Mysterious Resurrection: Starting from the Hanged Man Path

Chapter 27 The Price of Irony

"As you wish." Zhang Xiansheng said, and a silk thread at his fingertips established a connection with the man.

The man asked impatiently: "Then I can make a wish now, right?"

Zhang Xiansheng said: "Of course."

"Let me think about it. Money, women, power... they are all mine. I want them all! Let's start with the money. I want... 10 million, no, 100 million!"

"I want money, I want one hundred million!" The man looked at Zhang Xiansheng greedily.

"My second wish...I want a superhuman body..."

"........."

Zhang Xiansheng calmly watched the man in front of him making a wish in an almost crazy way.

suddenly.

The cell phone in the man's pocket dinged.

"Your first wish has come true." Zhang Xiansheng said.

Upon hearing this, the man hurriedly took out his mobile phone and counted the incoming numbers.

One hundred million yuan really came into his bank card out of nowhere.

"I'm rich! I'm rich!" He looked at Zhang Xiansheng and asked quickly, "Where are the other wishes I made just now?"

"Those wishes can only be fulfilled after you pay a price."

Zhang Xiansheng's mouth curled up, and there was a hint of mockery in his tone.

"Then hurry up, I can't wait to fulfill my next wish." The man urged.

Zhang Xiansheng said slowly: "The most precious thing in your heart is yourself, so the price you have to pay is your life."

"What?" The man didn't react for a moment.

Plop.

The man fell to the ground, breathless, and became a corpse.

These two transactions allowed Zhang Xiansheng to roughly understand the mechanism of making wishes.

The wish is fulfilled first, and the price is paid later.

The man's opportunistic approach just now is not advisable. Fulfilling one hundred wishes is a relatively vague concept.

It can be a wish that can come true, after all, it has increased from one wish to one hundred wishes, but then it is time to pay the price because the wish has been fulfilled.

It can also not be a wish and become a part that is automatically ignored, so there is only one wish from beginning to end.

Once your wish comes true, it's time to pay the price.

This misleading nature is freely controlled by Zhang Xiansheng, who is in a sense equivalent to a little wish ghost.

In addition, the two transactions made him clearly feel that the wish ghost's supernatural power had increased.

Zhang Xiansheng looked at the silk thread at his fingertips and saw not only the man's body, but also a thinner thread.

He tried to establish a connection with that thinner thread.

soon.

"Ding~"

Zhang Xiansheng took out his mobile phone and received a text message from his bank card indicating that 100 million yuan had been deposited into his account.

He guessed that it was because of the man's death that this fulfilled wish became ownerless.

Once he establishes contact with it again, the wish will naturally belong to him, and since someone has already paid the price, there is no need to pay again.

Zhang Xiansheng looked at the body of the man in the ghost realm and the body of the woman at the dining table not far away.

He had a thought.

He used the ghost domain to transfer both bodies to the street outside the community.

After doing this, he prepared to leave.

Although there are only two little girls left in this family, they have enough food to support themselves. As long as they can escape the purge of the starving ghost incident, they will be sent to an orphanage.

At this time.

The older little girl called out, "God...The Hanged Man, are you still there?"

Zhang Xiansheng paused.

He simply dragged both little girls into the ghost realm.

The two little girls still couldn't see him clearly. The older girl asked, "Can you make another wish?"

Zhang Xiansheng was silent for a moment.

"can."

"Thank you." The little girl thought for a while and said, "My sister needs a home. That home is warm and her parents love her very much."

"Have you decided?" Zhang Xiansheng asked.

The little girl nodded.

A blank silk thread at Zhang Xiansheng's fingertips established a connection with the slightly older girl in front of him.

"Congratulations, your wish has come true."

next moment.

The dead mother of the two little girls appeared out of nowhere, along with a simple-looking man. They rushed towards the youngest girl, their eyes filled with strong, unbreakable family affection.

The older little girl was ignored by them like air.

"What's the price?" asked the little girl.

Zhang Xiansheng said slowly: "Family affection."

The little girl took a deep breath and bowed.

"Thank you."

Zhang Xiansheng left here and appeared on the street outside the community.

He put away the ghost domain and walked towards the inn where he lived.

He planned to go back and take a shower, and then find a place to start the promotion process.

He had to admit that the little girl just now gave him a great shock, and the final price was somewhat ironic.

No matter how much she looks like an adult, she is still just a little girl after all. She always longs for family affection in her heart and wants to have a happy and warm home.

But it's impossible now, she has already paid the price for her family love.

Zhang Xiansheng put his thoughts aside and turned a street to where the hotel was.

He was a little confused, he saw a lot of people.

There are not many of these people under normal circumstances, only about one or two hundred, but in this period of purge of starving ghosts, they are particularly precious.

He looked a little strange. What were these people gathering here for?
He opened the ghost realm and appeared directly in the hotel room where he was staying.

However, the room had a new owner, a middle-aged man who looked to have some assets.

The sound of gurgling water came from the bathroom.

Zhang Xiansheng used the ghost realm but failed to find his golden body bag.

He pulled the middle-aged man into the ghost realm, then appeared on the first floor, pulling the inn owner in as well.

The two were confused at first, and when they saw the strange scenes around them, they couldn't help but feel fear in their hearts.

Zhang Xiansheng appeared in front of the two of them. He looked at the innkeeper and asked directly, "Where are my things?"

"Are you the previous resident? Aren't you dead?" The innkeeper looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"Where are my things?"

"I thought you were dead and then... thrown away." The innkeeper said quickly.

"Lost?" Zhang Xiansheng had a thought.

A bony branch pierced the innkeeper's abdomen directly.

"No, no, that is gold, how could I lose it, it is in my room now, right in my room..." the innkeeper said hurriedly.

The middle-aged man next to him was shocked by this scene. He wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.

Zhang Xiansheng looked at the middle-aged man: "It's none of your business."

The next moment, the middle-aged man disappeared.

Under the guidance of the innkeeper, Zhang Xiansheng successfully retrieved the golden body bag, and then... he eliminated the innkeeper.

The innkeeper's room naturally belonged to him.

He closed the door and went into the bathroom to wash up.
