Chapter 111 Ghost Knocking on the Door (24th update, please subscribe!)
Cao Yanhua's change was within Lu Ming's expectations.
After the rectification, the atmosphere throughout the headquarters, from the deputy minister down to the telephone operators, has improved a lot.
In fact, Lu Ming had never objected to having ordinary people in management positions.
Because the management team is destined to remain relatively stable and not be subject to too much supernatural influence.
Therefore, the best solution is for ordinary people to receive specialized training before taking up their posts.
The previous headquarters simply didn't do that.
Some ordinary people are more like ghost tamers than the ghost tamers themselves, and the internal management and systems are quite chaotic.
Only now has the situation begun to improve and gradually change.
"If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too; this is indeed the truth."
Lu Ming nodded in satisfaction and casually asked Cao Yanhua, "Are the ghost coffin and the deceitful ghost ready?"
"Mr. Lu, everything is ready."
Cao Yanhua readily led Lu Ming to the underground area of the headquarters, which was specifically used to store supernatural items.
This place was converted from an underground base. The passageways are narrow, and walking inside makes you feel very oppressed.
As Cao Yanhua led the way, he explained, "This is where headquarters specifically stores special supernatural items... Every supernatural item here is under a very high level of secrecy, and in terms of effectiveness, it's no less valuable than the Ghost Candle or the Substitute Doll..."
The two continued forward along the narrow passage.
Most of the time, Cao Yanhua was the one talking and Lu Ming was the one listening.
Gradually, rooms began to appear on both sides of the passage, some with golden doors, while others looked like ordinary wooden doors.
But Lu Ming knew very well that the wooden door was just an illusion on the surface, because no matter what kind of door it was, it could keep his supernatural abilities out, preventing him from using them to investigate.
These doors are all made of gold.
When the topic of gold came up, Lu Ming said to Cao Yanhua, "Minister Cao, I've dealt with too many paranormal cases, and I simply don't have enough gold... You know what I mean, right?"
"Understood, Mr. Lu. I'll have someone increase your gold quota later."
“Quota?” Lu Ming shook his head. “If there aren’t enough quotas when imprisoning evil spirits, do I have to apply for them again? I need to access the gold resources of Dachang City.”
After only a brief consideration, Cao Yanhua nodded in agreement.
It definitely wouldn't work for any other ghost tamer.
But in Cao Yanhua's opinion, Lu Ming's words did make sense.
Giving him this permission isn't a big problem.
Having received a satisfactory answer, Lu Ming said no more. The troubles regarding gold resources were now completely resolved. He approached the doors on both sides of the passage and looked inside.
However, some doors did not have specific files or descriptions written next to them.
Where are the records for these paranormal items?
Cao Yanhua shook his head and explained, "Some supernatural items are too dangerous. The staff responsible for recording and storing these items may lose their lives as a result. So there is no need for such high-risk supernatural items to see the light of day again."
Do you want to seal the danger underground forever?
To be honest, Lu Ming felt that this approach was unreliable.
Just like the ghost tamer who buried the ghost hand in the soul bottle, he had the same plan as Cao Yanhua.
But ghosts cannot be killed. Ten years later, twenty years later, or even thirty years later, the ghosts buried underground will one day see the light of day again.
Of course, these things ultimately have little to do with Lu Ming now.
Lu Ming walked to the first room and peered inside through the thick glass. He saw an old camera placed in the room.
However, this thing doesn't seem to be a modern product; if you had to say, it's more like an old-fashioned film camera.
If Lu Ming hadn't known beforehand that it was a supernatural object, he would never have believed that such an old camera could still work properly.
"This is a camera that can take pictures of ghosts. Once you successfully capture a ghost in a photo, you can imprison it inside the picture."
It sounds amazing, but it's not actually as practical as you might imagine.
The ghost camera can only imprison evil spirits if used correctly, and correct use requires two prerequisites.
The first requirement is to capture the ghost's full appearance in the photo.
If even one part of a vengeful ghost is not captured in the camera, the ghost camera cannot function as a means of imprisoning it.
The second issue is that during the filming process, the camera will flash, which could cause the ghost controller using the ghost camera to lose control.
This is a terrible side effect.
If things get out of control, the user will be imprisoned inside the photograph, replacing the vengeful ghost.
"I still don't really like things with too much uncertainty. If you ask me, this weird camera should either be used with a music box, or it should be used by Xiong Wenwen, who has precognitive abilities..."
Thinking this, Lu Ming skipped the first room and continued walking deeper into the passage.
In front of a room, Lu Ming was drawn to a golden container inside.
The object imprisoned in the golden container was not a supernatural object, but a real ghost.
The golden container was small, only the size of a palm. Lu Ming estimated that the ghost that could be contained in such a container would not be very intact, and might even be just a single ghost hand.
The description is very simple, consisting of only three words.
Ghost knocking on the door.
When Lu Ming inquired about the specific information about the ghost, Cao Yanhua said, "According to the records, this ghost kills people by banging on doors. It is not yet clear whether it has other methods of killing. It is very terrifying, but after research, it has certain value to ghost controllers, so it has been stored here."
Lu Ming nodded to indicate that he understood.
Although Cao Yanhua said that the ghost knocking on the door had some value to the ghost tamer, and that it might even be controlled, he had no intention of taking the ghost away.
The mysterious world of resurgence is not lacking in vengeful spirits.
Controlling a vengeful spirit is not as simple as assembling building blocks; the process is often fraught with danger.
Especially for Lu Ming, the further he goes, the more he needs to consider the balance between ghosts. A slight mistake could lead to serious consequences.
Moreover, the so-called data from headquarters may not be complete at all. Cao Yanhua himself admitted that there may be other undiscovered patterns of killing involved in the ghost knocking on the door. If that is the case, the risk of trying to control this ghost will increase significantly, and unexpected situations may occur during the process.
After walking around for a while, Lu Ming had a general idea of what was going on.
The headquarters has a very rich history and heritage.
Remember the uses of these supernatural items so you can retrieve them in case of emergency.
