The Mysterious Resurrection of the Past of the Republic of China

Chapter 9 Li Qingzhi’s Story
Combined with the information that Li Qingzhi controlled the ghost that appeared in the original work, and the fact that all the people in these houses were chopped into corpses, Zhang Dong could tell what happened at a glance.

For some unknown reason, Li Qingzhi used the ghost's dismemberment ability to kill these people, and he himself suffered a price.

The densely packed small wounds on his body should be the backlash effect of using the dismemberment ability.

Just when Zhang Dong wanted to ask Li Qingzhi something else, he suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. He immediately looked around vigilantly, but found no abnormality.

The ghost has revived?
Or was it Li Qingzhi?
Zhang Dong suspected that some kind of supernatural force was invading him, but then he realized that he would not be affected by other laws. Therefore, this weird feeling should be the price of stealing the laws just now, and the resurrection of the evil ghost of the law ghost.

I have lost a rule now.

It's just that this feeling is too strange, and I can't tell what the pattern I'm missing is. It's a bit like missing a certain emotion.
Panic was spreading and soon welled up from the bottom of Zhang Dong's heart. He felt a chill all over his body. He always felt that there were many eyes hidden in the darkness around him, spying on him. Just thinking about it made his scalp numb.

Suddenly, this weird feeling disappeared, and the depression in my heart also ended.

Zhang Dong shook his head and let out a long sigh of relief. He was really startled by this strange feeling, but fortunately there was not much danger.

At this time, a dark shadow flashed in the corner of his vision and walked towards him, making his just relaxed heart rise again.

The ghost figure that was dismembered in half has now recovered.
"This ghost recovered so quickly. The level of terror must be higher than the ghost in the original work."

Zhang Dong frowned and stared at it, turning his body slightly to one side to get out of the way.

The direction of the ghost is Li Qingzhi, and it wants to return to Li Qingzhi's body.

Li Qingzhi also stood up with difficulty at this moment, facing the thick ink shadow, as if he wanted to hug something, and merged directly with the ghost shadow.

As soon as the two came into contact, he trembled violently, his body spasmed uncontrollably, and he gasped for air with a painful expression on his face.

"Ah!~"

His pitiful wail echoed in the silent night.

Zhang Dong frowned deeply and moved slightly away from him, just quietly watching him endure the pain and gradually balance the evil ghost in his body.

It is very painful to control the evil ghost, but to bear the resurgence of the evil ghost is dozens of times more severe.

The ghost controller can only resist forcefully, without any way to relieve it.

This is the price for gaining the ability to be a ghost.

Soon after, Li Qingzhi's pain seemed to subside a lot, his breathing gradually became calmer, and he stood up from the ground.

He still had a ferocious expression on his face, and the sweat from his forehead rolled down to his neck, soaking most of his clothes and mixing with the solidified blood, exuding a strong smell of blood.

He seemed strong, though, and his forced smile returned after a few seconds.

Zhang Dong looked at this man and couldn't help but admire him. As the seventh elder, people are indeed very tenacious in terms of will. They can still smile under such pain, and their hearts are not generally strong.

No wonder he can stay alone in the dark Caesar Hotel from now on
Without this willpower, it would be impossible to resist.

After Li Qingzhi recovered his emotions, he saw that Zhang Dong's expression did not fluctuate much, so he guessed that he was also a ghost controller and said directly:

"Every time I can't bear the resurgence of Li Gui, I can only rely on this method to relieve myself."

Zhang Dong said: "But the moment it returns to your body, your pain will be many times more intense than before."

"The physical pain is not the most terrifying thing, the most terrifying thing is the mental pain." Li Qingzhi said with lingering fear, "Every time it goes out, it will kill people uncontrollably, and then it will kill the people it kills." Bringing back the memory, that time was my nightmare." Zhang Dong's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, recalling another ability possessed by the complete ghost in the original work.

The ghost head can steal the memories of living people and save them. However, when the ghost master accepts these memories, the pain will come like a flood that bursts the dam.
There is no way to relieve it, but to bear it down.

He gently patted Li Qingzhi on the shoulder to express his high respect. For such a mysterious character in the original work, judging from his first contact, he still had a good impression.

"If it's convenient, can you tell me your story?" Zhang Dong asked straight to the point.

To be honest, he was still very interested in Li Qingzhi's past. He was one of the few Seven Elders who barely appeared in the original work.

There is even less information about him as a ghost.

Li Qingzhi paused and said, "I don't have much of a story. I used to be a blacksmith, working with a master, making weapons such as swords and guns."

"Later, the master's son fell in love with my sister, humiliated her and sold her to the Red Mansion. In anger, I went to the house to avenge her. As a result, I was stabbed dozens of times, with cuts all over my body and all the blood drained."

"They left me still in the wilderness. I couldn't move at all, as if I was dead, but my consciousness had not dissipated. Soon, I saw a group of black spreading toward me in the wilderness, and then joined my body. The shadows blended together.”

"That black mass is the ghost shadow. It gave me a second life. Although the process of controlling it was painful, if I survived, I would have the opportunity to go back and take revenge."

After Li Qingzhi finished speaking, there was a trace of fire in his eyes, but the fire only flashed past and quickly went out. His pupils once again became as thick as shadows.

Zhang Dong's eyes moved slightly and said: "With your current strength, you should be able to kill them easily. Why don't you go?"

"There are also ghost masters among them, and their strength far exceeds mine. If the ghost shadows didn't own the ghost realm and were special, I would have died there long ago." Li Qingzhi's tone revealed a little helplessness.

"Ghost domain?"

There seems to be no ghost realm in the original work?
Zhang Dong turned his head slightly and looked at the shadow behind Li Qingzhi.

Suddenly, his body trembled, he covered his chest and spat out a large mouthful of dirty blood.

The dirty blood had turned black and gave off an unbearable fishy smell. It was obviously the blood of the dead that had decomposed for a long time.

"My body is already dead, and I rely on this shadow to stay alive." Li Qingzhi said with difficulty, "But now this shadow is about to revive, and I don't have much time left."

"People like you shouldn't die. At least you should live well until you finish what you should do." Zhang Dong suddenly felt sympathy.

"It's useless. I'm still a useless person. I can't even kill the most ordinary ghost master. I can only hope that after the evil ghost recovers, this shadow can kill those people for me." Li Qingzhi said.

"Where are those people?"

"The county seat dozens of kilometers away."

"Then I will kill these people for you." Zhang Dong said with serious eyes.

Li Qingzhi looked shocked and said, "Why do you want to help me? I don't even know your name."

Zhang Dong smiled lightly and said, "My name is Zhang Dong. You will know why I helped you later."

After saying that, he raised his hand, waved to the shadow behind Li Qingzhi, and murmured:
"I will steal the law that this ghost owns the ghost realm."
