Mysterious Revival

How long has it been since Yang Jian saw his own death information on the human skin parchment?

He thought that now, after becoming an anomaly and mastering various supernatural powers, he wouldn’t easily die in a supernatural event. Unexpectedly, after arriving in this so-called world from three years ago, he found he couldn’t survive a day, facing death here at ten past six in the evening.

If the result is true.

Then what kind of supernatural force could kill him now?

“The time of day and night alternation in Baishui Town is exactly six o’clock. If danger is coming, then it must start at six, and my death time is ten past six. So, with my current abilities, I only lasted ten minutes in this Baishui Town before I died?”

Yang Jian wasn’t scared by his own death information. He stayed calm, analyzing the situation.

“Even if I faced an S-level supernatural event, I couldn’t die within ten minutes. Besides, I can restart and turn around an inevitable situation.”

“But the death information on the human skin parchment can’t be doubted. It might reveal other important information or not tell me the reason for my death, but the outcome of death cannot be faked.”

“Yang Jian, you don’t look so well,” Wang Shanshan said.

Yang Jian snapped back to reality: “Seems like we can’t stay in Baishui Town. We need to leave.”

His first thought was to leave Baishui Town.

Only by leaving here can they stay away from danger and avoid the outcome of death most simply and effectively.

“Where to?” Wang Shanshan asked.

Yang Jian pondered for a moment.

What place would be safe at this time?

After thinking it over, there was no suitable place to stay.

Because now he’s not the Enforcement Captain from headquarters, going there would only make them cautious, not accommodating.

Going to the Ghost Post Office is not an option. The Ghost Post Office is about to lose control; Zhang Xiangguang’s plan is underway, and if he goes, he will have to face Zhang Xiangguang.

Going back home?

That’s an even worse plan.

The Ghost Dream incident hasn’t been resolved; he doesn’t want any more nightmares.

Thinking it over.

Yang Jian could only say, “Let’s return to Dachang City, at least we are more familiar with that place.”

“Alright, it’s up to you,” Wang Shanshan nodded, not refusing.

The reason she came to Baishui Town was that she had no choice.

With Yang Jian now here, such decision-making matters naturally follow him.

Without wasting any time, Yang Jian immediately took Wang Shanshan and the Ghost Child out of Baishui Town and returned to Dachang City.

In fact, Dachang City is not safe, still full of potential dangers. The only advantage is their familiarity with the city.

And a familiar place can provide a certain sense of security.

Soon.

They stopped near a quiet street in Dachang City.

“Three years ago, there was no place for us to stay in Dachang City. I don’t want to go home. I can’t be sure if the parents at home are really my parents, and Guanjiang Residential Complex isn’t an option—the construction isn’t even complete yet, and it’s not ours anyway,” Wang Shanshan said.

“I know, we won’t stay here long. We’ll have to find a way to leave soon,” Yang Jian replied as he took out the human skin parchment again.

He wanted to know, having returned to Dachang City and left Baishui Town, if the result would change.

“I am Yang Jian. When you see this, I am already dead… going back to three years ago, I died in Baishui Town at ten past six that night.”

The human skin parchment didn’t stay silent but revealed new writing.

However, incredibly, the outcome on it didn’t change at all. Yang Jian still died, and the time and place of death were exactly the same as before.

Yang Jian frowned, staring intently at that line of words on the human skin parchment.

Especially the last few key words: ten past six, died in Baishui Town.

“I have arrived in Dachang City, but the result is that I still died in Baishui Town. Such a result is absolutely impossible…even if I were to die, I should be in Dachang City.”

“If the information on the human skin parchment is still correct, then how should such a situation be explained?”

Yang Jian felt he couldn’t interpret this information anymore.

Previously, he thought he couldn’t possibly die; now, he believes he couldn’t die in Baishui Town.

Things are getting more and more absurd.

However, these changes gave Yang Jian a vague sense of danger.

Even without the information on the human skin parchment, Yang Jian understood deep in his heart that he must not stay in this world too long. The longer he stays, the more likely he is to encounter peril. He must leave here as soon as possible.

Seeing Yang Jian’s furrowed brows, Wang Shanshan glanced at the writing on the human skin parchment.

She paused when she saw Yang Jian’s death information, and then showed an incredulous look when seeing the death location.

“I understand.” Suddenly.

Yang Jian grabbed the human skin parchment and stuffed it back into his pocket.

“Understand what?” Wang Shanshan asked.

“I understand why the human skin parchment says I will die in Baishui Town at ten past six in the evening,” Yang Jian said coldly. “It’s not that the information is wrong, but that our thinking is wrong, because we never left the range of Baishui Town from the beginning.”

“But this is Dachang City,” Wang Shanshan hesitated.

Yang Jian allowed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth: “It’s just the apparent Dachang City. Maybe the real us are still trapped inside that wooden house, which is in the supernatural place of Baishui Town, and that’s why the human skin parchment says I will die in Baishui Town.”

“So it’s useless for us to go anywhere in this world, as at six, terrifying peril will appear and, in some way, kill us.”

“In other words, we’re trapped, trapped here.”

“I think more than just us have been here before. There must have been others, but I bet they didn’t survive a day, dying on the first night. This seems to be the rule of this place, leaving only one day for the living.”

Wang Shanshan said, “So we need to find a way out before six?”

“Yes, that’s our only chance. The prediction on the human skin parchment says even I would die, let alone you. If we can’t find the right method, the result is obvious.” Yang Jian’s eyes darkened.

The current time is still early, just after eleven in the morning.

In other words, he and Wang Shanshan have seven hours to find a way to escape.

But the human skin parchment boldly showed the outcome to Yang Jian, clearly determined that Yang Jian would not find a way out within these seven hours.

“Try connecting to Ghost Lake.”

Yang Jian decided to give it a try.

Once covered by the Ghost Lake water, one can connect to the real Ghost Lake.

Using this feature, Yang Jian could use Ghost Lake to escape from the supernatural site to any other place.

Soon.

His body began to grow wet.

The supernatural of Ghost Lake could be used, not interfered with.

Before long, water covered beneath Yang Jian’s feet.

Just as he thought he might try opening Ghost Lake to leave here.

The next moment.

A soaked, pale female corpse’s arm suddenly reached out from the water, grabbing Yang Jian’s ankle tightly, pulling him frantically into the depths of the water.

Yang Jian’s face changed sharply; he swung his cracked spear without hesitation to sever that arm, then quickly retreated to avoid the water.

At this moment, densely packed female corpses emerged in the depths of the water, drifting, eerie and terrifying.

“This is not the Ghost Lake I’m controlling; it seems to be the out-of-control Ghost Lake from three years ago.” He observed a little and ascertained the situation.

By using the supernatural of Ghost Lake, he unwittingly connected to this world’s Ghost Lake.

“So, I shouldn’t recklessly use the supernatural of Ghost Lake here. Otherwise, the real Ghost Lake might find me through the medium, and I’d be in big trouble.”

Yang Jian thought secretly, almost forgetting that there is also a Ghost Lake in this world.

Now that the two supernaturals are connected, it turns out he’s at a disadvantage.

After all, Yang Jian only mastered forty percent of the supernatural of the Ghost Lake, while the Ghost Lake in this world has a full one hundred percent.

Unable to rely on Ghost Lake, and finding no way out.

Yang Jian now faced a dilemma.

And time waits for no one.

Seven hours will pass quickly.

By then, the foreseen scenario by the human skin parchment might really happen.
