"The Ghost Tomb is not something that can be solved by some exorcist burning some talisman paper and chanting a spell.”
Xu Nuo took another bite of the burrito in her hand.
Before Tang Xue could speak, the bespectacled man beside her clicked his tongue.
"Civil science, ah, civil science, and even Ghost Tomb. Did you come up with that name yourself?”
Xu Nuo shook her head and sighed.
"The Ghost Tomb is the remnant energy of the ancient tomb here. When the archeologist went in just now, other small animals must have followed him in.”
"The energy of the Ghost Tomb sensed the existence of a living thing and thought that the sacrifice had begun, so it revived and trapped the team members below.”
"If I'm not wrong, the small animal that entered the cave just now should be a bird.”
After the bespectacled man heard this, his face was filled with a mocking smile." That's ridiculous. Nonsense. How can such a thing exist in this world? And the remaining energy of the ancient tomb…Haha, it might be more accurate to explain it as an alien.”
Tang Xue was stunned.
Tang Xue was the first to arrive at the scene.
She clearly remembered that there were indeed many birds like sparrows and crows in the pit.
It was probably eating the worms dug out from the soil.
Could it be that what this young man said was true?
Tang Xue calmed herself down and immediately asked into the walkie-talkie," Old Lei, let me ask you something. When you went into the burrow, did you see any other animals, especially birds, enter the burrow?”
A few seconds later, a voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"There was indeed a small sparrow that came in. I saw that the sparrow was still alive and kicking after entering the burrow's cave, so I was relieved to enter the burrow's cave. This means that the air inside is definitely fine. Captain, why are you asking this?"
Tang Xue's eyes widened.
Right again?
"So what if I guessed correctly? It won't solve the problem." The bespectacled man snorted." Even if what you said about the Ghost Tomb is true, how are you going to break it?”
Although the bespectacled man's words were not pleasant to hear, Tang Xue had the same question.
Old Lei was still trapped underground.
Excavator or exorcist, it was time to make a choice.
At this moment, Xu Nuo spoke again.
"Oh, a sparrow went in? There's still hope."
Tang Xue couldn't hold it in anymore and walked directly to Xu Nuo.
"How?"
Xu Nuo dusted off the crumbs on her hands." Find this sparrow and sprinkle its blood on the soil of the burrow. That will do."”
Tang Xue was a little surprised.
What kind of method was this?
The bespectacled man next to him was surprised." Captain Tang, you don't really believe this kind of thing, do you? You want to kill innocent sparrows? How foolish and cruel…"
"There's no evidence at all. It's complete nonsense.”
Tang Xue took a deep breath and looked into Xu Nuo's eyes." Why can sparrow blood save Old Lei? I'm sincerely asking for advice."
Xu Nuo nodded.
"In ancient times, sacrifices required three animals and three birds. The so-called three animals reach the sky and three birds reach the earth."
"In ancient times, when tombs were built, they would also use three animals as sacrifices after the construction of the underground palace, namely cattle, sheep, and pigs. At the same time, there were also the Earthbound Three Birds to invite the living beings near the underground tomb so that the soul of the tomb owner could rest in peace.”
"There are many theories about what the three birds are, but generally speaking, as long as it's a bird, it can achieve the effect.”
"The Spirit Tomb here didn't show itself, but the sparrows that entered the burrow's cave were regarded by the Spirit Tomb as one of the three sacrificial birds.”
"After sensing the sacrifice, it appeared.”
"If we want to crack the Spirit Tomb and let that archeologist come out of the stone coffin, the only way is to use this unlucky sparrow to complete the sacrificial ritual and appease the energy of the Spirit Tomb.”
Xu Nuo finished speaking in one breath. Her tone was calm, but her tone was very firm.
It wasn't because Xu Nuo was blindly confident, but because the current situation was too typical.
This was clearly the situation that Hu Payi, Fatty Wang, Big Golden Teeth, and the others had encountered in the Dragon Ridge's Lost Cave, Fish Bone Temple, and the Thief Cave.
It couldn't be said that they were completely unrelated. They were practically identical.
After Xu Nuo finished speaking, the crowd and staff fell into a short silence.
Xu Nuo asked the bespectacled man with a smile on her face.
"This is the basis for using sparrow blood as a sacrifice.”
The bespectacled man opened his mouth, unable to speak for a long time.
The archeologists beside him whispered to each other.
"What he said seems to make sense. There are records of the three birds worshipping the land spirit in the oracle bone inscriptions.”
"The theory of the Ghost Tomb is indeed incredible, but no one can say for sure in this world. I heard…"
"Less talking, more work!"
Soon, the whispers around them stopped.
At this moment, Old Lei's anxious voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"Captain, what should we do?"
Tang Xue looked into Xu Nuo's eyes." I hope you're right."”
After saying that, he picked up the walkie-talkie.
" Captain Tang, think about it carefully. If we really use this unknown person's method and delay the rescue time and cause an accident, who will be responsible?"”
Tang Xue's eyes were firm." I'm the captain. Naturally, I'll be in charge.”
Then, he said into the walkie-talkie," Old Lei, did you hear that? Find the sparrow and sprinkle its blood on the soil of the thief's cave.”
A rustling sound came from the walkie-talkie.
A few seconds later, Old Lei's voice sounded.
"Alright, I believe that brother…Oh my god! Did that sparrow become a spirit? Right in front of me."
Then, there was a series of crashing sounds.
Obviously, Old Lei was catching sparrows.
Soon, the voice on the walkie-talkie calmed down.
After dozens of seconds, Old Lei's excited voice sounded from inside.
"Captain! That brother was right! The stone slab behind me had disappeared, and the stone slab in front of me…was also gone!”
Tang Xue's beautiful eyes were wide open. She looked at Xu Nuo with surprise and a trace of gratitude.
The other archeologists were also very excited.
The bespectacled man, who had been singing the opposite tune, muttered," Impossible, how is that possible?”
Tang Xue reacted very quickly and immediately shouted into the walkie-talkie.
"Old Lei! Retreat immediately! Don't think about taking the risk and continue forward!"
"Did you hear that? Hurry up and retreat!"
A few seconds later, Old Lei's voice came from the walkie-talkie." Alright, Captain, I'll retreat, alright? My ears have been deafened."
Tang Xue sighed.
Then, he focused all his attention on Xu Nuo.
"By the way, let me introduce myself. I'm Tang Xue from the Department of Archeology at Nandu University.”
After saying that, Tang Xue reached out her hand.
Xu Nuo smiled politely and shook his hand.
"Hello, my name is Xu Nuo. You're welcome. This is what I should do.”
Tang Xue bit her lips.
What should be done? Can you be any faker?
Who was this young man?
