The Mysterious Resurrection of the Past of the Republic of China

Chapter 5 Familiar people
Noisy sounds can easily make people uneasy, while too much silence can make people frightened and uneasy.

Zhang Dong glanced around in surprise and ignored the two ghost masters' inquiries because he couldn't hear what they were saying.

He opened the door and looked at the gray sky and the dense forest with overgrown weeds, but could not hear a sound, and a feeling of uneasiness gradually emerged in his heart.

Zhang Dong felt that this should be the price of using the law ghost ability.

Although the cost of being unable to hear sounds was a bit puzzling, he quickly analyzed the essential reason.

His ghost's resurrection is not the same as others', such as pain, erosion, etc., but it loses its own rules.

Obviously 'hearing' is a law. After he stole the law of 'making a wish', he also lost the law of 'hearing'.

Is this the law of conservation of law?
If you gain one pattern, you will lose another pattern, and the total number remains the same?
Assume that you have a total of one hundred rules. After stealing the 'make a wish' rule, it becomes one hundred and one. This obviously exceeds the upper limit, so you will randomly lose one, so that the total number is still one hundred.

When the rule of making a wish expires, the previously lost rule will return.

Zhang Dong's mouth twitched, and he was amused by his guess, but he still felt that this guess was very likely, so he decided to test it.

Make a lasting wish and see when it expires, and if it does, see if your deafness goes away.

"I said, the fallen leaves in front of me will be suspended in mid-air."

He stared at a withered yellow leaf on the ground and made a wish.

Sure enough, the ability to make a wish still existed, and the leaves floated up in some incomprehensible way, suspended one meter above the ground.

Zhang Dong's eyes narrowed and he stared at the leaf carefully.

Ten seconds and 30 seconds. 1 minute and 2 minutes.
Time passed by minute by minute, and his hearing loss continued.

When the time came to 3 minutes, the leaves suddenly fell uncontrollably and fell to the ground without moving.

At the same time, the tinnitus that had lasted for several minutes disappeared, and all the sounds flooded into Zhang Dong's ears again at this moment.

He smiled knowingly and immediately understood the price of using his ability, as well as the time when he could steal the rules.

The price is to randomly lose one of its own original laws, such as 'hearing', 'vision', 'touch', and even 'life'.

It’s just that the price is really expensive.
Zhang Dong's face turned dark. When he was lucky, he could even ignore the cost.For example, if you get the rules of 'eating' and 'drinking water', you can just ignore them, but if you get the rules of 'breathing' and 'heartbeat' randomly, it will be miserable.

After all, the former can be tolerated without it, and there is no harm in not eating or drinking for a while.But if it's the latter, losing your heartbeat and breathing for a few minutes can really be fatal.

He shook his head, no longer thinking about this kind of alternative evil ghost's resurrection, and instead analyzed the length of time for stealing the rules,

For an almost S-level wish ghost, he can steal a pattern of about 10 minutes, which is considered a pretty good time.If it is an ordinary B-level or C-level ghost, this time may be longer.

This is good news.

And the ability of the law ghost goes beyond that, except for stealing laws and passively ignoring them.There are also abilities to influence rules, change rules, and create rules. These abilities may have even more shocking performances.

I still need to explore slowly in the future.
After withdrawing his thoughts, Zhang Dong took a deep breath and returned to the house.

"What happened to you just now?" the woman asked immediately after seeing him come back.

"It's okay, I suddenly felt a little breathless just now." The corners of Zhang Dong's mouth raised slightly, and then he asked in a questioning tone, "By the way, I just heard what you said about ghost controllers, do you mean people like you? ?I think you seem to have some abilities that are different from ordinary people, and I am a little curious." Zhang Dong forced himself to finish, feeling very impressed with his acting skills.
The two people's expressions changed when they heard this, and they looked at each other with hesitant expressions. There was even a trace of fear in the man's eyes.

Zhang Dong immediately understood what they meant. Most ghost controllers would keep their abilities secret to prevent others from targeting them. This is a very common phenomenon.

And I mentioned it casually because I just wanted to see if the ghost they controlled had appeared in the original work.

He hurriedly smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. It's okay not to say anything. Anyway, I am an ordinary person. I will most likely not be exposed to these things again in the future."

The female ghost controller said: "Actually, I can't tell you. After all, I won't live long. I became a ghost controller. Although I can use the abilities of ghosts, I also suffer from the ghost's resurgence. I only have a few months left in my life." . And when I first met you, I felt that your calmness and rationality were different from ordinary people, and you were very talented in this area, so it doesn’t hurt to tell you more."

"I believe that if you become a ghost master, you will definitely become a ruthless character."

Zhang Dong's mouth twitched, who serious person would advise others to become ghost controllers?Do you think life is too long?
But then he thought about it and roughly guessed some of her characteristics.

Although she looks scary and exudes a strange aura, it can be seen that she is a young girl in her 20s, with a kind heart, and she was thinking about the world even before she died.

Such people, even if they become evil spirits, they have to think about other people.

He is a very ambitious and dedicated person.

"Then what is your ability to resurrect people?" Zhang Dong asked straight to the point.

The woman pondered for a moment and said: "I don't know what to call it, and I can't remember exactly when I controlled it. Even the feeling of the ghost's resurrection is different from others."

"About a month ago, I accidentally dug out a photo from an abandoned box at home. The photo was very blurry. There were three people standing in front of a yard. I recognized that yard as my home. The three people inside were me and My parents."

"The strange thing is that our family has never had any photos taken, and we can't afford them at all. Only the dignitaries in the county are willing to take family photos, but that photo suddenly appeared."

"I didn't take it to heart at first because my parents died early and this was the first time I saw them after their deaths, so I cried on the bed holding the photo and fell asleep without knowing it."

"When I woke up, I found myself standing in front of the yard in the photo. My parents were on both sides of me. They looked at me kindly. I couldn't believe my eyes. I felt blurred when I was about to touch them. For a moment, I went back to the house where I slept, and the photos in my hand were gone.”

"Since then, I have found that I can go back to that moment through items with special meanings such as photos, relics, etc., but every time I go back, my body gets worse, as if there is something inside me. He woke up in his body, and it wasn’t until he met Li Shao later that he learned that he had become a ghost controller.”

Zhang Dong listened patiently to what she had to say, and gained some understanding of the ghost she controlled.

This is a ghost that can invade a certain time in the past, but it requires media, such as photos of a certain time, commonly used items, etc.

And this ability can be used on others. For example, when another male ghost controller was killed by the wish ghost, she used this ability to resurrect him.

But why does this ghost look familiar?
He looked slightly moved and asked, "What's your name?"

"Meng Xiaodong."

The woman seemed to be saying very ordinary words, but these three words pressed on Zhang Dong's chest like a huge boulder, making him breathless for an instant.

Meng Xiaodong?
Meng Xiaodong, one of the Seven Elders, is actually here?
One of the seven elders with unlimited invasion and unlimited death?

On the first day after he traveled through time, they met by chance?
He was a little unbelievable. It took him a full ten seconds to regain his emotions, and his eyes moved to her body to look at her again.

At this time, she was not the hunched old woman in the original novel, but a young woman with a delicate face and slender figure.
