Chapter 194: Encounter and Harvest on the Ghost Bus
Cao Yang and Sun Rui had something to hide, but Zhou Deng didn’t care.
He has many goals now. Although some are "too high to reach" for the time being, there are many places where the Ghost Bus has not yet started.
If we really want to give him some more opportunities, he won't be able to do anything at all.
The treatment given by the headquarters was good, and he did not mind sharing the information with Cao Yang and others. Anyway, it would be reported to the headquarters in the end to divide the supernatural files of the Peace Hotel-"Store Manager" into volumes.
So, he told what happened in Taiping Ancient Town.
Cao Yang and Sun Rui looked at each other, their expressions becoming serious.
There is actually another Taiping Ancient Town in Taiping Ancient Town, and it is a supernatural place that requires a very strong ghost domain to invade. There are many shops inside. At this time, those standing under the ghost bus The paper figures originated from the ancient town of Taiping.
In other words, Taiping Ancient Town is an unknown supernatural force, similar to the Ghost Post Office, but the specific differences still need to be explored in detail.
"Sun Rui and I can't escape now. You need to report the information about Taiping Ancient Town to the headquarters. When there is a chance later, you will definitely have to send someone to deal with it."
In order to maintain domestic stability, if you don't know about such a weird and supernatural place, forget it, but now that you know it, you must deal with it.
Rather than destroy it directly, you should at least find out the situation. The best thing is to bring it under your own supervision to avoid the spread of supernatural incidents.
Zhou Deng nodded, this was what he was planning to do, and then he looked at the satellite phone.
Although there is no signal up there, you can tell the time.
"Four minutes have passed. If the 'store manager' can't come back in time, the ghost bus is about to leave. Do you want to come down and wait together, or leave first?"
Cao Yang said: "We have to deal with some things now, so we won't wait for the 'store manager'."
"Okay."
Zhou Deng got out of the car, and at this time five minutes Having arrived, the door of the ghost bus slammed shut, and then it moved forward amidst the sound of several horns and disappeared without a trace.
The white mist around them has not dispersed, and there are still five paper figures standing around. The most important thing is that they are all painted lifelike, and they look very strange.
And the eyes of these five paper figures are clearly drawn, but they seem to move.
No matter where Zhou Deng moves, they can turn their eyes to look at him. Even if he stands behind the paper people, the paper people can turn their heads to look at him.
Zhou Deng can be regarded as having seen a "big world" figure, but at this time he also felt a little numb.
"'Store Manager,' please come back quickly. Standing with these guys may ruin your life." Zhou Deng wailed in his heart.
It seemed that the "store manager" heard his prayer. Not long after, a figure appeared in the mist in the distance. It was Lin Yuan, the "store manager" who had been away for a long time.
Behind him followed a tiger, a wild boar, a rabbit, a wolf and a cat.
These animals were limping when they walked, and there seemed to be strange marks on their fur, as if they had been beaten with fists.
Zhou Deng didn't know what method Lin Yuan used to catch them, but he didn't say anything.
The existence of the "store manager" is somewhat inappropriate, including the way the "store manager" suppresses the ghosts, which is to first turn the ghosts into animals and then use physical means to subdue them.
What is this?
Draw your opponent to the same level as yourself, and then use your rich experience to defeat the opponent?
If he hadn't seen the "store manager" use supernatural means before, Zhou Deng would have almost thought so. Now he was not surprised at all. Instead, he greeted him as if he had seen a savior.
“Boss Lin is finally back.”
Lin Yuan pointed at the animals behind him and said, “These little cuties ran in separate directions and almost didn’t catch up. Fortunately, They are quite obedient and come back on their own when they know I need them. "
Zhou Deng's mouth twitched, but he still praised without conscience: "Boss Lin is really kind and righteous. Even these animals are influenced by Boss Lin's kindness, which is admirable!"
Lin Yuan nodded with satisfaction and breathed a sigh of relief.
Animal cruelty cannot be confirmed, otherwise those people from the Animal Protection Association would not eat him alive?
"Let's get on the bus now... Hey, where is the bus? Why is it missing?"
Lin Yuan glanced around, with several big question marks in his eyes, Zhou Deng hurriedly Explained: "The bus's stop time is five minutes. When it arrived in five minutes, it left first."
"Five minutes? Such a short time? We haven't even gotten on the bus yet, so you don't know what to do." He stopped him and asked him to wait for a while before leaving?"
Faced with Lin Yuan's question, Zhou Deng smiled bitterly, "Boss Lin, I can't do this!"
Intercept a ghost bus?
Zhou Deng doesn't have the courage. He has seen the fate of the ghosts who stopped in front of the ghost bus. It was at least the fate of death.
And the impact of the ghost bus is not only a supernatural attack, but also a physical attack.
Although Zhou Deng himself has controlled the ghost, he is still a normal human body. If he is really hit by the ghost bus, he will disappear from both the paranormal and biological levels.
As for going inside the ghost bus and controlling the ghost bus to stop?
Zhou Deng has never even thought about it. No matter who wants to do this kind of thing, he will never do it!
"Forget it, let me get in touch. After all, I also have cooperation with the bus company, so I can't just forget it."
Cooperation?
Are you talking about the colorful advertisements on the outside and on the backs of the seats of the ghost buses?
Zhou Deng found that it was really difficult for the "store manager" to communicate sometimes, but then, Lin Yuan directly stretched out his hand, " Lend me your cell phone!"
"Ah?"
"Ah what? I haven't bought a mobile phone yet. Lend me your mobile phone first." Lin Yuan rolled his eyes, but there was a murmur in his heart:
I really don’t know what I’m missing if I don’t go out.
After going to Taiping Ancient Town to catch a market, Lin Yuan realized that he was missing two things, one was a mobile phone, and the other was a means of transportation!
If he had these two things, he wouldn't be so embarrassed now.
There is also his mental state, which actually causes intermittent amnesia. This also needs to be checked by a doctor, otherwise he will be robbed during the amnesia in the future, and even the prisoner will not be found when reporting the crime.
But the most important thing right now is to call the ghost bus back, otherwise he will have to spend seven yuan through "gold fingers" to go back to the store, which is too expensive.
Zhou Deng handed over the satellite phone in a daze. Lin Yuan did not waste time and dialed a number. Soon the call seemed to be connected. Lin Yuan said directly: "I It's Lin Yuan, the owner of the Peace Hotel. Please let the bus that just left Taiping Ancient Town come back. It ran away before I even got on the bus."
Zhou Deng straightened his head and listened to the call. He wanted to get a glimpse of the reality of the ghost bus, but the sound coming from inside was very strange.
Zhou Deng couldn't understand what the sound meant at all, and couldn't even describe what the sound sounded like. He just felt his head was dizzy.
The hamster in the clothes seemed to be stimulated, and suddenly jumped on his face, hitting his face with a claw.
"Ah!"
Zhou Deng screamed, but finally woke up, and suddenly felt a chill down his back: Was I attacked by a supernatural being just now? Fortunately, the ghost I controlled automatically revived and I woke up.
Zhou Deng understood the reason instantly and did not dare to eavesdrop on the phone anymore, but he noticed that the evil ghost he controlled had turned into a hamster.
At this time, there was something wrong with the hamster's state. His pupils, which were clearly black and white, were gradually turning red, and his aggressiveness became much stronger.
Li Gui was stimulated and was about to revive?
Zhou Deng's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't pay too much attention. Instead, he looked at Lin Yuan expectantly, "According to the information from the headquarters, it only takes three yuan for the 'store manager' to help suppress the evil ghost. When I'm in a state of panic, although I don't have three yuan of ghost money on me, I still have some supernatural items that can be exchanged, so don't worry too much."
Lin Yuan happened to look over at this time, and his ugly expression suddenly stopped, and he burst into laughter, "Zhou Deng, did you forget to feed your treasure hunter? Look at your face. Do you want to be the king of beasts?"
Zhou Deng laughed a few times, not knowing what Lin Yuan meant and took out a mirror from his arms.
The mirror is a very simple kind. The mirror body is dark red. It should be made of some kind of precious wood. It is carved with fine patterns. It does not look like the mirrors made today, but looks like It was a dressing mirror used by ladies during the Republic of China period.
But if you look carefully for a long time, you will find that the dark red color is very similar to the color of blood.
Zhou Deng looked at the mirror. His face was reflected on the mirror. He saw three more horizontal blood stains on his forehead. There was blood flowing down from the blood stains. The upper one fell to the next one. It seemed as if the word "王" was written in blood.
Sure enough, this is the King of Beasts... what the hell!
Behind the "store manager" is a tiger turned into a fierce ghost. He is obviously the strongest. His character was created by a fierce ghost. He can't feel any pain at all, only a cold feeling. The breath kept flowing in.
"It seems that I have to go back to the Peace Hotel with the 'store manager' and let him help me suppress the evil ghost's resurrection first, otherwise there will be no chance to make any more money."
Zhou Deng murmured in his heart, and suddenly noticed something happened in the mirror.
The reflection that originally belonged to Zhou Deng showed a strange smile at this time, but Zhou Deng outside the mirror did not smile, his face was numb and indifferent.
At the same time, the red paint on the mirror became a little sticky, and a few drops fell to the ground, making a squeaking sound.
Obviously, this dressing mirror is also a supernatural object. It is so weird that it can be called a ghost mirror! Seeing the changes in the reflection in the mirror, Zhou Deng was not in a hurry. He took out the human skin mask from his arms and put it directly on the ghost mirror, blocking the mirror surface.
In the mirror, Zhou Deng's reflection did not dissipate immediately, but the sly smile at the corner of its mouth had begun to subside.
The sly smile calmed down very slowly, and it took a full thirty seconds to gradually dissipate. At this time, Zhou Deng's reflection also began to disappear, and finally returned to calm.
Feeling that the paint on the ghost mirror returned to normal, Zhou Deng took off the human skin masks and put them back into his arms. Then he looked at Lin Yuan and saw that Lin Yuan had already finished the phone call. , but his face is not very pretty.
Holy shit!
When the "store manager" gets angry, he wants to slap others. Now that he is the only one here, he is not going to be slapped, right?
Zhou Deng suddenly panicked, and these information were also obtained from the headquarters' supernatural files. Fortunately, Lin Yuan did not attack him, but just handed over the phone and complained slightly: "The human heart is not ancient, the human heart is not ancient. !”
Zhou Deng quickly took back his hand and said with a sneer: “What are you talking about, Boss Lin? It’s a great society now, there’s nothing like that. Let’s just give this phone to Boss Lin. You, take it as a testimony of our friendship."
Lin Yuan directly stuffed the satellite phone back into Zhou Deng's arms and said angrily: "What are you talking about, do I look like the kind of person who snatches someone's cell phone? ?”
Zhou Deng asked cautiously: “What do you mean, Boss Lin?”
After making the call, Lin Yuan felt very unhappy and wrote directly on his face Now that Zhou Deng asked, he just vented his grievances, "I called the bus company just now and asked them to call the bus back to pick me up. They actually said that the route has been determined and cannot be changed! You said, I spent so much money to advertise in their bus company, but I can’t even get this kind of treatment?”
Only then did Zhou Deng understand the reason and asked curiously: "Boss Lin, how much did you spend on this advertisement?"
It turns out that Ghost Bus can place advertisements as long as you pay money. How about asking the headquarters to spend some money and place recruitment advertisements directly on ghost buses?
There is no need to worry about not having enough people in charge.
You must know that most wild ghost masters will face the situation of the ghost resurrecting, and most of them died and did not survive.
But there are also some people who are not weak in strength who will board the ghost bus by chance to suppress the resurrected ghosts.
This kind of ghost controller has both strength and luck. If he can be recruited into the headquarters, it will definitely be a great enhancement to the headquarters.
After writing down this idea, Zhou Deng asked again: "Then how do we go back to the store now? Is there anyone else coming to pick us up?"
"Of course not, What are you thinking about? I have already negotiated with the bus company. For three yuan, I can call for bus pick-up at any time within a year."
Lin Yuan looked as proud as before. The look of complaint was in sharp contrast.
Zhou Deng:? ? ? ? ?
So, what was I regretting just now?
......
On the ghost bus, Cao Yang and Sun Rui were relieved until the vehicle entered an unknown supernatural place again.
"Fortunately, the 'store manager' drove away all those evil spirits, otherwise if they got off the bus together, we would be in trouble."
Sun Rui nodded. , "There are only two of us on the ghost bus now. I hope the rest of the trip goes well."
Cao Yang took a deep breath and said, "According to the couriers on the first floor, after we send this letter away, we have to send another letter before we can enter the second floor. We hope that the delivery address will not appear in the downtown area again."
Sun Rui glanced at him, "I said, I should be allowed to guard the ghost post office. These messengers are the culprits of the ghosts' resurgence. Even if they were innocent when they entered the ghost post office, they would die again and again afterwards. In other words, when they were chosen to be messengers, none of them was innocent, and even if they were killed, they would be considered worthy of death."
< br>Cao Yang shook his head, "I don't know how to evaluate the concept of using the sacrifice of a small number of people to protect the majority of people, but your idea itself has problems. According to Professor Wang's inference, the ghost post office is likely to be controlled by someone. , and it is probably that Zhang Xianguang. If all these inferences are true, no matter whether the manager of the ghost post office is Zhang Xianguang or not, he will not block the way of the ghost post office, and you will be in danger. If you die on the first floor, reviving your sick ghost will have no effect on at least an alien being like Zhang Xianguang. You will be imprisoned soon. Don't forget, you were chasing us in the ghost post office before. The ghost was more terrifying than imagined.”
The last time they tore up a letter in the ghost post office, a ghost appeared in the ghost post office to chase them.
Although they fled to the Peace Hotel and did not confront the ghost head-on, when they went to deliver the next letter today, they entered the ghost post office and were attacked by the ghost again.
Just a simple collision made Cao Yang feel that his two dead ghosts were restless.
Especially when he later saw that the ghost seemed to have other methods, he quickly escaped from the ghost post office with Xin and Sun Rui. Fortunately, the ghost could not leave the ghost post office, otherwise they would have to lie down now If you don't come out at the Peace Hotel, you can't even go to the headquarters.
Sun Rui's face was very ugly, and he obviously knew that what Cao Yang said was right.
Otherwise, even if Cao Yang disagrees, he will stay alone on the first floor of the ghost post office and let the ghost who revives after his death do what he cannot do.
Unfortunately, the situation in the Ghost Post Office is too complicated, and it is simply not something he can do with his current strength, even if he has to die for it.
While they were chatting, the darkness outside the ghost bus began to change, and a faint mist began to appear. It was obvious that they had left the supernatural place and appeared in an unknown place.
"It's somewhat similar to the store manager's ghost realm."
Cao Yang muttered, but he wasn't too worried, because none of the ghosts in the world are the same, even if they are supernatural. So is strength.
Whether the "store manager" is a human or a ghost, it is impossible for another ghost with the same supernatural power as him to appear.
Unless it's like Liu Qingqing, because by chance, Baiwu Ghost Domain became the second ghost she controlled, which was balanced with the ghost cheongsam on her body.
Not right either.
The White Mist Ghost Realm is a supernatural power belonging to the "store manager". Even if a small part is separated and becomes Liu Qingqing's supernatural power, it is not considered to be controlled.
Is it possible to say that she has controlled many "store managers"?
This is obviously not true. In comparison, the White Mist Ghost Realm cannot be used normally on people like Tong Qian, He Yuelian, and He Yin'er. It may take Liu Qingqing to experience the same life and death crisis before he can use it. Chance.
But in the absence of danger or fatal crisis, it is blind to conduct such an experiment rashly. Even Professor Wang only mentioned it and had no intention of going deeper.
Liu Qingqing disappeared over Dachuan City. The person in charge of Dachuan City was already looking for her, but could not find her all day and night, which meant that something was wrong with Liu Qingqing.
But judging from the calm and unhurried look of the "store manager", Liu Qingqing should be like He Yin'er, and his life is not in danger, otherwise the "store manager" would have been unable to do his job long ago.
But that’s what makes it even more troublesome.
Who knows what happened to He Yin'er and Liu Qingqing. They are both cooks at the Peace Hotel. If they are planning something secretly, there will definitely be big trouble.
Fortunately, the letter delivery task is not in Dachuan City now, otherwise Cao Yang would really have to wonder if something went wrong with Liu Qingqing.
Sun Rui's thoughts were similar to Cao Yang's, "This should be an unknown supernatural place, maybe..."
The rest of the words could not be continued because the Taiping Ancient Town bus station they had just passed appeared again. In front of you.
In front of the bus stop, the "store manager" and Zhou Deng were standing out, along with five paper figures and five animals.
Sun Rui and Cao Yang looked at each other and saw the solemnity in each other's eyes. At this time, the front door of the ghost bus opened, causing their expressions to change slightly.
“With the back door closed, we have no chance to get out of the car.”
"Be careful later. No matter what this thing is, as long as it is not the 'store manager', it should be impossible to do something to us in the carriage."
After the situation of the ghost bus was discovered by the headquarters, it quickly established a Your own supernatural file.
Now Cao Yang is contacting the headquarters via satellite phone and preparing to report the intelligence here, but he does not have much hope.
Because in an unknown supernatural place, even a specially made satellite phone has no signal.
However, this time, he actually got through. In other words, is this really reality, not an unknown supernatural place?
What about the "store manager" and others who have already started to get on the bus?
Lin Yuan had already stepped onto the ghost bus. Countless white mist ghosts cleared the way for him and instantly filled the entire ghost bus compartment. However, Cao Yang and Sun Rui's sight was not obstructed.
They can see clearly.
When Lin Yuan got on the bus, the number on the display board jumped from 1 to 3. When the five paper figures got on the bus, the number jumped from 3 to 8. When the five animals got on the bus, At that time, the number jumped from 8 to 13.
Only when Zhou boarded the car, the number above did not change.
"So, are we really back?"
Cao Yang looked in a daze, obviously not expecting the ghost bus to return, but looking at the "store manager" who greeted him enthusiastically, he suddenly felt, Everything seemed so normal again.
Soon, the ghost bus restarted, and at this time, the situation in the ghost bus had changed over and over again.
The only thing that reassures Cao Yang and Sun Rui is that they basically don’t have to worry about being attacked by ghosts this time, because no matter what kind of ghost they are, they can only successfully prey on the "store manager".
They even vaguely hope that more ghosts can get on the bus. It would be best if all the ghosts in the world come to catch the bus...
