Chapter 15: The Difference Between Science and Metaphysics

"What is he doing?"

Zhang Zhenshan heard the movement here and walked over with a puzzled face.

But at this time, Ye Zhiqiang couldn't figure out what Zhao Qi was doing, but he felt that the tone of his movements was full of a strange feeling.

The strange thing is that in this process, Zhao Qi has always been very serious.

He kept observing the cigarette wafting from the side, and the cigarette did not dissipate in the forest, but vaguely formed a white line, constantly going deeper into the forest.

Soon, the other investigators also came over curiously, looking at Zhao Qi who was walking in front with a confused face.

Ye Zhiqiang also specially adjusted the camera on his chest to ensure that this scene could be recorded, otherwise it would be difficult for people to believe it if he dictated it alone.

Ye Zhiqiang and others naturally didn't know that the method used by Zhao Qi now was the three-incense wayfinding method that had been passed down since ancient times in folklore.

This ancient method originated from witchcraft and was later prevalent in some charlatan sects.

Now this ancient method has naturally been lost, even if it is Zhao Qi, he also knows it from the folk mastery through the god list.

This was Zhao Qi's first attempt, so he was inevitably a little nervous, and he wasn't sure if it would work in the end.

But generally speaking, Sanxiang is looking for the way, which can clearly point out the direction in which the yin qi travels.

At present, Zhao Qi has basically been able to determine that the disappearance case was caused by the spirits, so finding the direction of the Yin Qi can roughly deduce the place where the spirits walked at that time.

And so soon a strange scene happened.

A yin wind blew around Zhao Qi's body, and this yin wind made the yellow paper in the sky begin to rotate irregularly around Zhao Qi's body.

A few seconds later, these paper money fell one after another, but the strange thing is that when these paper money fell, it was not around Zhao Qi's body, but as if driven by a force, it gradually paved a road composed of paper money in front of Zhao Qi.

Ye Zhiqiang and the others were standing behind Zhao Qi, so they couldn't see the consternation in Zhao Qi's eyes.

The first use of this ancient folk method is also new to Zhao Qi.

After all, when defending against demons in previous lives, it was usually the supremacy of force. At that time, folklore did not exist because it had long been lost and no one would use it.

But apparently, both the paper money and the wafting scent point to the path due west to the forest, which seems to be evidence that the spirit that caused the disappearance of the scientific team had been there before.

Zhao Qi's eyes soon lit up, and then he looked back at the few people who were already stunned behind him:

"What are you doing? Follow me! ”

While speaking, Zhao Qi took the lead in stepping on the paper money and walked forward.

Ye Zhiqiang, Zhang Zhenshan and others are confused.

The scene in front of me is normal but normal, and the paper money falling on the ground seems to be irregular, but it always falls in the direction of the west.

But it's not normal or normal, what's going on with the wind that swirled around Zhao Qi just now?

And normally speaking, since the wind is rotating, then these paper money should also fall around Zhao Qi's body irregularly.

Although several people were puzzled at this time, they quickly followed, because they became more and more curious about what Zhao Qi was going to do.

Looking at the dazzling paper money under his feet, countless guesses appeared in Ye Zhiqiang's mind.

But none of these speculations seem to be able to explain the strange thing that is happening right in front of you.

But Zhao Qi seemed very calm, always walking in the front, and gradually went deeper into the forest.

"What's that!"

At this moment, one of the investigators noticed something falling on the ground not far from the forest.

He quickly ran over, picked up something on the ground, and quickly ran back.

"Captain, it's an identity card that belongs to the missing scientific research team!"

Hearing this, Ye Zhiqiang quickly took the identity card and looked at it, which clearly read, the scientific research delegation, Professor Fu Qiang.

This made Zhang Zhenshan next to him also frown quickly, they had sent a lot of people to search the mountain in a large area before, but they didn't find this identity card.

And on the road that Zhao Qi is taking them to now, he can easily find the information left behind by the missing scientific research team.

This can at least confirm that the missing scientific research team must have appeared on this road, which means that Zhao Qi's method is feasible.

But no matter how you think about it, there doesn't seem to be any logical connection between them.

Could it be that you really rely on the fluttering cigarettes and the falling paper money to judge the direction?

The biggest difference between metaphysics and science is that all the components of science have the most solid theoretical logic as the foundation.

And metaphysics has no logic at all, but the strange thing is that it can work.

Just when everyone was puzzled by this, Zhao Qi, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped, he grabbed a handful of paper money again and threw it into the air, but this time it fell to the ground irregularly and did not form a guiding direction.

This made Zhao Qi's face begin to become solemn, and in the few seconds when he was stunned, Ye Zhiqiang and others caught up.

"The clue is broken, and the yin qi is gone here, and the spirit has hidden its whereabouts......"

Zhao Qi's words reached Ye Zhiqiang's ears, and he could no longer hold back the doubts in his heart.

"Mr. Zhao, what were you doing just now? We stumbled upon this ID tag on the way here, is it a coincidence or an inevitability? ”

Zhao Qi looked back at the identity card Ye Zhiqiang was holding in his hand, and then shook his head:

"From the perspective of folklore, there are no coincidences in this world, and all situations that seem to coincidences have a necessary orientation.

I suggest you check around here, and you should be able to find more clues left, and the people from the research team must have walked through this place.

I now seriously suspect that the disappearance of these scientists is due to the confusion of spirits.

Therefore, there will be no signs of confusion at the scene, because they are leaving the camp of their own accord, and they are also walking into the forest of their own accord. ”

Ye Zhiqiang's eyes were full of surprise, but he did not rush to refute Zhao Qi's point of view, but immediately waved his hand, and let the investigators behind him start to take the trace detection equipment and investigate in the dark in the forest.

As an agent, Ye Zhiqiang can sense that something is wrong in these things.

But in order for him to believe what Zhao Qi said, there must be enough evidence to confirm it.

Soon, Ye Zhiqiang also joined the ranks of the investigation, but Zhang Zhenshan did not move for a long time and always stood by Zhao Qi's side.

It seemed that he had finally waited for the right time to speak, Zhang Zhenshan looked sideways at Zhao Qi next to him:

"You seem to be very proficient in folklore."

These words made Zhao Qidu feel a little surprised.

"Mr. Zhang, listen to what you mean, you don't seem to be disgusted?"

Zhang Zhenshan's expression was a little intriguing:

"I've always believed that existence must be reasonable.

A lot of folklore knowledge left behind since ancient times can't all be groundless, right......"
