A bizarre resurrection: I, Yang Jian, am bound by a contract with the school beauty!

"Fu Lai Inn?"

"The ghost post office actually arranged accommodation for us?"

"This is unbelievable! When has the Ghost Post Office ever been so kind?"

"Why do I feel like this is more of a trap?"

"Once you move in, will you never be able to leave?"

"Whether it's a trap or not, having a specific address is better than wandering around aimlessly."

"At least we have a direction now."

"Let's go, let's check out the inn first."

"Maybe this is a 'perk' the Ghost Post Office is giving us."

Although my heart was filled with doubts.

Having a clear goal is always better than blindly exploring the ancient town.

Everyone reached a consensus.

They started walking in the direction of the Fulai Inn indicated on the envelope.

along the way.

They continued to encounter more "tourists".

These tourists' behavior patterns remained consistent.

They walk along a fixed path, say the same things repeatedly, and do the same things repeatedly.

They ignored Qin Taotao and the other intruders.

It's as if we're living in another dimension.

or,

They have no concept of being "living people".

"These tourists... are really strange."

One player couldn't help but whisper, his voice trembling slightly.

"They are like puppets controlled by some kind of force."

Another player chimed in.

"Completely lacking in its own thoughts and consciousness."

"This must be some kind of strange influence."

Some people have tried to offer an explanation.

"The strange things here can definitely control living people, and even turn them into this kind of appearance."

however.

Everyone knew in their hearts that, although they attributed it all to "strange influences."

But what exactly is so strange about this place?

They currently have no idea in what form it exists.

This ancient town appears peaceful and serene, yet an ominous atmosphere pervades it.

That invisible sense of oppression.

It's even more terrifying than facing a vengeful ghost directly.

soon.

They arrived at the end of the bluestone street, where a simple yet solemn inn appeared before them.

On the signboard of the inn.

The sign was written in bold, vigorous characters: "Fu Lai Inn".

The inn's doors were wide open.

A dim, yellow light shone from inside, as if inviting them in.

The moment the group stepped into the inn's lobby, they saw two living people.

These two people,

They are completely different from the "tourists" outside.

They exuded an aura of both humans and ghosts, their eyes brimming with wisdom and wit.

Instead of emptiness and numbness.

Their appearance,

It gave all players a strong shock.

It was as if an oasis had suddenly appeared in a strange ocean.

One of the.

It was a mysterious man dressed in a long black robe.

His face was somewhat pale.

But his eyes were extremely deep, as if they contained endless secrets.

He was sitting at a table in the center of the lobby.

Holding a cup of tea in his hand, he looked at them calmly.

Qin Taotao recognized him at a glance.

It was the same person who had been lying in the coffin in Huanggang Village!

He actually showed up here too.

Moreover, he looked more composed and powerful than last time.

And sitting opposite him.

Another figure was also holding a cup of tea.

He was wearing a black trench coat.

She has a slender figure.

His face was stern.

His eyes held an innate coldness and indifference.

He has a very strong presence.

It was as if the air in the entire lobby had frozen because of his appearance.

Yang Jian!

The name exploded in Qin Taotao's mind like a thunderclap.

The envelope in her hand.

At this moment, it seemed to sense the recipient's presence and began to tremble slightly.

in the real world.

Inside the command center.

The large screen clearly displayed the situation inside the lobby of the Fulai Inn.

When "the man in the coffin" and Yang Jian appeared on screen at the same time, the entire command center instantly erupted in excitement.

"My God! That's... that mysterious man from Huanggang Village!"

"And Yang Jian! He's here too!"

"This is like gods fighting!"

"The two of them actually appeared in the same instance!"

"What exactly is this Xiping Ancient Town? Why would it attract these two big shots?"

"Yang Jian!"

"Wasn't he always busy? How come he suddenly reunited with Qin Taotao?"

"This is highly unusual!"

"Could it be that these two people are 'NPCs' planted by the Ghost Post Office?"

"impossible!"

"They are living, breathing demon tamers! And among the very best!"

"I feel like this mission isn't just S-rank anymore, it's practically SSS-rank!"

"Look!"

"The envelope in Qin Taotao's hand is addressed to Yang Jian!"

"There must be some earth-shattering secret involved! The Ghost Post Office actually had Qin Taotao deliver a letter to Yang Jian!"

"With two top-tier Ghost Masters joining forces, this is a sure thing!"

"If they join forces, they can suppress any S-class anomaly!"

"I feel like things aren't that simple."

"Yang Jian is no pushover. Would he easily cooperate with others?"

"The plot development of this instance has completely exceeded our expectations!"

"And most importantly, the address for the letter is wrong. The envelope is addressed to Yang Jian in the real world, not Yang Jian in the supernatural world."

The mysterious man sitting opposite Yang Jian spoke first.

His voice was deep and magnetic, carrying an undeniable air of authority:

"You've arrived."

"The supernatural power here has fully erupted, and Xiping Ancient Town is about to become a dead land."

"Your mission this time."

"It's to help us suppress the strange things here."

Qin Taotao nodded thoughtfully.

Although she couldn't sense anything unusual about the entire Xiping Ancient Town, she could clearly feel the terrifying supernatural power emanating from the mysterious man in front of her.

That power was immense and profound.

It far surpassed any of the vengeful ghosts she had encountered before.

Obviously.

He is also a top-notch ghost tamer who has commanded more than one vengeful ghost.

The mysterious man saw Qin Taotao nod.

He then continued recounting the strange events that had occurred there.

His gaze swept over every player present, and he said in a heavy tone:

"The strange events here are called the Strange Lake."

"It was once a 'paranormal prison' meticulously crafted by ghost tamers, designed to suppress vengeful spirits that could not be completely eradicated."

He paused, picked up his teacup, and took a small sip.

continued:

"The core of the haunted lake is a female corpse suppressed at the bottom of the lake."

"This female corpse possesses a special supernatural ability: her tears can form a lake with a powerful suppressive force."

"All the vengeful spirits thrown into the haunted lake will be corrupted by its waters, sink to the bottom, and be suppressed forever."

"The deeper it sinks, the stronger the suppression becomes."

"However, not long ago, the seal on this haunted prison loosened."

"The lake water began to overflow, and countless vengeful ghosts that had been suppressed at the bottom of the lake broke free of their restraints and escaped from the eerie lake, instantly triggering an S-level supernatural disaster that swept through the entire Xiping Ancient Town."
