they had prepared beforehand. The boxes were fully equipped with all kinds of tools. If this were placed deep in the mountains and forests, people would definitely think that they were a group of tomb raiders.
The messengers then began to dig up Tomb No. 66 in front of them.
"So these are the people you mentioned from that special place, Li Wudi? Digging up other people's graves, and it sounds like they're going to deliver that letter to the dead in the grave. Li Wudi, are you sure they're not a bunch of mentally unstable people?"
at the same time.
Two figures floated above Fushou Garden. One was Li Hui, and the other was Ye Zhen, who had just spoken.
The two of them were floating there, but neither Lin Shan and his group who were digging graves in Fushou Garden nor the security guards at the entrance noticed them, as if they couldn't see them at all.
And that is indeed the case.
Under the influence of Li Hui's ghost domain, let alone Lin Shan and his group, even if a group of truly top-notch ghost controllers from the supernatural world came, they might not be able to detect the two of them.
"Ye Zhen, don't rush to conclusions. You'll find out as you continue watching," Li Hui said calmly from the side.
"Then I'd like to know what other changes might occur." Ye Zhen sneered, looking completely unconcerned and disdainful of the messengers on the ground.
But that's right.
Even if there were true ghost tamers among Lin Shan and his group, their strength was not enough to make Ye Zhen take them seriously. In fact, in Ye Zhen's opinion, they were not even as good as A Wu, and at most they were only at the level of Luo Su Yi and Lin Luo Mei.
the most important is.
Ye Zhen had already secretly used the supernatural power of the scapegoat to test the waters.
He can be sure.
The grave contained the body of an ordinary person, without any supernatural abilities. Under such circumstances, sending a letter could cause unexpected changes.
Anyway, Ye Zhen really didn't believe it.
It was only because of his trust in Li Hui that Ye Zhen didn't let himself be completely certain, and planned to wait and see how things went before making a decision.
Li Hui, who was standing to the side, also had some doubts.
His ghostly aura encompassed everything, and he also possessed the supernatural abilities of a scapegoat at this moment. How could he not know what Ye Zhen could perceive? It was precisely because of this that he was even more puzzled.
In the original story, Yang Jian and his group's delivery of a letter turned the corpse of an ordinary person, namely Old Lady Liu, into a vengeful ghost. So what kind of changes will Lin Shan and his group's delivery of a letter cause?
Could it be that the ordinary corpse in that tomb will also turn into a vengeful ghost, or be replaced by a vengeful ghost?
This is what Li Hui wants to know.
So he brought Ye Zhen with him in person.
"And the name of the tomb's occupant..."
At this moment, Li Hui turned his attention to the tombstone that had been overturned by Lin Shan and other messengers.
"Luo Hongmei, there's nothing wrong with the name itself, but her surname is Luo, and the place where she was buried overlaps with a tomb in a haunted place, which is quite interesting."
With the intervention of a supernatural force on the bus.
The world in Li Hui's vision had changed. The boundary between the real world and the supernatural world had been seen through, and a supernatural world filled with coldness and eeriness appeared before his eyes.
In that haunted place, there were mounds of varying sizes. Some mounds had tombstones in front of them, while others were just raised mounds of earth. Some mounds had been dug up, leaving only sunken pits inside.
As far as the eye could see, the cemetery stretched as far as the eye could see, with nothing but mounds of graves, seemingly without end.
The strangest thing is...
In the Endless Graveyard, there is a grave mound whose location overlaps with the grave that Lin Shan and others are currently digging in the real world.
There was no tombstone on the grave, so Li Hui didn't know whether it was a man or a woman buried inside, but he was certain that it was not an ordinary corpse, but a vengeful ghost!
"We've finally dug it open."
At this time.
After Lin Shan and other messengers worked hard to dig, the grave number 66 in front of them was completely opened, revealing the coffin inside.
"Open the coffin."
Lin Shan spoke to the messenger beside him, then became alert. He took out the red letter, intending to shove it into the hands of the deceased the moment the coffin was opened, hoping to complete the delivery and then use the Ghost Post Office's supernatural powers to leave.
"Ok."
The other messengers responded.
Then everyone began to open the coffin.
However, at that very moment, the expressions of Li Hui and Ye Zhen, who were floating above Fushou Garden, changed simultaneously.
In their perception.
As Lin Shan took out the red letter and the other messengers prepared to open the coffin, the woman's corpse inside the coffin mysteriously disappeared, which seemed very strange and abrupt.
"Interesting. I, Ye, actually misjudged this. This tomb doesn't contain an ordinary corpse?"
Ye Zhen suddenly became interested.
The sudden disappearance of the corpse only piqued his interest further, which meant that Li Hui was right; the matter was not as simple as it seemed.
This is exactly what Ye Zhen hoped to see.
"Li Wudi, you said those people down there come from a special place. What is that place?" Ye Zhen asked Li Hui beside him.
"Ghost Post Office!"
Li Hui said, "If you're interested, you can go to Jianshe Road in Dahan City. There's an unfinished building there. With your abilities, finding and entering the Ghost Post Office shouldn't be difficult."
"Is that so?"
"After this matter is over, I, Ye, will have to go and see that ghost post office you mentioned, to see just how special it is that even you, Li Wudi, would praise it."
While talking.
Ye Zhen's gaze fell once again on Lin Shan and the others below.
Li Hui, standing to the side, was searching.
His ghost realm encompassed everything, yet even so, he couldn't figure out how the corpse in the coffin had disappeared. There was no trace of it, and even now, he still couldn't find any trace of the corpse. It was as if it had vanished into thin air and didn't exist in his ghost realm.
"Lin Shan, it seems you were right. Our mission to deliver the message won't be easy this time. The body inside the coffin has disappeared. What should we do now?"
Looking at the coffin that had been opened but was empty, the messengers spoke with grim expressions.
"Could it be that, as you say, the vengeful spirit that is causing this paranormal event in Dahai City is the owner of this tomb?"
Some people speculate that this is the case.
"But if that's the case, what should we do?"
"Are we supposed to find the source of that vengeful spirit and deliver the letter to it? What's the difference between that and sending us to our deaths?"
Immediately, all the messengers were in a panic, their faces turning extremely grim, as if they had lost their own mothers.
However, they did not notice.
At some point, things that weren't originally there appeared in Fushou Garden.
They were mounds of earth, looking like graves, exuding a cold and gloomy aura, along with the original smell of soil and a strange, fishy, rotten odor.
