Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 7 Being targeted

However, something unexpected happened to Li Hui.

He Qin is dead!

Before he could even get close, He Qin died, but not from the attack of the scarecrows, nor from the resurrection of her own vengeful spirit. Instead, she died from the attack of another vengeful spirit.

The one who killed her was the strange little boy who had been sitting next to Li Hui earlier.

The boy's skin was deathly pale, and his face was stiff. He stood beside He Qin's decapitated corpse, staring at Li Hui with his cold, empty, and lifeless eyes. The scene was indescribably eerie and terrifying.

"Is it some kind of inescapable murder pattern?"

Li Hui first glanced at He Qin, whose body was severed from its head, then focused his gaze on the boy standing next to the corpse, recalling the scene that had just occurred.

Just now.

Li Hui decided to save He Qin, intending to learn from her about the current internal situation of the Ghost Post Office and some real-world issues.

But shortly after he took action, He Qin was killed in an extremely abrupt and bizarre manner, leaving Li Hui no time to save her.

Suddenly, the strange boy appeared beside He Qin, and then a huge gash appeared on He Qin's neck, extending back and forth, severing her entire neck. Immediately afterward, her head fell off, and blood gushed out instantly, staining the surrounding ground red.

The scene was extremely bloody and terrifying, causing Li Hui, who witnessed the whole thing, to feel a slight unease.

"The situation has become somewhat complicated."

Turning his gaze away, Li Hui swatted away another scarecrow that was about to attack him. Suddenly, he noticed that the several vengeful ghosts who had been forced to get off the bus because it had stalled seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally moving closer to him.

Apart from the wailing ghost that he slapped away and is still lying motionless in the field, and the eerie little boy next to He Qin's corpse who remained silent.

A middle-aged woman, a charred male corpse, a vengeful ghost whose body was severely bloated from being soaked in water, and even the terrifying man who had previously mingled with the messenger were now all walking towards this side.

This is undoubtedly bad news.

Even though Li Hui did not trigger the vengeful ghost's killing pattern, he was the only living person in the room, which more or less attracted the vengeful ghost's attention.

Even more terrifying, a vengeful ghost, suspected to be the source of the scarecrow incident, has appeared.

In the rice paddies not far from Li Hui, a tall scarecrow appeared that was distinctly different from the other scarecrows. It was over three meters tall, and the straw on its body was not golden, but black.

Besides.

The black scarecrow's face had developed a distinct human facial outline, and it was now looking at Li Hui with a strange smile, also walking towards him.

As the black scarecrow moved, the other scarecrows around it also intensified their movements, crowding towards it.

Are they targeting me?
Upon seeing this, Li Hui's face darkened.

Even now, he still hasn't figured out the Scarecrow's killing patterns, but judging from its behavior, it should be a type that is very easy to trigger, or perhaps it's a killing without any rules.
Besides the black scarecrow, there are also real vengeful spirits among the other scarecrows, making them more than just simple supernatural creations.

For example, the messenger who was killed by the scarecrow earlier...

At this moment, he was covered in golden straw, and had become a brand new scarecrow. He slowly crawled up from the ground and walked towards Li Hui.

You should know that the messenger was a ghost tamer with a real vengeful ghost inside him, yet Li Hui never saw the vengeful ghost inside the messenger escape from beginning to end.

This means that the vengeful ghost and the messenger's corpse were 'assimilated' by the scarecrow's supernatural power, becoming an existence similar to a 'ghost slave' controlled by the vengeful ghost that was the source of the scarecrow!

This is terrifying, foreshadowing the horrifying nature of the vengeful ghost at the source of the scarecrow incident. It can easily assimilate other vengeful ghosts simply through the invasion of its own supernatural power.

"If I were to rate it, the scarecrow would definitely be an S-class supernatural phenomenon, both in terms of its level of harm and its level of terror!"

A hint of apprehension flashed in Li Hui's eyes.

He wasn't a mindless brute; he would never believe that his ability to control a three-story bus without any cost made him invincible.

Perhaps at this moment, he could easily deal with ordinary ghost tamers, some supernatural beings, and even vengeful ghosts that were not particularly terrifying, but he would be somewhat at a loss when facing some that were particularly terrifying and complex.

After all, his methods were too simplistic.

Only physical contact can effectively suppress the other party, but some vengeful ghosts kill in bizarre ways, and you will die before you even get close.

"Don't fight it head-on. Step back and get on the supernatural bus as soon as it recovers."

Seeing the numerous supernatural entities getting closer and closer, Li Hui immediately stopped thinking. He came to his senses and turned to walk towards where the bus was parked.

Li Hui knew very well that he couldn't afford to waste time fighting these vengeful ghosts, or he would definitely lose. His attacks couldn't silence the ghosts permanently; they could only keep them quiet for a while. Once that time was up, the ghosts would return to normal.

Bang~!

With a raised hand and a punch, the approaching scarecrow flew away instantly. Although the force was not great, the scarecrow's body fell more than ten meters away, and then fell into an eerie silence, remaining motionless for a long time.

But this is only temporary.

Don't say that Li Hui only possesses the three layers of supernatural power of the supernatural bus. Even if the supernatural bus were in its complete state, it wouldn't be able to make the vengeful ghost disappear forever after it collided with it!
Regarding this point, Yang Jian's father, Yang Xiaotian, is the most qualified to speak on this matter. In the original novel, after his actions, he was almost dead, but Gui Meng was still not killed in the crash...

"Are those vengeful spirits inside the messengers going to join the fun too?"

As he retreated, Li Hui's eyes kept scanning the other vengeful ghosts, including the two messengers who died in the attack of the weeping grave ghost, and He Qin, whose head was separated from her body.

At this moment, the two messengers who were kneeling on the ground stood up and looked in the direction where Li Hui was with a sad expression on their faces.

the other side.

He Qin's head, which had fallen to the ground, also began to react. Her ghost eyes were gradually reviving, and her pair of pitch-black eyes kept turning, as if she were surveying her surroundings.

However, only for a moment, those ghostly eyes turned their gaze to Li Hui.

"Something's wrong!"

Upon noticing this scene, Li Hui realized something was wrong. If only some of the vengeful ghosts were targeting him, he could still forcefully explain it away by saying that he was the only living person in the area.

But now almost all the vengeful ghosts are targeting him, which is obviously very strange, and it's definitely not because he's the only living person here.

However, due to the information asymmetry, even though Li Hui sensed something was wrong, he was unable to deduce the correct answer.

After all, he had only been in this world for less than a day. Even on Earth, he was just an ordinary worker. It was already quite an achievement that he had managed to do this much.

The only thing that's certain is that this is not a place to stay for long!
Bang bang bang~
The scarecrows that had surrounded him were no match for Li Hui; instead, they were sent flying by Li Hui's punch. Even a real vengeful ghost, the charred male corpse, attacked him, but it was to no avail; Li Hui punched it away.

This situation greatly boosted Li Hui's confidence, and he even considered turning back to confront the vengeful ghosts head-on.

However, reason prevailed over him, preventing him from turning back rashly, and he continued to retreat toward the location of the bus.
