Chapter 183 Mastering an Alternative Reboot! (1 words)

The information provided by the human skin paper is all true; this is the rule of the vengeful ghost, and it cannot be changed.

However, judging from the attitude of the paper doll in answering the questions, Lu Ming had good reason to suspect that the paper doll had used real information to create a terrible trap for itself, in order to kill him.

As for the motive behind the paper doll killing him...
Very simple.

If Lu Ming continues to be controlled and forced to work, he will definitely find a way to kill that person.

Lu Ming's expression changed slightly, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

The fact that the curse will break out six days later may not necessarily be a bad thing.

There are many benefits to be gained from this, which is quite important for future plans.

The "I" here refers to the ghost bride.

The future plans undoubtedly include weddings and funerals.

"The ghost bride was holding the human skin paper, which is why this situation is happening. I need to ask her again."

Thinking of this, Lu Ming calmly took the human skin paper from the ghost bride's hand.

What will happen at the ghost feast six days from now? What will be my fate?

Lu Ming repeated the question he had asked earlier.

The paper trembled slightly.

This time, however, no writing appeared on the surface of the parchment.

Lu Ming sneered: "You're not satisfied because you didn't manage to trick me? My patience is limited, and I won't repeat myself. If you're still only thinking about harming people like this, then you have no reason to appear."

After saying that, he looked at Yang Jian, who was not far away, and confirmed, "Yang Jian, this ghost thing is a bit evil. It only thinks about how to harm people... I'll help you deal with it. Afterwards, I'll give you three ghost candles, three substitute dolls, and a piece of ghost porcelain as compensation. What do you think?"

Yang Jian immediately understood Lu Ming's meaning and nodded in agreement without any hesitation: "No problem. I haven't used this human skin paper for a long time. If I easily follow the information it provides to deal with supernatural events, I'm afraid I won't even know how I died in the end. If you can help me deal with it this time, it will be a good thing."

Lu Ming and Yang Jian were acting in unison, and it looked like they were about to bury the human skin paper ten thousand meters deep in the ground at any moment.

The paper was probably really scared, because crooked writing reappeared on its surface, only this time the writing was black.

"My name is Lu Ming. When you see this sentence, you have already seen this sentence."

"Due to an accident, I was cursed. Six days later, the curse broke out, and I was caught up in a supernatural event... Being caught up in this terrible supernatural event may not be a bad thing for me. I can gain a lot from it, provided that I can survive."

Just like the first time the human skin paper was used, this time, without Lu Ming's reminder, the human skin paper dared not say that Lu Ming was dead.

The answer this time didn't seem much different from the answer the ghost bride received when she held the parchment.

But upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that this time the paper effigy has an added condition—that I can survive.

Surviving the supernatural event of the ghost feast would bring considerable benefits, and Lu Ming had no doubt about that. After all, collecting the puzzle pieces of the Red Fiend and the White Fiend was something that both he and the bride had to do.

But why does the paper effigy emphasize "survival"?
"Don't try to fool me with nonsense. What are the murder patterns of the Ghost Feast? What are the things to be aware of? If you can't answer this question, you might as well go lie down in the ground."

Black writing appeared on the parchment.

"After learning about the ghost's origins, I realized a shocking truth... For a ghost tamer, being caught up in this supernatural event is certain death, even for me now. Fortunately, this ghost's current state is incomplete; only the part that 'eats the feast' is present..."

Lu Ming remained calm and continued to ask, "Explain it more clearly."

"The feast will last for three days, fraught with countless risks. Most ghost tamers probably wouldn't even last the first day. I followed the rules and made it through the three days, thinking I could finally leave this hellish place, but..."

Halfway through his sentence, the paper suddenly stopped, falling into abrupt silence as if it had crashed.

Without wasting any words, Lu Ming directly activated the Ghost Domain to send the human skin paper to be buried 10,000 meters underground.

At this moment, the paper probably sensed the approaching danger, and its will to survive kicked in, as two conspicuous characters appeared on the paper.

Restart!!!

Restart!!!

"It seems there's really no more information to be released. Is the key issue the restart?"

Lu Ming shook his head, but his hands continued moving.

The ghost realm sent the human skin paper underground.

Anyway, with Yang Jian's abilities, he can retrieve the human skin paper at any time.

Burying this monstrous thing underground for a while will serve as punishment for its malice towards Lu Ming.

For the next six days, we can focus on researching the restart.

However, Lu Ming wasn't quite sure whether the so-called "reboot" of the human skin paper referred to the ghost feast restarting, or whether he needed to master the reboot in order to survive.

"In short, let's see if we can try to restart it. Having another capability is never a bad thing."

Top-tier ghost tamers may not necessarily be able to restart, but those who can master restarting are guaranteed to be among the top.

With this in mind, Lu Ming said goodbye to Yang Jian and left.

He was pressed for time, and since the Ghost Feast was indeed so dangerous, he needed to be fully prepared.

As for using the ghost scissors to cut off the curse, Lu Ming had not considered this option.

If it were just a regular paranormal event, Lu Ming would never meddle and try to handle it.

But this paranormal event involves an important piece of the White Ghost puzzle, and the invitation also had some kind of reaction with the marriage certificate written by the ghost bride.

Even knowing the risks involved, Lu Ming couldn't possibly miss such a golden opportunity.

"In any case, if I really master the ability to restart, I'll have the confidence to take a chance even if I encounter unexpected dangers. Besides... I'm not alone."

In just a moment, Lu Ming had made a rough plan in his mind, not only for himself, but also for others.

······
After Lu Ming left, Yang Jian showed a thoughtful expression.

"A paranormal event that even Lu Ming finds troublesome?"

"Hopefully he can handle this smoothly... If even he can't handle it, then it will be a terrible disaster, and considering the potential for the vengeful ghost to grow, it's unimaginable."

Just as Yang Jian was thinking this, he suddenly received a message.

The head of the headquarters, Chen Yi, died unexpectedly in a paranormal event.

It's not uncommon for ghost tamers to die in supernatural events. Even without supernatural events, ordinary ghost tamers can only live for a few months.

The reason why this news would attract Yang Jian's special attention is because he remembered the ghost tamer named Chen Yi who had died.

His codename seems to be Ghost Skin, a very special ghost tamer.

"Perhaps, I will have that day too."

As Yang Jian said this, he picked up the iced cola on the table and took a sip, showing little sign of fear.

···········
"Chen Yi is dead?"

On the other side, Lu Ming also received the message.

He was somewhat surprised by the death of Chen Yi, the Ghost Skin Demon.

Because in the original timeline, Chen Yi, the Ghost Skin, died during the Ghost Painting incident.

However, Lu Ming has already resolved the ghost painting incident ahead of time, but unexpectedly, Chen Yi still died in another supernatural event.

On second thought, this is not surprising.

Ghost controllers like Lu Ming, who are so active in the paranormal community and have lived for so long, are ultimately a minority.

The vast majority of them died for various reasons shortly after becoming ghost tamers.

Because he had more important things to do, Lu Ming didn't pay too much attention to the news for the time being.

After returning to his residential community, Lu Ming tried restarting for the first time.

Unsurprisingly, it ended in failure.

"Trying to restart from the perspective of the Red Fiend and the Red Fiend Puzzle is definitely not going to work, at least for now... Unless I become one with the Ghost Bride, I can only try other paths until then."

The ability to restart is rare not only among ghost tamers, but also among vengeful ghosts; only a very small minority can achieve this.

The most absurd thing is that this problem cannot be solved by hard work and cultivation, unlike in the world of fantasy and martial arts.

If the potential of the ghost that the ghost tamer controls is insufficient, the ability to restart will never be developed.

In the original timeline, Yang Jian also had seven ghost eyes superimposed and opened seven layers of ghost realms to achieve the reboot.

"Even putting aside the ghost bride, from Bai Sha's perspective, the potential of the few vengeful ghosts in my body is not insufficient. The reason they cannot be restarted now is probably just that the right method has not been found."

Lu Ming changed his approach and continued to try.

In a supernatural place that doesn't exist in reality, there is a dry well.

Calling it a dry well isn't entirely accurate, because there's actually a lot of water in it, and a terrible downpour is happening here, filling the air with the stench of rainwater.

As time goes by, the water level in the dry well continues to rise, and it will probably be full soon.

Lu Ming arrived at the well and looked at the water.

His reflection was mirrored on the surface of the well water, but the raindrops falling like beans shattered the mirror, breaking the surface of the water into many small pieces.

"It still doesn't work. The combination of the water ghost, the ghost well, and Sadako only allows me to ignore spatial influences and invade other waters, but restarting requires manipulating the laws of time. This kind of supernatural phenomenon is hard to explain in a few words."

Lu Ming spent almost the entire day making various attempts.

Many ghost tamers fail to adequately develop their own vengeful spirits and supernatural items.

Just like Fang Shiming in the previous WeChat Moments post, he didn't know the correct way to use the ghost scissors.

The same applies to Lu Ming.

Although he was much better than other ghost tamers, it was impossible for him to develop his supernatural abilities to the fullest extent right from the start.

After all, no one is omniscient or omnipotent; everyone needs to learn and improve through trial and error.

Before he knew it, it was already late at night. Lu Ming sighed helplessly and thought to himself, "When there's no progress on a matter, it's better to put it aside and deal with other things. Maybe things will take a turn for the better someday."

······
the next day.

Lu Ming summoned Li Yang early in the morning.

Because Li Yang didn't have a ghost realm, and after dealing with the supernatural events in Taiping Ancient Town, he wasn't in Dachang City when they parted ways, so Lu Ming originally thought it would take him some time to get over.

Less than ten minutes later, Lu Ming heard a knock on the door.

"Captain, I'm here."

???

So fast?
After asking around, Lu Ming learned that Li Yang had come directly from Zhongzhou City to Dachang City after dealing with the paranormal events in Taiping Ancient Town, so that he could be closer to him and have easier contact with him.

Yesterday, he just randomly found a hostel in Dachang City and stayed there for the night.

Lu Ming frowned, looking somewhat displeased: "Why didn't you tell me you were coming to Dachang City? And you're staying in a hostel, are you short on money?"

Li Yang scratched his head, looking embarrassed, and said, "Captain, didn't you say before that gold resources were very important? I used all the salary headquarters gave me to buy gold. I've been in Ghost Painting for more than half a year, but I didn't expect the price of gold outside to rise so fast..."

"Don't worry about the money. I'll talk to headquarters and ask Cao Yanhua to give you a raise. As for the gold, I still have some in my Furen Building. Just let me know if you need more."

Although Lu Ming did not work at headquarters, it would be easy for him to ask Cao Yanhua to give Li Yang a raise, and he certainly wouldn't be refused.

"Thank you Captain."

Li Yang looked very grateful.

"Let's get back to business. Do you know why I called you here today?"

"I don't know."

"Your level is too low. If you deal with paranormal events with me, you will inevitably be a hindrance and won't even be able to save your life, let alone make any contribution."

Li Yang was taken aback. Realizing that Lu Ming was telling the truth, he nodded sincerely and said, "The captain is right. However, I will work hard to improve and catch up with the captain as soon as possible."

Lu Ming raised his hand, interrupting Li Yang: "So the reason I asked you to come here this time is to teach you the correct way to use the vengeful spirit, and also to help you get a supernatural item from headquarters."

Teach him the correct way to use vengeful spirits?

Li Yang was somewhat stunned.

Besides blocking doors, what other proper uses does his vengeful spirit have?

Only then did Li Yang realize that Lu Ming had never asked him what kind of vengeful spirit he was controlling.

Moreover, even if he knew, the probability of Lu Ming knowing the correct way to use a strange, vengeful ghost was not high.

From any perspective, it's impossible for Lu Ming to teach Li Yang the so-called "correct way to use vengeful ghosts".

However, with an almost blind trust in Lu Ming, Li Yang nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Captain."

As Lu Ming said, his main purpose in calling Li Yang here was to train him and accelerate his growth.

Even compared to the captains in the captain's plan, Li Yang's potential is not bad.

However, in the original timeline, Li Yang's potential was not fully realized.

If he could become a top-tier Ghost Master, he certainly wouldn't be carrying an ancestral-level set of mechanisms and yet achieve such a pathetic record.

Moreover, Lu Ming had no worries about Li Yang betraying him, and he didn't even bother using the blood-stained old newspapers.

Needless to say, in Lu Ming's plan to deal with the Ghostly Banquet incident, Li Yang will be a very important backup plan.

Lu Ming cut to the chase: "If you were facing ten Ghost Tamers from the King's Organization at the same time, how would you use your supernatural abilities?"

Li Yang answered without hesitation: "I will block the door and let you kill them all, Captain."

"..."

Lu Ming coughed twice: "What you did isn't a big problem, but if you're alone, the best thing to do is block the door from the outside and then leave quickly during the time difference."

"Of course, this is just the simplest way to use the vengeful spirit inside you. I will now teach you some other ways to use it."

Clearly, what Lu Ming said next was the key point.

What is your definition of a door?

After thinking for a moment, Li Yang pointed to the wooden door not far away.

Then, Lu Ming pulled out a piece of white paper from somewhere, drew a door on it, pointed to the door, and asked, "Do you think this is a door?"

Li Yang's expression changed.

At this point, things are quite clear. Even without Lu Ming saying it, we can figure out what to do next: if a door in reality can be blocked, then can a door drawn in the drawing also be blocked?

He previously thought his door-blocking ghost was rather useless, only able to play its greatest role under special circumstances.

However, after Lu Ming's reminder, the definition of "door" was broadened, and Li Yang's thinking was also opened up.

He thought to himself, "So that's how it is. I never thought the vengeful spirit inside me could be used in this way... Captain Lu was able to think of this, but I couldn't. I'm afraid that's why he's the top ghost tamer in the current paranormal circle."

However, Lu Ming's teaching was not over yet.

"A demon tamer who has only controlled one demon usually doesn't live long, but controlling a second vengeful demon is a huge adventure for most demon tamers... But you are different from them."

Lu Ming pointed at Li Yang, then at the door drawn on the paper.

"This door can not only be drawn on paper, but also on your body. Just think, what can a door drawn on your body block?"

After thinking for a moment, disbelief gradually appeared in Li Yang's eyes.

"Could it possibly block... the ghost?"

Lu Ming nodded: "That's right. The door drawn on your body can block the evil spirits. Using this method to regulate the balance of the supernatural within your body will give you a higher success rate in controlling evil spirits compared to other ghost controllers."

"..."

Li Yang remained silent for a moment, seemingly unsure of what to say.

He had previously thought that even Lu Ming, knowing what kind of vengeful spirit he was controlling was already quite remarkable.

But now, Lu Mingzhen has taught him the true use of the vengeful spirit within him, and has even pointed out a path for his future development.

Li Yang felt that within the entire paranormal community, apart from Lu Ming, no one else would have thought of such a pointed idea and be willing to tell him without reservation.

"Captain Lu, I will study this carefully over the next few days and will not let you down."

"Don't rush. Come with me to headquarters. I'll get something from Cao Yanhua for you."

···········
Greater J City.

The Asia branch of the Ghost Riders headquarters.

Lu Ming led Li Yang directly into Cao Yanhua's office.

If it were any other Ghost Tamer, even one of the team leaders at headquarters, they wouldn't just barge into a minister's office. But Cao Yanhua had no objection to Lu Ming doing this, nor did he dare to.

Many paranormal incidents that can't be handled now rely on Lu Ming's intervention.

Cao Yanhua put down his work and stood up from his chair very politely.

"Lu Ming, Li Yang, what brings you here?"

Because Li Yang was also present, Cao Yanhua did not address Lu Ming as "President Lu," otherwise it would have seemed somewhat strange.

"I need to retrieve a supernatural item from headquarters." "Okay, I'll take you there to retrieve it right away."

Li Yang, who was listening to the conversation between the two, was somewhat stunned.

He hadn't expected Cao Yanhua to be so easy to talk to.

Supernatural items that can be specially sealed away by headquarters are not simple things.

Its rarity surpasses that of ghost candles and substitute dolls.

Even though the headquarters has undergone a series of reforms and the ghost controllers who handle paranormal events are now able to be allocated ghost candles and substitute dolls, it is still very difficult to access those sealed paranormal items.

This is not because the headquarters is stingy.

Rather, it's because the sealed-up supernatural items all carry a certain degree of danger.

If not handled properly, not only will the original paranormal event remain unresolved, but it may even cause the impact to expand further and generate new paranormal events.

However, since it was Lu Ming who was going to use it, Cao Yanhua was naturally at ease.

···········
At this moment.

A special place deep underground within the headquarters.

This is where the headquarters stores some paranormal items.

This wasn't Lu Ming's first time here.

After arriving at the headquarters' basement, Lu Ming said directly, "Help me find a supernatural item codenamed 'Ghost Gate'."

Cao Yanhua was puzzled, wondering why Lu Ming knew so much about these supernatural items at headquarters.

However, the thought was quickly dismissed by something.

"Forget it, why think so much? As long as we can handle the paranormal events, that's all that matters. Right now, there's no ghost controller at headquarters stronger than Lu Ming."

Soon, Cao Yanhua found the corresponding room and took out a box made of gold.

This place contains a supernatural item codenamed "Ghost Gate".

Regarding this gate to the underworld, the records state that it is extremely dangerous.

However, the more dangerous something is, the greater its value often is; it all depends on how it is used.

"Minister Cao, please open the box."

Releasing the already imprisoned supernatural objects at will carries great risks, but Lu Ming is confident in controlling the situation, so he is not too concerned.

Click!

The basement lights flickered the moment the gold container was opened.

There was an old wooden door, its surface tightly bound with chains, as if it were completely trapped.

However, the wooden door did not fall silent; instead, it trembled slightly from time to time, as if there were many strange things behind it trying to open the door and crawl out.

Upon closer inspection, one will find that this ghost door is not much different from an ordinary door. The strangest thing is that there is no doorknob on the cracked wooden board on the surface of the ghost door.

This is the Gate of Hell.

Although it was the first time Lu Ming had seen this thing, he knew how to use this supernatural item.

Beyond the Ghost Gate, there seems to be a connection to some supernatural place, somewhat similar to the ghost mirror installed in the old house behind the Guanjiang residential area.

Li Yang stared at the gate to the underworld in surprise and asked, "Captain, is this for me?"

Lu Ming shook his head and denied it: "This Ghost Gate is located at headquarters, and we can assign a Ghost Master to guard it... What I want to give you is another supernatural item."

After saying that, he looked at Cao Yanhua and said, "If I'm not mistaken, there should also be a doorknob to match this ghost gate, right?"

"There is indeed a matching door handle. Do we need to remove it as well?"

Lu Ming nodded: "After taking out the doorknob, hand it over to Li Yang for safekeeping. This is a backup plan I prepared for this operation. At the agreed time, we can open the door with the doorknob and directly connect to the ghost door placed in the headquarters."

Being willing to take risks and actively participate in paranormal events does not mean that Lu Ming is reckless.

Since the paper on human skin had specifically mentioned that this ghost feast would be very dangerous, he naturally had to make corresponding preparations.

The reason Li Yang was given the doorknob was not only because the vengeful spirit he controlled was most compatible with this supernatural object, but also because, given Li Yang's personality, he would rarely fail to deliver in crucial moments.

Soon, the doorknob was also retrieved.

It's a wooden doorknob, and it doesn't look as eerie as a ghost door. It's covered in mottled red paint, so it's probably been used for a long time.

Li Yang and Cao Yanhua were both somewhat moved, never expecting that Lu Ming would even think of this step.

Making these arrangements may not increase the success rate of the operation, but it can reduce the cost of failure.

This is a fallback plan after failure.

Afterwards, Lu Ming did not leave the basement of the headquarters immediately, but instead took another walk around the basement with Cao Yanhua.

He is still searching for a way to reboot himself.

He might find some supernatural items that he could use here.

Rather than unleashing his full potential at crucial moments, Lu Ming prefers to plan ahead and make thorough preparations, as this gives him a greater sense of security.

After going around in circles, apart from the ghost knocking on the door that he had seen before, which caught Lu Ming's attention, the other supernatural items were not very useful to him.

Just as Lu Ming was about to leave, he suddenly saw a wall that he had never noticed before.

This wall looks the same as the surrounding walls, nothing special, but some gray photos are posted on it, giving off an eerie atmosphere.

"Where were the photos on the wall taken?"

Lu Ming was very concerned because he saw a very familiar object among these photos.

A roll of black film.

This black film roll is very similar to the film roll used by that paranormal projector in the island nation.

Or rather, they are essentially the same kind.

"The paranormal items in these photos were all previously recorded by headquarters, but were lost for various reasons."

Lu Ming nodded thoughtfully.

It turned out to be the case.

So it seems that the paranormal projector from the Japanese exorcism society might have been lost from its headquarters.

If that's the case, then headquarters must have corresponding records of these paranormal items.

With that in mind, Lu Ming consulted the files related to black film.

The result showed that there was only one simple description above.

"The paranormal film, its specific purpose is unknown, can present a series of frozen images through a medium."

Lu Ming stared at this simple description for a long time.

It allows us to freeze each frame of an image using a medium...
Lu Ming suddenly had a bold idea.

This idea did not come about by chance.

Before he came to the Main God Space, he was still a naive high school student. Every time he took an exam, his Chinese teacher would emphasize that he should read the essay first after receiving the test paper.

Even if you only read it once, your brain will subconsciously think about the question for a long time afterward.

The situation is the same now.

In the past few days, Lu Ming has been thinking about how to achieve a restart almost every moment.

Unlike Yang Jian, he couldn't forcibly increase the level of the Ghost Domain and achieve a single-unit restart after reaching the seventh level.

But now, taking advantage of this opportunity at headquarters, Lu Ming has come up with a way to achieve an alternative restart.

···········
Inside the basement of the headquarters.

Li Yang and Cao Yanhua simultaneously felt a chill run down their spines.

They had no idea what was happening.

After reviewing the paranormal files, Lu Ming disappeared from the spot.

"Captain, what is this...?"

Cao Yanhua shook his head: "Don't worry about it, he must have suddenly thought of something very important."

···········
the other side.

With a splashing sound, Lu Ming reappeared in his home. Surprisingly, he emerged from the foul-smelling puddles without a single drop of water on his body.

He was almost certain that the paranormal film recorded in the headquarters files was the same type of film as the paranormal projector.

After he broke the paranormal projector, the president of the Japanese exorcism society, Mishima, did him a favor and gave the broken projector to Lu Ming.

At first, I didn't know what it was for, but now it seems that even if the projector breaks down, the film inside can still be used.

In a split second, Lu Ming broke the boundary between reality and the supernatural, and once again entered that supernatural place with a ghost well and a torrential downpour.

He arrived at the Ghost Well and looked at the rainwater in the well again.

"The paranormal film needs a certain medium to display the image, and this pool of water tainted with the supernatural can serve as that medium..."

"And ultimately, all I need is to freeze certain moments from the past on the film... just to achieve a self-reboot, not a large-scale reboot. It's not impossible to do that."

What convinced Lu Ming even more of this was the purpose of the previous paranormal projector.

With this strange roll of film, the projector could predict not only the past, but even the future.

This is a supernatural phenomenon involving the rules of time; it's definitely not simple.

"No matter how much you talk about it, it still has to be tested in practice. If it doesn't work, then no matter how perfect the theory is, it's all for nothing."

Thinking of this, Lu Ming took out an old projector.

The paint on the projector's surface had peeled off considerably, making it look like an old object that had been abandoned in a warehouse for a long time and had not been used. Judging from its age, it was at least seventy or eighty years old.

No matter how you look at it, this projector is no longer usable.

that's the truth.

Ever since Lu Ming used this supernatural projector to predict his future, the projector has fallen into a state of silence, similar to a system crash.

Now, if you try to crank the handle again, you'll find that it doesn't even turn once before it gets completely stuck.

However, Lu Ming's focus this time was not on the projector itself, but on the black film reel inside.

He took out the film and sensed the fluctuations of an eerie aura.

"As expected, ghosts cannot be killed. Even if they briefly crashed, they will eventually return to normal as time goes by."

Boom!
Lu Ming threw the eerie roll of film into the Ghost Well, and it never floated back up.

The trip to Taiping Ancient Town a few days ago confirmed Lu Ming's previous guess: the water ghost in Linshan and the never-ending torrential rain are both related to the Ghost Lake.

At this moment, the water in the Ghost Well is a mixture of the two, and naturally it also possesses the characteristics of the Ghost Lake to some extent.

pressing.

Whether in terms of size or the intensity of the supernatural effects, this roll of supernatural film is no match for the well water.

If thrown into water, it should immediately crash.

However, the expected situation did not occur.

The film rolls, which had been coiled up, were now completely scattered.

The film and the well water did not engage in a supernatural confrontation, but rather formed a state that was difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Under Lu Ming's control, the accumulated water became the medium for the film, and the water surface reflected a certain image like a mirror.

However, because the film itself contains no content, the resulting image is a blurry mess, and nothing can be seen clearly.

Lu Ming stood by the well, letting his reflection appear on the water.

This operation can be compared to leaving a save file in front of a ghost mirror.

Snap! Snap! Snap!

The torrential rain continued to pelt the surface of the well water, quickly obscuring Lu Ming's reflection.

The attempt appears to have failed.

This is not the case.

Lu Ming's images were originally produced using film and well water as a medium.

The well water covering the top layer will not suppress Lu Ming's image; instead, it will freeze that past frame of the image, just like the plastic film pressed on the surface of an old photograph.

"Looks like I'm in pretty good luck..."

Without hesitation, Lu Ming used his supernatural powers to remove one of his arms.

No blood flowed from the area affected by the supernatural, as if it had undergone a perfect cut, something that even the most advanced medical techniques could not achieve.

For Lu Ming, losing an arm was nothing; he could easily repair it by using the Deceitful Ghost's supernatural abilities, since the arm he had severed did not involve any supernatural elements.

However, Lu Ming did not immediately use the Deceitful Ghost's supernatural powers to repair the arm.

He used the water ghost's ghost domain.

With a splashing sound, Lu Ming stepped into the water.

He vanished from the spot without leaving a trace, as if he had simply disappeared from the world.

The sky here became even more gloomy.

After a while.

Wow!
In the stench-filled Ghost Well, the scene that had disappeared after being submerged by the upper water surface reappeared on the water's surface.

The image shows Lu Ming not long ago.

His expression was cold and his face was stiff, showing no emotional fluctuation whatsoever.

A strange scene happened.

Even the torrential rain couldn't affect this frozen moment, but Lu Ming in the scene suddenly had a strange smile on his face.

From head to toe, Lu Ming in this scene seemed to have truly come to life, crawling out of the well water.

This Lu Ming is no longer in a one-armed state as before, but is completely intact, restored to the state he was in at the moment the image was captured.

"The lost arm was restored by supernatural means."

"That's not quite accurate. A more accurate way to put it is that the supernatural influenced my own time, allowing me to achieve a kind of alternative restart."

After many days of trying, Lu Ming finally found a way to restart.

However, this restart comes at a cost.

A small section of the black film that was thrown into the ghost well disappeared. This small section of film lost its supernatural quality and became an ordinary film, which then aged rapidly and dissipated into the eerie well water.

In other words, once the entire roll of film is used up, this restart method will become ineffective unless Lu Ming can find another roll of film that is exactly the same.

"The amount of film consumed per restart should be related to the time span of the restart; the longer the time span, the more film is consumed."

"Moreover, this kind of supernatural phenomenon cannot interfere with the outside world; it can only affect itself. To achieve a large-scale restart without the necessary conditions, we probably have to wait until after the wedding."

Although there are certain limitations, Lu Ming is already very satisfied.

He has already mastered the Ghost Well and the water inside it, meaning that Lu Ming can keep the water recording images continuously.

As long as there is enough film, Lu Ming can return to any point in time.

This is undoubtedly a rather unsolvable ability.

"It involves restarting, which is beyond the reach of ordinary ghost tamers. In fact, most ghost tamers have never even heard of such a supernatural phenomenon."

Think about it, Xiao Yang also relied on the Ghost Eye, Ghost Shadow, Ghost Hand, and Music Box to risk opening the seventh level of the Ghost Realm and achieve a single-person restart.

Moreover, his reboot only allows him to return to a short period of time ago.

Those who can truly restart to forty minutes ago are either starving ghosts or S-class vengeful ghosts of the wishing ghost level.

The reason why it was so difficult to handle the S-level ghost messenger incident at the training base was because of the ghost messenger's incredible ability to infinitely restart.

After figuring these things out, Lu Ming's worries about the ghost feast incident lessened considerably.

This unsolvable restart feature, which he uses without any effect on himself, has broken conventional understanding of the supernatural and is an alternative form of restart.

In this respect, it can be said that Lu Ming is comparable to a resurrected S-class ghost.
