Chapter 173 Ye Zhen in the Wax Museum

Inside the wax museum, a raging fire was burning, illuminating the entire store.

Several wax figures that were originally unable to ignite also showed signs of melting under the burning of the will-o'-the-wisp.

Tick ​​tock!

Wax began to drip.

In the firelight, the entangled wax figures also moved, turning their heads to look at Li Jun who was setting the fire.

Then an invisible supernatural attack came. The green ghost fire that was originally burning and jumping continued to dissipate under the gaze of the wax figure. Soon all the ghost fire released by Li Jun was extinguished, and the wax museum returned to a dim environment again.

Li Jun only felt that the ghost fire on his body was suppressed by a more powerful spiritual force and he could not use it. Moreover, his body began to show signs of waxing, and a handful of wax powder fell off when he rubbed it hard.

The ghost in this wax museum is so fierce!
"He is indeed very fierce, no wonder he was trapped!"

Wang Xiaoming clenched his fist with one hand and punched out from the air. Then a transparent giant fist appeared out of thin air in front of the wax figure and hit the wax figure horizontally.

Bang!
Several wax figures were knocked away by the giant fist, leaving only a wax figure of a young man standing there. Wang Xiaoming then waved at the wax figure that was knocked away.

Under the domineering erasing power, the several wax figures that were knocked away quickly became illusory, leaving only a wax figure of a graceful woman.

The female wax figure had an angry expression on her face and stared at Wang Xiaoming, as if she was angry about the sneak attack just now.

"Professor, let me do it!"

Li Jun took out an arm-long black banner from somewhere and waved it at the female wax figure. A black line flew out from the banner and landed on the wax figure.

The female wax figure suddenly showed a look of fear, and her mouth opened and closed but no sound came out. Where the black line fell, a black stain spread all over the body of the wax figure, just like clear water dripping with black ink.

Immediately afterwards, Li Jun waved the Death Banner twice again, and two black lines fell on the female wax figure. Soon, the originally lifelike wax figure turned pure black and lay on the ground motionless.

"Professor, this evil spirit has been forcibly suppressed and cannot recover in a short time." Li Jun said with a pale face: "It's a pity that we didn't bring the golden container this time, otherwise we could have taken it away."

Just now, he forcefully used the Death Man's Banner three times, causing a backlash. The arm holding the Death Man's Banner began to turn black, and the Death Man's Banner, which had originally been dead, was gradually reviving.

"Stretch out your hand, let me show you." Wang Xiaoming waved to Li Jun and said, "Yes, it's the hand holding the dead man's banner."

"Professor, what about the other wax figure?"

"Don't worry, he's not a ghost."

"..."

Li Jun stretched out his arm in a daze, only to see Wang Xiaoming close his eyes and recite a few words silently. The originally somewhat violent Death Banner suddenly became quiet, and the blackened arm began to fade. After a few seconds, everything returned to normal.

Looking at the obedient Dead Man's Banner in his hand, Li Jun suddenly thought, Wang Xiaoming, who can easily suppress supernatural weapons, is already much stronger than the ghost riders in the headquarters?

It felt redundant for the headquarters to ask him to protect Professor Wang. With Professor Wang's current strength, he only needed to pick up a few powerful supernatural weapons, and two or three elite ghost riders would not be his match.

When Li Jun came to his senses, he saw Wang Xiaoming squatting in front of the wax figure that was suppressed by the Death Banner. He did not know how he had used to put the wax figure into an unknown space.

Then he came to the last undamaged wax figure and looked it up and down.

Li Jun stepped forward and asked, "Professor, is there something wrong with this wax figure?"

Wang Xiaoming nodded and said, "Don't you think he looks like someone?"

Like a person?

Li Jun looked at the wax figure of the man carefully. He found that this wax figure was different from the other wax figures in the store. The other wax figures, both male and female, were lifelike, as if they were made by masters, but this wax figure was very rough, like a finished product made by a novice who had just learned it not long ago.

Although this wax figure looks horrible, one can still see a hint of familiarity between its features, as if one has seen it somewhere before.

"This is Ye Zhen!"

Seeing that Li Jun couldn't remember the answer for a while, Wang Xiaoming stopped keeping him in suspense and gave him the answer directly.

"Ye Zhen?" Li Jun asked in surprise, "How did he become a wax figure?"

As a well-known top ghost rider in the country, Ye Zhen's name is well-known. Although the wax figure just now was a little difficult to deal with, it was not able to suppress Ye Zhen.

"Judging from the fact that the wax on his body has not yet been removed, there must be some evil spirit lurking in this wax museum."

Wang Xiaoming used the power of the Wilderness of Knowledge to remove the wax on Ye Zhen's body, and said, "It is very likely that he was too careless and was attacked and restrained by a fierce ghost."

"Professor, can he still be saved?"

As the boss of the Supernatural Forum, if something happened to Ye Zhen, the forum would probably be in chaos.

"Help!"

As Wang Xiaoming finished his words, the wax figure in front of him seemed to shed its skin, and a human figure emerged from it.

After the figure emerged from the wax figure, he quickly walked to the side and patted the wax that had not yet fallen off his body, complaining, "Damn, I'm really suffocating!"

Li Jun walked up to Wang Xiaoming and said to the figure, "Are you Ye Zhen?"

The figure stopped what he was doing, revealing a young and flamboyant face, and said, "Yes, I am Ye Zhen. Thank you for saving me just now. I will definitely repay you."

"We'll talk about repaying you later," Wang Xiaoming stepped forward and said, "I'm curious about how you got trapped here?"

Ye Zhen showed an embarrassed look on his face, and said awkwardly: "The evil spirits here have no moral principles and attacked me alone. I was careless for a moment and didn't dodge, and then..."

As he was talking, Ye Zhen's face changed and he said hurriedly: "Let's leave first. I remembered that there is still a scary ghost in this wax museum. It was it that attacked me in the end and trapped me here."

"It's too late!" Wang Xiaoming looked towards the exit and said solemnly.

I saw that the exit that originally had only half a door had disappeared, along with the windows of the wax museum. The surrounding walls began to peel off and white wax oil was flowing out.

Looking at the wax oil approaching, Wang Xiaoming felt a strong sense of threat coming towards him.
"Damn it!" Li Jun's face looked a little ugly.

"If you don't let me go, I will turn your world upside down!" After seeing that he was trapped, Ye Zhen's face suddenly showed a defiant look.

Wang Xiaoming's eyes flickered as he scanned the wax museum. "I didn't expect this evil spirit to be a building. The wax museum is the evil spirit's body. Its spiritual power is also incredibly high. No wonder it was able to escape my eyes at the beginning."

At the same time, Ah Hong, who broke into the Ghost Road, also came to the wax museum.

At this point, the wax museum no longer looked like the shop it was at the beginning, but instead looked like a large, wriggling monster.

The red and white lanterns originally hanging at the door turned into the monster's eyes, and the store door turned into the monster's mouth.

The entire store is made of wax oil and can be changed at will.

"Oh no, the professor is in danger!"

Sensing the terrifying spiritual power emanating from the wax museum, Ah Hong hurriedly prepared to take action, but she saw an even more powerful spiritual power erupt from the wax museum, with a bang, a big hole was opened in the wax museum, and then three figures flew out and fell to the ground.

Ah Hong looked carefully and saw that it was Wang Xiaoming, Li Jun and a young man. He knew the young man, and he was Ye Zhen, the administrator of the supernatural forum.

As the three people left, the wax museum, which had been squirming constantly, returned to its appearance as a shop, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

"professor!"

Ah Hong stepped forward and greeted.

Wang Xiaoming nodded, then asked, "Why are you alone?"

"Menggui Road has mutated and is rejecting outsiders," Ah Hong explained. "I was not stopped because I own a shop on Menggui Road."

Then Ah Hong briefly talked about her last experience on the Haunted Road. By coincidence, she became the owner of a tattoo shop and she could send people trapped on the Haunted Road out.

"If that's the case, there shouldn't be many people trapped this time." Wang Xiaoming ordered: "Next, we will split up and look for ordinary people trapped here. Meet at the tattoo shop in ten minutes."

"Professor, your safety is the most important. Let me protect you and leave first." Ah Hong said hesitantly.

"what?!"

Ye Zhen widened his eyes, looked at Ah Hong with a strange expression and said, "He still needs protection? Do you know that his strength is almost catching up with mine!"

Ah Hong looked at Li Jun in confusion, and Li Jun nodded and said, "We were able to escape from the wax museum this time, thanks to the professor, otherwise we would probably have been trapped inside and died."

"Hey, I also put in a lot of effort, okay?" Ye Zhen patted his chest and said, "And even if I get trapped, I won't die. At worst, I can just sleep."

Seeing both of them say this, Ah Hong felt relieved and said, "Okay, then we will search separately."

Just when everything was going well, they had another disagreement about the grouping. Ye Zhen insisted on searching one direction of Menggui Road with Wang Xiaoming. Ah Hong and Ye Zhen were not happy about it. Finally, Wang Xiaoming couldn't stand it anymore, stopped them and agreed to Ye Zhen's request.

Ah Hong and Li Jun left one after another, while Ye Zhen followed Wang Xiaoming like a follower.

"Hey hey hey!"

Ye Zhen said confidently: "You are Wang Xiaoming from the headquarters, right? I recognized you at first sight. I didn't expect that you are also a ghost rider, and your strength is not inferior to mine."

"Is this the reason why you insist on teaming up with me?" Wang Xiaoming said lightly.

Ye Zhen nodded and said, "I heard that all the supernatural weapons in the headquarters were made by you. I would like to ask you to forge a powerful supernatural weapon."

"If you want supernatural weapons, you can exchange them with contribution points. I remember that there are quite a few supernatural weapons listed on the headquarters contribution list."

"Those supernatural weapons are not what I want. They are too weak. I want to design a supernatural weapon myself, and I need you to help me build it."

"Why should I help you? Give me a reason."

"I've already joined the headquarters, isn't this a good enough reason?"

"no!"

"I'm too lazy to guess, just tell me directly, what do you need me to do?"

"All you have to do is agree to participate in a special experiment."

"So simple?"

"It's that simple!"

"A word is settled!"

"It's hard to chase a horse!"

There are no fierce ghosts on Ghost Road, which makes it very easy for Wang Xiaoming and his team to search for survivors. They quickly searched Ghost Road and brought all the survivors to the door of the tattoo shop, including three drivers.

Unlike other shops on Ghost Road, this tattoo shop is closed with the lights turned off and is not open for business.

Ah Hong stood at the door of the store and shouted, "Everyone follow me in, and remember not to touch anything inside, otherwise I can't guarantee that you can get out alive."

More than a dozen survivors nodded repeatedly, saying they would absolutely follow orders.

Seeing this, Ah Hong walked up to Wang Xiaoming and explained, "Professor, although I have become the owner of the tattoo shop, there are still many dangerous items in it that I cannot control."

"Don't explain too much, let's go!" Before Wang Xiaoming could say anything, Ye Zhen said impatiently, "The animations I'm following have been updated for several days."

Ah Hong looked at Ye Zhen coldly and said nothing.

“Since there is danger, I will take them into the ghost realm first and release them after we get out.” Wang Xiaoming directly mobilized the ghost realm of the pencil case and took the survivors present into the ghost realm.

Ah Hong and the others were afraid of the evil spirit reviving, so they didn't dare to waste the use of the evil spirit's power, but Wang Xiaoming was not afraid.

"Professor, I..." Ah Hong hesitated to speak.

"Okay, stop talking and let's go!" Wang Xiaoming said nonchalantly.

After taking a deep breath, Ah Hong was the first to walk into the tattoo shop.

As Ah Hong walked into the shop, the tattoo shop gradually became brighter, as if it was open for business.

Wang Xiaoming followed closely and walked into the store. Compared with the wax museum, the tattoo shop was much smaller, and the only light source was the tungsten filament bulb hanging on the ceiling.

Under the light bulb is a large round table with some sundries on it, including dyes and pictures, like a tattoo workbench.

After passing the large round table, you will see a wall covered with portraits. All of these portraits are of terrifying ghosts. When Wang Xiaoming looks over, these ghost portraits will respond. People who are not very courageous will probably be so scared after seeing this scene that they will not be able to sleep all night.

Fortunately, he had taken all the survivors into the ghost realm in advance, otherwise there would have been chaos looking at these scenes.

"Professor, here!" In the corner of the wall, there was a wooden door. Ah Hong was standing at the door and waving, "You can leave through the door."

"Your place is more convenient," Ye Zhen stepped forward and commented, "Before, I would only leave after defeating the evil spirits in the store. Yours is much easier."

Ah Hong had no expression on her face and pretended not to hear Ye Zhen's words.

With a creak, Ah Hong opened the wooden door. There was thick fog outside the door, and buildings in the distance could be vaguely seen.

As I walked through the wooden door, the thick fog in front of me dissipated, revealing the afternoon sun, and various noisy voices began to appear in my ears.

Out!
Wang Xiaoming let out a long breath and felt very refreshed. This encounter with the ghost road might seem dangerous and unlucky to others, but to him it was luck and opportunity.

Sensing the wax figure of the evil ghost in the wilderness of knowledge, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. Imprisoning this evil ghost was his greatest achievement on the ghost road.
