Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 65: Burning Flesh and Blood (Please recommend! Please read on!)
The result of the request came out quickly. Cao Yanhua agreed, but he needed to ask Li Jun for his opinion. However, the answer was obvious. Li Jun's character meant that he would not refuse such an action.

However, considering the particularity of this operation, the headquarters specially allocated a scapegoat to Li Jun to prevent him from being killed by the ghosts that appeared after his condition deteriorated after using the ghost den.

After getting the supplies, Li Jun set off. The two cities were very close to each other, and the three of them successfully reunited in less than an hour.

"Tell me what you think."

Li Jun's voice was hoarse and he was wearing sunglasses on his face, which reflected two green flames jumping in his eye sockets.

"It's not that I have any ideas. I just need you to search the city carefully for possible ghosts. If it's a ghost, Zhongshan and I will take action to deal with it."

"Of course, everything is based on the premise that you can hold on. It is also possible that the ghost painting is not in Otsu City. I understand your character, but this time you must not think of dying. After you die, you will only bring more trouble."

Cao Yang was quite familiar with Li Jun. His character of always fighting for his life was really a headache.

"Well, don't worry about that. The deputy minister and Professor Wang both reminded me before I came here that I must return alive."

Li Jun has become calm for the first time in his life, but I don't know if he can actually do it when he takes action.

Four streets, this is the limit of what Li Jun can do at this stage. The green ghost den covers the four streets next to the Beichen Building. The cold ghost fire jumps on the road and the rooftops, burning all the hidden spirits. Ordinary people who are accidentally caught in the ghost den are instantly transferred out by Li Jun.

"Go slowly first. You won't be able to bear it if you keep the ghost cave open for a long time."

At nine o'clock in the evening, most of the workers had returned home, and they went to bed early after a day of hard work. However, some workers were still working overtime, and what happened next made them feel weird.

“No problem here.”

A green light flashed, and the ghost den covered the four streets again in less than a minute.

Zhong Shan advised, Li Jun said nothing, but silently took back the ghost. He exuded an unpleasant burnt smell, like the smell of burning corpses, which was the erosion of his body by the ghost fire.

"It's time to act. Don't be stupid."

Three minutes later, Li Jun had used the ghost den to filter nearly twenty streets and did not find any supernatural existence.

"Okay, let's go back to Beichen Building to prepare containers and supplies, and then act at night. It's not a good idea to use the ghost cave in broad daylight."

Cao Yang and Zhong Shan stood beside Li Jun. The cold green ghost fire made their skin feel a little stinging, but Li Jun tried to restrain himself so as not to set the two of them on fire.

Cao Yang drove and took Zhong Shan and Li Jun back to Beichen Building. The headquarters had also sent three golden body bags, which were much lighter and more practical than golden coffins. In times of crisis, the ghost rider could hide in them himself.

Cao Yang reminded again, but Li Jun did not respond. He just silently opened the ghost den and expanded the influence range of the ghost fire.

"By the way, does that mirror work for you?"

Cao Yang suddenly asked. Li Jun was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted and said in a dry voice.

"It's useless. The mirror can only restore my body, but the erosion of the will-o'-the-wisp on me will not be eliminated. It can only make me look more normal on the surface."

"OK then."

Zhong Shan listened to the conversation between the two curiously. He was not very familiar with either of them and was too embarrassed to interrupt directly. "I have almost recovered. Let's continue."

Li Jun stood up, with a few strange wisps of white smoke still coming out of his body, and the burnt smell of flesh and blood had not yet dissipated.

"Take your time. There's no need to rush. The night is still long."

At dawn, in Wangji District, Otsu City, this was the last stop for the three of them. After a night of continuous hunting, Li Jun's condition was at its worst. His whole body was shaking, his facial features were twisted in pain, and the burnt smell on his body became stronger.

"How are you, can you still hold on?"

Zhong Shan asked with concern. The current Li Jun was completely different from the one who used the ghost den for the first time last night. He was really afraid that Li Jun could not hold on and the evil ghost would revive.

"I'm fine. I can hold on."

Li Jun was panting, and his breath was a bit cold, but it made Zhongshan feel a burning pain. The eerie green ghost cave spread out again, and the gray and white village around it quickly burned up. The gray and hazy color of the paper stained with ghost paintings was fading quickly, as if the paper was on fire.

"Ahem~!"

At this time, Li Jun started coughing uncontrollably, but what came out of his mouth were tiny dots of green flames, which looked very strange.

Seeing this, Cao Yang walked over silently, and the ghost den instantly opened up. A large piece of rotten and blackened flesh was forced into Li Jun's body, instantly causing the ghost fire to burn violently.

"what have you done?!"

Li Jun was startled. He thought Cao Yang was going to attack him, but a strange feeling coming from his body made him feel strange.

"The revival of the will-o'-the-wisp has been diverted?!"

"No, that's not right. Cao Yang stuffed a piece of strange flesh and blood into my body. This piece of flesh took the cost of the will-o'-the-wisp burning my body. Before this piece of flesh is burned, I can use the will-o'-the-wisp's magical power to the greatest extent!"

This discovery made Li Jun happy, but in fact, this was also what Cao Yang had just thought of. He took a piece of derived ghost meat from He Tianxiong's body. According to the assumption, the ghost meat would replace Li Jun's flesh and blood to support the burning of the ghost fire. During this period, Li Jun did not have to worry about revival, because the flesh and blood contaminated by evil spirits was definitely much more resistant to burning than the flesh and blood of ordinary people. Now it seems that his guess is correct.

“So there is such an operation.”

Although it was just a small action, Zhong Shan, who was standing by, was keenly aware of Cao Yang's unusualness. When he went to Dajing City to ask the headquarters to help him control the second ghost, Wang Xiaoming said that the key to controlling the second ghost is balance, or creating conflicts and contradictions between the two ghosts. Cao Yang did this very easily, which means that Cao Yang may have already mastered the core information of controlling the second ghost. Such a person is definitely worth making friends with.

"It's just a small discovery. Now it seems to be effective. After filtering this area, I can give you some more of this stuff. The will-o'-the-wisp is very fierce. You have to find Wang Xiaoming to help you control the second ghost as soon as possible. The idea is also in front of you. Find another ghost that can affect or even change your body. It can be a piece of skin, or it can be a wax figure, water, or ice."

Li Jun nodded. It was a very subtle feeling. Although he was not controlling the second ghost, his current state was similar to it.

"Hoo~!"

Two minutes later, the originally gray village returned to its original state, and the piled up paper ashes were completely burned by the ghost fire. However, Li Jun could feel that the piece of flesh on his chest was still the size of a fist and was not burned by the ghost fire.

Then, Li Jun took out the satellite phone and dialed.

"Otsu City, safe!"
