Lapis lazuli ring—she looked at the ring carved from whole lapis lazuli that Tie Yiran had taken out of the mummy's throat. It's a beautiful blue, and the golden pyrite scattered among them is like countless shining stars in the starry sky. Does wearing such a ring on your hand make you feel like the sky is in your hand? Tie Yiran braided a string for her and asked her to hang the ring around her neck as a pendant.

"Won't I be possessed by a female ghost like this?" She took the ring with a non-smiling smile.

"If she follows you all the time, it's like being possessed." Tie Yiran smiled, "If she follows you, she won't make trouble in the research institute, and everyone will come back to work." ”

Use her as bait? "But what does this pharaoh want to do?" I actually have to evaluate whether she is capable of doing it, so it is better to go directly to someone who is capable and pester her to do something?

Tie Yiran didn't answer directly, but said, "What do you think the pain that death can't get rid of?" ”

Could it be that Tie Yiran wanted to say that Hatshetshep had pain that he could not even get rid of by death, and that what he wanted her to do was to free herself from some kind of pain? "How do I know? In my tenure, death is the end of everything. She said.

"That's right." A faint smile appeared on Tie Yiran's face, "So, you don't have to do anything for her at all, because this female pharaoh herself is long gone. ”

What's going on? Tie Yiran's smile just now has a kind of desolate and distant loneliness, maybe the professional killer has an incomprehensible past and pain? "So what should I do next? Running around the streets with female ghosts? ”

"She won't hurt you anyway, just treat it as if you had a pet that doesn't need food." Tie Yiran tilted his head and smiled.

Pet...... She glanced at the female pharaoh behind her, who didn't seem to be angry at the term "pet" - perhaps it was not the same as "pet" in ancient Egypt - but remained like a statue, not even expression.

The next day, Wen Xin smiled cheerfully when he saw her: "Yo, Shi Sui, did you meet a ghost last night?" ”

"Uh...... "Not only did I encounter it, but I was also haunted by ghosts." I think I heard something strange......" she laughed dryly, "but luckily, I didn't really encounter anything strange." ”

"Really? I thought that when outsiders came, the ghosts who live here would come out and bully you. Wen Xin smiled and patted her on the shoulder, "Maybe there is some gap, the wind blowing through the wind." ”

"Who knows." Regardless of what others heard or saw, she did see the rumored female ghost. Hey? There seems to be a strange figure beside Wen Xin, is it dazzling?

Tie Yiran looked at Wen Xin with a somewhat solemn expression, "There is still this effect...... Spike, you have to be careful during this time in the institute. ”

Be careful? "What's the unusual problem?" She was shocked.

Tie Yiran looked at Wen Xin's back and said thoughtfully: "Well, it seems that there is not only one ghost in this research institute, but another terrible thing has also been dug up. By the way, not only do you not want others to see that lapis lazuli ring, especially Wenxin. Also, for your own safety, it's best not to leave either. ”

"Huh?" Puzzled, she retorted, "Why?" ”

"Don't ask now, I'll tell you later." Tie Yiran patted her head and said.

Tie Yiran really knew something. "You said you would confirm your hypothesis last night and tell me the answer, but you didn't say anything." She reminded.

"Do you remember that?" Tie Yiran raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He wanted to act like he hadn't said it? "Of course I do, so can you say it now?"

Tie Yiran smiled lightly and said, "Do you know why science can't prove the existence of ghosts? We can only see the images that our brains make. In fact, even if I am a ghost, neither the person nor the equipment here can prove it, because I have all the people see the same image. ”

When he said this, she suddenly felt furious. "And then?"

"Don't you understand? Whether it's the female pharaoh you see or someone else hears a voice, it's possible that something is acting on your brain to make you think you're seeing or hearing something. "I think there must be something like that in that mummy and in the funerary goods found." ”

She was surprised and said, "The 'something' you are talking about can't be this lapis lazuli ring, right?!" ”

"I can't say for sure." Tie Yiran said with a smile.

Aha...... Forget it, it's not the first time she's been cheated anyway. "But what's going on with that figure next to Wen Xin? She didn't take anything out of the mummy and put it on her. "Could it be that there are other things that will make ghosts go?

"I don't know this yet, but judging from what you said, maybe Wen Xin has been controlled by the so-called 'ghost', and the one who controls her is different from the female pharaoh who is next to you, she is a more dangerous guy." "Maybe what the female pharaoh wants to do has something to do with that dangerous guy." ”

She didn't deal with legendary monsters enough before, and now she has to travel through the Yin and Yang Realm and deal with ghosts?! "Could it be that guy is the murderer of the female pharaoh? Or was that the man the prisoner who kidnapped the female pharaoh to China? "What a powerful kidnapper was able to kidnap people from Egypt to China more than 3,000 years ago!

"I'm afraid only a female pharaoh can answer this question." Tie Yiran spread his hands and said.

She wanted to ask, but the female pharaoh was the boss of the shelf, and he didn't even glance at her out of the corner of his eye, let alone talk to her. "Yiran, when am I going to be a head like this?" If the female pharaoh were to observe her behind her for the rest of her life, wouldn't she have to carry a spirit behind her for the rest of her life?! Besides, if she can't do what the female pharaoh does, will she be cursed? "Can any clues be found from the other things that have been excavated?"

"I don't know." Tie Yiran replied quite simply, "It will take a lot of time to investigate one by one. ”

So, she still doesn't know how long she will have to spend with this arrogant female ghost? She smiled bitterly, "I want to take this female pharaoh back with me when I go back to Huizhou?" ”

"I sincerely hope that this matter will be settled before you go back." Tie Yiran had an expression of schadenfreude smiling, "I didn't expect you to have this special function of 'psychic eye', so you should take care of it more." ”

"If you say that again, I'll turn my face." She wanted to turn her face now.

"Don't be angry, I'm just joking, let you relax." Tie Yiran patted her on the shoulder and said, "Besides, this matter may be related to the ancient super-civilization, and it is not so easy to figure out." ”

"Ancient super-civilization?" Speaking of which, the crystal skull belongs to the "Opaz (Opaz refers to the fossil-like artifacts of animals and plants excavated from ancient strata, and is also a general term for the relics of ancient supercivilizations)", which should not have appeared in the Bronze Age more than 3,400 years ago. "What kind of ancient supercivilization refers to the Atlantean civilization? But isn't the crystal skull a product of the Mayan civilization? The most famous crystal skulls were also found at the ruins of the Mayan civilization. She said to herself, "I've heard that the crystal skull has a hypnotic effect, could it be that because of this, I and the others will see and hear strange things?" ”

Tie Yiran smiled, "This is an archaeological research institute, not a paranormal research institute, how do you want me to answer?" ”

"Aren't sciences interconnected?" She said angrily.

"yes." Tie Yiran didn't refute, "So I don't deny any possibility." ”

――Can you see the figure following the woman?

The female pharaoh asked suddenly, startling her. "I can see, what's wrong?" Could it be that Tie Yiran was right, what did the female pharaoh have with that mysterious figure?

- Don't let him find me!

The female pharaoh said with a horrified expression.
