Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 41 Strange Black Shadow
The strange changes continued, and the true appearance of the old wooden house began to emerge little by little, making the whole house seem as if it were made of vengeful ghosts.

Wood chips fall off, darkness descends.

Strange human figures have emerged from the originally rotten wooden walls. These shadowy figures have identical outlines, are withered and shriveled, and have merged into one, replacing the original wooden walls and surrounding the first-floor hall of the wooden house.

Even the ceiling was covered in corpses, their appearances horrifying, their bodies twisted, and emitting a strong stench of decay.

In addition, the floor of the lobby on the first floor was also stained with the thick, black blood.

At this moment, Li Hui was standing in the cold, black blood. However, due to the supernatural characteristics of the bus, the supernatural curse in the blood was isolated and did not cause any substantial harm to his body.

There were also vengeful spirits in the blood. They had previously reached out with countless black hands to attack Li Hui, but they were suppressed by the supernatural power of the bus that Li Hui was driving. The ghostly hands fell silent and sank back into the black blood.

Click click click~!

As time passed, the eerie black shadow that had originally been merely a reflection on the wooden wall gradually detached itself from the wooden planks and appeared inside the hall, stepping on the blackened, viscous blood as it walked towards Li Hui.

They seemed weightless, and the wooden floor of the hall did not creak under the weight of the shadowy figures' movements.

Of course, it is also possible that the staining of the black blood has unknowingly affected the construction of the wooden planks on the ground, allowing them to withstand the weight of these shadowy figures.

"The shadowy figure is targeting me too?"

Is it because of the fragrance?

Seeing the eerie black shadows constantly closing in on him, Li Hui frowned and glanced at the incense burner placed on the offering table.

Three incense sticks were still burning in the incense burner, two short and one long. The smoke they emitted was black and enveloped Li Hui's body.

From a distance, Li Hui was surrounded by black smoke, but he was not affected by the smoke; he only felt that the smell was a little uncomfortable.

Li Hui knew very well that every vengeful ghost had a specific way of acting and a pattern of killing, and it was impossible for it to target him for no reason.

The ghostly hand that had previously emerged from the black blood attacked him, and now the eerie figure was doing the same, targeting him as if Li Hui had triggered their killing pattern.

Not only that, Li Hui also thought of the unseen ghost coming down from the second floor. Although the dull footsteps disappeared on the stairs, there was no doubt that the ghost was very close to him at that moment.

This is strange.

Li Hui hadn't done anything, yet it seemed as if he was being targeted by all the vengeful ghosts in the wooden house.

Picking up the black and white portrait was merely the cause of the strange occurrences in the wooden house, but it doesn't mean that Li Hui triggered the vengeful ghost's killing pattern.

Recalling everything that happened after he entered the wooden house, Li Hui felt that the most likely reason he was being targeted by a vengeful ghost was the layer of black smoke drifting from the incense burner.

Will the situation improve if I extinguish the incense?

Looking at the two short and one long incense sticks stuck in the incense burner, Li Hui pondered whether he should try to extinguish them to see if his situation of being targeted by a vengeful ghost would improve.

But it only took a moment to think about it.

Li Hui then made a decision.

He reached out and grabbed at the incense sticks.

Whether the extinction of the three incense sticks would cause new anomalies in the wooden house was no longer within Li Hui's consideration.

How bad can things get? They can't get any worse than they are now.
With numerous vengeful spirits targeting him simultaneously, even though Li Hui controlled the bus's supernatural power and could ignore most supernatural attacks, nothing is absolute. There's always a possibility that one of the vengeful spirits might have a special curse that could bypass the bus's obstruction.

After all, anything can happen in the supernatural world!
"Clap~"

The process was smooth.

Li Hui effortlessly extinguished the incense sticks in the incense burner without any obstruction, as if he were simply extinguishing three ordinary sticks of incense, devoid of any supernatural power.

After the incense was extinguished, the constantly drifting black smoke immediately dissipated and no longer lingered around Li Hui.

However, the situation did not improve.

The eerie shadows continued to approach, their footsteps muffled and uniform, as if all their behavior patterns had been meticulously calculated, without the slightest deviation, as if they were all carved from the same mold.

"Did I guess wrong?"

Seeing this, Li Hui looked slightly surprised.

This was somewhat different from what he had expected. He had previously believed that he would be targeted by the vengeful ghost because of the black smoke, but now it seemed that this was not the case.

Followed by.

Seeing the dark figure getting closer and closer, Li Hui also took action, stepping forward to suppress the vengeful ghost.

Since it can't be avoided, we can only try to get rid of the vengeful ghost.

Tatata!
Stepping onto the wooden plank covered in thick, black blood, Li Hui drew closer and closer to the eerie shadowy figure, which soon stood before him.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Hui pressed the black and white portrait under his other armpit, then threw a punch directly at the shadowy figure's body.

Something strange happened.

His fist passed right through the shadowy figure without any resistance; it was as if he had struck a figure formed from smoke.

However, this is indeed the case.

The dark figure in front of them suddenly exploded, turning into a cloud of black smoke that gradually dissipated.

Li Hui's punch may not have hit a physical object, but the supernatural force it contained had already affected the shadowy figure.

The shadowy figure is not without substance and can be touched without any medium. The black smoke is its body. The reason why Li Hui did not feel any impact was simply because hitting the smoke felt no different from hitting the air.

"This dark figure is not a vengeful ghost, but rather a manifestation of some kind of supernatural phenomenon. It's not even a ghost servant; it's somewhat similar but not quite the same."

After a brief encounter, Li Hui had a guess in his mind.

The black mist figure he just dispersed was not a real vengeful ghost.

Ghosts don't die. Even if they are suppressed, they will only fall into silence or even crash, but they will never completely disappear like the black shadow he just hit.

"The real vengeful ghost should be hiding among them, but it's uncertain which one."

Li Hui glanced around and saw that there were more than a dozen eerie black shadows surrounding him in the darkness. Their figures were all identical, thin and emaciated, as if they had been carved from the same mold.

Even by looking at it with the naked eye, he couldn't tell which of the dark figures was the real source of the evil spirit.

But it is not important.

There are only a dozen or so in total. If we keep testing them one by one, we will eventually find the source of the evil spirit hidden among them.

Think of this.

Li Hui continued his actions.

He raised his foot and kicked the nearest dark figure.

One more chapter will follow.
