"Class monitor, it seems you have more than just school admirers; the ghost-exorcism circles are quite populated too."
Zhang Wei felt the hostile gazes but paid them no mind, teasing Lu Lianxue.
Lu Lianxue rolled her eyes at Zhang Wei.
"Don't mind them. Let me introduce you to these people. Some of them are quite formidable."
Everyone present was a reinforcement for the Northeast Defense Division.
They might have to cooperate for a while.
To that end.
As they walked towards the others, Lu Lianxue introduced the formidable individuals to Zhang Wei.
By the end of the introductions.
Lu Lianxue looked at a young man, a fond yet pained smile appearing on her face.
He was a spirited young man, currently conversing with the formidable figures Lu Lianxue had introduced.
And those people.
Were very polite to the young man.
It was obvious to anyone that the young man had a significant background.
"What's up, Class Monitor? Do you know that person?"
"Know him? More than that, he's my brother." Lu Lianxue rubbed her forehead, looking speechless. "I didn't expect this kid to show up too."
"Oh ho, Class Monitor, you're actually a sister who dotes on her brother."
Zhang Wei raised an eyebrow in surprise and teased.
Unusually.
Lu Lianxue didn't roll her eyes at Zhang Wei. Instead, she nodded and said:
"Indeed, I'm quite the doting sister. I've cleaned up a lot of his messes in the past."
Before she finished speaking.
Without waiting for Zhang Wei to speak.
Lu Lianxue suddenly looked at Zhang Wei:
"Zhang Wei, could you do me a favor? I know you're very strong. If you have time, could you discipline my brother for me, so he knows not to think the sky is the limit just because of his status."
"I won't have you help for free. Tell me if you want money or anything else, as long as I can provide it."
Zhang Wei understood Lu Lianxue's intention.
"Class Monitor, you're worried your brother might be in danger during this trip to the Northeast due to his arrogance, aren't you?"
Lu Lianxue nodded and sighed:
"Yes. You don't know, he's already spoiled by my grandfather and master, so he's incredibly arrogant."
"Especially recently, my grandmother gave my brother a Xishuangbanna Bronze-armored Corpse for protection."
"He's become even more insufferably arrogant."
As she spoke.
She pointed to the person beside her brother, Lu Lianfeng.
The person was wearing a black suit, a KN95 mask, and black sunglasses, making his face unreadable. However, through the visible side of his face, one could see his skin was frighteningly pale, as if he had applied thick foundation.
Glancing at his eyes beneath the sunglasses, they were hollow and lifeless, filled with a deathly stillness.
"Then it's the Xishuangbanna Bronze-armored Corpse."
Afterward.
Lu Lianxue, fearing Zhang Wei might not know what a Xishuangbanna Bronze-armored Corpse was, provided an explanation.
Lu Lianxue's grandmother was the second-in-command of the Xiangxi Corpse Herding sect.
She had always doted on Lu Lianxue and her brother.
Especially the youngest, Lu Lianfeng, whom she spoiled immensely.
As is well known.
The Xiangxi Corpse Herding sect was famous for herding corpses. Their method of dealing with ghosts was to control refined corpses to fight for them.
Therefore, a Xiangxi Corpse Herder was never alone; there was always a 'person' accompanying them.
The Xishuangbanna Bronze-armored Corpse beside Lu Lianfeng.
Was personally refined by his grandmother for him.
And.
It was refined using one of the Xiangxi Corpse Herding sect's four major corpse refining techniques, the 'Bronze Armor Technique'.
According to Lu Lianxue's explanation.
Her grandmother loved Lu Lianfeng dearly. When refining this corpse, she not only used the four major corpse refining techniques...
But also specifically invited the Miao border expert, Granny Ya, to assist in the refinement with蛊 (gu) insects.
Thus, the 'Xishuangbanna Bronze-armored Corpse' was created.
This Xishuangbanna Bronze-armored Corpse was immune to common anti-zombie talismans, ink lines, and glutinous rice.
Even with the help of the Miao border expert.
This Xishuangbanna Bronze-armored Corpse was unfazed by rooster blood, which bronze-armored corpses typically feared.
With this corpse.
Within a few years.
Lu Lianfeng would undoubtedly be considered a master.
"No wonder you said your brother has become arrogant lately. If it were me, I'd be arrogant too. I'd be so arrogant I'd drink soy milk with two tea eggs for breakfast."
Zhang Wei chuckled.
Lu Lianxue shrugged and sighed:
"The Xishuangbanna Bronze-armored Corpse is indeed very powerful."
"But you know the situation in the Northeast. It's very dangerous. I'm really afraid something might happen to him."
Zhang Wei nodded in agreement.
After all, Wu Nian had gone missing, and many other ghost exorcists were also missing or unaccounted for.
Thinking of this.
Zhang Wei patted Lu Lianxue on the shoulder:
"Class Monitor, I can discipline your brother for you, but I can't think of what I want for it right now."
"It's fine. You help me discipline my brother, and then tell me what you want, as long as I can provide it."
"Deal." Zhang Wei grinned.
Just as Lu Lianxue was about to say more.
"Sis!"
A clear shout.
Lu Lianfeng, who had been conversing with everyone, caught sight of Captain Lin and the others approaching out of the corner of his eye, and also spotted Lu Lianxue.
Instantly.
He ran towards Lu Lianxue with the Xishuangbanna Bronze-armored Corpse.
...
On the plane.
As everyone took their seats.
Lu Lianfeng, just as Lu Lianxue had said, was very arrogant.
From the moment they met until now.
He had been boasting to Lu Lianxue about his recent glorious achievements.
Zhang Wei, sitting beside Lu Lianxue, had also become an audience for his bragging.
Zhang Wei was also a chatterbox.
The two of them babbled all the way.
It wasn't until they sat down that Lu Lianfeng finally realized.
Looking at Zhang Wei sitting next to Lu Lianxue.
He couldn't help but be startled.
"Sis, who is this?"
He had been too busy boasting to even ask for this person's name.
...
