Mysterious resurgence

There is less than half an hour of decision-making time left. Yang Jian's decision at this moment involves the life and death of many people, even the life and death of his own family.

But now there were only two choices before him.

Either confront the evil ghost, imprison the evil ghost, and completely solve the supernatural events caused by the wishing ghost.

Either don't take action and let the wishing ghost complete the deal with him.

The former is risky. As long as it succeeds, all people affected by the ghost can live safely. But if it fails, there is no doubt that many people will die today.

The latter is less risky, and Yang Jian doesn't need to do anything to keep everyone alive, but this kind of survival risk is very high, because their lives are still under the control of Li Gui.

"Ghosts must be imprisoned without compromise. Once the wishing ghost breaks free from the influence of the rules, the consequences will be unimaginable. And like Wang Shanshan, I do not believe that the ghost will be completely released after safely passing twelve o'clock. If the ghost continues to kill people, there is nothing I can do to stop it, and things will be even more difficult if the initiative is no longer in my hands."

Yang Jian has made up his mind.

If you compromise, you will lose worse. You can only fight hard and win this round.

But what should be done to completely ensure that the wishing ghost can be imprisoned smoothly? That was a fierce ghost that barely appeared in outline in the fifth-level ghost realm. It was extremely hidden, and the wishing ghost itself was also a very terrifying existence.

"The wishing ghost does not appear, which proves that the trap I set is effective. If I just stay here, the wishing ghost will definitely enter here before twelve o'clock, and then fall into the trap and be imprisoned by me. But in this result A lot of people will definitely die before it arrives.”

"Then there is only one way to not only want people to die but also to imprison the evil ghost, and that is to remove the trap, make the ghost mistakenly think that I will make a deal with it, and then imprison it at that moment."

"So the most difficult thing now is how to trick the ghost, and how to ensure that the ghost can be imprisoned 100% without making mistakes?"

Yang Jian fell into silence alone, thinking about this problem.

The coffin nail's imprisonment was of course foolproof, but he believed that as long as the coffin nail was in his hand, it would be difficult for the ghost to show up.

Therefore, he must give up supernatural weapons, and at the same time, he must be undefended against the wishing ghost.

"Yang Jian, there is not much time left to think. The movement outside has stopped. Something seems wrong." Liu Qi said in a suppressed voice at this moment.

The men in black who acted just now pushed out all the people who were affected by the supernatural who poured into the hall. The two sides were originally fighting each other, but at this time, the people in the Peace Hotel suddenly stopped their actions, and they all stood still. He was motionless and no longer rushed towards here.

"This means that the ghost has given up on using numbers to break the trap and successfully survive tonight. If the ghost does not plan to confront Yang Jian head-on, then it means that its previous plan will be implemented. From now on, our relatives will We are in danger of being attacked by evil spirits." Wang Shanshan said.

Before she finished speaking, someone's cell phone rang immediately.

"My mobile phone." Zhang Wei hurriedly answered the phone.

There was a panicked voice on the other side of the phone. It was his father Zhang Xiangui who was asking for help: "Awei, hurry up, go and tell Brother Leg, my place seems to be haunted, something is following me, I'm very worried now." of fear."

"Dad, it's okay. It's just a ghost. That ghost won't kill you now. I haven't received the last piece of egg fried rice yet. You have to be brave and go over and slap it a few times. I promise it won’t fight back. Besides, Brother Leg will take care of this matter. You have to trust us. Well, that’s it. If I have anything else to do, I’ll hang up first.”

"Awei, don't hang up yet. I'm not kidding, that thing is really next to me." Zhang Xiangui's tone revealed panic.

Zhang Wei replied: "Dad, can you act like a man? We have never seen any big winds and waves. That thing really can't kill people for the time being. It just scares you. You should be happy, eat and drink when you should, and keep smiling. If something goes wrong, a lot of us will be with you, so what are you afraid of?"

After a few words of comfort, Zhang Wei immediately hung up the phone. He cursed and said: "Damn, this is too bad. The person the ghost is targeting is my dad."

"Obviously, it intends to kill your father first, and then others. It will force Yang Jian to make concessions by killing people. And as it gets closer to twelve o'clock, the ghost will definitely become more and more crazy." Wang Shanshan He said with a cold face.

Miao Xiaoshan reminded: "What do you think about letting everyone hide in a safe house first? I remember that Yang Jian built a lot of safe houses in Dachang City."

"There is no chance. The ghost is watching from the side. If it wants to kill people, it will definitely do it before ordinary people enter the safe house. However, with the ability of an ordinary person, there is no way to resist. They will not be able to enter the safe house alive." Liu Qi shook his head. Head said.

"Okay, don't talk anymore, I already have the answer in my heart." Yang Jian finished his thinking and said.

immediately.

Everyone stopped discussing, but looked at Yang Jian, waiting for the final result.

Time was running out now, so Yang Jian didn't waste any more words. He said, "Awei, put out the oil lamp in your hand."

"What?" Zhang Wei was stunned for a moment.

"Put out the oil lamp. There is no need to light the oil lamp again. Ghosts will not dare to show up when this thing is on." After Yang Jian finished speaking, he also took the initiative to blow out the oil lamp in his hand.

Wang Shanshan's expression changed: "Are you going to compromise with the ghost? This is a wrong decision. Although I know that you care about everyone's lives, ghosts cannot be trusted. They have no integrity at all. So far, they have been shackles It’s the rules, so you have to imprison the ghost.”

"I know, but no one can bear the price right now. Each of us has to die a relative before imprisoning the ghost. And this is just the beginning. There are still twenty-five minutes left. During this time, the ghost can still If we continue to kill people, more people may die than we thought." Yang Jian said, he walked to the table and extinguished the lit ghost incense and ghost candles.

Without the presence of ghost incense, ghost candles and corpse oil lamps, this trap would completely disappear.

Although Zhang Wei was unwilling to give in at this moment, he immediately extinguished the oil lamp in his hand.

All preparations for imprisoning the evil spirits were withdrawn.

In addition, Yang Jian raised his hand and waved. The cracked spear in his hand penetrated the glass window and was thrown away by him. It flew hundreds of meters away and finally fell to an unknown place. .

"Are you even giving up your weapons? There is a coffin nail on it. You are giving up all the means of imprisoning evil ghosts. This is too hard. If something unexpected happens, you won't even be able to react. There are no means to control it." Liu Qi was stunned for a moment, and he understood Yang Jian's method.

"I see."

After Yang Jian had done all this, it was not enough. He immediately ordered the men in black around him: "Get back and stop blocking those people outside."

Not only were the traps abolished and the supernatural weapons thrown away, but even the men in black who maintained order were evacuated.

All means against evil ghosts were discarded.

After hearing the order, the man in black immediately retreated and got out of the way without any hesitation, no longer blocking those who were affected by the supernatural.

Others saw this in their eyes and did not question Yang Jian's decision at this moment.

Perhaps, in Yang Jian's opinion, this is the best choice.

Without the obstruction of the men in black, the people outside the door started moving again. They poured into the hall in an orderly manner. Soon the spacious hall was filled with people, and there was only a little space left. The only one left was near the table where Yang Jian and others were.

"Damn it, the ghost is still controlling these people even though they have shown sincerity." Liu Qi said with some embarrassment.

"This is to prevent us from suddenly regretting lighting the ghost incense and ghost candle again. Now that so many people have entered the hall, even if I light it again, it will not help."

Yang Jian said, and then he glanced at the dense crowd around him: "It's just that I have sincerity, and I also have to see the sincerity of the ghost. Otherwise, the worst is possible."

He finished with this sentence.

soon.

The dense crowd in front suddenly made a way, and a few people with cold auras suddenly appeared in the crowd. They were lined up in a row, each holding something in their hands. Some of them were holding a bowl of egg fried rice. , someone is holding a piece of clothing, and someone is holding a pearl necklace. These things may seem ordinary, but they all represent a transaction.

Now that the item that fulfills the wish is here, it means that Li Gui's actions have stopped.

Zhang Wei's cell phone also rang at this moment, and the call came from his father Zhang Xiangui again: "Ah Wei, the ghost seems to have disappeared. Ask Brother Leg, am I safe?"

"Dad, don't be so afraid of death, okay? I told you everything will be fine, and I'm very busy now. Don't disturb me with phone calls every day. You make me embarrassed in front of my friends. Do you know that tonight? I won’t go back, you go to bed early, okay, that’s it.”

Zhang Wei said something and then hung up the phone again.

"The ghost's sincerity comes very quickly. It seems that it really hopes to solve the matter in this way. The more it does, the more it will suffer. This shows that it knows that it will lose in a head-on confrontation." Wang Shanshan said.

Yang Jian said: "Things are at least moving in a good direction. Everyone's relatives are safe and sound now."

"What should we do next?" Liu Qi asked.

"Don't do anything. When the ghost appears in front of me, don't be nervous. Sit down and rest. There are still twenty minutes left. The ghost probably won't appear so soon. It will probably appear in the last few minutes. Show up." Yang Jian sat down again, and he no longer took any action.

Seeing this scene, several other people had no choice but to sit down.

As soon as everyone took their seats, the crowd of people around them took a few steps forward again, compressing the space even more. The person at the front was almost touching everyone, and they could touch each other just by leaning back a little.

After these people blocked the space, they circled around like human walls without any movement.

It's just that the lights that were on above everyone's heads were flickering again at this time.

The lights flickered on and off, and a coldness gradually emerged in the surrounding air.

This coldness touches people's skin, making people's hairs stand on end, as if something is blowing cold air around them.

"The ghost should have entered the hall, it is definitely among the crowd."

Liu Qi moved his eyes left and right, trying to find some clues, but unfortunately he could not see anything through the thick wall of people, and the people around him were as motionless as wooden figures.

"Ignore it, there's nothing we can do now." Yang Jian didn't even open his ghost eyes now, and seemed to have put down all his guard.

The scene was silent at the moment, and the air was particularly oppressive, making one breathless.

But this state lasted for only a few minutes, and then the flickering lights in the hall began to go out completely.

The lights went out from far to near, constantly approaching the table where Yang Jian and others were sitting.

The time came to 11:50 pm.

There are only ten minutes left.

At this moment, all the lights were turned off, and an inconspicuous little light bulb above Yang Jian's head was still on. However, the light of this small light bulb was very weak and fluctuated, and it could only barely illuminate the table.

It was pitch black outside the table, all the light was swallowed up, and I couldn't see my fingers.

Surrounding the table, everyone could only see rows of blurry humanoid outlines behind them. They couldn't tell who was who, and they weren't even sure whether the person standing behind them was a human or a ghost.

The five people were looking at each other at this moment, some were nervous, some were uneasy, and some were calm.

"This is not a normal lights out, but something supernatural has affected the entire hall. It has formed a quite strong ghost realm. It seems that the ghost will appear in front of us within the last ten minutes." Liu Qi felt the darkness around him.

At this moment, he felt that the darkness was boundless, as if he had fallen into a supernatural space and was no longer in the Peace Hotel.

Then, Liu Qi's scarlet lips moved slightly. Although no sound came out, the sound rang in Yang Jian's mind: "Yang Jian, can you tell me the truth? Are you trying to trick that ghost out, or are you really planning to compromise?" ?If it’s the former, I can cooperate with you.”

At this time, Liu Qicai stopped acting and planned to ask Yang Jian about his true purpose.

He didn't believe that Yang Jian's character would compromise with Li Gui, and he believed that this was a trap set by Yang Jian.

Only by dispelling the superficial trap can the real trap be laid to lure the evil spirits to take the bait.

Yang Jian didn't speak, just glanced at Liu Qi, and then shook his head slightly.

Liu Qi moved his lips slightly again and said, "I understand."

The time came to eleven fifty-five.

In these last five minutes.

A clear sound of footsteps suddenly appeared in the darkness.

The direction of the footsteps was very clear, right in front of Yang Jian and behind Zhang Wei.

"Damn, that thing is coming." Zhang Wei was startled and turned to look, but was blocked by a person standing in the darkness and couldn't see anything.

Wang Shanshan and Miao Xiaoshan remained silent and shut up. The best thing they could do at this time was to be quiet and not cause trouble to Yang Jian.

The footsteps kept moving forward without stopping, and the sound gradually got closer.

"Zhang Wei, don't move, just sit there and don't look back." Yang Jian said.

"Okay, okay, I won't move." Zhang Wei immediately sat upright and didn't move around, but his eyes were moving around.

soon.

A person behind Zhang Wei took the initiative to make way, and then the footsteps stopped abruptly behind him.

But in the eyes of everyone, there was nothing in the empty space behind Zhang Wei. There was no ghost at all, nothing abnormal, just darkness.

But while everyone was staring.

In the darkness at that location, the outline of a human figure gradually emerged.

It seems that a real evil ghost is about to appear.

Yang Jian's face was calm and he remained motionless, and his ghost eyes did not open, so even he couldn't see clearly what was behind Zhang Wei in this situation.

Zhang Wei's whole body tensed up at this moment. He wanted to turn around to find out, but at Yang Jian's signal, he resisted the urge and did not look back.

But he could feel that there was indeed a person standing there behind him.

No matter how big-hearted he was, he couldn't help but sweat break out on his forehead at this time.

soon.

The outline in the darkness became clearer and clearer, and the man gradually bent down and leaned over, exposing an extremely unfamiliar face to the faint light above everyone's heads.

Gui now abides by his agreement and is going to meet Yang Jian.

But it hid behind Zhang Wei, seemingly worried about Yang Jian's sudden attack.

Yang Jian stared at the stranger's face that appeared behind Zhang Wei, still remaining calm.
