“Teacher, could that skinless monster be the thing that killed those archaeology predecessors?”
Zhang Bo Yu asked with some fear.
He had also seen the monster that appeared at the entrance of the cave.
It was a living, breathing skinless monster!
It looked quite terrifying!
Anyone with a little less courage would have nightmares from seeing it!
Professor Sun said in a heavy tone: "It shouldn't be too far off. I didn't expect this place to be so dangerous. They haven't even entered the tomb and they encountered this kind of monster. I don't know how many more dangers there are inside the ancient tomb."
Captain Xing sighed: "Such a dangerous place, if they really go down, I'm afraid they will be in great danger."
Professor Sun remained silent.
But he also knew that he wouldn't be able to dissuade Wu San Sheng and the others.
They had come here with their minds set on going down.
"Pan Zi, what exactly did you see inside?"
Wu San Sheng looked at Pan Zi, his brow furrowed.
Pan Zi finally regained his senses, but his eyes were still full of terror: "Third Master, there is indeed a tomb passage inside, and it's already been opened. But when I wanted to enter the tomb passage, I encountered that monster! It was terrifying!"
Wu San Sheng said: "So, the cave opening just now is indeed the entrance?"
Pan Zi nodded: "It should be."
"This..."
Wu San Sheng was a little troubled. He said, "Judging from the appearance of the monster just now, it's probably a blood corpse. It would probably be impossible to go through there."
"What? Blood corpse?"
Pan Zi exclaimed, "Third Master! You said that monster just now was a blood corpse? I... I actually escaped from the hands of a blood corpse?"
Dili Re Ba asked curiously, "What is a blood corpse?"
Wu Tian Zhen's eyes were also a little fearful. He said, "A blood corpse is a blood zombie. I don't know how to explain it, but it's basically a kind of undead monster in ancient tombs. It's very terrifying. Even explosives can't kill it!"
After listening to Wu Tian Zhen's explanation, Dili Re Ba's eyes widened, her small mouth could almost fit an apple!
And Wu San Sheng looked towards Zhang Lin: "Little Brother, was that thing a blood corpse? If it was a blood corpse, we probably wouldn't have escaped so easily, right?"
Zhang Lin shook his head: "No, it's a monster that becomes one after being infected with the corpse poison."
After hearing Zhang Lin's words, Wu San Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately it's not a blood corpse. If there really were blood corpses in this Warring States tomb, I'm afraid our lives wouldn't be enough to pay for it!"
After listening to Wu San Sheng's words, Dili Re Ba became even more concerned about blood corpses.
What kind of monster was that terrifying?
Wu San Sheng continued, "If that monster isn't a blood corpse, then why don't we dig open the entrance and go in from there?"
But Zhang Lin shook his head: "There are eight entrances here, only one is real. The archaeology team back then probably entered the wrong one, which is why they all didn't come out."
After hearing Zhang Lin's words, everyone gasped in surprise.
Wu San Sheng exclaimed: "Little Brother, you mean this Warring States tomb uses the principle of the Eight Trigrams Formation? We can only enter after finding the life gate?"
Zhang Lin nodded, then found a few dozen small stones nearby and began to arrange them on the ground.
Everyone looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
"What is Little Brother doing?"
Dili Re Ba was full of confusion.
Wu Tian Zhen looked at the stones being arranged into various guà yáo by Zhang Lin, and couldn't help but say: "It seems like some kind of guà xiàng."
"guà xiàng?"
Dili Re Ba didn't understand. "Is he fortune-telling?"
Wu Tian Zhen explained: "guà xiàng aren't just used for fortune-telling. I'm not sure about the specifics. It's too profound."
Wu San Sheng and the others also watched this scene, without saying a word, letting Zhang Lin quietly solve it.
The fans in the live stream, however, were all expressing that they didn't understand.
"What is Little Brother doing? What's the use of arranging those stones?"
"He wouldn't be playing house, would he?"
"Wu Tian Zhen said it was something called guà xiàng, what does it mean?"
"I don't understand. Can we really find that life gate by using these stones?"
"I don't understand either. What's the use of arranging some stones, oh?"
"It feels a little bit like making a fuss over nothing."
The fans watched as Zhang Lin arranged the stones on the ground, all dumbfounded.
How could they know what guà xiàng or bā guà fēng shuǐ were?
Some even felt it was a bit of a fuss.
Captain Xing asked with confusion, "Professor Sun, you are an expert in this field, can you tell what Zhang Lin is doing?"
Professor Sun stared at the live stream screen with a solemn expression: "This seems like the Bā Guà? But I've also studied Bā Guà, but I've never seen this kind of guà xiàng. These guà yáo are very strange. It looks like they're reversed. It's completely different from the Bā Guà I've encountered. Could it be..."
"Could it be what?"
Captain Xing couldn't help but ask.
"Could it be the legendary Xiān Tiān Bā Guà?"
Professor Sun looked shocked, his breathing became a little quick.
Obviously this matter was beyond his understanding. Even after seeing these guà xiàng, he couldn't calm down!
Captain Xing was still puzzled. He asked curiously, "Are there so many varieties of Bā Guà? Is there something called Xiān Tiān and Hòu Tiān?"
