Zhang Guanxing had recovered his memory of death and assimilated part of the resentment. Most importantly, he did not lose his mind.
Han Fei had reached his limit. He loosened his grip and his body fell backwards uncontrollably. Thankfully, the black anaconda slithered out from the ghost tattoo to cushion Han Fei's back.
His limbs shook uncontrollably and his heartbeat slowed. The large amount of Yin energy that entered Han Fei's body caused serious damage. His blood was almost frozen and the surface of his skin was frighteningly cold.
'My stamina is still too low.'
Lying on the bed, Han Fei found it difficult to even move.
This was the first time he faced off against a lingering spirit and the result was devastating. If he did not rely on the paper doll to deliver the final blow, he would have no chance of winning even if he gave it his all.
'After the Yin energy enters my body, I can hold on for about 100 seconds. During this period, I can resist part of the lingering spirit's attacks and my physique will improve. This power is more suitable for escaping.'
The ghost tattoo flickered on and off. Han Fei lay in bed covered in wounds. His face was contorted but his mind was trying to come up with a better way to escape.
Half an hour passed and Han Fei received a notification from the system.
"Notification for Player 0000! You've completed Grade G Hidden Mission — Back to Your Face.
"Obtained basic mission reward + 1 skill point, friendliness level with Zhang Guanxing increased by 20.
"Due to mission completion rate over one hundred percent, additional double EXP and additional hidden mission reward — Sturdy Back.
"Sturdy Back (Unique passive skill, cannot be upgraded with skill points): Strengthens the defense of the back. Damage dealt to the back from curses and lingering spirits will be reduced.
"You've successfully challenged 3 school ghost stories. Grade F Hidden Mission Jin Sheng's School Ghost Stories completion rate is 3/7."
Han Fei's heart slowly calmed down. Now he only needed to hang on for 3 hours and he would be able to quit the game.
Zhang Guanxing stayed by his bedside worriedly. He did not know what to do. Towards Han Fei, other than gratitude, there was also some guilt.
The person who hurt him was still on the loose but the person who helped him was accidentally injured.
"Sir, should I go to the school nurse's office to see if I can find any bandages or medicine?"
"No need. Just stay in this dormitory and don't run around." Han Fei managed a smile. "I've lost my ability to fight. This building is extremely dangerous. We'd better not separate."
"Then teacher, the injuries on your body …"
"Don't worry about me, go check on the wishing can first." Han Fei looked at the black can apologetically.
"There are a few more cracks, but it shouldn't shatter for now. After all, it is a curse that has been circulating in this school for a long time." Zhang Guanxing had completely recalled his past memories. He was now very mature and very reliable.
Grade G Cursed Objects contain the malicious thoughts of many people and various negative emotions. One could say that the Cursed Object itself is created from the malice of humans. Even if they are damaged, they can recover as long as they can absorb the malice. " Zhang Guanxing closed the lid and placed it next to Han Fei's bed. "But this is the first time I've seen someone use a cursed object in such a way."
Zhang Guanxing was reminded of the scene when Han Fei smashed 'his' head with the black can. He had a feeling that Han Fei was a very special person.
'I'm lacking a suitable weapon. My original plan was to smash this can and use the cursed fragments as knives but I didn't expect it to be so sturdy.' Han Fei used all his strength to raise his arm to lightly touch the black can. He still could not put it into his inventory. 'Looks like it still doesn't recognize me as its owner. In that case, don't blame me for being cruel in the future.'
Zhang Guanxing had no idea why Han Fei would go against the black can. He speculated that Han Fei had suffered greatly when he first entered the black can.
"Guanxing, do you mind closing the door and windows? I have some questions to ask you." Han Fei thought about it before asking, "Have you met an old man at this school? He has the same teacher's ID as I do and he used to work at this school. "
"An old man?"
"That old man's face is kind and amiable. He smiles at everyone he sees."
"You mean Teacher Fu Sheng?" Zhang Guanxing sat next to the bed. His emotions fluctuated slightly like he was afraid. "Of all the teachers at this school, he is the oldest. He looks to be in his sixties. He is kind to every student but unfortunately, he disappeared."
"Fu Sheng? Resurrected? " Han Fei narrowed his eyes. He finally knew the name of the previous building manager even though it was probably a fake name. "Teacher Fu and I are neighbors. The main reason I'm here is to look for him."
"You're here to look for Teacher Fu?" Zhang Guanxing shook his head. "I have no idea where he has gone."
"Can you tell me what you think of him? Did he do anything to you? "Han Fei was more curious about that.
Zhang Guanxing's expression shifted. Fear crept into his eyes. "In a way, Teacher Fu is very similar to you. When I first found myself unable to control myself, he 'kindly' helped me control myself."
"How did he do that?"
"When my soul was about to dissipate, I forcibly stripped away the memories that contained hatred and resentment. The process was very painful, and the scariest thing was …" Zhang Guanxing's face was bitter. "When I woke up again, the memory of death had been stripped away. I even forgot that I had been beaten to the point where my soul was about to dissipate. When I saw him again, I thought he was kind and friendly, he was a good person. "
The previous manager had chosen the path of destroying the cryptic world so his teaching method was more violent and Han Fei could understand that.
Fu Sheng's idea was simple. Destroy the despairing and horrible things and leave behind the last shred of humanity.
His method of dealing with ghosts was similar to Western Medicine. Han Fei, on the other hand, was more like a combination of Western Medicine and Western Medicine, internal and external conditioning.
"Is that all your impression of the teacher? Did he do anything strange at the school? " Han Fei's work id was left behind by the previous building manager. When he entered the school with the id, he was sent directly to the hostel.
The previous building manager would not waste his time, so there had to be something inside the hostel that Han Fei needed.
Under such circumstances, Han Fei ran into Zhang Guanxing. There were many students at Yi Ming Private Academy but only Zhang Guanxing appeared to be affected by the previous building manager. Therefore, Han Fei had a feeling that the previous building manager wanted him to run into Zhang Guanxing.
Everything was interconnected. It was both a test and an opportunity.
"He is an old man who is kind to everyone. He never argues with anyone and the students like him … By the way, there is a boy who appears to be very afraid of him."
"Who?"
"The boy is from the first grade, his name is Jin Sheng."
"Do you know his current location?" Han Fei had a feeling the main mission was about to surface.
"I remember when Mr. Fu was' educating 'me, he had stripped away the resentment and memory of death from me and locked them inside a cupboard under a podium on the 4th floor of the education block. After who knows how long, Jin Sheng opened the cupboard. After he released my resentment, he crawled into the cupboard. "
After absorbing the resentment, Zhang Guanxing's lost memory returned. He told Han Fei a very important clue.
After Han Fei found out where Jin Sheng was hiding, he reminded Zhang Guanxing not to reveal his location to anyone else. There were many 'things' at the school looking for Jin Sheng.
