It turned out that Uncle Yuan asked us to wrap the vampire spider and the wooden door because he wanted me and Xiaobai to give those two things as gifts to the seniors of the institute to please them.

The seniors of the institute have their own strengths, some are formation masters, some like to study talismans, and so on. In the case of the Goddess Wang, her favorite thing is to study the Yin Spirit, and to improve the Divine Fighting Technique.

The vampire spider I brought with me was going to be given to the scientific research weirdos in the institute, and Uncle Yuan didn't know the other party's name, only that everyone called him "professor".

The professor likes to study all kinds of animals the most, and his previous research on corpse control insects has been indispensable. It was he who led people to make protective clothing to defend against corpse control insects and high-pressure flamethrowers to destroy corpse control insects, of course, he still hasn't given up on the research of corpse control insects.

I just need to follow Uncle Yuan's instructions and send the vampire spider to the professor. As long as the professor nods, no one else should have objections, and I will be the one who is "covered" by the institute in the future.

And Xiaobai's door panel is going to be given to an onmyoji with the Taoist name "Demon Spirit Daoist". The Demon Spirit Dao family has a learning origin, and they also learned the ancestral Yin and Yang Technique, and accepted their own inheritance.

Different from our Chen family heritage, the ancestors of the Demon Spirit Dao family have been professional demon hunters for generations. After accepting the ancestral demon hunting technique, the Demon Spirit Daoist has always been only interested in all kinds of monsters and spirits, and also has various knacks for dealing with monsters.

Similarly, if the Demon Spirit Daoist can nod his head, the research institute will become Xiaobai's backer in the future. If something happens, the institute will not sit idly by.

The vampire spider and the talking wooden door, although not very valuable, are relatively rare. With the relationship between Uncle Yuan and my father, plus these two gifts, it should be enough for the seniors of the institute to accept me and Xiaobai.

After having the big backer of the research institute, Xiaobai and I will have a much easier time in the supernatural group in the future, even if it is a mystery, they will not dare to trouble us at will.

A moment later, a thick fog suddenly appeared around us, and in the thick fog we couldn't see each other's fingers.

"Don't panic, close your eyes and walk thirty-six steps forward, then turn eight steps to the left, and walk three steps further to arrive." Uncle Yuan said sharply, he had told him this sentence once before the dense fog appeared.

I didn't dare to be careless, so I quickly closed my research and walked forward according to Uncle Yuan's instructions. But just after walking a few steps, Xiaobai's voice came to his ears.

"Master, the three of us are not the same size, and our steps must not be the same, will I make a mistake?" Xiaobai asked.

Uncle Yuan became angry in an instant: "What are you messing around?" You just do what I say and make sure you don't make a mistake. ”

"But...... Yes! Xiaobai spoke again, and suddenly screamed.

My heart sank, and I subconsciously wanted to walk in the direction of Xiaobai's voice to see what his situation was now.

"Xiaofan, don't act rashly, keep moving forward, I'll deal with Xiaobai!" Uncle Yuan admonished.

I took a deep breath and continued to walk forward thirty-six steps according to Uncle Yuan's previous words. As soon as I turned the corner, I heard Xiaobai's screams again.

Xiaobai's voice was so close to me that it seemed to be only one step away. My heart is a little shaken, now should I go and see Xiaobai?

"Fanzi, come and save me!" Xiaobai shouted, his voice crying.

Uncle Yuan also scolded: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Hurry up and help Xiaobai! ”

I struggled even more, and after hesitating for a long time, I finally gritted my teeth and made a decision in my heart. Uncle Yuan told us more than once that we must not be distracted in the last period, otherwise we may lose the opportunity to enter the research institute.

I suspect that Xiaobai's screams are most likely hallucinations, or someone is deliberately testing me. If something really happened to Xiaobai, it would be impossible to drag me into the water.

In case Xiaobai really makes a mistake, I believe that Uncle Yuan will not sit idly by. Now I can't be distracted, and if I go the wrong way, it will definitely be more troublesome.

As I was about to move forward, I changed direction. My heart trembled, and now I can be sure that Xiaobai's "accident" is just a test of me.

After I turned the corner, I should have taken another eight steps, and that's exactly what I thought in my heart. But as soon as I took a step, I involuntarily changed the direction, and now the direction should be to walk towards "Xiaobai".

I felt an invisible force that wanted to push me out on the right track. I took a few deep breaths and reoriented myself from memory.

"Fanzi, what are you doing? Come and save me, I can't do it! Xiaobai's voice appeared again.

I held my breath, completely ignored the cry for help, and walked firmly in the right direction. After eight steps, I turned the corner again, and in three more steps I was able to enter the institute.

At this last moment, a hand suddenly grabbed my ankle: "Fanzi, you are so ruthless, do you just throw me away?" Come and save me, or I won't spare you!" ”

I instinctively opened my eyes and glanced at my feet, almost startling myself. No wonder Uncle Yuan asked me to walk forward with my eyes closed, the "Xiaobai" who was dragging my ankle looked really terrible, even more disgusting than the bloody corpse we got rid of before.

This level of illusion could not confuse me, and since I knew that everything was just a test for me, I certainly would not stop there.

Walking forward three steps with his head held high, the dense fog around him suddenly disappeared, and a brightly lit manor appeared in front of him. The area of the manor is not small, and the scenery inside is also good, and the word "paradise" instantly came to my mind.

It is no wonder that the institute was built in such a relatively remote suburb, because there was no place to build such a large estate in the capital.

"Give me what you have in your hand, young man!" A hoarse voice suddenly came from behind me.

I looked back in disbelief and saw an old man in a white coat, gold-rimmed glasses, and messy hair. His dress is similar to that of Einstein.

"You...... Are you a professor? I asked uncertainly.

The other party nodded: "The guy in your hand is very interesting, I believe it will bring me a surprise." Thank you, lad. ”

I was a little at a loss for a moment, and I didn't know what to do. I didn't expect to run into the professor as soon as I entered the confines of the institute, should I give him the vampire spider now?

Although this spider was indeed a gift for the professor, Uncle Yuan had instructed him when he came that the main reason for giving this gift was to make the professor nod and agree that I would be able to enter and leave the institute in the future.

If the spider is handed over directly, who knows what the professor's attitude will be? Some words should still be more appropriate for Uncle Yuan, I said it too directly, for fear that it would anger the professor and make him think that I had other intentions and bad intentions.

But the professor had already spoken, and if he hadn't given him the vampire spider, wouldn't he be equally angry? It doesn't seem appropriate to dismiss his face directly!

"What are you thinking about, young man? Why, unwilling to give me the vampire spider? The professor grimaced, and his tone sounded a little wrong.

I sneered, and quickly responded in a flattering tone: "No, no, no, I didn't mean that, if you like this spider, the junior will definitely offer it with both hands!" ”

Although I was still reluctant in my heart, but seeing that the professor was about to get angry, I could only hand over the spider first, and wait for Uncle Yuan to come.

At the moment when I handed the packaged vampire spider out, Uncle Yuan shouted violently: "Xiaofan, you can't hand it over!" This is not the professor himself! ”

Luckily, I was quicker to retract my hand at the last minute and hold the gift box tightly. This person is not a professor? But his appearance is the same as what Uncle Yuan described before, and he also admitted it himself.

I looked around, but I didn't see Uncle Yuan, where is Uncle Yuan? Haven't he and Xiaobai come out of the fog yet?

"You've disappointed me, young man! Compared to your father, you are far behind in every way. Go back, the institute is not a place for you to come. The old man in the white coat had a gloomy face and said coldly.

Of course I know that I am not as good as my father, who is already a powerful figure at my age, and I am still an unknown nobody.

I've heard similar things many times, and I'm already immune to them, and I won't take them to heart. What worries me is that this weird old man doesn't seem to want me to join the paranormal group.

Things got tricky now, Uncle Yuan only said that I wanted to please the professor, telling me that as long as the professor nodded and agreed, I would be considered a "person from the institute" in the future.

But Uncle Yuan didn't say what to do if someone refused me to enter the institute. If this old man insists on opposing my entry into the institute, won't our plans be ruined completely?

"This ...... I'm sorry, senior, but I'm not sure who you are. If there is any misunderstanding, Uncle Yuan will come to explain to you later. "Now I can only admit it and persuade a few words in a good voice.

The old man in the white coat snorted coldly: "Yuan Majestic? What is he? Boy, you didn't pass the test just now, so you are not eligible to enter the Institute, let alone seek refuge in the Institute. ”

"Test? But I've already passed, or I wouldn't be standing here. "I'm puzzled.

Hearing him insult Uncle Yuan, I was already on fire. If it weren't for Uncle Yuan's repeated advice to me to be cautious in my words and deeds in the research institute and not to cause trouble, I might have turned my face with this old man on the spot.

Now that he said that I had failed the test, of course I was very unconvinced, and tried to suppress the anger in my heart and argue with him.

Uncle Yuan said that if you can't pass through that white mist, you are indeed not qualified to enter the research institute. But this regulation is mainly for outsiders, and even if the two of us can't pass it, it's just a trouble at most.

Of course, if we can successfully pass this test, Xiaobai and I will be more confident, and everyone in the institute will not embarrass us.
