and many more,

Time...moment!?

The middle-aged man's expression suddenly paused in the middle of his words. He turned his head sharply to look at Li Re as if he had thought of something!

Li Re couldn't help but laugh at his reaction.

So he actually laughed out loud: "It seems you have thought of it too."

"In fact, there is no need to completely change the present, because the 'present' is linked to all the past, so all you need to do is turn the clock that records the 'present'."

"And what happened was that I just came down from the thing with the 'clock' on it, and I happened to leave something on it." Li Re raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and flames filled the tower!

...

Crackling.

Green flames flickered in the dark corners.

At the point in time 'now'.

The evening wind was howling coldly in front of the bus that was lying across the road. The three people who had been huddled under the bus had been out of danger for a while, but at this moment they were still tense and did not dare to relax at all.

Suddenly!

Old Tang's ears moved slightly and he raised his head as if he heard something.

Then his expression suddenly changed.

He uttered the two words very quickly and angrily: "Fuck!"

Then he suddenly grabbed the two people next to him and laid down forward!

There was a bang.

The blazing spiritual fire rose up from the inside of the bus and spread like a giant tree. The bus, which seemed extremely normal in the previous second, was covered by the strange dark green flames in just an instant.

A moment of cold fire.

Abnormally cold!

Chapter 190: The Man Who Became a Ghost

The spiritual fire of the supernatural ghost bus surged almost non-stop, and the iron vehicle seemed to ignite at a touch like dry firewood in the fire. The three people who fell to the ground in an instant were stunned and horrified, and at the same time they suddenly reacted as if they thought of something - they realized that the fire in front of them was exactly the same as the fire that Li Re had displayed when he was fighting against the evil spirit before, and they also realized that this scene must be related to Li Re.

And on the bus, there were also 'someone' who staggered and thought of this... Feng Ling, who was sitting in a back seat of the bus, suddenly widened his eyes and let out a light sigh.

She blinked her eyes, and then suddenly let out a clear, wind chime-like laugh that sounded pure yet extremely strange.

Along with the laughter.

There was also the slight vibration of the bus.

There was a ticking sound from the 'clock' located in front of the driver's seat and behind the steering wheel - it was clearly an electronic clock, but at this moment it sounded like an old-fashioned wall clock with a swinging pendulum.

The 'time' on the electronic clock is also changed by this sound, from ten to nine...

It seems like it is being pushed forward by something!

Align to the past - the moment of the beginning -

"here we go."

At this time, Li Re also made a low sound.

Standing in the bedroom at the end of the alley, in the deep courtyard of the mansion, and also standing in the first of the sealed cages that are constantly circulating at every moment, he exhaled a cold and strange breath, and the crackling sound continued and trembled on his body.

Xinggong Yue, dressed in her wedding gown, stood silently behind him.

Dead silent and gloomy.

The middle-aged man standing opposite Li Re was looking at the cold spiritual fire that spread to the entire "moment" in front of him. After being surprised, his expression suddenly became complicated - he withdrew his gaze from the scene outside the window where layers of green shadows were intertwined like vines, and looked seriously at the front - he could feel the changes happening at this moment, and he could also feel what was happening in the "now" at the other end of the seal.

Everything is crystal clear.

however.

"You are looking for death."

He spoke in a low voice, something that seemed provocative but was actually straightforward.

Yes, it is straightforward - and also more genuine. Li Re's behavior is just as he said, he is seeking death.

It is certainly difficult to just hold the two ends of the seal, but it is not impossible to do it.

The real difficulty,

It is the behavior after pulling the two ends.

It is the 'tightening' in the process of aligning time - tightening the entire 'line', driving more than 100,000 'time cages' in the seal!

When one part moves, the whole body moves.

Even if the loss is smaller than the impact of each 'cage'.

But that's still a huge scale.

For anyone, it is an astronomical figure!

Li Re certainly knew this, and he thought to himself that if it weren't for this, he wouldn't bother to do it - he couldn't help but grin at the middle-aged man's words, and laughed out loud quite happily.

He said: "For those of us who walk the spiritual world, death is just another beginning, an unknown, brand new beginning, isn't it?"

"What's more, I may not die." Anyway, death or life, it's a win for Li Re!

His words echoed in the air.

A world of cold spiritual fire.

The noisy little ghosts had disappeared - they were pulled back into the "Spiritual Court" by Li Re.

These little ghosts are different from the wind spirits.

They have no substance.

It is actually a ghost in spirit form.

And now, the world is silent, and everything is undergoing tremendous changes in the mysterious flames. The buildings that originally stood have become visibly mottled and old, the originally clean walls are covered with dense moss, and the originally flat road surface is showing signs of weathering damage... It is as if the whole world has pressed the fast-forward button, and time is moving forward at an extraordinary speed.

The only constant is

Only Li Re was standing here.

And the middle-aged man who was listening to Li Re's words.

No, Li Re was not unchanged... He was also suffering from the wear and tear of time. The blood and flesh in his body became withered in an instant. He soon became extremely thin and very old!

This is the loss of vitality.

It is the passage of 'time'.

Corresponding to this, there is also the change in the number of words on the clock on the bus at the 'now' moment!

Before and after.

The time of 'first' and 'last' is slowly approaching here.

Li Re closed his eyes.

He disappeared.

The supernatural fire was getting more and more rampant - the middle-aged man who was chewing on his words stopped where he was, and he also knew that Li Re's disappearance was a process of traveling from the 'beginning' at this moment to the 'moment' in the future.

at the same time.

The green light covering the ghost bus also shot up into the sky in an instant.

Rushing towards the 'moment' ahead.

The flames instantly ignited the sky of the ghost town that had been dark for thirty years!

Feng Ling's laughter became clearer and clearer. She was very happy—so happy that she clapped her hands in excitement! Old Tang and the other two lay on the ground in a daze.

The middle-aged man at the 'first' position also suddenly laughed.

He spoke in a low voice, as if talking to himself, or more like talking to the disappeared Li Re: "You are such a dishonest young man - you have deceived me for the second time."

"You are not the person I tricked into the ghost town. That person doesn't have the same awareness as you!" The middle-aged man said with certainty and determination.

He paced the fire.

Go through the door.

And walked through the empty hall.

He walked slowly into the alley - the firelight under his feet flickered like ripples, and he looked up at the sky as if he was walking through water.

Murmuring to himself.

The man chuckled again.

"But I also lied to you - I don't have any ancestors or elders."

"I am the one who created this ghost town."

Thirty years ago, there was a great epidemic in the world, and all life was wiped out.

That was also thirty years ago.

In this ghost town, there once lived a couple.

The husband is a human being, and the wife is a ghost.

"Thirty years, time has passed so quickly."

The middle-aged man sighed in a low voice: "It's like a dream."

"But dreams must eventually end. Perhaps what that young man said is right. Death is just the beginning of another, even more unknown world. If he can face the unknown and death so calmly, he might really be able to completely solve this ghost town. Just like you."

“Although this is not what I envisioned.”

"But I didn't stop him at the beginning, but chose to acquiesce. Now there is no way to stop him... My time is almost up, and things have developed to this point. It's time for me to make a decision."

"Is this considered a layer of 'insurance'?"

"After all, if he fails, with you and me here, this ghost town won't get completely out of control!"

In such words.

The spiritual fires on both sides suddenly swayed like fallen weeds.

Silently.

A cold and strange figure appeared behind the middle-aged man.

She was a rather beautiful middle-aged woman.

A 'ghost'.

She stood silently, staring quietly at the middle-aged man in front of her, her eyes seemingly cold but never moving away.

Ruthless, yet seemingly affectionate.

The middle-aged man looked at her and suddenly remembered the scenes of his travels in the world when he was young. He remembered the scene when he, a scholar, met the woman who claimed to be "the descendant of Maoshan" and was still a girl. He also thought of their subsequent acquaintance and love... and how she, who had been married for many years but still had not improved her heart, committed suicide to save the world and turned into a ghost. Her resentment broke through the sky, but after her death she still did not forget his attitude - she became a fierce ghost controlled by him, using this power to save the world, and staying with him with this attitude.

Yes.

The middle-aged man's supernatural powers all came from his wife, who used to be a "practitioner".

He used her power to create this ghost town and trapped hundreds of thousands of evil spirits. She also used it to stay by his side, and there has been no retaliation for thirty years.

And he had made an agreement with her back then.

I will go to accompany her after I solve the 'ghost town'.

The term is 'thirty years'.

just now.

"The agreed time is almost here."

The middle-aged man smiled and stretched out his hand to the 'ghost' behind him. He didn't care about the ghost's coldness and chill. He just rubbed her head and whispered: "Thirty years have passed - we are no longer young."

"The 'protagonist' is now someone else."

"But before the time comes, I still want to see what that young man can do."
