Chapter 88 The Deal with Yang Jian (First Update, Please Subscribe!)
This simple sentence might seem nonsensical to others, who might not understand it at all.

But Yang Jian instantly understood Lu Ming's meaning, and his usually calm emotions surged into a turbulent storm.

"It" refers to human skin paper.

From the moment Yang Jian obtained the ghost from Fang Zheng at Dachang No. 7 Middle School, he carried it with him and used the information on it to resolve many crises.

Although Yang Jian felt that this thing definitely contained a trap, he couldn't bear to give it up.

Not to mention letting the parchment fall into the hands of others.

The question is... how did Lu Ming know that he had a strange piece of human skin paper?

Yang Jian was shocked when Wang Xiaoming suddenly approached him at the training base some time ago, wanting to exchange the right to use the human skin paper for artificial coffin nails.

Why is it that even Lu Ming now knows about the existence of the human skin paper?

Yang Jian was certain that he was extremely cautious every time he took out the human skin paper, making sure there were no other ghost tamers around, so there should have been no possibility of the information being leaked.

But Lu Ming still knew clearly that the human skin paper was in his hands.

There are only two explanations for this situation.

Either Lu Ming hacked into Wang Xiaoming's laboratory and used supernatural means to read Wang Xiaoming's memories.

Although Wang Xiaoming had Li Jun, a ghost tamer, as his bodyguard, Li Jun was nothing to Lu Ming.

For Lu Ming, making contact with Wang Xiaoming silently was not a difficult task.

This explanation was quite reasonable, but Yang Jian still felt that something was not right.

From the moment Yang Jian first met Lu Ming on the ghost bus, he had a deep impression of Lu Ming.

Eerie, chilling, and unpredictable.

He seems to be able to use some kind of supernatural means to obtain some key information.

"Perhaps... he also has a supernatural object similar to the human skin paper, but that thing is different from the human skin paper in that it can only know information that already exists, and cannot predict the future."

"Lu Ming wanted to foresee some things that would happen in the future, which is why he specifically came to me and wanted to borrow the human skin paper."

For some reason, Yang Jian had a vague premonition that perhaps the latter guess was correct.

Although surprised, Yang Jian remained outwardly calm and asked, "I don't quite understand. What exactly do you mean by 'it'?"

Lu Ming forced a stiff smile: "Yang Jian, we're all sensible people, there's no point in beating around the bush. I'm not taking your human skin paper, I'm just borrowing it for a while, right in front of you. I'll return it to you when I'm done... I'll help you, and you'll help me. With our combined strength, wouldn't it be a good thing to join forces?"

Yang Jian's expression froze, and he stopped denying it.

Lu Ming has already accurately mentioned the existence of the human skin paper, so it must not have come from Wang Xiaoming.

Even Wang Xiaoming was unaware of the existence of the human skin paper; he only knew that Yang Jian possessed an extremely special item that could provide important information and guidance.

Yang Jian's ghost eye on his forehead darted around, as if he was considering Lu Ming's suggestion.

His views on human skin paper have always been complicated.

This thing is very useful, but it seems to possess its own intelligence, so it's hard to say whether it might backfire at a crucial moment.

Just like before, the human skin paper often hid traps within the truth, leading Yang Jian to his death. Therefore, Yang Jian always maintained a sense of vigilance and caution regarding the existence of this ghostly thing.

To be honest, Lu Ming's words had already moved Yang Jian.

His so-called "you help me, I help you" is clearly an invitation to form an alliance.

Forming an alliance with Lu Ming isn't necessarily a bad thing. Cao Yanhua's attitude after the headquarters incursion shows that few at headquarters can really do anything to Lu Ming, and the truly capable old-timers are mostly hiding in the shadows…

Moreover, since it was only a one-time use of the human skin paper, it was not a loss for Yang Jian.

Conversely, if he refused the deal, it would not only break his relationship with Lu Ming, but also make Lu Ming covet the human skin paper in his possession.

This is an outcome that Yang Jian does not want to see.

Therefore, after some thought, Yang Jian looked at Lu Ming and said, "I don't object to you studying this human skin paper in my hand. However, I must tell you in advance that although this human skin paper cannot lie, it can hide terrifying traps in carefully prepared truths. If you rely on it too much, I'm afraid there will be no good results."

Without further ado, Yang Jian took out a small gold box.

Upon seeing the golden container in Yang Jian's hand, Lu Ming's expression became more serious.

He had known about the existence of the human skin paper for a long time, but knowing and actually seeing it with one's own eyes are two different things.

This thing is very eerie, but you have to admit that the information it provides is crucial and useful.

Although gold can ward off supernatural phenomena, it cannot stop this piece of paper. When the starving ghost incident broke out in Dachang City, the paper used physical means to open the gold container and escaped on its own.

Lu Ming opened the gold container and found that inside was just a very ordinary piece of yellow paper with many stains on the surface, looking very dirty and old.

It looks somewhat similar to sheepskin, but Lu Ming knows it's not sheepskin; it doesn't have the texture of sheepskin.

This is human skin peeled off a living person.

"You don't need to ask me how to use this?"

"No need, I know I'm already using it."

Lu Ming's voice was cold and his tone was flat.

As soon as he finished speaking, with a soft "poof," the streetlights flickered and then went out completely.

The surroundings were plunged into endless darkness.

This feeling was very familiar to Yang Jian.

Not long ago, when Yang Jian entered Lu Ming's ghost realm in the conference room, it was the exact same scene. However, this time, Yang Jian only heard the sound of rushing water and the puddles of water at his feet, but did not see any paper ash falling from the sky.

Just to be on the safe side, Lu Ming did not reach out and take out the human skin paper.

Behind him, a tall figure of a female ghost in white slowly appeared, placing her hand on Lu Ming's shoulder. After controlling the ghost fingernails, Sadako's pale hands became much more ferocious and looked extremely terrifying.

Sadako took the human skin paper out of the golden container on Lu Ming's behalf, and only handed it to Lu Ming after confirming that there was no danger.

The moment Lu Ming touched the human skin paper, a cold, chilling sensation crept up his back.

Crooked and distorted characters then mysteriously appeared on the surface of the human skin paper.
