Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 95: Supernatural Events Stealing the House
Cao Yang looked at the double container that held the ghost blood, feeling a little worried for a moment. He thought about the resources he had at hand, trying to find one of them to deal with the blood corpse.

"Black Jade Wind Chime!"

After a moment, Cao Yang thought of the scene of the first delivery. When the wind chimes rang, his consciousness became a little dazed, and the sound seemed to contain some kind of supernatural power, which forcibly attracted his attention.

"So, the black jade wind chime should have a supernatural power that targets consciousness, and it seems to have an attractive effect, just like the white ghost candle."

Cao Yang stroked a small container in his hand, which contained the twelve small wind chimes paid by the ghost peddler.

"Want to try it? It's a good opportunity to test the supernatural power and function of the wind chimes. But the risk is that the ghost blood may get out of control and form a blood pool like in the original book."

"No, it's too dangerous. I don't have the ability to deal with the ghost blood or the blood pool now. Moreover, the ghost blood is my biggest trump card and I can't afford to lose it. As for the black jade wind chime, let's assume for the time being that it has the ability to attract ghosts and some kind of consciousness."

Cao Yang doesn't like taking risks, especially when the risks seem to outweigh the benefits.

"Wait, something's wrong."

Suddenly, Cao Yang sensed danger. The light outside the window became dim and yellow at some point. This change was obviously abnormal, because if there were any meteorological changes or extreme weather, Han Yu would definitely remind him.

"problem occurs!"

Cao Yang quickly closed all the windows and the office door. After all, this office was completely gold-plated to block out the supernatural.

"The supernatural has already affected the Beichen Building, which means that things are unusual."

Sure enough, in less than a minute, Cao Yang received a call from Hu Mingtao.

"Detective Cao, emergency!"

Hu Mingtao sounded very nervous, and it was obvious that something supernatural had definitely happened in Otsu City.

"Don't be in a hurry, take your time."

Cao Yang had a serious expression on his face. He dialed a satellite phone at the same time and asked Han Yu to prepare to record first-hand intelligence.

"Beichen Building, there is something wrong with Beichen Building! From the outside, the entire Beichen Building is covered by a layer of dark yellow shadow, and the entire building is gradually becoming blurred, as if it is being erased."

Hu Mingtao's tone was horrified. A few minutes ago, he was about to go to the building to do some work, but he didn't expect to encounter such a weird thing. Although he had never come into direct contact with supernatural events, the scene before him was obviously not something that human power could do, so he contacted Cao Yang immediately.

"Activate the highest level of alert. With Beichen Building as the center, all four surrounding streets are blocked. Beichen Building is completely blocked, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. If anyone shows resistance, you can choose to kill them on the spot without asking for my permission."

"Also, use my authority to mobilize all of Otsu City's gold reserves, prepare sufficient gold containers, and some specially made gold weapons. I'll be in the building and will try to resolve this incident."

Cao Yang gave orders in an orderly manner. From Hu Mingtao's words, it was not difficult to analyze that the ghost was in the building at the moment, and the current scope of influence had not spread and was limited to Beichen Building.

"Is this what Chen Yi wants me to do for him?"

Suddenly, Cao Yang thought of the phone call from Chen Yi just now. There were too many things wrong, and it was hard not to be suspicious.

"It shouldn't be Chen Yi. He has no reason to cause a supernatural event in Otsu City. The outbreak of the incident was somewhat coincidental. Chen Yi had just left, and I took over Otsu City again. Less than a day later, a supernatural event occurred, and it happened to affect the building where I work..."

Cao Yang did not leave the safe house. He still had too little information and could only make a preliminary judgment that it was a supernatural event. "I still have to go out and take a look. Lack of information in supernatural events is a fatal thing, and I can't let the incident ferment."

The world outside the window became darker, somewhat similar to the scene when the ghost peddler's cargo box was opened. However, the difference was that there were no strange figures here, and the environment seemed to have become dead silent without anyone noticing.

Wearing the hand that could only conceal his breath and a body bag, Cao Yang opened the door as quickly as possible, went out, and then closed the office door.

However, the entire building was not completely silent. At least after Cao Yang left his floor, he saw many ordinary people who originally worked here.

"Hu Mingtao, report the current situation."

"The dim yellow shadow has not spread, and even seems to have shrunk. I don't know why this change has occurred. The shadow now is more like a membrane that tightly wraps around the North Star Building."

Hu Mingtao was much calmer at this moment, and was making intensive arrangements according to Cao Yang's ideas. Now the Beichen Building had been surrounded by a group of special personnel armed with real guns and live ammunition.

At the same time, in a factory in Otsu City, machines were running hotly and boxes of gold bars were being melted. They received orders from above to urgently produce a large number of gold utensils.

"Throw the bodies of the people who were shot back into the building. Remember to bring your gold equipment."

Cao Yang was worried and gave another warning. He could feel that this supernatural incident was very special, and the biggest doubt was that no one had died so far.

"clear."

Hu Mingtao hung up the phone and contacted the headquarters at the same time. This completely unknown supernatural incident that happened in Otsu City attracted the attention of many people.

At the headquarters, Deputy Minister Cao Yanhua has received the information from Otsu City, which makes him very worried about Cao Yang's safety.

"In terms of the scope of impact, this incident has reached the C-level standard, but no one can be sure whether the incident has the potential to continue to ferment and to what extent."

"It's been less than three days since the Dachang City starving ghost incident ended, and Dajin City, the gateway to Dajing, has also run into problems. Supernatural events are happening more and more frequently. The supernatural era is coming, and in the future, only ghost riders will have a say in the world."

In the office, the think tank of the headquarters was analyzing the current situation to Cao Yanhua, but he could not hear a word.

"Have you investigated the shadow that shrouds the Beichen Building?"

Cao Yanhua, who was pacing, suddenly asked.

"It is still unclear at this time. Judging from its manifestation, it is very similar to a ghost den, but it is also different from our previous research and understanding of ghost dens."

"How much supplies can the headquarters mobilize now? Otsu City must not have any problems. Once a chain reaction occurs, even Dajing City and the headquarters may be lost."

"We still have the ghost candles and the surrogate dolls in stock, but according to the rules, these need to be exchanged by the person in charge with merit."

The chief of the think tank said that they only put forward their suggestions from the most objective and reasonable perspective, and as for decision-making, that is the deputy minister's job.

"We can't worry about so many things now. Rules are dead, but people are alive. Mobilize a ghost candle and a surrogate doll as quickly as possible and send them to Otsu City. Tell Cao Yang to solve this supernatural incident as quickly as possible!"
