Chapter 287 The Extra Well
Yang Jian looked at the ghost child in his hand and commanded:
"Go down."

The ghost child trembled slightly, but did not jump off Yang Jian's grasp, still staring at him curiously.

Yang Jian frowned, realizing something. A ghost eye emerged from his forehead, clearly sensing the connection between him and the ghost child.

Without needing to speak, he issued a command through the invisible connection between the ghost eye and the ghost child.

The ghost child's palm-sized body suddenly climbed up from Yang Jian's hands, then jumped down and landed lightly on the ground. Wang Shanshan even subconsciously tried to catch it.

Yang Jian turned to Wang Liang and said, "It can be controlled, but it doesn't feel quite secure. Does this really mean we've stolen the Hungry Ghost's supernatural power?"

"You can also get insurance."

Thick, cold blood seeped from Wang Liang's palm, and an old newspaper slowly emerged from his hand.

"Ghost newspaper, modifying ghosts' memories? It's certainly worth a try, but I don't know if it will work." Yang Jian recognized it and looked enlightened.

"It should be fine. You can modify your ghost child; you can change whatever you want." Wang Liang handed the newspaper to Yang Jian.

Yang Jian took the ghost newspaper with great interest. Having fought against the newspaper ghost before, he roughly knew how to use this newspaper.

He reached out and unfolded the old newspaper, sticking the side that looked like it was stained with blood onto the ghost child's face.

The newspaper absorbed the paper, then detached, revealing a tiny, grotesque face.

Wang Liang moved a pen over and tossed it to Yang Jian.

"Just write down the memory you want to revise on the newspaper with a pen."

Yang Jian had already decided what he wanted to write, and the first sentence he wrote down was:

They completely obeyed the orders of Yang Jian, Wang Shanshan, and Wang Liang.

Wang Liang simply watched quietly from the side, without making a sound to disturb them.

Since it was a vengeful ghost, Yang Jian still felt uneasy after writing this line, so he added two more.

There was no order prohibiting killing.

Do not appear in crowded places without permission.

The more concise the memory modification, the better. Yang Jian felt that the modification was almost complete, so he returned the newspaper to Teacher Wang and used Ghost Shadow to piece the ghost child's face back together.

After the ghost child reawakened, Yang Jian gave a few simple orders.

The ghost child opened its blood-red eyes, stood up and did as instructed, including walking in place, turning to the right, and doing ten push-ups.

Seeing that the ghost child obeyed, Yang Jian sighed, "This is raising a ghost."

This is not a vengeful ghost that he controls himself, yet he can command and control it; what else could it be but raising a ghost?

Wang Liang cautioned, "Ghost children aren't true vengeful spirits; they can be destroyed. When they're weak, don't let them fight against those terrifying vengeful spirits. Once lost, it'll be difficult to recreate them."

And just in case, don't feed it too many vengeful spirits, lest its terror surpass yours. Start by feeding it some beef or mutton, or one or two weaker spirits. Otherwise, who knows what might happen, since you haven't fully mastered the Ghost Eye.

"I understand," Yang Jian replied solemnly.

"Alright, now that the ghost child is confirmed to be fine, you can take it and Wang Shanshan back to Dachang City."

At this point, Wang Liang recalled his ghost dream.

Yang Jian's strengths and weaknesses are not much different in front of Gui Meng.

Even those without consciousness are sometimes pulled into dreams, becoming ordinary people who are attacked by vengeful ghosts.

To control the ghost dream, we still need to rely on the backup plan left by Yang Jian's father.

So it's okay to contact him sooner rather than later. After all, it will take some time for the ghost dream to be devoured by the dog that Yang Jian's father kept in his dream and become a new ghost dream.

Go sooner, complete the transformation sooner, and improve your strength sooner.

So he said to Yang Jian, "After you go back, you can visit your hometown. There are some things your father left you there. Be careful."

"My dad?" Yang Jian was taken aback. "What? Teacher Wang, do you know my dad?"

"It's too complicated to explain. There's some danger, but not much. Just be careful, and you'll see when you get there."

Wang Liang waved his hand and began to shoo people away.

Yang Jian could only nod helplessly. The ghost domain enveloped Wang Shanshan and the ghost child on the ground, transforming into a streak of red light and rushing towards Dachang City.

After Yang Jian left, Wang Liang didn't leave; he simply sat down on the sofa in the villa.

Ghost blood gushed out from beneath their feet, and a sturdy golden chest slowly rose from it, containing the source of the Ghost Well.

Wang Liang lifted the lid of the box, and a damp, putrid stench wafted out. Inside lay the white-clad corpse of a woman, her forehead nailed shut by coffin nails. [Control.]

With the system's intervention, the suppressed ghost puzzle pieces were instantly refined.

The female corpse, with her forehead nailed to the ground, slowly disappeared from the spot; even the nails could not stop the vengeful ghost from vanishing.

With a crash, the coffin nails fell into the open box, but there were no more vengeful ghosts inside.

Wang Liang had his eyes closed, and his body exuded an intense, lingering chill, with a faint, sinister aura emanating from him.

The villa complex where Wang Liang lives has just been built, and many people have already reserved houses, but no one has moved in yet.

It was already dark, and the only lights on were at Wang Liang's villa, the streetlights, and the sales office.

Wang Liang sat in the living room with his eyes closed. The cold atmosphere made the chandelier above his head flicker a few times before going out, plunging the living room into darkness.

The cold, damp air seeped outwards, and the streetlights near the villa flickered and went out, plunging the area into darkness.

This situation lasted for several tens of seconds, until Wang Liang opened his eyes again.

The chandelier above started flickering again, casting the living room light on and off.

At that moment, the television screen that Wang Liang was facing suddenly lit up, flickered and distorted for a few seconds, and then suddenly displayed a strange gray-white image.

Rows of crooked, withered trees stand in the background, while the ground in front is almost entirely covered with dry leaves.

In the center of the withered leaves, a well sits.

After controlling the Mirror Ghost and completing Sadako's Demon Domain, this scene appeared on all electronic devices with screens within the area covered by the Demon Domain.

But in the past, this picture was missing a part: the well.

Now, the well has been repaired!

The image flickers erratically for a moment, then a hand emerges from the well in the picture and clings to the well wall, followed by a second hand.

With both hands braced against the well wall, a head with loose black hair, its face completely obscured, slowly emerged from the well.

The black-haired head was facing the screen. Although the ghost's eyes were not visible, there was an indescribable eeriness about it, giving one a sense of unease as if being watched.

Wang Liang sat quietly on the sofa, watching the eerie scene, gazing at the vengeful ghost within, and feeling the changes within his body.

The television screen flickered again, and the female ghost, whose head was the only part of her body visible in the well, emerged completely after the flicker. She stood in front of the well, barefoot on the ground covered with withered leaves, dressed in dirty white clothes, her head bowed, motionless.

Nourishing.

The screen went black.

But a well suddenly appeared in the actual living room!

Right in front of the blacked-out television, a pale hand reached out from the well, followed by a second one.

As if the scene were being reenacted in reality, a head whose face was obscured by black hair slowly emerged from the well, quietly watching Wang Liang sitting on the sofa in the dark living room.

However, this time the scene became reality, and the ghost in the well also appeared in reality.

A thin, damp mist rose from the well wall, quickly thickening and enveloping the living room, just like the Ghost Well had been.

A faint dripping sound could be heard in the living room, the sound muffled and indistinct, making it impossible to tell which direction it was coming from.

The fog could no longer obstruct Wang Liang's vision, because now it was his fog.

Wang Liang seemed to be deep in thought. After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly put on an iron claw glove on his right hand, raised it, and swung it directly at his left hand without any hesitation.

pat.

His left hand was severed, and the severed hand fell to the ground, blood spurting from the wrist and staining the ground red.

The pain was real, but Wang Liang remained unfazed and continued to sit calmly on the sofa.

Sadako's ghostly aura opened, and a grayish-white hue suddenly enveloped Wang Liang, making him feel as if he were sitting on a sofa in reality, yet inside a funeral portrait.

Moreover, this grayish-white color deepened rapidly in the surrounding damp and hazy mist, becoming so thick that it became indistinct, making his figure in the grayish-white color impossible to see, only a blurry human outline could be seen.

In less than a second, the gray-white color disappeared, and Wang Liang's figure reappeared.

But by then, his severed left hand had fully recovered, as if it had never been severed at all.

Wang Liang's pupils dilated slightly; he clearly sensed the change that had just occurred.
Time restarted!
