Mysterious Resurrection: I am practicing magic in troubled times

Chapter 86 Reconciliation
Wang Chaling still felt a little apprehensive when he recalled that place.

But Zhang Qian was watching from the side, and he could only bite the bullet and explain, "It's not that I deliberately made excuses, but that place is entangled with an unspeakable and terrifying curse. No matter whether it is a human or a ghost, there is no way to escape after entering." There."

"So I'm sorry, I can't give you those evil spirits."

In order to prevent Zhang Qian from getting angry, Wang Chaling took a breath and immediately added: "But I still have a few ghosts that I plan to use for research. If Mr. Zhang doesn't dislike them, I can give them all to you."

"Then how many ghosts do you have on your hands now?" Zhang Qian asked.

"In fact, some of the ghosts in those 23 supernatural incidents have wandered away. In the end, I only imprisoned fourteen ghosts. Subtracting the nine sent to the forbidden area, there are only five ghosts left in my hand." Wang Chaling
"Five?" Zhang Qian touched his chin.

It's not that there are too few, but it feels like there are too many, and they are almost catching up with the devils he has imprisoned.

Wang Chaling thought Zhang Qian was dissatisfied, and then added: "I only have five on hand, but you can buy them from other places. I conservatively estimate that I can give you ten ghosts. It just takes a little preparation time."

He has a wide network of contacts, and it is not difficult to buy ghosts or ghost controllers from others.

Zhang Qian rejected Wang Chaling's kindness.

"No need to go to such trouble. I just said that I only need three compensations. One punishment, one mental loss, and one money to buy your life. I'll just pick three evil ghosts from you."

"I don't want other ghosts. I just need you to answer a few questions."

No matter how many ghosts there are, Zhang Qian can't eat them all in one go. Keeping a few more is just to have a better match when refining the elixir.

Rather than just letting a few weak ghosts gather ashes, it would be better to replace them with something more interesting.

"Okay, no problem." Wang Chaling agreed without hesitation.

Even though these questions may touch his core, he has no choice now.

Leaking a little information and giving away a few ghosts can earn Zhang Qian's understanding. This seems to be a very cost-effective deal for Wang Chaling.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Qian asked the first question.

"I want to know where the forbidden place you just mentioned is, what is your relationship with that place, and why are you so familiar with it?"

In fact, he wanted to know more about the principle of Wang Chaling's power, but that would definitely arouse Wang Chaling's vigilance.

Everything should be done step by step, and that place is a good starting point.

Sure enough, Wang Chaling only hesitated for a moment before confessing: "The so-called forbidden area is actually the ancestral home of my Wang family, which was built by my grandfather more than 100 years ago."

"It's just that I no longer live in my ancestral home. There have been strange things happening in that place since I can remember. It's like being entangled by some unknown curse. From time to time, servants will get lost in that ancient house. inside."

"Later, my father moved our family out and took advantage of the characteristics of the place to use it as a prison. Not only did he rarely return to the ancestral home, but he also strictly prohibited me from entering the ancestral home privately."

Wang Chaling revealed a lot of information in just a few words.

More than 100 years ago?That's not the Republic of China period.

This special moment immediately attracted Zhang Qian's attention.

It was a supernatural era that was suspected to have a large number of evil ghosts. Even now, traces of the Republic of China can still be seen in various supernatural events.Both the ghost post office and the tattoo parlor belong to that era. Zhang Qian has always wanted to explore places but has never started.

However, listening to Wang Chaling's words, their whole family has been dealing with supernatural beings, and this has been going on since the Republic of China.

what is this?A supernatural family?
No matter what, Wang Chaling must have some clues.

He immediately asked: "Since your family started in the Republic of China and continues to the present, do you have any clues about the Republic of China period? Supernatural events or ghost controllers will do. I am very interested in that era."

"I had no interest in the supernatural before, so I didn't know many things clearly. Regarding the Republic of China, I only vaguely remember my grandfather's story. I'll tell you as much detail as possible."

Wang Chaling closed her eyes, seeming to be lost in memories.

"The Wang family started to be exposed to the supernatural from my grandfather's generation. Although I have never met my grandfather, my father said that he was a lucky and unlucky person."

"He was very unlucky to be born in an era that can be called hell. The terror and density of ghosts at that time were much higher than they are now. Ordinary people could only survive in the cracks."

"But such an environment is also a breeding ground for the birth of strong men. My grandfather was very lucky to become a ghost controller. He struggled all the way and finally gained a firm footing."

"It's just that not long after, the supernatural power suddenly disappeared, like an extinguished fire, disappearing without a trace in a short period of time..."

"This is the Republic of China that I know. My father passed away suddenly and many things were not passed on to me, so I don't know much."

"Oh..." Zhang Qian still had some unfinished thoughts.

Although Wang Chaling didn't say much, he could already infer a lot of incredible things.

For example, why did the supernatural disappear suddenly, and why did it revive today, a hundred years later?

It just feels like a pity not to get more information.

As for Wang Chaling's statement that he failed to inherit many things, Zhang Qian didn't believe a word of it.

Not to mention various supernatural means, even ordinary people can retain information by taking notes, recording and other methods. How could Wang Chaling's parents not leave any clues?

But there was no need to ask to the end. His willingness to share information had already shown his sincerity.

Thinking of this, Zhang Qian quietly walked to the palm tree and released the restrictions on Wang Chaling's vision.

The sudden bright light made Wang Chaling squint his eyes and look at Zhang Qian thoughtfully, "I thought you would wait until you left before withdrawing the attack."

"If you are sincere in solving the problem, I will naturally respond accordingly." Zhang Qian said nonchalantly.

"In this world where supernatural beings are rampant, it is better to have many friends than many enemies. I never wanted to be your enemy. If you had let me enter Dadong, what happened today would never have happened."

"It was true that I was too reckless before." Wang Chaling reflected on his behavior.

It had been smooth sailing for so long that Wang Chaling really thought that the Wang family's curse was invincible, and he began to look down on all the ghost masters in the world.

Being defeated under Zhang Qian now can be regarded as a lesson. In the future, when facing unknown ghost masters, he must act carefully and never make the same mistakes as today.
