Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 121 The Crisis of Dajing City
Dasu City, Oriental Building, this is where Ah Hong's office is located. After leaving the tattoo parlor, she brought Cao Yang back here.

"What happened to the previous owner of the Horror Tattoo Parlor you mentioned?"

Cao Yang asked.

"It's hard to say. The Horror Tattoo Shop is not originally for the living. It is a shop for tattooing ghosts."

"As far as I know, the history of the Horror Tattoo Parlor can be traced back to the Republic of China period. The previous owner should also be from the Republic of China, a stunning beauty."

"I don't know her name. I only know from the clues I got that she always wore a red cheongsam and a pair of red high heels. Even her boudoir was dominated by red. The clothes hanger and the ghost line were her legacy. I just inherited them by chance."

Ah Hong thought for a moment and did not hide the information.

Through Ah Hong's description, Cao Yang already knew the identity of the boss. The red cheongsam and red high heels were definitely those of Zhang Youhong, one of the Seven Elders of the Republic of China.

"Are you going back to Dajing City now?"

Ah Hong asked with a smile.

"Don't go back yet, I have some things to deal with."

Are you kidding? The headquarters far away in Dajing City is almost in danger now. If I'm not mistaken, Cao Yang had just arrived in Dasu City when the training base was blocked by the ghost catcher's den. Going back now is no different from committing suicide.

"Oh? I received a call from Professor Wang. As a candidate for the captain program, are you sure you don't want to go back?"

Ah Hong shook the satellite phone in her hand, which looked like a mobile phone, and said to Cao Yang.

Cao Yang then took out his satellite phone, and sure enough, there were many urgent messages urging him to rush to Dajing City overnight.

"You must be joking. In front of you, what do I, a so-called captain with a lot of pretentiousness, count for?"

Cao Yang didn't dare to show off in front of Ah Hong.

Captain? Don't be ridiculous. He is a serious alien. If he just stands there and lets himself be beaten, he can't kill himself. Instead, he will play himself into a ghost resurrection. The so-called captain is just someone Ah Hong doesn't like.

"Then you should stay in Dasu City for now. I will go and prepare hush money for you in the next two days. Please help me take care of this city first."

Ah Hong sounded a little nonchalant, and seemed to be thinking about something while she was talking.

"Then excuse me."

Cao Yang did not reject Ah Hong's kindness. The other party arranged the most luxurious hotel for him in Dasu City. Of course, this was a piece of cake for a city leader.

At Pingjiang Hotel, Cao Yang stayed in the presidential suite arranged by Ah Hong. He lay on the bed with a calm expression, thinking about some details of the ghost messenger incident in the original novel.

"In the original novel, Cao Yang should have participated in the ghost messenger incident, but there is no detailed description of his role in the incident. So, in this case, my presence or absence does not make much difference."

"During this time, I can take advantage of the mechanism to capture Jing quietly. The transaction with the ghost peddler is the biggest trouble. I can't go to the trouble of participating in the ghost messenger incident again."

Thinking of this, Cao Yang took out the satellite phone. After the starving ghost incident was over, she asked Han Yu to sort out the files of Donghai County. She has never neglected this work. The supernatural files about Donghai County were still being updated before she left.

"The Quiet Incident happened in Donghai County. It was a supernatural incident reported by a responsible person before his death. There is no information about the pattern, degree of terror, and degree of harm of the evil spirit."

"It's you." The file of the Jing Quiang incident has been created, and it's just in time for Cao Yang to go over and solve it, and then completely seal off the county town.

"Let's wait for Ah Hong's hush money to arrive. I think the hush money from the aliens won't be much different."

Meanwhile, the Horror Tattoo Parlor.

After separating from Cao Yang, Ah Hong returned here again. After all, this is the formal place for making tattoos.

However, Ah Hong's expression was cold and indifferent, as if covered with a layer of frost. She looked around, as if she was looking for something.

"Human skin, ghost... It's really hard to get hush money from this little guy. Never mind, I'll just treat it as practice."

Ah Hong spread out her palms and scarlet silk threads quickly shot out. Not long after, a corpse tied up like a dumpling by the ghost thread appeared in front of her.

"Since the ghost skin that escaped came from you, there is no need for you to exist now. This tattoo parlor will be closed for the time being and will no longer operate."

It turned out that the thing wrapped in the ghost thread was a ghost, and the ghost skin was the skin of this ghost, but now Ah Hong seemed to have other ideas about it.

"Fizz!"

The ghost lines were like poisonous snakes, weaving in and out of the ghost's body. Soon, a red ghost appeared in front of Ah Hong. She didn't know if the color was dyed red by the ghost lines or if the ghost itself was just that weird.

As Ah Hong made a hand gesture of merging her palms, the ghost lines that were interspersed in the ghost's body instantly tightened, and the originally three-dimensional ghost was gradually changing into a two-dimensional form. Not only the appearance, but also the size of the ghost was changing. In less than two minutes, the ghost lines compressed it into the size of a palm.

Then, Ah Hong pulled out another complete human skin from somewhere. On this human skin was a male face with a hideous and vicious expression. After seeing Ah Hong, his mouth moved slightly, and it was estimated that he did not say anything nice.

"You have to be prepared to be treated like a human. You can't even deal with a skinning ghost, so what else do you want to do to me?"

There was a gleam of ruthlessness in Ah Hong's beautiful eyes, and she spoke in a cold tone.

This human skin is not ordinary, but the skin of a ghost rider, and it still retains some of the supernatural powers he had before he was skinned.

"Accept your fate. There is a ghost rider who can control ghosts and make them scream. Now his skin is hanging in my tattoo parlor. Do you think you are better than him?"

Hearing this, the human skin's expression was no longer ferocious, but became numb, as if he had accepted his fate.

The scarlet thread wrapped around the suppressed skinless evil spirit and began to entangle itself around the human skin. Stitch by stitch, the skinless evil spirit was turned into a human skin tattoo bit by bit like ink.

"My skills are not bad. It seems that I am quite talented."

At dawn, Ah Hong unfolded a complete human skin with her hands, on which there was a lifelike evil ghost tattoo.

"It's a bargain for you. This is my first time getting a tattoo."

Ah Hong took out a golden container, folded the human skin and put it inside.

At the same time, in Dajing City, at an experimental base.

A coffin-shaped, ink-black darkness enveloped an area. The darkness was like a thick haze or a black wall, blocking all roads in all directions.
