Chapter 763: To See In A New Light

What? Going around in circles?! Why didn’t you say so earlier?!
the other exorcists shouted.
That exorcist spoke in a hoarse voice,
I have also just realized this. Keep your voice down. Take out your Chinese talisman, then spin yourself three times at your place before walking forward.

Going around in circles was not something difficult to solve.
However, it was frightening because they would be left forever in the place if they could not break through this obstacle. They would remain in the same place walking round and round for years.
Luckily, they were exorcists who knew how to face this kind of problem.
Everyone quickly opened their bags and prepared to cast their spells.
Then, they suddenly realized that the Chinese talismans in their bags were all gone!

How can this be? Where are my Chinese talismans?


Mine is gone too!


Search again!


I still can’t find any!

Zhuge Yun raised his head, his face was sweating. The situation was clear: somebody played tricks on them by taking away their Chinese talismans.

Who did this? Why did they do this?
Zhuge Yun punched the ground.
Helian Wei Wei was barely surprised.
This is a contest, of course, there would be many indecent tricks. Young Master Yun, you should get used to these things.


I…
Zhuge Yun was always steady and calm but he had never thought of hurting anyone. Although he already knew the contest would not be easy, he never expected someone to be this despicable. In the tomb, taking all the Chinese talismans away meant to take their lives away!
Helian Wei Wei looked around her then stood up and patted the dust on her hands away.
There were nine of us when we departed, but there’s only eight of us now. Someone must have noticed something wrong and escaped earlier. It seems like he has prepared well for this.

The exorcists somehow knew who did this trick. They must be someone from the Ni family or the Lin family. Only these two families would want to prevent the Zhuge family from obtaining victory. Usually, a method this cruel could only be ordered by the head of the family.
If this was by the hands of the Ni family, then this incident was too horrifying.
They trusted Ni Biao so much and absolutely admired him as their role model of an exorcist!

It couldn’t be the Ni family!
A young exorcist said while biting his lips. He refused to admit his own guess.
Helian Wei Wei looked at him and said nonchalantly,
It doesn’t matter who did it now.


True.
The elderly exorcists always looked steady and calm.
Little Brother Wei was right, it doesn’t matter who did the trick. For now, we should be concerned about getting ourselves out.

Without Chinese talismans, they were like the meat on the chopping board. Regardless of any problems they encountered, it could only lead them to be harmed by others.
Moreover, the inside of the tomb was unlike the outside world. No one could expect what would happen next.
Facing the fear of the unknown made everyone feel the coldness coming from the bottom of their minds, sending chills down their spine. There was no wind in the tomb but they felt like they were followed by someone.
The exorcists dared not speak anymore, but the silence only remained for a while before the young exorcist, Xiao Ling seemed to have heard some noise.
With a little crying tone, he turned his head back and asked in doubt,
Why are you crying?

Crying? Helian Wei Wei suddenly looked serious in her eyes. She did not answer but roll up her long sleeves slightly and tightened her grip on the shining Exorcist Blade in her palm.
She was not sure if Xiao Ling really heard somebody crying.
However, staying silent was the best thing to do at the moment.
Helian Wei Wei used to read books on spirits and there was a story that went like this.
A farmer couple went home late after farming.
The husband piggybacked his wife who could not walk on the way home.
It was difficult to walk at night and the husband was tired, and the wife suddenly cried on his shoulder.
The farmer frowned and asked,
Why are you crying suddenly?

The wife felt odd, and replied,
I am not crying.

The husband knew that his wife was an honest person, and he suddenly realized something shocking.
My wife said she was not crying, then it must be true. Then, whose cry did I hear?
The farmer did not dare to continue thinking about it, hence he quickened his footsteps.
After they went home, the wife asked him about the cry just now, and he replied,
Luckily, I know you well, and I know a little about the rules. We would never get home if we turned and looked back.

The farmer was right because it was a taboo to look back while walking in the dark.
Everyone had three virtual body guardian lamps. One at the left, one at the right and one behind.
Obviously, the lamp behind Xiao Ling was blown out…
While the crying next to his ears grew louder, Xiao Ling noticed that Helian Wei Wei remained silent, as if she suddenly realized something. He dared not ask any further as cold sweat trickled down his forehead. His face was pale. As he looked up, he saw a dark shadow, his pupils immediately constricted,
What, what was that?!

Helian Wei Wei suddenly lifted her face and gazed at where he was looking at. She saw a human-like statue at the cave entrance.
That statue was obviously the one they had seen previously, but what frightened Xiao Ling was the statue’s eerie eyes that seemed to have moved and was staring at them.
The cold and spooky smile gave him a cold shiver.

No, we must leave this place!
Xiao Ling retreated in panic like he was facing a flood of monsters. No matter how the others yelled at him, he only repeated this sentence!
To the others, the statue did not move at all.
Helian Wei Wei looked at Xiao Ling and frowned. Then, she told Zhuge Yun,
Pass me the bottle.


Alright!
Zhuge Yun immediately got the bottle and passed it over.
Helian Wei Wei opened the bottle cover using her mouth and poured the cold water at Xiao Ling’s face.
The splash of cold water woke Xiao Ling up. While water droplets trickled on his face, he stared at Helian Wei Wei and realized that he would probably not be able to escape if he was not clear-headed enough. He burst into tears suddenly,
Thank you, sobs, thank you.


No big deal.
Helian Wei Wei smiled a little while patting his shoulder. She knew that he was still a young child, and it was probably the first time he faced such a situation. She put her hand on his shoulder and comforted him,
Calm down, don’t panic. If you hear anyone calling your name, don’t answer it.

Xiao Ling nodded. Unknowingly, there was nothing but trust in his heart from then on.
He believed in this man in front of him even more than he believed in the Jiang family. He trusted that this man would lead them out this terrible place safe and sound…
However, the other exorcists had not much confidence as they pulled their hair in a fret,
Without the Chinese talismans, how are we going to leave?
