"I'm sorry to have kept you guys waiting!"
Di Jing, Dai Wei, and the rest looked over by instinct.
Di Jing, Dai Wei, and the rest subconsciously looked over and saw a skinny young man walking over. The young man's facial features were ordinary, and his clothes were ordinary.
Meanwhile, there was a man who was over 1.8 meters tall following behind him. However, they could not see his face because he was wearing a bamboo hat.
At that moment, Di Jing and Dai Wei were stunned.
'Is he the one we're waiting for?'
Old Shen got out of the car immediately and greeted him while smiling. "May I know if you're Mr. Ye?"
Ye Chen nodded and smiled apologetically. "You must be Old Shen. I'm sorry. I ran into something on the way here, so I was delayed. "
"Don't worry about it."
Old Shen waved and led Ye Chen over in a friendly manner. He pointed at Di Jing and Dai Wei and introduced, "Mr. Ye, let me introduce you. This is the beauty of our team, Di Jing. She's also an expert."
Old Shen even joked as he spoke to this point, "Don't underestimate her just because she's a girl. Di Jing has a double doctorate."
"Hi, I'm Di Jing."
Di Jing nodded calmly.
However, the disappointment inside of her was growing. Before this, she thought Ye Chen was some rich kid who was here to gain experience. However, now that they had met, she felt that Ye Chen did not look like a rich kid at all. He was as ordinary as he could be.
Sigh!
'What exactly are the higher-ups thinking?'
She sighed to herself.
Ye Chen smiled lightly. "Ye Chen!"
"Mr. Ye, this is Dai Wei. He's currently one of the members of our investigation team. He's also the security consultant."
Old Shen proceeded to introduce, "Dai Wei used to be a retired soldier. He has great skills, but he's a little arrogant."
Compared to Di Jing's politeness, Dai Wei was much colder. He merely nodded at Ye Chen as a greeting. Subsequently, he looked at the medicine man standing next to Ye Chen and frowned. "Who's this?"
"He's my bodyguard. You guys can call him Tower," Ye Chen gave a simple introduction. Ye Chen gave it a simple introduction. After fixing the giant, he gave it a new name.
Dai Wei had disdain in his eyes.
He said, "Mr. Ye, we're going on an investigation, not a vacation. Don't you think it's inappropriate for you to do that?"
Di Jing furrowed her brows.
Old Shen changed the topic immediately. "Xiaodai, Xiaodi, since everyone's here, let's depart."
He got into the backseat of the jeep after saying that. Ye Chen led Iron Tower to the backseat as well. Iron Tower was just tall enough to sit down. Fortunately, Ye Chen had shrunk Iron Tower's body earlier.
Dai Wei sat in the driver's seat and drove on the highway after he started the engine. Perhaps it was a little dull in the car, Old Shen took the initiative to ask, "May I know why are you going to Huludao, Mr. Ye?"
"To meet a friend."
Ye Chen smiled. In the end, he did not tell them about Yang Tian offending a chuma immortal. He did not want to scare them.
Hearing those words.
Old Shen was slightly stunned.
Di Jing, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, shook her head.
You're just going to meet a friend. You can't take the high-speed rail or even a plane, but you insist on traveling with us and make us wait for so long.
Dai Wei pricked up his ears as he drove. He laughed coldly and said, "Are you treating our car as a free ride?"
Ye Chen smiled and said nothing.
Sensing that the atmosphere was a little depressing, Old Shen mediated immediately, "It's alright. We've been bored along the way. It's good to have someone to talk to."
Ye Chen said while smiling, "Oh yeah, Old Shen, does anyone in your team know how to speak Shaman?"
As soon as he said that.
Di Jing, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly turned around and looked at him. She seemed a little surprised. "Why do you ask?"
"I was just asking," Ye Chen said.
Di Jing looked at him deeply and said, "Mr. Ye, if there's no need, I advise you not to understand these things."
"Why?" Ye Chen was curious.
Di Jing took a deep breath and said, "Shaman is the language of Shamanism, and Shaman is the pronunciation in the Tungus language. When translated into Chinese, it means shaman."
"I've heard of it too."
Old Shen nodded and took over the topic. "It's said that Shamanism originated from the primitive society. It's a folk belief that came from people's worship of nature and all living things. Rumor has it that they have the ability to control weather, language, dream interpretation, astrology, and even go to heaven and hell."
"That's right."
Di Jing said with a serious expression, "The godly dancing in some areas now comes from Shamanism. This organization is strange. They can perform witchcraft to kill you as soon as they know your name and age."
"And then?" Ye Chen said calmly.
Di Jing said, "Until now, Shamanism still exists in many places. They're mainly in the northeast. That's why I advise you not to offend them when you get there. Otherwise, you'll lose your life."
Ye Chen gave a short response, not really bothered.
Those beings could not threaten him at all.
Di Jing was secretly annoyed to see that he was not surprised at all. She scoffed and subsequently turned her head away.
The reason why she told Ye Chen so much was that her ancestors were from the Shaman Religion. Therefore, she knew how terrifying the Shaman Religion was.
Hmph!
It's up to you whether you believe it or not!
Don't blame me if something happens! '
Dai Wei said without even turning his head, "Di Jing, since this Mr. Ye doesn't believe in superstition, it's useless no matter what we say. It's fine as long as he doesn't drag us into it."
"Mr. Ye, what Di Jing said makes sense. There are many mysterious powers that we don't understand in this world. Just because we don't know about them doesn't mean that they don't exist," Old Shen advised.
Ye Chen secretly found it funny. He glanced at him and said, "It seems like Old Shen knows a little about them?"
Could mysterious powers be more mysterious than cultivation?
"Yes!"
Old Shen sighed softly. "Our magnificent China has been passed down for thousands of years. I wonder if there are many things that science can't explain. For example, Laozi rode a green ox out of Hangu Pass, and purple energy swept across 300 miles. He ascended after leaving half of the Tao Te Ching."
"That's just a legend," Ye Chen said while smiling.
Even as a cultivator, he could not confirm if there was a mythical civilization in China, such as the Three Pure Ones, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother.
"Then, how do you explain the Tao Te Ching and the Book of Changes that King Wen left behind? These two books are just too mysterious. "
Old Shen shook his head and proceeded to say, "Let's not talk about the distant ones. Let's talk about the recent ones. For example, the Yangtze River Incident in 1954? The Chengdu Zombie Incident in 1995? The Yingkou Falling Dragon Incident in 1934 and the rumor of 30 degrees north latitude? "
"30 degrees north latitude?" Ye Chen was stunned.
He had heard about the few incidents that happened earlier.
Especially the Chengdu Zombie Incident, it had spread throughout the entire southwest region and covered a couple of provinces. Ye Chen had just started elementary school back then. After the incident happened, he stayed at home and dared not go to school. He was afraid that the zombies would suck his blood.
However, it was his first time hearing about 30 degrees north latitude.
