Chapter 376: The Deterrence of Ghost Private School, White Wax Ghost Candle
No, it is not a classroom, but a private school.
This is no longer the command center of the headquarters, but an old private school. There are many students in this private school, but those students seem to have lost their color, wearing black clothes and being pale all over. Like dead people.
"What's going on?" Cao Yanhua was stunned, but he soon understood, and his face became very ugly, "Supernatural incident? How could a supernatural incident occur at the headquarters?"
In order to ensure the safety of the headquarters, various areas of the headquarters are isolated by walls made of gold material, and they are also built in air-raid shelters, which ensures to the greatest extent that effective defense can be carried out when supernatural events occur.
To put it simply, the headquarters is like a complex super-large safe house.
If there is any loophole, it is that ghosts can come along the phone line and beat people. For example, the ghost call incident that broke out abroad may attack the headquarters.
However, in response to ghost calls, the headquarters also has corresponding defensive measures.
Since the establishment of the headquarters, supernatural incidents have occurred frequently across the country, but there has not been a single supernatural incident at the headquarters, not even once.
But now is better.
With the emergence of the Peace Hotel and the "store manager", although the frequency of supernatural incidents in China has not decreased, overall there is hope for control.
The most worrying thing is nothing more than the attitude of the "store manager" towards ordinary people and towards the headquarters.
Never thought that before there was a problem with the "store manager", a horrific supernatural event would have broken out at the headquarters. How could Cao Yanhua not be shocked or angry?
"Minister Cao, we have all come in. This is not real, but a scene constructed by some supernatural being, and it is not in reality, but in consciousness." Li Jun also said Sitting at a desk, motionless.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to move, but that he can’t move.
A Hong was also nearby. She wanted to struggle, but found that it was useless. "It seems that our consciousness is bound by some kind of supernatural being. We just don't know what kind of ghost this is and why it suddenly appeared in the headquarters. Besides the three of us, Except for people, it seems that no other operators, logistics, etc. have come in."
Hearing the voices of Li Jun and A Hong, Cao Yanhua was obviously relieved. He looked around with all his strength and found that they were the only ones. Except for the three people, the rest were all students who looked like dead people.
This private school is not small. There are at least twenty or thirty weird students sitting around it. They seem to be out of place blending in. However, they have no way to control themselves here and can only remain motionless.
"There is a supernatural power that selects targets. Are only the three of us triggering the killing pattern? What is the killing pattern? How is the headquarters doing now?"
Cao Yanhua is also concerned about supernatural events. Very familiar. Even though he was involved in supernatural events, he was still able to think calmly and did not panic like ordinary people.
Even compared to some ghost masters, he is calmer, more mature and stable.
Only by carefully looking at his eyes, you can find that he is also afraid and frightened in his heart. He is not as calm as he appears on the surface, but he suppresses it and tries to face it with a calm attitude. to all of it.
In supernatural events, the more panicked you are and the less you know how to control your emotions, the faster you will die.
Cao Yanhua took the initiative to participate in a supernatural event for the first time, but he has already shown considerable potential, which also made Li Jun relieved.
He is also worried about whether there will be any negative impact if Cao Yanhua acts randomly.
Now that Cao Yanhua is performing so well, he can't help but sigh at the deputy minister's ability. Sure enough, there is no simple person who can sit in a high position.
“It is possible that we are the only ones who triggered the killing pattern, but this possibility is not high. There are many operators and support staff in the hall, at least sixty or seventy, and we didn’t do anything special. Action, the possibility of us triggering the killing pattern is not high. Then there is another possibility that someone is attacking us, and they are only targeting us," Li Jun analyzed.
A Hong asked: "Is there any way to get rid of this bondage and escape and return to reality?"
Li Jun gave a desperate answer: "This is The person who is proficient in consciousness-type supernatural powers is Shen Lin, but he is not at the headquarters now. The supernatural power of everyone else, including myself, has disappeared in this scene, without any effect."
You can't use your supernatural power, you can't even move, so how can you fight against the evil ghost?
When a ghost really appears, wouldn't they just have to wait to die?
“The most troublesome thing is that now our consciousness is constrained and we can’t even contact the store manager or use our last trump card.” Li Jun said.
Everyone knows the horror of the "store manager". It is a power that does not belong to reality, and is as invisible as the abyss.
If you encounter a supernatural event in reality, as long as you still have your mobile phone with you, you can contact the "store manager" and ask the "store manager" to help deal with the supernatural event.
All they need to do is prepare a reasonable argument and give a reasonable reward.
Compared with the cost of dealing with horrific supernatural events, these things are very easy and relatively affordable.
But now?
In this special scene, they were unable to move, unable to sense supernatural power, and their mobile phones were not with them. They could not touch the business card of the "store manager", nor could they notify the "store manager". How to borrow the power of "store manager"?
“There are indeed ghosts in the world who kill people indiscriminately, but in complex scenes like this, there should be certain rules. Even if we are betting on luck, we should have a chance to escape, so don’t despair, Observe carefully, the ghost has not appeared now.”
It was Cao Yanhua who spoke.
He, an ordinary person, began to comfort ghost masters like Li Jun and A Hong.
A Hong nodded, obviously in a much better mood, but Li Jun did not react much, because his nerves were tough enough, and he did not despair because of the current predicament, and naturally he did not need to This so-called comfort.
While talking, the door of the old private school opened with a creak, and a cold breath rushed in.
Footsteps sounded, and a strange, lifeless man in old clothes walked in, holding a rusty machete in his hand.
This man looks very strange, his face is full of wrinkles, with patches of black or cyan marks, and his whole body is lifeless, as if a corpse that has been dead for seven days has become dead again.
"The ghost is coming!"
Li Jun, A Hong and Cao Yanhua were shocked, and they suddenly had such an idea.
The ghost walked in with a knife, and everyone was unable to move, like fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.
Cold sweat breaks out on Cao Yanhua's forehead. After all, he is just an ordinary person and has never really experienced supernatural events. Now he is holding on.
The ghost paused briefly at the door, then walked in one direction, but it stopped after taking a few steps, then suddenly raised the machete in its hand and slashed a student next to it. His head was chopped off.
The strange student sat there motionless. After his head was chopped off, his body began to disappear rapidly, and finally nothing was left.
One seat was vacant.
The ghost continued to walk, just like before. After walking a few steps, he raised his knife and struck it down again. Another strange student disappeared, leaving an empty seat.
"There is almost no pattern to what this ghost does. It seems to be completely random. Maybe it really depends on luck?" Li Jun's eyes flickered, thinking crazily about the killing patterns of this ghost.
After the ghost grave incident in Dahai City, everyone knew that if you were killed by a ghost in the conscious world, you would die in reality, but in this case, you were unable to resist.
At this moment, a student with a pale body and black clothes suddenly spoke, "It seems that your analysis ends here. But as an ordinary person, Deputy Minister Cao, you are in a good mood. If you can become the Yu The ghost must be a person with great potential."
Everyone's eyes were focused on him. Cao Yanhua asked in a deep voice: "Who are you? It's you who is attacking us. "Three questions, it's a bit troublesome, but I can answer them patiently. Anyway, the ghosts here kill people randomly. You have to rely on luck to survive here." , there is no other way to survive. I hope your luck will be better, after all, you are monitoring me, you should be a lucky person," the man said slowly, his tone was calm, as if he was reminiscing with an old friend.
Monitoring?
Cao Yanhua's heart moved, "You are Zhang Xianguang?"
"Minister Cao is indeed very smart. I am indeed Zhang Xianguang. I just don't know if Minister Cao has any ideas when monitoring Shuangqiao Town during this period, or does he have any ideas for the future?" Zhang Xianguang asked.
Cao Yanhua said: "As expected, it's you. A ghost controller who has lived for seventy years. You have lived too long and have been hiding in the dark. I don't know what the plan is. Now that I know your situation After that, it is reasonable for us to do some monitoring on you. Your descendants are also very good. At least if there are any supernatural incidents, the headquarters can quickly send people to deal with them."
"So, I have to thank you?"
Zhang Xianguang said slightly. He turned his head and cast a deep gaze on Cao Yanhua, making Cao Yanhua's whole body stiffen slightly.
While talking, three more students were killed by ghosts, and one of them was still sitting next to Li Jun. In other words, the ghost missed him when choosing between the two.
The machete fell right next to his ear, with a strong whistling sound.
A Hong couldn't help but exclaimed, but Li Jun still showed no expression, as if the knife was not cut beside him.
"Zhang Xianguang, you came to the headquarters to find the three of us, are you just here to raise an army to punish us? With the strength you have shown now, if you really want to vent your anger, there is no need to do such troublesome things. ."
Zhang Xianguang said: "You are also very smart, yes. Under normal circumstances, I don't want to be at odds with the headquarters, or even say hello, but your surveillance makes my daily life very troublesome. I have no choice but to go to Beijing and have a talk with you, and I hope you can look away."
Li Jun said: "It is impossible that this is what you are asking for, but now you are qualified to ask for it. I personally agree with the conditions. Deputy Minister, what’s your opinion?”
Cao Yanhua glanced at Li Jun. He knew that Li Jun was not someone who would compromise because his life was in danger, otherwise the headquarters would not have transferred him in, and he would have become Wang Xiaoming's personal bodyguard.
Not to mention how strong he is, even if he faces an absolutely powerful enemy, as long as it is the person or thing he recognizes, no accident will happen before he dies.
Now he doesn’t know why Li Jun did this, but he believes in Li Jun, “Okay, I answered.”
“I’m very happy, and I believe you won’t be stupid. Okay, that’s all for today, I hope there won’t be another meeting.”
Zhang Xianguang's voice gradually became ethereal and unreal.
At the same time, the entire old private school suddenly became blurry, including the ghost who had walked up to A Hong and raised his machete to chop people, and he was also disappearing quickly.
Cao Yanhua felt as if he had returned to reality as soon as his eyes blurred.
He opened his eyes suddenly and saw the familiar command center hall. At this time, the hall was still very busy. The operators and staff were all busy. No one noticed anything strange about him. It was as if he had just taken a nap and had a bizarre dream.
But, is it really a dream?
He glanced back at Li Jun and A Hong, especially after meeting Li Jun's eyes, he immediately said seriously: "Seal down the headquarters immediately, and put the first-level supernatural alert on it."
The sudden change caused the scene to change. Everyone was a little surprised.
But it was a well-trained headquarters after all. Although they did not understand Cao Yanhua's order, they still carried it out meticulously, and soon the entire command center turned into a large safe house.
Cao Yanhua glanced at Li Jun, and Li Jun nodded.
The cold will-o'-the-wisp suddenly appeared and spread in all directions. These flames had no temperature and did not feel hot. Instead, they made people feel extremely cold. Some weak operators even started to fight. Shivering.
In such a strange scene, no one moved. Everyone knew that this was Li Jun's will-o'-the-wisp and would not harm them.
The terrifying will-o'-the-wisp soon enveloped the entire command center. Everyone, including Cao Yanhua, was shrouded in the will-o'-the-wisp, as if everyone was living in a world of flames.
"Without supernatural power, Zhang Xianguang should have left."
Li Jun's ghost fire burns supernatural power. Even the ghost painting known as the strongest ghost domain can suppress people like Yang Jian and others. The ghost realm of humans, but will-o'-the-wisps can be used normally in ghost paintings.
This is the attribute restraint of supernatural and supernatural beings.
Under his control, A Hong was not harmed, and there were no supernatural collisions elsewhere. Obviously there were no other ghost masters or ghosts here.
Cao Yanhua said with a cold face: "Contact Yang Jian, I need to know what is going on with Zhang Xianguang, what is the problem with his banquet, and why did he come to the headquarters specifically for this matter to cause trouble!"
No wonder he was so angry.
The headquarters is responsible for supernatural events across the country and is the overall hub. If even the headquarters is no longer safe, what kind of horror does that mean?
Liu Xiaoyu is Yang Jian's operator, so she is naturally responsible for this matter. However, Yang Jian's phone cannot be connected now, so she can only try again and again.
Needless to say, Yang Jian must still be in the supernatural place, probably still at the Peace Hotel.
Cao Yanhua has already contacted Wang Xiaoming. Looking at the situation, he said directly to Li Jun: "I want to trouble you to go to the Peace Hotel. It is best to bring Yang Jian directly to the headquarters."
" What about the headquarters?" Li Jun was a little worried.
Zhang Xianguang's actions just now have proved that he is a lawless guy.
Dare to rush directly to the headquarters and attack them. Even though it was just a simple warning, it also proved Zhang Xianguang's terrifying strength.
The ghost private school alone left Li Jun, the captain, helpless.
If we really want to fight, if there is no corresponding supernatural power of consciousness, then the headquarters will not let it take what it wants?
Cao Yanhua sighed: "There is nothing we can do about it. It is useless even if you stay here, but there is no need to worry. As long as we stay in the safe house, he will not be able to do anything to us again."< br>
Li Jun felt a little relieved, "Ahong, I'll trouble you here."
"Don't worry, I will be here waiting for you to come back, and I won't let you down." "Yes." A Hong smiled softly, but her tone was unusually firm.
Li Jun nodded, he could feel A Hong's belief.
It's a pity that A Hong's strength...
There is no way. Most of the captains of the headquarters went to the Peace Hotel to open up wasteland for tonight's virtual game. Their strength was greatly damaged, so A Hong could only temporarily let A Hong Come take charge.
Li Jun left the command room and even the air-raid shelter. Then he took out the business card of the "Store Manager", then stepped onto the avenue in the white mist pouring out of the business card, and finally disappeared together. .
“Every change in the Peace Hotel is very significant, and every change has a greater impact on reality. I don’t know if what we are doing now is drinking a dove to quench our thirst.”
In the wheelchair, Wang Xiaoming looked haggard, his whole body was emaciated and his eyes were cloudy, but he seemed to be in good spirits.
He was accompanied by a team of medical staff and a young ghost master.
Pushing the wheelchair, he looked back from where Li Jun disappeared and looked at the coffin lid on Wang Xiaoming's back.
"If Professor Wang is worried, you must live well, otherwise when you die, there will be no smart person like you in the world who can compete with the store manager."
"Lin Dragon, say less.”
Cao Yanhua also walked out of the room. Hearing the words of the young ghost master, he couldn't help but remind him.
Lin Long smiled and shrugged. It could be seen that he was in good condition, and his every move was still very much like a normal person.
Cao Yanhua took the handle of the wheelchair and pushed Wang Xiaoming into the command center, "There are still big problems with the defense of the headquarters. Just now Zhang Xianguang from Shuangqiao Town sneaked in and attacked Li Jun and me. His strength is terrifying, and he has a private school-type consciousness. There, even a captain-level existence like Li Jun is of no use. He has no way to resist and is completely restrained. "< br>
“There is no doubt that gold can limit the use of supernatural powers. The supernatural power of consciousness is indeed difficult to guard against. If you want to fight against the supernatural powers of consciousness, in addition to using gold, you can only use the supernatural power of consciousness. Ordinary people are still too fragile in front of this kind of supernatural power, but there is no way. It just so happens that the laboratory has some new things recently. The current output is not high, mainly because there are too few raw materials. As long as the materials are enough, it can be mass-produced. Of course. You can see the effect first.”
At Wang Xiaoming’s signal, Lin Long took out a suitcase.
"As expected of Professor Wang, he can surprise people every time."
Cao Yanhua took the suitcase and opened it, and was stunned for a moment, "Isn't this a white ghost candle? It is very effective for ghosts, but if If it is a ghost controller, it is basically useless. And its burning time should not be long. If you use it for a long time, it will consume too much, so I think Professor Wang can take it out. It should not be an ordinary white ghost candle. Right?”
There were two white candles in the suitcase.
Wang Xiaoming nodded, "This is using the wax from the wax corpse as an additive. When there is no supernatural power, normal burning can last for two hours. It only takes twelve sticks to burn completely in one day. In addition to its ability to attract ghosts, it can also counteract supernatural beings and prevent supernatural invasion. Of course, its disadvantages are also obvious. The burning speed will increase exponentially under supernatural confrontation, regardless of the opponent's supernatural strength. Any supernatural being who enters the range of the candlelight, even one's own ghost master, will also encounter resistance."
Cao Yanhua's eyes lit up, "What about the consumption of raw materials?"
"The corpse wax exchanged by one ghost can be used to make a hundred sticks, which means it can continue to burn for more than eight days."
"Okay!"
......
The last supernatural bus has left the Peace Hotel. Meng Xiaodong, who went out to collect materials, and Li Qingzhi from Caesar Farm, have also returned to the Peace Hotel.
When Li Jun arrived, it was already half past five in the afternoon.
He was holding the business card of "Store Manager", and the hungry ghost's "Welcome~" did not have any supernatural effect on him, but it was just a bit harsh.
There was no one inside the ghost rental on the roadside, so Guo Fan also went to the Peace Hotel.
Every afternoon at this time, we will hold a small meeting to talk about today's business situation, look for problems discovered today, and talk about how to make changes to provide better services and attract more customers.
Stepping onto the bluestone path, Li Jun saw the commemorative coin exchange hut on the roadside.
Liu San and others had brought out the relevant information before. He naturally knew where this place was, but what surprised him was that at this time, there seemed to be someone standing at the counter in the exchange room. .
Shouldn't Liu Qingqing go to the meeting?
Or a puppet?
Li Jun was a little curious, but he remembered the purpose of coming here and walked towards the Peace Hotel. He passed the fish pond, ghost lake and vegetable fields that were not yet open, and finally arrived at the entrance of the Peace Hotel. .
The starving ghost and the knocking ghost were still squatting at the door, and Yang Jian happened to come out of the store, "Li Jun? Why are you here at this time?"
