Heavenly Eye Zhang Ze
First floor of Furen Mall.
Master Luo walked into the hall with an air of importance, took out a peach wood sword, and his disciples arranged for him to have a whole bunch of props for pretending to be a ghost, such as black dog blood, cinnabar, boy's urine, and cow's tears. With his solemn performance, he completely fooled Boss Tang.
The first floor of the mall was mostly occupied by abandoned clothing stores. These businesses moved out in such a hurry that they didn't even have time to remove the mannequins from their shops. These mannequins seemed to come alive, facing Master Luo in a bizarre pose.
Danger is approaching.
Master Luo, however, was completely unaware.
"Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits..."
"May the Heavenly Venerable bestow boundless blessings..."
"The thunderous roar of the Nine Heavens resounds, spreading its power..."
Master Luo was chanting incantations when, halfway there, he suddenly noticed a mannequin displayed in front of the Feiqi shop. "When was this put here?" he wondered.
"Um?"
A sudden sense of unease arose within me.
The hand gestures and incantations stopped abruptly, and he instinctively turned to look at Boss Tang and his disciples.
In the instant he turned around.
Suddenly, a huge, headless, humanoid black shadow appeared on the surface of the dummy, grabbed Master Luo's head, and easily removed it like disassembling building blocks!
The whole process took less than three seconds.
Master Luo's headless corpse fell heavily to the ground.
Only the disciples and Boss Tang remained silent.
"Murder!!!"
It's haunted!!!
The crowd erupted in terrified screams, instinctively trying to flee Furen Mall. Boss Tang ran haphazardly to the back door, inserted the key into the lock, but found that he couldn't open the door no matter what he did.
I tried several spare keys, but I still couldn't open the door.
What happened?
"I don't remember locking it."
Boss Tang got anxious.
The current situation is completely beyond his expectations.
Master Luo's death triggered a chain reaction.
As the disciples who fled were about to turn around, new Headless Ghost Shadow would appear and rip off their heads. Despite their attempts to resist, neither peach wood swords nor anything else could harm the Headless Ghost Shadow.
At this critical moment, Boss Tang suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
Through the reflection in the glass, he saw that the mannequin had appeared behind him at some point.
"It's all over!" Boss Tang felt a chill in his heart.
However, the scene of his head being removed did not appear; he only heard a voice in his ear.
"If you don't want to die, don't turn your back on Fierce Ghost."
"Do as I say."
"Face him, and you'll live!"
"If you don't understand... lie on the ground and roll out like a caterpillar!"
The voice was transmitted by Yang Jian to Boss Tang through the Ghost Domain.
When Boss Tang saw Yang Jian, he looked at him like a savior. "Save me! I'll give you any amount of money. I don't want to die. I have a wife, three sons, more than a dozen houses, and I haven't even spent all my money yet..."
Yang Jian:...
Master Luo and several of his disciples were killed.
Yang Jian needs to at least protect Boss Tang, otherwise no one will pay him.
Following his instructions, Boss Tang lay down on the ground, avoiding turning his back to the Headless Ghost Shadow. Sure enough, the Headless Ghost Shadow stopped attacking Boss Tang.
The commotion attracted the attention of others.
Sister Li from the HR department and Liu Qiang, the security guard, also rushed to the scene. They were horrified to see several headless corpses lying haphazardly on the ground.
Sister Li tried calling the police.
But then I found that my phone had no signal.
Zhang Ze also arrived at the scene shortly afterward.
"It seems the situation has changed, and I have to take action myself."
"You?" Yang Jian glanced at Zhang Ze. "The helper you told me about is a good-for-nothing, and you're not Ghost Controller either. The most important thing right now is to find a way to escape."
"Considering you told me about your killing patterns, I can use my Ghost Domain to safely send you away, how about it?"
Goodness!
Yang Jian is a cunning and shrewd guy.
By sending Zhang Ze away, Yang Jian would essentially no longer be responsible for Zhang Ze, thus getting the information for free.
Zhang Ze naturally wouldn't agree.
"If I leave, there will be no one here to help you keep the Headless Ghost Shadow in check, and you won't be able to earn this money," Zhang Ze said.
Yang Jian sneered.
"Do you think you're the only security guard?"
He was naturally referring to Liu Qiang.
Liu Qiang is also a security guard; he can help him too.
"Then take a closer look?"
Zhang Ze pointed to Liu Qiang, who looked terrified, standing to the side.
After seeing Master Luo's headless corpse, Liu Qiang subconsciously touched his own neck and felt a thin line of blood, with a clean cut encircling his neck.
His head was replaced a long time ago.
He was already Ghost Slave of the Headless Ghost Shadow.
No wonder he didn't feel anything strange in the mall recently; his head had already been removed by the Headless Ghost Shadow, making him essentially dead, so he wouldn't be attacked anymore.
The touch broke the skin, and blood flowed down the wound, bringing tears to Liu Qiang's eyes.
"Save me, I don't want to die..."
Liu Qiang's head tilted to the side, and he fell to the ground like a ball.
A foul odor erupted.
Yang Jian remained silent.
Sister Li was the same. After discovering that her head had been replaced, her head lost its support and fell to the ground. Only Yang Jian and Zhang Ze were left alive in the entire Furen Mall.
But the Headless Ghost Shadow was still secretly watching the two.
"We are in the light, the ghosts are in the dark."
"The ghost has started killing people."
Our only advantage is that we know the patterns of murder.
"But there were no tools for imprisonment, nor any means of countermeasures."
"My Ghost Eye can detect Headless Ghost Shadow, but judging from the fact that these Headless Ghost Shadow can switch heads at will, there should only be one true Headless Ghost Shadow."
"The others are all his Ghost Slave."
Yang Jian analyzed.
Zhang Ze nodded slightly.
Lacking the Yan Li of the Ghost Blood, and lacking a strong means of suppression, meant he had to use a riskier method to make contact with the Headless Ghost Shadow.
In reality...
Zhang Ze has a thousand ways to easily capture the Headless Ghost Shadow.
But in the story of "Make Nightmare Dreams Come True," Zhang Ze is just an ordinary person.
The only thing that can affect the situation is one's life.
"Do you remember how you escaped the Ghost Domain of the Knock-on-the-Door Ghost from Dachang City. No. 7 Middle School? You gouged out your own Ghost Eye and swallowed it whole. It wasn't until you ate the sixth one that your Ghost Domain was strong enough to tear through the Knock-on-the-Door Ghost's Ghost Domain."
Yang Jian:...
How do you even know that?
He's Ghost Eye Yang Jian, could this be Heavenly Eye Zhang Ze?
But now is not the time to dwell on how Zhang Ze knows so much about him. Yang Jian thought for a moment, "Are you suggesting I eat the Ghost Eye again?"
"You're not Ghost Controller, you don't know that these ghosts can revive as Fierce Ghost. The last adventure greatly accelerated the revival of the Ghost Eye. You're making it sound so casual, do you think the ghosts in your house can't revive?"
