Jiang Cheng, Zhang Xiaoxiao.
Yang Jian looked at the information of those two people on the text ssage, and his heart gradually sank.
These two people were ghost controllers during their lifetis, controlling fierce ghosts and also companions of Li Leping, yet they were not affiliated with the headquarters but rather civilian ghost controllers.
But now both of them had died, so Yang Jian's focus was on the fierce ghosts possessed by these two people.
One person's ghost was the Sleepwalking Ghost.
A fierce ghost that only becos active at night, wandering around this city district, committing indiscriminate killings, making it highly dangerous.
The other person's ghost was the Seeker Ghost.
This ghost is even more ferocious, not distinguishing between day and night; as long as the ghost spots you and cos within a few ters of you, you will imdiately die.
Similar to Ghost Door Knocker and the ghost footsteps in ghost painting, it belongs to the type that triggers certain death.
This type of ghost is extrely terrifying, and the majority of ghost controllers could easily die if they are not careful.
But what troubled Yang Jian the most was that the ghost controller nad Zhang Xiaoxiao... possessed the Ghost Domain.
That was the ability of the second ghost he controlled.
The information did not specify details about the second ghost; probably Li Leping also knew little, as many people tend to keep secrets, only ntioning to absolutely avoid staying in thick smoke for long.
Ghost Domain combined with Seeker Ghost.
Yang Jian's face turned dark.
Once the Ghost Domain is activated, it becos very easy for the fierce ghost to find soone, and if no thod is devised to flee the Ghost Domain, everyone will quickly die off.
Of course.
There is one more thing that absolutely cannot be forgotten,
Within the Ferocious Ghost District, there resides another ghost.
"If a living person appears in the Ferocious Ghost District during the day, they can easily be discovered by the Seeker Ghost and then instantly die. If it's at night, although you can carefully avoid the Seeker Ghost, the Sleepwalking Ghost will co out, and then there are two ghosts roaming here, making the Terror Level even higher."
"It's really like playing a ga of hide-and-seek."
Yang Jian gripped the mobile phone, scrolling to the last piece of information.
"Yang Jian, the reason I don't know much about the fierce ghost in the Ferocious Ghost District isn't that I don't want to tell you, but because everyone who has seen that ghost has died. I had contact, but the process has already been forgotten by . I had to use the power of a ghost to erase the existence of that day."
"So, please be sure to be careful."
This is a warning.
Li Leping told Yang Jian that he had suffered losses within the Ferocious Ghost District, even coming close to death, and had to use the ability of the Forgetful Ghost to forget everything about that day in order to survive.
"Captain, what did the information say? Is it a clue left by Li Leping?" Li Yang curiously asked.
Yang Jian kept his face stern and silent, passing the mobile phone to Li Yang: "You read it yourself."
Li Yang imdiately took the phone and started to re-read the ssage.
Li Yi, Yang Xiaohua, and also Leuk Qingqing curiously gathered around, eager to find out what it was about.
After all, the more information they have, the greater their chances of survival, even if they ca here as cannon fodder, they still have to struggle and try, how can they be content to die in confusion.
Sleepwalking Ghost?
Seeker Ghost?
One unknown fierce ghost within the Ferocious Ghost District.
My God.
This place indeed hosts three ghosts.
No wonder it's called the Ferocious Ghost District, it truly lives up to its na.
Luckily, it's dayti now, and the Sleepwalking Ghost hasn't appeared yet, otherwise, it would be even more despairing.
The three of them trembled, feeling that what Li Yang said earlier was not incorrect, they could just be walking around here and may die at any mont, not needing to do anything because there's nothing they could do.
"Luckily we have intelligence information, if we walked in there without knowing anything, we really wouldn't know how we died," Li Yi touched the cold sweat on his forehead, feeling a wave of fear after the fact.
This information is extrely important.
After all, seeking out ghosts can be extrely dangerous if one is unaware. But with prior knowledge, they can prevent and avoid dangers in advance.
"How can we still go and deliver mail under such circumstances? What if the ghost is in Mingyue Community? Aren't we basically seeking death?" Yang Xiaohua bit her lip, feeling desperate once again.
The difficulty of delivering mail is trendous.
No wonder they need so many people for this delivery; it must cost lives to fill the gap.
A group of people rushing into the Ferocious Ghost District might have a few luckily unnoticed by ghosts, successfully reaching the delivery location at Building 7, Room 301.
Yang Jian remained silent at this mont.
He rubbed the back of his hand, thinking and hesitating in his mind.
By using Ghost Eye and entering the Ghost Domain, he could instantly arrive at the doorstep of Room 301, Building 7, directly avoiding the risk of being discovered by ghosts, as the Ghost Domain isolates most dangers.
But still.
Using the Ghost Eye again would certainly cause it to revive.
This, Yang Jian could feel.
The limit of suppression had been reached; the last ti he used the Ghost Eye was in the Ghost Post Office, which itself is located within the Ghost Domain, naturally suppressing it, so it was a cunning trick utilized.
However, such cunning tricks couldn't be repeated over and over.
"If we can't use the Ghost Domain, then we have to forcefully march into Mingyue Community."
Yang Jian suppressed the urge to act desperately, especially since it wasn't ti for desperation yet.
"Let's go take a look at Building 7 in Mingyue Community. The weather is good today; we might also be lucky and not be discovered by any ghosts on the way, and we're already in the Ferocious Ghost District, so standing here idly also poses risks."
He didn't plan to waste ti and decided to start moving imdiately.
Besides, they had roughly understood the situation here, and they would have to act sooner or later, and the danger here wouldn't disappear just because you don't act.
"Would it be safer if we bring Coffin Nails? If we are found by a ghost, we can fight one head-on." Li Yang quickly caught up and whispered.
Yang Jian said, "How far is the airport from here in Dachuan City?"
"About ten kiloters or so." Li Yang was stunned for a mont, not quite understanding.
Yang Jian said, "With this distance, if I need the Coffin Nail, I can get it imdiately; it's no different than carrying it on ."
"But Captain, aren't you not in good condition? Can't you use the Ghost Domain?" Li Yang imdiately understood.
Whether you carry it or leave it at the airport several miles away, the distance is almost the sa once the Ghost Domain is activated.
"If we have to bring Coffin Nails, it ans we are prepared to fight desperately, and there's a lot at stake." Yang Jian slowly said, "If possible, I don't want it to co to that, as the danger is too great, too great; you just need to cooperate with , no need to worry about other things."
"I am the captain, I will consider other matters."
Li Yang solemnly nodded his head.
The group of five set off once again.
This ti, they were extra cautious.
Because it was confird that fierce ghosts were wandering in this area. Although this old district is quite large, due to demolition issues, most buildings here have collapsed, increasing the chance of being discovered by fierce ghosts while also providing a clear line of sight.
There is both good and bad in this.
That is, the terrain beca sowhat simpler, which would allow them to detect and avoid danger in advance if they could.
Yang Jian paced a bit faster, heading straight for Mingyue Community, not wanting to waste ti on the road.
The sunny morning seed to bring good fortune indeed.
The group truly encountered no danger and arrived at the front gate of the community.
The old archway was adorned with an iron plaque full of rust: Mingyue Community.
Just looking at the archway indicated how old this community was.
They've arrived!
Everyone's heart was chilled; although they hadn't encountered danger along the way, they didn't feel fortunate because the real danger lay within this community.
Not only were the buildings well-preserved, but the most important aspect was its location at the center of the Ferocious Ghost District.
If ghosts were roaming nearby, then they would likely be inside this community.
"Let's go in."
Yang Jian hesitated for a mont, but still took the lead and stepped into the haunted terror community.
The others took a deep breath, steeled their hearts against the fear, and followed him.
But as soon as they stepped into Mingyue Community, the situation changed imdiately.
The surrounding environnt suddenly darkened.
At the sa ti, a dense, acrid sll hit them in the face, almost suffocating. Yang Jian took a deep breath and felt a sharp pain in his heart and lungs, as if they were burning, and he felt severely deprived of oxygen.
His eyes emitted a faint red glow as he surveyed the surroundings.
The entire community was no longer what it looked like from the outside, but was enveloped in a layer of gloomy haze. This haze was dark grey, like the thick smoke belching from a chimney, carrying a burnt stench.
"Is this dense fog?" Li Yang also walked in, coughing violently, also extrely uncomfortable.
"No, it's not fog. The white expanse that Feng Quan ntioned was fog; this is smoke, thick smoke. Li Leping's teammate nad Zhang Xiaoxiao, the second ghost's Ghost Domain... The information warned us not to stay in the thick smoke for too long, and it seems that's what this is referring to."
Yang Jian's expression shifted slightly.
"I can feel this smoke eroding the bodies of the living. Staying here too long, a normal person would definitely die, it's much more dangerous than the Ghost Fog."
With each breath, Yang Jian could feel signs of erosion in his body, but due to the influence of Ghost Shadow, these signs were healing, and the discomfort quickly dissipated.
But whereas he could ignore this erosion, Li Yang and the others could not.
Li Yang covered his mouth and nose, but it was of little use.
Each breath brought waves of intense pain, as if his lungs were burning.
"This sll..." Li Yi walked in and imdiately bent over to vomit beside him.
"It's exactly the sa as the sll of burning bodies at a crematorium, and it's like burning a decayed corpse, I can't stand it anymore, ugh..."
Yang Xiaohua also started coughing with her face red and ears hot. She didn't vomit but felt nauseous and quickly covered her mouth and nose.
The cheongsam-clad Leuk Qingqing seed more adaptable, remaining calm and composed, simply looking up at the sky.
The sky, which had been sunny, was now oppressively dark, as if it had suddenly entered a rainy day.
But it wasn't clouds that floated in the sky, but thick smoke.
"The community is covered by the Ghost Domain. It looks normal from the outside, but once you walk in, it's all wrong. You all should have read Li Leping's alert in the information; we need to move quickly. Prolonged exposure, and this smoke can suffocate people to death, especially since this isn't ordinary smoke, but sothing infused with supernatural power, which poses a significant threat to ordinary people, no matter how harmless it seems."
Yang Jian said this as he walked deeper into the community.
This smoke was not particularly thick; so other supernatural power seed to be dispersing it within the community, making the surrounding area free of swirling smoke and leaving the visibility largely unaffected.
However, it seed that the smoke had been in this community for so ti.
The ground and the walls were blackened by the smoke.
Even so of the old elms, two or three decades old, within the community were charred like charcoal, their leaves long gone.
One would think a great fire had occurred here, scorching everything.
"The Ghost Domain here indicates that the ghost we're looking for is also here," Yang Jian thought secretly. "However, the strength of this Ghost Domain shouldn't be very high, probably only about three or four levels. If I activate the Ghost Eye, I could either counter-invade or directly escape from here."
"That's sowhat reassuring."
"But with the walls blackened, so things are hard to see clearly, so we'll need to determine whether it's Building 7 or not."
Yang Jian thought calmly.
Here, one row consists of three buildings.
That ans Building 7 is in the third row, either at the far left or the far right.
"The previous information was incomplete, I didn't prepare the exact location of Building 7." He shook his head secretly, feeling a bit careless.
But this wasn't a significant issue. At worst, it ant walking a bit more.
The others continued to follow Yang Jian forward.
At this point, it was beyond re tension; everyone was walking on eggshells.
Because now they had truly entered a terrifying zone.
The ghost was lurking sowhere within this community.
The Ghost Domain covering Mingyue Community was the best proof of this.
"Don't let it notice us," Li Yi prayed in his heart, covering his mouth and nose, forcing himself not to cough and avoid attracting the ghost's attention.
He had seen the information about ghosts seeking people.
Being found by a ghost ans certain death.
No one can save him.
Yang Jian's steps were still very quick, without any hesitation, he went straight to the third row of residential buildings.
He had no ti to care about the first and second rows of buildings, maybe they were dangerous, maybe there were so situations, but he felt that the destination of the letter was the most important.
Who exactly lives in that room?
A fierce ghost, or a living person?
Or could it be Li Leping.....
But very soon.
Yang Jian abruptly stopped in his tracks, because he saw a body at the intersection ahead, a charred body, lying motionless on the ground, dehydrated like dried bacon, now unrecognizable as to who it was.
"It's a living person who died here."
He imdiately made a judgnt.
He intended to ignore it.
However, the clothes on the body attracted his attention.
Although the clothes were also blackened and mangled from the smoking, Yang Jian still recognized them.
This was a manager's uniform.
Only managers affiliated with the headquarters had the privilege to wear this uniform.
Yang Jian also had one, but he had virtually resigned, so he hadn't worn it for a long ti, it was hanging in the closet at ho, usually Zhang Liqin would take it out to iron and arrange for him.
"In Dachuan City, only one person is entitled to wear this uniform, and that is... Li Leping."
He imdiately squatted down and turned the mummified corpse over.
The body was light, nothing unusual.
After turning it over, a distorted and ferocious mummified face appeared, causing one to tremble at the sight, not knowing what kind of tornt and despair this person had suffered before death.
"Be careful." Yang Xiaohua whispered a warning.
She didn't want Yang Jian to fall over just because of moving a mummified body, that would ruin their operation.
"There's no problem with the body." Li Yang said in a suppressed voice.
He was also paying attention to the situation.
But Yang Jian wasn't looking at the mummy's face, but rather at the na on his uniform.
It was a chest badge made of gold, similar to the identity tags worn by soldiers in Arica.
Even though it was blackened by smoke, Yang Jian lightly wiped it and it imdiately beca shiny.
Not even the power of a fierce ghost could affect gold.
The three characters on the badge instantly widened one's eyes.
"Li Leping!"
"What a joke."
Yang Jian stood up abruptly.
Was this uniform Li Leping's, or was this body Li Leping himself?
"What? Li Leping's na?" Li Yang was also startled, a chill rushing from his feet to his forehead, making him feel cold all over.
If the na is correct, then the person in charge of Dachuan City, Li Leping, is this mummified body.
But if Li Leping is already dead, then who was the person he spoke to on the phone yesterday?
The most terrifying part is.
No one rembers exactly what Li Leping looks like, so it's impossible to determine which one is the real Li Leping and which one is the fake.
Li Yang felt his scalp tingle.
