We were supposed to be doing horror movie guides, but what the heck is this "mysterious resurre

Chapter 120 The Method of Mastering Ghost Drawings (3.3k)

Lu Ming nodded: "Starting today, the WeChat Moments has been completely removed. It's a good thing that the paranormal community has lost such a clique."

Upon hearing this expected answer, Yang Jian's eyelids twitched, and he felt a little dazed.

Fang Shiming's downfall signifies the complete disintegration of the social circle.

Although I had long expected that WeChat Moments would be taken down, it is still quite unbelievable that it was destroyed so easily.

From Lu Ming's appearance and forceful suppression of Fang Shiming not long ago to his use of supernatural means to hunt him down from a distance, it has only taken less than ten minutes.

"This Lu Ming is truly terrifying to an extreme degree. No one would have imagined that he is actually a newcomer who has only been a Ghost Tamer for less than a month..."

Yang Jian thought for a moment and said to Lu Ming, "Lu Ming, this confrontation with the circle of friends was caused by me. Next time you have any ghost tamers to deal with, or any paranormal events that you find difficult to handle, just call me."

Having received Lu Ming's help time and again, Yang Jian felt a little embarrassed. If he didn't make some promises, it would make him, as the person in charge, seem petty.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming merely gave a chilling smile, said nothing more, and nodded in agreement.

He knew that Yang Jian had misunderstood him.

However, Lu Ming would certainly not deny this "well-intentioned" misunderstanding.

Having more friends is never a bad thing. Even a ghost tamer who deals with evil spirits all day long would not want to be surrounded by enemies.

Moreover, he did objectively help Yang Jian in order to obtain the Ghost Scissors.

"Alright, I'm leaving now, Ghost Eye Yang Jian. See you next time."

After saying that, Lu Ming left the dark street, leaving behind only a wisp of ashes slowly drifting down from mid-air.

···········
Greater J City.

The Asia branch of the Ghost Riders headquarters.

After a subordinate gave a brief summary of the incident, he handed it over to Cao Yanhua.

"Minister Cao, after this whole mess, the WeChat Moments is basically dead in name only. That ghost groom Lu Ming..."

"Okay, I see."

Cao Yanhua waved his hand dismissively, interrupting the assistant who was about to say something.

He certainly wouldn't cause trouble for Lu Ming because of this.

After all, the relationship between headquarters and Lu Ming had only recently begun to improve, and they couldn't afford to let it sour over a small matter.

In addition, Cao Yanhua had long disliked the behavior of people on WeChat Moments.

Lu Ming's decision to shut down his WeChat Moments is a good thing in itself.

The assistant wanted to say something more, but after thinking about it, he didn't speak.

Because the atmosphere at headquarters has changed recently, I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing. Employees in different positions have their own division of labor. If they interfere arbitrarily, act on their own initiative, or talk back to their superiors, they will have their wages deducted depending on the circumstances. In serious cases, they may even be fired directly.

The so-called "depending on the severity of the situation" means considering the context in which the incident occurred.

For example, in the situation just now, Cao Yanhua had clearly told him not to mention it again, but he still insisted on bringing it up. The likely outcome would be that he would have a thousand yuan deducted from his salary.

If a ghost handler is on the front lines dealing with paranormal events, and the operator is being long-winded and rambling on without actually doing anything, then the only outcome will be being fired.

When the topic of operators came up, the assistant suddenly remembered an amusing incident that had happened at headquarters some time ago.

After the relationship between the ghost groom Lu Ming and headquarters improved, Cao Yanhua thought of assigning Lu Ming a dedicated operator.

After several days of careful selection and training, Cao Yanhua still couldn't find a satisfactory one.

In the end, there was no other way but for Minister Cao to personally act as Lu Ming's operator.

From now on, when Lu Ming dials the headquarters line, he won't need to be transferred; he can directly call Cao Yanhua.

Many people privately feel that this behavior is inappropriate and constitutes differential treatment.

Especially since Lu Ming recently hacked into the headquarters.

This makes it seem like headquarters is afraid of him.

However, Cao Yanhua did not think there was anything wrong with his approach; in fact, he thought it was a brilliant and perfect idea.

···········
Dahai City.

Mingzhu Building.

This is the headquarters of the paranormal forum and a landmark building in the entire city of Dahai. From the CEO's office on the top floor of this building, you can enjoy a panoramic view of Dahai through a floor-to-ceiling window.

But Ye Zhen did not do that today.

He closed the game on his computer, his expression somewhat serious.

For Ye Zhen, this state is not common; it only happens when something very significant occurs.

"Unbelievable, truly unbelievable! This ghost groom, Xiao Lu, just infiltrated headquarters, and before he could even settle down for a few days, he's already taken down his WeChat Moments..."

"I'm becoming more and more certain that this Xiao Lu is targeting me, Ye."

"Invading headquarters is a declaration of war against me, and taking down Moments is a direct challenge to me, Ye. After all, I fought with Fang Shiming from Moments before. Although I drove him away, I still couldn't eliminate him completely."

Ye Zhen felt that his authority as Asia's number one ghost tamer had been challenged, and he was very angry, so he made a decision immediately.

"I'm going to Dachang City. Ghost Eye Yang Jian and Ghost Groom Xiao Lu both came from there. I, Ye, want to see for myself what kind of place Dachang City is, that it could produce so many talented people..."

"Moreover... Xiao Lu is still in Da J City and hasn't returned yet. If I go to Da Chang City in advance and wait there, when Xiao Lu returns to Da Chang City, he will definitely be shocked by me and marvel in his heart that this Venerable Ye has the ability to foresee the future?"

Perhaps because he read too many online novels, Ye Zhen's imagination is quite unique, even somewhat difficult to understand.

However, after careful consideration, his frustration vanished, and he regained his confidence.

Ye Zhen went downstairs in a pair of old leather shoes. Instead of taking the stairs or the elevator, he used a supernatural method.

A moment later, the clouds above Dachang City parted, and golden light shone through, brightening the sky that had been gloomy for so long.

Ye Zhen slowly emerged from the golden light, his face tense, his expression serious and solemn, like a celestial being descended to the mortal realm.

"Guanjiang Residential Area, this is it."

Since Lu Ming hasn't returned to Dachang City yet, he'll first meet the legendary Ghost Eye Yang Jian and see if he's here.

Unfortunately, Ye Zhen did not see Yang Jian, but only a young man who looked like a high school student.

The young man was carrying a wooden stick. When he saw Ye Zhen, he didn't avoid him and rushed over while cursing.

······
What Ye Zhen didn't know was that just now, Zhang Wei, with a wooden stick behind his back in one hand and a sausage in the other, was luring a shiny black dog at the entrance of the residential area.

Every night, this black dog barks wildly in the neighborhood as if it's in heat, keeping people awake.

So Zhang Wei came up with this plan to lure and kill.

Unfortunately, before it could succeed, Ye Zhen, who descended from the sky, scared the black dog away.

Zhang Wei was furious.

Regardless of whether Ye Zhen came down from the sky or from the ground, he charged at Ye Zhen with the dog-beating stick in hand.

Ye Zhen was also shocked.

I never expected this young man, who looked like a high school student, to be so brave.

"Heh heh, truly, heroes have always emerged from among the young..."

------

the other side.

Lu Ming was unaware that in Dachang City, the two legendary figures, Ye Zhen, the master of double fists, and Awei, the dual-wielding golden gun master, had already met.

He is also planning matters related to mastering the ghost painting.

The Ghost Painting, as the pinnacle of the Ghost Realm, first erupted in a certain European country. Its Ghost Realm could directly devour the entire country, forming a gray and white "world within a painting".

If Lu Ming can find a way to master Ghost Painting, he will make up for his shortcomings in the Ghost Realm and become a true top figure.

However, it's definitely impossible for him to master the ghost painting.

Only the bride can handle the ghost painting, and not the current bride.

According to the ghost puzzle theory, the original ghost bride was actually a complete vengeful ghost, but it was later dismembered by supernatural forces.

The dismembered ghost is like a broken puzzle piece; as long as you collect each piece and put it back together, the complete ghost can reappear.

There was once a woman who mastered ghost paintings and many other puzzles, but after her death, in order to minimize the horror she caused, she dismembered her own supernatural body.

If it were any other vengeful ghost, Lu Ming would only need to collect the puzzle pieces.

But ghost paintings are different.

The ghost's killing rules are extremely unique: recalling memories triggers a fatal killing pattern, therefore this ghost possesses the ability to recall the past...

In other words, to control the ghost painting, one must find a woman who looks exactly like the original ghost tamer as a vessel.

Are there really two people in this world who look exactly alike?

The answer is probably no.

But the supernatural can change this answer.

"To perfectly master the ghost painting, we must first find Ho Yuet-lin in Tai O City..."

“Many men love to lie and say that they love their girlfriend’s soul, not her face, but I’m different. What I want is He Yuelian’s face, or rather, her whole body.”

He Yuelian is not a ghost tamer; she is just an ordinary person whose appearance has been affected by supernatural phenomena.

If a ghost-controller who has dealt with ghost painting incidents were to see her, they would be horrified to discover that He Yuelian looks exactly like the woman in the ghost painting.

However, she herself was unaware of this and was kept in the dark.

Her existence was originally for Zhang Xianguang's Peach Blossom Spring Project.

In other words, the ghost paintings and ghost realms cover the whole world, allowing humans to live in the "paradise" within the paintings, keeping the evil spirits away.

Rather than imprisoning vengeful ghosts, Zhang Xianguang chose to imprison humans.

"If we touch the ghost painting, that old bastard Zhang Xianguang will probably get really angry."

"But there's no need to rush."

"I'll start with He Yuelian first, without alerting him. By the time Zhang Xianguang realizes what's happening, it will be too late to stop him..."

Lu Ming knew that with Elder Qin in charge of the headquarters, Zhang Xianguang would not easily take action under normal circumstances.

But if Lu Ming takes too big a step and pushes him too far, then things will be hard to say.

Zhang Xianguang was even willing to give his life for the Peach Blossom Spring Project.

Therefore, Lu Ming planned to slowly boil the frog in lukewarm water and gradually take action.

In the original timeline, Yang Jian's contact with He Yuelian was not hindered in any way.

This suggests that targeting He Yuelian first shouldn't be a problem.

　I caught a cold and have a bit of a headache. I slept all day, so it came on a little late.

　　I'll try to write it earlier tomorrow.
