Night.

On the bed on the second floor of the apartment building.

Yang Jian lay on the bed facing the ceiling, occupying almost the entire bed in a dominant manner.

Jiang Yan, wearing pajamas, didn't want to sleep on the floor, so she could only curl up pitifully next to him, guarding her own small space, like a maid in the landlord's house.

The two of them were already asleep.

With the lights off, the dim room seemed quiet, with only occasional car honks coming from outside.

But as a car's headlights flashed by the window, the originally dim room was illuminated a bit more.

The light changed.

On the wall behind Yang Jian, there seemed to be something moving in the darkness, undergoing changes that he was unaware of.

"Drip~!"

A car passed by, and the light once again shone through the window.

The room darkened again.

When the light shone on the wall at the head of the bed,

Suddenly, a pitch-black shadow appeared there mysteriously.

In theory, both Yang Jian and Jiang Yan were sleeping on the bed, so it was impossible for a shadow to appear in that direction.

However, the situation was indeed strange.

This shadow stood there like a person, and it was slowly moving.

If one observed carefully, they would notice that this shadow had no head.

There was nothing above its neck, only the bright wall. The shadow of its head seemed to have been forcibly cut off, as if it didn't exist at all.

Taking advantage of Yang Jian's sleep,

The headless ghost shadow once again began to act restlessly.

After all, it was a fierce ghost.

And it controlled the second ghost. The suppression between ghosts was not perfect. One side would always be stronger, and the other weaker.

To maintain balance, the ghost controller needed to control this balance themselves. Once they lost control due to carelessness,

It would be like a falling stack of blocks.

Everything that had been painstakingly built would collapse in an instant.

The crisis of the fierce ghost's revival would occur again.

At this moment, the headless ghost shadow slowly moved along the wall.

It went down the stairs, then walked towards the front door along the living room, as if it wanted to continue its obsession.

Piecing together a body.

The black shadow was stretched out, like a thin thread, and the headless ghost shadow gradually twisted. Before it could walk out of the front door, it had already been deformed and turned into an unrecognizable shape, leaving only a long black shadow on the ground.

After trying several different directions,

The headless ghost shadow still couldn't get too far away from Yang Jian.

It seemed to have become Yang Jian's shadow, unable to escape from this connection.

Finally, the headless ghost shadow slowly retreated and stood at the head of the bed.

It remained motionless, like a dead body.

It was unknown how much time had passed, maybe half an hour.

The motionless headless ghost shadow suddenly moved again, slowly reaching out towards Jiang Yan, who was sleeping beside it.

With no other choice, it could only choose this body.

However, just as its hand was about to touch Jiang Yan, it suddenly froze.

Like a machine, it had intermittent malfunctions.

It couldn't fully control its own actions.

But the most abundant things for terrifying beings were time and patience.

Another hour passed.

The headless ghost shadow moved again, this time touching Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan didn't feel anything and was completely unaware of the terrifying thing happening beside her.

However, as the headless ghost shadow gradually merged into Jiang Yan's body, its ghostly figure froze and suddenly became motionless.

At this moment, Yang Jian, who was sleeping, suddenly sensed something and opened his eyes wide.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a tall and thin headless shadow standing at the head of the bed, and half of its body had already merged into Jiang Yan's body.

Jiang Yan's face was pale at this moment, and her body was gradually becoming cold, but she was still sound asleep.

If she continued to sleep, she would probably be killed by this headless ghost shadow without even realizing it.

"Damn it."

Yang Jian's heart trembled at this moment, cursing silently. He immediately stopped the headless ghost shadow's actions.

As if embedded in its body, five ghost eyes opened at the same time.

A crimson light enveloped them.

Instantly, the headless ghost shadow was pinned down by the ghost eyes and fell to the ground, once again turning into a shadow.

Everything immediately returned to calm.

There was danger but no harm.

"If I don't pay attention to this headless ghost shadow, will it continue to act restlessly?"

Yang Jian sat up, furrowing his brows deeply. He had no sleepiness, only a sense of inexplicable fear.

Today, he finally managed to sleep relatively peacefully, without the restlessness of revival or being paralyzed on the bed.

But he didn't expect that after solving one hidden danger, another one was left behind.

In the future, he would have to be vigilant about this headless ghost shadow. Even Yang Jian himself didn't know when this ghost would act restlessly. The most reliable method was to be vigilant 24 hours a day and control any abnormalities, maintaining this fragile balance.

But did that mean he wouldn't be able to sleep all day and night?

Could a person endure that?

Yang Jian couldn't help but ponder.

"I thought I didn't have to worry about my own situation for the time being, but now it seems that it's only slightly better than before. The crisis of the fierce ghost's revival still exists, only the time has been extended."

Even if he controlled the second ghost, the crisis still remained.

The second half of the night.He hadn't slept all night.

He wasn't sure if it was due to some changes in himself, but he didn't feel tired.

These days, while Yang Jian was arranging for Jiang Yan to buy gold, he was also trying to figure out the pattern of the headless ghost's uncontrollable behavior.

He found out.

There was no pattern to follow.

The headless ghost would be out of his control at least three times a day, and at most six times.

And the duration of its activity was also uncertain.

At its longest, it could last more than an hour, nearly two hours, and at its shortest, less than a minute.

The fluctuations were significant.

It was entirely an uncontrollable variable.

However, the good news was that even when the headless ghost was out of control, it would not choose to attack him, but would choose to attack other people around him.

Jiang Yan had been attacked at least five times in the past few days.

Only she didn't know about it each time.

"How can I completely suppress the headless ghost?"

One day, Yang Jian opened a newly recast gold box.

Inside was a dark brown human skin.

In Huanggang Village, the human skin paper that could even devour ghosts was a more terrifying existence than the fierce ghost in Yang Jian's eyes.

Since that time, he had been extremely wary of this human skin paper, so much so that a few days ago, Yang Jian had specially had a new gold box made at the gold shop to put this human skin paper in.

The human skin paper inside the gold box was silent at the moment.

There were no black characters emerging, it did not respond to Yang Jian.

"This human skin underwent some kind of change that I don't know about after swallowing that ghost, and this change is still ongoing." Yang Jian began to ponder.

Since there was no response, he didn't ask more.

He immediately closed the box and locked it.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would not open it again.

This thing was very strange, he couldn't rely on it too much, lest he step by step into the trap set by the fierce ghost.
