Horror Resurrection: I Evolve Starting with the Ghost Buddha

Chapter 40 Dream, Death Rehearsed in Advance

Soon, dozens of armored vehicles painted with black giant snake totems quickly surrounded the entire "Paradise on Earth".

The car door opened, and a group of guards holding steel guns and wearing special uniforms stepped out.

The leader was a middle-aged man in his early forties.

He had a cheap cigarette dangling from his mouth, and his narrow eyes gleamed with shrewdness and ruthlessness.

The middle-aged man's name was Zhang Yang, and he was one of the captains of the Black Serpent Society.

"Captain, there seems to be no movement inside."

Seeing Zhang Yang smoking, one of his subordinates cautiously reported to his superior.

"No movement?"

Zhang Yang exhaled a smoke ring, his brows furrowing slightly.

"I heard quite a lot of noise on the phone just now..."

"Are all the people inside dead?"

"hehe!!"

"It seems this 'Paradise on Earth' has bad feng shui; the evil spirits it's attracted are no ordinary beings!!"

Zhang Yang spoke in a lazy tone, and his whole demeanor seemed nonchalant.

However, he was very solemn inside!

Because the moment he approached the "paradise on earth," he instinctively sensed something was wrong.

"You lot, take the golden body bags and go in to take a look."

"Remember, don't touch anything, and signal immediately if anything happens."

Zhang Yang did not rush into "Paradise on Earth," but instead ordered his men to scout ahead in a semi-coercive tone.

"yes!"

Although his subordinates were unwilling, they dared not disobey Zhang Yang's orders and could only walk cautiously into the gate of "Paradise on Earth".

Just moments after his subordinates entered "Paradise on Earth," a startled voice suddenly came through the walkie-talkie in Zhang Yang's hand.

"Captain... Captain! Please come in and see!!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yang frowned, stubbed out his cigarette, and strode inside.

He could tell that his subordinates were unharmed, which meant that the "Paradise on Earth" was basically safe.

After entering the first level of the Pure Land.

Zhang Yang looked around and found the entire hall in a mess.

Various tables, chairs, and benches were broken and scattered all over the floor, and the walls were covered with knife marks and bloodstains.

And in the center of the hall.

Two gruesome corpses stood out conspicuously.

"These are... Old Black and Old White?"

Zhang Yang's pupils contracted.

He knew these two people; they were both C-level demon tamers of the Black Serpent Society, and he usually had a fairly good relationship with them.

The anomalies within both of them are not weak. If the two of them join forces, they will be able to handle even ordinary B-level anomalies!

But to his utter surprise, the two of them died here.

And judging from the looks of it, it seems like they're killing each other?

Zhang Yang squatted down and carefully examined the wounds on the two men.

Whether it's the slash marks from the bone knife or the piercing wounds from the ghost hairpin... they were indeed caused by the two attacking each other.

"Were you affected by these bizarre rules?"

As Zhang Yang pondered, he reached out and gently closed both of their eyelids.

Then, he turned his gaze to the ordinary people huddled in the corners around him, trembling with fear.

"This strange creature doesn't seem to have attacked any ordinary people."

"Its target seems to be only the demon tamers."

"And it seems the strangeness within them has been removed..."

Upon reaching this conclusion, Zhang Yang suddenly felt his heart tighten!

An inexplicable sense of unease began to envelop him!

Realizing something was wrong, he didn't dwell on it any longer. Instead, he immediately stood up and decisively gave orders to his subordinates:

"Seal off the scene!"

"Dispose of the body, take all witnesses back... and isolate them for investigation."

"Captain, aren't we going to investigate the strange things behind this?" one of his subordinates asked.

"Chase my ass!"

Zhang Yang muttered a curse under his breath.

"To kill two C-level monster tamers silently, the opponent must be at least a top-tier B-level monster, or even... an A-level monster!"

"Is this level of trouble something we can afford to get involved in?"

"Write a report saying... the strange creature has escaped, possibly leaving the [Black Serpent Society] base city, and its whereabouts are unknown."

"yes!"

Zhang Yang's subordinates also knew his personality.

After Zhang Yang gave the order, they dared not ask any more questions.

Zhang Yang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and turned to leave.

Since arriving here, he has found that the feeling of being watched has become increasingly intense, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"This place is not safe to stay for long."

Zhang Yang quickened his pace to leave, but he was unaware of it.

It was in the shadows not far behind him.

The figure of a hunched old man was quietly watching him.

A hint of mockery still flickered in those cloudy eyes.

"Trying to leave?"

"The horror has only just begun..."

Lin Chuan controlled the coughing monster and did not stop Zhang Yang from leaving.

Instead, an extremely subtle rule mark was left on Zhang Yang and his several subordinates who controlled the demons.

……

Several hours later.

Night falls.

Zhang Yang returned to his villa in the wealthy neighborhood.

He took a hot shower, trying to wash away the gloom and unease he had picked up during the day.

But during the shower, he vaguely sensed that the feeling of being watched... seemed to have intensified!

"Damn it, this is really cursed."

He came out wrapped in a bath towel, cursing and swearing, poured himself a large glass of strong liquor, and drank it all in one gulp.

The numbing effect of alcohol made him relax a little.

soon.

Sleepiness crept in.

Logically speaking, after becoming a Ghost Tamer, the sleep of the living should gradually shorten, or even disappear completely...

But Zhang Yang is now inexplicably feeling sleepy and tired.

He fell into a deep sleep just two or three minutes later.

And he quickly entered a dream.

In my dream.

He saw a hazy, gray mist.

He also found himself standing in a square.

The square was quiet; there wasn't a soul in sight.

Is anyone there?

For some reason, he suddenly couldn't help but shout.

His voice echoed incessantly in the empty square, sounding particularly eerie.

Sudden.

A gust of cold wind blew by.

The fog has lifted somewhat.

He saw a tall flagpole standing not far ahead.

A person is hanging from the flagpole.

The man was wearing a Class C Ghost Rider uniform, his tongue was sticking out long, and his eyes were almost bulging out.

That was... his subordinate, Wu Ming!

Wu Ming was one of his key subordinates. He was a cruel and perverted man whose two favorite things to do were torturing young girls and stealing other men's wives.

But now, Wu Ming, a C-level weirdo, hung there like a dead dog, his body swaying gently in the eerie wind.

"Wu Ming?!"

Zhang Yang was shocked and wanted to run over to save the person.

But he hadn't taken a step yet.

Pfft!

I heard a heavy thud behind me.

He turned around abruptly.

Then they saw another henchman fall from the high building and smash into a pile of flesh.

Followed by.

Pfft!Pfft!

More and more of his subordinates fell from the sky, either torn apart by an unknown force or burned to ashes by eerie flames.

Every death was incredibly tragic and bizarre.

"This...this..."

Zhang Yang retreated in fear.

He tried to escape, but found that no matter how fast he ran, he was just going around in circles.

At last.

He found himself trapped in a circle of corpses.

His dead teammates raised their heads one by one, staring at him with their lifeless gray eyes.

"Captain...save me..."

"Captain...why did you abandon us...?"

"Captain...come down and join us..."

Countless pale arms reached out to him, dragging him into an endless abyss of darkness.

"ah!!!"

Zhang Yang suddenly sat up in bed, his whole body drenched in cold sweat.

"Huff... huff..."

He was breathing heavily, his heart pounding wildly.

"It's a dream...it's a dream..."

With trembling hands, he lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and tried to calm himself.

"Have you been too tired lately...?"

He tried to comfort himself.

Although the dream was terrifyingly real, as a B-level Ghost Master, he didn't take it too seriously.

But just then...

Ring ring!

The satellite phone on the bedside table suddenly rang.

In the quiet of the night, it sounded particularly jarring.

Zhang Yang was startled, and the cigarette butt in his hand fell onto the blanket, burning a black hole in it.

He swallowed hard and answered the phone.

"Feed?"

"Captain... Captain! Something's happened!!"

On the other end of the phone, a terrified voice came from one of his subordinates.

"Wu Ming... Wu Ming is dead!!"

"What?!"

Zhang Yang almost dropped the phone as the scene from his dream flashed into his mind.

"How did he die?!"

"Hanging...hanged to death on a flagpole..."

"And... the strangeness within him... is gone..."

boom!!

Zhang Yang felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

Hanging...

This is exactly the same as in my dream!!

An unprecedented chill shot from the soles of my feet straight to the top of my head.

"A precognitive dream? Or... a curse?!"

He dared not stay at home anymore.

He quickly dressed, scrambled out of the villa, and headed straight for the Black Snake Society headquarters.

……

After half an hour.

In the top-floor conference room.

Zhang Yang, pale-faced and incoherent, reported the situation to the man sitting at the head of the table.

The man was about fifty years old, dressed in a Tang suit, and holding two walnuts in his hands.

Although he looked somewhat wealthy, his eyes were as cold and sinister as a venomous snake.

The man's name is Liu Tiesheng. He is one of the vice presidents of the Black Serpent Society and also an A-level Ghost Tamer!

"You mean... you had a dream that all your men died, and then when you woke up, one of them was actually dead?"

After listening to Zhang Yang's report, Liu Tiesheng stopped what he was doing and asked calmly.

"Yes...yes! Vice President!"

Zhang Yang said in a trembling voice:

"And...and in the dream, I died in the end too..."

"I suspect... some terrifying, eerie force is watching us!"

"Haha! Old Zhang, you're such a coward!"

A captain of the Demon Tamers with a buzz cut next to him couldn't help but laugh:

"It's just a coincidence, and it scared you this much?"

"Exactly. Wu Ming is a troublemaker. He offends a lot of people, so it wouldn't be surprising if he got killed."

Another female captain echoed this.

"No! It's not a coincidence!!"

Zhang Yang panicked and loudly defended himself:

"That feeling...it was so real! It was definitely not an ordinary dream!!"

"alright."

Liu Tiesheng raised his hand, interrupting the argument.

He stared at Zhang Yang with his cold eyes for a while, then slowly said:

"It's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't."

"Things have been a bit turbulent lately."

He pondered for a moment and then made a decision.

"How about this?"

"Zhang Yang, and that subordinate who died tragically in your dream."

"From now on, everyone will move to the headquarters plaza."

"Just stay under the adult sculpture."

"With the protection of adults, even an A-level anomaly can't touch you."

Hearing this, Zhang Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The "Black Serpent Taboo" sculpture in the headquarters plaza is a medium for taboos!

Faced with such a great taboo, he refused to believe that anything could happen to him.

"Vice President, I'll go to the statue of the sir right away."

Zhang Yang quickly spoke up. He felt very insecure, fearing that he might die a miserable death like in his dream.

Liu Tiesheng watched his departing figure, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"check."

He said to the crew-cut captain next to him.

"Investigate the cause of Wu Ming's death."

"Furthermore, everything that happened in 'Paradise on Earth' must also be thoroughly investigated again!!"

"I want to see what kind of thing dares to play tricks on our [Black Serpent Society]'s territory."

Liu Tiesheng's voice was chilling, echoing in the empty conference room.
