But just as Bai Yunfei was about to walk back to the car, Li Yulan grabbed him and asked, "He just said, 'There is not even a shadow of a ghost', is this the sentence?" ”

Bai Yunfei was instantly empowered, and as soon as he was excited, his hands slapped directly on Li Yulan's shoulders, and shouted loudly: "Ah, that's right, you're still amazing, remember it at once." ”

The sky had darkened, and she couldn't see whether Li Yulan's face was red or not, so she quickly stepped back and pulled her shoulder out of Bai Yunfei's hand.

Bai Yunfei realized that the other party was a woman, how could he do this? It's not something you can do with a man to celebrate.

But after the shooting, Bai Yunfei had no choice but to hide his hands behind his back in embarrassment, and hurriedly changed the topic and said:

"Yes, that's it!"

Cao Longxuan's eyes shone unusually in the night that was almost completely dark, obviously excited because Bai Yunfei had found a clue.

Everyone looked at Bai Yunfei to see what he had to say.

Bai Yunfei cleared his throat and asked everyone, "You say, why is there no trace of the devil and no shadow?" ”

Su Lao Ghost is the "technical chief consultant" of everyone's team, and he is an expert in the exploration of the underground palace that everyone has to look up to, as soon as he heard Bai Yunfei ask this, he replied with some disdain:

"You baby has a fever in the brain, how can the ghost have a shadow? Ghosts don't have shadows. ”

"No, wrong!" Bai Yunfei retorted loudly.

When this old ghost Su heard that Bai Yunfei dared to challenge his academic authority in his later life, and wanted to spread "reactionary doctrines", did he have to do it?

It is necessary to use cultural criticism to suppress Bai Yunfei, so as soon as the triangular eyes glared, he began to educate Bai Yunfei in the style of "burning books and pit Confucianism".

Bai Yunfei raised his hand, stopped him, and then said at a fast pace:

"Why are you wrong? Because according to normal folk superstitions, or the summary of your rich experience, this ghost should have no shadow. Until now, there has been a debate in the academic community about whether there are ghosts or not. But I think ghosts have shadows. ”

Seeing that everyone was listening quietly, Bai Yunfei hurriedly continued:

"If, I mean if, if a ghost dares to stand in the sun, it still has a shadow. But have you ever seen a ghost who dares to come out in the daytime? ”

"Huh?" Old Ghost Su was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he was stuck, and he couldn't answer Bai Yunfei's question.

Because it is impossible for ghosts to come out to make trouble in the sunny day, only at night when the yin qi is heavy, the ghost qi is thick, and the heaven and earth are cloudy, can they dare to come out of the underworld to make waves.

But it is precisely because of this that no one has ever seen what the ghosts are like during the day, and even if they do, they are in the dark and lightless underground palace, and it is natural to encounter ghosts in the grave, because where is there sunlight?

Han Debang was already confused by Bai Yunfei, and said hurriedly: "What do you want to say?" ”

Bai Yunfei said categorically: "I mean, if you want to find out if there are any secrets in this devil city, you can't do it during the day, it must be at night, that is, we shouldn't go back." ”

"Huh?" Everyone, look at me, I look at you, I don't know if Bai Yunfei's conclusion based on his imagination is reliable.

Only Cao Longxuan has always been a staunch supporter of Bai Yunfei, he patted Bai Yunfei's shoulder hard, and said loudly: "And whether it is correct or not, at least what Yunfei said is still reasonable, and it is worth trying." ”

But how to try? No one knows.

And just now, Bai Yunfei pretended to be an "academic authority" and talked nonsense, trying to support his argument with the theory of "shadow theory", but how can there be any argument to speak of?

Even if Bai Yunfei's guess was right, in this vast Gobi, how could such a huge devil city know where the tomb or entrance was?

So after finishing speaking, Bai Yunfei regretted it, if he couldn't find it, and forced everyone to suffer in this cold desert late at night, then he would become a sinner.

Bai Yunfei was trying to find some kind of excuse to overturn his previous fallacy, and then everyone would return to the city first, and then come back tomorrow to explore.

I heard Han Debang shouting: "Look, look at my shadow." ”

When everyone heard this, they were all startled, thinking that he had been ghosted, and even his shadow was abnormal, so they hurriedly looked down at his shadow.

You must know that this kind of thing is not a joke, if someone is on the body of a ghost and is not rescued in time, they will become a walking corpse, no different from a ghost, and they are no longer human.

But everyone looked at him for a long time and didn't find anything unusual about his shadow, so they asked him puzzled, what's wrong with your shadow?

Han Debang said: "Today's big white moon is very bright, you see, how clear our shadow is." ”

"What's the use of looking at shadows? Can you see the flowers? Or can you see the money? "Wang Ziming has always rarely spoken, but as long as he speaks, especially if he refutes others, he will most likely be a poisonous tongue.

"Brother Bai is talking about shadows, but what he means is that he can't find out why he can't find out during the day, and he needs to check it at night. His shadow view is nothing more than an attempt to illustrate that there is a difference between day and night probing. In Niu Gang's Northeast dialect, you are really 'the old hat into the city—you can't even tell the difference between a restaurant and a thatched house'? ”

As soon as his mean words came out, Lu Wuyang and Su Lao Ghost burst into laughter, making Han Debang so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time, so he simply sat on the ground and patted his thighs, like a woman scolding the street on the street, and began to play scoundrel:

"Heaven, earth, which fairy sister can breathe this for me?"

Everyone knows that he is imitating the lines in the comedy star sketches in the Spring Festival Gala, and it is important to do the right thing, so everyone is trying to think of ideas, and no one pays attention to him.

But the boy seemed to be finished, and he was crying again, "Oh, look, what does that look like?" ”

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he hurriedly jumped up from the ground, grabbed everyone's arms one by one, and looked at the place he was pointing.

Everyone looked over, in front of them were undulating earth mountain bags and earth beams, earth ridges, gaps, etc., in the bright moonlight, the cold black pressure undulating and coherent, how could there be the shadow of half a ghost?

When he saw that everyone didn't think so, he gritted his teeth in anger and called everyone a bunch of mentally retarded.

Cao Longxuan patted him and told him not to worry, and to speak slowly if he had something to say.

Han Debang pointed to the tall hill-like earthen beam in front of him and said, "You guys are really confused, what kind of ghost are you looking for?" Can ghosts still stand at the foot of the mountain and sing like us? This mountain is the devil. ”

When they heard this, they looked at it again carefully, and everyone exclaimed.

It turned out that the earthen mountain beam, which was far ahead, suddenly rose to a steep height like a ghostly axe, like a thick mountain peak standing on the mountain beam, and this mountain peak turned sharply at the cliff, and sank steeply to the bottom of the valley of the gap.

This abrupt geological formation, if you look at it in the daytime, is just a common terrain of the Yadan landform, after tens of millions of years of wind and rain erosion, nothing more than some unique shapes.

If you want to find some topics from it, including other special shapes, it is just what its shape looks like.

However, in this moonlit night, when the moonlight illuminates the ridges and earthen beams and other light-facing places, plus those features that are completely hidden in the dark shadows by themselves or nearby features, they form a structure of light and dark. When all these overall outlines of light and darkness form a picture, you will find that it is like a painting, painted with a devil-like existence, and it is very distinct.

There is a crouching body, a head, a neck, and an upper body, and in the vivid contrast of light and shadow, it can clearly show the parts like a hood, as well as the forehead, eyebrow bones, eyes, nose, upper and lower lips, the tip of the chin, etc., and even in the shadow of the bottom gap, in the background is the contrast of the sky, you can see a few shadows like the claws of a monster at the bottom of the mountain.

The composition of the whole picture is like a lion lying on the ground, looking forward with its head held high.

"Yes, it's like the Sphinx of Ancient Egypt!" Wang Ziming shouted loudly.

And so it was seen by all.

Han Debang exclaimed, "It's true that it looks like a sphinx, but isn't it more like a devil?" You see, it stares wickedly and hideously ahead, as if it is about to devour people's souls in the next moment. ”

Hearing him say this, everyone looked at the front of this "devil", that is, on the opposite bank of the gap valley, there was an abrupt "man" standing on the undulating mountain beam, slender and tall, and he was really going to be eaten by the devil across the valley.

When this picture extends here, it looks particularly weird, terrifying and evil, and it can really frighten people to see this scene in this dark night.

"That's not right!" Old Ghost Su suddenly jumped up from the spot excitedly, pointed at the "person", and his voice changed excitedly: "This is not a person, this is not a person, this is a seventh-level Futu Tower!" ”

Hearing him say this, everyone looked at it again, and found that there was indeed no place like a person, neither a head, nor a torso and limbs, but it had the architectural characteristics of a pagoda such as a spire, cornices, a tower body, a tower base, and a retracted arch.

In this contrasting composition of moonlight and shadow, this is completely a delicate pagoda, and the surrounding lines are so delicate and clear that it is absolutely incomparable to the abstract judgment of "people".

There is a Buddhist saying: "Saving a life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter." "Futu Pagoda, suppress all demons and ghosts in the world.

"But," Lu Wuyang scratched his head and asked very puzzled:

"With all due respect, it's my first time participating in our kind of activity, and it's normal to have no experience, so don't laugh at me.

I don't understand at all, you have been studying for a long time and saying this lot of nonsense, but what problem can you solve?

This one is like a devil, the other is like a pagoda, but what about the ancient tomb we are looking for? We're not here to find the devil and the pagoda, and what we're looking for is still unfounded. ”

Listening to his tone, this guy has been frozen by the cold temperature now, and he began to complain.

Li Yulan interjected at the right time:

"Do you think my analysis is reasonable? If this tower is seen as a man, then this devil is going to eat this person, that is, this devil is coming for this person.

But if it is a tower, then there is no possibility that the devil will eat the tower, but it should be the pagoda to suppress the devil. Do you think it's okay for me to understand it that way? ”

Everyone nodded yes.

"So, let's look at this overall picture, the pagoda is blocking the way of the devil and is bound to suppress it.

And the devil knows that there is such a terrible existence as a pagoda, but he is still eager to try, and he doesn't even want to stop, so where does it want to go and what does it want to do? ”

"I'll be a good girl!" Old Ghost Su shouted, everyone also looked at Li Yulan like a monster, and looked at her a little hairy.

In order to relieve her embarrassment, Bai Yunfei hurriedly stood up and said: "This idea is so good, it is much more powerful than my cranky imagination this day, not only magical, but also rigorous in analysis, amazing!" ”

After Li Yulan's reminder, the answer is already coming out.

This huge shadow devil stares ahead, even if there is a threat from the pagoda, and wants to go where it wants to go.

So the crowd looked ahead to the point where its gaze had been looking, and behind the pagoda was a rift valley in which the ridges of the mountains rose and fell into the cliffs.

Li Yulan turned on the wolf's eye flashlight, and the cluster flashlight shot into the dark rift, but because the distance was too far, it couldn't shine there at all.

However, according to the direction of this pillar of light, everyone has roughly judged the location there, regardless of whether there is something there that everyone is looking for, at least according to the current way of thinking, everyone has found the direction.
