Out of the Village

With the village ghost entering the coffin, the supernatural events here can be declared temporarily over.

With the influence of the vengeful ghost gone, the dim sky outside gradually brightened.

The night is fading away.

But at the same time, the entire Huanggang Village also vanished.

Yes.

Huanggang Village is disappearing.

Like a mirage, as sunlight streamed into the village, all the buildings, houses, and roads were gradually erased, as if they were a drawing on paper.

All traces left by the vengeful ghost disappeared after it entered the coffin.

Yang Jian, who was loading things into the car, changed his expression slightly upon seeing this scene.

"The village is going to disappear!" Zhang Han, who was injured nearby, exclaimed in shock.

"It's only disappeared temporarily. Once that ghost comes out of the coffin again, Huanggang Village will reappear," Yang Jian said. "But what the ghost in the coffin will look like this time is anyone's guess."

"Perhaps the level of terror is enough to classify it as S-class."

In the records, the Huanggang Village paranormal incident was only classified as level B, danger level.

Because the ghost in the village wasn't the kind that roamed around.

The danger level has been greatly reduced.

However, the level of terror is very high.

Those Ghost Tamer will surely die if they encounter situations where they do not understand the rules of the demons; only by facing them head-on from the beginning can they have a chance to imprison them.

And once the first Ghost Tamer begins to die...

The ghost's power will then increase again, snowballing out of control, making it very difficult to deal with at that point.

Yang Jian and several other members of the Xiaoqiang Club experienced this despairing situation firsthand.

Zhang Han said, "It's best if this ghost village never appears again. It's an unsolvable ghost, and if it comes out again, the consequences won't be just this small."

"That's a matter for the future. There are ghosts even more terrifying than this, so why should we worry about it? Let's just take it one step at a time." Yang Jian threw the body bag containing Feng Quan's corpse into the carriage.

"What do you plan to do with the ghost coffin? Are you just going to leave it here and ignore it?" Zhang Han asked.

Yang Jian, "Of course we'll take it. This thing has great research value. This mission is to obtain this ghost coffin. I believe that company will be happy to buy it at a high price. Besides, I've noticed that you haven't looked well. You're pale and look more and more like a dead person."

"Are you sure you don't need me to make some arrangements for you?"

No, that's alright.

Zhang Han broke out in a cold sweat, fully aware of Yang Jian's intentions.

This kid is planning to sell himself like merchandise.

Just like Feng Quan, who was packaged up.

"That's a real pity. Once you're resurrected as a vengeful ghost, you'll be worthless. Locking you up now at least poses no danger," Yang Jian.

Zhang Han's lips twitched.

How could you even think of that?

Why don't you sell yourself instead of trying to sell others? Don't you even consider whether other Ghost Tamer would be willing? If it were anyone else, they would risk the resurrection of a vengeful ghost to prevent you from succeeding.

"Since that's the case, if you're unwilling, then forget it. But I saved your life, so how about you do me a favor and help me carry this coffin to the car?" Yang Jian.

"That's He Sheng's sports car. How do you plan to put such a big coffin inside?" Zhang Han asked.

Yang Jian, "Of course I have my own way. You just need to help carry it."

"Oh well."

Zhang Han had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.

In no time at all.

Two sports cars drove out of the village.

One of the vehicles had its cargo compartment dismantled, leaving the valuable vehicle in a haphazard and unrecognizable state. This violent dismantling was solely for the purpose of transporting a vermilion-lacquered coffin.

The coffin was placed horizontally on the back seat, and was secured with ropes at both ends to prevent the lid from being accidentally overturned during transport.

I walked a tightrope between life and death.

Yang Jian did gain a lot, but he also sowed the seeds of many huge hidden dangers.

I can't tell whether I should be happy or worried.

But one thing is certain: the current crisis has been temporarily averted.

The time for the vengeful ghost's resurgence has been greatly delayed, and Yang Jian is no longer a short-lived ghost with only a few months to live.

However, just as Yang Jian and Zhang Han were driving out of the village...

On the main road leading to Huanggang Village.

The area has been placed under martial law, and half of the road has been blocked. A dozen or so vehicles are parked at the intersection.

Professionals set up communications, while others took turns standing guard to closely monitor every move in Huanggang Village in the distance. Judging from their attire, there were company personnel, law enforcement officers, and even some wearing white coats who looked like researchers. Moreover, a helicopter was parked in the nearby open space.

Observers took turns keeping an eye on Huanggang Village with binoculars.

When the observer saw Huanggang Village mysteriously disappearing from sight, he was immediately stunned.

"Something's wrong. Huanggang Village is disappearing. The village—no, it's gone! Two cars are coming from the direction of the village."

"The license plate has been confirmed; it belongs to He Sheng and Zhang Han, both members of the Xiaoqiang Club in Dachang City."

"The car behind is carrying a coffin."

"Go report immediately."

The observers then reported what had just happened.

Meanwhile, in the makeshift tents nearby.

Some key figures involved in the incident gathered for a meeting, as usual.

The meeting was ostensibly a discussion, but in reality, it was a deliberation on how to deal with the Ghost Tamer who came out of Huanggang Village, especially Yang Jian.

The person in charge of this matter is named Wu Yue.

He was a middle-aged man in his early thirties, slightly overweight, who was the general manager of the company and responsible for managing the entire company.

Because of the company's special circumstances.

Despite being just a general manager, he wields considerable power, not only within the company but also throughout the entire Dachang City.

"Actually, there's nothing to discuss about this."

Wu Yue tapped the table and gave the company's key executives a rather authoritative look.

"The supernatural events in Huanggang Village are very unusual. I don't think Yang Jian will come out alive unscathed. We don't need to take the pressure from Zhao Jianguo at Headquarters too seriously. This trip here is just to give Zhao face. It's basically just a formality. If someone can really solve this incident..."

"As long as we fulfill our previous promises and complete the transaction, that's fine. After all, what they want has always been in the company's hands."

The others at the table all looked somewhat tense.

They haven't had a good few days.

Especially after the pressure from the Ghost Tamer Headquarters.

"Boss, but Yang Jian is too unpredictable. What if he comes out of Huanggang Village and causes trouble because of the files? How should we handle that?"

Sun Lihong, who had previously been in charge of contacting Yang Jian, spoke up.

Wu Yue said, "That's a problem for Headquarters to consider, not us. If our own Ghost Tamer have problems, they should take full responsibility. We can't be the ones cleaning up their messes."

"Moreover, the problem with the files lies with Headquarters, not with our company. There was no concealment in our transactions with them; at most, it was just a lack of transparency. They voluntarily accepted this mission, and they were already aware of its high level of danger before accepting it."

"A lack of transparency is normal business practice; it's a matter of mutual consent, and no one else is to blame."

He was very firm in his stance and did not think there was anything wrong with what he was doing.

The files on the Ghost Coffin are highly confidential, and it would have been impossible to entrust the retrieval work to those civilian Ghost Tamer of the Xiaoqiang Club.

The company made concessions in assessing the risks and losses, which is why it issued the task in the form of a transaction.

Of course, information withholding is also essential, although this will greatly reduce the survival rate.

But that doesn't matter.

If successful, the company will have naturally achieved its goal.

Even if we fail, we won't lose anything.

Those Ghost Tamer; they were utterly insignificant.

After all, the folk Ghost Tamer are like ticking time bombs, ready to explode anywhere. It's better to let them try their luck in Huanggang Village.

Wu Yue felt that his decision was absolutely correct.

"Boss, I have a suggestion. The mental state of the Ghost Tamer is very problematic. We can't analyze them with normal human thinking. They're like thugs; they might suddenly attack and hurt someone over a dispute over a single dollar. We need to be extra careful in dealing with them."

Some people expressed their concerns.

Wu Yue said, "I got several lists from the Xiaoqiang Club. All five members of the Xiaoqiang Club are here. He Sheng, Ouyang Tian, Zhang Han, Zhang Yiming, and Ye Jun. I've seen their mental health assessments, and they're all relatively normal. As for Yang Jian, I don't know for now. His file is with Zhao Jianguo, but it's still the same as before."

"His chances of surviving are slim, after all, he's too young and lacks experience."

However, at this very moment...

An observer suddenly burst in.

"Boss, something's happened. Two cars left Huanggang Village and are heading this way. Facial recognition has confirmed that the person in the first car is Zhang Han, a member of the Xiaoqiang Club and Ghost Tamer, and the other person is Yang Jian."

Is Yang Jian still alive?

At that moment, everyone inside the tent had a slight change in expression.

Of all the people who could have survived, it had to be him.

This is the madman who threatened to wipe out Headquarters with a single phone call.

Wu Yue's lips twitched.

He had just been analyzing and speculating that Yang Jian might have died during the mission, but unexpectedly, he received news that Yang Jian had returned alive.

That's a slap in the face!

And in front of such a large group of people.

"Let's go out and take a look," Wu Yue said, forcing himself to speak.
