Zhang Chao's voice was not loud, but it exploded in Lu Lianxue's ears like thunder.
Lu Lianxue stood up in shock.
"What did you say? A Ghost King from the Senluo Division jumped into the Suolong Well? Zhang Chao, you're not kidding, are you?"
The one who responded to her was not Zhang Chao, but Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei motioned for Lu Lianxue to sit down.
"Class monitor, Zhang Chao says it's true. I just searched the Weidao Division forum, and there is indeed such a post."
Lu Lianxue took Zhang Wei's phone and looked at the forum post.
As Zhang Chao had said before.
It was a post posted by an anonymous user titled: "Shocking! Is there a Senluo Division beneath the Suolong Well?!"
The post was brief, stating that the anonymous user suspected that the 'thing' beneath the Suolong Well was related to the Senluo Division, and it was highly possible that it was a member of the Senluo Division. This led to the inference that the Senluo Division was established much earlier than the archives recorded.
Upon reading this.
Lu Lianxue looked up, her brow furrowed in confusion.
"That's not right. I remember the legend says there's something beneath the Suolong Well. Some say it's a dragon, others say it might be some great terror. This anonymous user claims it's a member of the Senluo Division being imprisoned."
"But just now, Zhang Chao, you said a Ghost King from the Senluo Division jumped into the Suolong Well, and it was seen by personnel from the Weidao Division."
"The Weidao Division was established after the Great Xia Dynasty. If a Ghost King jumped into the Suolong Well, it would have happened in the last few decades."
"The Suolong Well has been around for at least several hundred years. The timelines don't match."
Facing her confusion.
Zhang Chao, who was eating barbecue, looked up with a strange expression.
"Miss Lu, are you and Zhang Wei an item? Zhang Wei reacted the same way as you just did."
At this moment.
Zhang Wei chuckled and said, "When I first learned about this, I was as confused as you are, class monitor. Later, Wunian and Zhang Chao told me that the reason they also agree that the Suolong Well is related to the Senluo Division is not because the Ghost King jumped into the well."
"It's because of what happened after the Ghost King jumped into the well."
Zhang Wei looked at Lu Lianxue as he spoke.
"That Ghost King is a member of the Senluo Division that the Weidao Division has been tracking."
"After discovering the Ghost King had jumped into the well, the Weidao Division sent experts to stake out the Suolong Well around the clock."
"According to the records of the Weidao Division."
"After ten days of surveillance, just when the Weidao Division thought the Ghost King had died in the well, the Ghost King emerged, and it brought out a corpse."
"A corpse???"
Lu Lianxue's eyes widened in surprise.
Before she could ask, Zhang Wei said mysteriously with a smile, "Yes, a corpse. And it's a corpse that you are very familiar with, class monitor. You told me about it before."
"Huh? I told you about a corpse before? When did I tell you? I don't remember."
"The first day I went to the Northeast, you told me."
As Zhang Wei spoke.
Lu Lianxue became even more bewildered.
"No way. I remember the first day you went to the Northeast, I only contacted you once. That was when you asked me about the iron coffin zombie... Wait a minute?!"
As if she had thought of something.
At this moment, Lu Lianxue's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, and she exclaimed in shock.
"The Fengmen Village Zombie!!!"
She clearly remembered that Zhang Wei had contacted her about the iron coffin zombie, and she had specifically told him about the Fengmen Village zombie to let Zhang Wei know how powerful the iron coffin zombie was.
Now that she thought about it.
Zombies were formed from corpses!
And...
The Fengmen Village zombie incident and the Ghost King jumping into the Suolong Well incident both happened in the past. Even if the exact time was unclear, Zhang Wei had said so much that Lu Lianxue, no matter how bewildered, had figured it out.
The corpse that Zhang Wei mentioned the Ghost King brought out was definitely related to that Fengmen Village zombie!!
At this moment.
Lu Lianxue's breathing became rapid.
"Zhang Wei, that corpse, it wouldn't be the Fengmen Village zombie, would it?!"
This time, Zhang Wei didn't play coy. He nodded directly.
"After Zhang Chao and Wunian read the post and the archival records, out of curiosity, they checked the Weidao Division's records regarding the corpse."
"They found that the appearance of the Fengmen Village zombie was close to the time of the Ghost King jumping into the well."
"Then I just told Zhang Chao and Wunian what you told me before, class monitor, that the Senluo Division once attacked the Weidao Division's prison to save the Fengmen Village zombie."
In his words.
Zhang Wei paused, his eyes gleaming.
"They agree with my view that the corpse brought out by the Ghost King from the Suolong Well is very likely the Fengmen Village zombie."
"And if that's the case, then the credibility of that post on the Weidao Division forum is very high."
At this moment as well.
Zhang Chao spoke.
"Back then, Wunian told me about the archival matter. Wunian and I found that the Fengmen Village incident was close to the jumping-into-the-well incident, and we speculated that there might be a connection."
"Because the Fengmen Village zombie destroyed Fengmen Village and killed and injured many ghost exorcists, why did the ghost exorcists only imprison the Fengmen Village zombie? Logically, he hadn't reached the Ghost King level at that time, so they could have just killed him on the spot, given his heinous crimes."
"But if it was brought out from the Suolong Well, then it would be understandable why the Weidao Division imprisoned the Fengmen Village zombie."
"And Zhang Wei also mentioned the Senluo Division attacking the prison to save the Fengmen zombie, which makes it even more credible."
Shocked.
Lu Lianxue was completely stunned, her beautiful eyes wide open.
It wasn't until Zhang Wei suddenly said something that Lu Lianxue snapped back to reality.
Zhang Wei, while eating barbecue, pondered, and then suddenly looked up and said, "I remember there's more than one Suolong Well. If the 'thing' beneath the Suolong Well on Zhang Chao's side is a corpse, then what about the others?"
...
Until morning.
Zhang Wei and the others discussed all night. 138 Reading Network.
Looking at the sky gradually turning white, Zhang Wei stretched.
"Brothers, we've stayed up all night again without realizing it. Congratulations, we're one step closer to dying from overwork."
Zhang Chao and the others laughed heartily.
Lu Lianxue, unusually, made a playful joke, covering her mouth and smiling. "Yes, ever since I met you, Zhang Wei, my health has been declining day by day. You drag me into staying up late every day."
At this time.
Zhang Chao picked up his phone and checked the time.
"Damn it, it's already 7:30. No, we can't chat anymore. Zhang Wei, Wunian and I have to leave. I've promised my client to help him deal with ghosts starting today."
"Then hurry up and go. Call me after you're done with the ghosts. I still owe you a meal," Zhang Wei said.
"Okay."
Zhang Chao replied, pulled Wunian, and said goodbye to Zhang Wei and the others before rushing to the hospital.
Seeing Zhang Chao and Wunian off.
Zhang Wei turned to Lu Lianxue and said, "Class monitor, it's getting late. I'll take you back."
"Okay."
Lu Lianxue didn't refuse. After all, Zhang Wei had said last night that since they were gathering so late, he would be responsible for taking her back, even though it was daytime now.
Hearing this.
Zhang Wei got up to pay the bill and then take Lu Lianxue back.
However, the moment he stood up.
Suddenly!
As if sensing something, Zhang Wei's body trembled violently, and he suddenly looked in a certain direction, his eyes sharply scanning.
"What's wrong? Zhang Wei, what are you looking at?"
Lu Lianxue noticed Zhang Wei's abnormality and looked in his direction. Other than seeing houses, there was nothing else to see.
In response.
Zhang Wei replied leisurely.
"Watching Ultraman."
As he spoke, Zhang Wei's gaze did not leave that direction, which was towards Wenling City.
