Cao Manwen didn't expect that this seemingly well-behaved and quiet girl would actually believe his words.
etc.
Cao Manwen's perspective-taking thinking just now came to mind again.
No serious person can believe that Lu Tan has superpowers just by relying on his own words, so isn’t this female classmate not a serious person?
He hesitated, not knowing how to reply.
At this time, the other party sent another message.
I previously joined an occult chat group, where people would exchange information about urban legends and strange events. Most of them were fake, but some were genuine. I met a person before who said he could see
I saw a ghost, and even went to Lu Jian to investigate, and found that there was really something wrong with him!
Seeing this paragraph, Cao Manwen felt complicated.
Unexpectedly, Tao Hongying, who seemed a bit rustic, was actually interested in this kind of thing and even joined some chat groups.
In Cao Manwen's impression, people who like this kind of thing are the kind of decadent young people with disheveled hair, wearing leather jackets, smoking cigarettes, and listening to heavy metal rock.
Huh? Maybe Tao Hongying has become like this.
Cao Manwen replied.
Did your group friend really see a ghost around Lu Tian?
The other party was silent for a moment.
Just when Cao Manwen thought that she might just make a joke and engage in truth or dare to tease him, and was about to stop mentioning this topic, the other party forwarded a conversation.
Cao Manwen read it carefully. This was probably the conversation in the occult chat group. There were some photos, including Lu Jian's Silent Media and the community where he lived.
In this conversation, the person named Yin Yi Xingxing, after saying that he was looking for evidence of Lu Tiao, was still confused for a while and did not know what he was doing. Later, he became more honest and did not talk about Lu Tiao.
related things.
Everyone thought that this person might have been kidnapped or brainwashed after meeting Lu Jian.
Some people say that Lu Jian made those movies to get people used to seeing monsters, so that when real monsters invade, people will not be surprised and conquer the world.
Some people also say that Lu Jian is originally a demon from hell or some other ghost place, and his purpose is to spread those unspeakable horror stories and make people in the whole world suffer spiritual pollution.
Some people say that Lu Jian is here to destroy the world. The more people watch his movies, the more powerful the monsters in them will be. Once you believe it is true, those monsters will come out and hurt you!
Anyway, in the occult chat group, Lu Jian seemed to have turned into a big devil.
Cao Manwen didn't think so.
Looking at Lu Jian's appearance and his attitude towards Professor Hu, the blind old man, Cao Manwen was willing to believe that Lu Jian was the guardian hiding in the shadows to protect the world.
And these nine stories are obviously the stories of those old people who defended their homes and country during the war.
The main reason is that Cao Manwen feels that since Lu Jian has such powerful superpowers, there is no need to use this method to harm other people.
The movies he makes are enough to hurt people.
Actually, it's like this. When I was in the Department of Archeology, my instructor asked me to receive Lu Jian, saying it was to collect materials...
Cao Manwen explained his experience to Tao Hongying.
The two chatted for a long time, and even discussed some supernatural events that Tao Hongying had encountered, as well as Cao Manwen's archaeological excavations.
He found that this girl actually listened to him talk about digging ancient tombs, organizing tomb chambers, and exploring tombs with great interest.
In the past, when Cao Manwen met a girl who went on a blind date with him, when he heard about Cao Manwen's profession and work, he frowned and didn't make any sense.
This suddenly made Cao Manwen a little excited.
Of course, he calmed down quickly, and before looking through the photos of this female classmate, he thought that she might just be interested in some legend about ancient tombs and curses, and he just happened to run into it.
Are you still in Yannan? I also work here now. I think we can come out and meet each other if we have a chance!
Tao Hongying invited.
"Am I being asked on a date?"
While Cao Manwen was a little frightened, he warned himself that she was just using you as a tool and responded with a few words.
The two of them made an appointment to meet near Yannan University on the weekend to chat about Lu Jian and take her to visit the Department of Archeology.
On this day, Cao Manwen tidied himself up a little and sat in a milk tea shop near the school gate to wait for the other party.
By the way, Cao Manwen did look for photos of the other party later, and the impression was similar to his own. He had double braids and glasses, which was ordinary.
While waiting, Cao Manwen opened the reading software and continued reading the novel he had read before.
After reading two chapters, he saw a girl walking towards him.
Her hair was slightly curly and dyed a flaxen color. It was obvious that she was wearing makeup and was dressed fashionably and beautifully. She looked like the kind of beauty that is often seen on the streets of Yannan and has a good reputation for turning heads.
If Cao Manwen hadn't seen the photo before and had a certain impression, he probably wouldn't have recognized it.
This is not just a change of the eighteenth-year-old woman, it is simply a complete transformation.
"Cao Manwen? You haven't changed at all."
Tao Hongying looked at Cao Manwen in surprise.
"Sorry, you've been waiting for a long time."
She sat across from Cao Manwen.
"Not really. You just read two chapters of the novel and you're here."
Cao Manwen showed the other party his mobile phone.
"What novel are you reading?"
Tao Hongying asked curiously.
"Just to kill time, I was asked to create the myth of the Old Ones, so that's okay."
Cao Manwen replied.
"I'm reading it too. The novel is well written, but the author is too slow to update. I wish I could lock him in a dark room and write fifty chapters a day."
Tao Hongying discussed the content of the novel with Cao Manwen again, which made Cao Manwen a little lucky that he had read this book before and there was a common topic.
As they chatted, the two of them turned to the topic of Lu Tan.
"Do you think what happened to Jiuliu is true?"
Tao Hongying asked.
"I don't know, but I've seen the people inside."
Cao Manwen took a sip of milk tea.
"The paper cutter inside seems to have been setting up a stall in Panjiayuan for decades. He has not aged even after decades."
"real?"
Tao Hongying opened her eyes wide and looked at Cao Manwen like a curious baby, asking him to look away.
"Can you take me to see it?"
"That's fine, but don't we want to visit the Archeology Department today?"
Cao Manwen scratched his head.
"The Department of Archeology is right here. We can visit it next time, but maybe the old man packed up his things and ran away after seeing the trailer of Nine-Liu. We'd better go today!"
She was in high spirits.
Cao Manwen felt that it was right. He had not been to Panjiayuan since then, maybe because he thought it would subvert his world view, or maybe he just selectively forgot about it. This time it was just right, so he went to ask carefully.
He drove his old classmates to Panjiayuan, but when he got here, Cao Manwen discovered that this antique market, which was not originally lively, was now full of people on three floors inside and outside!
