Chapter 103 – The open coffin


“By controlling the second ghost, the time for the resurrection of the fierce ghost has been greatly extended. Even if I don’t proceed with this transaction, I have still achieved my goal, right? If that’s the case, there is no need to carry out the transaction.”

Yang Jian frowned and began to contemplate what to do next.

But soon, he overturned his own idea.

“No, the threat of the fierce ghost’s resurrection still exists. This balance is not strict, it only makes things easier for now, giving me some breathing room. But this balance will eventually be broken as I continue to use the power of the fierce ghost. At that time, I may be forced to control a third ghost… The transaction must proceed.”

And…

Yang Jian looked at the human skin paper on the ground.

If that company knows how to control fierce ghosts, then this human skin paper must also know.

Between the two, he would choose the company.

This thing is too bizarre, it can even devour ghosts. Who knows what it will do next.

Should he find a place to dispose of it?

Such a thought emerged in Yang Jian’s mind.

Although reason told him to abandon the human skin paper here, his desire to survive stopped him.

The current situation is not yet over.

Moreover, the human skin paper may still play a crucial role when he faces a desperate situation next time.

Even if it is strange, it is better than dying.

With this thought in mind, he decided to keep the human skin paper.

However, the next transaction will definitely be more cautious.

He put away the human skin paper.

Yang Jian no longer dared to keep it on his person.

Instead, he found the box where the headless ghost was imprisoned before and stuffed it inside.

Although the box was a bit tattered, it would definitely be rebuilt after returning.

Now is not the time to relax.

At this moment, Yang Jian still had to face the Huanggang Village incident.

Without resolving this incident, he felt that he could not leave here yet.

The Ghost Domain opened again.

This time, the range of the Ghost Domain expanded once again, covering a radius of fifty meters around him. It was on a completely different level compared to before.

It seems that the power of the fierce ghost that a person can exert is indeed limited.

If it were a ghost controlling ghosts, it would be completely different.

In the next moment, Yang Jian appeared in front of a sports car. He dragged out a suitcase from the car…

But at this moment, Zhang Han, who was locked inside the suitcase, turned pale with fear. He felt that he was in great danger. After hiding for so long, did that ghost from Huanggang Village finally find him?

“I am being dragged out by that ghost.”

“Not good, it wants to open the suitcase. That ghost has already determined my location. I can no longer hide.”

“I’ll fight it.”

At the moment the suitcase opened, Zhang Han’s face turned fierce as he shouted and rushed out.

But when he saw Yang Jian standing outside, his face instantly changed from fierce to shocked, then to suspicion, and finally to a hint of joy.

These rich changes in expression happened within two seconds, which was truly amazing.

Even a drama queen couldn’t compare to him.

“You can continue your performance. We can talk after you finish.” Yang Jian gestured with his hand.

“You… You’re not dead?” Zhang Han exclaimed in surprise.

Yang Jian said, “Just like you, I’m lucky to be alive. Your move was right. Hiding in this golden suitcase, you avoided the most terrifying situation in this village. Now the situation has changed, and the crisis has temporarily been resolved.”

The reason he let Zhang Han out was because he needed another companion.

Otherwise, the condition of being alone and certain death would be triggered.

“Is this… Is this true? Are we temporarily safe now?” Zhang Han looked around with some uncertainty.

They were still in the village.

But it was already daylight, and they had passed through the dark period.

However, when Zhang Han saw the house set up as a mourning hall appear again, his eyes couldn’t help but narrow.

“No, we are only temporarily safe. The situation for others is uncertain. Zhang Yiming… most likely didn’t make it.” Yang Jian said, “I don’t know if he is dead or alive, but now, you must follow me.”

“Where are we going now?” Zhang Han asked.

“To that mourning hall.”

Yang Jian pointed to the nearby house and said, “The root of everything is in that coffin. We must go there to resolve this. We made a detour before and took the wrong action, resulting in the unnecessary deaths of two ghost controllers. We can’t hesitate anymore.”

“I can’t be sure how long this balance can be maintained.”

“Once it gets dark again, we will undoubtedly be doomed. So let’s not waste time and act immediately.”

“Okay, okay.”

Zhang Han nodded almost instinctively.

Seeing that Yang Jian could still turn the situation around and save his life in such a desperate situation, he dared not question his actions anymore.

This young man was much stronger than the others in the club.

If he had believed in him earlier, perhaps the situation wouldn’t have become so bad, and there might have been more surviving ghost controllers.

“Let’s go.”

Yang Jian waved his hand, and the two of them appeared at the entrance of the mourning hall.

Although Zhang Han felt it was strange for their position to suddenly change, he was not surprised.

Because he had seen Yang Jian use this ability before.

“You don’t need to ask about other things. Let me explain the situation in the village. Based on my previous judgment, there should be two ghosts in this village. One is wandering around the village, killing other isolated ghost controllers without any restraint. The other ghost is inside this coffin.”

Yang Jian glanced at Zhang Han and pointed to the coffin.

“Now, you have to act with me. Open this coffin and release the ghost inside.””If anything unexpected happens, there’s nothing else to say, we’ll have to fight for our lives. At that time, the suitcase in your hands, and the body bag in mine, will become the containers to imprison these two ghosts.”

“I… I understand.”

Zhang Han was on the verge of tears.

Just when he thought there was a glimmer of hope, a chance to survive, he didn’t expect to be faced with this terrifying task again.

He sincerely hoped that the heavens would bless him to leave Huanggang Village alive.

“Let’s start opening the coffin.”

Yang Jian found the crowbar that had been left in the spirit hall earlier and tossed it to Zhang Han.

However, just as they were about to start…

“Cough, cough.”

A weak and feeble cough, like that of a person on their deathbed, suddenly rang out again.

But this time, the sound didn’t come from beside them.

It came from… the red lacquered coffin in front of them.

As the coughing subsided.

The next moment.

The coffin that Yang Jian had previously tried to pry open with all his strength, was now slowly opening with a creaking sound.

A bloodless, pale hand stretched out from inside the coffin.

“Yang Jian!”

Zhang Han shouted, his face covered in cold sweat.
