Chapter 141: A videotape composed of black and white portraits, time restarts
"Hey, are you leaving now?"
He Yuelian was shocked when she saw the ghost bride killing the painter and then leaving the place.
She looked at where the painter had been, ran over quickly, and picked up the coffin nail that had fallen on the ground.
"This thing seems very powerful. I can give it to Zhang Hao later."
He Yuelian took the rusty coffin nails in her hand and walked out contentedly.
Although the painter was killed by the ghost bride, at least he also got the coffin nails, so it was not completely useless.
And the other side.
After Zhang Hao dealt with the ink man, he set his sights on the killer.
He set his sights on the escaped projectionist again.
If the ghosts in the ink man and the painter might be helpful to the ghost bride, then the ghost in the projectionist might be something that could help Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao’s Black and White Ghost Cave is a black and white portrait, and the Projectionist is a black and white video.
If we can get the ghost in his hand and combine it with some of the supernatural powers of the ghost bride, perhaps the degree of Zhang Hao's weirdness can change again.
"Fake!"
The largest building in Floridian University should be a warehouse, filled with various goods.
The projectionist hid inside in fear, cursing constantly. Not far from the projectionist, there was an old wooden cross, but no one knew what it was used for.
He had already fled to the outskirts of the city, but he didn't expect that he would not be able to escape in the end.
No matter what means he used, he was still unable to leave this strange black and white city.
While the projectionist was hiding, suddenly, the sound of footsteps could be heard slowly in the distance.
"Are you coming?"
The projectionist heard the footsteps and looked solemn. He walked to the window, sticking half of his head out to observe the situation outside.
On the dim black and white road, a group that seemed unfamiliar to him was walking.
Four people in mourning clothes were carrying a black coffin and walking slowly forward. On the coffin was a pale figure. It was the strange guy who had just attacked them.
"That coffin, isn't it the coffin in the old man's hand?"
"And the people who carried the coffin."
The projectionist watched this scene and felt a little uneasy.
The being, who was not sure whether it was a human or a ghost, attacked the coffin bearers as soon as it appeared.
Now that the other party has started to move, the projectionist can't help but wonder if the coffin bearers have been killed?
The projectionist carefully observed the evil spirits carrying the coffin.
Those evil spirits were just like the person who suddenly appeared before. They were wearing white mourning clothes and their bodies were skinny, like mummies.
Each of them stretched out a hand and lifted the coffin in the middle high up, which looked extremely strange.
Moreover, this action gave the projectionist an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"This is the old man's movement when he was carrying the coffin!"
When the projectionist thought of this, he felt a chill on his back. That is to say, he was now an alien, otherwise he would have gone crazy after seeing this scene.
However, the next scene left him stunned.
The team moving forward in the distance entered an intersection and was now walking towards this side.
"What happened? Did they find me?"
The projectionist looked at the ground not far away, and the old cross that looked like two pieces of broken wood glued together was still there.
This is an extremely special cross, which the projectionist obtained during a supernatural event when he was a ghost rider in his early days.
This cross has the ability to block the senses of evil spirits. As long as you put the cross where the evil spirits can't see it, you can deceive the evil spirits' perception.
Even if he is in the lair of an evil ghost, as long as he is not seen by the evil ghost, no one can detect where he is in the lair.
In fact, Zhang Hao did not find the projectionist's location at this time.
However, he was able to determine through the ghost cave the location where the projectionist last disappeared.
In addition, he had a killing rule that anyone seen from the back of a black and white portrait would die, so he just realized that someone had triggered his killing rule.
Although the exact location cannot be determined, isn't it easy to find someone in one's own den?
Following Zhang Hao's sight, Zhang Hao in the black and white world began to look in various places.
In mid-air, black and white portraits fell down. With the help of the vision of these clones, Zhang Hao easily discovered the presence of the projectionist.
Arriving at the warehouse of the building in front, Zhang Hao took a look at the things in the warehouse and soon found the cross.
"Does the cross block my perception?"
Zhang Hao could feel that there was a faint spiritual aura on the cross, but perhaps for some reason, he was unable to perceive it specifically.
It should be because the cross itself has the ability to hide itself.
"Don't kill me, I can help you!" The projectionist stared at Zhang Hao and said in a deep voice.
"I know the location of the other kings. If you need me, I can take you to them."
"In addition to these kings, there are many other supernatural events. I also know where there are special supernatural objects."
When the projectionist saw Zhang Hao chasing him, he did not run away.
The moment the ghost den was unable to escape from the city and the cross became ineffective, he realized that it was impossible for him to escape normally.
Being able to become the king, the projectionist is naturally not a good person. Faced with the risk of possible death, he decisively chose to sell out his teammates.
"Other kings?"
Zhang Hao murmured and raised his head.
Now the painter should have been dealt with by the ghost bride, and the evil spirit on the coffin bearers has also been controlled by himself.
In this situation, the evil spirits of other kings would probably be of no help to me.
In the King's Organization, the only one who is still worthy of his care is probably the captain.
But that thing is hidden very deeply, so there is no need to pay much attention to it.
"I still like this ghost on you better."
Zhang Hao turned his head and looked at the projectionist. His emotionless eyes held a strange meaning, which scared the projectionist.
"You, you are not a human, you are a ghost?"
"But why? Why are you able to speak?"
Although the king's definition of a living person is broader than that in China, Zhang Hao's bizarre scene still scared the projectionist.
There is no trace of emotion in those eyes anymore.
After all, even the craziest king still has certain emotions now.
Zhang Hao did not answer the projectionist. As Zhang Hao approached, the projectionist quickly became silent.
The uncontrollable supernatural power took effect and the projectionist was completely suppressed.
However, Zhang Hao did not use the ghost's ability to seize the evil ghost's growth to control the ghost in the projectionist's body, but used the ghost's den to invade the projectionist's body.
For this ghost, what he wants is to complete and upgrade the black and white ghost den, not to increase the suppression quota of the ghost catcher.
Zhang Hao had a premonition that when he reached the extreme of a certain method, he would encounter an incomprehensible change.
This hunch came from some discoveries Zhang Hao made in Baishui Town.
Because he discovered that there were not as many evil spirits in the Seventh Elder's body as he had imagined, but they had cleverly formed a flawless attack method.
Of course, each ghost in the body of the Seven Elders is quite terrifying. After all, no matter how bizarre the attack is, it needs a certain level of terror as a blessing.
For example, in Meng Xiaodong's infinite invasion, the ghost she initially controlled was definitely not a ghost that existed in the past or the future.
The reason why Meng Xiaodong later exists for a period of time and exists at every time node is simply because Meng Xiaodong has completed this ability to invade the past and the future to a concept that is close to the extreme.
There is also Zhang Dong. Zhang Dong's erasure has taken the suppression of evil spirits to the extreme. Facing his suppression, even evil spirits cannot bear it and have to turn into ordinary objects.
"If there really is another world, then I need to find a way to find the ultimate route."
Zhang Hao muttered in his mouth. He knew very well that if there really was a world where Yang Jian existed, he would not have the opportunity to use the abilities of ghost messengers or starving ghosts to grow slowly. Because Yang Jian's body was a ghost baby, or a little starving ghost. He could not grow up by eating ghosts as fast as the other party.
The only way Zhang Hao could go in the end was to use a complete puzzle-piece method without any flaws to reach Yang Jian's strength.
If the incomplete evil spirits are regarded as incomplete logical codes, then the ultimate route envisioned by Zhang Hao would be a complete code without any loopholes.
It’s like Yang Jian’s ten-layer ghost den, which is a ghost den that Yang Jian cannot open. He can only get out by using the two ghost eyes together.
After opening this ghost den, Yang Jian will exist at any time in the past and future, and he can even bring people from the past to the present.
Zhang Hao had no idea what would happen when the black and white ghost den reached its extreme, but he knew that at that time, even if he only used the black and white ghost den to fight the enemy, he would not be weaker than the Seven Elders.
The invasion of the black and white ghost den went smoothly.
Even without the help of the ghost catcher, Zhang Hao's own terrifying level was enough to crush the projectionist.
After all, according to Zhang Hao's calculations, the strength of the Black and White Ghost Den should be similar to that of Yang Jian's Seven-Layer Ghost Den or Eight-Layer Ghost Den.
Zhang Hao couldn't tell whether it was the eighth or seventh level of strength, because the range of Zhang Hao's ghost den was restarted by the ghost catcher.
As for his personal restart, he has too many ways to restart.
The only conclusion he could make was that the current black and white ghost den was much stronger than the ghost den when he was in Baishui Town and had fully opened his red ghost eye to 60% of its spiritual power.
As the ghost den continued to invade, Zhang Hao also noticed that new changes were taking place in the black and white ghost den.
The black and white ghost cave seems to have a flowing effect.
"This feeling, like a video that keeps playing?"
Zhang Hao was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.
If the previous black and white ghost den was a frozen photo, except for Zhang Hao, the owner of the ghost den, everything else that was invaded and turned black and white was the background of the photo.
No matter what Zhang Hao did, the back view in the photo was frozen in a state and could not be changed.
Now the black and white ghost den is like a video, and Zhang Hao is the photographer. The entire black and white ghost den is like Zhang Hao’s photography range.
Even the tiniest flower in this ghost den has now been recorded by the ghost den.
"If the ghost den before was a series of photos, then now it is a video made up of photos."
"According to this principle, can I make everything in the ghost cave return to the moment of a certain photo?"
Zhang Hao looked at everything in the warehouse. He didn't expect that the projectionist's ghost had brought such a big change to his own ghost den.
Although he had the ability to restart the range before.
But that kind of restart is actually restarting oneself, but because of the characteristics of the ghost catcher, Zhang Hao himself is a den of ghosts.
That's why he can restart the ghost den, but this kind of ghost den cannot be controlled accurately.
This situation is like when Li Jun, Liu San and others were active in the ghost den of the ghost catcher. No matter how the ghost catcher restarted the scope, there were still traces of Liu San and others being killed in the ghost den.
And now, it is a real restart of time.
As long as the range is restarted, except for gold, everything, even the dead, must return to the time node that Zhang Hao wants.
Thinking of this, Zhang Hao tried it immediately.
The ghost den was unfolded by him, and scenes flashed through his mind like a video played in reverse.
Soon, Zhang Hao locked on a time node.
That was two and a half minutes ago.
At this time, the projectionist had just been killed by him and used as a puzzle piece to complete the ghost cave, allowing it to be upgraded to the level where it could use range restart.
As Zhang Hao thought about it, everything in the ghost cave soon became weird.
It was like the picture on a black and white TV from the 1980s or 1990s, when a videotape was played and then the picture kept rewinding.
Weird, scary, and incomprehensible.
As the scene continued to rewind, it soon froze on Zhang Hao standing there thinking.
"It actually worked. I returned to the desired time point precisely."
Zhang Hao raised his head and looked at the city that belonged to him two and a half minutes ago.
"If the range of my ghost den can cover the entire world, does that mean that I can exist in the past and the future?" Zhang Hao thought to himself.
In fact, this possibility exists.
Back when he was in Baishui Town, Zhang Hao's den of ghosts covered the entire world.
Although Zhang Hao's level of terror reached a very high level in that world, the evil spirits in that world were only 60% of the supernatural beings in this world.
In the end, Zhang Hao was unable to develop a range ghost that could restart time, and he ultimately had no idea whether he could exist in the past and the future through this method.
Increasing the terror level can increase the range and strength of the ghost den, but it will not increase the ability of the ghost den.
The projectionist in Baishui Town was unable to reach the strength required to complete the black and white ghost den.
"We will be able to cover the entire world sooner or later. Now we should consider how to complete the next stage of the Ghost Cave."
The initial strength of the black and white ghost cave is equivalent to that of Yang Jian’s sixth-level ghost cave. It can change reality. The characteristic of the ghost cave is that everything that has been invaded in the ghost cave will be forgotten by the outside world.
Later, as Zhang Hao controlled the ghost, the effect should have been upgraded to the seventh level of the ghost den, but the range and strength of the ghost den were much larger than the ghost eye.
As for the effect, it is that he inherited the ghost catcher's characteristic of turning into a ghost den, allowing Zhang Hao and the ghost den to become one. As long as the ghost den is not suppressed, Zhang Hao can restart himself without restrictions.
Zhang Hao can even achieve the effect of restarting a range by applying his own supernatural powers to the ghost den.
Now that the evil ghost in the projectionist has been completed, the ghost den has been transformed from a single black and white portrait into countless black and white portraits, thus achieving an effect similar to that of a videotape.
"If this trend continues, should I try to find a way to make the ghost cave have the supernatural power of walking out of the picture next time?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Hao couldn't help but look in the direction of the ghost bride.
This kind of supernatural power is probably the supernatural power of ghost paintings. It can come into reality from the portrait. Even a photo can be regarded as a portrait by ghost paintings.
However, it was obviously impossible for Zhang Hao to snatch the ghost painting from the ghost bride, so he had to think of other ways.
"Besides ghost paintings, are there any other evil spirits that have the ability to walk from a portrait into reality?"
"Shen Lin's ghost seems to have the ability to come out of memory."
According to the original story, when Shen Lin first met Yang Jian and his friends, he used the portrait to make them remember Shen Lin, and then he entered the reality through the invasion of Yang Jian and his friends.
However, the black and white portrait has the effect of making people forget, and the supernatural powers of these two ghosts conflict.
Zhang Hao closed his eyes, inexplicably missing the feeling when he was working with human skin paper.
If there was someone with parchment, it wouldn't be so troublesome for Zhang Hao to develop the supernatural.
The human skin paper will tell Zhang Hao where to get the evil spirit that can complement the ghost den's new abilities.
"In addition to the ghost painting and Shen Lin's ghost, Meng Xiaodong's ghost should also be able to do this, but the current Meng Xiaodong is still a little early for me."
"Perhaps I should think of a way to plan the human skin paper. If there really is another time and space, then Yang Jian would not exist in this world."
"And if there really was a future Yang Jian in this world, I should have been killed long ago."
Zhang Hao kept thinking, and possibilities appeared in his mind one by one.
He even thought of another possibility. Since he could now restart time, he could let Guichu return to a certain scene in countless videos.
Will my future self be able to restart time?
In this way, he actually doesn't need to fill in a whole new puzzle for the ghost den. He only needs to increase the strength of the ghost den. After it reaches a certain level, the depth of time he can restart will be improved.
Naturally, he has the ability to pull his future self to the present?
However, this kind of restart does not seem to allow the past self to move towards the future. This may be a flaw, and I don’t know whether the future self can make up for this flaw.
"It seems that I need to use more ghosts to deal with enemies in the future, so as to achieve the purpose of developing the use of ghosts."
The means of using supernatural powers need to be developed. Many evil ghosts become extremely strange after being revived by ghost controllers. In essence, this is because the ghost controllers have developed the evil ghosts' supernatural powers.
After the ghost rider dies due to the resurrected evil spirit, the evil spirit will habitually imitate the ghost rider's methods when using supernatural powers.
Although Zhang Hao now has a lot of supernatural powers, he has no plans to use too many of them.
After all, some supernatural powers that are not used frequently cannot be used to a very strong level in a short period of time.
I was a little out of shape today and couldn't concentrate. I wrote from about four o'clock to about ten o'clock to finish these two pictures. The update is a little late.
