"Oh my god, there really is a ghost." Professor Zhou yelled, and excitedly ran over to pull George: "Young man, are you really a ghost? Can I touch you?"
Others couldn't help but gather around George.
George's scalp tingled when he saw this scene. Without thinking much, he flew directly to the ceiling.
Now no one believed that George was a ghost anymore.
"Master, I'd better go home first." George asked Jiang Chunian for help.
"Look at you, you scared the child so much." Tan Lao scolded him, then waved to George with a smile: "Good boy, come to grandpa."
George glanced at Jiang Chunian and shook his head: "No. I am a ghost, I carry Yin energy with me, I can't get close to you."
Tan Lao laughed and said, "What are you afraid of? Didn't your master give us a peace amulet? Don't you still believe in your master's ability?"
Who knew George would say, "Of course I believe in the master. But the master is a human, not a god. She drew these talismans to be used when catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits, not to be wasted for fun."
"George." Jiang Chunian called out.
George turned to look at her: "Master, your talisman was not blown by the wind, it was also drawn by you with great effort."
George felt sorry for her.
Old Tan turned around and looked at Jiang Chunian: "Xiao Jiang, your disciple is really protecting you."
Jiang Chunian said half-truthfully, "After all, I risked half my life to save him, so of course he's on my side."
Jiang Chunian then said to George, "Drawing talismans is indeed hard work for me, so you must redouble your efforts in cultivation and become stronger sooner. Then I can leave all the small things to you and I can relax. Right now, I am not using the amulet for fun, but for scientific research. Since it is for scientific research, wear and tear is inevitable."
George pursed his lips and then flew towards Tan Lao.
Elder Tan looked at George and gave him a loving smile. "Don't worry, son. We are indeed curious about you, but our curiosity is not for fun, but for scientific research. We will not waste your master's hard work."
George looked into Mr. Tan's wise eyes and nodded: "I believe you."
"Come, come closer." Mr. Tan put on his reading glasses and reached out to touch George as he approached. But George retreated: "Mr. Tan, you have a talisman on you that can ward off evil spirits. I can't touch you. What's more, I'm a ghost, so I can't touch you either."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Tan placed the amulet on the table and smiled at George, saying, "Now I don't have any amulets on me. Can you come closer? I heard that ghosts cannot be touched. I'm really curious."
George looked at Jiang Chunian.
Jiang Chunian frowned and said, "Mr. Tan, you are old now and your body is not very healthy. Contact with ghosts will not be good for your body."
"It's okay." Tan Lao laughed and said, "I've just been contaminated by some negative energy. With you around, I'll just get sick, but I won't collapse. But if I see the legendary ghost and they don't let me touch it, I won't be able to sleep."
Seeing that he insisted, Jiang Chu Nian nodded to George.
George then walked up to Mr. Tan, and under everyone's nervous gaze, Mr. Tan reached out and touched George's hand.
The final result was of course as expected. Tan Lao's hand passed through George's hand and did not actually touch George.
George immediately stepped back after being touched by Tan Lao, and the assistant beside Tan Lao quickly gave him a amulet.
Mr. Tan told them, "Don't be so nervous, I'm fine."
He added, "It is just as the legend says. Wherever I reach out and touch, it feels like there is nothing."
He frowned again. "Then what kind of existence are you? Are you a substance we haven't discovered yet, or brain waves, or a special magnetic field?"
Mr. Tan looked at Jiang Chunian and said, "Xiao Jiang, could you lend us little friend George for a few days? I'd like to ask him to come to the lab and cooperate with our experiments to see what kind of existence this ghost is."
"Right, right, right." Professor Zhou and the other researchers all nodded in agreement. "Master Jiang, please agree to lend George to us for a few days."
Jiang Chunian glanced at George and said, "This is George's business. You can ask him. He is just my apprentice, not my slave. I don't care about these things."
Professor Zhou and others quickly looked at George and said, "George, just agree to do experiments with us for a few days and collect some data."
George's scalp tingled.
This group of scientific research lunatics.
He looked at Jiang Chunian for help, but Jiang Chunian shook his head: "This is your own business, you decide for yourself."
Tan Lao said to George, "Don't worry, we just want to collect some data and conduct experiments to figure out what kind of existence you are. This will not only be helpful for scientific research, but also for our project with the underworld."
George thought about it, and finally nodded and agreed: "Three days, I will accompany you to study for three days."
"Okay. Just three days." Mr. Tan agreed without hesitation.
Three days was enough time for them to collect enough data.
Besides, with these three days of friendship, if there is anything I need help with in the future, are you still afraid that this guy won’t be willing to help?
After Mr. Tan and Jiang Chunian reached an agreement, there was no need for George to stay outside any longer, so Jiang Chunian took back the peace locket from him.
Everyone sat down again. Taoist Qinghui looked at Mr. Tan and the research team and said, "Now you believe in the existence of ghosts and gods, right?"
Mr. Tan glanced at the research team and asked, "Do you have any questions?"
Everyone looked at each other, and after a while, Professor Zou spoke again: "Just now, George convinced us that ghosts and gods do exist in this world, so the underworld should also exist. However, the topic of our discussion this time is not just to study the existence of ghosts and gods, but to explore how to help the underworld build a modern ghost city and develop long-term cooperation. Now that we know that ghosts and gods exist, how can we contact the ruler of the underworld, the King of Hell, and how can we help them build a modern ghost city? If all we need is to burn a few paper figurines, or even some high-tech equipment, then we can find someone who specializes in paper making and burn it for the underworld. There is no need to hold a special seminar here, right? Also, we have taken the trouble to help the underworld build a modern ghost city. Besides making the underworld better and the human world more stable, can we also have some normal trade with them? For example, minerals? How should this be achieved?"
Taoist Qinghui smiled and said, "This is why we ask you to participate in this project."
Tan Lao looked at Jiang Chunian and said, "The one who has been to the underworld should be Xiao Jiang, right? Xiao Jiang, can you tell us about the basic situation of the underworld?"
