Mysterious Revival

Li Yang indeed looked a bit miserable, he was almost dragged into the ground by a fierce ghost to become a silhouette. If he hadn’t actively abandoned his hands and feet and been brought into the Ghost Domain by Yang Jian at that time, he would probably be gone by now.

But surviving is a blessing.

Physical defects can be restored.

Yang Jian took the crystal necklace from Huang Ziya’s hands and then handed it to Li Yang.

Li Yang held the necklace, closed his eyes, and began to use the ability of the fierce ghost sealed within the necklace.

A chilling aura began to disperse within the villa, and the lights flickered around.

Soon.

The hands and feet of Li Yang that had disappeared gradually reappeared, turning from blurry to clear, and finally becoming indistinguishable from a real person.

This is the supernatural power of the ghost with the code name Deceiving Ghost.

It can directly influence real-world objects, including living human bodies, but it is limited to ordinary things. If there is a supernatural involvement, it cannot be influenced, so this thing currently can only be used as a tool for restoring the body.

“All done, Captain.” Li Yang stood up again, moved his hands and feet, nothing abnormal, seemed even healthier than before.

Yang Jian nodded, he took back the necklace, and he also repaired his body a bit.

Although he seemed normal, he was actually scarred all over due to the marks left by using the Firewood Knife.

Ghost Shadow can only patch wounds, but cannot completely repair them, the scars would remain, plus Yang Jian’s current body had already died, with no life signs, emitting a faint smell of corpse, continuing like this would be detrimental to Ghost Shadow occupying him.

Therefore, whether it’s daily activities or for considering his own supernatural balance, a healthy, normal body is very necessary.

After all, no one wants to have a rotten, smelly body.

“I’ll take the necklace back temporarily, you seldom have a chance to use it in Dachang City, and you don’t need it to maintain balance now as you’re managing two ghosts simultaneously. Li Yang and I have things to deal with next, perhaps we might use this.”

After restoring his body, Yang Jian did not return the necklace to Huang Ziya, intending to take it temporarily.

After all, at that time it was only temporarily lent to Huang Ziya, there was never a clear intention of giving it to her.

“If you need it, Captain, just take it. I’m quite satisfied with myself in all aspects now, indeed I’ve not used this necklace for a long time.” Huang Ziya said.

Yang Jian asked again: “Days ago when I boarded the bus, there was a fierce ghost with a black umbrella getting off the bus, how did you handle it?”

He emphasized this question again.

Huang Ziya replied promptly: “After that ghost got off the bus, the whole city started acting strangely, gloomy as if it’s going to rain lightly, and the area affected by the ghost was large, comparable to the area sealed by Hungry Ghost before, the only fortunate thing is, that overcast weather wasn’t a Ghost Domain, ordinary people could still freely enter and exit the city.”

“Feng Quan thought it was a massive crisis, so he and Tong Qian decided to lure the ghost away.”

“Fortunately, there were still quite a few white Ghost Candles left, Feng Quan actively lit the white Ghost Candle to lure the fierce ghost away, out to an uninhabited suburb outside Dachang City, then through our observation afterwards, that area had continuous rain, up till now hasn’t stopped.”

Li Yang said: “Does that mean the ghost is still there?”

“What about Feng Quan? How is he? Using white Ghost Candle to lure fierce ghosts is a very dangerous thing, not everyone can easily try it.” Yang Jian said.

The white Ghost Candle is the negative counterpart of the red Ghost Candle, every use has a high risk, easily causing a terrifying chain reaction.

“Feng Quan is fine, after staying in that eerie rainy place for several days, he finally got out, seemingly encountering dangerous troubles, but he didn’t say much, only mentioned this matter should be discussed when you return. However, Feng Quan’s own opinion is to leave it alone for now.” Huang Ziya said.

“He said the ghost was too terrifying, extremely dangerous, for now if forcing a resolution the squad would surely face casualties.”

“By the way, Feng Quan also established a file at the headquarters, code name Black Umbrella, supernatural danger level directly evaluated as A, if not for the ghost’s absence in the city, the danger level evaluation might have reached S level directly.”

Huang Ziya didn’t know much information, only a general situation.

After all, she didn’t participate in that operation, it was Feng Quan who took the lead in making the decision.

“Another supernatural event with S-level potential? But before boarding, I also saw that fierce ghost, really dangerous, I intended to handle it first, but things were urgent, Li Yang and I were getting on the bus, no time, luckily didn’t lead to greater harm.”

Yang Jian fell into deep thought, he felt that the supernatural event code-named Black Umbrella must be dealt with sooner.

This is a fierce ghost descended from a bus, meaning it’s a surviving ghost from a supernatural location, appearing in the real world through the supernatural bus.

But the matter of the fifth floor post office is also urgent.

“Fortunately there’s no supernatural event in Dachang City now, otherwise Feng Quan wouldn’t have easily lit Ghost Candle to lure that fierce ghost.” Li Yang said.

“Discuss this at the company tomorrow, it’s very late now, most people aren’t around, and nothing can be planned out, so let’s leave this matter for now, given the post office matter just ended, take a day’s break before continuing.”

Yang Jian wasn’t in a hurry to investigate this matter.

Anyway, so many days had passed, a day or two wouldn’t matter.

“Alright, then Captain, I’m heading back for a rest first, see you at the company tomorrow.” Li Yang said.

“Alright, rest early.”

Yang Jian said: “I won’t disturb you, continue grooming, help notify the others later, have them come to the company for a meeting tomorrow.”

“Okay, Captain.”

After Huang Ziya finished speaking, she blinked: “Do you want to sleep here tonight? Let me give Captain a taste of the world’s top beauty’s charm, rare chance.”

“Not interested, ask someone else, maybe others are.” Yang Jian said then left immediately.

Li Yang also quickly slipped away seeing this.

“Am I that scary?” Huang Ziya touched her flawless face, and looked in the mirror.

So stunningly beautiful, looking not like a normal human, but a carefully edited picture.

It’s just that within that perfection, there’s always a trace of unsettling eeriness.

After all, a person parasitized by two fierce ghosts, no matter how beautiful, how perfectly maintained the body, who dares to touch.

Just like Leuk Qingqing, equally enchanting, only can be observed from distance, truly getting close to take a careful look would reveal that it’s not a normal person’s body.

After leaving here Yang Jian didn’t return to his residence, but went to Safe House No. 1 first.

This safe house was modified by him into a place for storing supernatural items.

Imprisoned fierce ghosts were also placed here.

Yang Jian put down the old puppet doll he carried.

The puppet doll helped him block an attack from a fierce ghost last time, was highly effective, but also very dangerous, once eyes meet any individual would be attacked by it, so unsuitable to carry around long-term.

He entered the room and placed the puppet doll properly, then found an empty gold box.

Yang Jian placed a bizarre dead hand inside.

This hand came from the scary ghost behind the black Taishi chair in the ancient house, he dismembered it with Firewood Knife, this hand remained peaceful after being dismembered, not resurrecting or acting unusually.

Perhaps it’s due to insufficient time, maybe a single hand couldn’t trigger its killing pattern, thus this hand fell into slumber.

According to his previous thoughts.

This hand is unsuitable for Ghost Shadow’s patchwork on the body, suitable for transforming into a supernatural object, but to do so comprehension of this hand’s killing pattern is necessary.

Recalling that ghost’s killing method behind the black Taishi chair, Yang Jian had some clues in his mind.

But confirmation requires experiments.

“Why not today, after all, nothing else on hand, I have some things needing verification.”

Yang Jian raised his hand to look at the crystal necklace.

The necklace isn’t key.

Key is the water drop-shaped crystal pendant on the necklace.

This pendant is quite cheap, not something precious, but inside there’s a mass of pitch-black matter squirming, sometimes resembling a bizarre human face, sometimes a twisted little figure.

The malevolent spirit codenamed Deceiving Ghost is attempting to resurrect.

But it’s useless.

Once there are signs of resurrection, Yang Jian will immediately confine it using the five layers of the Ghost Domain, preventing the malevolent spirit from escaping.

At this moment.

Yang Jian holds the crystal in his hand and begins to use the supernatural power of the Deceiving Ghost again.

This time he doesn’t use this supernatural power to affect himself, but rather creates a living human body out of thin air.

A body gradually takes shape in front of Yang Jian, initially just an outline, then a blurred figure, and finally this blurred figure gradually becomes clear, and a man’s body thus abruptly appears.

But it’s merely a body; although it is fresh and alive, it cannot wake up, like the dead.

This crystal necklace can only create a living human body, unable to create a living person’s consciousness.

Yang Jian can understand it as being a vegetative person without any memory.

“Body plus memory equals a person. With the conditions and factors for resurrection mastered, I can reverse life and death to resurrect the dead.”

Yang Jian decides to attempt this forbidden kind of supernatural experiment.

Once the idea in his mind becomes reality, the events in the future are bound to become very interesting.

Yang Jian holds the crystal necklace, continuing to affect the body of the man in front of him.

The man’s facial features changed, transforming into a familiar person.

This person was the Eagle who was previously cursed to death by the Eight-Tone Music Box.

“My Ghost Shadow stole his memory while in the ancient mansion, not just Eagle’s, but I have stolen the memories of other messengers as well.”

Yang Jian’s gaze shifted slightly; as long as they’ve stepped onto the Ghost Shadow, their memories will be stolen by him.

Of course, this only applies to messengers whose powers are not strong.

Yang Jian couldn’t steal Leuk Qingqing’s memories.

Because that red cheongsam and the eerie Puppet People all resisted the invasion of the Ghost Shadow.

The next moment.

A tall dark shadow behind Yang Jian invaded the memory-less living body in front of him, rewriting the memory, embedding Eagle’s memory into it.

Just like copying and pasting on a computer.

This process is very fast.

Transferring an ordinary person’s memory is not difficult for Yang Jian, even somewhat easy.

“Will it work?”

Yang Jian waited for the result after doing all this; he looked at the body created by the supernatural power in front of him, expecting it to awaken.

The conditions of memory plus body have been achieved.

If it doesn’t work, it indicates that resurrecting a person is not as simple as imagined.

Ten seconds passed, thirty seconds… a minute…..

The “Eagle” in front of him still hasn’t awakened; he remains standing there motionless.

“Did it fail?” Yang Jian frowned, a thought surfaced in his mind.

But just as this thought appeared.

Eagle’s body moved, and upon moving, he immediately lost his balance and toppled sideways.

Suddenly.

Eagle seemed to awaken from a nightmare, his eyes shot open, he became conscious, subconsciously grabbing something beside him, trying to stabilize himself.

“It worked.” Seeing this, Yang Jian’s eyes lit up, a rare touch of joy arose in his heart.

As long as Eagle is successfully resurrected, it means others can also be resurrected.

Although resurrecting a person through such special means is somewhat controversial, it’s not the same for the person themselves.

Because Eagle wouldn’t think of himself as dead or as someone else.

The memory that belongs to him is singular.

So his identity can be acknowledged.

“Yang, Captain Yang? This, this place, what is it? Isn’t this the ancient mansion, what happened to me?”

Eagle was initially confused, then regained his clarity, he immediately returned to form, examining his surroundings.

He discovered that this was a rather enclosed basement, with modern styled decoration, and lighting.

This proved that here was no longer the ancient mansion.

“Try to remember exactly what happened at the last moment in the ancient mansion.” Yang Jian reminded.

“The last happenings in the ancient mansion…” Eagle begins to recall, his memory didn’t linger on the day he was cursed and killed by the Eight-Tone Music Box, but rather on the moment he was preparing to confront the Ghost Dice.

Because Yang Jian didn’t constantly read his memory, he only read it once at that time.

“I remember the back door of the ancient mansion was invaded by ghosts, in a desperate situation Wang Feng used the Ghost Dice, played a game with ghosts, trying to block the malevolent spirit, but he failed, died in the game… I was preparing to take over afterwards, I can only remember so much, I should be dead, I have no memory of anything after that.”

Eagle immediately realized his situation; he looked at his body.

“Also this is not my body…Yang Jian, you resurrected me?”

“Being able to realize this means your thinking is intact.”

Yang Jian said: “Indeed, you died in the ancient mansion, and I resurrected you through certain supernatural means. However, I can’t confirm whether you are truly Eagle after the resurrection or something else, which is why I needed to ask questions.”

“Resurrecting the dead, is that even possible?” Eagle was shocked looking at Yang Jian.

“Who can truly say anything for certain about supernatural powers.”

Yang Jian said: “It’s merely resurrecting a dead person, nothing too extraordinary.”

“Is that so.” Eagle fell into contemplation.

He was determining his identity, affirming his existence.

“I feel there seems to be no problem with myself, just that my memory stops at the moment before my death, this resurrection seems to have really brought me back.”

Yang Jian didn’t speak.

Eagle’s memory didn’t truly stop at the moment before death, but at the moment Yang Jian read his memory.

“What happened with the ancient mansion task? Is it completed? It should be done, given that I’ve been resurrected. If the task failed, I shouldn’t have had this chance to revive.” Eagle immediately said.

Yang Jian said; “The messenger’s letter delivery task no longer concerns you; you have completely freed yourself from the curse of the post office, rid yourself of everything from before and began anew.”

“I see, my previous self died, hence the post office’s curse vanished, I now have a new body, a new identity, so no longer suffer the control of the post office.” Eagle understood his state.

This is the result he has been dreaming of.

Breaking free from the post office, starting anew, returning to the life of an ordinary person.
