Mysterious Resurrection: Starting with Controlling Sadako

Chapter 202 The Funeral
Hearing Lin Bei's analysis, Wang Liang didn't turn his head; his gaze remained fixed ahead, but he said in a deep voice:
“They can’t get on the car, and your analysis is correct. I also think this wedding procession won’t give way, so we have to get rid of them. However, there’s a reason why this wedding procession made of paper figures is here; they’re here to welcome a ghost.”

As Wang Liang was speaking, the wedding procession arrived just a dozen meters in front of the bus.

The sounds of gongs and drums stopped, and the paper figures of the wedding procession stood motionless on the street.

The paint on the paper face stared unblinkingly at the bus parked on the side of the road ahead.

The blush on each paper figure's cheeks seemed even more vibrant and festive, as if they were all waiting for something.

“They are missing a groom,” Wang Liang said.

As the drumming and gonging outside the car stopped, the mummified groom sitting next to him raised his withered face and stiffly stood up.

The legs, straightening from their bent state, emitted a creaking sound as if rusty gears were starting to turn again.

Wang Liang stood up and made way for him.

The mummified groom moved, got up from his seat, and walked towards the back door.

“The mummified groom, this is probably a piece of the ghost puzzle from that wedding procession,” Lin Bei frowned. “Letting this ghost pass by will probably make the procession even more dangerous.”

“That’s why it can’t get through,” Wang Liang said coldly.

Thick, scarlet ghost blood gushed from beneath Wang Liang's feet, from which a blood-stained bone spear slowly rose, which he then grasped in his hand.

"I'll deal with the wedding procession. If there's a ghost in the car that wants to get off, let it get off. But you guys stop any ghosts that want to get on the car."

Wang Liang raised his bone spear, pointing the tip at the person inside the carriage, and said coldly and without any politeness:
"Let me be frank, I don't want to see any ghosts get on the bus this time. Dealing with the ghosts that do get on the bus will also help you reduce the risk of riding, so you'd better not think about just sitting here doing nothing."

The bus, already half full, could fill up at any stop. If I come back and there's an extra ghost on board, I'll just get one person off. You guys figure it out yourselves.

After saying that, Wang Liang turned around and swung his arm, violently throwing the blood-stained bone spear in his hand out the door.

The mummified groom stepped off the bus, stood on the street, his eyes flickered, and he turned to the line of people waiting for him in front of the bus.

Its stiff, withered body turned and walked towards the wedding procession.

The tall paper horse in front of the bridal sedan chair even raised its front hooves, as if it couldn't wait to welcome its owner.

But the next second, a bloodstained bone gun suddenly shot out from the back door of the bus, piercing through the back of the mummified groom and pinning him to the side of the street.

The monstrous strength carried by the bone spear caused spiderweb-like cracks to appear on the concrete pavement of the street, and the almost unsolvable suppression of the coffin nails silenced the mummified groom on the spot.

Wang Liang got off the bus and went to the mummified groom. He gripped the bone gun stuck in the groom's back and stared at the wedding procession in front of the bus, which seemed frozen and motionless.

Everyone on the bus witnessed this scene.

Lin Bei shrugged: "That's really fierce. He took down the groom ghost instantly. Everyone, Wang Lianggang is right. Although his words were a bit direct, whatever the reason, his handling of the ghost getting on the bus did help us."

We can't just stand by and watch. This county is dangerous. If a ghost gets on the bus, we should be prepared to act. The bus can't be full; this is for our own sake too.

"Lin Bei, you actually listen to him?" Xu Feng said gloomily from the side.

Lin Bei smiled helplessly: "Xu Feng, what's the point of saying this now? What else can we do? Do you want to be the one he throws down when he comes back? He really does throw people."

"Leaving aside the vengeful spirits he controls, his supernatural weapon alone is incredibly ferocious. Once nailed to it, the spirits seem to have no ability to resist and simply fall silent. You want to be nailed to death too?" Someone said sinisterly, "Heh, I feel that if we really have to throw someone out, it'll most likely be that guy surnamed Xu. If any ghosts come, how about we release one up and try to hold off the others?"

Xu Feng glared at him fiercely: "Zhao Jie, are you done yet? I never said I wouldn't do anything. I..."

Lin Bei interrupted, "Alright, stop arguing. Wang Liang is about to make a move. We should keep an eye on the hotel."

Wang Liang nailed the mummified groom to the ground, and ghostly blood gushed from his feet, sinking the groom directly into the water. He never intended to let the groom go.

When the mummified groom was nailed to the ground, the wedding procession remained deathly silent and motionless.

But the disappearance of the mummified groom on the streets of the county town seemed to have angered the wedding procession.

when!
The paper figure at the front of the procession suddenly struck the gong in its hand.

The gong was made of paper, but when it was struck with a stick, it still produced a loud gong sound.

With gongs banging, drums beating, and suonas playing, the procession became lively again.

However, this time the sounds of various musical instruments sounded desolate and dull, and the clothes on the paper figures suddenly folded a few times, turning from red paper to white paper.

The entire festive yet eerie procession quickly turned into a mix of white and black, and obvious wrinkles appeared on the faces of the paper figures. Their originally stiff smiles were forcibly folded down, turning into mournful faces.

A wedding procession can turn into a funeral procession in seconds.

The funeral procession started moving, marching forward with gongs and drums.

Even though they didn't meet the groom, they had no intention of turning back and continued walking along the street.

Lin Bei was right. This group wouldn't turn back or take a detour. If they continued, they would inevitably crash into the eerie bus that was parked on the side of the road.

Although the inevitable result will be that the person who staged the accident gets knocked over, it may also cause the bus to temporarily stall.

Moreover, the various musical instruments that rang out were particularly noticeable in this empty and desolate county town, echoing in all directions.

A hidden terror gradually emerges in what was originally an empty county town.

Sometime during the day, dark figures appeared in the shops with their signs on both sides, standing quietly in front of the windows and looking towards the bus, seemingly drawn by the noise outside.

As soon as Wang Liang sank the mummified groom, he noticed the changes in the wedding procession and the commotion in the shops on both sides, and his heart sank.

'Damn it, this is too noisy. I can't let them keep playing; it's attracting ghosts.'

The faded ghostly aura of Sadako instantly spread out, but it only covered the half of the street where Wang Liang and the funeral procession were located.

He did not spread the ghost domain throughout the entire county, and did not even touch the shops and buildings on both sides of the street, so as not to attract evil spirits from other places for no reason.

Beneath Wang Liang's feet, amidst the still exceptionally crimson ghost blood within the faded ghost realm, a pale hand suddenly reached out.

A Sadako crawled out of the blood, then vanished instantly and reappeared at the front of the funeral procession.
