Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 541: Ten Years After Ten Years

"Fang Shiming?"

Gu Shen repeated softly. He seemed to have heard this name somewhere before. Although he couldn't remember it clearly, a name that could leave an impression on a small person like him must be from a big shot.

"There is an old saying from our ancestors: Isn't it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar?"

"I propose to establish a ghost-control organization here and now, and its name is - Circle of Friends!"

Fang Shiming was speaking eloquently on the stage, and many people in the audience were already getting restless.

"Friends Circle? This name is good, low-key enough, and it fits our situation. Becoming a ghost rider means that you can no longer return to the life of an ordinary person, but if you join the Friends Circle, everyone is a ghost rider, and everyone is a friend. The circle of friends is most appropriate to be called the Friends Circle."

Someone commented, stroking his chin.

"I want to join."

Someone in the audience stood up and raised his arms in response.

"My name is Jiang Xiaobai, and I agree to form a circle of friends. Mr. Fang, I will follow you from now on."

The man who called himself Jiang Xiaobai walked onto the stage and stood next to Fang Shiming.

"Welcome."

Fang Shiming smiled and said.

"Mr. Fang, I'm joining too. My name is Liu Dong."

"I'm joining too. My name is Gao Zhiqiang!"

"My name is Wu Yun!"

"My name is He Tianxiong!"

In just one minute, five people responded to Fang Shiming and went up to the stage one by one. It was obvious that these six people would be the veterans of the future circle of friends.

"Everyone, I have something that can cut off the curse and stop the attacks of evil spirits. It is indeed a powerful weapon for killing people and shutting up evil spirits."

As he spoke, Fang Shiming took out a pair of scarlet scissors from his pocket, and a cold atmosphere immediately spread in the conference room.

"I got this pair of ghost scissors by chance. The moment I touched it, I seemed to see some scenes from the past."

"That was a young man with three eyes. He should have been a top ghost tamer in the past. But in the hands of the previous user of the Ghost Scissors, a single cut cleaved his head. The murder was done thousands of miles away without him being seen. The three-eyed young man's ghost revived and he died on the spot."

Fang Shiming showed a proud look on his face. What he was holding in his hand was indeed the Ghost Scissors, and it was indeed something he obtained by chance. After the national war ended, Lu Zhiwen gave the Ghost Scissors to the person in charge to use, but that person in charge was not strong enough, resulting in the Ghost Scissors being lost outside and eventually obtained by Fang Shiming.

"Is it really that powerful?"

Some people in the audience didn't quite believe it. Although they knew how terrifying supernatural items were, they didn't believe that a pair of scissors could kill a top ghost rider, let alone a top ghost rider from his captaincy days.

"I don't need to explain anything to you. The circle of friends is established today. This building will be our headquarters in the future. All like-minded friends are welcome to join us. Let's stick together and keep each other warm."

Fang Shiming glanced at the guy and said indifferently.

In the corner, Lu Zhiwen witnessed everything that happened. He came to investigate the whereabouts of Ghost Scissors and tracked him all the way here.

"Friends circle? Fang Shiming?"

Lu Zhiwen felt a little amused and helpless. Time was like a cycle. What had happened would happen again, and what had been done would be done again. And the funniest thing was that the building chosen by Fang Shiming was called Ping An Building, which was the headquarters of Ping An Group in Shenzhen decades ago.

Lu Zhiwen couldn't judge right or wrong. However, Lu Zhiwen didn't plan to recycle the ghost scissors. The supernatural items were only valuable if they were used. At present, Fang Shiming didn't seem like a bad person, so it was not a bad idea to keep them in his hands.

Just like that, under the witness of Captain Lu Zhiwen, a new circle of friends was established. However, Dashen City is very close to Dadong City, where Wang Su, the fourth generation of the Wang family, is based. It is hard to say whether Wang Su will have any ideas or actions.

"No matter what, this group of people gathered together just to survive. If they really do something bad, it won't be too late to beat them up."

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Zhiwen chose to leave and had no intention of taking any action against this newly formed circle of friends.

Decade after decade, after experiencing countless dark events, the domestic situation has finally stabilized. However, the price of this stability is painful and heavy. Dozens of cities in the country have almost completely become deserted cities, and most people have chosen to move and flock to cities with responsible persons.

This is the sixtieth year since the disappearance of law enforcement captain Yang Jian, and supervisory captain Cao Yang has also been missing for about forty years. Only Lu Zhiwen, Wang Su, Li Leping, Ye Zhen and Wei Jing are left in the entire headquarters.

However, five captains cannot support a country. All they can do is maintain stability in a region, nothing more.

On this day, an uninvited guest came to Dachang City. The reason for this description is that there is no ghost rider in Dachang City now. Although there is the headquarters to take care of it, it is impossible to provide support anytime and anywhere.

"Time flies. I didn't expect that sixty years have passed since you declared yourself emperor."

The man was very young, about twenty years old, with a slender figure and sharp features, but his skin looked a little pale, as if he had suffered a serious illness.

"It's been so long, it's time for you to come out."

The man talked to himself and then walked into the temple in Guanjiang Community.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Noticing a stranger approaching, Wang Shanshan asked with a cold face.

"I am Cao Yang, the captain of the headquarters. I am here today to confirm the status of the law enforcement captain Yang Jian."

Yes, he is Cao Yang, captain Cao Yang, who has been missing for decades but reappeared today.

"How can I trust you?"

Wang Shanshan still looked alert. Although she knew that she could not stop a ghost rider, she still wanted to delay as much time as possible.

"In the entire spiritual world, only three people know where Yang Jian went. Li Yang is one, you are the second, and I am the last."

"Here are my business cards and satellite phone. If you still don't believe me, I'll have no choice but to force my way in."

Cao Yang took out a golden business card with the words "Cao Yang" engraved on it, and also a bulky satellite phone.

"Go in, I can't stop you."

Wang Shanshan moved sideways to make way for Cao Yang.

There is a compartment on the second floor of the temple, but Yang Jian used some means to change the layout and hid the entire compartment, making it impossible for ordinary people to find it.

This method naturally could not stop Cao Yang, and he found the entrance easily. Wang Shanshan followed behind him with a few ghost candles in her hand.

"Don't worry. I'm here, so I can handle any unexpected situation. If I can't handle it, then no one else in the world can. We can all just pack up and wait to die."

It sounds easy, but Wang Shanshan still feels nervous. She has been guarding this temple for sixty years, and has also been worried about it for sixty years.

"Yang Jian must not be dead, otherwise I would not be alive until now."

Wang Shanshan kept comforting herself in her heart.
