Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 51 Shifting the Blame West (Seeking First Subscription)

From Li Hui's perspective, he could clearly see the ghostly domain that had enveloped the entire city of Dahai gradually shifting and rapidly spreading towards the suburbs where he was located.

Influenced by the ghostly painting, the surrounding environment began to change, and wisps of paper-ash-like objects appeared and drifted down from the sky.

At the beginning.

At first, there were only a few scattered pieces of paper dust falling, but soon, more and more paper dust fell, obscuring the sky and gradually turning the green plants on both sides of the road gray.

The once vibrant real world seemed to have lost all its color at this moment, leaving only a gray expanse.

"It seems that Ghost Painting has its eye on me. I have to find a way to get rid of her, otherwise I can't do anything with this ghostly thing following me around."

Seeing this, Li Hui frowned slightly, his brain racing as he considered what he should do next.

He originally thought that he had escaped the world of ghost paintings through that oil painting, and that was the end of the matter, but now it seems that it is far from that simple.

Ghost Painting had no intention of letting him go; the Ghost Domain was encroaching on this side.

"Xiao Li, what are you hesitating for? In my opinion, that thing isn't that scary. If it doesn't work out, let's join forces and take care of it here."

Ye Zhen, who followed Li Hui out of the old house, also saw the changes in the gray ghost realm and immediately spoke up.

His voice was cold, his expression indifferent, and he showed no regard for Guihua. He seemed restless and ready to make a move at any moment.

Previously, in the ghost realm of the painting, he was killed several times by the woman in the painting, and later he even chose to retreat. In Ye Zhen's eyes, this was a disgrace for his entire life.

But to his surprise, even after he had already made such concessions and abandoned his invincible stance, that devil still dared to take advantage of his kindness. This made Ye Zhen completely unable to tolerate it, and he wanted to join forces with Li Hui to imprison him and avenge his previous humiliation.

This is not Ye Zhen's delusion.

After the series of strange events, Ye Zhen had confirmed that Li Hui had controlled the Ghost Painting supernatural power through some unknown means. With Ye Wudi's help, imprisoning the Ghost Painting would be a piece of cake.

However, Li Hui remained unmoved by Ye Zhen's suggestion and ignored Ye Zhen's words. At this moment, he had already thought of a way to get rid of the ghost painting.

That is to divert the trouble to the west, letting others trigger the murderous pattern of the vengeful ghost, and luring away the vengeful ghost that was the source of the ghost painting.

And the number of people can't be too small...

"Ghost Paintings have been wandering abroad most of the time. I think no one will object if I bring them back there."

Thinking.

Li Hui began his operation.

Before the ghost painting's ghost domain could completely envelop him, his own ghost domain stretched out into the distance. Then, Li Hui disappeared from the spot, and his ghost domain transformed into a hazy gray light, flying away into the distance at an incredible speed.

As Li Hui's figure disappeared, a voice also entered Ye Zhen's ears.

"I'll lure the ghost painting away, but it won't be for free. Your Dahai City Paranormal Forum owes me a favor, which you'll have to repay later!"

This time, Li Hui didn't take Ye Zhen with him because it wasn't necessary. He wasn't Ye Zhen's babysitter. He only rescued Ye Zhen from the ghost painting incident because it was convenient, and the reward Ye Zhen had given him was quite substantial.

Moreover, Ghost Painting is mainly targeting Li Hui, and Ye Zhen also has Ghost Domain. As long as he doesn't do something reckless, there's no need to worry about Ye Zhen being shrouded by Ghost Painting again.

And indeed, things turned out exactly as Li Hui had predicted.

Seeing Li Hui's figure completely disappear into the horizon, Ye Zhen glanced at Gui Hua with a hint of resentment, then a chilling aura emanated from him, and he too vanished from the spot, using Ghost Domain to teleport away.

No sooner had Li Hui and Ye Zhen left than the ghostly domain belonging to the Ghost Painting spread out, with paper ash falling everywhere, creating a hazy gray that enveloped the surrounding area.

And it didn't stop there. This hazy, illusory world continued to stretch into the distance, leaving Dahai City at an incredible speed.

The direction the ghost painting was traveling was exactly the direction in which Li Hui's figure disappeared.

……

……

Across the ocean.

America.

California.

This is a city located in the heart of the high plains of the Midwestern United States. It has a developed economy and a resident population of nearly two million.

It was evening, and the sun had not yet completely set, but the sky, which should have been bright, suddenly darkened in an instant.

A thick haze suddenly appeared above California City, gray and astonishingly large, covering the entire city and blocking out the sunlight, instantly darkening the urban environment.

next moment.

Things started falling from the sky above the city.

"what is this?"

On the street, pedestrians who had looked up at the sky because the light had suddenly dimmed were the first to notice the anomaly.

Is this paper ash?

One of the young women caught a piece of something that was falling from the sky; it was the same as the ashes left behind after she secretly burned her textbooks when she was in school.

"Has a large paper mill nearby caught fire? There's so much paper ash. Could it be that what's in the sky isn't haze, but thick smoke from a fire?"

The woman secretly wondered.

However, at this moment, the city lights became even dimmer, and the amount of paper ash falling from the sky increased dramatically. Looking up, it was dense and floated in the air, like a rain of paper ash.

"what?"

"What it is?"

Just as the woman looked up, she suddenly noticed something else mixed in with the flying ashes.

Because the light was too dim and the distance was too great, she couldn't see it clearly at first glance.

However, as the ashes continued to fall, what was hidden inside was completely revealed to the woman: a series of oil paintings.

The frame is decorated with old carvings and painted with mottled red paint. Inside the frame is a portrait of a woman.

The woman in the painting is dressed in red, her face is blurred, but her exposed fair hands seem to have a special magic that attracts the eye and makes her unforgettable.

Besides, the most bizarre thing is that the woman's palm in the painting is pierced by a golden candlestick, and there is a white candle on the candlestick.

"What perfect hands! The artist who painted this must be a very famous master," the woman exclaimed. The painting skill was astonishing, leaving a deep impression on the viewer and lingering in their mind for a long time.

However, what she didn't know was that as she imagined and thought, the woman in red in the oil painting seemed to come alive, her hands pale and cold, as if they might reach out from the painting at any moment.

this moment.

The murder pattern associated with the ghost drawing has been triggered.

It wasn't just this young woman standing on the street; the same thing was happening all over California.

The number of oil paintings created by Li Hui that have been spilled is astonishing.

He created it using an oil painting from an old house on the outskirts of Dahai City, each painting containing a ghostly, eerie quality.

In that instant, countless foreigners triggered the murder pattern of the ghost paintings. The real ghost paintings could descend at any moment, and these people could die at any moment.

But Li Hui, the culprit behind all this, showed no mercy whatsoever.

While this is somewhat of a generalization, he genuinely had no liking for these foreigners, especially...

at the same time.

True terror has arrived.

The ghostly realm belonging to the Ghost Painting is rapidly invading this area.

Everything in reality, upon encountering that hazy, illusory world, seemed to be assimilated, becoming dull and colorless, gradually becoming part of that world.
