Mysterious Resurrection: I am Jiang Shang, commanding ghosts and becoming a god
Chapter 297 Nie Yingping’s Life and Death
Chapter 297 Nie Yingping’s Life and Death
Chen Hao stared at the sky of Dajing City. The gloomy haze shrouded in gray and white weighed on his heart like a huge rock.
He knew that every moment of delay would increase the damage done to Dajing City by the ghost painting.
Once this city and the people in it are involved in the ghost paintings, even with Jiang Shan’s ghost domain protection, there is a high probability that he will still have to go through that with Jiang Shan.
As for why?
Chen Hao knew clearly that if the source of the ghost painting and Yang Jian disappeared, then he, who was cursed by the ghost painting, would be the best tool to attract the ghost painting.
“Chen Hao, there is nothing for you to do next. I have asked Cao Yanhua to arrange for Zhou Deng and the person in charge of the branch to come here. You just need to continue waiting here until they arrive and then you can leave.”
“By the way, when the time comes, tell them in detail about the ghost messenger’s situation and tell them not to act rashly. Deal with the ghost rider first. As for the ghost messenger, leave at least ten ghost riders to guard him and make sure no one is left alone.”
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Shan looked at Chen Hao and said calmly.
“That ghost’s code name is Ghost Messenger? Ghost Messenger is really not a good name. How come Zhou Deng, that bastard, has already joined his team? Damn, he’s lucky. He’s got a big boss.”
As he was thinking, Chen Hao suddenly seemed to realize something, and he immediately asked in confusion:
“Hmm? Don’t you want me to go with you to find that guy? I am still cursed by the ghost painting. If nothing goes wrong, as long as I enter the ghost painting world, the ghost will come to find me first.”
“It is for this reason that you are not required to participate in the next action. No one except Yang Jian knows the current condition of Gui Hua, but at least it does not look that bad.”
Jiang Shan lit a cigarette, looked towards the dormitory building where Yang Jian disappeared, and continued with a frown:
“If your presence breaks the balance between him and the ghost painting, leading to a failure in controlling it, this consequence will not be good news for anyone, so you continue to stay here. Remember, don’t stay too far away from the ghost driver.”
Through Chen Hao’s description, he has roughly guessed what the ghost’s current killing pattern is.
But guesses are just guesses after all. Now the ghost is in the ghost realm of the ghost painting.
However, it did not attack the ghost paintings as in the original book, which is enough to show that its killing pattern has changed greatly.
At least it won’t be as unsolvable as before, making people feel numb just by knowing it.
But even so, Jiang Shan still didn’t dare to relax. He planned to leave a clone behind when he entered the ghost painting world to look for Yang Jian, just in case.
It was precisely with this premise that he dared to let Chen Hao continue to stay here to guard the ghost catcher and Nie Yingping.
There is no news from Mr. Qin; the whereabouts of the ghost painting is unknown; the headquarters is completely destroyed; foreign ghost riders are involved; and Wang Chaling’s plan.
All these events combined have made Jiang Shan extremely anxious. He can now only try his best to stabilize the situation by robbing Peter to pay Paul.
This is not to say that Jiang Shan is incompetent or brainless.
Even if anyone else came, even if Yang Jian had his strength, to face the current situation.
The first things to be dealt with are only those matters that are within your capabilities and that can produce results the fastest.
Should I use the limited time to investigate Wang Chaling’s conspiracy?
Then let the ghost painting get out of control and invade the world wantonly, causing the headquarters to be completely destroyed and people’s hearts to collapse?
Or,
Should we first deal with the ghost painting, and then deal with the human problem after the overall situation is stabilized?
Compared to ghosts, Jiang Shan always believed that humans were easier to deal with. After all, death could effectively silence some sounds and make some mice feel scared.
As for Mr. Qin,
As the supernatural resurrection that runs through the entire story, he is one of the most powerful ghost riders.
Just after the plan to imprison the starving ghosts was launched, there was no news from him, and he did not even show up for nearly an hour after the riot in Dajing City broke out.
It is very likely that he was attacked by some highly targeted supernatural power, and Jiang Shan did not think that he had the ability or qualifications to rescue this “natural ghost rider” from the constraints.
Even though Jiang Shan now has the qualifications to compete with the ghost masters during the Republic of China era, he still doesn’t want to get involved in this mess.
Save Dajing City,
It was just because Jiang Shan simply didn’t want the domestic situation to become too turbulent, leading to the expansion of supernatural events and the appearance of some extremely terrifying ghosts.
But if doing so requires taking a huge risk, even his own life, Jiang Shan will never make such a choice. Using his own life, which does not belong to this world, to exchange for the life of someone in this world who has nothing to do with him?
“By the way, my phone was hacked into pieces. After I leave, call Cao Yanhua and tell him not to send anyone over rashly. Without knowing the situation of the ghost painting, it will only increase casualties.” Jiang Shan’s eyes were cold and his tone was unquestionable.
Chen Hao said: “I understand. I will handle the follow-up matters.”
When everything was arranged, Jiang Shan did not rush into the world of ghost paintings, but walked towards Nie Yingping.
Jiang Shan has a clear purpose for this ghost rider whose strength is comparable to that of a top captain. He tries to persuade him. Even if Nie Yingping does not choose to join the branch, keeping him alive can at least allow him to handle some supernatural events.
And judging from his participation in Zhang Xianguang’s Utopia plan, although his purpose of joining was not as pure as Zhang Xianguang’s, in the final analysis, there was no major problem with either his loyalty to Zhang Xianguang or his original intention of joining the plan.
For such a ghost rider, Jiang Shan’s arrangements for him are the same as those for Zhang Xianguang.
If he is willing to surrender, he will live, no matter what his identity is; but if he refuses to surrender, then the only way that awaits him is death.
“Boom~”
As the black whip hit Nie Yingping, the terrifying revival of the evil spirit in his body finally allowed him to break free from the illusion of the Ghost Eye and Ghost Realm.
“This is impossible. How could a junior possibly do such a thing?!”
When Nie Yingping saw Jiang Shan in front of him, his pupils suddenly shrank.
He couldn’t believe that he had been unknowingly affected by the illusion created by the ghost realm, and hadn’t noticed it for such a long time.
But what shocked him even more was that Jiang Shan, who used the ghost domain to restrict himself and Chen Qiaoyang, actually survived facing five Zhang Xianguangs alone.
And when Nie Yingping saw the old sword behind Jiang Shan, he was shocked and could hardly believe his eyes.
The appearance of this broadsword means one thing:
Zhang Xianguang lost.
And he lost completely.
Even the most important supernatural weapon in his hand was taken away, and there is a high probability that he is dead.
“Has the plan really failed?” Nie Yingping felt powerless and helpless.
He still wanted to fight, but the ghost domain of the dead-faced ghost combined with the suppression of the word “ghost” restricted him to the spot, and he could not use any supernatural means.
Zhang Xianguang, Du Hong and Zhang Ying seemed to be dead, not to mention the real Zhang Xianguang. Although he was the manager of the post office, he did not have much supernatural power.
Now he has been killed by Jiang Shan or locked up, and there is no information about him.
As for Chenqiao Sheep.
When Nie Yingping woke up from the hallucination, he found that he was alone.
According to his understanding of Chenqiao sheep, if nothing unexpected happened, there was a high probability that Chenqiao sheep had already run away.
Apart from Chen Qiaoyang, the half-baked one, he is the only real participant in the Peach Blossom Spring Project and the only person who can be confirmed to be alive.
And at this moment,
What Nie Yingping had to face was Jiang Shan, who restricted him and Chen Qiaoyang with just the ghost domain; and Zhang Xianguang, who killed five people with the same supernatural powers and was extremely difficult to deal with alone.
This kind of supernatural crushing was something he couldn’t achieve even if the evil spirit was resurrected.
“It seems that you have already guessed something. I have to say that Zhang Xianguang is indeed very strong. He is the strongest ghost rider I have ever encountered. It’s a pity that your plan is too ridiculous. How is your timid appearance different from that of a mouse?”
“Zhang Xianguang may not be a coward, but Chen Qiaoyang and the two ghost riders are. I think you are too. You are afraid, right? If you beg me, I should let you go.”
After noticing Nie Yingping’s gaze, Jiang Shan stared at him and spoke in a calm tone.
In fact, he didn’t have much ill will towards the Peach Blossom Spring project.
Although this plan is indeed very risky and has a certain degree of uncontrollability, it does represent the ghost handlers of an era and their ideas of putting an end to the supernatural world that they dare to put into practice.
The point is not whether this plan is feasible, but the “heart” of these ghost riders.
This is why Jiang Shan deliberately ridiculed this plan.
He wanted to see whether Nie Yingping’s “heart” was red or black.
“Ridiculous? Scared? Hahahaha, arrogant little thing, you said we are mice. You are just a mouse living in the cracks of the supernatural and stealing power. Please? Hahahaha.”
When Nie Yingping heard these two words, his calm expression suddenly turned gloomy:
“I became a ghost rider when I was 23 years old. I have been dealing with the supernatural for so long and have lived to this day. Do you think I would be afraid? Zhang Xianguang and I have been planning for decades. I can tell you very clearly that the Peach Blossom Spring Project is the only way to save the world at present.”
“It’s a pity that you youngsters who were blinded by supernatural powers intercepted us. If I’m not mistaken, your people are trying to control the ghost painting? It looks like he will fail. It’s really a sad era.”
As he spoke he slowly looked upwards.
at the same time,
The strange scarlet ghost characters covering his body were gradually dimming, and the suppression was weakened, but Nie Yingping seemed to have paid an extremely painful price for doing so.
In a place that Jiang Shan couldn’t observe, Nie Yingping’s five internal organs had suffered varying degrees of frostbite. At this moment, his internal organs were almost shattered at the slightest touch due to the influence of the supernatural.
It can be said that even if an ordinary person punched him now, he would be on the verge of death due to severe damage to his internal organs.
“So, you are very confident in your plan? If that’s the case, then your current behavior doesn’t seem to be that fair and aboveboard.”
After hearing what Nie Yingping said, Jiang Shan did not refute, but continued to ask calmly:
“Your tattoo looks great. It seems like you have found a way to master the spiritual balance. And your guess is indeed correct. Something has gone wrong with the ghost rider who controls the ghost painting. If the balance between them is broken, the ghost painting will be completely out of control.”
“And you know where this place is. I believe you are also aware of the impact of the destruction of the headquarters. If you are willing to tell me the method of this tattoo, the ghost rider may be able to successfully control the ghost painting.”
After seeing the evil ghost tattoo on Nie Yingping’s skin, Jiang Shan thought of the next topic to talk about.
He remembered that before he came to this world, he had seen some supernatural speculations on a certain forum.
For example, Li Jun once mentioned a place called Fengmen Village; there is also the charity cemetery under Liu San’s jurisdiction; and the ghost post office, and how the Caesar Hotel was formed.
There is too little of this world presented in the original book, just like an iceberg in the ocean, with only a small tip revealed.
Jiang Shan, who has been busy trying to protect himself, has never had time to explore the weird and mysterious things hidden in this world.
But when he saw the tattoo, he suddenly thought of these, and a name involuntarily emerged in his mind:
“Horror Tattoo Gallery”
However, Jiang Shan didn’t know the real location of the horror tattoo parlor, nor did he deliberately look for it.
He only knew that this place was mentioned once in the original book, but he never knew where it was.
“Haha, do you think I’m a fool? You’re trying to trick information out of me with just a few words. Forget it. I won’t tell you.”
Nie Yingping glanced at the tattoo on his body, a hint of hesitation flashed across his eyes, and then he continued:
“Don’t try to threaten me with Dajing City. After I die, no matter how big the flood is, it has nothing to do with me. Without the supernatural power of the mummy bride, you want to control the ghost painting? You are a bunch of lunatics who don’t know your place.”
After hearing what Nie Yingping said, Jiang Shan already knew what role he played in Zhang Xianguang’s plan.
It is clear,
Nie Yingping’s purpose is the same as Zhang Xianguang’s, to use ghost paintings to put an end to the supernatural, and he is also a down-to-earth action man.
Compared to Yang Jian, Jiang Shan did not have much murderous intention towards this kind of ghost riders.
Although he knew that he had no personal charm, Jiang Shan did not expect that he would be able to get Nie Yingping to join the branch.
He just didn’t want a ghost rider like Nie Yingping to become a victim of the dispute because of the differences in their ideologies.
Perhaps if the situation were reversed, Zhang Xianguang, Nie Yingping and others would not do this.
But he is Jiang Shan, the winner of this conflict. History is always written by the victors, so no one is more qualified than him to decide the life and death of these people.
