Mysterious Revival: My Path Through the Door

Chapter 48 Unspeakable, Unwritten

Late at night, at the First Hospital of Dachang City.

Cao Yang lay on the hospital bed, raising his right hand. Under the thick gauze, his fingers could bend and straighten freely.

Only he knew that the so-called palm had almost no flesh left, basically just bones, and its ability to move was entirely due to supernatural forces.

This is the power of a vengeful ghost, ominous and terrifying.

While he was pondering, his private phone by his bedside was forcibly connected, and a dignified middle-aged man's voice came through.

"Cao Yang, why didn't you report any information about the supernatural abilities of the Star Gate Group members? Didn't Link allow you to observe the detention process? Also, why were you vague about the incident where eight Ghost Masters in the WeChat Moments were killed by five Ghost Masters in return? This is a serious dereliction of duty!"

Cao Yang's expression turned serious, and he said solemnly, "Vice Minister Cao, I witnessed the entire process of the Star Gate Group's detention operation, including the battle with the circle of friends, but I did not report it in detail because Link's supernatural power is very strong. It is a rare treasure of China and even humanity. I believe it should be classified as top secret, and no record should be left."

Link's file had previously been upgraded to top secret, but that very night, every member of the Xiaoqiang Club had a copy, making the headquarters' secrecy efforts a laughing stock.

Influenced by social media, the incident was successfully suppressed, but under the leadership of Vice Minister Cao, secrecy measures from the Republican era were employed.

It cannot be spoken of, nor written down; it is a secret within a secret, existing only in the minds of those who are absolutely loyal to the country.

A relieved laugh came through the receiver: "Good lad, you're quite the secretive one. You wouldn't tell me when your uncle asked. I heard you were in the hospital. How's your injury? Take care of yourself, or I won't be able to explain it to your older brother and sister-in-law..."

Cao Yang smiled, but pretended to be serious and said, "Vice Minister Cao, please address me by my title when we are working: Alternate Head of Dajin City. Today I am..."

"Starting tomorrow, you will be the person in charge of Dajin City. Cao Hai was caught in a paranormal event the day before yesterday. Today, I asked Li Jun to rescue him, but he has reached his limit and can only live for two more days."

Cao Yang's smile froze on his face, and his eyes stung with tears: "Brother Hai, is there really no hope?"

"Sigh... Professor Wang also said that instead of spending time saving him, it's better to spend time on other ghost tamers. At least others still have the hope of controlling a second vengeful ghost. Come back after the Dachang City incident is over, see Cao Hai one last time, and cheer up, take responsibility, and don't let down your uniform."

"...Okay, Uncle."

After hanging up the phone, Cao Yang's gaze remained fixed blankly on the ceiling, all the joy he felt at having obtained the "ghost stepping on man" item vanished.

Cao Hai, his cousin, his uncle's eldest son, had been his idol since childhood, and was also from Dajin City...

Suddenly I'm going to die?

He simply couldn't accept it!

Cao Yang's thoughts were churning, and he even considered using Jiang Shangbai to trample on people in exchange for a chance to save Cao Hai's life.

He quickly slapped himself across the face and gave a bitter laugh: "If I do this, Hai-ge will only beat me up, or even sever his obsession and let the vengeful ghost resurrect... If only I could let him control the second vengeful ghost, even if it would only allow him to live a little longer."

"The second ghost..."

As if possessed, he recalled what Link had said to Zhang Han, who was about to be resurrected as a vengeful ghost, at the market that day: "With me here, you won't die."

Cao Yang's eyes focused instantly, his heart raced, and he seemed to know a way to save Cao Hai's life!

He jumped out of bed, rushed out of the ward, pulled out his GPS-enabled phone, and told the operator, "I need to get back to Dajing City as soon as possible, by airline or private jet, the fastest I can get!"

……

It's 6:30 in the morning.

Link sat up straight in bed, his black eyes, devoid of any white, swept over the burn and frost marks on the bed, and he got out of bed to wash up without expression.

The restlessness of the vengeful spirit within him had subsided, but the terror of the summoning ghost hand had increased slightly, yet it was still firmly suppressed by the apprentice ghost.

At seven o'clock, Link came downstairs, where Qi Wanhe had already prepared breakfast and invited him to eat.

"My bed sheet is torn again. Remember to call the cleaning service to change it. Things might be a bit turbulent these days. Yang Jian and Zhao Lei have nothing to do, so they can hang out with you guys and have some big meals."

"Okay, boss, I guarantee I'll get the job done!"

After breakfast, a faint blue light shone around Link's body, and the next moment, a sealed golden box appeared in his palm.

He cut a slit in it with a saw and pulled out a piece of parchment: "Speak."

Half a minute passed, and not a single radical appeared on the parchment. It seemed to know that Link was replicating its supernatural power and that it could not gain any benefit from it, so it simply started to slack off.

Link snorted coldly: "Fine, don't talk. I'm too lazy to waste my time with you. I'll eat you up, and everything you have will be mine."

He opened his mouth, and inside were not normal human lips, teeth, and tongue, but rows and rows of interlocking, overlapping sharp teeth, like a black hole that could devour everything.

This is the supernatural power within the "ghost infant," also known as the hungry ghost infant. After being fused with the apprentice ghost, Link also possesses this supernatural power.

Devour the vengeful spirit!

Although it takes time to process, the supernatural power gained will not be diminished.

Previously, Link had been preparing to devour a more powerful ghost to increase his combat options, but he hadn't used it yet.

As he came into more and more contact with the vengeful ghost, he felt that in the near future, his wish would be fulfilled.

Link's mouth opened wider and wider, seemingly without limit. In just a few breaths, it was wide enough to fit a basketball. His deep, dark mouth was filled with a dense array of sharp teeth, sending chills down one's spine.

Link did this half-heartedly.

The paranormal properties of parchment are indeed impressive, but occupying the digestive space of a starving ghost for an extended period is simply not worth it.

Of course, if the parchment refuses to cooperate and stubbornly resists to the end, Link wouldn't mind devouring and digesting it.

The parchment finally gave in, revealing its own speed, comparable to a web novel writer who could produce 50,000 to 60,000 words a day.

My name is Link. By the time you see this, I will already be dead...

Link paid no attention to the nonsense on it, his eyes fixed on the illusory pages turning as he recorded the supernatural power of the parchment six times in a row.

He decisively closed the box, welded it shut with a welding torch, and used the Ghost Domain to teleport back thousands of meters underground. He prepared to use astrology combined with the supernatural properties of parchment to select a suitable vengeful ghost for Zhang Han to control.

"A vengeful ghost that Zhang Han can control."

"Suitable for Zhang Han to pull off..."

The eerie interplay of the deep blue star map and the ink wash on parchment creates a replay of yesterday's battle.

The main character in the scene is He Tianxiong, with a patch of rotting flesh on his chest that is particularly conspicuous. The scene ends with He Tianxiong's body being put into a gold body bag.

"Zhang Han's ghost tattoo relies heavily on the integrity of the skin, while the ghost rotten flesh can destroy the integrity of the body. As long as someone is there to help suppress it, the two can indeed form a supernatural confrontation and achieve a balance between the two ghosts. Moreover, the ghost rotten flesh has a good survival ability. As long as it does not encounter a mental attack, it can survive."

Lin Ke pondered for a moment, then dialed Zhang Han's number, informed him of the plan, and pointed out its negative impacts.

"The rotten flesh of the ghost will cause your whole body to start to rot. You've seen what He Tianxiong looks like, so it's probably damaged your image."

Zhang Han's goal is to survive. What use is a handsome appearance to an old man?

He immediately and excitedly agreed: "Link, I agree. If possible, I'd like to come find you right now and tame the second vengeful spirit!"

"Alright, let's do it in my villa. Call Yan Li over with you. I'll separate He Tianxiong's ghost first."

Separating the vengeful spirits is not difficult, because the two spirits are fighting for the same body. Link only needs to use the replica of the headless ghost to suppress the rotting flesh of the ghost to easily extract it.

"Ding-dong"

The doorbell rang, and what came into view was Zhang Han's pale face with a stubble beard and Yan Li, who was full of energy, along with two uninvited guests behind him.

Cao Yang, and a young man who bore a striking resemblance to him.

The young man's eyes were lifeless, and his withered, corpse-like body twitched from time to time. Several times, he was driven by the instincts of a vengeful ghost and wanted to attack all the living people present, but he was restrained by the golden rope binding his waist.

This is a sign that a vengeful ghost is about to resurrect.

"Cao Yang? Didn't I tell you to come back tomorrow? I don't deal in live ghost tamers here; it's illegal."

Cao Yang forced a smile and put his arm around the young man's shoulder: "Today is indeed a big deal. As long as you help my brother solve the problem of the resurrected vengeful ghost, I'll give you two white ghost incense sticks."

Link pulled Zhang Han into the villa, saying without turning his head, "One red incense stick. If you don't want it, get lost."

"make a deal!"

Cao Yang brazenly led Cao Hai into the villa, openly surveying the place. Seeing the gold body bags piled up like grains in the corner, he couldn't help but swallow hard.

Actually, there was another ghost on the peddler's list among the people in my WeChat Moments yesterday, but unfortunately, he didn't have the ability to take on two at once.

"Link, Mr. Link, are you going to have Zhang Han control a second ghost now? Can I just stand by and watch?"

Meeting Link's suspicious gaze, Cao Yang patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, I haven't mentioned a word about your information to anyone else. Moreover, I have already applied to my superiors to upgrade your information level to top secret."

It cannot be spoken of, nor can it be written down!
