Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 36 Vacation? Impossible

"Are you sure? Cao Yang's evil spirit has revived?!"

On the phone, Cao Yanhua's tone was full of disbelief and shock.

"I'm not completely sure. When I delivered the information to him just now, I found the whole room was covered in blood, and Cao Yang was sleeping in a pool of blood. But what he told me was that it would take some time for the evil spirit to revive."

Zhao Jianguo became less and less confident as he spoke. He knew that most ghost riders were suspicious and did not trust others. More importantly, they would not easily reveal their status. Everyone knew that ghost riders had a short life span, and without exception, they joined the headquarters hoping to live longer with the help of the headquarters' resources.

But it’s different when you’re on the verge of recovery. You have no value, and no one can guarantee whether the headquarters will abandon you. So some ghost riders will deliberately conceal their status and try not to be abandoned by the headquarters. This kind of thing has happened before.

"It turns out that Cao Yang's condition has become so bad."

Cao Yanhua felt a little guilty, but he soon recovered.

"Then help him apply for a quota. Cao Yang has been with the headquarters for a month, and he has handled and participated in two incidents with A-level consequences, as well as a lot of intelligence of various sizes. This contribution should be enough to exchange for a quota."

Cao Yanhua carefully considered the wording and made sure there were no omissions or flaws before giving instructions to Zhao Jianguo.

“But the success rate of the experiment.”

Cao Yang read the text on the file carefully. The information did match the six ghosts in the list. There were exactly six files compiled by Old Qin, but the information about the last ghost was not provided.

"Yes, I understand. I'll do it right away."

The leader’s roar is always the biggest motivation for doing things. If Zhao Jianguo still doesn’t know what to do at this point, then his position as team leader will be over.

"There are a total of seven ghosts on the human skin list. The last ghost has no description or image, which means the last transaction is crucial. It may be directly related to whether I can get rid of the curse of the ghost peddler."

"Old Qin said that we can go to Dazhou City when the situation is most critical. After all, Zhang Dong's ancient residence is there, and Zhang Dong himself died when Yang Jian became an alien or even earlier, so I need to get there before Yang Jian. Only a living Zhang Dong can help me, which should take more than half a year."

"A thousand-year-old corpse. Its specific abilities and codename are unknown. It is a fierce ghost that was dug out from an ancient tomb and then disappeared. It is currently in the Horror Museum."

But Cao Yang didn't mind it. After all, it was normal for the headquarters to reassess his status after such an incident. Cao Yang was still lying on the bed, flipping through the files in his hand idly.

On the other side, Cao Yang was temporarily arranged to another lounge. The walls and doors here were made of gold and were extremely hard and would not be easily damaged. It was obvious that Cao Yang had really scared Zhao Jianguo today.

"Ghost Armor, unknown ability, located in the underground palace of Da'an City"

"Why would you care about the success rate at this point? Do you want to see such an outstanding Interpol and person in charge die like this?"

"A little girl who doesn't exist in reality. As long as you say the word 'ghost' in a specific area, this ghost will attack you. The current location is Donghai County."

"Not only that, this is the first time I've seen words on a human skin list, similar to the beginning of the human skin paper. The last person cursed by the peddler seemed to want to leave me some information, the key should be to steal the peddler's supernatural powers. But this may also be a trap. The possibility that the ghost peddler has wisdom is not low. Actively destroying the transaction will never have any good results. I need to find a loophole in the transaction."

"Dudu~!"

The voice of the satellite phone interrupted Cao Yang's thoughts. "Hey, Cao Yang, your uncle has applied for the quota for driving the second ghost for you. When you can't hold on any longer, you must tell me. Don't force yourself. I will let Professor Wang help you choose the most suitable ghost."

"Thank you, uncle. Don't worry. I'm still young and don't want to die so early."

"It's good that you have such an idea. How about this, you take a week off first, and for the next period of time you can go around and relax and have a good rest."

Of course Cao Yang could hear the concern in Cao Yanhua's words, which made him feel a rare warmth despite his somewhat withdrawn personality in his previous life.

"Thank you uncle."

"Okay, that's it. You should take a good rest and adjust your condition. You must live well!"

After going through multiple inspections and evaluation procedures, the headquarters confirmed that Cao Yang would not revive as a ghost in a short period of time, so they lifted the temporary control over him.

Otsu City. After three days and two nights, Cao Yang returned to this city.

"It's better not to delay the transaction with the peddler for too long. My uncle gave me a week off, so I can investigate the information in the files. The horror BWG is obviously a supernatural place, so it's not suitable for me for the time being. The ghost armor in Da'an City doesn't seem to be difficult to deal with, so maybe I can try this."

The target of the operation was quickly determined: the underground palace of Da'an City, target: Ghost Armor.

"Han Yu, help me compile a file of the supernatural events that have occurred in Da'an City in the past three months. The more detailed the better."

"clear."

You can always trust the intelligence capabilities of headquarters, of course, if no one deliberately deletes them.

While waiting, Cao Yang used his authority to check some information about the person in charge of Da'an City.

"The person in charge of Da'an City is Wen Zhong, codenamed Guijun, and Guijun's specific abilities have been concealed. However, the file records a ghost rider under Wen Zhong, who is also his successor. His name is Chen Xi, codenamed Guimian, but his abilities have also been concealed."

"That's right. Ghost riders are not fools. No one wants to have their intelligence read out by the enemy one day. No one is completely trustworthy except themselves."

Cao Yang was not surprised by Wen Zhong's behavior. He only had a name in the headquarters' files and didn't even have a code name.

"The paranormal files of Da'an City have been sorted out and will be sent to your mobile phone soon. Please check it."

Han Yu has always been efficient in his work, and Cao Yang is very satisfied with this operator.

"The Da'an City haunted house incident, the person in charge Wen Zhong has established a file; the Da'an City Forest Park, the forest without ghosts incident, the forest park has now been completely blocked; the Da'an City Cultural Palace incident, A-level, has not been resolved yet, and there is a risk of getting out of control at any time."

"Da'an City is not very peaceful. I hope I won't be involved in the Cultural Palace incident if I go there now. According to the information provided by Mr. Qin, Guijia is in the underground palace of Da'an City. The underground palace is just a nickname. Da'an City is such an ancient city. I wonder how many underground palaces there are."

"Let's go. Although Wen Zhong has lost contact, we still have Chen Xi in reserve to take over. Besides, I am now on leave approved by the deputy minister, so even if there is support, they may not find me."
