Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 94 The Bus Reappears

As the gravedigger appeared behind Ye Zhen, the ground beneath his feet completely caved in, and the bottomless pit that was originally in front of Ye Zhen moved to the position directly beneath his body without him noticing.

This sudden change left Ye Zhen with nowhere to stand, and his body could only fall downwards along with the gravedigger.

"Since you dare to lie in wait for me alone, then this is your place of rest. The so-called number one ghost tamer in Asia is destined to be nothing but a joke!"

The gravedigger's deep, hoarse voice rang out.

Under the influence of the collision of supernatural forces, Ye Zhen's ghost realm was successfully restricted, preventing him from escaping, and his body could only fall.

But accordingly.

Grave diggers themselves are also being affected.

The shadow that enveloped his body quickly dissipated under the supernatural collision, and the gravedigger's body was completely exposed.

His appearance was terrifying, like a rotting corpse. Many parts of his body were rotten and oozing black liquid. Even the other parts of his body that were not rotten had an eerie black color.

That kind of black wasn't the skin color of a normal Black person, but an extreme darkness that exuded an inexplicable chill.

At this moment, the gravedigger, who looked like a rotting corpse, grabbed Ye Zhen and dragged him down into the bottomless, enormous ghost cave, seemingly intending to bury Ye Zhen and make him disappear from this world forever.

"You little devil, you actually dare to take the initiative? I did underestimate you. But if you think you can keep me here, Ye, alive, you're just daydreaming!"

Ye Zhen was not afraid at all.

They still didn't take the gravediggers seriously.

The supernatural power of a scapegoat emerged, and a chilling aura instantly enveloped the rotting corpse behind him, which resembled a vengeful ghost. In that instant, he chose to take the place of the deceased.

Under the supernatural influence of the scapegoat, all the harm he suffers will be transferred to the gravedigger.

Almost the instant Ye Zhen took the place of the gravedigger, the withered, cold, and stiff hands covering him began to tear at his body, as if they wanted to rip Ye Zhen's body apart alive.

These hands possessed extraordinary strength, not merely in terms of sheer power, but also in some unknown supernatural ability.

Ye Zhen's body was covered in wounds in an instant, all of them torn apart, each wound so deep that bone was visible, and flesh and blood were ripped off.

But in the next moment.

All of Ye Zhen's wounds disappeared, and he returned to his original state, as if the attack from the palm had never happened.

Almost at the same time, a shrill scream came from behind Ye Zhen. The voice was very hoarse, like the low growl of a vengeful ghost, which was very jarring.

No new wounds appeared on the gravedigger's body, but the decay of his body became even more severe at this moment, with black liquid constantly seeping out and dripping down.

Not only that.

Ye Zhen's counterattack has begun.

He suddenly turned to the side, clenched his right fist, and punched the gravedigger behind him. His punching posture was very standard, as if he had undergone professional training. The angle of his punch was also very tricky, making it difficult for the gravedigger to dodge effectively for a while.

boom!
A muffled thud came from the darkness.

Ye Zhen's fist landed squarely on the gravedigger, the immense force sending him flying.

At the same time, Ye Zhen made a bold decision. His own supernatural power enveloped the noblewoman's body, and at this moment he actually wanted to try to control the supernatural power within the body of the terrifying woman he was holding in his left hand.

Anyone else would never dare to be so reckless, not only because controlling a new supernatural being could lead to a loss of personal balance, but also because the noblewoman was an anomaly, and it was difficult to be sure whether she was truly dead at this moment.

If he didn't die.

So, one ghost tamer controlling another ghost tamer is a precedent almost never seen in the paranormal world, and no one can be sure what will happen in the end.

But Ye Zhen was not afraid at all.

To be precise, he didn't even know how to write the word "fear," and the meaning of this word didn't exist in his dictionary.

In just a moment, Ye Zhen had mastered it.

However, his control over ghosts is different from how a normal ghost tamer controls a vengeful spirit. He only controls them briefly, can use this part of the supernatural power, and can separate this part of the supernatural power afterward.

This is also a flaw of the scapegoat; it will actively expel other vengeful ghosts in the body that are not terrifying enough, separating them from Ye Zhen's body.

in other words.

The more terrifying the ghost, the longer Ye Zhen can control it. On the contrary, ghosts that are not terrifying enough will be expelled from the body by the supernatural power of the substitute ghost in an instant.

"This pit is quite nice, indeed suitable as a burial place, but it cannot bury me, Ye. Instead, it is a grave you prepared for yourself in advance, dying in the pit you dug yourself. It seems you are quite self-aware."

in the dark.

Ye Zhen's expression was cold and stern.

Completely disregarding the cold, sinister hands on his body, he moved quickly and strangely toward the gravedigger.

This is a supernatural phenomenon belonging to noblewomen.

A black shadow quickly stretched from in front of Ye Zhen to the gravedigger's feet. As the supernatural spread, the surrounding environment began to change. The bottomless pit began to disappear, and only this shadow remained in the whole world.

Eventually, the shadows formed a strange path, and on this dark path, there were only Ye Zhen and the gravedigger.

"I'll kill you today!"

Seeing that the gravedigger not far away had not yet fully recovered from the supernatural influence of his punch, Ye Zhen's face was filled with killing intent, his gaze was cold, and he looked at the other party as if he were looking at a dead man.

However, before Ye Zhen could get completely close...

The gravedigger recovered.

Then, a supernatural phenomenon occurred to him, and a new pit appeared beneath his feet. The gravedigger fell into the pit and disappeared down the shadowy path.

Even if Li Hui couldn't contain the supernatural phenomena of the Ghost Realm, the influence of the noblewoman's supernatural powers alone wouldn't be enough to keep him here.

"Trying to run now? It's too late!"

"If you manage to slip away right under my nose, what will become of my reputation?"

Ye Zhen was not surprised by the gravedigger's actions, but he did not intend to let him go. Moreover, he had already found a way to deal with it and was confident that he could locate the gravedigger.

Then he vanished from the spot, jumping into the pit before it disappeared completely...

at the same time.

Outside of Dachang City.

As Li Hui's hazy ghostly domain disappeared into the distant horizon, and Ye Zhen and the foreign ghost tamers also failed to appear, Zhao Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Hui's ghost domain left on its own initiative, which indicates that this was his personal action. In other words, his clash with those foreign ghost tamers ended in victory for Li Hui, which is obviously good news for Zhao Jianguo and his group.

If the victors are foreign demon tamers, the consequences will be unimaginable; perhaps all those present will also be killed.

While pondering, Zhao Jianguo arrived at the tent where Wang Xiaoming was.

But before he could go inside, Wang Xiaoming's voice came out: "That ghost tamer named Li Hui has left?"

"Yes."

Zhao Jianguo, who had just entered the tent, responded, "The ghost domain spread out into the distance at a very fast speed, disappearing in the blink of an eye. Ye Zhen also left later, but we didn't see any of those foreign ghost tamers. They must have been killed by Li Hui and the others."

"The only regret is that you, Professor Wang, have waited so long for nothing."

Yes.

During his previous conversation with Zhao Jianguo, Wang Xiaoming revealed his desire to talk to Li Hui, but Li Hui's departure made Zhao Jianguo realize that the communication Wang Xiaoming wanted was obviously impossible.

"No, actually Li Hui has already responded to me."

suddenly.

Wang Xiaoming's eyes flickered slightly, and he said something that left Zhao Jianguo completely baffled.

However, Wang Xiaoming did not intend to explain, but simply told Zhao Jianguo to go down and continue to lead the search and rescue mission.

"Did you refuse?"

After Zhao Jianguo's figure disappeared, Wang Xiaoming uttered a sentence that seemed to be a soliloquy, or an unconscious murmur while he was thinking about something.

Li Hui's ghost domain covered a large suburb outside Dachang City and most of the city, and the open space where the headquarters was located was also within the range of Li Hui's ghost domain.

Based on Wang Xiaoming's research on the Ghost Domain's abilities, he knew that nothing within the Ghost Domain could escape Li Hui's perception. Therefore, in his view, Li Hui's departure was actually a silent rejection of him.

However, Wang Xiaoming did not have any negative emotions because of this.

In his view, it would be best to be able to communicate with Li Hui, so that he could know the answers to some things, but he wouldn't feel regretful because the two of them couldn't talk.

Again.

Li Hui will likely go to the Ghost Tamer headquarters in Dajing City soon to collect his reward for this incident, which is a supernatural item. There will obviously be an opportunity for communication at that time.

At the same time that Wang Xiaoming was pondering.

the other side.

After leaving Dachang City, Li Hui arrived in a small city in northern China called Xiaojin City.

The city is also a bustling scene with towering buildings, which is similar in almost all cities in China. However, compared with large cities such as Dahai City and Dachang City, Xiaojin City is obviously still quite different.

Li Hui came to this city because he wanted to catch a ride.

That vehicle was no ordinary vehicle; it was the haunted bus!
As the driver of the vehicle, he had a certain sense of when and where the bus entered the real world. In addition, the human skin paper also revealed the time and place of the bus entering the station this time.

A hazy layer of paper ash drifted in the air.

The next moment, Li Hui appeared at a bus stop.

His sudden appearance went unnoticed by other pedestrians, as if no one could see him.

that's the truth.

He resides in a deep ghost realm, which ordinary people cannot see or touch, and his ghost realm is not revealed.

In other words.

Even though his ghostly domain had unknowingly enveloped the entire city, from the perspective of ordinary people, there was nothing unusual, and the city's appearance remained unchanged.

"Are you coming?"

Sudden.

After waiting at the station for about ten minutes, Li Hui's expression changed slightly, and he turned his gaze to the distance.

The city's buildings did nothing to obstruct his view; in his sight, a streetlamp on a distant road flickered a few times.

Then, a large smog suddenly appeared out of nowhere in his gray, ghostly realm, followed by two yellowish headlights that lit up, and a bus drove from the illusion into reality.

To the average person, this bus looks normal, no different from any other bus. But to Li Hui, it was a rusty, broken, and dented scrapped vehicle!

Yet this old, dilapidated bus was able to drive normally on the city roads, heading this way.

Furthermore, the dim yellow lights converged, even distorting Li Hui's ghost realm, and the hazy paper ash simply vanished.

"I hope the paper parchment wasn't lying, and that the haunted place the bus is about to pass through contains something useful to me, otherwise..."

Li Hui's eyes flickered slightly as he recalled the information he had obtained from the human skin paper.

If it weren't for the information revealed by the human skin paper, he wouldn't be here at all, because for him at this moment, he is equivalent to a supernatural bus, with the ability to break through the boundaries of the supernatural world.

Unfortunately, the supernatural place revealed by the human skin paper did not have a specific location that overlapped with the real world. Even when Li Hui asked, he did not get any useful answers. He was only told that he could reach that place by taking the supernatural bus.

"The bus is coming."

At this time.

Other pedestrians at the station also saw the arrival of the ghost bus and all gathered in one place, ready to board.

Under the watchful eyes of Li Hui and the other pedestrians waiting for the bus, the bus gradually slowed down and moved closer to the stop line where their stop was located.

Two minutes later.

A screech of brakes followed.

The supernatural bus came to a complete stop, and both the front and rear doors opened at the same time. Everything seemed so normal that ordinary people couldn't tell the difference between this bus and any other bus.

The only one who seemed to have a problem was the bus driver.

His body appeared very stiff, his hands resting motionless on the steering wheel, like a long-dead corpse. However, under normal circumstances, no one would pay any special attention to this, as the passengers waiting for the bus all wanted to squeeze onto the bus and find a seat.

However, Li Hui had no intention of letting these ordinary people get on the bus.

The main problem is that there are too many people wanting to get on at this stop; I'm afraid the ghost bus will be almost full once they all get on.

Although Li Hui was not afraid of the abnormalities that would result from the vehicle being fully loaded, he did not want to waste too much time on it.

A thick cloud of ashes swept by, and all the ordinary people who were waiting to board the bus at the bus stop were moved to the other side of the street.

At the same moment, Li Hui stepped onto the old vehicle in front of him.

After boarding the bus, he went straight to the driver's seat and pressed the button to close the door. Even though Li Hui was not sitting in the driver's seat at the moment, his connection with the bus still existed, and he was still the bus driver.
