Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 164 Next Stop: Reality
The ghost bus began to move slowly, ruthlessly running over the group of corpses. Everyone in the car felt a little shaking, and at the same time, they felt a chill in their hearts.

"My goodness, this dump truck is really cruel. Not only did it hit a ghost, but it also ran over a dead body. Fortunately, there was no driver..."

Zhou Deng, who had taken advantage of the situation, denounced the bus's bad behavior with saliva flying, and did not mention at all that he had touched the evil ghost. However, no one dared to say anything. A person who could talk to a captain-level ghost rider was obviously not a simple person, and they did not want to cause trouble.

"Behave yourself, I'll take a break."

Cao Yang was indeed very tired. Ever since he entered the ancient house, his spirit had been extremely tense. The string in his heart was almost twisted into a steel wire. Even though he was the captain, he could not bear the long-term tension and depression. He needed to rest to relieve his mental fatigue.

After saying that, Cao Yang closed his eyes and prepared to rest, but he was not ready to rest yet. Instead, he was paying attention to the situation in forestry.

In the memory world, Beichen Building, Lin Ye has successfully controlled the ghost that appeared. Although he has not even mastered one tenth of the ghost's supernatural powers, it means that his consciousness can be completely restored.

Zhao Tong sat in the row in front of Cao Yang with Lin Ye's body. Cao Yang thought about it, and Lin Ye's consciousness was released and returned to his body.

At the same time, the number on the bus's electronic screen suddenly jumped from 3 to 2, which shocked some people who were alert and paying attention to their surroundings. They couldn't understand this strange phenomenon. If the bus arrived at the station and a ghost got off, it would be understandable, but now the ghost bus is still moving, but the number has changed...

"I'm dizzy. I'd better go to sleep."

Someone punched him, and then he really fell into a deep sleep.

Although his consciousness returned to his body, Lin Ye was not clear about what had happened during this period, and his physical condition was extremely poor. He was hit by the ghost bus and all the bones in his body were shattered. It would be an understatement to say that he had suffered a comminuted fracture. He looked like a human being, but he had actually been gone for quite some time.

Lin Ye tried to stand up, but his arms and legs went limp instantly. Even if the zombie took over his body, it could not change this fact.

"Captain, this..."

"Just sit down first. The ghost in your body has died anyway. You can use the ghost's den to travel temporarily. Whether you can stand up or not is not a big problem. I will find a way to help you recover after we go back."

After hearing what Cao Yang said, Lin Ye re-examined his condition and described it in four words: surprisingly good. The restlessness of the resurrected evil spirit was completely gone, and he could feel that there would be no problem even if he used the abilities of two ghosts at the same time, as if the ghost was shocked by something stronger.

"Frozen... What an apt name. The evil spirit is like a program and cannot respond to any external stimulation. Isn't it a frozen system?"

Lin Ye readily accepted this statement. As for the body with powder fractures, that was not a problem. The ghost could use it at will, so why would he worry about a body?
Lin Ye knew a little about this bus, so he didn't have any doubts about it.

Instead, Zhao Tong felt inexplicably surprised. The bus gradually suppressed the evil in his body. If possible, he even wanted to stay on the bus forever.

Of course, this idea can only satisfy one's mind. The fact that the bus can even drive over that haunted road is enough to show that this thing is even more terrifying than that road.

There were also countless strange places flashing outside the car window from time to time. It went without saying that this car was traveling through the supernatural places, and the dangers encountered during the journey must have far exceeded the experiences in reality, so he quickly dismissed this idea.

The lights were dim inside the moving ghost bus, and there was no scenery to speak of outside the windows. It was pitch black most of the time, with only a faint glimpse of a mysterious place from time to time. The graves and coffins inside were creepy to look at.

After an unknown amount of time, Cao Yang regained consciousness, but during this time, the bus strangely did not stop at any station.

"How long has it been?"

"It's been almost three hours. It's strange. The bus usually stops at the station every two hours, but today it's been three hours and there's still no movement."

Zhou Deng answered immediately, his tone full of doubt. "The fierce ghost road, there is a ghost every ten steps, and a fork in the road represents a supernatural place. The level of this incident needs to be raised. Fortunately, the possibility of getting out of control is not high. The haunted house in Dajing City is scary enough. If it weren't for my good luck, I would not be able to enter this underground world."

"I'm afraid that the fierce ghost road will completely invade reality, and then lead the ghosts from the underworld to invade us."

Cao Yang did not say anything, but reviewed the whole process of the incident in his mind.

"Oh my god, don't park here!"

Someone in the car exclaimed. Cao Yang turned his head and looked out the window. He found that the bus seemed to have left the area of ​​the Haunted Road. However, this mysterious place outside did not make him happy.
It was a cemetery. There were densely packed earthen graves on both sides of the road. The graves protruded like small hills.

Some of the graves had tombstones with a vague portrait of a person printed on them, but because the vehicle was moving and the light outside was dim, only a vague outline could be seen. Some of the graves were sunken, as if something had left the grave and could not support the raised earth mound.

At first glance, this piece of grave mound seems to have no end, extending all the way into the darkness in the distance. It is impossible to count how many there are, which makes people feel numb and scared. This is obviously a large cemetery.

Zhou Deng stuck his head out and looked forward, only to find that there was a road in the open space ahead leading directly to a small hill. In this dim and dark world, a small wooden house sat on the hill surrounded by tombs.

"There must be a lot of good stuff in that wooden house. Captain Cao, do you want to go and retrieve some treasures together?"

Cao Yang also looked in the direction he was looking, and further away at the other end of the road he found a fork in the road that was almost identical to the previous one. This discovery made Cao Yang feel inexplicably palpitating.

"Could it be that the cemetery is one of the exits of the Haunted Road?"

He didn't think about it any further. He had already successfully escaped from the Haunted Road anyway. There was no need to take the risk and delve into anything further.

The wooden house looked like it had been abandoned for a long time and had fallen into disrepair. It was built very roughly and had leaks on all sides, as if it would fall apart if kicked a few times.

However, Zhou Deng did not despise it, because he knew very well that real treasures are often buried in inconspicuous places, so he wanted to get Cao Yang to join him, because he was also worried about the dangers in the cemetery. If he could have a captain with him, it would definitely be much safer, and the probability of recovering good things would increase a lot.

But Cao Yang didn't appreciate it at all and refused it directly.

"If you want to die, I won't stop you, but the prerequisite is that you can stop this ghost bus in the carriage, and then make sure that after entering the cemetery or even the wooden house, you have a backup plan or a trump card to help you escape from this haunted place."

"Otherwise, I think there's not much need for another grave for you in this cemetery, so maybe I'll be kind enough to help you build a tombstone."

Zhou Deng became anxious immediately after hearing this.

"Captain Cao, don't say that. I have a feeling that the things in that wooden house can definitely help you and me turn danger into safety."

Cao Yang didn't have the time to listen to him, and immediately gave him a cold look. Seeing this, Zhou Deng had no choice but to shut up, but he was still very envious of the wooden house.

Half an hour later, they finally passed this endless cemetery, and the ghost riders in the car finally felt relieved.

In front of the bus, a city suddenly appeared in the distance. The city was emitting bright and clear light, and it seemed that a very distinctive landmark building was about to come into view.
