Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 20 The Invaded

"Hey, brother, why are you so fierce? Believe it or not, I will complain to you after we get out."

Luo Qin is a spoiled princess at home and she can't stand someone speaking to her in that tone.

"boom!"

There were wisps of white smoke coming out of the muzzle of Cao Yang's gun, which had not yet dissipated.

"Ahhhhh! The investigation specialist who turned left is the most vicious!"

Luo Qin screamed like crazy, and the three men next to her subconsciously covered their heads and ears, unable to bear such a sound.

The next second, Cao Yang's gun was already against Luo Qin's chin. In the face of life and death, fear finally prevailed, and Luo Qin closed his mouth in fear. The gunshot just now proved that what Cao Yang was holding was a real weapon, not a toy. If you were hit by it, you would really die.

"Stupid woman, shut up if you don't want to die. If you attract ghosts here, I will definitely be the first one to collapse."

Cao Yang threatened in a deep voice that in his previous life he had only witnessed the fairy's highlights many times on the Internet, but he didn't expect to actually meet her after traveling through time.

"Then why didn't you think of going into the inn?"

As he spoke, Cao Yang shook the gun in his hand again.

"I ask, you answer. I want you to testify against each other. If anyone tells a lie, then be prepared to see the King of Hell."

The men nearby had never seen such a brutal scene. When did someone dare to threaten the little fairy? For a moment, the three of them were stunned by Cao Yang.

No one pointed out the mistake, which means Luo Qin did not lie. Of course, it is also possible that the four of them colluded to deceive Cao Yang.

"Very good. Second question. What did the four of you do during these eight hours? Tell me everything in detail. Don't leave out any details. You tell me."

It was a threat, a naked threat, but it was also the most effective method. The four of them nodded frantically.

"I remember I suddenly appeared here after turning on the computer."

"It was almost eight hours, and during that time I didn't see anyone except the three of them."

Cao Yang pointed his gun at Chen Zongtao, who replied tremblingly:

There is nothing wrong with Luo Qin's answer.

He looked calm, as if he was not intimidated by Cao Yang.

"I was grabbed by a black hand when I was removing my makeup."

This time, the gun was pointed at Luo Qin.

"The third question is, how did you get here? Tell us one by one, starting with Ji Yuan."

Ji Yuan's skin was a little dark and he looked very thin. There was a piece of cloth wrapped around his wrist, which looked like it was torn from his shirt.

"The first question is how long have you been here? You answer it, and the others can testify at any time."

The other three also nodded in agreement.

"I didn't do anything. I just wandered around and walked around this inn for several circles. When I got tired, I rested on the spot. After I rested, I continued walking."

“Come on, this inn looks so eerie and scary. What if there’s a ghost inside? The three of them aren’t the brave types, so we simply didn’t go in and just kept exploring around the inn.”

"I saw my phone wallpaper and it suddenly appeared here."

This is Chang Yiming’s answer.

"When I came back from the night shift, I saw a hand reaching out from a window of a residential building in the rearview mirror and it grabbed me here." Chen Zongtao finally answered.

The answers of the four people were exactly the same as the information collected by Qian Guangming, without any problem. However, in supernatural events, the biggest problem is the lack of problems, and Cao Yang did not completely believe what they said.

"One last question. You've been wandering around for so long. How many rooms are there in this inn?"

"36!"

"35."

Only Ji Yuan gave a different answer.

"Oh? Can you tell me why it's 35, while the other three are all 36?"

Cao Yang stared at Ji Yuan with a sneer, his hand ready to pull the trigger at any time.

"Because there is a room reserved for the boss."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Yuan was stunned. He didn't know why he knew all this, and the words just now came out almost without thinking, as if the answer had already been engraved in his mind.

"Because you've been haunted."

Cao Yang fired without hesitation, and the bullet left a bloody hole in Ji Yuan's forehead, and the blood soon covered his cheek. But Ji Yuan did not die, but opened his mouth in astonishment.

"How could I be invaded by a ghost? There are no ghosts in this world."

Luo Qin and the other two were completely terrified. Ji Yuan was shot in the head but he didn't die and was still talking. This was obviously not something a human could do, right?

Ji Yuan is a ghost! Luo Qin shuddered at the thought of a ghost staying with him for eight hours.

"How could you easily spot a ghost that can invade people? If it weren't for the wound on your wrist, I wouldn't have noticed you."

The death card was thrown by Cao Yang, stuck tightly to Ji Yuan's body, and began to absorb the blood in his body. The invisible spiritual shackles restricted his hands and feet, and then Luo Qin and the other two felt their legs suddenly become extremely heavy.

"Snapped!"

The wooden sign attached to Ji Yuan suddenly fell to the ground with a dull sound.

"Boom boom boom!"

Also falling was Ji Yuan's head.

"It's crazy, it's all crazy. One investigator said there was a ghost, and the other one cooperated with him to do a head-dropping trick."

Chang Yiming squatted on the ground in despair, suffering a great mental blow.

"Damn it, this ghost is very special. It is a spiritual being. Whoever it attaches to becomes a ghost, but it does not have the immortality of ghosts."

Cao Yang walked forward and tore open the cloth on Ji Yuan's wrist, revealing a wound that was only one finger wide but went through the entire wrist. But strangely, there was no blood flowing out of the wound, and there was no flesh and blood in the wrist. Ji Yuan's whole body was light and weightless, like a hollow paper man.

"The death card pierced the wrist of the black ghost hand. The ghost invaded Ji Yuan's consciousness, causing Ji Yuan to think that his wrist was also injured, so he applied a simple bandage. However, he did not realize that he was dead. Even his flesh and blood were taken away by the evil ghost, leaving only an empty piece of human skin."

"Killing Ji Yuan just now may have disrupted the balance here. The ghost abandoned Ji Yuan's identity and started wandering. It's not safe outside anymore. Idealistic ghosts are difficult to deal with. At least I can't handle them now. There is also the risk of invasion."

Luo Qin, Chen Zongtao and Chang Yiming were so scared that they were at a loss. Ghost, a person who could still speak after being shot in the head, their worldview had collapsed.

"Stand up. The ghost is wandering around here. Come with me to the inn and you might have a chance to survive. Of course, if you want to wait to die outside, I won't stop you."

Cao Yang had no sympathy or pity. If he was caught in an ordinary supernatural event, he might have saved these ordinary people if he had the energy to do so. But this was a supernatural place, and Cao Yang himself didn't dare to say he could survive, let alone save people. He needed ordinary people to test the rules. In other words, they were cannon fodder.
