Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 194 Zhang Xianguang: You want to stop me?
The moment He Yuelian saw the oil painting clearly, the image of the woman in red in the painting involuntarily appeared in her mind.

and this.

This is equivalent to triggering the murderous pattern of the vengeful ghost in the painting.

next moment.

The surrounding environment became increasingly gloomy.

The paper dust falling from the sky suddenly became denser, as if the eerie atmosphere of the surrounding ghost paintings had intensified.

At the same time, a series of crisp footsteps rang out, echoing around.

Soon a red figure appeared in everyone's sight.

It was a woman dressed in a bright red dress, as vivid as blood. This red dress stood out particularly in the gray, ghostly world, and its style was similar to the wedding dress that had been peeled off the mummified bride.

Furthermore, the woman's appearance was very blurry, making it difficult to see clearly, as if through a thick fog. The only thing that could be clearly seen was her hands, which appeared pale and cold.

"The vengeful ghost from the painting has appeared!"

Upon seeing this, Zhang Xian, Wang Han, and the others immediately took a deep breath and hurriedly turned their heads away, as if they were avoiding some kind of flood or ferocious beast, not daring to look at the woman in the painting even once.

The reason for this is quite simple.

The more you see, the more likely the image of a vengeful ghost will appear in your mind, which may trigger the ghost's killing patterns and make you a target of this terrifying ghost.

Zhang Xianguang, on the other hand, didn't seem to care that much.

Whether it was because he was confident in his own strength or for some other reason, Zhang Xianguang did not show the same fear of the ghost in the painting as the others. Instead, he carefully examined it for a few moments before turning his gaze to He Yuelian on the other side.

At this moment, He Yuelian's face was filled with terror. As she saw the oil painting, she triggered the ghost painting's murderous pattern, attracting the vengeful ghost. At the same time, her body also came into contact with the fluttering red wedding dress.

The eerie wedding dress seemed to possess a self-awareness and life, immediately clinging to He Yuelian's body the moment it made contact with her.

Seeing this, Zhang Xianguang said as if to himself, "The terrifying thing about the mummified bride is never the mummified body itself, but the red wedding dress and the red veil on her body. This level of supernatural power is not something that ordinary ghost controllers can handle. Now the red wedding dress is yours to keep. I hope you can survive."

Speaking of which.

Zhang Xianguang turned his gaze to Zhang Ying and Du Hong beside him and said, "It's about time. Let's begin the next step. Lift the red veil off that mummified corpse and put it on He Yuelian's head."

Upon hearing this, Du Hong and his companion immediately began to act.

At the same time, Zhang Xianguang stepped forward and came to He Yuelian's side, then put the pair of red embroidered shoes he was holding on He Yuelian's feet.

These embroidered shoes were painted by him with dye and also possess supernatural power, but they cannot be maintained for long. However, it should not be difficult for them to last until He Yuelian completes her mission of controlling the vengeful spirit.

As for whether He Yuelian will be able to successfully control the vengeful spirit in the end, even Zhang Xianguang himself doesn't know. He can only do his best to maintain the balance of the supernatural forces on He Yuelian, thereby increasing her chances of successfully controlling the spirit.

After all, when it comes to things related to the supernatural, who dares to say there's a 100% chance of success?

As long as there is a possibility, that is enough!
While pondering, Zhang Xianguang stepped back.

At this moment, the red embroidered shoes that had been drawn were successfully put on He Yuelian's feet, and the red wedding dress was almost completely worn on He Yuelian's body.

During this process, He Yuelian's body did not struggle at all. It was not that she did not want to, but that she could not. The moment the red wedding dress was attached to her body, He Yuelian lost control of her body and could only stand there motionless with a face full of fear, letting out a terrified scream.

Strange to say.

The red wedding dress fit He Yuelian perfectly, as if it were tailor-made for her, without any sense of incongruity.

"Can she succeed?" At this moment, Nie Yingping and the others all turned their attention to He Yuelian.

Under their watchful eyes, He Yuelian's expression changed rapidly, from one of terror to one filled with pain.

In addition, He Yuelian's skin changed from rosy to extremely pale, and then turned ashen, just like this gray and ghostly world.

"Damn it, is our operation going to fail?" Upon seeing this, Nie Yingping and the others' expressions changed drastically.

Although they knew that the ghost wedding dress was extremely terrifying and that the only result for an ordinary person to wear it was death, they couldn't help but feel scared as they saw He Yuelian's vital signs rapidly disappearing.

If He Yuelian were to fail to control it, the situation here would completely spiral out of control, and they would become the targets of attacks from nearby vengeful spirits.

Whether it's a ghost bride or a ghost painting, both are extremely terrifying supernatural phenomena. Even people like them would be in mortal danger if they encountered such a supernatural attack.

"Don't be nervous. It's not the last minute yet, and no one can be sure of the outcome. Right now, He Yuelian is just behaving normally as an ordinary person after being affected by the supernatural. It doesn't mean that her control will fail."

Compared to Nie Yingping and the others, Zhang Xianguang was undoubtedly much calmer. Even now, he remained expressionless, as if everything was still under his control.

"Cold, so cold... Am I going to die?"

He Yuelian, standing to the side, seemed oblivious to the conversation between Zhang Xianguang and the others. At this moment, she felt her body stiffen, and a terrifying chill was seeping into her entire body, as if it were going to freeze her completely.

But it's not over yet.

Under the eerie influence of the red wedding dress, He Yuelian's body was not only frozen, but her consciousness also began to blur, as if she were about to die.

At this crucial moment, Zhang Ying brought over the red veil that was originally covering the mummified corpse's head and placed it directly on He Yuelian's head. Combined with her red wedding dress and red embroidered shoes, she looked like a bride-to-be.

It was precisely because of the arrival of the red veil that He Yuelian's already blurred consciousness was instantly pulled back by a supernatural force.

And suddenly another memory appeared in her mind. That memory was fragmented and discontinuous. Most importantly, this memory did not belong to He Yuelian herself, but the person in the memory looked exactly like her, as if they were carved from the same mold.

"She...she's also named Yue Lian?!"

Although the additional memories in her mind were fragmented and incomplete, He Yuelian still managed to piece together some clues. The woman in her memory who looked just like her was also named Yuelian, but she was not a modern person, but someone from the Republican era.

"So my birth, my appearance, even my name have special meanings? I've been schemed against by these people since the day I was born?"

He Yuelian is not stupid.

After she regained consciousness, she understood everything.

The extra memories in her mind, the actions of the people around her, and her family's past attitudes towards her... all of these things, when put together, suggest that her life was 'pre-ordained' from the very beginning.

"So my birth was actually to 'replace' the 'Moon Lotus' in my mind, including the supernatural abilities she possessed in her previous life?"

Think of this.

While feeling disbelief and sorrow, He Yuelian also felt a strong murderous intent.

she was thinking.

If I successfully control the supernatural entity related to the other 'Moon Lotus' this time, I will kill everyone around me as soon as I become a Ghost Tamer.

However, at that very moment, He Yuelian, who had just regained consciousness, felt an unbearable pain.

This pain did not act directly on the physical body, but on the soul. At this moment, He Yuelian felt as if her consciousness was being torn apart. The intense pain made her unable to help but let out a wail.

obviously.

The red veil covering He Yuelian's head is also a terrifying supernatural object. While protecting He Yuelian's consciousness from the supernatural influence of the ghost wedding dress, this supernatural object is also eroding her consciousness.

In this situation, He Yuelian still faces certain death, because the supernatural forces surrounding her are still out of balance. To change the situation, new supernatural forces must be added immediately to balance everything.

However, things soon took a turn for the better.

Previously, He Yuelian triggered the killing pattern of the ghost painting, which was a terrifying thing that would almost certainly lead to death in the eyes of others, but at this moment it became He Yuelian's lifeline.

Tap, tap, tap!

A series of crisp yet eerie footsteps echoed as the woman in red, the source of the ghost painting and a vengeful spirit, hurried toward He Yuelian's location.

"The supernatural elements of the red veil and the ghostly wedding dress are about to collide with the vengeful spirit in the ghost painting. Hopefully, they can maintain a special balance. Only in this way can He Yuelian have the possibility of controlling everything!"

On the other side, Nie Yingping and the others stared intently at this scene, no longer as wary of Gui Hua as before, because He Yuelian had now become Gui Hua's primary target, and they would not be in danger until He Yuelian was killed.

It's not just them.

Even Zhang Xianguang, who was standing to the side, clenched his fists nervously at this moment, clearly no longer as calm as before.

He had been planning for decades, all for this moment. Now that the most crucial moment had arrived, how could he not be nervous?

"If we fail, we will face attacks from both the out-of-control Ghost Wedding Dress and the Ghost Painting. Everyone's life will be in danger, including mine. But if we succeed... then I will take over all of this!"

Zhang Xianguang thought to himself.

Tatata!
The vengeful ghost on the other side continued to move.

They quickly arrived in front of He Yuelian.

He Yuelian was still wailing in pain, but she was not dead. Even as the terrifying footsteps drew closer, she was not killed because the red wedding dress she was wearing blocked the other supernatural attacks. The wedding dress was both protecting He Yuelian and killing her.

next moment.

Under the tense gaze of Zhang Xianguang and others.

He Yuelian, who had been wailing in pain, suddenly raised her hand without warning. It wasn't that she was controlling her body to raise her hand, but rather that the red wedding dress she was wearing was in control of it.

This gesture of raising her hand implies that the terrifying wedding dress is about to summon ghosts, but with the vengeful spirit right in front of her, there's no need for it to start summoning ghosts at all.

So almost the instant He Yuelian raised her hand, Guihua, who had just walked up to her, simultaneously extended a fair yet cold hand and grabbed He Yuelian's raised hand.

To others, this behavior seemed as if Guihua was responding to He Yuelian's actions, actively taking her hand.

The moment their palms touched, an unpredictable conflict began to erupt between the supernatural forces at work: the Ghost Wedding Dress and the Ghost Painting.

Soon, Guihua and the out-of-control He Yuelian both calmed down.

The vengeful ghost that was the source of the ghost painting incident was unable to move. At the same time, He Yuelian under the hood stopped wailing in pain and stood still. Even the paper ash falling from the sky stopped at this moment.

But soon the grayish paper dust continued to fall.

The brief pause and continued falling of the ashes did not alert Nie Yingping and the others. Instead, Zhang Xianguang's expression changed, and he suddenly turned his head to look in another direction of the open space.

Suddenly, several figures appeared out of nowhere, as if they had always been standing there and their figures had only just been revealed.

"Li Hui, it's you!"

"You're here at this time to stop me?" Zhang Xianguang frowned slightly as he saw the figures and asked Li Hui, who was in the lead.

As he spoke, Zhang Xianguang kept glancing at Li Hui and his group.

Aside from Li Hui, who was in the lead, and Wang Chaling, who was protected by the spirits of the two first-generation kings, Zhang Xianguang paid some attention to them and even feared them. The others were completely ignored by Zhang Xianguang.

As Zhang Xianguang's voice rang out, Nie Yingping and the others, who had not noticed anything amiss before, also saw Li Hui and his group. Immediately, they all looked at Li Hui and the others with vigilance, ready to make a move at any moment.

Seeing this, Li Hui said, "Don't be nervous, Zhang Xianguang. You should know that I personally am not against the Peach Blossom Spring Project, and we are not here to stop you."

"The main reason is that you guys made such a big commotion this time. The entire city of Dahan is shrouded in the ghost painting's eeriness. Some people at headquarters are worried about it, and since the reward they offered is high enough, I had no choice but to come here."

As he spoke, Li Hui glanced at He Yuelian on the other side.

At this moment, she and the vengeful ghost in the ghost painting were frozen in place, motionless. The supernatural conflict between them was still ongoing, and it was clear that the Ghost Wedding Dress and the Ghost Painting would not be able to completely reach a balance and enter a state of stagnation for the time being.

at the same time.

On the other side, Nie Yingping breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Li Hui say that he was not there to stop their plans and that his tone did not reveal much hostility. Zhang Xianguang, however, did not relax and his brows remained furrowed.

He understood the underlying meaning in Li Hui's words.

Li Hui said he personally neither disliked nor opposed the Peach Blossom Spring Project, but what about the other people from headquarters behind him?
Especially the man in the special forces uniform with a serious face, Zhang Xianguang saw strong hostility in his eyes.

Although Zhang Xianguang didn't care much about the others besides Li Hui and Wang Chaling, if a conflict were to break out between them and they were to start fighting, how could Li Hui, as the leader of the opposing team, possibly stand idly by?

Thinking of this.

Zhang Xianguang's heart sank slightly.

However, at that very moment, Li Jun, standing behind Li Hui, couldn't help but launch an attack from the headquarters team.

He spoke in a cold voice:
Asking for a monthly ticket! ! !
