Yang Jian explored the medium in Room 301, linking its owner and supernatural artifacts to Old Qin and the supernatural bus. He then entered the bedroom, where the corpse stench led him to a body lying behind the curtains of an old red bed.

• Yang Jian saw the Faceless Puppet awaken after the old woman drew a face on it, then lose its connection to the medium and disappear from view.
• Yang Jian found a sketch of his father and reasoned that the supernatural bus connected Room 301 to events across three eras and might have a final stop where evil ghosts got off.
• Yang Jian left the room without taking the sketch, briefly suspected it had moved, and shut the door before entering the room opposite.
• Yang Jian recognized the bedroom's sandalwood scent and detected the smell of a corpse beneath it.
• Yang Jian saw an old red-lacquered canopy bed with curtains concealing a corpse lying on it.

Yang Jian discovered that the corpse in Room 301 was the dead owner of the room and that its ghost had begun invading reality, while Li Yi died outside and appeared to be controlled by supernatural power. After sending Li Lepeng away and completing the ghost shadow’s puzzle, Yang Jian began risking its invasion of his consciousness as Room 301 lost control.

• Yang Jian triggered the hatchet’s medium in Room 301 and saw the dead old woman from the bed invade reality, then escaped when the ghost remained after he cut off the medium.
• Yang Jian found Li Yi dead and learned the messengers might have delivered the letter to the wrong building; a ghost-controlled Li Yi appeared, and Yang Jian destroyed him with his ghost hand.
• Yang Jian summoned Li Lepeng, assigned him to handle the Room 301 incident, and sent him away from Mingyue Residential Area.
• Yang Jian took the coffin nail and completed the ghost shadow, gambling that the Music Box Curse would protect his consciousness from its invasion.
• Room 301 lost control as the building’s lights went out, and Yang Jian sent Li Yang to wait across the way while he faced the ghost shadow’s attempt to take over his body.

Yang Jian endured the ghost shadow’s invasion as the music-box curse shielded his consciousness from being consumed, though the fusion with countless memories left him in agony. As he finally began to recover, Liu Qingqing and a black-and-white old man left the building, while the corpse from Room 301 vanished from its bed and began wandering toward the open door.

• Yang Jian’s consciousness was nearly swallowed by the ghost shadow, but the music-box curse kept him from falling asleep and disappearing.
• Countless memories of people from Dachuan City flooded Yang Jian’s mind, causing him to scream and writhe as the ghost shadow repaired his twisted body.
• Li Yang told Yang Xiaohua to wait, arguing that Yang Jian had likely anticipated the danger; Yang Xiaohua realized she did not want him to die.
• After ten minutes, Yang Jian’s struggling eased as the curse’s ringing became clear again, though a cold presence remained in his mind.
• Liu Qingqing and a black-and-white old man left the building as the fierce ghost from Room 301 was released.
• The corpse disappeared from the wooden bed in Room 301 and began wandering through the room toward its open door.

Yang Jian remained conscious but lost control of his body as the ghost shadow invaded him, eventually managing to move one hand. A black-and-white ghost from the past approached and began erasing Yang Jian from reality, seemingly using his death to enter the present.

• Li Yang and Yang Xiaohua watched from a distance as a black-and-white old man wandered near the residential building, unaffected by Yang Jian's Ghost Domain.
• Yang Jian's body became corpse-like while the Music Box Curse kept him conscious, and he realized he had merged with the ghost shadow but could not control his body.

Yang Jian was being erased by the ghost from Room 301 while the shadow ghost controlled his body, leaving him desperate to reach the coffin nail. Liu Qingqing appeared and used her supernatural cheongsam to approach, giving Yang Jian the chance to suppress the shadow ghost.

• The ghost from Room 301 erased Yang Jian's body as it became increasingly real.
• Li Yang saw Yang Jian reaching for the coffin nail and rushed to help, while Yang Xiaohua warned him to be careful.
• Liu Qingqing appeared in a red cheongsam and stopped Li Yang from approaching the ghost.
• Liu Qingqing endured the ghost's erasure with the protection of her cheongsam, picked up the coffin nail, and placed it in Yang Jian's hand.
• Yang Jian drove the coffin nail into the shadow ghost, temporarily suppressing it and ending its control over his body.

Yang Jian opened the seventh layer of the Ghost Domain while a terrifying ghost erased his body. He discovered that the seventh layer reset himself to an earlier point in time, restoring the body the ghost had erased.

• Yang Jian pinned down the Ghost Shadow with the coffin nail and used the fifth- and sixth-layer Ghost Domains to slow his erasure and freeze the ghost.
• Yang Jian kept the sixth-layer Ghost Domain active for nearly two minutes, but the ghost's attack resumed as the domain began to fail.
• Yang Jian chose to open the seventh-layer Ghost Domain, causing the residential building and the ghost to disappear from his surroundings.
• Yang Jian realized the Music Box Curse's chime was playing in reverse and that his body was returning to its previous state.
• Yang Jian understood that the seventh-layer Ghost Domain reset only himself, with the amount of time reversed depending on how long he maintained it.

Yang Jian restarted himself to recover from the old man’s erasure, then sought a way to stop the ghost from targeting him. He used the broken doll from Room 301 to redirect the attack, forcing the old man’s invasion to fade, though the doll began suffering the supernatural effects.

• Yang Jian maintained the seventh layer of the Ghost Domain long enough to restore his body, but the Ghost Eye’s revival began suppressing the Music Box Curse, so he exited the restart.
• Li Yang saw Yang Jian reappear fully restored after only a few seconds had passed outside the Ghost Domain.
• Yang Jian realized the black-and-white old man was still targeting him and that his Ghost Domain, hatchet, and coffin nail could not safely stop it.
• Yang Jian teleported elsewhere in Mingyue Residential Area, but the old man followed, so he reassembled the broken doll from Room 301.
• Yang Jian turned the doll toward the old man, redirecting the attack onto it and interrupting the old man’s invasion as the doll began to fade and struggle.

Yang Jian used the old doll to stop a ghost from invading reality, recovered the misleading letter, and sealed off Mingyue Residential Area before leaving to seek a way to deal with the Music Box Curse and ghost shadow invasion. Yang Xiaohua returned to the Ghost Post Office, where Sun Rui demanded to know what had happened.

• Yang Jian used the old doll to redirect a ghost's supernatural attack and learned that the doll moved when it saw someone and attacked when someone met its gaze.
• Yang Jian decided not to confront the remaining ghost in Building Nine, then froze the building with his Ghost Domain and retrieved the letter from Room 301.
• Liu Qingqing revealed that the faceless wooden puppet was inside her body and explained that she had survived as a layer of human skin sustained by supernatural power.
• Yang Jian completed the delivery by sending the letter to a dark house, then told Yang Xiaohua to return to the Ghost Post Office, where Sun Rui confronted her about the third-floor events.
• Yang Jian recovered the Music Box Curse and the doll, sent the Seeking Ghost to Li Lepeng, and used his Ghost Domain to wall off Mingyue Residential Area.
• Yang Jian left with Li Yang, postponing the Ghost Post Office while he sought a way to survive the Music Box Curse and ghost shadow invasion.

Yang Jian returned to Dachang City while grappling with the Music Box Curse and the out-of-control ghost shadow, and he decided to seek help from the human skin paper. He left Wang Shanshan’s mansion with the ghost child as his next step, while his survival remained uncertain.

• Li Yang reported the unresolved Room 301 incident to Headquarters as an A-class event, and Yang Jian sketched the room for his own file.
• Yang Jian considered ways to survive the Music Box Curse, including merging with the ghost shadow and consulting the human skin paper.
• Yang Jian and Li Yang arrived in Dachang City, where Yang Jian told Li Yang to rest while he dealt with his condition.
• Yang Jian used the Ghost Domain to reach Wang Shanshan’s mansion and told her he would be gone for several days to address his problem.
• Wang Shanshan revealed that a Ghost Eye was forming on her arm, and Yang Jian went to retrieve the human skin paper guarded by the ghost child.

Yang Jian tested the human skin paper for a way to survive the music box’s curse, but its advice remained suspect and pointed toward a mystery about human consciousness. With two and a half days left, he began preparing a weapon that ghosts could not use in case his powers revived after his death.

• Yang Jian opened the human skin paper and rejected its apparent wish to explore the third door in the Republican-era mansion as a deadly trap.
• Yang Jian ordered Ghost Child to eat the paper, forcing it to reveal a plan involving the music box’s curse, the ghost shadow, and the question of human consciousness.
• Yang Jian stopped Ghost Child and read the paper’s proposed solution: let the curse erupt, release the coffin nail’s suppression, cover his face with the paper, and sleep.
• Yang Jian distrusted the proposed solution and focused on the question of human consciousness as a possible clue to surviving the curse.
• Yang Jian put the paper back in the golden ball around Ghost Child’s neck and entered the workshop to make a Supernatural Weapon that ghosts could not control.

Yang Jian began turning his supernatural weapons into a single spear, but the gold proved too soft, so he left the safehouse to order specialty steel. After restoring his body with Huang Ziya’s Liar Ghost, he learned that Dr. Chen from the Ping An Technology Research Base was at the company and went to meet him.

• Yang Jian embedded a hatchet and a coffin nail in a gold spear, leaving gaps so he could still use their supernatural powers, but the weapon bent when he swung it.
• Yang Jian left the Ghost Child at Guangjiang Residential Area and used his Ghost Domain to appear in Shangtong Building.
• Yang Jian used Huang Ziya’s Liar Ghost to heal his body, then purified the darkened crystal necklace with his Ghost Eye.
• Tong Qian told Yang Jian that Dr. Chen, whom he had met at the Ping An Technology Research Base, was staying in the company dormitory, and Yang Jian left to find him.
• Yang Jian asked Tong Qian to arrange an order for one ton of each type of specialty steel; Huang Ziya and Tong Qian discussed his worsening condition and the new head on his Ghost Shadow.

Dr. Chen explained to Yang Jian how supernatural forces could affect human consciousness and how ghosts might possess a person's thoughts. Yang Jian left after naming Dr. Chen a company consultant, apparently having found an answer to his question about whether restored memories could preserve a person's identity.

• Dr. Chen reassured his assistants that joining Yang Jian's company in Dachang City offered safety and a chance to build a future.
• Yang Jian appeared in Dr. Chen's dormitory through a Ghost Domain and asked about research into human consciousness.
• Dr. Chen explained that ordinary consciousness could not resist supernatural erosion and described how a crashed ghost might be controlled by a person, while an uncrashed ghost could control them.
• Dr. Chen said consciousness was a collection of memories, and answered that a person whose lost memories were replaced with identical ones would still be alive.
• Yang Jian thanked Dr. Chen, appointed him a consultant for his company, and vanished as the Ghost Domain faded.

Yang Jian returned to Safe House No. 1 to prepare for the Music Box Curse, which was due to erupt the next afternoon. He devised a way to preserve his identity if Ghost Shadow took over and prepared a supernatural spear and a gold-lined coffin before facing the curse.

• Yang Jian told Tong Qian that he would isolate himself for three days and asked him to seal Safe House No. 1 and watch over Dachang City if he died.
• Yang Jian brought Zhang Liqin home, arranged for a ten-person safe house to be built in his hometown, and had her record his recent experiences before he left for Safe House No. 1.
• Yang Jian concluded that Ghost Shadow might preserve his memories after his death and decided to use the bloodstained old newspaper to reinforce the words “I am Yang Jian.”
• Yang Jian forged a golden spear incorporating the cleaver and coffin nail, using cracks in its surface so his Ghost Domain could reach the cleaver and form its medium.
• Yang Jian built a gold-lined iron coffin to serve as his burial place if he died while dealing with the Music Box Curse.

Yang Jian sealed himself in a coffin to survive the Music Box Curse, unaware that Feng Quan’s plea for help would draw Tong Qian and Zhang Han into a fight with the Ghost Tamers hunting him. The chapter left Tong Qian and Zhang Han facing Liao Fan, Pei Dong, and a third attacker while Yang Jian remained unable to respond.

• Yang Jian sealed himself inside his gold-jointed coffin, covered his face with the bloodstained old newspaper, and released the ghost shadow while the Music Box Curse held it at bay.
• Feng Quan sent his team a distress message from the outskirts of Dachang City, and Tong Qian and Zhang Han took a helicopter to investigate.
• Liao Fan, Pei Dong, and a third Ghost Tamer pursued Feng Quan in an old taxi and struck him down with a supernatural attack, triggering the revival of his Grave Soil ghost.
• Tong Qian and Zhang Han arrived as Feng Quan lay incapacitated, and Liao Fan’s group realized Yang Jian had not come to help.
• Tong Qian confronted the three attackers and declared that they should die, then her ghost face smiled as Liao Fan ordered his group to attack.

Tong Qian and Zhang Han confronted Liao Fan, Xu Feng, and Pei Dong after Feng Quan was killed, while the ghost fog began reviving. Tong Qian’s laughter grew stronger through its echoes, but Zhang Han died protecting her as the fourfold wave reached the fight.

• The ghost fog spread as Feng Quan remained buried and unconscious, and Tong Qian and Zhang Han prepared to fight Liao Fan’s group.
• Xu Feng used his Hugging Ghost to restrain Tong Qian and Zhang Han while Pei Dong moved in to kill them.
• Zhang Han risked using both ghosts’ powers to break Xu Feng’s restraint, and Tong Qian unleashed her ghostly laughter.
• Liao Fan used Ghost Calling Person to make Tong Qian turn around, but her second ghost face turned instead and avoided death.
• Tong Qian’s laughter echoed and grew stronger, while Zhang Han grabbed Pei Dong and was killed when Pei Dong erased his consciousness.
• Tong Qian’s tears fell as the second wave of echoes returned at four times the strength.

Tong Qian’s ghostly laughter killed Pei Dong and forced Liao Fan and Xu Feng into a supernatural taxi as they tried to escape. Liao Fan drove into the city after knocking Tong Qian off the highway, leaving her fate uncertain.

• Tong Qian refused Liao Fan’s offer to stop fighting, and her third wave of laughter killed Pei Dong.
• Liao Fan and Xu Feng retreated into the supernatural taxi to avoid Tong Qian’s laughter, but the vehicle repeatedly failed to start.
• Tong Qian chased the taxi and tried to open its door as the fourth wave of laughter entered the cabin.
• Liao Fan finally started the taxi, honked to drown out the laughter, and drove into the Ghost Domain as the fifth wave began.
• The taxi reappeared behind Tong Qian and struck her, sending her off the highway before Liao Fan continued toward the city with Xu Feng.

Tong Qian failed to stop Liao Fan and Xu Feng from reaching Dachang City, while Zhang Han’s attempted revival through the Ghost Mirror ended in his permanent death. Liao Fan and Xu Feng arrived at Shangtong Building and forced their way inside to find Yang Jian, believing he was incapacitated.

• Liao Fan persuaded Xu Feng to abandon the fight with Tong Qian and continue toward Dachang City to target Yang Jian.
• Tong Qian, badly injured, realized the men were heading for Shangtong Building and contacted Li Yang, Huang Ziya, and Xiong Wenwen to prepare.
• Zhang Han revived inside the Ghost Mirror as an ordinary person, but unseen hands dragged him into the darkness and killed him again.
• Liao Fan and Xu Feng arrived at Shangtong Building, announced they had come for Yang Jian, and gave him three minutes to appear.
• Zhang Hua tried to stall the intruders by explaining that Yang Jian was absent, but Xu Feng and Liao Fan forced their way into the company.

At Guangjiang Residential Area, Li Yang, Huang Ziya, and Xiong Wenwen prepared to confront the attackers and avenge their fallen teammates.

• Xu Feng killed a security guard with supernatural power after the guard opened fire, and Liao Fan learned Yang Jian’s office was on the top floor.
• Xu Feng and Liao Fan found Yang Jian’s office empty, broke into the safe house, and discovered a corpse in a coffin and a cloth-covered mirror.
• Liao Fan took the mirror, and the two men left for Yang Jian’s home in Guangjiang Residential Area.
• Li Yang told Huang Ziya and the others that Xu Feng and Liao Fan had killed Feng Quan and Zhang Han, while Tong Qian was injured.
• Li Yang, Huang Ziya, and Xiong Wenwen agreed to confront the attackers outside Guangjiang Residential Area while the others stayed in the safe house.

Li Yang and Huang Ziya confronted Liao Fan and Xu Feng at the entrance to Guangjiang Residential Area, using their supernatural abilities and Xiong Wenwen’s foresight to counter the attackers. The battle escalated when Wang Shanshan sent the ghost child after Liao Fan.

• Liao Fan and Xu Feng drove the ghost taxi to Guangjiang Residential Area, where Liao Fan spotted Li Yang waiting in the darkened guard booth.
• Li Yang used Blocking Door to stop the ghost taxi, but the collision left him badly injured.
• When the Ghost Calling Person called Li Yang’s name, Huang Ziya blocked his view and stopped him from turning around.
• Xu Feng crossed the yellow line marking the reach of Li Yang’s power, and Li Yang used the ghost in his chest to pull Xu Feng toward him.
• Xu Feng attacked Li Yang and Huang Ziya with the Ghost Embracing Person, while Huang Ziya’s Ghost Hair resisted the assault.
• Wang Shanshan ordered the ghost child to eat Liao Fan, and it rushed at him and began biting him.

Li Yang and Huang Ziya nearly defeated Xu Feng and Liao Fan, but Gu Cheng arrived with a Ghost Domain and rescued them. Gu Cheng led them to Yang Jian’s opened safe house to claim the coffin nail, but the key items were missing, leaving them to open the iron coffin.

• Li Yang trapped Xu Feng inside his hollow body while the ghost child tore apart Liao Fan, and Xiong Wenwen warned that someone was coming.
• Gu Cheng arrived, used his Ghost Domain to rescue Xu Feng and Liao Fan, and transferred the ghost child away.
• Gu Cheng refused to help kill Li Yang’s team and took Xu Feng and Liao Fan to Safe House Number One, where they forced open the door.
• The three searched the safe house and found several supernatural items, but not the coffin nail or rust-covered cleaver.
• Gu Cheng and the others carried Yang Jian’s iron coffin outside and decided to open it, while Liao Fan went to bring the ghost taxi.

Xu Feng and Liao Fan opened Yang Jian’s coffin so Gu Cheng could take the coffin nail, but the balance sustaining Yang Jian’s corpse broke and the red light suppressed Gu Cheng’s powers. As Yang Jian stood up and asked, “Who am I?”, everyone realized he was still alive.

• Xu Feng opened Yang Jian’s coffin despite Li Yang’s attempt to stop him, while Gu Cheng incapacitated Li Yang with his supernatural power.
• Xu Feng confirmed that the motionless corpse was Yang Jian’s and Gu Cheng pulled the fused spear from his hand.
• Xiong Wenwen told Huang Ziya that his precognition showed Yang Jian was not dead.
• The bloodstained newspaper crumbled away, the red music box shattered, and Yang Jian’s corpse stood upright as darkness and red light spread.
• Gu Cheng’s Ghost Domain disappeared beneath the red light, and Yang Jian asked, “Who am I?”

Yang Jian awakened in his coffin with his memories lost, but Liao Fan’s Ghost Calling Person restored his identity. He killed Liao Fan and turned toward Gu Cheng and Xu Feng, who were left facing him in his Ghost Domain.

• Yang Jian repeatedly questioned who he was as Gu Cheng and Xu Feng realized he had awakened and debated attacking him.
• Xu Feng’s ghost restrained Yang Jian while Liao Fan’s Ghost Calling Person made him turn around, restoring his memories and confirming that he was Yang Jian.
• Gu Cheng’s ghost attack failed to harm Yang Jian, and Xu Feng’s ghost could not stop him from moving.
• Yang Jian took the coffin nail from Gu Cheng and used it to pin Liao Fan to the ground as Liao Fan tried to flee in the ghost taxi.
• Yang Jian pulled out the coffin nail, killed Liao Fan, and faced Gu Cheng and Xu Feng.

Yang Jian defeated the remaining invaders in Dachang City after reviving, killing Gu Cheng and Xu Feng while using the ghost child to consume the Ghost Calling Person. With Liao Fan and Pei Dong also dead, all four invaders had been eliminated.

• Yang Jian had the ghost child swallow the Ghost Calling Person left behind by Liao Fan.
• Gu Cheng drew the life slip and used his revived Ghost Domain to challenge Yang Jian, while Xu Feng tried to escape in the ghost taxi.
• Yang Jian invaded Gu Cheng's Ghost Domain, suppressed one of his ghosts, and killed him by snapping his neck.
• Xu Feng tried to start the taxi, but Yang Jian revealed that it was an illusion and that Xu Feng was sitting on a stone bench in the residential complex.
• Xu Feng turned toward the ghost child and triggered the Ghost Calling Person's killing rule, leaving him dead beside Liao Fan, Gu Cheng, and Pei Dong.

Yang Jian defeated the Ghost Tamers who attacked Dachang City, saved Li Yang, and arranged for Huang Ziya to control Xu Feng’s ghost. He then reached the highway, stopped Pei Dong’s revived ghost, and began investigating the remaining ghosts as Feng Quan lay unconscious in a grave.

• Yang Jian used the Ghost Shadow to stabilize Li Yang and healed him, then told Huang Ziya to control Xu Feng’s Ghost Embracing Person to balance her Ghost Hair.
• Yang Jian left Huang Ziya, Li Yang, and Wang Shanshan to handle the aftermath and contain the Ghost Child while he headed toward Tong Qian.
• On the highway, Tong Qian struggled to protect stranded drivers from the Ghost Fog and Pei Dong’s revived ghost, which she briefly suppressed with her crying and laughing faces.
• Yang Jian arrived, dispersed the Ghost Fog, and pinned Pei Dong’s revived corpse to the road with his spear before healing Tong Qian.
• Yang Jian identified multiple remaining threats, including Zhang Han’s revived ghost and an unknown ghost released by the Ghost Mirror, then found Feng Quan unconscious inside an old grave.

• Yang Jian buried the Ghost Skeleton with Feng Quan, hoping it would restore balance among the ghosts in his body.
• Yang Jian cleared the ghost fog and captured Zhang Han's ghost after it attacked Xu Fang; Tong Qian directed the stranded drivers to turn back.
• Feng Quan emerged from the collapsed grave alive, having tamed the Ghost Skeleton and survived with his Grave Soil and ghost fog powers.
• Yang Jian failed to find the last ghost released during Zhang Han's failed revival and wondered whether it had remained in the Ghost Mirror or left the area.
• Yang Jian reunited with Feng Quan and Tong Qian, thanked Feng Quan for surviving, and announced that they were going on a business trip to Dadong City.
