Mysterious Resurrection: Starting with Controlling Sadako

Chapter 174, pushed, is it open?
Wang Liang's figure was in a barely perceptible, ethereal state as he stood within the Slit-Mouthed Woman's ghostly domain.

After Wang Genquan entered the passage, he enveloped Wang Genquan in the ghost realm, making his body appear slightly weaker.

However, being in the ghost realm, Wang Genquan was unaware of the faintness of his own body; all he could see was that the surrounding environment was faint.

But this is a supernatural place. Even from the perspective of the Slit-Mouthed Demoness's Domain, the surrounding corridors and walls also have a supernatural, solidified state.

So Wang Genquan didn't even realize that he had been enveloped in the Slit-Mouthed Demoness's Domain.

The corpse of Li Qingzhi, a resurrected vengeful ghost, often wanders around this haunted place, slaying ghosts. Stepping on the footprints left on the carpet will trigger a medium, causing him to swing his sword.

Wang Liang did this to avoid the possibility that Wang Genquan, who was beside him, would suddenly be split in two before they even reached their destination.

Ordinary ghost tamers cannot withstand Li Qingzhi's cleaver slashing down along the medium; even the ghost within his body would be dismembered with a single blow.

"Lead the way to the room where you heard the sound of breaking glass," Wang Liang said.

Wang Genquan nodded and took the lead, walking forward to guide the way.

However, as he walked along the side of the corridor, he also reminded Wang Liang:

"Don't walk in the middle of the corridor, or you may encounter unbearable danger. But you should also be careful of the doors on both sides of the room. If there are ghosts in the room, you may be pulled in by them. In short, this place is full of dangers. You may not even know how you died if you are not careful."

“If you’re afraid of being pulled in by the ghost, just walk in the middle. There’s no need to worry about the risks of walking in the middle. You’re in my ghost domain now, so you can’t trigger that ghost’s killing patterns,” Wang Liang said.

"Ghost Realm?" Wang Genquan was taken aback, then nodded and continued to lead the way in silence.

In the dimly lit and narrow corridor, as Wang Liang passed the first guest room door, he glanced at the guest room next to it.

The door has an old European style and looks quite old.

Although the carpet on the floor was still bright red and clean, the paint on the wooden doors of the guest rooms on both sides had peeled off, leaving traces of time.

In addition, there was a brass room number hanging on the door, with a number written on it:
1.

Unlike the room numbers at the real Caesars Hotel, which are in the format of 001, 002, here it is just a single number.

"Wait a minute."

Wang Liang stopped Wang Genquan. He looked at the tightly closed door, pondered for a moment, and then came to the door.

The rooms where those trapped in Caesars Palace are resurrected usually end with the number 1, such as 101, 201801, etc.

Following this pattern, this Room 1 should also be a room where someone is resurrected.

The resurrection room near the entrance/exit is a place where those cursed in this room must suffer greatly.

Wang Liang could imagine the scene: every time he stepped out of the room, he would excitedly run out upon seeing the exit, only to die after escaping the haunted place.

Then, losing its memory, it joyfully runs out again and dies.
If someone dies until 10 p.m. and is accidentally locked in an out-of-control haunted room, they might live a little longer, but not for long.

The number of times they died quickly in ignorance was probably quite numerous. Now they were either permanently killed by some vengeful ghost, or they became outcasts and escaped from the hotel, or perhaps, in a more special case.

In any case, the people in this room did not appear explicitly in the original storyline.

This was the first time Wang Liang had encountered such a resurrection room, and he wanted to go in and see if there were any special discoveries.

He gripped the doorknob and pushed the door open.

The guest rooms here are all haunted. If the doors are open, that's fine; you can just walk in. But if the doors are tightly closed, ordinary people can't open them at all. Only vengeful ghosts or those using supernatural abilities can open them.
Click.

Wang Liang pushed the door open easily and stared at the dark crack revealed by the door, remaining silent for a moment.

He hadn't used any supernatural methods yet; he just wanted to try pushing it open by hand to verify it. But how did it suddenly open?
"Be careful, the room might be haunted," Wang Genquan cautiously warned from behind.

Seeing that Wang Liang remained motionless while pushing the door open, Wang Genquan asked again, puzzled:

"Um, what's wrong with you?"

"nothing."

After a brief silence, Wang Liang, his expression unchanged, pushed the door open completely.

Unlike Xianglan's resurrection, the wall lamps outside Room 101 were on.

The wall lamp outside room number 1 was almost completely off, leaving only a very faint light, as if it had lost most of its supernatural power. It was also dark when the door was opened.

The room looked dilapidated, with peeling old walls and a faint smell of decay.

The living room, bedroom, and bathroom were small, with simple furniture and a layer of dust covering them, as if they had been abandoned for many years.

Apart from that, there's nothing special about it from the outside; it looks like an ordinary abandoned guest room.

Seeing that the wall lamp was almost extinguished, Wang Liang had a guess in his mind, so he strode in, his goal clear, heading straight for the closed bedroom door.

Upon opening the bedroom door, a strong stench of decay wafted out, quite unpleasant, and a strange atmosphere emerged.

There was no bed in the bedroom, only a strange tombstone lying upside down on the floor.

Beneath the tombstone lay a mangled and rotting corpse, unrecognizable as human. The surrounding area was filled with congealed bodily fluids, emitting a strong stench of decay.

The upper part of the tombstone had shattered into pieces of varying sizes, scattered all over the ground, leaving only the broken half of the tombstone pressing down on the corpse.

The remaining half of the tombstone, as well as the rubble on the ground, are engraved with some crooked black characters.

If you fixate on the writing, it twists and writhes eerily in your field of vision, making it impossible to decipher its contents.

Seeing this, Wang Liang thought to himself, "Sure enough, a room with a lit wall lamp is not necessarily safe, but it must be haunted by supernatural forces, some of which may imprison vengeful ghosts or bear curses."

Conversely, the supernatural almost disappears, and the room becomes nearly ordinary, including this room used for resurrection.

The tombstone was pressing down on the corpse; he shouldn't have been able to see this scene. Only the cursed can see the true appearance of this room.

But now the wall lamps outside the door are almost completely off, and the true state of the room is revealed under these circumstances.

The door light was almost extinguished, but not completely extinguished. In the original story, Yang Jian didn't use the power of the evil spirit; he tried to push the door of room number 1, but it wouldn't open.

Still harboring doubts, Wang Liang put them aside for the time being and went into the bedroom to the half-complete tombstone.

He couldn't understand the black characters engraved on it, but since they could writhe and twist strangely in his field of vision, they also possessed a strange supernatural quality.

"Half of it, is it still usable? How do we use it?"

Regardless of whether he would need it in the future, since there was still half a tombstone, Wang Liang, adhering to the principle of collecting what he could, let ghost blood surge from his feet and collected the rubble and the half tombstone from the ground.
