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

Greater J City.

A deserted street.

It was already very late at night, and the place was quite remote. Even in the bustling city of J, there were still no pedestrians to be seen.

This was a place that Lu Ming specifically chose.

He was going to meet Yang Jian here.

Lu Ming first coordinated with the personnel in charge of the handover at headquarters and took away the substitute doll and ghost candle that he had agreed upon with Cao Yanhua.

Lu Ming has not yet retrieved the ghost coffin, the deceitful ghost, or the special supernatural items sealed by headquarters.

The reason for taking the ghost candle and the substitute doll in advance is to use them when tackling the other horror movie dungeons later.

Ghost Candle is specifically designed for vengeful spirits undergoing mysterious resurgence; it may not be effective against vengeful spirits from other worldviews.

But surrogate dolls are different.

No matter what world you're in, you can use a surrogate doll to save your life in a life-or-death situation.

After doing all this, Lu Ming called Yang Jian and arranged to meet him here.

The two didn't say much during the call because communicating via satellite phone isn't very secure and there's a possibility of being eavesdropped on.

For these ghost tamers, the best way to communicate is face-to-face, using the ghost domain to isolate themselves from the outside world, and then communicating.

Yang Jian's condition was relatively stable, so like Lu Ming, he also chose to travel using the Ghost Domain.

As a streak of red light flashed across the horizon, it gradually became clearer in sight from its slender shape.

A young man who looked like a high school student with a cold expression appeared in front of Lu Ming.

The skin on his forehead was stretched open, and a scarlet, pupil-less ghost eye darted restlessly, surveying its surroundings, seemingly wary and apprehensive of the supernatural presence emanating from Lu Ming.

Although Yang Jian still trusted Lu Ming to some extent, this was an instinctive reaction from the vengeful ghost within him, which he could not completely control.

This fear and vigilance suggests that Lu Ming is a rather dangerous ghost tamer who may pose a threat to Yang Jian.

"Yang Jian, we meet again."

Lu Ming smiled, but due to the supernatural influence, the smile appeared very stiff, making others feel scared rather than friendly.

Fortunately, Yang Jian was already used to the way ghost tamers interacted, so he greeted Lu Ming without any surprise.

He looked at Lu Ming, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

Yang Jian was sent out of the headquarters by Lu Ming at the beginning and was in a AFK state for the whole time, so he was happy not to have to take action.

After making some inquiries, Yang Jian got a general idea of ​​what had happened at headquarters afterward. A total of six Ghost Masters died, including Shen Liang.

It can be said that Lu Ming's intrusion caused huge losses to the headquarters.

However, Cao Yanhua did not mention a single bad word about Lu Ming at the subsequent reflection meeting. Instead, he laid off a large number of employees and made preliminary modifications and reorganizations to the internal rules and regulations of the headquarters.

If anyone else had done this, they would have been on the headquarters' wanted list and hunted down by most of the paranormal community.

But Lu Ming did not receive such treatment.

If the news gets out, it will likely cause quite a stir in the overseas paranormal community.

Cao Yanhua is a smart man. After dealing with Lu Ming several times, he seems to have completely realized that the headquarters is currently unable to compete with Lu Ming.

Moreover, Lu Ming is alone and has no worries, unlike headquarters, where there are undoubtedly many more things to consider.

"The only way to deal with Lu Ming is to win him over; simply suppressing him is useless against such a unique and top-tier ghost tamer..."

"After this incident, the reputation of the ghost groom is probably going to be firmly established."

Yang Jian temporarily suppressed the various thoughts in his mind and asked, "Lu Ming, what did you come to see me about this time? Regarding the matter in the conference room during the day, including the reimbursed expenses, headquarters gave me two red ghost candles and four white ghost candles. If you need them, I can give you half."

Yang Jian's idea was very simple.

He was able to do nothing, yet benefit from the headquarters and even see that old fox Cao Yanhua suffer a setback, largely because of Lu Ming.

It's reasonable to divide the obtained ghost candle in half.

Of course, Yang Jian wasn't some brainless "good Samaritan."

He was willing to share the benefits he had gained, but only on the premise that the counterparty was Lu Ming.

From a perspective of interests, standing on the same side as Lu Ming is entirely advantageous.

If it were anyone else, Yang Jian would probably just pretend to be stupid.

Want to share the Ghost Candle?

Who are you?

Indeed, I am not familiar with it.

To Yang Jian's utter surprise, Lu Ming shook his head and rejected his offer when faced with the temptation of such a strategically scarce resource as Ghost Candle.

Under the streetlights, Lu Ming stared directly at Yang Jian, his expression numb, and stiffly said, "Yang Jian, I need to borrow that 'it' from you."
