Mysterious Revival

Chapter 1223 - 1189: Curse and Corrosion

At this moment, Tong Qian almost uncontrollably wanted to burst into laughter.

But the laughter of the ghost face was deadly. Even if Yang Jian could withstand it, it would still affect everyone in the hospital. If not stopped in time, everyone could be killed by this laughter in an instant.

Fortunately, Tong Qian realized she was losing control and forcefully prevented this from happening.

She didn't laugh out loud and forcibly suppressed a murderous impulse.

Yang Jian slowly retracted his smile at this moment, his face calm as he said, "You don't want to turn your head, right? But the moment I smiled, it triggered the killing pattern of the ghost face. This potential instinct influenced you, causing you to uncontrollably turn toward me. At this moment, I think you even wanted to emit that ghost's laughter. If you can't control this degree, the ghost's instinct will continuously magnify in your heart until you are swallowed by it, becoming a new ghost."

"This is the resurrection of a ghost, even anomalies can't completely avoid it."

Tong Qian's face showed some suspicion because Yang Jian's words were correct. At that moment, she really lost control, no, it wasn't even losing control; it was instinctively turning her head.

Like her own instinct, not the killing pattern of a ghost.

"Captain, what should we do in this situation?" Li Yang asked.

Yang Jian said, "I've had this feeling before, my body being eroded by the supernatural causing decay, so when I see a fresh body, I have the impulse to replace it. But the ghost necklace can repair my body, keeping it healthy, so this instinct has never been triggered, allowing me to live normally until now. And if you want to avoid this situation, the best way is not to let laughter or crying appear around you."

"Even if you hear crying or laughter, you must control it, making that control an instinct, keeping the strings in your heart tight. Only in this way can you not lose control. If you fail to control it the first time and the ghost kills someone, there will be a second time, a third time... Eventually, your control will continue to weaken, like an addiction to smoking."

Tong Qian listened, was silent for a moment, then solemnly nodded, "I understand, I will control myself."

"That's really dangerous enough." Li Yang couldn't help but lament after listening.

Yang Jian said, "Confronting ghosts is a lifetime matter. Once you walk the path of a ghost tamer, there's no turning back, unless you're willing to die once and resurrect with the ghost mirror to be an ordinary person."

"Some things must always be done by someone, I won't evade."

Tong Qian said, "So I won't leave my image on the ghost mirror."

He had long been aware and thought that resurrecting with the ghost mirror to live as a normal person was a very disgraceful thing.

Because in this world, as long as there are ghosts, there must be ghost tamers, and someone must resist the ghosts. If he abandons the identity of a ghost tamer to choose a normal life, it means someone else has to take on his duties and choose to fight against ghosts.

Therefore, Tong Qian hopes that the person fighting against ghosts is himself. After all, he has experience and has persevered for so long, and the ones coming after him may not necessarily do better.

"Yes, some things must always be done by someone." Li Yang looked at his own emaciated arm and sighed.

"Observe your condition again, if there is no problem, we will return to Dachang City. The situation here has been temporarily dealt with. For quite a long time in the future, the Kaiser Hotel will not haunt again, but how long this period will last, I don't know. I can only tell you, on some future day, the terrifying Kaiser Hotel will appear again. It's an inevitable dangerous place like Fushou Garden in Dahai City that graves ghosts."

Yang Jian said.

"Doing this much is already pretty good; who can predict the future?" Tong Qian said.

"Then take a good rest, confirm there's no problem, and get discharged. Li Yang and I will roam around this city to see if there are any missed areas." Yang Jian said.

After speaking, he and Li Yang left the ward, giving Tong Qian some time to reconcile his state.

After the two left.

Tong Qian lay in bed for a long time, suddenly turned slightly, and glanced behind him.

A cold, eerie dead man stood stiffly behind him, as if following him, watching him.

"Is the ghost still here?"

Tong Qian quickly turned his head back, but the ghost's figure behind him quickly disappeared from sight.

This is a ghost that can be seen as soon as you turn your head.

But Tong Qian always turns back with the ghost face, and the ghost face doesn't trigger the ghost's killing pattern, so he can safely observe the situation behind him every time.

"Being followed by such a ghost is not a good thing." Tong Qian's eyes slightly moved.

However, now he doesn't have much energy to think about this matter. He must quickly adapt to his current state.

Always facing everything with the ghost face profile.

His face now is likely just a decoration, for him to occasionally look at, to remember his former appearance.

Yang Jian and Li Yang fulfilled their responsibilities, patrolling the city once. Only after confirming there were no residual supernatural incidents did they feel relieved. After all, he didn't want to leave with things unfinished, and upon leaving, have ghost killings occur in the city, having to come back again.

Even though he only bears responsibility for Dachang City.

But this city is Tong Qian's hometown, and he hasn't abandoned it, so there's no new person in charge here. Therefore, Yang Jian's team has to look after it as well.

But that's also a good thing.

At least the Caesar Hotel can be controlled by Yang Jian himself, so it doesn't get messed up by some ghost handlers who don't know the height of the sky, leading to an unmanageable situation in the end.

"Tong Qian is almost recovered, we can return to Dachang City." Afterwards, Li Yang received the message from Tong Qian.

Yang Jian, at this moment, was speaking with the city's liaison: "The blockade of the Caesar Hotel must continue, and it must be long-term. That area should not be ventured into, as it concerns the safety of this city. As for other matters, I have already settled them, and supernatural events will not happen again. You can temporarily put your mind at ease. Today, I will return to Dachang City, so from now on it will be your responsibility."

"Yang, team leader, rest assured, we will do our job well." The liaison had no objections.

"Very good."

Yang Jian believed that those who served as liaisons should have the necessary awareness, so he didn't say much more. He and Li Yang then immediately disappeared from the original spot and returned to the hospital to take Tong Qian directly to Dachang City.

Dachang City was not far from here.

Under Ghost Domain's speed, they arrived at the familiar Guanjiang Residential Complex within a minute.

"The business trip is over, you all go back and rest first, I'll handle the remaining matters." Yang Jian said.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll go back and rest first."

Li Yang handed over the bag containing the burning bones.

Yang Jian took it and then looked at Tong Qian: "You still have a ghost following you, until this problem is resolved you must be cautious in your outings, make sure you do not lose control. Also, frequently check your back to ensure the ghost remains close and hasn't vanished when you turn around. This is Dachang City, there cannot be disorder, I hope you understand."

"I know, I will take responsibility for myself." Tong Qian nodded.

There are uncontrollable factors on him, so he naturally must be more vigilant.

"That's good." Yang Jian nodded.

He and Tong Qian are ghost handlers from the same era, they've known each other for a long time, they are not novices. What needs doing, they certainly can do well, he felt assured.

After Yang Jian and Li Yang parted ways from Tong Qian, he arrived at the safe house, stored the burning bones, and tidied up his belongings.

Looking at his charred Ghost Hand, he thought for a moment and put on the gold glove he hadn't used for a while.

The eerie flames continued to burn within the Ghost Hand, and the scorched stench lingered. To prevent supernatural influences on the surroundings, he had no choice but to wear the glove again.

"Some supernatural situations this time have worsened my state of being corroded by the Ghost Lake."

Yang Jian's eyes shifted slightly, he knew he'd soon have to find a way to face the new resurrection of supernatural events.

What is troublesome is not the supernatural furnace fire of the burning bones, but the constantly eroding Ghost Lake Water.

He glanced down slightly.

The place where he stood left a damp footprint.

The moisture on him was heavy.

If it weren't for the flames still burning on the Ghost Hand, he probably would've been dripping water by now.

However, Yang Jian was not particularly worried, because although the situation was serious this time, it wasn't as perilous as previous ones. He was confident he could resolve it, as he still had extreme measures in the Ghost Cabinet and the human skin paper.

He casually gripped the Ghost Scissors.

The curse on him presented itself.

Yang Jian glanced at a corner, where the red wooden cabinet stood eerily, but in front of the cabinet, a terrifying yet blurred ghostly figure blocked the way.

That was also a terrifying ghost, capable of fulfilling a living person's wish, but at the cost that a relative would die.

"Still in a standoff, huh?" Yang Jian put down the Ghost Scissors, thought to himself.

This Ghost Cabinet curse was indeed vexing; whether he terminated the transaction or chopped the Ghost Cabinet with a Firewood Knife, this thing stuck with him.

In the end, he temporarily dealt with the curse by using a Wish Sticker to make conflicting wishes with the Ghost Cabinet.

Though he wasn't sure how long it would last.

He only knew the Ghost Cabinet's curse hadn't appeared yet.

To the accustomed Yang Jian, he wasn't troubled by this matter. He stepped out of the safe house, paused a bit in the complex, and suddenly looked in one direction of the complex.

That was Wang Shanshan's residence

There was also a golden door there
