Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.

Chapter 31 The reputation of the tomb raiders cannot be lost.

"Is this really a case of being trapped in a maze?"

"What about that person?"

Chen Yibai stared wide-eyed at the cotton ball on the ground and Yang Qingyun's half-purple knitted sweater, and blurted out "Fuck your mother".

Chen Yibai, a master tomb raider who was well-versed in Yin-Yang and the Eight Trigrams, had broken through countless traps and witnessed many 'ghost wall' tomb passages.

But at this moment, he was under unprecedented mental pressure, feeling that he could collapse at any moment.

calm down!

The more complex the situation, the more we need to stay calm!

Chen Yibai took a deep breath, pulled out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep drag. Under the stimulation of nicotine, he tried his best to calm himself down before going through everything again.

After finishing his cigarette, Chen Yibai tied the cigarette butt to the end of a cotton thread, then picked up the ball of thread and slowly pulled it back.

After pulling for a few minutes, the cotton thread with the cigarette butt tied to it was pulled back from the front.

Therefore, it can be almost 100% confirmed that we have indeed encountered a ghost wall!

My initial judgment was indeed wrong; going right all the time was just going in circles.

However, the passageway, which is only a hundred meters or so long, looks like a straight line. More importantly, we had already made precautions in advance. So why did we end up going in circles after entering?

Chen Yibai couldn't understand it at all, and at the same time, he clearly realized that the passageway of the Kang King's tomb was really too powerful and too terrifying.

This design is so good, it would be a real shame not to open an escape room!

Besides this ghost wall phenomenon, what's even more bizarre and terrifying is the inexplicable disappearance of teammates.

Even if you encounter a maze, your teammates can't just disappear for no reason, right?

Furthermore, the passageways are interconnected, and sound can travel quite far, so even if contact is lost, the sound should still be audible.

unless……

Unless the person is already 'gone'.

Chen Yibai looked again at the stuck magnetic needle on the Bagua compass, and a very ominous premonition filled his heart.

A stuck magnetic needle is an ominous sign!

There might be some hidden danger in this passageway; Yan Wanlei and his group might be 'instantly killed'.

If that's really the case, then this 'leading the group' was a complete failure.

It really carried the top-ranked fan to new heights.

However, upon closer examination, this guess also has some unreasonable aspects.

What kind of danger could instantly kill six or seven people, leaving them no chance to even scream?

Also, Wang Haichuan and his group were still holding that set of bronze armor. If they were really 'instantly killed,' how come that set of bronze armor also disappeared?

Based on the above assessment, Chen Yibai felt that it was more likely that there was some kind of special mysterious mechanism in this passageway.

The wisdom and ingenuity of the ancients are beyond the imagination of modern people. They came up with all sorts of ingenious and clever tricks when it came to designing anti-theft measures for ancient tombs, so nothing outlandish in ancient tombs is considered far-fetched.

For the sake of the gifts from the top-ranked customer for a month, and to uphold his reputation as the 'last tomb raider,' Chen Yibai's gaze was resolute. Even if it meant risking his life, he was determined to break through this labyrinthine passage!

The reputation of the tomb raiders must not be lost!

detail!

The initial misjudgment was definitely due to overlooking some detail!

Chen Yibai, holding the ball of cotton thread, walked along the passageway again.

This time, Chen Yibai didn't miss any detail he could see on the mountain wall of the passageway.

The walls of the entire passageway are all man-made and have not been specially decorated, so they look extremely rough. Apart from the specially carved niches, there are no murals or symbols.

Walking through the entire passageway yielded no particular reward.

At the end of the passageway, there was that familiar 'Y'-shaped fork in the road. A row of incense sticks was stuck in the niche on the right. The burning orange-red incense sticks looked like a vertical row to the naked eye, but once you went in and followed the markings of the incense sticks, you were actually going around in circles!

"Go left!"

This time, Chen Yibai turned his head to the left, even though the left side represents the 'Surprise Gate' in the Bagua.

The "Surprise Gate" is considered inauspicious.

But now, in order to unravel the mystery of this passageway's maze-like nature, we can only walk through it and see for ourselves.

Chen Yibai carefully entered through the left passageway.

This passageway is almost identical to the one next door. After walking forward for more than ten meters, you can also see niches containing tower-shaped bronze artifacts on both sides of the passageway.

Except for the fact that there are no incense sticks used as markers in the niches, everything else is exactly the same, even the spacing between the niches carved in the passageway is exactly the same.

Chen Yibai took out soybeans, placed them one by one in the niche to mark them again, and then quickly walked through the passageway.

At the end of the passageway was another 'Y'-shaped fork.

Just as Chen Yibai had predicted, there was incense burning in the niche on the right and soybeans in the niche on the left.

Chen Yibai continued to walk to the right, and finally got confirmation.

Whether you choose to enter from the left or the right, you will eventually exit from the same exit.

Then you face a choice between left and right, and so on in an endless cycle.

Until the invaders are trapped and killed here.

To reiterate, it's truly unbelievable and terrifying that two passageways, each a hundred meters or so long, could create such a vicious cycle.

But Chen Yibai was 100% certain that these two passageways were definitely not just a simple vicious cycle.

Because if it's just a simple vicious cycle, then where did Yan Wanlei and the others disappear to?

Could it be that he is possessed by evil spirits?

Chen Yibai rubbed his temples vigorously. He still had the Yinshi Pill on him, so even if there was evil here, he absolutely could not be possessed by it!

Since it's impossible for her to be possessed by evil spirits, it must be a 'visual illusion'.

The most bizarre and crucial aspect is that no matter which side you choose, you always end up exiting from the same exit.

Following this reasoning, since no matter which direction you enter, you will always come out from the same place, it means that the two entrances are connected at some point in the middle.

It's a true 'Y' shape, with two openings and one exit, and there must be a connecting intersection in the middle!

Xiao Hu, Qiu Jing, and Yan Wanlei went missing twice, which must be related to this hidden intersection.

In other words, as long as you know this hidden 'intersection', you can break through this maze-like passage!

Where would this 'intersection' be?

And why is it hidden so well that it is impossible to see with the naked eye?

And they even eat people!

"try to find!"

Now that Chen Yibai had a general idea of ​​how to solve the problem, he entered the right-hand passage again.

At this point, the incense sticks inserted in the right-hand passageway had almost completely burned out.

To improve visibility, Chen Yibai replaced the candles one by one and lit them.

The candles placed in the niche burned with a green light, casting an extremely eerie glow on the entire passageway, as if the passageway led to the underworld.

Looking at the green firelight reflected in the passageway, Chen Yibai suddenly seemed to remember something and quickly turned off the flashlight in his hand.

The white LED lights went out, leaving only flickering, eerie green flames in the entire passageway.

At the same time, the scene Chen Yibai saw in the passageway also changed...
