3448 Greetings, Big Brother

The stick wasn't long. Its length was from the tip of his fingers to the heel of his hand.

Although it was very foggy, he could still see the item clearly because he was holding it.

But even though he could see it clearly, he couldn't figure out what it was.

Xie Jiling took out a flashlight from her bag. She turned it on to test the flashlight.

"As expected, this light is not strong enough to shine through the fog, " said Xie Jiling.

To make it more convenient to carry it around, she chose to bring a small flashlight.

In normal circumstances, this flashlight was good enough. But in this situation, the flashlight's light was not bright enough.

The light was really dim. Not only would it be useless, but it would also cause people to not have enough time to react if something sudden were to happen.

And so, Xie Jiling put the flashlight away.

She took the tiny stick from Han Zhuofeng's hand and gripped one end of the bag. "Zip the bag for me again."

And Han Zhuofeng did what Xie Jiling told him to do. He zipped the bag up.

Then, he saw Xie Jiling press something on the stick.

The tiny stick suddenly became much longer.

Xie Jiling held the stick and drew a few circles in the air.

From Han Zhuofeng's point of view, a few circles were randomly drawn. There were no patterns.

But when Xie Jiling drew the first circle, a bright spot appeared on the tip of the stick.

Then, as Xie Jiling started drawing more circles, the tip of the stick became brighter and brighter.

When Xie Jiling stopped, a beam of light suddenly shot out from the tip of the tiny stick, illuminating the area around them.

Now, they could see the two strange rocks in the distance

Han Zhuofeng couldn't help but utter in surprise, "Harry Potter's wand?"

Xie Jiling was speechless.

"This stick is made with rolls of brightness talisman. I used a few high-level brightness talismans and rolled them into this tiny stick. This way, the brightness can be maintained for five hours, " said Xie Jiling.

"It's too troublesome to use the talisman one by one. I just rolled them all into one. This way, it's easier to carry them around, and it's easier to store them as well." Xie Jiling said.

Han Zhuofeng couldn't see clearly earlier.

But now that it was right, Han Zhuofeng could finally clearly see.

She had really rolled many yellow talisman papers into a stick.

Just like how kids had always loved rolling papers into a stick for fun.

He didn't expect Xie Jiling to roll the talisman papers.

Han Zhuofeng couldn't help but ask, "When you were young, did you often roll papers into a stick for fun?"

Unexpectedly, Xie Jiling answered, "How did you know? That was how I got this inspiration."

Han Zhuofeng was speechless. "…"

Sigh. Xie Jiling was so cute.

"Eh? Jiling?" A man's voice suddenly sounded.

The voice sounded unsure. The voice conveyed an inquisitive and uncertain mood.

Xie Jiwen did not accept a commission from Ghost Town.

He had heard about Ghost Town and was curious about it. And so, he came here on his own time to check things out.

When Ghost Town closed, he hid inside to see what was actually going on in Ghost Town.

But then, while he was walking, he noticed that the foggy area in front suddenly brightened up.

As the light radiated, Xie Jiwen noticed that a boy and a girl stood in front.

He could only see their backs. He couldn't see their faces, but they looked rather young.

And the more Xie Jiwen looked, the more he thought that the girl in front appeared familiar.

She looked like the little Jiling from his family.

Her height and body figure matched that of Xie Jiling.

If it were just Xie Jiwen alone, Xie Jiwen wouldn't have had any questions. He would just call her immediately.

But there was a man beside Xie Jiling now.

In addition, that man was holding Xie Jiling's hand!

This was why Xie Jiwen felt unsure.

This might just be someone who looked like Xie Jiling.

He didn't think that Xie Jiling could be this intimate with a man.

But aside from Xie Jiling, Xie Jiwen couldn't think of anyone who was capable of creating such a bright light.

The light of a flashlight wouldn't shine through the fog. He had tried it.

So, he used a brightness talisman as well.

The source of that brightness was clearly the same type as what he was using.

The person in front was also an exorcist.

A young girl who was also an exorcist…

Xie Jiwen was not sure, but he decided to try it out and call Xie Jiling's name out.

When Han Zhuofeng heard the voice, he immediately noticed something wrong.

Who was that person?

Why was he calling Xie Jiling like he is very familiar with her?

Han Zhuofeng and Xie Jiling both looked back at the same time.

Han Zhuofeng saw a tall and skinny man.

The man was handsome

He looked a little badass as well.

Men like him were usually really popular among girls.

Han Zhuofeng narrowed his eyes and immediately tilted his head and looked over at Xie Jiling.

He saw Xie Jiling with a smile. She seemed rather happy and bright.

Han Zhuofeng's heart sank.

But then, he heard Xie Jiling call out, "Big Brother!"

Big brother?

Han Zhuofeng immediately looked at the person walking toward them.

Xie Jiwen walked over and said happily, "It's really you. I was looking at your back earlier, but I didn't dare to acknowledge you even though I thought it was you."

As he said, he recalled the reason why he didn't dare to acknowledge Xie Jiling.

Xie Jiwen stared at the intertwined fingers of Xie Jiling and Han Zhuofeng.

"You…" Xie Jiwen raised his brow and asked.

"I am Jiling's friend, Han Zhuofeng.

"We were filming here, and I asked Jiling to check this place out to see if there's anything weird going on with this place. And unexpectedly, there's actually something weird. Jiling wanted to investigate this place, and I was worried about her, so I stayed with her." Han Zhuofeng explained everything in a very concise manner.

"So, you're keeping her company," Xie Jiwen smiled and said, "Are you an exorcist as well?"

"…" When Han Zhuofeng saw Xie Jiwen's expression, he felt as though Xie Jiwen had something against him.

"No." Han Zhuofeng said.

"Since you are not an exorcist, what is the use of you staying here?" Xie Jiwen asked.

"Jiling said that as well." Han Zhuofeng wouldn't possibly get stumped by a few sentences from Xie Jiwen.

Han Zhuofeng smiled in a very calm manner and said, "Although I can't help with anything else, I can chat with Jiling and keep her entertained before the vengeful spirit appears. That's better than letting her walk around by herself, right?"

With this, Han Zhuofeng looked at Xie Jiwen with a mocking expression.

Look at you. Weren't you strolling here by yourself?

That was so sad and lonely!

You didn't even have someone to talk to.

Xie Jiwen was speechless.

Xie Jiwen ignored Han Zhuofeng and turned around to ask Xie Jiling, "What's your relationship with this guy?"

Xie Jiling thought that Xie Jiwen had yet to introduce himself.

Han Zhuofeng had already introduced himself, and he was really respectful as well.

To prevent Xie Jiwen from being seen as a rude person, Xie Jiling turned and said to Han Zhuofeng, "This is my elder cousin, Xie Jiwen."

Han Zhuofeng already knew they were relatives when he heard Xie Jiling call Xie Jiwen 'Big Brother.'

After hearing Xie Jiling's introduction of him, he felt relieved.

"Greetings, Big Brother." Han Zhuofeng said with a grin.
