Mysterious Revival: Controlling Ghosts Starts with a Bug

Chapter 41 Value

After wiping out the Xiaoqiang Club, Yang Jian only gained fifteen evil spirits, and also encountered a powerful enemy like Wang Xiaoming who was eyeing him covetously.

Not to mention that three evil ghosts have already been handed over. If the headless ghost that was controlled is deducted, Yang Jian will only have eleven evil ghosts in his hands.

Xu Kong just opened his mouth and 8 more were taken away. No wonder he felt heartbroken.

Looking at Xu Kong's smiling expression, Yang Jian couldn't help but ask.

"Can we negotiate the price?"

Then, he received a look as if he was looking at Qizhen.

"of course can."

Although Xu Kong's eyes were not very polite, his answer made Yang Jian's eyes light up, and then the next words made his rising heart calm down.

"As long as you can suppress the ghost cabinet's spirit or change the ghost cabinet's trading rules, you can bargain however you want."

"After all, I'm just a 'worker'."

Since the transaction subject Guichu was in a state of unconsciousness, Xu Kong, who had full authority to act on behalf of Guichu, said so.

I guess Guichui wouldn't jump out to refute it, right?
Yang Jian’s face darkened.

If he could suppress the Ghost Cabinet or modify the rules of the Ghost Cabinet, why would he want to trade with the Ghost Cabinet?
"So, do you want to pay now or in a week?"

Xu Kong didn't care about Yang Jian's emotions and still provided him with smiling "service", pointing out two payment time points.

Yang Jian took a deep breath to calm himself down, and forced himself not to look at Xu Kong's smile. He raised his hand and picked up eight golden boxes and bags of varying sizes from under the table and pushed them to Xu Kong.

"…Let's get rid of them now. These are eight evil spirits."

The smile on Xu Kong's face deepened.

"You are indeed a high-quality customer that I have chosen."

As he freed the evil spirits from the golden boxes and bags and imprisoned them one by one, he began to praise.

"I'm already looking forward to your future."

As the number of ghost messengers' unconditional suppression increased by 8 again, Xu Kong pushed the eight golden boxes and bags back to Yang Jian one by one, and then continued to ask.

"Now, do you want to continue the transaction?"

"As long as there are enough evil spirits, the ghost cabinet will never let you down."

"……Next time."

Yang Jian hesitated for a moment, but after looking under the table, he chose to refuse.

There are not many evil spirits left.

Regardless of whether it is a capitalist or a ghost, there will never be a loss in the transaction.

Although Xu Kong's credibility is guaranteed, this is what Yang Jian is worried about.

If you choose to trade, and if there are not enough evil spirits at the time, who knows whether the ghost cabinet will directly take out the evil spirits it controls as the "balance payment" in order to ensure the normal progress of the transaction?

After all, this does not violate the trading rules of the ghost cabinet.

And Xu Kong?
Naturally, Yang Jian would not place his hopes on this unresisting "worker".

"Well, I hope we can continue to cooperate next time."

Xu Kong, who was sitting opposite the table, did not force him. He just shook his head and prepared to get up and say goodbye.

"When you want to trade, prepare enough evil spirits and contact me directly."

"I'll reply when I see the message."

"Wait, let's finish dinner first?"

Yang Jian raised his hand to try to keep the guest, intending to use the dinner as an opportunity to build friendship and gain information.

"It happens to be dinner time now. I have already booked a banquet with Ping An Building."

As he spoke, he picked up his phone and prepared to contact the hotel to deliver the food.

"Dingle bell! Dingle bell!"

Before Xu Kong could answer, he heard a bell suddenly ringing in Yang Jian's hand.

He took a look, frowned slightly, then made an apologetic gesture to Xu Kong and put the phone to his ear to answer it.

"I'm Yang Jian, what's going on?"

"I'm Wang Xiaoming."

A calm voice came from the other side of the phone, speaking to Yang Jian.

"Please give the phone to Xu Kong."

"I represent the headquarters and have something to 'deal' with him."

Yang Jian listened with a frown, looked up at Xu Kong, and raised his phone to signal. "Someone from headquarters said on the phone that they want to 'trade' with you. Do you accept this order?"

Xu Kong raised his eyebrows and did not respond. He just took the phone from Yang Jian and turned on the speakerphone.

"Hello? I'm Xu Kong."

"I'm Wang Xiaoming, director of the Interpol Asia Headquarters Research Institute. You can call me Professor Wang, or just call me by my name."

The person on the other end of the phone introduced himself, then got straight to the point without any hesitation.

"Xu Kong, the rule of the 'Ghost Cabinet' you control is 'trading', right? On behalf of the headquarters, I intend to conduct a 'trading' with the Ghost Cabinet. Are there any restrictions?"

"...If there are any restrictions, then it would probably be to only accept evil spirits, right?"

Xu Kong thought for a moment with a seemingly innocent look, and then gave an answer.

"As for the rest? There's no limit to what the ghost cabinet can do."

"it is good."

On the opposite side, Wang Xiaoming nodded and asked again.

"I want to trade face to face. Can you wait at Ping An Building? It will only take ten minutes."

"……Can."

Xu Kong looked at the time and did not refuse.

"Okay then, see you in ten minutes."

After he finished speaking, Wang Xiaoming simply hung up the phone.

Xu Kong looked at his phone in surprise, then burst into laughter.

Wang Xiaoming is impolite.

But when you think about it, since they have the headquarters behind them and have been living with the short-lived ghost riders for a long time, it is understandable that the evil ghosts only follow rules and not human feelings, so they develop this habit.

Coincidentally, Xu Kong didn't like this kind of politeness very much.

He now likes to see an increase in the number of ghost catchers to be suppressed.

Because this means that the horror of the ghost consciousness can be nurtured by the ghost coffin.

Xu Kong handed the phone back to Yang Jian.

After he took it, he pondered for a moment and spoke.

"Xu Kong, I suggest you be careful of Wang Xiaoming."

"How to say?"

Xu Kong looked up and asked back.

"He can be said to be cold-blooded and profit-oriented, or he can be said to have great ambitions and be determined."

Yang Jian judged.

"I had just killed his brother. Wang Xiaoming was so furious that he wanted to kill me on the spot."

"And at that time, he actually had the ability."

Yang Jian deliberately emphasized this point and then continued.

"But after discovering that I was really on the verge of reviving as a ghost and could cause great harm at any time, and I proposed to use me as a test subject in a 'trade' with you, Wang Xiaoming was able to suppress his hatred and choose to take a step back."

"The reason is that I am more valuable than his dead brother, and I cannot die worthlessly just because of his personal emotions."

"He also told me to do my best to maintain my own value, otherwise he would kill me."

"As a researcher at the headquarters, doesn't Wang Xiaoming know that as ghost riders, as long as we can survive, the value we create will only grow? He didn't take action at the time, and he never had the chance to take action again."

Yang Jian sneered and answered his own questions.

"Of course he knows!"

“It’s just that he valued everything, including himself.”

"And people like this are often the most terrifying."

"Just a moment ago, I was having a nice conversation with you and thinking about you with all my heart."

"The next moment, if they judge that you are not worthy enough, they will turn against you without hesitation."

"Do you think we should be careful with people like this?"

Opposite Yang Jian, Xu Kong listened and nodded in agreement, then suddenly turned his head to look at the camera in the corner and asked curiously.

"Then why are you telling me this? Aren't you afraid that he might hear it?"
