Mysterious resurgence

Inside the second floor of the Ghost Post Office.

The old wooden staircase appeared again. The staircase was shrouded in black haze and fog and could not be seen clearly, but it could be judged that the staircase extended upwards and seemed to be connected to somewhere.

Without hesitation, Yang Jian crossed the corridor and walked up the creaking old wooden stairs.

Li Yang followed behind without flinching.

Although he was covered in injuries, he was more confident because he had just controlled two ghosts, and with Yang Jian leading the team, he didn't seem to worry about being cornered.

Although Yang Xiaohua, Liu Mingxin, Cai Yu, and Wang Shan hesitated for a moment, they quickly followed because other places on the second floor were being eroded by darkness, rooms were disappearing, and everything on the second floor was being erased.

This floor is already repelling them.

At this moment, the stairs to go upstairs appeared, which proved that they had no choice.

The stairs leading to the third floor are much longer than they actually feel. According to the normal floor height, the distance between the second and third floors is only a few meters, but in fact the length of the wooden stairs is more than twenty meters.

The front and back of the stairs were shrouded in a layer of black mist, making it impossible to see the end or behind.

As I walked further along the stairs, the scenes on the second floor behind me began to disappear quickly.

Slowly the situation on the third floor emerged.

There are almost no changes like the second floor. It is also a corridor with a back-to-back shape, but the only difference is that the middle patio is no longer empty, but there is an open space with a few furnishings. At first glance, it looks a bit like It feels like being back on the first floor again.

There are also seven rooms, and that hasn’t changed at all.

"31, 32, 33" Yang Jian looked at the house numbers.

That's right, this is the third floor of the Ghost Post Office.

"However, there seems to be no one on the third floor of the ghost post office today."

Yang Jian's expression changed slightly: "It seems that there is no letter delivery mission today, so the messenger is not in the ghost post office."

"I heard that the courier on the third floor delivers a letter every three months. The time span is very long, so the courier on the third floor has plenty of time to maintain a normal life."

Cai Yu, who came up, looked around at this time, and then said with a solemn expression.

"Where is the messenger on the fourth floor?" Wang Shan asked.

Cai Yu said: "It should be one letter every six months. The messenger on the fifth floor will most likely send one letter once a year. However, there are some changes that I don't know about. I just listened to the messenger on the second floor. Not sure."

He has some connection with the messenger on the third floor.

After all, he had already delivered two letters on the second floor. He was a newbie when he first arrived on the second floor, so he would naturally know some old people.

"There is no messenger and no one. It seems a bit difficult to get up to the fourth floor in a short time." Yang Jian pondered.

"Captain, we can go up two floors in one day fast enough. If we continue to rush forward, we will definitely have to pay a very high price. It's better to take it slow." Li Yang suggested.

Yang Jian said: "No, I don't have the time to waste it. If you send a letter in three months, normally it will take nine months to go upstairs. Even if you control two ghosts, you won't be able to survive." That time."

Li Yang was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he was a ghost controller and his lifespan was short.

Even those who don't usually use the power of the ghost will eventually die from the resurrection of the ghost.

Time really can't stand this kind of waste.

"If there is another messenger, we can steal his letter." Yang Jian said.

Wang Shan reminded: "Even a person like you cannot tear up three letters in succession. The red letter should only appear under special circumstances, and it cannot happen every time."

"Red letters represent danger and require all the couriers on the first floor to deliver them. The red letters on the first floor should be the least dangerous, followed by those on the second floor. If they are still torn into pieces on the third floor, they will not be dangerous. It’s as simple as one plus one." Yang Xiaohua from behind analyzed the situation.

"In addition, you have already shredded the letter. If you tear it again, the risk level will definitely increase dramatically. Someone has analyzed it before. If the risk level of tearing the first letter is 1, then the risk level of tearing the second letter will be 2, and the risk level of the third letter will be 2. That’s 4, and the fourth one is 16. A messenger was so desperate that he tore into pieces three letters.”

She was very afraid that this Yang Jian would mess up, so she took the letter and tore it up, thinking of shortening the time and going upstairs as soon as possible.

"No matter how dangerous it is, if I encounter a red letter, I will tear it into pieces without hesitation."

Yang Jian said coldly, "You can't imagine the huge impact a red letter will have on the outside."

"It's a good deal to kill a few of you to offset a supernatural incident involving the safety of a city."

"You" Yang Xiaohua wanted to retort, but held back.

Some kind of conscience told her that there seemed to be nothing wrong with Yang Jian's approach.

Although it is cruel to people like them, it is the right thing to do to those outside.

"Then what do you want to do next? Now that we have arrived on the third floor, everything is as you planned." Yang Xiaohua pursed her lips and asked.

Yang Jian said: "You seem to be talking too much nonsense, do you care about my every move? It's a pity that you will never understand what I want to do, but I think since you are all messengers coming from the first and second floors, someone To a certain extent, it is believable, so I need you to stay with me temporarily."

"Why."

Liu Mingxin looked slightly horrified: "Why should we stay with you?"

"Because I want to confirm the situation on the third floor. If you mess around, I will have a headache. Okay, stop talking nonsense. Now find a room to rest. I want to stay here for a few days and see if I can keep one. The messenger came to deliver the letter." Yang Jian said calmly.

Li Yang sensed it and said: "Captain, there is no one in these rooms, and there is nothing in the rooms."

"Very good, let's take room 31." Yang Jian said and walked over.

Several other people looked at him similarly, feeling deeply helpless.

I have no choice but to follow Yang Jian and listen to his arrangements.

"This can't go on like this. This man is too dangerous. He has the ability to handle some dangerous situations. We don't. I almost died on the second floor delivering letters. Now I came to the third floor without any preparation. Plus this Yang If everything goes wrong, we won't survive long."

Liu Mingxin gritted his teeth and whispered.

"We have to find a way to get away from him."

"How to find a solution?"

Cai Yu glanced at him and said: "We can't get rid of our identity as messengers, and we have to deliver letters. As long as Yang Jian doesn't leave the ghost post office, we have to obey his arrangements. You don't have to obey the arrangements if you want. Go talk to him and see. Will he kill you directly?"

"I don't dare to provoke such a person, not to mention that he is no longer a human being. The alien who stole the supernatural power is already half human and half ghost. Yang Xiaohua, don't you understand how scary these two people are."

Yang Xiaohua nodded cautiously: "Yes, they can even deal with ghosts, and it's easy to deal with us. Don't have any other ideas now. Survival is the most important thing. Whose orders and arrangements you follow is not the key to the problem. , as for the rest, let’s think about it later.”

"One step at a time, that's all we can do now." Cai Yu sighed.

Wang Shan suddenly said: "Why don't you think about it, this may be an opportunity, an opportunity to escape from the ghost post office."

Um?

Several other people looked at him.

Wang Shan continued; "Yang Jian made it clear that he was a very scary and special person. The purpose of his appearance here was not to deliver a message, but to go upstairs to the fifth floor. I heard him say the purpose of his going to the fifth floor. , it is said that the purpose is to investigate the ghost post office and then eliminate the ghost post office so that this place will no longer exist."

"If he can do that, we will be completely free from the curse of this messenger."

"Even if he is very capable, if he wants to eliminate the ghost post office, this is just nonsense." Liu Mingxin didn't believe it.

Yang Xiaohua's eyes moved: "No, maybe we can try to believe it. After all, relying on us to go upstairs one by one and deliver the letter will sooner or later be fatal. His intrusion and randomness may indeed be an opportunity, but the premise is that we can hold on until that time."

"If you die before then, it's meaningless."

"That's right, give it a try, and maybe a miracle will happen. Anyway, I'm too scared to live in fear every day, so I'd rather take a big gamble." Wang Shan grinned.

Several people were discussing and discussing behind.

Yang Jian had already entered room 31 at this moment.

But at the same time.

On the first floor of the Ghost Post Office.

A sickly-looking man with a cane was sitting in front of the post office counter, staring at the post office door with strange eyes.

He is the person in charge of Dahan City, codenamed Sun Rui.

Sun Rui did arrive at the ghost post office, but instead of going upstairs, he chose to stay in the lobby.

Yes, he is neither on the first nor second floor, but in the lobby.

This kind of stay is very dangerous, because there is no room in the hall. When it gets dark, the lights of the post office are turned off, evil spirits wander around, and everyone outside will die.

But Sun Rui also has his own ideas. He must find a way to survive here and hold on to this floor.

"Without the addition of couriers, the mission of delivering letters on this floor would be impossible. This ghost post office will soon become an empty building, and after all the couriers die, no one will send out the tempting curse letter. Operations within the ghost post office will be interrupted and everything will disappear.”

"Yang Jian wants to go upstairs, and I will guard downstairs. One of them will succeed."

"Even if I really die here, my ghost will wander around this floor and kill any messenger who enters the first floor."

Sun Rui squinted his eyes. This time he was determined to get rid of this ghost post office.

"Crunch."

Suddenly.

The door of the ghost post office was pushed open at this time.

A bald middle-aged man walked in nervously.

"What, what is this place?"

He looked very frightened, as if it was his first time coming into contact with such a strange place. Judging from his appearance, he was undoubtedly a newcomer.

"You shouldn't be here, living people are not welcome here."

Sun Rui stood up immediately, holding his cane with a cold murderous intent on his face.

He was going to strangle this new guy.

He was not allowed to deliver the letter.

At least not while he was alive.

"You, what do you want to do?" The bald man saw that the situation was not good and quickly backed away.

Sun Rui didn't speak, but limped towards him with a cold face.

ah!

soon.

A scream came from the post office lobby on the first floor.

Then everything became calm again.

Sun Rui returned to the counter and sat down again. He slightly looked at the oil paintings hanging on the walls of the post office.

One of the oil paintings is a portrait of a woman, wearing white clothes, with long hair, delicate and dignified.

But if Yang Jian were here, he would definitely be suspicious, because this woman is very similar to the ghost that appeared on the second floor.

No, even just one person.

It's just that one is when he is alive and the other is when he is dead.
