After all, in his opinion, coming to the Forbidden City in the middle of the night to repair cultural relics is not normal in itself. However, which big shot engaged in cultural relics and archaeology is an ordinary person?

"Don't worry about us, we can go there by ourselves. Just do your thing first, we will call you if there is anything!"

Cheng Mingcheng waved at Wei Lin and said with a smile.

He knew that the people from the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau came to the Forbidden City for their own business, which could not be known to ordinary people, so he sent Wei Lin away directly.

“Okay, Director Cheng, you must be more familiar with the roads in the Forbidden City than I am. However, you should also be careful. If there is any problem, call us and we will come right over.

You know, in this Forbidden City, even our patrolling security guards don’t dare to go to many places at night. You must be careful. If you are far away from where we patrol, we may not be able to get there in time!"

When saying the last sentence, Wei Lin seemed a little hesitant and was reluctant to let Cheng Mingcheng and the others in.

"Captain Wei, could this forbidden city be haunted at night?"

Hearing Wei Lin's hesitant words, Wang Ye's eyes rolled, he walked forward, put his arm around Wei Lin's shoulder, and asked with a smile.

Wei Lin was startled when Wang Ye suddenly put his arm around his shoulder. He heaved a sigh of relief when he realized what was happening.

"Haha, there are no ghosts in this world. Isn't this nonsense? Manager Cheng, you guys go ahead and do your work. I'm going to go on patrol first!"

Although he was relieved, Weilin's expression was still a little unnatural. He took two steps back, spoke quickly, and was about to run away.

This time, not only Wang Ye noticed the problem, but Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng also noticed that something was wrong with Wei Lin and he was obviously hiding something from them.

"Captain Wei, your amulet has fallen!"

Just when Weilin turned around and was about to run away, Wang Ye's words successfully made Weilin stop. He stood stiffly in place and did not look back immediately. Weilin seemed to be thinking about how to face Wang Ye and the others.

"Manager Cheng, I'm just a small security captain. Why are you making things difficult for me?"

Turning around, Weilin saw at a glance the yellow amulet in Wang Ye's hand. It was his. He had a bitter face and his voice was full of resentment.

"Captain Wei, Director Cheng is not trying to embarrass you. We just want to know what secrets are hidden in the Forbidden City. Since you are on night shift, you must be very familiar with the Forbidden City. If there is anything unusual here, you will know it at the first time. Otherwise, you would not be carrying this amulet with you, am I right?"

Wang Ye spoke, gently shaking the amulet in his hand. He didn't want to threaten Wei Lin, but Wei Lin obviously didn't want to cooperate, so Wang Ye had to be an undignified person. The ancients used the emperor to control the princes, and now Wang Ye was using the amulet to control Wei Lin, which was the same thing!
Wei Lin's eyes were always on his amulet. He was also thinking about what Wang Ye said. After a while, he glanced at Wang Ye indifferently.

"Director Cheng, something is indeed wrong with the Forbidden City recently. Several times, security guards on night patrol heard thunder, but the sky was clear and there was no thunder at all.

What’s even more terrifying is that after the thunder, you will inexplicably see some strange scenes.

There were people wearing ancient official uniforms, walking hurriedly on the road, shouting something like "The Emperor is about to ascend the throne..."

At first, Weilin received a report from his subordinates because a security guard fainted from fright after seeing a sudden scene.

When other people found the unconscious person and brought him back, the man soon woke up, told them everything that had happened to him, and asked to be transferred to another shift and no longer work the night shift.

Wei Lin suppressed the matter immediately. After all, if such a thing got out, it would not be good for him as the security captain.

Besides, this kind of thing has never happened before, and it suddenly happened. Maybe the team member was dazzled! After all, everyone saw that the team member drank a whole bottle of white wine before going on duty, and he was almost drunk when he went on duty. In this case, who can guarantee that he didn't faint because of the alcohol?
Weilin didn't take it seriously. Three days later, he received another report from the team members.

I heard thunder, then saw some strange pictures, and when the thunder stopped, the pictures disappeared.

The team member who witnessed this scene was very brave. He did not faint, but just sat on the ground with weak legs and called his colleagues over using the intercom.

After asking all the people on duty that night, it turned out that only that one team member heard the thunder.

In this case, Weilin could only conclude that the team member had not slept well recently, so he had hallucinations. He gave the team member a few days off, allowed him to go back and have a good rest, and then come back to work.

Although Weilin had made this decision, he was still a little confused, especially when he saw that the team member came back to work with the amulet he had prayed for on his body. He was shocked to the extreme.

Weilin was on duty alone, walking around the Forbidden City, heading deeper into the city.

Then, Weilin himself heard a burst of thunder in a trance.

In the square in front of the main hall, a man in the official uniform of the Qianqing Emperor came hurriedly and walked towards the main hall.

At that moment, Weilin took a breath of cold air.

A bolt of lightning struck down, illuminating the entire square. Weilin could see clearly that there was more than one person, and the person closest to him had a pale face and a stiff body. Even the wind around him was chilly. His hair stood up instantly, and Weilin took two steps back.

The man seemed to have seen Weilin, raised his head, looked directly at him, opened his bloody mouth, and said word by word: "The emperor is about to ascend the throne, you have to come to congratulate him!"

The sound was as thin as a gossamer, going straight into my ears and echoing in my mind.

Weilin kept backing away, as if that would help him avoid the figure.

"Captain, what's wrong with you?"

Just when Weilin saw the man giving him a miserable smile, he was suddenly patted on the shoulder. He was so scared that his whole body trembled. He turned around suddenly and saw the team members looking at him with concern.

He let out a long sigh and was about to explain to his teammates what he had seen, but he was shocked to find that everything in front of him was pitch black, with only the light from his and his teammates' flashlights, and the scene he had just seen seemed like just a dream.

After returning, Weilin developed a high fever.

He realized that there might really be something wrong with the Forbidden City.

But how should I report this matter?

After much thought, Wei Lin ran to the temple, personally asked for a few amulets, and gave one to each team member on the night shift.

Strangely enough, ever since they started carrying the amulet, none of them have seen anything they shouldn’t have seen.

Today, if Cheng Mingcheng hadn't led people into the Forbidden City at night, Wei Lin might not have given more reminders.

After all, Cheng Mingcheng has a special identity as the head of the Archaeological Institute. If something happens in the Forbidden City, they cannot bear the responsibility.

"You mean, there will be inexplicable thunder in the Forbidden City at night, and then you will see some scenes that shouldn't appear, and those people will shout that our emperor is going to ascend the throne?"

After listening to Wei Lin's story, Wang Ye's brain worked rapidly, and he realized that this might be the real lair of Ahui Nuo. After all, he searched the entire Qianyuan Hall and only found the souls of Ahui Nuo and Seres.

It seems that the day chosen by Ah Hui Nuo to ascend the throne is not far away, otherwise people like Wei Lin who are on night shift would not have heard the thunder and seen scenes that they should not have seen.

"Yes, Director Cheng, something is really wrong in the Forbidden City at night. I still have a few amulets. How about I go and get them to you first, so that you can at least have peace of mind."

Wei Lin thought about it again and again, and finally decided to take out his treasure. "We don't need that thing. Those of you on duty tonight can rest in the duty room and don't need to go out on patrol.

No matter what sound you hear, don't come out, remember?"

Wang Ye stared at Wei Lin with a serious face and gave orders in a cold voice.

After receiving this order, Wei Lin subconsciously looked at Cheng Mingcheng.

"Listen to Comrade Wang Ye, don't worry about other things, go back and rest."

Noticing Wei Lin's look of help, Cheng Mingcheng nodded at him and repeated Wang Ye's words.

Weilin: ...

He scratched the back of his head, feeling confused, not understanding what Cheng Mingcheng and the others were here for.

I have told them that there are strange things happening in the Forbidden City, why don’t they react at all?

Could it be that they don't believe what they say at all?

Thinking of this possibility, Weilin wanted to explain it further.

As a result, he saw Wang Ye take out two willow leaves and a transparent glass bottle from his backpack.

After dipping the willow leaves in some transparent liquid in the glass bottle, Wang Ye handed the two willow leaves to Cheng Mingcheng and another person he didn't know respectively.

The two men took the willow leaves and put them on their eyelids obediently.

Weilin felt uneasy, as if they were performing some strange ritual.

He didn't dare say anything more. He shook his head vigorously, trying to forget what he had just seen. Then he turned around decisively and ran towards the duty room.

Even if the king returned the amulet to him, he would not dare to stay here any longer.

While running, Weilin turned on the walkie-talkie and asked the team members to stop patrolling and return to the duty room immediately.

Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng had willow leaves dipped in cow's tears stuck to their eyes. They both stared at Wang Ye, wondering what he would do next.

They have temporarily opened their third eye and should be able to see things that ordinary people cannot see.

Wang Ye extinguished his own Yang Fire, but unexpectedly found that he saw nothing.

The Forbidden City was silent, sleeping in darkness, as quiet as a ghost town.

Wang also felt it was very strange and re-ignited the yang fire. The scene was no different from what he saw when the yin energy was entangled.

"I found some problems when I came in during the day. Let's go there and take a look. You have opened your third eye, so don't be surprised by what you see, and don't make any noise. Just follow me."

Wang Ye knew that Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng must have many questions in their minds, but he did not intend to answer them at this time. He just reminded them seriously.

After saying that, Wang Ye walked towards the locked palace gate that he had discovered during the day.

Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng looked at each other with confusion in their eyes, but they also knew that if there was really a problem here, following Wang Ye would be the safest choice.

After all, Chen Guangquan had seen the ghost of Celis before, so his ability to accept things was relatively strong. He also had the leisure to comfort Cheng Mingcheng and told him not to worry.

"Boom, boom, boom--"

As soon as they approached the palace gate, Wang Ye, Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng all heard the thunder.

A thunderclap sounded in their ears, and the darkness suddenly became brighter. They saw a man dressed in eunuch's clothes, holding a set of clothes in his hands, walking hurriedly past them.

Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng's bodies trembled violently and they supported each other. At this moment they knew that they must not make a sound.

"Let's go and see what they want to do!"...

At this moment, Wang Ye appeared from behind Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng, patted them on the shoulders gently, and spoke softly.

The two of them gasped. If they were not quite familiar with Wang Ye's voice, they would probably scream in the next second.

They quickly covered their mouths, turned around and looked at Wang Ye, and asked, "Should we, should we continue to follow them?" As they spoke, they pointed at the eunuch walking in front.

Cheng Mingcheng's voice was trembling. After all, this was the first time he encountered such a thing. Even though Chen Guangquan had given him a heads-up before, the fear in his heart was not so easy to overcome.

"We have to follow and see. The time is not right yet. Even if we run into Ah Hui Nuo, he won't do anything!" Wang nodded seriously and explained, not feeling that there was anything wrong with what he said.

Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng were almost frightened by Wang Ye's words.

Seeing a ghost eunuch now is not enough, but we have to see Ah Hui Nuo later? That is the ghost of Ah Hui Nuo who has been dead for who knows how many years!
If Wang Ye hadn't said this, Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng would have started cursing long ago.

Now, they could only nod obediently, not daring to have any opinions, and of course, not daring to influence Wang Ye's actions.

"Why is there the ghost of Ahui Nuo here? When Wei Lin mentioned 'our emperor is going to ascend the throne', could it be that he was referring to the ghost of Ahui Nuo?" Cheng Mingcheng couldn't help but asked cautiously.

As they spoke, they followed Wang Ye's steps and followed closely behind the little eunuch.

"Our emperor is about to ascend the throne. If you three are interested, you can come and watch the ceremony!" Before Wang Ye could speak, the little eunuch who was walking in front and whom Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng thought could not see them suddenly stopped, turned around, and spoke to them seriously.

The young eunuch's face was as white as if it was covered with flour, and his lips were red. His expression was terribly distorted and his eyeballs were about to fall out of their sockets. The visual shock made Chen Guangquan and Cheng Mingcheng stagger and take several steps back.

"Comrade Wang, Wang Ye, can they, can they see us?" Chen Guangquan asked with a trembling voice. Although he had similar experiences in Qianyuan Hall before, his back still felt hairy at this moment. He stared at Wang Ye with wide eyes, a look of disbelief on his face.

In fact, the facts are already before their eyes, but they just don't want to believe it.

"Yes, we can see them, so they can naturally see us!" Wang Ye spread his hands casually and said calmly.

Facing Wang Ye who said this with confidence, Cheng Mingcheng and Chen Guangquan suddenly didn't know what to say.

This is too outrageous!
Why couldn’t you tell them about such an important matter in advance?

Does it have to be so scary? (End of this chapter)
