Chapter 215: Weights and Death

"Mr. Qin, what do you mean by the possibility of taking action against Professor Wang?" Cao Yanhua asked in the office with a serious expression.

Zhao Jianguo also looked at Old Qin with a puzzled look. Since those ghost riders from the Republic of China wanted to see Professor Wang, they should have good intentions, right?

Old Qin pondered and said, "These old guys all came from the war-torn era. They survived many dangers and reached the pinnacle of ghost control in that era. Therefore, they are very conceited. When they heard me mention Professor Wang many times, they couldn't help but want to measure Professor Wang's strength with their own hands."

"That's what I'm worried about. If they take action, Professor Wang will be in danger."

Zhao Jianguo asked in confusion: "Professor Wang now has the ability to restart. Is this dangerous?"

Qin Lao smiled and said, "The restart ability is indeed very strong, but it is nothing to them. They have many ways to limit the restart."

After listening to Mr. Qin's story, Cao Yanhua shook his head and looked at Wang Xiaoming: "Professor, I don't recommend you to meet these people. They are too dangerous."

"Minister Cao is right. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. If these people want to see the professor, then they can come to the headquarters!" Zhao Jianguo also said.

Wang Xiaoming smiled and nodded, then looked at Mr. Qin and asked, "Mr. Qin, what do you think?"

Qin Lao said calmly: "It's up to you to meet or not. The decision is yours. In fact, if you didn't want to go out, I wouldn't tell you about this."

"Okay then, Mr. Qin, please tell me their location." Wang Xiaoming said.

"Professor!" Cao Yanhua and Zhao Jianguo said anxiously.

Wang Xiaoming waved his hand: "Who said that you have to meet if you ask for the address? I actually have something to do when I go out this time, so I may not have time to meet these people."

Everyone burst into laughter. Indeed, asking for the address did not mean meeting. They were too nervous.

After taking the address from Mr. Qin, Wang Xiaoming chatted with a few people for a few minutes, then said goodbye and left.

After Wang Xiaoming left, Mr. Qin also left, leaving only Cao Yanhua and Zhao Jianguo in the office.

"Do you think Professor Wang will go to meet those two ghost riders from the Republic of China?" Cao Yanhua looked at the vehicles moving away outside the window, feeling a little worried.

"Uh..." Zhao Jianguo stood behind him and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I think he will go. With the professor's personality, as long as he is interested, he will dare to go even through mountains of swords and seas of fire."

"Oh..." A long sigh came from the office.

……

Outside the headquarters, Wang Xiaoming sat in a low-key white-brand sedan.

Looking at the trees outside the window that were constantly retreating, Wang Xiaoming thought of the address he had just received from Old Qin. It was the same as the information he knew.
Zhang Bohua's location is a Chinese medicine shop in Zhongjiang City, and Zhang Dong's location requires him to come to Dazhou City. From the corresponding location, he can travel to the mysterious place and see the ancient house where Zhang Dong lives.

Cao Yanhua and the others were actually worrying in vain. Wang Xiaoming had no plans to meet Zhang Dong and Zhang Bohua right now. On the one hand, it was because these two people were too powerful and made him feel insecure.

On the other hand, Wang Xiaoming guessed that it was no big deal for these two people to see him. It was probably because Old Qin boasted too much in front of these ghost riders of the Republic of China, which made them curious about Wang Xiaoming.

"Luckily, Luo Wensong was not among the people who wanted to see me. If it was him, I would have rejected him on the spot."

In the original novel, Luo Wensong is a very important supporting character. The story begins when Luo Wensong dies and turns into a knocking ghost.

Later, the protagonist Yang Jian used a ghost incense to briefly wake up the other party, but what was speechless was that the first thing Luo Wensong did after waking up was to fight with Yang Jian to test Yang Jian's strength.

Even if Yang Jian turned into a god on earth in the end, the first thing Luo Wensong did after being awakened by the soul summoning was to weigh Yang Jian.

Later, these plots became a meme among book fans. Everyone said that the evil ghost controlled by Luo Wensong was a weight ghost, who would weigh everyone he met.

But joking aside, all these incidents prove that Luo Wensong has a bad temper and likes to fight. If he wants to meet Wang Xiaoming, his purpose must be very simple, which is to measure Wang Xiaoming's strength.

This is why Wang Xiaoming doesn't want to meet Luo Wensong. However, after he is promoted to Sequence Four, he doesn't mind weighing Luo Wensong and meeting Zhang Dong and others.

Under Zhou Tong's driving, the car drove smoothly to Dajing Airport. After the two got off the car, they followed the boarding instructions and boarded the civil airliner like ordinary people.

Because the trip required traveling all over the country, in order to be convenient and low-key, Wang Xiaoming and Zhou Tong both obtained fake identities and booked tickets and took flights like ordinary people.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard this flight to Dahai City. I am the ..."

Not long after Wang Xiaoming sat down, a broadcast suddenly sounded in the cabin, giving a brief introduction to the route, including its destination - Dahai City.

It is also Wang Xiaoming’s first stop after leaving the headquarters.

The main reason he went to Dahai City this time was for Ye Zhen, in order to study the evil spirit in Ye Zhen's body.

If we were to select the most magical and evil ghost in the world of mysterious resurrection, then Ye Zhen's scapegoat would definitely be on the list.

As the name suggests, this evil ghost has the ability to die in the place of others.

According to the original novel, this death-substitution ability can also replace various attacks from evil spirits, just like the stars shifting in martial arts novels, which can transfer all enemy attacks to other places, and there is no restriction on its use.

In the early stage of the novel, Ye Zhen still needed to use some of his favorite figures as consumables. In the later stage on the ghost ship, he directly replaced the attacks of evil spirits with other evil spirits around him, and his main feature was counterattack and invincibility.

"I hope Ye Zhen's scapegoat can bring me some inspiration and make my Starlight clone more perfect."

Wang Xiaoming couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought about the starlight spell he had just developed.

If he could integrate some of the scapegoat's abilities into the Starlight clone, he would almost be immortal in this world.

At that time, things like protective pendants, protective scrolls, etc. can all be thrown away.

This is why he chose Dahai City as his first stop. As long as he can perfect the ability of the Starlight Clone, the safety of his subsequent journey will be guaranteed.

In the first class cabin, Zhou Tong sat aside and asked in a low voice: "Professor, should we contact the supernatural forum in advance?"

Wang Xiaoming shook his head and refused. He came out this time in a disguised identity in order to keep a low profile and avoid trouble. If he notified the supernatural forum in advance, his identity would probably be exposed soon, and he didn't know what kind of trouble would be waiting for him by then.

Seeing that Wang Xiaoming disagreed, Zhou Tong did not insist. He sat aside and closed his eyes to rest.

After a while, accompanied by a violent vibration, the plane slowly took off and headed south.

About two hours later, the plane landed safely at the airport in Dahai City. Nothing happened along the way. No beautiful women came to talk to them, and no evil spirits were revealed. After getting off the plane, Wang Xiaoming and his partner took a taxi and reported the location of the Supernatural Forum Building.

After arriving near the building, Wang Xiaoming did not go directly to find Ye Zhen, but first found a hotel to stay in, and then asked Zhou Tong to contact the Supernatural Forum. When the people from the Supernatural Forum received the call saying that it was Professor Wang from the headquarters looking for them, they immediately reported it to the higher authorities.

A few minutes later, the call was transferred to Ye Zhen's office.

"Professor! It's Ye Zhen!" After confirming that it was Ye Zhen, Zhou Tong handed the phone to Wang Xiaoming.

Wang Xiaoming picked up the phone, and before he could say anything, he heard Ye Zhen yelling:
"Professor Wang, you finally contacted me. When will our experiment begin? I will book a flight to Dajing City now."

Wang Xiaoming scratched his ears and said calmly, "You don't have to go to the headquarters. I'm in Dahai City now."

"Ah...is this true? Where are you, Professor Wang? I'll pick you up." Ye Zhen said in surprise.

"No, I'll find you," Wang Xiaoming refused, "Where is the laboratory of the Supernatural Forum? We'll meet there."

"Yes...we can do the experiment right here, um...wait a moment,"

Wang Xiaoming could clearly hear Ye Zhen asking about the location of his family's laboratory on the other end of the phone, and then he heard A Wu's helpless voice, telling Ye Zhen that there was a laboratory in the building.

"Ahem... Professor, we are in the Forum Building... When will you come?"

Wang Xiaoming looked at the time and it was already noon, so he said, "I will rush to the Supernatural Forum Building at 2:30 pm."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you, Professor." There was obvious excitement in Ye Zhen's voice.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Xiaoming rested in the room for a while, and then went out with Zhou Tong to walk around the bustling streets of Dahai City. Looking at the bustling streets with people coming and going, Wang Xiaoming actually felt a little uncomfortable.

He hasn't seen so many people for a long time, and he hasn't been as leisurely as today for a long time.

It was almost 2:30 in the afternoon. Wang Xiaoming did not return to the hotel, but went directly to the Supernatural Forum Building.

As soon as he entered the first floor of the building, he saw Ah Wu, who was dressed in formal attire, waiting at the door. After seeing Wang Xiaoming, Ah Wu immediately stepped forward and said, "Professor, welcome to the Supernatural Forum. Our boss is waiting for you in the laboratory."

Wang Xiaoming nodded and said, "Lead the way!"

Under the guidance of Awu, the group took the special elevator and arrived at the 26th floor of the building.

"Professor, this way please," Wu said as he led the way. "This used to be the most important laboratory in our Psychic Forum, equipped with many sophisticated instruments. However, since joining the headquarters, this laboratory has gradually ceased to operate."

"No wonder there are so few people in your lab." Zhou Tong looked around and commented.

"Haha, many of the experimenters here have been taken away by the headquarters, and those who are left are some nostalgic people." Awu explained.

During the conversation, everyone finally arrived at the central laboratory, located in the center of this floor.

Hearing the noise, Ye Zhen, who was watching anime in the laboratory, jumped up immediately, threw the tablet aside, and walked over.

"Professor, I've been waiting for you to come here. Ever since I came back from Southeast Asia, I've been waiting for your call." Ye Zhen excitedly held Wang Xiaoming's hand and prepared to pull him into the laboratory.

"Professor, let me first tell you my request. I have a Sunshine Ghost Domain. It has great power and strength, but its range is a bit small... Can you make it bigger... and..."

Seeing that Ye Zhen's demands were getting higher and higher, Wang Xiaoming immediately wisely broke free from his hand and said, "Wait a minute, let's talk about this later. I need to give you a detailed physical examination first to understand all the data."

"Yes! Let's do a physical examination first..." Ye Zhen nodded repeatedly and looked at A Wu and said, "A Wu, where are the instruments in the laboratory? Take them out and see what the professor needs?"

Just as Ah Wu was about to reply, Wang Xiaoming stopped him with a wave of his hand and said, "I have all the equipment. Now I just need a relatively open place."

An empty place?
Ah Wu looked around and said, "Boss, Professor, please wait a moment. I will ask someone to move the things in this laboratory away and make room for you."

"Go quickly...I can't wait any longer!" Ye Zhen urged.

Awu walked aside with a helpless look on his face and started making a phone call.

"Professor, let me tell you my thoughts..." Ye Zhen started talking again.

Wang Xiaoming frowned as he listened. Ye Zhen had too many demands. If he really wanted to follow his requirements, he would have to give up his experimental research.

Fortunately, Awu worked very quickly. Not long after he hung up the phone, a group of security guards came up and moved most of the laboratory equipment away, freeing up a large open space.

Wang Xiaoming stood up and walked to the open space, and took out more than a dozen precision instruments out of thin air. Some of them were forged by Wang Xiaoming himself according to his own needs.

Seeing Wang Xiaoming take out so many things, Ye Zhen took out his own storage bag from his arms and asked with envy: "Professor, why can your bag hold so many things?"

The storage bag is an extraordinary item that Wang Xiaoming refined through studying the ruler-like ghost. Due to his limited strength, the space of each storage bag is less than ten cubic meters.

Ye Zhen was holding this kind of storage bag. If it was used to hold the instruments that Wang Xiaoming had just taken out, it would probably be full after holding about five.

The reason why Wang Xiaoming was able to pack up these dozen instruments was because he placed them in the wilderness of knowledge, but this obviously cannot be said.

So Wang Xiaoming didn't say anything, just pretended he didn't hear Ye Zhen's words, and continued to debug the instrument.

Seeing that Wang Xiaoming ignored him, Ye Zhen wanted to go up and ask him in person, but every time he walked in front of Wang Xiaoming, Wang Xiaoming would always turn around and debug another instrument the next moment.

Ye Zhen was not discouraged and walked around the instruments several times. When Wang Xiaoming finally stopped hiding from him, he couldn't remember what to say for a moment.

Wang Xiaoming naturally did not remind him and interrupted Ye Zhen's thoughts directly: "The instruments are all adjusted. You lie down in the instrument of this sleeping chamber first and detect the supernatural power in your body."

"Well... okay." Ye Zhen scratched his head, gave up thinking, and lay down in the sleeping chamber.

Next, Wang Xiaoming conducted several examinations on Ye Zhen. During this time, A Wu said goodbye to them and left because he had something to do. Only Wang Xiaoming, Ye Zhen and Zhou Tong were left in the laboratory. Zhou Tong did not disturb them and sat in the corner without saying a word.

After the test, Wang Xiaoming stored all the data on a tablet and began to review it.

Ye Zhen wanted to speak, but was stopped by Wang Xiaoming, who said that studying data required a quiet environment.
