The Anarchic Consort

This was undoubtedly the core problem at the moment.

Everyone knew that Chinese talismans were needed to resolve ‘going around the circles’.

Without the Chinese talismans, they were stuck here.

However, what just happened to Xiao Ling was a harbinger of how dangerous it was to stay in one place all the time. Something terrible might happen if they did not leave now!

Zhuge Yun clearly understood that they were in grave peril. He looked at Helian Wei Wei anxiously as he asked, “Brother Wei, do you have any ideas?”

Upon hearing Zhuge Yun’s question, all the other exorcists looked subconsciously at Helian Wei Wei too. Before they realized it, they already had a newfound faith in Helian Wei Wei.

Helian Wei Wei thought for a while and said, “Let’s try to walk with our eyes closed.”

“Isn’t it more dangerous to walk with our eyes shut?” The exorcists were not suspecting Helian Wei Wei’s ability, but it was a difficult thing to do.

Helian Wei Wei laughed, “When the officials raided the tombs in the past, there was a rule: one should enter with his back turned when opening the tomb and close his eyes if he did not know the directions in the tomb. ‘Going round in circles’ is the spirits interfering with human judgment through electromagnetic waves, which causes humans to lose their sense of direction. Spirits are of the Yin, while every one of you is an exorcist with a spiritual aura. After all, the spirits need a medium to harm people and creating an illusion in the human mind through electromagnetic waves is the most effective way to kill, just like what happened to Xiao Ling. If we walk with our eyes closed, we will instantaneously lose our judgment. Without judgment, the spirits have no chance to harm us, and we can escape this dilemma easily.”

Xiao Ling was stunned, he never thought that those evil spirits would have so many vicious tactics. He did not understand what electromagnetic waves were, but he only had admiration for the person before him.

“You know a lot, Brother Wei! Where do you learn all these?” All the exorcists were impressed with Helian Wei Wei after going through all those situations. They had never heard about electromagnetic waves even though they had been exorcists for so many years. When they thought thoroughly, it was true that the spirits jeopardized human lives with such a law.

Helian Wei Wei stroked her nose bridge and answered his question with a smile. It did not make much sense for her to say that she was very interested in this field so she had read and watched tons of related novels and movies back in the 21st century.

“Let’s go now!” Xiao Ling was the first to support Helian Wei Wei.

Zhuge Yun was a loyal person. He had long admired Helian Wei Wei as he had been her companion all this while.

“Not so soon. It must be dangerous in the tomb, so we must get ready beforehand,” said Helian Wei Wei with giggles. She looked relaxed as if all the Gordian knots could be solved easily. “The Qi of Yin is overwhelming the entire tomb, so we need to amplify our Yang aura. Since we have seven people in total, I will tie a red rope on everyone’s left wrist so that we will not get separated,” Helian Wei Wei said while taking out a red rope more than a hundred meters long which was fully soaked in pure Yang dog blood before.

Since ancient times, the pure Yang dog blood was regarded as a sacred exorcism material. As long as the rope was not broken at both ends, everyone would be protected from dangers and remain safe even when they encountered anything evil.

Zhuge Yun probably knew this formation. However, he did not expect that Helian Wei Wei would react this quickly to implement it in this situation. “Brother Wei, you have calculated wrongly, we have a total of eight people instead of seven,” Zhuge Yun uttered.

Helian Wei Wei turned over and looked at Baili Jia Jue upon listening to what Zhuge Yun said. His Highness is not included, he is not a human, she thought.

This formation would only function and work with the humans’ Qi of Yang. If the prince was included in this formation, it would definitely fail.

Helian Wei Wei was figuring out how to answer Zhuge Yun as she could not expose the true identity of Baili Jia Jue.

At this moment, she heard His Highness’ calm and natural gentle voice, “We need someone to stay back, I will be the one, you guys go first.”

Upon hearing it, not only Zhuge Yun but all the other exorcists were also touched, feeling gratitude. “Brother Jue, you are way too selfless and kind for you’re willing to do so much for us!”

Helian Wei Wei was speechless.

Selfless? Kind?

These two phrases are not deemed suitable to describe His Highness.

Inexplicably, Helian Wei Wei remembered the words His Highness had mentioned to the officials on the day they left the capital. She looked away from His Highness quietly and peeked at the roof of the tomb.

A simple lie was all he needed to win the people’s hearts; only His Highness could achieve this.

“Father is putting on an act again!” The bigger fetus snorted, “How could these humans believe in him? Selfless? Kind? Hah, I don’t think that’s our father’s character. He is a selfish and vicious person, these exorcists are st*pid!”

The smaller fetus did not say a thing but sigh deeply in the heart. He continued to suck his thumb while moving quietly. Brother has started to humiliate others just to slander father. Sigh, how long will this situation last?

Neither the exorcists nor Helian Wei Wei could hear the conversation between the two little fellows.

Everyone began to tie the red rope on their hands and closed their eyes after hearing the solution.

Zhuge Yun was the first to step out, and the others followed suit.

The tomb was dark and deep.

No one had noticed that there was a huge shadow with eight feet hiding in the darkness. It wriggled up slowly and its pair of demon-like red eyes were full of desires.

“What a fragrant soul, it must taste fantastic! Oh, the meat of the newborn babies must be tender and tasty!” The enormous shadow was murmuring with a deep voice. It mumbled to itself in the Yin River, “However, the man seems to be unfathomable, he can even cause the large group of corpse bugs to return here. I can’t go out just like this, I must wait until the woman is alone. Then, I will disembowel her piece by piece. Even though it is unbearable to wait for so long, but never mind, soon, I will enjoy my meal. Those humans are not united, I just have to wait for the perfect time.”

That’s right, it just had to wait for a little longer and they would have nowhere to escape.

The competition between humans was nastier than demons.

Especially in this tomb, the rise of evil thoughts would only give one a quicker death.

So, fret not!

The delicious dish is about to get into my mouth.

“Hehehe.” The shadow laughed eerily and slowly crept back into the darkness.
