Mysterious Resurrection: Starting with Controlling Sadako

Chapter 56 Messenger
At the village entrance,
A group of three people, two men and one woman, were walking along the mountain road to this place. They all looked very serious, not like tourists passing by, but as if they had come to this village with a purpose.

The leader was a somewhat gloomy-looking man. After arriving at the village entrance, he looked around and finally fixed his gaze on the crooked old locust tree, staring at the red cloth hanging on the branches for a few seconds.

"Old Feng, what are you looking at? Is something wrong?" A slightly immature-looking young man with glasses asked from the side.

"It's nothing, I just think there's something wrong with the red cloth on that tree. It seems to have dried blood on it. Be careful, this village is not simple," said Chang Feng, the gloomy man.

“There’s definitely something wrong with the place where the letter was delivered. Once we’ve sent the letter out, we should leave immediately. What happens here afterwards is none of our business,” Lü Huizhen said.

Lu Huizhen was the woman among the three. At this moment, her delicate eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she looked disgusted, sniffing.

"And there's a strange smell in the air here."

"The smell of cow dung? It's normal for villages to have that smell; it's the same in my hometown," said the young and inexperienced Fang Rui.

“No,” Chang Feng said. “It’s the smell of corpses, very faint. People who stay in the village for a long time might not notice it, but outsiders like us can smell it clearly. Let’s go into the village first, and we’ll see what happens after we go in.”

"Hmm, speaking of which, why can't we see a single person at the village entrance? Where's that intelligence-gathering auntie organization that every village has?"

"Who knows."

As the three entered the village, a photograph was hidden among the weeds under the locust tree at the village entrance.

The person in the photo peers through the gaps in the weeds, their gaze following the three people as they move until they enter the village.

At the same time, in the hunchbacked old man's home, Wang Liang opened his eyes, his brows furrowed.

'A messenger? Or perhaps, a ghost post office?'

The three people were clearly not normal travelers, and Wang Liang also heard what they were saying through supernatural means.

They possessed the supernatural power of vengeful spirits, and their words about leaving after delivering the message perfectly matched the characteristics of the people in a certain place that Wang Liang learned about through the original plot.

A special building hidden deep within the ghost realm, built in an independent supernatural space, is the Ghost Post Office located in Dahan City.

This place was previously in the hands of Luo Wensong, one of the Seven Elders, and was used to train ghost controllers to send messages to places where supernatural events might occur, providing early warnings.

But now Luo Wensong is dead. After dismembering some of the supernatural beings, his corpse turned into a knocking ghost, wandering outside. He had a brief confrontation with Wang Liang before.

The Ghost Post Office has long since gone out of control. The messengers inside no longer deliver letters to warn people of places where paranormal events might occur, but instead stimulate them, causing paranormal events to break out prematurely.

For this society, those messengers are a cancer.

Although they were initially innocent, as they were all forced to become messengers for the Ghost Post Office after inexplicably receiving a letter.

Every so often, a letter must be delivered under duress. If the letter is not delivered or is lost, the person will be attacked by a terrifying ghost, which means death.

However, despite the initial reasons, this does not mean that their subsequent actions of delivering the letter and triggering a series of paranormal events were innocent.

'The messengers' arrival here is no coincidence; the letter they carry is most likely for the impending arrival of the film ghost!'

Thinking of this, Wang Liang wanted to go out now and kill the three men so that the messenger wouldn't cause trouble. But after thinking it over, he felt that he couldn't just kill them like that.

The letter may trigger paranormal events. Perhaps the ghost in the movie will only descend after receiving that letter?

No, to put it more accurately, the time of the arrival of the movie ghost is provided by the system, so it should be correct.

But after it arrives, it might not necessarily emerge. Perhaps it will hide? Or perhaps it will fall into a deep sleep? Maybe it needs this letter to stimulate it to come out?

Wang Liang couldn't be sure; these were just a series of guesses he made after seeing the messenger appear.

This caused his expression to change, unsure whether he should stop the messenger's actions, a fact noticed by Zhou Kun who was standing nearby. "What's wrong? It seems you just used the power of the vengeful spirit again."

Zhou Kun had gotten used to this day when Wang Liang would often exude a cold aura and use supernatural methods.

He figured it out; this guy probably didn't need to worry about the resurgence of the vengeful spirits, and he didn't know how he did it.

After reaching this conclusion, Zhou Kun felt both admiration and awe for Wang Liang. How powerful must a ghost tamer be who doesn't need to worry about the resurgence of vengeful spirits and can freely use their supernatural abilities?

Several times during this time, he wanted to ask the other person how they did it, but he felt it was inappropriate.

How could I casually bring up something like this? What if it involves the other person's secrets? I think I'd better not.

Even though he himself was facing the problem of the resurgence of vengeful spirits, and judging from the situation, he estimated that he would live for at most a few months, he was unwilling to speak about it.

“Three people have come from outside the village,” Wang Liang said.

"Is there something wrong with them?" Zhou Kun frowned.

"Yes, I'm going to take them down and question them."

After Wang Liang finished speaking, he stood up and walked outside.

Let's get our hands on that letter, which might be for the film and television ghost, first. As for whether to deliver it later, that's up to him; we'll see how things go.

He needs to know the specific targets of these messengers.

"I'll go as well."

Without saying a word, Zhou Kun also got up and followed Wang Liang out.

Chang Feng and his two companions walked along the dirt road in the village. They had already noticed the problem with the village; they hardly saw anyone along the way.

They only vaguely heard the band playing their shrill, mournful suonas again in the cemetery to the north, and then they changed direction and headed towards the cemetery.

But just as they arrived at a T-junction, they saw a man in a black overcoat with a cold expression walking out from the side road, standing in the middle of the intersection, looking at them indifferently.

Chang Feng and the others stopped and frowned as they looked at Wang Liang at the intersection.

"Friend, is there something you need?"

Chang Feng's intuition told him that this person was not from this village, and now that he was standing at the crossroads blocking the way, he probably had ill intentions.

As Wang Liang walked out, Lü Huizhen glanced at him, but her eyes suddenly felt as if they had been pricked by needles. She quickly lowered her head, took a step back, cold sweat dripping down her forehead, and shrieked:
"Chang Feng! This guy also controls a vengeful ghost! My eyes reacted strongly to him; the ghost he controls is no ordinary ghost!"

"what!"

Upon hearing Lü Huizhen's words, Chang Feng and Fang Rui's expressions changed drastically.

Chang Feng immediately took out an antique-looking seal with dried bloodstains on the bottom from the inside pocket of his clothes, ready to act at any moment.

Fang Rui reacted even more strongly, pulling a pistol directly from his pants and pointing it at Wang Liang.

Just as Wang Liang was about to ask a question, he saw a gun pointed at him, his face immediately darkened, and his eyes narrowed dangerously.

"Put the gun down."
