Mysterious resurgence

On the dim road, a small candle with a strange aura was held above a person's head, drifting towards it from far to near at a constant speed.

The candle flame swayed unsteadily in the cool night breeze, as if it was about to go out at any moment, but I don't know why every time it was about to go out, the flame ended up burning again tenaciously.

Zhong Shan was walking alone at the moment. The road in front of him seemed to be endless, extending into the dark depths in the distance.

And with the ghost candle on his head, he was also quickly moving away from the huge and prosperous city behind him.

But he was definitely in a bad mood at the moment.

After walking for just a moment, Zhong Shan was already covered in cold sweat. His body was already a little out of control due to excessive tension and seemed a little stiff.

This situation occurred because he was under an unimaginable amount of pressure.

The source of the pressure did not come from the flickering candle overhead, as if it was about to be extinguished at any moment, but from the series of heavy and stiff footsteps behind him.

The ghost was following Zhong Shan from beginning to end.

He didn't dare to look back, he didn't even dare to make a sound, and even unnecessary body movements had to be avoided as much as possible.

No one knows what the killing patterns of the ghost behind him are.

Once he is really targeted, Zhong Shan knows that he will never be able to withstand the attack of a ghost, even if he is a ghost controller. It only takes a few seconds for him to be killed on the spot.

"Zhong Shan, hold on, someone will take your place as soon as this ghost candle burns out. Now you just continue to walk straight forward on this road."

"Someone has already used the ghost realm to create a path for you. You don't need to take a detour."

"The plan is successful. The ghost has been following you. Chen Yi's method is very effective. Using Guo Fan as a medium can indeed avoid the risk of being killed instantly when using the ghost candle."

Strange voices came from the satellite phone.

The headquarters already knows about the success of the plan.

Although there is no one around, all preparations have been made. As long as Zhong Shan continues like this, this plan will be a complete success.

Even if it is unexpectedly interrupted now, the plan is more than half successful.

Because danger is already leaving the city.

"It seems like there won't be any more accidents in this operation. Let's just lure that thing away and forget about the detention for the time being."

In the conference room, Cao Yanhua looked at the images from the scene and listened to Chen Yi's report, feeling relieved.

After saying that, he looked at Wang Xiaoming again: "Thanks to Professor Wang for your suggestion this time, although it was a bit risky, luckily there was no danger."

"It will be difficult for Guo Fan to survive this incident." Wang Xiaoming did not answer, but instead said.

Cao Yanhua's eyes moved slightly: "Although no one wants it, sacrifices are inevitable in some things."

"No, that's not what I meant."

Wang Xiaoming's face was surprisingly calm. In his opinion, it didn't matter if a ghost controller died, especially a ghost controller like Guo Fan who could not affect the overall situation.

"Professor Wang is interested in the things on Guo Fan." The person who spoke was captain Shen Liang. He smiled softly: "Although there is a ghost attached to that special spiritual place, it is a relatively special item after all. , such things usually have a certain degree of controllability and are worthy of research."

Wang Xiaoming did not deny it and said directly: "I have always paid attention to the spiritual tablet in Guo Fan's hand. The material is very special."

"special?"

As a consultant, Zhao Jianguo put down the newspaper in his hand, his eyes moved slightly and said: "It should be very ordinary. After all, the special thing about something is not the material. I have read the information on the spiritual tablet, and it is very ordinary wood."

"indeed."

Wang Xiaoming said: "But after the ghost coffin appeared, the spiritual tablet in Guo Fan's hand was unusual. Yang Jian had been to Huanggang Village, and he had seen the original ghost coffin. At that time, there was also a spiritual tablet in front of the ghost coffin, and there was also a spiritual tablet on it. The photo, the portrait in the photo reported it, and the operator Liu Xiaoyu also searched for the person in the photo."

"Of course, it is impossible to find the people in the portraits in reality. After all, they may look like ghosts, and the spiritual tablets in Huanggang Village are just things in the ghost realm. They are not real. But the appearance of the ghost realm After all, reality must be used as a reference, so it cannot be denied that once upon a time, at a certain period, there was such a spiritual tablet placed in front of the ghost coffin."

"The coffin, the spiritual tablet, the ghost on the portrait, two almost similar materials, products of the same era. I don't think there is such a coincidence in this world, especially when it comes to supernatural events."

This reminder caused the expressions of several people present to suddenly change.

At the same time, an issue that had been discussed before came to mind.

Ghost puzzle!

When supernatural events first occur, the source of ghosts are broken things, such as broken shadows, broken heads, and broken limbs. These supernatural events have limited harm and are relatively easy to solve.

But now, the terrorist incidents have escalated, and the incomplete ghost is gradually improving.

Someone has mentioned that real ghosts may have been scattered and appeared in this world in a mutilated form.

Of course, there is no conclusive evidence to prove this speculation. After all, such events are too complicated and many aspects are difficult to understand. It cannot be confirmed by speculation and some explicit evidence.

"If the two are related, it would probably be a mistake to let Guo Fan participate in the operation." Shen Liang frowned.

In the face of an incident of this level, it is necessary to avoid any accidents to the greatest extent possible.

"No, it is precisely because of this that I suggested that Guo Fan participate in this operation." Wang Xiaoming's face was still calm, his eyes flickered, and he seemed to have some other ideas in his mind.

"I want to see something special happen."

Cao Yanhua said solemnly, "So do you think Guo Fan's loss of control has something to do with this?"

According to normal circumstances, Guo Fan's operation should not be out of control, but this time there was an accident.

Is this Wang Xiaoming's deliberate plan?

Or is this also a carefully designed experiment on his part?

Or perhaps the successful recovery of the ghost coffin, coupled with the spiritual tablet in Guo Fan's hand, gave Professor Wang new research interests, and thus intentionally compromised Guo Fan in this operation.

Although the possibility is small.

But if Guo Fan's weight is insufficient in the process of Wang Xiaoming's measurement of value, there is still a chance that this situation will occur.

Just like when Yang Jian and his group were almost wiped out in Huanggang Village.

Wang Xiaoming did not answer, but remained silent.

"Perhaps now is not the time to discuss this. Since the operation went well, it is time to pick them out. I hope they are all alive."

Cao Yanhua's face moved slightly and he stood up immediately: "The meeting is suspended. Professor Wang and I will leave for a while."

After saying that, he and Wang Xiaoming got up and left the conference room.

Also leaving at the same time was the old man named Mr. Qin.

"Sure enough, we have prepared some back-up tactics to lure people. Professor Wang seems to have anticipated the danger of this operation." Shen Liang shook his head and smiled when he saw them leaving.

"No one can afford to destroy a team of top ghost controllers. Isn't it because of this reason that the ghost painting incident was defined as an S-level incident? Professor Wang must have had some considerations in planning this operation. " Zhao Jianguo said.

Shen Liang thought of Guo Fan, and his eyes sank slightly: "But he has thought too much. Who knows what he is planning. What he said about the ghost coffin and the spiritual place just now may be just for us. What is really going on? No one knows his purpose. After all, our information and intelligence are not equal."

"It's not good to speak ill of Professor Wang behind his back," someone said.

"It's even worse to be targeted by him. I think the one who dares to deal with him is probably Yang Jian, after all." Shen Liang stopped abruptly here.

It would be better not to mention the grievances between Yang Jian and Wang Xiaoming.

At this moment.

A special place deep underground.

This is a place where some supernatural objects are stored. Yang Jian has been here before.

Cao Yanhua, Wang Xiaoming, and Mr. Qin came to a small room here.

From the dark yellow glass window, you can see an old wooden door inside.

The wooden door was wrapped with chains and completely trapped.

However, the door standing on the ground shook slightly from time to time, as if something behind the door wanted to open it and come out.

"Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Qin." Cao Yanhua spent a lot of effort to open the door, and then said solemnly.

"Haha, you're welcome, it's just a small matter." Mr. Qin walked into the small room with a smile.

As soon as he walked in, Cao Yanhua immediately closed the door.

The wooden door inside is codenamed the Ghost Door and is an extremely dangerous thing.

But dangerous things often also represent great value, it all depends on how you use them.

Mr. Qin in the small room was using his crutches to untied the chains on the wooden door.

As the restraints decreased, the vibrations from the other end of the wooden door became more intense.

It's as if the door can't wait to open.

"This is the first time I have used such a dangerous thing. I hope there won't be any accidents." Cao Yanhua said worriedly.

"Everything has accidents, and no one can guarantee 100% safety." Wang Xiaoming said calmly: "Dealing with these ghosts itself represents danger. Prepare to time the door. The door will open for the first time in sixteen minutes."

Cao Yanhua looked at his watch and immediately wrote down the time.

The sixteen-minute countdown started immediately. In the room, Mr. Qin had almost untied the chains wrapped around the wooden door.

Although there were still ten minutes left, Cao Yanhua did not dare to relax for a moment and kept his eyes on his watch.

"By the way, there's something you need to pay attention to while there's no one here." Suddenly, Wang Xiaoming spoke.

"What needs to be said at this time?"

Wang Xiaoming said: "Originally I wanted to speak at the conference table, but I think that would be too dangerous. After all, there are too many uncertain factors. Even you and I don't fully trust you. I can only take risks and let you If a person knows, the risk is relatively small."

"Since it's so serious, let's talk about it." Cao Yanhua raised his head slightly and said.

Wang Xiaoming looked at the wooden door in the small room and said slowly: "There is something wrong with Zhao Jianguo."

"Huh? What does this mean?" Cao Yanhua didn't understand.

Wang Xiaoming said: "Literally, there is something wrong with him. I suspect that he has been invaded by ghosts, not his body, but here."

After speaking, he pointed to his head.

"Are you kidding? Is there any evidence?" Cao Yanhua's eyes narrowed instantly.

"After he made a mistake at work last time, he was transferred to the training base as a receptionist. Not long after, there was a problem in my laboratory. The situation was urgent and I didn't think about it that much. But in my spare time, I hypothesized that if the ghost coffin got out of control, Wasn’t the incident an accident?”

"In other words, at that time, who knew that I had left the laboratory, and who had the ability to invade the laboratory from the front?"

"The only people who have contacted me are Li Jun, Yang Jian, Zhao Jianguo, and a few security guards at the training base. However, the security guards at the training base all died in the ghost coffin incident, so this possibility is not possible. The only possibility is These three people, because these three people not only had contact with me, but were also participants in the ghost coffin incident."

Wang Xiaoming said.

"Isn't there any suspicion in Yang Jian?" Cao Yanhua looked particularly solemn.

"I said he was suspicious. I guess you, deputy minister, suspected that I was using a borrowed knife to kill people. After all, I had some unpleasant things happen to him."

Wang Xiaoming said calmly: "It's a pity that his suspicion is the lowest, even lower than my own suspicion of having problems."

"So, has a ghost sneaked into our headquarters?" Cao Yanhua said through gritted teeth.

"I can't be sure at the moment, I'm just guessing." Wang Xiaoming said: "I'm not very good at this aspect, so it's up to you, deputy minister, to judge and solve all this. After all, if this matter is not handled well, big trouble will happen. Yes, my research is still going on and I cannot get involved in this kind of thing."

"Besides, it's not time to think about this now. Pay attention to the time. It's time to open the door for the first time."

Cao Yanhua, who was thinking, suddenly came back to his senses.

He hurriedly turned his attention to his watch, preparing to let Mr. Qin open the ghost door for the first time.
