Mysterious Revival: Controlling Ghosts Starts with a Bug

Chapter 38 Reputation
"Xu Kong...long time no see."

After not seeing each other for a week, Yang Jian's voice was a little hoarse, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was numb and stiff.

Xu Kong could feel that there were five or six pairs of eyes looking at him at the same time from different parts of Yang Jian's body, but when the gazes were about to fall on him, they turned away.

Obviously, Yang Jian's condition was not very good.

"Is the 'balance' ready?"

Xu Kong pulled out a stool and sat opposite Yang Jian.

"Ready."

Yang Jian pushed a small golden box over.

Xu Kong didn't care about the danger and opened it directly, revealing a pitch-black palm.

As the golden box opened, a mysterious feeling emerged.

The hand began to move.

"very good."

Xu Kong nodded, stretched out his hand and suppressed the dark ghost palm.

The number of ghost messengers who can be unconditionally suppressed is +1.

He looked at Yang Jian and said seriously.

"Deal closed."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Jian suddenly felt something sticky under his feet.

Looking down, he saw streams of scarlet blood oozing out of his body, flowing to his feet, and then evaporating and disappearing.

When the blood appeared, the ghost eye controlled by Yang Jian fell silent again, with no sign of revival.

Obviously, this was Xu Kong taking back the supernatural power of the ghost cabinet.

Originally, the act of taking back the ghost cabinet's supernatural power could be done silently.

The difference in the degree of terror was so great that Yang Jian would not be able to detect even a little bit of it.

But out of the sense of ritual of the transaction and to make Yang Jian feel that the transaction was worth it, Xu Kong specially prepared this scene.

And the result was just as Xu Kong expected.

Although Yang Jian was frightened at first, he soon felt relieved.

When the ghost in the ghost cabinet disappeared in the room, Xu Kong reached out and pushed the empty golden box back.

He is such a noble man and not greedy at all.

"Will there be further transactions?"

Then, Xu Kong took out the ghost mirror that he had put away earlier and placed it flat on the table.

He specifically demonstrated that the evil ghost inside still looked like Zhang Wei, and then asked.

"Whether you want a ghost mirror that can 'resurrect' you, or you want to suppress the resurrection of your evil spirit, you can do it through trading."

"Just looking at your condition, you don't have many days left to live, right?"

"I suggest that you choose to suppress the resurrection of the evil spirit."

"As long as you can survive, there will always be a future."

Xu Kong said meaningfully.

Yang Jian's face moved slightly, as if he wanted to force a smile, but he failed because his muscles were too stiff under the influence of the supernatural.

He noticed this, but didn't care. He just rolled his bloodshot eyes, looked at Xu Kong, and spoke.

"I want to control the second ghost. What's the price?"

"Controlling a second ghost? The price is different from suppressing the resurrection of evil spirits. Are you sure?"

Xu Kong raised his eyebrows.

This action made Yang Jian’s eyes roll again.

To be honest, in Yang Jian's opinion, apart from his inhumanly pale face, Xu Kong didn't look like a ghost rider at all.

There are no dead muscles, no disfigured skin, and no unconcealable corpse stench.

"It's as if... as if... as if this paleness is deliberately put on, just to show others that I am a ghost rider."

A thought flashed through Yang Jian's mind, but he immediately denied it.

Does the ghost rider need to disguise his identity?
Yang Jian looked at Xu Kong and said in a hoarse voice.

"What price?"

"Two evil spirits."

Xu Kong answered straightforwardly.

"The first payment? Or the full payment?"

The lesson from the previous incident was just now, and Yang Jian couldn't help but ask one more question.

Xu Kong smiled but said nothing. Yang Jian understood.

Obviously, this is just the first paragraph.

If he agreed to the deal, he would have to pay another price after controlling the second evil ghost.

"What's the balance?"

Yang Jian asked.

"Evil spirits are the general equivalent of the supernatural world. The exact price depends on the evil spirit you control. The difference is made up based on the difficulty."

Xu Kong's answer was vague.

Yang Jian also understood the meaning.

1. The final payment must also be delivered by a fierce ghost.

2. The more powerful and influential the second evil spirit you control, the higher the final payment you will have to pay. If you pay more, you will not get a refund, but if you pay less, you will have to make up for it.

Apart from anything else, the second point alone is a pure unfair clause.

If this were to be told before the mysterious resurrection, the whole country would be filled with curses.

But in this mysterious world of revival, Xu Kong's transactions can be unanimously appreciated by everyone.

Because the deal he agreed to can definitely be done.

At a critical moment of life and death, what does a few unfair terms mean?
For Yang Jian, he did hesitate for a while between the human skin paper and Xu Kong.

Compared with Xu Kong's transaction, the price for human skin paper would be obviously lower.

But Xu Kong's deal seemed more secure - his credibility was confirmed by the handwriting on the human skin paper.

But human skin paper has basically no credibility in Yang Jian's eyes.

Xu Kong also has problems. His price may be many times that of human skin paper, and there is also the hidden danger of raising ghosts...

But Yang Jian only thought about it for a short while before he quickly made up his mind - to make a deal with Xu Kong.

The reason is simple: the human skin paper is his own thing.

If he trades evil spirits with someone else and gives him parchment, he will be the first one to suffer the consequences.

And he was just a trading partner of Xu Kong.

Even if Xu Kong made a mistake in "raising ghosts", the problems would be borne by ghost masters all over the world.

On one hand, you are fully responsible, and on the other hand, you only have the responsibility to participate.

Yang Jian could naturally tell what was more important.

As for carrying the safety of the whole world on your shoulders?
Feel sorry!

At present, Yang Jian is still struggling with the survival crisis caused by the resurgence of the evil spirit.

and so……

"I want a deal. Help me control the second evil spirit."

Yang Jian took out another small golden box, put it aside, and said expressionlessly.

"The target is the headless ghost inside."

"can."

Xu Kong nodded and took a special look at the small golden box.

For him, helping Yang Jian control the second ghost was easy. At the moment, he was just curious about this evil ghost that was mentioned in great detail in the original novel.

Yang Jian took out two small golden boxes from under the table again and pushed them over.

"These are two evil spirits, as the price of the transaction."

Xu Kong opened it and took a look.

Inside the two golden boxes, one is a human skin with a ghost tattoo, and the other is a ghost hand with only four fingers.

Xu Kong took away the two evil ghosts, and the number of ghost catchers to suppress increased by 2 again.

Then he looked under Yang Jian's table, curious about how many evil spirits Yang Jian had prepared, as they seemed to be endless.

Yang Jian naturally noticed Xu Kong's gaze, but he had no intention of explaining. He just pushed the small box containing the headless ghost forward and asked.

"What do you need to prepare?"

"No need to prepare, you can do it anytime."

Xu Kong shook his head, then looked towards a corner of the room and said meaningfully.

"But, are you sure you want to control a second evil spirit in front of everyone in this hall?"

In that corner, a hidden camera was flickering.
