Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 42 General trend
"Li Jun is gone, you can move now. I don't have the habit of snooping into other people's privacy, just pretend I don't exist."

Cao Yang found a place to sit down, and at this moment the shadow puppets strangely did not come closer, but instead rushed towards Chen Xi.

Chen Xi did not respond, but silently took out a videotape and a projector, not knowing what he was going to do. Of course, Cao Yang did not care. A ghost rider would not easily offer to take the initiative to deal with a ghost unless he had other intentions.

But this is Chen Xi's secret, everyone has secrets, so Cao Yang tactfully did not ask any further questions.

"Ghost armor, mummies, and bronze spears are all ghosts. The mummies' ability is to elbow, and the force is extremely great. An ordinary person would surely die if they were elbowed. Armor has extremely strong defense and isolation capabilities, allowing the evil ghosts wearing armor to isolate themselves from the influence of ghost dens, and even to enter and exit ghost dens freely. As for the bronze spear, it can penetrate evil ghosts, but this is only the simplest use, and the cost is not clear."

"Maybe we can ask Wang Xiaoming to help with the research."

Cao Yang was indeed not paying attention to Chen Xi's actions. He was recalling his own experiences.

"I wouldn't dare use the bronze spear if it stayed in my hands. If I want to maximize the benefits, I should hand it over to the headquarters as a supernatural item and exchange it for more valuable resources, such as a ghost candle or a scapegoat."

"After the captain's plan is implemented, I can still use my merits to exchange for the bronze spear. Resources can only be useful in the hands of those who need them. A supernatural weapon with transparent intelligence is valuable, otherwise no one would dare to use it."

"If there is a chance, it would be best to strip the armor off the mummy. There is no mummy on the list. Elbow-killing the mummy and handing it over to the headquarters is another real achievement. Shouldn't I be given three or five ghost candles?"

"Did you resolve the incident at the Cultural Palace?"

"Hopefully it's not too late to remedy the situation now."

Chen Xi mechanically repeated the process of replaying the videotape. The gas mask obscured his facial features and expressions. At this moment, he looked like a real evil spirit.

"Has the source of the evil spirit been resolved?"

Wen Zhong's heart was filled with bitterness.

Li Jun said while holding the satellite phone, with a relieved expression on his face.

"It took only two days to destroy the city like this. If I were here, maybe it wouldn't have happened."

The strange mold instantly covered an area, Wen Zhong's den of ghosts was unfolded, and he disappeared out of thin air at the bus stop.

In Da'an City, an abandoned bus appeared out of nowhere on the road and then stopped at a bus stop on the side of the road. A figure in a leader's uniform got off the bus. He was Wen Zhong, the leader of Da'an City.

Cao Yang was immersed in his own thoughts and did not notice Chen Xi's actions.

The night turned to dawn, and a night passed. Li Jun waited anxiously outside the Cultural Palace. However, the real-time picture from the headquarters showed that the shadow puppets in Da'an City were stopping. At first, it was just a small part, and soon all the shadow puppets on the screen were frozen in place. This news quickly reached Li Jun.

Wen Zhong asked.

Wen Zhong, who was cleaning the shadow puppets, murmured in a low voice.

When dawn comes, all the shadow puppets lose their activity and become ordinary shadow puppets pasted on flat surfaces all over the city.

"It looks like they succeeded. I will observe for a while longer, arrange for support and rescue in advance, and prepare to enter the city."

He provided the files of the Cultural Palace incident, so Wen Zhong naturally knew the source of the incident. He immediately used the ghosts to rush to the Cultural Palace, but saw Li Jun standing outside the gate, and there were three golden boxes beside him. Needless to say, they were definitely three real evil spirits.

"Who took action? Li Jun? Or is there another expert at the headquarters?"

"It's not me. Another ghost is imprisoned here. Cao Yang and Chen Xi are inside. They should be the ones who successfully restricted the source of the shadow puppets."

Li Jun answered truthfully.

"Chen Xi, Cao Yang" Wen Zhong naturally knew Chen Xi. Although this ghost rider was his deputy, he knew that the other party's ability was likely better than his. The reason he did this was simply because he wanted an official identity.

"Cao Yang. This name is a little unfamiliar. I guess he is the helper brought by Li Jun."

Wen Zhong didn't think much about it. Since Li Jun was confident that the two of them could work together, he certainly had no reason to doubt it.

Not long after, Chen Xi and Cao Yang walked out side by side, but strangely, neither of them had a container in their hands.

"Did the source ghost run away?"

Li Jun asked doubtfully.

"That's not the case. We just used some special means to restrict it. The incident can be declared resolved."

Chen Xi said calmly, and it didn't sound like he was going to elaborate.

"Okay, then I'll take the trouble to restrain that ghost. If one day you are too busy to do anything else, you can ask the headquarters for help."

Li Jun did not dwell on this matter. As long as the purpose of restricting the evil spirits was achieved, the headquarters would not force the person in charge to hand over the imprisoned evil spirits in the incident.

"Thank you very much for the kindness of headquarters."

Chen Xi said a perfunctory polite remark and then left. Wen Zhong also temporarily left on the pretext of dealing with the aftermath.

"You're not in good condition. Do you want to come back to Dajing City with me? Professor Wang may be able to help you."

Li Jun simply packed his luggage and asked Cao Yang.

"Wang Xiaoming?"

Cao Yang was hesitant. If it was Wang Xiaoming, maybe there was a way to solve the physical problem. But Cao Yang didn't like dealing with smart people, especially people like Wang Xiaoming. Any of your words might be analyzed by him.

"Okay, let's go to Dajing City. There are some things that we can discuss with the headquarters."

However, Cao Yang finally agreed. The worsening of his physical condition would intensify the gravity ghost's restlessness, which was not a good thing. Balance was inherently fragile, and only a system crash would allow him to temporarily stop worrying about resuscitation.

"lets go."

The headquarters' helicopter had already landed nearby, and Cao Yang dragged his broken body onto the plane.

At the same time, in Dazheng City, there was no person in charge, but there was a private ghost-controlling club that was tacitly approved by the headquarters - the Xuanjing Club. It was not that the headquarters was really confident in letting private ghost-controlling people manage a city, but that they were really short of manpower and had no time to take care of it.

Although Cao Yanhua had thought about incorporating the club, every negotiation ended in failure. The headquarters was unable to refute the questions raised by the other party, and finally they simply ignored it. At least this Xuan Jing Club was really solving the supernatural events in Dazheng City, so Cao Yanhua simply turned a blind eye.

The Xuanjing Club was having a meeting at the moment. Sitting in the main seat was an octogenarian with sagging skin, wrinkles and age spots all over his face, and half-open eyes, which made people wonder if he would suddenly die in the next second. Sitting in the second seat were ten young men and women, most of whom were in their early twenties.

"Uncle Lu, what is the purpose of today's meeting? Please don't fall asleep."

The person who spoke was a young man with a smile on his face. He had a handsome appearance, and his every move revealed the temperament of a noble man.

The old man opened his eyes indifferently as if awakened, and said calmly:

"The great trend is coming, it will be born!"
