The Opened Coffin
"Having mastered the second ghost, the time for the vengeful spirit to resurrect has been greatly extended. Even if I don't go through with this transaction, I've already achieved my goal, right? If that's the case, then there's no need for the transaction at all."
Yang Jian frowned and began to think about what to do next.
But he quickly dismissed the idea.
"No, the threat of the resurgence of vengeful spirits still exists. This balance is not firm; it only makes things easier for now, giving me time to breathe. But this balance will eventually be broken as I continue to use the power of vengeful spirits. At that time, I may be forced to control a third spirit. The deal must be made."
And
Yang Jian looked at the human skin paper on the ground.
If that company knows how to control vengeful spirits, then this paper-thin human skin also knows.
He would choose that company over the other.
This thing is too eerie; it can even swallow ghosts. Who knows what it will do next?
Do you need to find a place to lose it?
An idea popped into Yang Jian's mind.
Although reason told him he should abandon the paper human skin here, the will to survive prevented him.
The matter is not over yet.
Moreover, this human skin paper might still play a crucial role the next time we're in dire straits.
Even if it's bizarre, it's better than dying.
With this in mind, he still decided to keep the human skin paper.
However, the next transaction will definitely be more cautious.
They put the human skin paper away.
Yang Jian no longer dared to carry it on his person.
Instead, they found the box that had previously imprisoned the headless ghost and stuffed it inside.
Although the box is a bit damaged, I'll definitely have to rebuild it when I get back.
Now is not the time to relax.
Yang Jian also has to deal with the Huanggang Village incident at this moment.
He felt he wouldn't be able to leave until this matter was resolved.
The Ghost Domain opened once more.
This time, the Ghost Domain has expanded again, covering a radius of fifty meters, which is on a completely different level from before.
It seems that the power of a ghost that a human can unleash by controlling it is truly limited.
If it's a ghost controlling another ghost, then it's a completely different story.
The next moment.
Yang Jian appeared in front of a sports car and pulled a suitcase out of the car.
Zhang Han, trapped inside the suitcase, was terrified, his face pale and his body filled with fear. He felt he was doomed. Had the ghost of Huanggang Village finally found him after hiding for so long?
"I'm being dragged out by that ghost."
"Oh no, it's going to open the suitcase. That ghost really has pinpointed my location. I can't hide any longer."
"I'll fight you to the death!"
The moment the suitcase was opened, Zhang Han roared and charged out with a ferocious expression.
But when he saw Yang Jian standing outside, his expression instantly changed from ferocious to shocked, then to doubtful, and finally to a hint of joy.
These rich changes in expression all happened within two seconds; it was simply amazing.
Even the most dramatic person can't compare to him.
"Continue your performance. We can talk after you're done," Yang Jian gestured.
"You... you're not dead?" Zhang Han exclaimed in surprise.
Yang Jian, "Like you, I was lucky enough to survive. Your action was correct. Hiding in this golden suitcase avoided the most terrifying and certain death situation in this village. Now the situation has changed, and the crisis has been temporarily resolved."
He released Zhang Han because he needed a companion.
Otherwise, the condition that guarantees death if you're alone will be triggered.
"Is this... is this real? Is everything alright for now?" Zhang Han looked around with some doubt.
Still in the village.
But dawn had broken, and the dark time had passed.
However, when he saw the house where the mourning hall had been set up reappear, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"No, we're just okay for now. The others are a different story. Zhang Yiming, for example... he probably didn't make it." Yang Jian, "I don't know if he's dead or not, but now, you have to come with me."
"Where to now?" Zhang Han asked.
"That mourning hall."
Yang Jian pointed to the house not far away and said, "The root of everything is that coffin. To resolve this, we must go there. We went around in circles before, and you led us astray, causing us to make a mistake that resulted in the deaths of two Ghost Tamer for no reason. We can't hesitate any longer now."
"I'm not sure how long this current balance can last."
"Once it gets dark again, we're all doomed. So don't waste any more time, cooperate with me immediately."
"Okay, okay."
Zhang Han nodded almost subconsciously.
Because Yang Jian was able to turn the tide and save his life in such a desperate situation, he dared not question his actions any longer.
This young man is much better than the rest of the club.
If they had believed him sooner, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out so badly, and maybe more Ghost Tamer would have survived.
Let's go.
Yang Jian waved his hand, and the two of them appeared at the entrance of the mourning hall.
This sudden change in location, while strange to Zhang Han, did not surprise him.
Because he had seen Yang Jian use this ability before.
"You don't need to ask about anything else. Now just listen to me about the situation in the village. Based on my previous assessment, there should be two ghosts in this village. One wanders around the village, killing other lone Ghost Tamer without restraint, while the other ghost is in this coffin."
Yang Jian glanced at Zhang Han, then pointed to the coffin.
"Now you must come with me to open this coffin and release the ghost inside."
"If anything unexpected happens, there's no other way but to fight to the death. At that time, the suitcase in your hand and the body bag in mine will become the containers to imprison these two ghosts."
"I see."
Zhang Han felt like crying but had no tears left to shed.
Just when I thought things were looking up and I was going to survive, I never expected to have to do this horrific thing again.
I really hope that God will bless me so that I can leave Huanggang Village alive.
"Let's begin opening the coffin."
Yang Jian found the crowbar that had been left in the mourning hall and tossed it to Zhang Han.
However, just as the two of them were about to make their move...
"Cough, cough cough."
A weak, feeble cough, as if the patient were terminally ill, suddenly rang out again.
But this time the sound didn't come from beside me.
Instead, it was inside the vermilion-lacquered coffin in front of them.
As the cough subsided...
The next moment.
The coffin, which Yang Jian had previously tried to pry open but failed, slowly opened with a series of sounds.
A bloodless, deathly pale hand emerged from the coffin.
"Yang Jian ~!"
Zhang Han shouted, his face covered in cold sweat.
I still owe the Alliance Leader two more chapters.
I'm ashamed, I'll make it up tomorrow.
I'll keep updating three times a day.
