"It's nothing. I just got sand in my eyes.”
Ye Qiu calmed his beating heart and explained to Zhang Weiguo.
"Phew…Little brother, after hearing your Feng Shui secret technique, I'm starting to get suspicious.”Zhang Weiguo let out a long breath and said with an uneasy expression.
Not to mention Zhang Weiguo.
Even Ye Qiu himself was not confident.
However, for everyone's safety and stability, Ye Qiu decided to hide this matter.
However, he felt a faint sense of unease in his heart, unsure of the authenticity of this matter.
Now, he felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at him from behind.
"There's no other way. I can only try that move.”
In order to confirm the gold-looting officer's methods, Ye Qiu followed the rules of entering the tomb.
"Yingzi, take out the candle."”
"Yes." Yingzi responded and took out a white candle from her beast skin pocket, handing it to Ye Qiu.
Yingzi also found it strange. Ye Qiu had asked him to prepare many strange things.
Black donkey hooves could dispel evil spells, but he didn't know what candles were for.
In the past, brother Ye Qiu had never revealed to him that he knew such strange knowledge.
However, there must be a reason why Brother Ye Qiu asked her to do it.
She only needed to do as she was told.
He gave Yingzi a comforting look, telling her not to worry.
"I hope so." Ye Qiu took the candle and muttered to himself.
The rooster crows but does not touch gold.
There was also a rule that had to be followed.
When people light candles, ghosts blow out the lights!
When entering the tomb, one must light a candle in the southeast corner.
If the lamp goes out, then there must be evil ghosts. You need to immediately leave and give up touching gold.
But today, Ye Qiu didn't plan on looting gold. The current situation wasn't about looting gold, it was about getting out of here alive.
At the same time, he had to verify if what he saw was real.
If it was true, this matter would be huge.
"Southeast corner."
Ye Qiu confirmed the location. Under everyone's surprised gazes, he arrived at the southeast corner of the side hall. He placed the candle on the ground and lit it with a lighter.
Then, he retreated far away and stared at the burning candle without blinking.
In the dim environment, the golden flames made people feel a sense of peace.
The candle burned quietly.
The archeological team didn't know why Ye Qiu was doing this.
"What is this little guide doing?”
"Xu, don't talk. There must be a reason for doing this.”
"It must be related to the knowledge of the tomb. The guide has seen the incomplete Fengshui secret technique.”
"Hmm…that makes sense."
The crowd discussed animatedly.
Professor Chen was a little puzzled, but after hearing what his students said, he felt that it made sense. Therefore, everyone joined the ranks of those who looked at the candles.
Time passed by.
The flame of the candle was still strong, and there seemed to be no abnormality.
However, the hall was terrifyingly quiet.
A large group of people were staring at a candle, the light of which illuminated their faces.
No matter how one looked at it, the atmosphere was a little strange.
"Hmm?"
After looking at it for a while, Ye Qiu felt that perhaps he was being overly suspicious. Perhaps this was just a method used by a gold-looting officer to detect the oxygen in the tomb. After all, entering the tomb often required going deep into an environment with scarce oxygen. An inexperienced grave robber would die from lack of oxygen if they were not careful. It was understandable that this rule was followed.
Just as he decided to extinguish the candle.
A gust of cold wind blew over.
Ye Qiu felt a chill in his soul at this moment.
"The wind is blowing!"
"There's wind, which means there's an exit.”
"Yes, we are saved. There must be an exit here.”
"The heavens will always have a way out.”
"There's hope, there's hope."
The archeological team members had the first impression. They shrunk their necks and tightened their clothes, their faces filled with joy.
However, none of them saw Big Ye Qiu's shocked expression and heard the commotion.
"Shut up!"
Ye Qiu shouted angrily and immediately reprimanded all the archeologists.
Last time, Ye Qiu was so angry.
It was when the archeological team was facing death.
Everyone immediately shut their mouths, not even daring to breathe loudly.
Afraid of angering Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu stared at the candlelight on the lake, his heart racing.
In the next second, the cold wind whistled. For a moment, the candlelight swayed as if it would be blown out at any moment.
What was going on? Where did the wind come from?
That's right, this mountain must be a sealed space. There were no ventilation holes.
Also, what did Boss mean by lighting a candle?
It was probably because the sky was too dark, so he lit a candle to give him a sense of security.
This is weird. Look, the wind is blowing towards the candle. It's almost going out.
Why did the color of the candle change? It was yellow just now, but now it's blue.
F * ck! What a ghost!
I have a bad feeling. Bullet screen protection, bullet screen protection!
Amitabha, the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, Hallelujah…
【……】
The netizens weren't scared at first, but when the cold wind blew and the color of the candle flame changed, they were all scared stiff.
The main reason was that in such an environment, anything that did not conform to common sense would cause people to associate it with something.
Phew...
The cold wind blew.
Another sweep.
The flame on the candle changed color rapidly, instantly turning from light blue to dark blue.
There was only a tiny bit of flame left, and it was about to be extinguished at any moment.
Pa!
The last gust of cold wind blew past, and the blue flame was extinguished.
The moment the lights went out, it was as if the hope in everyone's hearts was extinguished as well.
What was even more bizarre was that at the same time, when the candle was blown out, the strange cold wind also disappeared without a trace, as if there had never been a wind.
At this moment, everyone looked at Ye Qiu.
The candle was lit by Ye Qiu, and only Ye Qiu knew the reason.
Even though they had a bad premonition.
But they all wanted to know the truth!
Gulp!
Ye Qiu's expression was very ugly.
He subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
His Adam's apple trembled.
At this moment, no one was more shocked than him. The fact that a man lit a candle and a ghost blew out the lamp was placed in front of him.
He had no choice but to believe it. This meant that this place was a place of great danger. Perhaps there really was a ghost blowing out the lamp.
Otherwise, how could he explain the candle in front of him?
He stroked the golden talisman on his chest. This talisman gave him a sense of security.
The Golden Talisman restrained evil spirits, so there shouldn't be any ghosts coming to mess with him.
However, when he saw so many people present, he lost confidence again.
The strangest thing was that the ordinary Ghost Blows Out the Light was extinguished.
The color of the candle kept changing. It was too terrifying.
When the candle flame turned blue, it was a sign of great danger.
"Comrade Ye Qiu, the candle went out. Is there a problem?”This time, Zhang Weiguo no longer believed Ye Qiu. It was obvious that Ye Qiu knew some secret that no one knew, but he had been hiding it from him.
This evil wind was too strange. Even the color of the candle flame changed. It could not be hidden anymore.
Ye Qiu glanced at Zhang Weiguo and squeezed out a trace of calmness."It's just a candle. There must be a crack in the mountain. If the mountain wind came in, it means that there might be an exit nearby.”
I don't believe you.
Your face is a little pale.
But Zhang Weiguo knew that something was up.
Ye Qiu said this because he was afraid of causing panic.
He could only resist the urge to expose Ye Qiu for the sake of the bigger picture.
He sighed in his heart.
He said to everyone," It's alright, it's alright. It's just a candle flame that was blown out. Don't panic, everyone. You're scaring yourself."”After saying that, he looked at everyone and gestured for them not to move around.
"Hmm?"
However, when Zhang Weiguo swept his gaze across the crowd, his expression suddenly changed drastically.
There seemed to be one person missing from the team.
And his own warrior!
There were fifteen people in the archeological team, and one of them was missing. Their team had twelve people, Ying Zi and Ye Qiu. In other words, there were a total of twenty-eight people.
But now, he realized that one person was missing.
Because he was afraid that the others would get lost, he kept it in mind.
Therefore, it was impossible for him to remember wrongly.
So he could tell at a glance.
"Lynx, where are the hunting dogs?"
Zhang Weiguo suddenly asked a member, his expression somewhat panicked.
Hound was a soldier who had been injured by a Ghost Eye Spider in the mountains. Fortunately, his body was strong and he had participated in the battle later.
The Lynx Warrior looked around and his expression changed. He was in disbelief. A living person had really disappeared from his side.
"Class monitor, he…was still here just now.”
