In less than a night, Yang Jian had figured out many things.

If there was a hundred percent chance of solving this paranormal incident, it would definitely be impossible. However, in front of this group of people from the cockroach club who lacked confidence, he had to sound very confident.

How could he get them to risk their lives if he didn't convince them?

Upon hearing Yang Jian's words, Zhang Yiming, Ye Jun, and Zhang Han all looked at him.

Their eyes did not show surprise, but rather suspicion and distrust.

"Such a big talk, can you really solve the paranormal incident in Huanggang Village?" Ye Jun suddenly sneered. "You can't just brag like that. Last night, you saw it yourself; within an hour, two ghost masters died."

"He Sheng and Ouyang Tian didn't even have a chance to revive. I'm starting to suspect that you deliberately deceived us to come here before."

Yang Jian calmly said, "If you don't believe me, why did you come back?"

"The whole village is sealed off. We can get in, but we can't get out. Do you think we don't want to leave? You didn't plan to leave before, did you already know the village was sealed off and were just watching us for fun?" Ye Jun was furious.

Unable to leave, he was very irritable and gradually could no longer tolerate Yang Jian.

He believed that if he were to die in Huanggang Village, he would take revenge on the club before he died.

Yang Jian said, "With that attitude, there's nothing to talk about?"

The more silent Zhang Yiming waved his hand and said, "Ye Jun, forget it. At this point, why argue? Yang Jian, do you have confidence in solving this paranormal incident?"

"If you are willing to cooperate, I can indeed solve this incident. But if you don't cooperate... to be honest, all three of you will die."

Yang Jian glanced at them and said very calmly.

"I had this suspicion when I encountered the sick ghost before, but your return confirmed it. Moreover, I won't leave the village casually... Two ghost masters died in this village, but in a paranormal incident, who doesn't die? To solve this, we must stay in the village."

Yang Jian snorted, "Fear of death only leads to quicker death. You were lucky this time, encountering the ghost without being attacked. But next time, you might not be so lucky. If I'm not mistaken, the ghost is nearby, looking for an opportunity. You unintentionally did something that didn't trigger a fatal condition."

Upon hearing this, the three of them were immediately alarmed and their faces changed.

"A fatal condition, what is that?" Zhang Han asked urgently, "What have you deduced?"

"Nothing, just a bold guess. If you tell me what happened last night, I can basically determine the ghost's behavior pattern... Once determined, confining the ghost won't be a problem."

Yang Jian said seriously, "That's why I said if you cooperate, this paranormal incident can be solved."

"Is what you say true..." Zhang Yiming smoked, still somewhat skeptical.

"Uncle, do you have any good ideas? If you have the confidence to confine the ghost, I'll follow you."

Zhang Yiming smiled bitterly, "In handling this incident, I admit I'm not as good as you. Actually, nothing much happened last night. After sensing the ghost nearby, the three of us stayed up all night... Strangely, we weren't attacked the whole night."

Sure enough!

Yang Jian's face tightened.

"Wait, you said you only determined the behavior pattern of one ghost. Are there more than one ghost in this village?"

Suddenly, Zhang Han's eyes widened and he asked urgently.

"Right, there should be two ghosts in this village... At least, in our encounters, there are two ghosts. Didn't you find anything strange about what happened last night?"

"But now isn't the time to talk about two ghosts. What I can confirm is that no one in this village can act alone, even ghost masters. Once alone, encountering the ghost will definitely lead to death."

"He Sheng and Ouyang Tian have already proven it. Being alone and encountering a ghost means certain death. You were safe last night because you were together, and the ghost didn't find an opportunity... or the conditions for killing weren't met."

Zhang Han was shocked, "Just as you said, we're safe when together, but certain death when alone."

"You're talking nonsense. If that's true, everyone in the village would be dead. How can so many people still live here?" Ye Jun couldn't help but curse.

Yang Jian glanced at him, "Are you sure everyone in the village is human? I found some information about Huanggang Village. A paranormal incident happened here half a year ago, and the village has been isolated. The villagers have disappeared... In other words, this village has become a ghost village. What we see isn't necessarily real."

"You mean everyone in this village could be a ghost?"

Zhang Yiming shuddered, his eyes narrowing.

He looked around.

There were at least dozens of elderly people staying here. If they were all ghosts, what would they be doing?

Isn't this just coming here to die?

"They might not be ghosts, but they are definitely not human," Yang Jian said.

"Your words are like nonsense. Since you can't be sure, I'll help you confirm."

Ye Jun coldly said, then pulled out a gun from his waist, opened the safety, and aimed at an elderly person nearby.

"You idiot."

Yang Jian suddenly grabbed his neck fiercely, "If you want to die, go away. Don't ruin my plans. I finally figured out something, and your gunshot will ruin everything. If you kill randomly, I'll kill you first."

"Are they your relatives? Do they deserve your concern?"

Ye Jun pointed the gun at Yang Jian, "Since you won't let me shoot, why don't you take a few bullets for them? We can settle the club's score from last time."

Since they can't leave the village, it's better to vent some anger.

"You're really brain-dead. Keeping you in the village will only cause trouble. It's better to kill you here. You're a liability, and letting you live is a mistake."

Yang Jian said with a hint of killing intent. Ghost eyes instantly appeared on his hand, forehead, and face.

At this moment, he really wanted to kill.

Whether these villagers are ghosts or not, they shouldn't be provoked, as they haven't posed any threat yet.

No threat means no need to offend them.

If Ye Jun shoots and confirms they are ghosts, what then?

Offending a group of ghosts means quicker death.

If they are not ghosts, there's no need to shoot. Why interfere with their seemingly normal lives?

"You can't scare me. We can't leave anyway, so I might as well fight you."

Ye Jun grinned, a bit crazy.

"Come on."

Yang Jian narrowed his eyes, and red light gradually emanated from his body.

"Ye Jun, calm down."

Suddenly, Zhang Yiming shouted.

Zhang Han's body also showed some abnormalities. He said coldly, "Yang Jian is right. Shooting will cause trouble. These villagers can't be touched. If we fight, I'll help Yang Jian, not you."

They all realized the terrifying consequences of shooting.

If these villagers are ghosts, will this shot provoke their revenge?

If so, this shot is suicide.

Only a fool would think of shooting a villager to test if they are real.

Three against one, no chance of winning.

Ye Jun was a bit out of control in this desperate situation, but he wasn't stupid enough to not understand the situation.

"Sorry, I was impulsive."

He stepped back and threw the gun on the ground.

"You should calm down. From your state, you're close to losing control," Zhang Yiming said.

Ye Jun's eyes flickered, but he looked at Yang Jian, "I've apologized. Can you let go of my neck now?"

"I think you're better off dead."

Yang Jian's killing intent didn't diminish. At this critical moment, he didn't want such a person causing trouble.

"Yang Jian, calm down. I know you had conflicts before, but now we need to focus on solving this paranormal incident. We don't have many people left. Losing another one will be detrimental to the big picture, right?" Zhang Yiming said.

Yang Jian's face remained unchanged, thinking about something, but slowly released his hand.

"Boys, arguing?"

At this moment, an old woman walked over and said, "Being young and energetic is fine, but you need to know your limits. A few words are enough, don't fight. If you cause trouble, you'll have to pay and might even go to jail. Don't be impulsive. Isn't there a saying, 'Impulsiveness is the devil'?"

"Don't worry, Auntie, we're not fighting. Just a few words, no problem," Zhang Han said with a smile, while observing the old woman.

She was old, with wrinkles on her face, looking a bit sickly, but kind and gentle, always smiling.

"That's good, that's good," the old woman smiled and nodded, then turned and left.

"Cough, cough." A weak, powerless cough sounded.

Instantly.

The four of them were startled and looked in the direction of the sound.

It was... the old woman.

Ye Jun's hands and feet turned cold, looking at the gun on the ground, feeling a strange sense of relief.

Thank goodness I didn't shoot.

If I had, who knows what would have happened.
