Mysterious Resurrection: Treacherous Pocket Watch

Chapter 23 Controlling the Ghost Species
Don't let foxtail pen meet parchment?

Lin Fan's eyes were serious, and he thought carefully about Yang Jian's last words.

There is a piece of parchment in Yang Jian's hand. This mysterious parchment seems to have human consciousness and can predict the future to a certain extent. It is one of the unsolved mysteries in the original book.

Foxtail pens have the ability to create stories.

Parchment provides a glimpse into future changes.

When the two are combined...

Thinking about it carefully, Lin Fan felt his scalp go numb.

"Anyway, I finally escaped another catastrophe. Yang Jian reminded me that I really need to be careful not to abuse the ability of this brush."

Lin Fan tried to pick up the foxtail pen.

This time it went smoothly, as if it really turned back into a simple and ordinary writing brush, and there is one less imaginative writer in this world.

After solving the biggest threat in the mourning hall, he hurriedly looked for Su Ruizhen.

Looking around, I saw that the beauty of the Republic of China was lying on the ground and fell into a deep sleep at this time, the corners of the mouth slightly curved seemed to be dreaming.

"Wake up, wake up!"

Lin Fan supported Su Ruizhen's head, no matter how much he called, he still couldn't wake her up.

He noticed that there seemed to be something behind Su Ruizhen's neck. Looking carefully, it was an unfinished oil painting.

Is this...

Is it the imprint of the person in the painting?
Lin Fan guessed in his heart that if the ghost painting originated from the person in the painting, then this person is really scary. It is just a painting, but it is the top supernatural spirit, and it almost destroyed a certain country that was ravaged by ghost paintings in modern times.

"Buddha of the five turbidities, the person in the painting, the king of ghosts and dragons."

"One is more terrifying than the other..."

Lin Fan shuddered.

Since Su Ruizhen fell into a deep sleep due to supernatural power, no matter how much she called, it would be useless.

He raised his head again and looked at the ghost species crucified on the desk. He didn't know what happened to Zhang Xianguang outside. According to the note of the foxtail pen, the girl in red named Tang Ruru was a complete supernatural being. Look, there is no chance of winning against it at all.

"There can be no further delay."

"There is no time to wait for Su Ruizhen to wake up. The only person who can try to control the ghost species is myself. I must succeed!"

Looking at the ghost species that looked like half a ginseng fruit on the table, Lin Fan made a decisive decision and decided to control his first ghost here.

But now the ghost species is suppressed by the black rivets.

He can't even swallow the nails together, can he?
But when the black rivets are pulled out, the ghost species will revive again. Controlling a living spirit is basically a narrow escape, and the chance of success is basically zero.

Lin Fan has the courage to endure spiritual recovery, but he can't die now, once he dies, Xiao Zhang and Su Ruizhen will also die.

"Control the ghost, control the ghost..."

"I figured it out!"

Lin Fan had an idea, and immediately took out the black and yellow writing brush at the top, and quickly wrote on the desk next to him:
"Because Su Ruizhen devoured half of the ghost species, and now it is suppressed by the black rivet, so the ghost species has fallen into a long-term death state. If I try to control it, there is no risk, which is very reasonable..."

Suddenly, the brush flicked.

The "without any risk" written on the back is blacked out, it seems that there is some kind of rule blocking it, which does not allow Foxtail Pen to write it like this.

Is it impossible to do this...

Lin Fan's thoughts turned quickly, and he wrote "There is a certain risk", this time it succeeded.

As the last word fell, the writing brush that was originally held in his hand suddenly broke free from his palm.

"The ghost cocoon has revived."

Five words, gone.

After being hit by the stories he wrote, Foxtail Pen changed a lot, at least it became significantly shorter.

Although it's not universal insurance, it's not bad, the rest is up to me to survive...

Lin Fan doesn't know what a ghost cocoon is. The most important thing right now is to control the ghost species, and other things can be put aside first.

"let's start!"

He reached out and pressed the black rivets that held the ghost seed.

First one was pulled out, but there was no response.

Then pull out the nails nailed to the limbs one after another.

When there was only the last black rivet left on the head, the "ginseng fruit" that had fallen into silence suddenly trembled, and the remaining eye kept wriggling, as if it wanted to open it.

Ready……

Lin Fan took a deep breath, and decisively pulled out the black rivets nailed to the ghost's forehead.

As soon as the suppression on his body was lifted, half of the ghost species woke up suddenly, and looked at the person in front of him with scarlet eyes, their eyes were innocent and revealed an indescribable evil.

Without hesitation, Lin Fan reached out to grab the ghost seed and was about to swallow it, but the moment his fingers touched the ghost seed, something like a dark version of ginseng fruit actually burrowed into his skin and entered his body!

"Hmm~!"

Lin Fan didn't have time to react.

There was a strong burning feeling in his internal organs, and he fell to the ground with a "plop", his whole body curled up like a cooked prawn, his face was flushed, and he was sweating profusely.

My stomach is about to burn through...

Lin Fan bit his lip, trying to keep his mind awake, because he knew that once he passed out, it meant that he had failed to control the ghost species.

He cannot accept failure!
At least not this time!
"Gollum."

This terrible torture is still spreading, Lin Fan can even hear the sound of his internal organs being burned through. Compared with the pain now, the almost broken finger before is nothing.

Only half a minute passed.

Lin Fan's spirit was on the verge of collapse.

It was like a baby playing with fire in his stomach. While he kept dragging his internal organs, he was still burning his blood vessels with fire. What was fed back to his thoughts was no longer the heart-wrenching pain, but the numb pain.

"I can't hold on anymore..."

Lin Fan's consciousness was blurring.

And when he was in this half-dream and half-awake moment, the breath on his body suddenly became icy cold, as if he had changed from a living person to a corpse.

On his pale face, his lips were unconsciously closed, and every time he uttered a silent word, the surrounding mourning hall would make a piercing sound of collapse.

while dying.

A tender white hand grabbed him.

A woman's voice sounded next to his ear, Lin Fan wanted to hear what she was saying clearly, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hear clearly.

"Wake up, wake up, wake up!"

Su Ruizhen tightly grasped Lin Fan's hand, looking at the young man in front of him who kept spitting out black blood, feeling a strong uneasiness in her heart.

She just woke up from a dream. Although she didn't know what happened in the mourning hall, she could guess from the ghost species that had never been seen. It was because she fell into a coma that Lin Fan took the risk to try to control the ghost species.

With Lin Fan's current miserable state.

I'm afraid it was a failure to control the ghost species.

And Su Ruizhen knew very well what would happen if he failed to control the ghost - there was only one dead end.

Thinking of this, her eyes were a little sore, she took out a pocket watch inlaid with gold trim from her pocket, put it in Lin Fan's hand, and said in a crying voice:
"This is the amulet my mother gave me. Now I'm giving it to you, so you must survive! Didn't you promise to teach me how to control the ghost species? Since you know how to control it, you will definitely not die here of!"

A gold-rimmed pocket watch is held in one hand.

The pointer inside spun crazily at this moment, exuding invisible power, and finally stayed at 12:30.

And at this time.

Lin Fan, who was on the verge of death, was lifted by an invisible object, floating in mid-air, and suddenly disappeared in place.
