Chapter 209 Digestion and the Compass Car
These things are important.
However, Wang Xiaoming didn't care. He was only interested in things related to the supernatural and evil spirits. What he was thinking about now was his own experimental data.
Wang Xiaoming called Zhao Kaiming and prepared to conduct another physical examination on him.
Shen Liang, Wang Chaling and others left tactfully after seeing this. Only Ye Zhen remained standing there, smiling and saying:
"Professor, I also want to participate in your experiment. You don't need anything else. Just let me use my ghost power in a cool way like Zhao Kaiming."
As soon as Ye Zhen opened his mouth, everyone present frowned. They just felt that they could not understand Ye Zhen's train of thought. He participated in the experiment just to become cooler. Who would be like this as a serious ghost rider?
"The professor's research is all about how to make ghost riders stronger. How can there be someone like you?" Zhou Tong didn't know Ye Zhen, so he couldn't help but speak out.
Ye Zhen put his hands on his waist and raised his head and said: "Being handsome is a lifelong thing!"
"..."
Wang Xiaoming chuckled and said, "Sure, you promised me that you could participate in my experiment once, but you need to go to the headquarters, and we don't have the experimental conditions here."
Ye Zhen scratched his head and said suddenly, "Yes! How could I have forgotten about this?"
At that time in the Haunted Road, Wang Xiaoming agreed to forge a supernatural weapon for him because he agreed to participate in a special experiment.
Thinking of this, Ye Zhen felt relieved and left contentedly.
After finishing the chores, Wang Xiaoming came to the conference room in the suite, then took out an instrument that looked like a sleeping chamber and asked Zhao Kaiming to lie down in it.
This instrument was invented and assembled by Wang Xiaoming himself and has very powerful detection capabilities.
When Zhao Kaiming lay down in the chamber, the lid closed automatically. At the same time, with a beep, the green light indicating operation on the instrument lit up.
After being busy for a while, Wang Xiaoming finally got the latest data of Zhao Kaiming's body. Compared with before he controlled the wish pendant, Zhao Kaiming's body showed 0.3% of evil spirit erosion.
"What's wrong, Professor? Is there something wrong with my physical data?"
Seeing Wang Xiaoming frowning, Zhao Kaiming was shocked and asked quickly.
Wang Xiaoming nodded: "Your body is showing signs of being eroded by evil spirits."
"Um?!"
Zhao Kaiming touched his hands and feet, and after carefully sensing them, he said, "Professor, I feel that there is nothing wrong with my body!"
"That's because the degree of erosion is too slight!" Wang Xiaoming threw the tablet displaying the data to Zhao Kaiming, and then packed up the instruments he had just taken out.
Too weak?
Zhao Kaiming looked at the tablet in his hand and found the project of supernatural erosion. When he saw the growth of 0.3%, he breathed a sigh of relief.
This level is really too weak, almost like nothing.
Moreover, the headquarters now has a healing formation, so he is not afraid even if the spiritual invasion is greater. It’s just that the professor’s experiment is not so perfect.
On the other side, Wang Xiaoming came to the study room of the suite, moved away the tables, chairs and benches, and made room, preparing to use it as a temporary experimental space.
During this period, Cao Yanhua from the headquarters also called and asked about the time he would return to the headquarters.
Wang Xiaoming thought that since he had gone abroad, he couldn't come here for nothing, so he decided to stay here for one night and try stargazing to digest the potion.
It's seven o'clock in the evening.
Wang Xiaoming walked out of the study. He had reviewed the situation many times but still couldn't find the root cause of the spiritual invasion.
"It seems that we can only wait until we return to headquarters tomorrow to study Wang Chaling's family curse."
The Wang family curse can perfectly control multiple evil spirits. It is the most important part of his research on curse control. I think the answer can be found there.
After finishing the dinner brought by Zhou Tong, Wang Xiaoming began to learn astronomy. It was not until about nine o'clock that he pulled himself out of his studies, sensed the magic potion in his body being digested, and nodded with satisfaction.
Seeing that it was getting late, Wang Xiaoming called Zhou Tong to drive the ghost taxi to a small hill outside the city.
This place is far away from the city and has no light pollution, making it the best place for stargazing.
Taking out a specially made telescope, Wang Xiaoming began to observe the starry sky.
"what……"
Just as he entered the stargazing state, Wang Xiaoming discovered something wrong. The digestion speed of the magic potion in his body had increased again.
If we compare it to game experience points, then repeatedly stargazing in the same place at the beginning is experience point +1, then stargazing every thirty kilometers is experience point +2, and now it is experience point +3.
“Sure enough, the farther the distance, the better the effect of stargazing and digesting the magic potion.” Wang Xiaoming understood in his heart, “But there should be a distance limit. I must test it later.”
The speed of the potion increased, so Wang Xiaoming simply extended the stargazing trip for an hour. Fortunately, this place is close to the equator, so the dawn comes later.
After returning to the hotel, Wang Xiaoming sensed the digestion of the potion in his body. Just one night of stargazing helped him digest the potion by 1%. Combined with the part of the potion digestion brought by learning astronomy, the total amount of potion digestion he had now reached 6%.
At dawn, Wang Xiaoming was eating the breakfast that Zhou Tong brought from the restaurant.
"Professor, when are we going to leave for headquarters?" Zhou Tong asked after finishing his meal.
"We'll leave after dinner," Wang Xiaoming looked up at Zhou Tongdao, "Go find Shen Liang now and ask him to arrange a plane for us."
"Why use a plane?" Zhou Tong said with a smile, "Why don't I just drive a taxi and take the professor back directly?"
"Well... can you do it yourself?" Wang Xiaoming said casually.
Zhou Tong smiled foolishly and said, "Professor, you are here... otherwise I wouldn't have such an idea."
Although the haunted taxi had been forged and refined by Wang Xiaoming, the nature of its evil spirit remained unchanged. Driving it for a long time would cause the evil spirit to revive, and the people in the car would be attacked by the evil spirit.
Although Zhou Tong can drive the taxi at the lowest cost because he has mastered part of the supernatural power of the supernatural taxi, it is still too difficult for him to drive all the way from a small Southeast Asian country to Dajing City.
It is estimated that the evil spirit in the haunted taxi will be revived halfway through the journey.
"Okay, then you can notify Shen Liang, then find Wang Chaling and ask him to go back to the headquarters with us."
Wang Xiaoming agreed to Zhou Tong's request without much hesitation. If the taxi ghost revived, he could just refine it again. "What about Zhao Kaiming?" Zhou Tong asked in confusion.
In Zhou Tong's opinion, he and Zhao Kaiming have many similarities. Both of them controlled evil spirits with the help of Wang Xiaoming. Therefore, Zhou Tong is naturally closer to Zhao Kaiming and will think of him first when something happens.
"He needs to stay here for a few more days to intimidate those foreign ghost riders." Wang Xiaoming explained.
Although the Ghost Riders' competition has ended, not all the foreign Ghost Riders left at once. In addition, the captain suddenly fled the scene in the third round, which caused a lot of speculation, so these people were stranded here temporarily.
With more ghost riders, management became much more troublesome, and these were all foreign ghost riders, which the White Lotus Sect could not manage at all, so they asked the headquarters for help.
The headquarters would naturally not destroy their subordinates, so they decided to keep Li Leping and Zhao Kaiming here, because these two people showed amazing skills in the competition, which was more deterrent to these foreign ghost riders.
Zhou Tong was very efficient. After a while, he led Wang Chaling to the presidential suite. Just as they were about to leave, Shen Liang came with the two of them to see them off.
One of them was Zhao Kaiming, and the other was a middle-aged man who seemed unfamiliar.
"Hello, Professor. I am He Wenqing from the White Lotus Sect. I once sent you some old items from the Republic of China!" the middle-aged man took the initiative to say, "I made the bold decision to visit you this time because I heard that you are interested in these old items. I specially sent you a compass car made by my aunt."
"The most important thing is that this compass car is a supernatural object and can still be used."
When Wang Xiaoming heard about the compass or another object, he immediately became interested. Last time, he found an ancient painting of a ghost and a supernatural suppressing force used to make coffin nails from the things this person brought.
"You offered to give me something, but do you want to ask me for something?" Wang Xiaoming asked.
He Wenqing shook his head repeatedly and said respectfully: "I just admire Professor Wang. I don't have any requests. This is just a simple gift."
Wang Xiaoming looked at He Wenqing for a long time, until beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and then he said, "Yes, where is the thing?"
"It's just outside the door. It's just been delivered." He Wenqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Xiaoming waved his hand casually, and the door of the suite was opened by an invisible force, which scared the two staff members responsible for moving the compass car.
Wang Xiaoming saw the slightly old compass car at a glance, but it was much better than the one he saw in the museum, at least it was not damaged.
He Wenqing's pupils shrank, and he immediately realized that the rumors were true. Professor Wang was indeed a ghost rider, so he became more respectful and pointed at the compass outside the door and said:
"This is it. It is in perfect condition and contains special spiritual powers. It has the ability to open a passage in the ghost realm and protect the user from being confused by the ghost realm."
A gleam appeared in Wang Xiaoming's eyes. He had already used his identification ability, and relevant information immediately emerged in his mind.
He Wenqing was right. This compass chariot was indeed a fully functional supernatural object. It had the same capabilities as the compass chariots he had seen in history, and they should be of the same lineage.
Looking at the compass car in front of him, Wang Xiaoming was very satisfied. As long as he had this sample, he could imitate it countless times.
"I like this thing of yours very much. Tell me...if you have any requests, I will do my best to satisfy you."
Wang Xiaoming opened his palms as if to capture something, and the compass car outside the door seemed to be restrained by an invisible force, constantly shrinking and flying into Wang Xiaoming's palms.
When He Wenqing saw the changes in front of him, he could not feel the fluctuations of supernatural powers at all. He only felt that Wang Xiaoming's strength was unfathomable. Some of his original little thoughts were instantly buried in his heart.
Then he said seriously: "I don't have any request... I'm telling the truth... I gave it to the professor because I admire him."
"Okay, that's it."
Wang Xiaoming stopped asking questions. Since He Wenqing did not put forward any conditions, he would not be polite. He chatted with Shen Liang and Zhao Kaiming instead. After everything was explained, Wang Xiaoming directly opened the ghost domain and brought Wang Chaling and Zhou Tong to the roof of the hotel.
"Haha, you are lucky. You can take a ghost taxi back home."
After Zhou Tong summoned the supernatural taxi from the storage bag, he smiled at Wang Chaling.
"Are we going to take this thing back to Dajing City?" Wang Chaling was stunned where he was. He could feel that the shabby taxi in front of him was actually a terrifying ghost.
Although he had never seen a ghost taxi, he could imagine how dangerous it was to travel thousands of kilometers in a ghost car.
"Don't worry, with me... Professor here, nothing will go wrong." Zhou Tong glanced at Wang Xiaoming, and after seeing him get in the car, he continued, "Hurry up, do you still need the professor to wait for you?"
Wang Chaling sat in the passenger seat with a skeptical look on his face, looking at the taxi in front of him. He had no doubt that if it weren't for the evil spirit, the taxi would have been scrapped.
"Everyone sit down, I'm going to drive."
Zhou Tong turned the key to start the engine, turned on the lights, and then stepped on the accelerator. Amid the roar of the engine, the haunted taxi drove into the ghostland.
Because it was driving in the ghost realm, the ghost taxi quickly exceeded the speed of sound and headed north at an extremely fast speed.
In the taxi, Wang Xiaoming closed his eyes and rested, Zhou Tong drove seriously, and only Wang Chaling was like a curious baby, looking around in the car.
He admitted that he had underestimated the taxi. It turned out to be a car with ghostly powers. In comparison, the luxury cars and supercars in his garage pale in comparison. No, it should be said that they are not as good as a tire of this taxi.
Wang Chaling gently stroked the interior of the taxi. It was originally hard and a bit uncomfortable to touch, but now it feels very smooth and has a good texture.
"Hey!" Zhou Tong got goose bumps when he saw Wang Chaling's actions. He quickly asked, "What are you doing? Can you not be so disgusting?"
"Your car is great. I'll buy it for whatever price you give me." Wang Chaling said generously, "We can also trade it with contribution points."
"This is not for sale." Zhou Tong thought to himself, he really has his eyes on my car. "This car is specially used to pick up Professor Wang. If you are willing to be the driver, we can take turns working."
Wang Chaling smiled awkwardly and stopped talking. Although he loved cars, he couldn't do something like being a driver for someone, even if it was Wang Xiaoming, because he was the eldest son of the Wang family.
He is extremely wealthy, tall, rich and handsome in the eyes of everyone, extremely powerful, and a top-notch ghost rider.
Wang Xiaoming didn't pay attention to the conversation between the two people in the car. His spirit had now arrived in the wilderness of knowledge in the unknown space.
When I arrived at the place where I usually stored sundries, an old compass car was right in front of me.
The journey back would still take an hour or two, so he could use this time to study the compass car he had just acquired.
When the Eye of Prying Eyes opens, everything in front of you begins to become upside down and disordered, but countless pieces of information begin to reveal themselves.
Wang Xiaoming is experienced. With a teleportation, he brought the compass car to an open place where there was no interference from other things, allowing him to better record the mysterious runes in the compass car.
