Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 229 White Water Town

"It shouldn't be a ghost tamer either. If it were, it would be impossible for the ghost eye not to detect it. So the more likely possibility is that it's a vengeful ghost that can't be seen in the usual way, or even the supernatural abilities of the ghost eye can't detect it."

After some thought.

Yang Jian came to this conclusion.

Of course, it's also possible that a powerful ghost tamer is secretly watching him, but the other party has the ability to evade the supernatural detection of ghost eyes, which is why he hasn't been discovered.

Yang Jian was certainly not the arrogant type.

After becoming a Ghost Master, as his strength and knowledge increased, Yang Jian increasingly felt that the supernatural world was too deep, and there were quite a few Ghost Masters stronger than him.

Even setting aside Li Hui, who is currently recognized by the entire headquarters as the 'strongest ghost tamer in the world,' there are still many ghost tamers who are no weaker than Yang Jian, or even stronger than him. It is not surprising that some of them can evade his ghost eye detection.

The only thing Yang Jian couldn't understand was...

He had neither offended such a powerful ghost tamer nor had anything he wanted to scheme against. Why would the other party risk offending the entire headquarters to deal with him, the person in charge of Dachang City?
Or perhaps the ghost tamer who was secretly watching him was just passing by and happened to bump into him. Yang Jian noticed him while he was looking him over, and then quickly retreated.

The possibility of this is extremely small.

Therefore, Yang Jian preferred to believe that some unknown vengeful ghost had appeared around him, and that the one who had just been spying on him was that vengeful ghost.

"Could it be...that ghost?"

suddenly.

A figure appeared in Yang Jian's mind.

It was a vengeful ghost whose appearance Yang Jian never knew. He was wearing a black suit and always held a blood-stained old newspaper in his hand to cover his face.

It was the newspaper ghost who had lived with him for a long time, who had the ability to modify other people's memories, and who was suspected of possessing the wisdom of a living person.

The ghost's supernatural power could conveniently obscure the supernatural power of the ghost's eyes. If it really is that ghost, then there is a real possibility that it could evade the ghost's eyes and secretly keep an eye on him.

"But is that vengeful ghost related to my deceased father?" Yang Jian frowned as he thought of the newspaper ghost.

At this moment, he was unaware that the newspaper ghost had already been dealt with by Li Hui. The newspaper in his hand had been taken away, and even the vengeful ghost itself had been imprisoned in his ghost domain.

"I forgot to ask him in that nightmare world. Although in a sense that person is not my father, but a product of some kind of supernatural collision, he does indeed have my father's memories from his previous life..."

"Speaking of the Nightmare World, I wonder how Li Hui and his team's operation is progressing."

At this moment, Yang Jian looked towards a direction outside the city, the direction of his hometown, Meishan County.

"To let a dog replace a vengeful ghost as the source of supernatural phenomena, I guess only top-tier ghost controllers like Li Hui would dare to try, because they have the resources to make mistakes and possess the power to suppress everything!"

to be frank.

Yang Jian was quite envious of Li Hui's strength.

If he possessed that invincible strength, how could he possibly be overwhelmed by some supernatural events?

Think of this.

Yang Jian looked at his hand.

In his hand was a golden container the size of an urn, inside which was imprisoned a vengeful ghost he had just dealt with.

"Why is it that Li Hui, as a city leader, can be a hands-off manager, running around the world while Hangzhou City remains completely problem-free?"

Recalling what he had experienced after becoming the head of Dachang City, Yang Jian's heart was filled with resentment.

There was one thing he couldn't understand either.

So how come there are so many paranormal events within the jurisdiction of Dachang City?

It seemed that supernatural events would occur every now and then, until a large-scale S-level supernatural starving ghost incident broke out. Most of the vengeful ghosts in Dachang City were devoured by the starving ghosts, and the city finally became peaceful for a while.

However, only a short time has passed since the starving ghost incident, and supernatural events are already starting to emerge in Dachang City again, which is giving Yang Jian, the person in charge of the city, a real headache.

"No, even I can't keep going like this. After this incident, I need to rest for a while no matter what. If it gets too bad, I'll say that I have some health problems. If there are any more supernatural events in Dachang City, I'll request support from the Ghost Tamer Headquarters!"

I thought so in my heart.

Yang Jian walked towards his residence inside the Guanjiang residential area.

Throughout this time, his vigilance remained high. Although he did not turn his head to look around, several of his ghost eyes opened, their eerie crimson eyes twisting and scanning his surroundings, as if trying to find the unknown entity lurking in the shadows.

However, even after Yang Jian entered the house, he did not find any trace of the person (ghost) in the shadows, as if his previous feeling of being spied on was just an illusion.

"Yang Jian, you're back."

At that moment, a woman's voice came from a room on the second floor.

The speaker was Jiang Yan.

As she spoke, she pushed open the door to her room and walked out.

"Yang Jian, what's going on?"

However, when Jiang Yan saw Yang Jian's appearance clearly, the joy on her face froze, and then, as if she had thought of something, her made-up face turned deathly pale.

"Yang, Yang Jian, you know I'm always a scaredy-cat, don't scare me, could it be that a vengeful ghost has appeared in the house?"

It's no wonder Jiang Yan felt fear.

Yang Jian's appearance at this moment was too abnormal. Several eerie scarlet eyeballs had burst out of his skin and flesh all over his body, looking around strangely.

Anyone who witnesses this scene, especially when being scanned by the gazes of those ghostly eyes, will feel genuine fear.

Seeing this, Yang Jian glanced at Jiang Yan, then said in a calm tone, "This has nothing to do with you. Don't worry, I'll handle it. You can go back to your room now."

Done.

Yang Jian ignored Jiang Yan and carried the golden container straight into the safe house he had built.

at the same time.

the other side.

After successfully replicating Gui Meng's supernatural abilities in Meishan Village, Li Hui arrived at an extremely eerie place.

This is Baishui Town, located in Dashan City, about two or three hundred kilometers away from Dachang City. It's not far, and Li Hui's Ghost Domain arrived here quickly.

Baishui Town is not very big and has no reputation. Not to mention looking at the whole country, many people in the surrounding cities have never heard of this town.

"If I remember correctly, the name of the person in charge of Dashan City in the original work seems to be Xiao Yang, codenamed Ghost Rain."

Li Hui recalled the original plot in his mind and thought to himself.

He didn't use his authority to access the information of the person in charge at headquarters, because there was no need. He didn't intend to have any interaction with Xiao Yang on this trip. He was purely there for the supernatural phenomena in Baishui Village. As for Xiao Yang, that good-for-nothing, he didn't care about him at all.

Li Hui clearly remembered that Xiao Yang in the original novel died as soon as he appeared. However, according to the current timeline, that Xiao Yang should still be alive and well. Moreover, Baishui Town has not had any interaction with that supernatural place, or rather, that supernatural place has not completely invaded reality.

This can be seen from the weather in Baishui Town.

In the original story, when Yang Jian and his group arrived, Baishui Town was extremely gloomy, with the ghostly realm of ghost rain covering the entire town and rain falling continuously. But now, however, the sky is clear and there is not a single drop of rain to be seen.

Moreover, the entire town of Baishui looks perfectly normal now, with people and vehicles coming and going, and it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with it at all.

soon.

Li Hui then entered the town.

"If that supernatural place hasn't yet intersected with the real-world town of Baishui, then wandering around this town right now won't make much sense. The best approach is to directly infiltrate that supernatural place."

Without hesitation, Li Hui immediately activated the supernatural bus's abilities.

immediately.

The world before his eyes changed.

Based on the real-world town of Baishui, some buildings and strange phenomena that did not exist before all came into Li Hui's view.

That was a supernatural place corresponding to the real-world town of Baishui.

That eerie place was filled with coldness and terror. There was not just one vengeful ghost, but countless wandering souls. Even in the cracks of the sewers by the roadside, there was a pair of bloodshot eyes with vicious gazes. It was a complete ghost town!

Yes.

That supernatural place also exists in the form of a town, with many buildings inside. However, compared to the real-world town of Whitewater, it is undoubtedly much older, unlike modern architectural styles, and looks more like it was built in the last century. Many of the buildings have collapsed and sunken.

In that supernatural world, there is a very special building.

It was an old wooden house with two floors. What made it special was that the wooden house was located in the deepest part of that haunted place. In front of the wooden house was a haunted road, on which countless dead souls wandered. Brightly colored flowers were planted on both sides of the road.

They were paper flowers folded from colored paper, some red, some yellow, some green, some blue, all kinds of colors, with bright and strange shapes and colors!
"That's it, that old, two-story wooden house. It's the most terrifying and eerie place in that haunted land, and also the most dangerous place in the entire haunted land..."

The moment Li Hui saw the old wooden house, his eyes lit up, and he began to make plans in his mind.

He then took a step forward.

As Li Hui made this move, the world before him shattered as if it were glass. The boundary between the real world and the supernatural realm was broken, and Li Hui walked straight into this dark and eerie supernatural world.

It is worth mentioning that.

This place is filled with supernatural atmosphere, and his ghost realm is constantly being disturbed by supernatural forces. However, with the current strength of Li Hui's ghost realm, this level of supernatural interference is no match for him.

Then, the light of the ghost realm flashed, and Li Hui crossed most of the ghost town and arrived in front of the old wooden house.

There was a "crunch".

As the sound of the wooden cabin door being pushed open rang out, the scene in the lobby on the first floor of the cabin instantly came into Li Hui's view.

On the first floor of the old wooden house, there were rows of old coffins.

These coffins were all faded and covered in dust, making it impossible to tell whether they were originally red or black. There were many of them, at least a dozen, and it was unknown what was inside.

Tatata!
Li Hui ignored the coffins in the lobby and strode in, then came to the old wooden staircase.

Crunch!

When he took his first step on the old and peculiar wooden staircase, the steps, which seemed to possess supernatural power, appeared unable to bear Li Hui's weight and made a loud, shaky sound.

When Li Hui took his second step forward, the first step behind him actually collapsed instantly, like a piece of wood that had been neglected for years reaching the end of its life, unable to maintain its original shape any longer.

"This is impossible!"

Just then, a shocked voice came from higher up the old wooden staircase.

The voice belonged to an old man, his tone a mixture of shock and undisguised age. The voice continued, "Young man, who are you?"

Hear the words.

A glint flashed in Li Hui's eyes, but he did not respond. Instead, he continued to walk forward in an orderly manner.

With each step he took, a section of the old wooden staircase crumbled, and among the shattered wood chips, some strange things gradually emerged, such as some missing fingers hidden among them, pale skin attached to them, and a terrible vengeful spirit residing within them.

Even so, the eerie steps that sealed away terrifying ghosts could not withstand Li Hui's supernatural power. After he walked over, the steps immediately collapsed without any sign of recovery, as if the supernatural power residing inside had fallen into permanent silence.

This scene was astonishing, especially for the owner of the voice in the shadows.

The owner of the voice spoke again, saying hastily, "Young man, are you interested in making a deal with me?"

"Get me out of here!"

"In return, I can tell you everything you want to know, and I will try my best to meet any needs you may have!"

I can tell.

The owner of the voice in the shadows now had hope of escaping this place.

It wasn't that no one had entered this haunted house before, but they either died inside or were unable to get out. It wasn't until Li Hui appeared that he had hope.

Given the strength Li Hui has demonstrated so far, he is absolutely capable of helping him escape this dark and eerie place. Therefore, the owner of the voice is eager to reach a deal with Li Hui.

However, Li Hui remained extremely calm, even somewhat cold, in the face of the request from the voice in the darkness.

This time, he didn't ignore it anymore and chose to respond.

"I don't need you to tell me what I want to know; I will find out for myself. Besides, you can't give me what I need!"

As he spoke, his feet did not stop moving at all, but continued to walk up the old wooden stairs. The steps he walked on were all broken and shattered, revealing the strange objects inside.

I'd like to make a wild guess here: I feel the author is now starting to lay the groundwork for Li Hui's unconventional path.
