"To perfectly control the ghostly shadow, I need to utilize the ghost rope and the ghost mirror's abilities."

"After all that nonsense, you've successfully piqued my curiosity. So, what's the method?" Yang Jian narrowed his eyes.

The writing on the parchment completely disappeared, leaving only a line of large black characters. "Integrate the ghost into your body and then hang yourself with the ghost rope in front of the ghost mirror."

Upon seeing the method that appeared on the human skin paper, Yang Jian was so shocked that he couldn't help but take several steps back.

A nameless fear welled up inside me, sending chills down my spine.

To merge a ghost into one's body, and then hang oneself with a ghost rope in front of a ghost mirror?

This short sentence reveals three inevitable deaths.

First, once the ghostly figure completely merges into the body, death is inevitable.

If the ghost goes out of control, your body will immediately fall apart. You might even rip your own head off while you're sleeping. That's why the ghost has always been kept outside your body.

Hanging oneself with a ghost rope is the second inevitable death.

The ghost rope has been revived. Once entangled, anyone is doomed. Even Ghost Tamer will find it difficult to escape. Not every Ghost Tamer has the shroud that Ye Feng wore, which can protect them from attacks by other vengeful ghosts.

Stand in front of the ghost mirror.

That's even more impossible.

He had clearly seen his cousin Shangguan Yun's situation before. Once the ghost mirror shines on you, it will leave your shadow. That shadow is not you, but a ghost transformed from inside the mirror. This can be seen from Zhang Wei's experience.

Once you stand in front of the ghost mirror for an extended period of time.

Yang Jian will be locked inside the mirror, and a ghost will appear to replace him.

This is the third inevitable end.

And this human skin paper actually made him do it all in one go.

This is practically a fancy form of suicide.

If there were an award for the best suicide attempt in this world, Yang Jian felt that with this move, no one could beat him, and the trophy would definitely be placed in front of his grave.

However, writing continued to appear on the parchment.

"To perfectly control a ghost, you must revive it. Suicide with a ghost rope can perfectly stimulate the complete revival of the ghost's shadow. Even if you have Ghost Eye in your body, you cannot suppress it. Once the ghost's shadow is successfully revived, it will completely take over my body. This is a certain death, but it is also the prerequisite for perfectly controlling a ghost."

"The ghost in the Ghost Mirror can swap me into the mirror, but the Ghost Mirror's power is useless against other ghosts. After I die, the ghost will be fully revived. My suicide in front of the Ghost Mirror will create a special situation where the ghost controlling my body and the Ghost Mirror will fight for my body."

So who will win?

"No one will win; the final winner will only be me. When my head emerged from the ghost mirror again, I was resurrected. At the same time, the struggle between the ghost mirror and the ghost disappeared, and I perfectly controlled the ghost within my body."

When Yang Jian saw this terrifying and insane method, he found it both unbelievable and somehow surprisingly reasonable.

This is like using the characteristics between ghosts to artificially create a logical dead loop.

The final result was that both ghosts crashed, and Yang Jian, as the third party, became the ultimate winner.

"You're a fucking genius, you actually came up with this method."

Yang Jian stared at the human skin paper, feeling both fear and a restless urge to act.

If he succeeds, his body will have been completely transformed into a ghost.

How could that not be impressive enough?

However, a sentence on the paper made his face darken. "Of course, this method may fail. If I fail, I'll hang myself from the ceiling, successfully completing a perfect suicide, and no one will dare to collect my body."

It's not 100% successful.

If the two ghosts don't both crash during their battle, but instead one ghost is stronger and defeats the other.

Then Yang Jian will die a very, very terrible death.

It was like a high-stakes gamble with one's life.

This isn't a game where you can start over if you fail. If you don't play it well, a bunch of vengeful ghosts will be resurrected.

"This method is too terrifying. It's not worth taking this risk just to deal with Ye Feng. I'd rather waste time with Ye Feng. Hanging myself has a chance of failure, so it's not worth it."

The impulse to finally overcome caution.

Yang Jian put the human skin paper away, sealed it back in the golden box, and then put it away.

He left the fifth floor with a thoughtful expression.

Before leaving, I glanced at the room with the ghost mirror.

Although no decision was made immediately, the insane method revealed by the human skin paper tonight had been deeply imprinted in Yang Jian's mind.

He won't make that decision now, but if he ever reaches a desperate situation, Yang Jian will definitely use this method to fight to the death.

However, the timing is not right yet.

"I can't take the risk of using the human skin paper method. I've risked my life too many times; I can't be lucky enough to survive every time. It seems I need to find a way to increase my own abilities."

With this thought in mind, Yang Jian went back to his room to sleep.

However, despite resting, he didn't fall asleep.

His physical condition didn't allow him to fall into a deep sleep, and he didn't need to sleep now either; the body's normal functioning had long been disrupted.

The next day, however, Yang Jian received a call from a satellite-guided mobile phone.

It was Zhao Jianguo calling.

The appointment of the Dachang City Manager has been made.

The person in charge of this matter was a man Sun Yi, who instructed Yang Jian to meet at a designated location. At the same time, Zhao Jianguo also revealed to him that once the appointment was completed, all forces in Dachang City would support Yang Jian in completing the arrest warrants for Wang Xiaoqiang and Ye Feng.

"He's arrived just in time. It seems Zhao Jianguo has also made his choice," Yang Jian thought to himself as he put down the phone.

If Zhao Jianguo chooses to stall for time, then it is undoubtedly a sign that he intends to protect Wang Xiaoqiang.

But he didn't.

From a purely professional standpoint, Yang Jian's contributions were significantly greater than Wang Xiaoqiang's.

Wang Xiaoqiang only causes trouble, while Yang Jian can solve paranormal events in Dachang City.

If Yang Jian could make such a simple mistake, he would never have chosen to become a person in charge.

I'm going out for a bit.

After hanging up the phone, he grabbed his car keys and immediately prepared to leave.

Where are you going? Take me with you, I'm scared here alone.

Jiang Yan, dressed in a smart business suit, looked quite capable. She rushed out, grabbed Yang Jian's hand, and said in a coquettish tone.

"I'm going to handle a paranormal event, are you coming?" Yang Jian.

"I'm going to work. Come back soon, Mengmengda, love you." Jiang Yan immediately let go of Yang Jian's hand and waved goodbye.
