People are in the comprehensive tomb, unloading the mountain and stealing the chief

Chapter 215 Illusion?

"Wall? Could it be the ghost tomb?" Hu Bayi immediately grabbed the fat man's shoulder and looked forward from the side.

With the help of the light from the flashlight in Wang Kaixuan's hand, they could see a rock wall standing between the robbery holes not far ahead, completely blocking their way forward.

Wang Kaixuan also felt that there was a possibility, and echoed, "Maybe, let me tell you, this stone wall didn't exist just now, and in the blink of an eye, this thing suddenly appeared in front of me."

It was for this reason that he was taken aback.

"This is really interesting." Hu Bayi looked at the stone wall not far away, and said thoughtfully.

Then, he turned to Chen Ziyan at the back of the line and asked, "Master Chen, what should we do next?"

He has no experience in dealing with such things, so he should ask the experts in the team.

Just like Chen Ziyan deliberately set up the label of 'Feng Shui' for Hu Bayi, he also has his own unique label, which is the field of 'occultism'.

He positions himself in the team as someone who solves supernatural problems.

But he doesn't know what to do now. After all, he is a little far away from the front of the team, and he can't even see what it is. In this case, he can't determine what it is.

If you want him to solve the problem, you have to let him pass first.

"Wait a minute, I'll go right away." So, Chen Ziyan replied.

While exchanging positions, Chen Ziyan muttered in his heart that something seemed wrong with this development.

He remembered very clearly that there were several robbery holes here in the original plot, and he shouldn't have missed seeing them.

Hearing Chen Ziyan's response, the two girls in front of him hurriedly lay sideways on the cave wall, giving Chen Ziyan a way to pass.

Fortunately, this robbery hole was dug wide enough, otherwise it would not be easy for him to get to the front.

When Chen Ziyan came to the front of the team, the first thing he saw was Wang Kaixuan who was blocking most of the thieves even though he was lying sideways.

At this time, this guy was holding the black donkey's hoof in one hand and his broken knife in the other, looking vigilantly at the rocky wall in front of him.

Chen Ziyan glanced over Wang Kaixuan, and also focused on the culprit who blocked the robbery hole.

But after seeing this thing at close range, he said with some doubts: "This thing doesn't look like a wall, it's more like a whole stone."

I saw that the stone wall that completely divided the robbery cave was integrated, smooth and flat, without the slightest gap.

If it is a wall, it should be a wall made of a whole piece of rock.

Hearing Chen Ziyan's words, Wang Kaixuan immediately said: "Master Chen, come up close and take a good look. No matter how you look at it, this thing is a wall, okay? It's the kind of city wall in the early days."

As he was talking, he deliberately took his stomach away, wanting Chen Ziyan to go to the nearest place for observation.

However, Chen Ziyan did not respond to him, but frowned and looked ahead, because he found that the stone wall he was looking at had changed just after Wang Kaixuan finished speaking.

The lower part is still the same as before, like a complete rock, but the lower half turned into a stone wall strangely, which is exactly the kind of ancient city wall that Wang Kaixuan mentioned.

This weird scene just happened in front of Chen Ziyan.

Frowning and looking at the weird stone wall in front of the meeting, Chen Ziyan pulled out a short stick, leaned half of his body past Wang Kaixuan, and poked towards the weird stone wall with the short stick.

He has some guesses about this situation, but he still needs to verify it before he can get an accurate answer.

He didn't feel any resistance, as if there was nothing in front of the short stick, it just sank straight into the stone wall.

Wang Kaixuan was the closest, so he could see the most clearly. Seeing this, he quickly asked, "Master Chen, what's going on?"

Although he didn't touch it rashly, he has been observing carefully, so he is sure that the stone wall in front of him is not fake in any way.

But how could it be like this now, being poked in by a short stick?
Although the others didn't speak, they were obviously waiting for Chen Ziyan's answer.

Chen Ziyan thought for a while, and said slowly: "Do you remember what I said, there is a ghost grave underground here."

The implication is very simple, this should be the Ghost Tomb, otherwise there would not be such a strange change.

This statement is actually a bit far-fetched, but it can be said in the past, so the question before a few people now becomes whether to try to pass through this strange-looking stone wall.

Hu Ba took a look at the stone wall that was still intact when he pulled out the short stick, and said: "It seems that this stone wall... should be called a ghost tomb, something between illusion and reality, why don't we go back first?" Find a living creature to explore the way."

Because someone had already gone in before, and they were doing underground activities these days, so they didn't bring any living things to test the air.

But now I haven't gone very far, and it doesn't take much to go back to find a chicken or duck.

Wang Kaixuan immediately agreed: "I think this method is good. I have fast legs and feet. I went to the mountain to buy two live chickens from a fellow villager, and I can roast them for a tooth-making sacrifice."

Just such a salivating tone made people doubt the fat man's purpose. Perhaps getting two chickens and ducks to sacrifice to the Wu Zang Temple is the real purpose of this guy.

But this is not guessing. Out of vigilance these days, they eat all the fast food that they carry with them. Wang Kaixuan has long wanted to have some meat.

Now that there is an opportunity, it is natural to fight for it.

Anyway, the task of these chickens and ducks is to explore the way, and it will be useless after the exploration.

I have to say that this proposal is very tempting. You only need to wait for a while to avoid putting yourself in danger. There is no reason not to do it.

But the premise is that there is indeed a ghost tomb in front of them.

In fact, what Chen Ziyan didn't say was that he had another guess, but the test needed to be kept secret, so he didn't say it.

Thinking of this, he pretended to be surprised and said: "Look, this stone wall seems to move with the line of sight?"

"What?" Hearing this, the others hurriedly looked towards the stone wall.

Hu Bayi's movement was the fastest, and he had already completed an attempt as soon as others looked over.

It turned out that Chen Ziyan talked a lot, and the stone wall blocking the way in front of him would indeed move with his gaze.

"Why do I feel like this thing is alive, and it's specially here to block our way." Wang Kaixuan took a step back quietly, put the broken knife in front of him, and said in a strange tone.

He just tried a few more times on purpose, but every time he looked, the stone wall would move slightly.

Shirley Yang turned her head and said what she found: "If you turn your head, the stone wall will not change."

In short, when their eyes move, the stone wall seems to follow, but if their bodies move, there is no change.

It's as if being fixed and only changing your sight is the key to the change.

After trying it out, everyone came to the conclusion that something was really wrong with the stone wall.

Extraordinarily strange!
"It's true that there are so many wonders in the world. I've heard of animals turning into spirits, but I didn't expect to see walls turning into spirits today." Wang Kaixuan murmured.

"It stands to reason that it shouldn't be." Hu Bayi frowned tightly and said, "Although I don't know much about the Phantom Tomb, I read some of it in an article. It is said that it belongs to some kind of science that cannot It’s a strange phenomenon to explain, not something like becoming a spirit.”

"The ghost tomb can't be a living thing. Is there such a possibility? This thing in front of us is not a ghost tomb at all!" Hu Bayi expressed his guess, then looked at Chen Ziyan, wanting to see what he had to say.

Chen Ziyan was not in a hurry to answer, but began to popularize science: "Whether it is a ghost tomb, or a similar ghost ship or a ghost building, the essence is not something that exists in reality. To be more precise, it is these things that once existed. Existed, but when it reappeared, its substantial form had disappeared, so it was dubbed the title of ghost."

"The seniors in Xiling once made an inference that the so-called ghosts are likely to be similar in nature to treasures, and they are all products of the creation of heaven and earth."

"Take treasures with more information as an example. The most basic thing to become a treasure is 'spirit'. This so-called spirit is not wisdom but spirituality. It may come from the hard work of the craftsman who created it, or it may be It comes from the day and night companionship of a certain master."

"An object with a 'spirit' will become a treasure after it falls into a certain geomantic treasure land by chance."

"This is why most of the treasures come from ancient tombs. One is that the objects used by the ancient heroes are more likely to produce 'spirits', and the other is that only ancient tombs are more likely to meet the characteristics of geomantic treasures."

"The same is true for things like ghost tombs. Most of them appear in some areas with unique feng shui, so it can be regarded as a treasure without entity."

"The two have the same thing in that they both exert their abilities according to certain rules. In short, they are inanimate objects, not spirit monsters in ghost novels."

In fact, Chen Ziyan had long had the idea of ​​letting Hu Bayi and the others get in touch with the concept of treasures, but he never had the right opportunity. When he encountered this incident, he just said it out of the box.

Hu Bayi knew only a little about what Chen Ziyan said. He had vaguely heard some of them, but they all took them as stories.

But Wang Kaixuan and Shirley Yang just didn't understand it at all. They had never heard of similar concepts, and they had no idea that there were such miraculous things in this world.

On the contrary, Ding Sitian was very calm, but considering the department she was in and the Eyeless Dragon Talisman on her body, this was a reasonable reaction.

After all, it is impossible for a person who knows this to show a surprised attitude.

Hu Bayi didn't delay on this question, he quickly cleared his mind and asked, "So what does Mr. Chen mean, is this stone wall really not a ghost tomb?"

Chen Ziyan didn't show off, and nodded lightly: "That's right, this is not the Ghost Tomb."

In fact, at the very beginning, he had two guesses in his mind, and the attempt just now also verified his thoughts.

If it was the Ghost Tomb, there shouldn't be that weird change.

Just like what he just said, the ghost tomb is still a tomb in essence, it may be a part or the whole tomb, but its form of realization will not change, it just changed from illusion to substance.

Without waiting for Hu Bayi and the others to continue asking questions, Chen Ziyan took the initiative to ask a question: "Don't you think we forgot something?"

"Forgot what?"

Hu Ba subconsciously counted the number of people again, then looked at everyone's backpacks, and said a little puzzled: "It should be useless, right?"

A lot of people are there, and things are carried on their backs, so what else can they forget.

Chen Ziyan took out a pack of masks from his backpack and said, "We forgot to wear masks!"

Because of his foresight, he himself ignored this matter, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen for it so easily.

Wang Kaixuan didn't understand what this meant, and asked suspiciously: "Could it be that the mask has any special function?"

While speaking, he also tightened the black donkey's hoof and the broken knife in his hand. Compared with any mask, he was more willing to trust these two old buddies.

"The mask has no special function, but it can prevent us from some dirty tricks, and at the worst it can block one or two." Chen Ziyan said the answer slowly.

Hu Bayi reacted instantly: "We have been tricked by someone else?"

Chen Ziyan nodded: "That's right, if I'm not wrong, we should still be under some kind of illusion."

That's why he regretted forgetting the mask. Illusion is really powerful, but it's not inevitable.

Fouls like Baoxianghua and Shixiang Konjac exist in the whole world, and they are usually implemented through light or secret medicine as a medium.

And the inside of the robbery cave was dark, and there was no other light source except their flashlights, so he guessed that the illusion here was probably performed with the help of some kind of secret medicine.

If they had worn a mask before, it would have reduced the amount of inhalation, if not completely isolated.

But Chen Ziyan subconsciously ignored one thing, that is, he now has ancient blood, but he can even resist the corpse-flavored konjac, so there is no reason why he can't stop the hallucinogenic secret here.

But he didn't think about it now, and he didn't have time to think about it, because all Chen Ziyan's attention was attracted by what Ding Sitian brought out.

I saw that after they said that they had hit the illusion, Ding Sitian took out a small porcelain bottle with exquisite shape from his pocket.

After the porcelain bottle was opened, a wisp of light blue smoke slowly floated out of it, and spread to cover all of them.

When surrounded by the light blue smoke, everyone felt refreshed, as if the dust accumulated for a long time had been wiped away.

And at the same time that the refreshing feeling appeared, they saw the stone wall in front of them slowly shatter, revealing the dark robbery hole behind.
