Mysterious city

“Going to college is not just for a diploma, it’s about learning something for yourself.”

Jiang Zhe smiled bitterly. The graduation certificate was of no use to Lin Zihan. At most, it was just a layer of gold. She didn't need to rely on it to find a job.

For her, the most important thing about going to college is to learn knowledge and experience the campus life that she should have at her age.

With the strength of Lin Group, Lin Zihan can be placed in the best school in the imperial capital, and Lin Zihan's academic performance is good.

But this stubborn little girl refused to go abroad for further study or go to the best university in the imperial capital. She chose to stay in Anshi because she felt uncomfortable going to other places.

But having said that, although the university Lin Zihan studied in Anshi was not as famous as those first-class universities in God's capital, it was not much worse.

Looking at the entire Dongguo, it is also at the level of top universities.

"Don't go so far. I know you just want to send me away. You think I'm annoying, right?"

Lin Zihan said aggrievedly. Although she was very restrained, the sadness in her tone was still clear.

"How is that possible, Zihan, I want you to make more friends of the same age."

Jiang Zhe was only halfway through speaking when he felt a strange movement coming from the grass not far away.

Immediately, Jiang Zhe's joints all over his body tightened one by one, and he leaned forward slightly, getting ready for an attack.

At this time, everyone in the village is staying behind closed doors. Who else will be outside?

But then, a man ran out of the grass and shouted in a panic: "Ghost, the water ghost has appeared!"

This man looked unkempt and had a few scars on his face, as if scratched by branches.

The clothes all over his body were covered with dust, and it was obvious that he had fallen several times while running in a panic.

This guy who was scared to death was none other than Zhao Xin.

"Jiang, Consultant Jiang, ghost, I met that water ghost!"

After seeing Jiang Zhe, Zhao Xin immediately hugged him as if he had found a savior.

Before this, Zhao Xin would never have thought that he would be so happy to see Jiang Zhe!

Zhao Xin, who had just been standing guard alone, met the demonized Xiao Shui and was so frightened that he could not move.

Seeing that the monster Xiao Shui was about to kill him, the jade pendant around his neck suddenly gave off a faint light.

As a warm current poured into his body, Zhao Xin suddenly found that his body could move, and his brain, which was starved of oxygen, suddenly became more awake.

But this guy was pretty smart, so he didn't think too much about it at the moment and ran back all the way.

After getting out of danger, the first thing Zhao Xin did was to pick up the jade pendant around his neck and kiss it twice.

His mother went to the Taoist temple in Qitai Mountain to ask for this from an expert. It is said that it can turn bad luck into good luck and ward off evil spirits.

It turned out that Zhao Xin didn't believe in this at all, and the jade pendant didn't look very exquisite in workmanship, which didn't fit his trendy aesthetic.

So Zhao Xin has always resisted wearing this thing around his neck, but his mother always begged him to carry it with him, especially since Zhao Xin was transferred to a dangerous department that often required missions.

Seeing that he couldn't push it away no matter what, Zhao Xin reluctantly hid the jade pendant in the clothes under his neck.

Even if he was beaten to death, he would not have thought that the gadget he scorned would actually save his life at a critical moment!

I believe that from tonight onwards, Zhao Xin may convert to Taoism.

"Jiang Zhe, what happened to you over there?"

"What a water ghost? You said you were working. Are you trying to kill someone with a script?"

Lin Zihan's suspicious voice came from the other end of the phone. She obviously heard the panic coming from Jiang Zhe.

But she didn't think much about it. Instead, she wondered if Jiang Zhe was going out for fun behind her back!

Otherwise, what kind of job would require him to work so late?

"Zihan, I'm sorry. I'll explain to you later."

Jiang Zhe hung up the phone in a hurry, raised his head and looked at Zhao Xin, who had a complicated expression, and said in a deep voice: "What happened? Did you meet a water ghost?"

Zhao Xin's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he nodded with all his strength.

"Yes, you can't be wrong if you see it with your own eyes!"

"That kid is wet and looks like a child, but every part of his body seems to have been soaked!"

"He just stared at me like that and I couldn't move. It was so scary!"

Zhao Xin said incoherently. Now he would no longer doubt whether the monster Jiang Zhe mentioned really existed in the world.

The little ghost appears and disappears, looking very strange, and just one look can make him freeze in place.

In addition, when I met him, this guy was still dripping water all over his body. What could he be if he wasn't a water ghost?

Jiang Zhe didn't have too many doubts. If he could make the tough-talking Zhao Xin give in, then he must have seen a ghost.

"Then how did you escape?"

But there was one thing that Jiang Zhe couldn't understand. Ordinary people would definitely have no resistance when encountering monsters. What's more, Zhao Xin himself said that he couldn't move.

But apart from the small scratches on his body caused by tree branches, this guy had no scars, not even signs of a fight.

"It's this, this jade pendant that saved me!"

Zhao Xin lifted the jade pendant around his neck, waved it in front of Jiang Zhe's eyes, and said excitedly: "Oh my god, it turns out there are really masters in the world, and masters saved me from this disaster!"

"Thank you mom, after returning home this time, I will definitely believe in religion with her!"

Jiang Zhe glanced at the jade pendant in Zhao Xin's hand and was doubtful.

At this moment, the jade pendant was still shining, but it was quietly carried by Zhao Xin. It looked like a ten-yuan street stall, and the workmanship was very rough.

Can this thing save people?

As far as Jiang Zhe knows, only Constantine in the world has special abilities beyond ordinary people.

But Jiang Zhe didn't dare to vouch for whether there was an expert other than Constantine. After all, there were people outside the world, and there was a sky outside the world.

So Jiang Zhe didn't worry too much at the moment, but picked up Zhao Xin's collar and said quickly: "Where did you meet him? Take me there quickly!"

If that monster were allowed to appear openly in the village, it would cause riots and leak secrets, and there was no telling how many casualties it would cause.

It must be resolved as soon as possible!

But who knew that Zhao Xin shook his head crazily like a rattle and said decisively: "No, it's impossible. I managed to escape. I don't want to see that thing again in my life!"

"Anyway, you are an expert. In this way, I will tell you his location and you go. Anyway, if I go to this kind of technical work, it will only cause trouble!"
