We were supposed to be doing horror movie guides, but what the heck is this "mysterious resurre

Chapter 44 Sadako (Please continue reading)

As Lu Ming expected, the image on the television screen changed to a dry well. The well looked very old and had obviously been abandoned.

Then, a white-clad female ghost with long, flowing hair grabbed the edge of the well and climbed out. The television screen flickered more intensely, and Sadako continued to walk towards Lu Ming, seemingly about to climb out of the screen at any moment.

"What's going on? I clearly only watched the cursed videotape, and it's not even the seventh day since the curse started. How come Sadako has already begun to launch supernatural attacks on me?"

"This ghost's existence is extremely terrifying. Even her killing is a regulated method, but her behavior is very free and she doesn't have to completely follow the rules... If you look at her with ordinary eyes, you will definitely die a terrible death."

Realizing that Sadako and Chu Renmei were not even in the same league as each other, Lu Ming's heart sank. He unplugged the old-fashioned television, but this had no effect; the eerie images continued to play.

The so-called television screen is merely a medium for spreading the supernatural.

Even without a television screen, a piece of glass, a mirror, or even just an internet cable, Sadako can take the life of the cursed.

Having figured this out, Lu Ming did not sit and wait for his death. Instead, with a thought, as the ashes fell, the mummified bride appeared in reality.

The eerie atmosphere of the ghost realm seemed to seep back into the television screen.

Lu Ming's guess was correct. If Sadako could use a television screen as a medium, there was no reason why the supernatural phenomenon of the mummy bride couldn't be the same.

The next moment, Lu Ming arrived at the dry well that appeared on the screen. Sadako stood in front of Lu Ming, motionless for a moment, seemingly not expecting that Lu Ming would be able to invade her on his own initiative.

This is not the real world, but a place that is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

At this moment, Lu Ming's school uniform with a stand-up collar was gone, leaving only a white mourning dress stained with dirt.

At this critical moment in the supernatural confrontation, any hesitation would be fatal, so Lu Ming immediately launched a supernatural attack, his lips twitching slightly upwards, and he gave a stiff, strange laugh.

The laughter was hoarse and shrill, sending a chill down one's spine.

Faced with this supernatural attack that was powerful enough to directly corrupt even ordinary ghosts, Sadako made no attempt to dodge. Instead, she stared intently at Lu Ming with her eyes, distorted by resentment and venom, hidden beneath her long black hair.

She was trying to control Lu Ming's behavior with her telekinesis. This was a mental attack, and it was extremely powerful. Even for those with relatively strong mental abilities, it could directly take over their bodies and control their consciousness.

However, Sadako's psychic powers had no effect on Lu Ming.

Lu Ming stood in front of Sadako, holding the hand of the mummified bride, but the area around them seemed to be blocked by something, like "a reality that can never be reached".

Despite the loss of her psychic powers, Sadako, dressed in white, did not stop attacking Lu Ming. Lu Ming's abnormality only intensified her resentment.

Her figure blurred, and the next moment, she actually entered Lu Ming's ghost realm.

Sadako's inability to influence Lu Ming with her telekinesis does not mean that she cannot invade Lu Ming's ghost realm.

This is a supernatural confrontation.

To put it another way, it's about whose rules have higher priority.

If neither side is particularly strong, the competition might be about mechanics. But once a certain level is reached, everyone becomes a mechanic-driven monster, so it comes down to who is stronger. The mummy bride's puzzle with Lu Ming is incomplete, so the Ghost Domain she can use isn't very strong, at least not enough to stop Sadako's invasion.

In Lu Ming's view, Sadako's movements were almost unpredictable. One moment she was in front of him, and the next she was behind him. This was not just a matter of speed, but true teleportation.

As the space in front of her flickered, Sadako pressed her entire body tightly against Lu Ming's back, placing her hands on Lu Ming's face, her nails growing wildly and digging into his flesh.

His skin and flesh, which were no different from those of a normal person, were torn apart, revealing rotting, stinking flesh and blood like that of a corpse. This was the true state that Lu Ming revealed without the use of supernatural powers to maintain his condition.

Rather than saying Lu Ming was a living person who controlled a vengeful ghost, it would be more accurate to say that he was a corpse that had been dead for a long time.

Just as Sadako was clinging tightly to Lu Ming, her long, sharp fingernails about to pierce through his entire head, a cold wind blew the veil off the head of the mummified bride, revealing a sorrowful ghost face.

Cold tear stains were spread across the face of the mummified bride, who then let out a mournful cry. This cry was also a kind of terrifying eeriness, overlapping with Lu Ming's laughter, echoing and intensifying with each passing moment.

Affected by the crying and laughter, Sadako, who had placed her hand on Lu Ming's face, visibly paused, and was briefly suppressed.

This was not the end. Immediately, Lu Ming slowly raised his left hand, which was clasped together with the mummified bride's, and stiffly waved it in the air.

As the ashes of the paper paper fell in profusion, it was as if a grand funeral was being held beside the dry well. The supernatural forces that summoned ghosts were activated, and Sadako, who was already suppressed by the sounds of crying and laughing, was subjected to a new supernatural attack. She had no room to resist anymore and was completely restrained.

······
The place where Lu Ming is now is an incomprehensible supernatural place. After Sadako is restrained, everything around him naturally collapses.

When Lu Ming came to his senses again, the battle against the supernatural was over. He returned to his apartment where he lived alone. The television, which had been unplugged, had turned into a large gray screen, as if symbolizing the end of this supernatural attack.

"finished?"

Lu Ming frowned, feeling that something was amiss.

Logically, confining the vengeful spirit Sadako would be equivalent to stopping the spread of the curse at its source, but he always felt that there was still something wrong.

No, it's not that there's anything wrong with it, but rather that there are too many things wrong with it.

From the very beginning, when Sadako launched her supernatural attack, Lu Ming sensed something was amiss.

When his girlfriend Tomoko and the high school couple died, Lu Ming was not harmed. Instead, when he watched the videotape again, Sadako launched a direct attack.

Lu Ming couldn't quite figure it out for a moment, so he could only make inferences based on his existing experience.

Back in the Mountain Village Corpse instance, the source of the curse, the spring water, was contaminated by the remains of Chu Renmei.

Although Sadako was far more dangerous than Chu Renmei, the two had one thing in common: they both harbored immense resentment.

Lu Ming had a rough idea in his mind.

Therefore... to solve the root cause of the curse's spread, it is necessary to dispose of Sadako's remains in the well.
