Chapter Forty-Seven Is You

  Her boyfriend died, and Xiao Bailian committed suicide for love.

  Who would have thought that things would turn out like this? How much courage does it take for someone to dare shoot themselves in the head?

  There are many people in this world who commit suicide for love, but none of them happened right before our eyes. Now, this incident has inevitably brought us tremendous shock.

  "Take advantage of the fact that Sister Ah doesn't know yet and leave quickly." Tiebu Li suddenly spoke to us in a severe tone.

  Someone died in the village, I guess it's not a good thing for anyone. Besides, this village was already very strange, and all of this originated from us outsiders.

  "Does she still want to pursue us for something? It's not like we're the ones who killed him." As soon as Yu Gang heard this, his face fell. Now it seems that he didn't want to get involved with this woman after all.

  Tiebu Li was so anxious that he jumped up and down, speaking incoherently: "Although it wasn't you who killed the person, but to Sister Ah and the village elder, it's as if you did. Because you brought this outsider here, our village has always been peaceful, precisely because no one dared to enter that place. Whenever an outsider enters, a series of deaths will occur, sometimes even threatening the survival of the entire village."

  "When the time comes, you will also become a sacrifice. Anyway, some things can't be explained in a short while." Tie Bu Li left these words behind and hastily took Tiana away with him.

  The few of us were left standing there, Jason didn't quite understand what Tiebu had just said, so he asked in confusion: "What is a sacrifice? Does he mean to let us die?"

  The old professor nodded, his face also solemn, and it was unknown what he was thinking. Jason got this answer and shouted: "We didn't kill anyone at all, why should we be killed."

  "What are you foreigners making a fuss about? Do they need evidence to kill people? Even if they killed you, no one would know." Yu Gang shouted, his anger bursting.

  He vented his anger at Jason over the matter of Xiang Er, thinking that she was the mastermind and that everything was her doing.

  "Lawless..."

  I couldn't help but laugh a little. Does this place still need the law? So many people have died in the desert, who would know? It's all nonsense.

  We all started discussing countermeasures in a flurry of voices, I suggested that we should listen to Tiebu's advice and leave here quickly, because Hui'er is the one in charge, after all, when we found Tang Guangze's off-road vehicle earlier, she became somewhat unreasonable, that naked person, I'm afraid Hui'er already knew something was wrong at that time.

  However, Yu Gang immediately vetoed this proposal and said, "I don't believe that 'woman' can really kill all of us."

  The old professor also supported my proposal, after all, life is not for adventure, he said: "This thing happened so strangely, after all, we know it ourselves. If it happened in the desert outside the village, it would be easy to say, but this happened in someone's village. We have more important things to do and can't stay here 'female' long-windedly."

  The old professor's words were clearly saying that Yu Gang was emotional and we all knew that Yu Gang really liked Hui Er, he didn't believe that Hui Er would do such a thing. To be honest, whether or not she could do it, wasn't the main issue, because our purpose for coming here this time wasn't about this.

  Like an old professor, he knows his goal and will take fewer detours.

  At this moment, those who said they wanted to go to that place for fun came before us, looked at the corpse lying on the ground, and several of them immediately fell. The yellow-haired boy's eyes were red, just as he was about to get angry with us, the woman in black touched his shoulder, shook her head and said: "I know what happened, this is not the time to grieve, we still have to fulfill Marston's wish."

  Huang 'Mao' didn't say anything either, just looked at the person on the ground with a face full of sorrow.

  When everyone was silent, a hoarse voice suddenly came from the yard: "The 'Yin' world has revived, and all of you will die. To save everything, you can only go to the 'Yin' world in person."

  As soon as I heard the voice, I rushed out of the courtyard, wanting to catch the person who was spreading rumors and confusing everyone. But before I could reach the gate, I was stopped by the old professor. The old professor said: "You can't go out, once you go out, he will run away."

  "Do you know who he is?" I asked in a low voice.

  "I don't know." The old professor replied in a very low voice, "However, judging from what he said, he is very familiar with the events of 1950. So we can't alarm him, we need to think of a way to lure him out."

  The black-clad 'woman' beside us coughed twice, signaling us to shut our mouths. Then he asked in a low voice towards the direction of the courtyard gate: "What is the underworld?"

  The people outside the courtyard answered irrelevantly: "The things in the box are the offerings that guard the 'yin' space, you took them away, so it will make the 'yin' space open wide, and soon everything here will be swallowed by the 'yin' space, humans will no longer be human, and ghosts will no longer be ghosts."

  "So, where is 'Yin'?" I suddenly felt a chill on my back and couldn't help but shudder.

  "Tieban River." The sound of footsteps outside the door faded away, and a thin shadow grew farther and farther away.

  After that person left, I asked Professor Lao with a puzzled face: "Is what he said related to the black 'color' dark pattern box?"

  The old professor nodded, his face solemnly saying: "This matter was originally related to your grandfather's generation. Everything we did was for that box. Now the box is nowhere to be found, so we can only go to Tieban River."

  "What's really inside the box?" I asked. The person who just spoke said that the thing in the box was an offering to suppress the 'yin' space, what kind of offering is it?

  The old professor shook his head and said, "I don't know either. There was no record of this at the time, and Huang Daxian's confession did not mention it either. He must have concealed some things."

  The old professor's words left a layer of gloom in everyone's heart, and he continued to say: "Those who hired me guessed the consequences that would be brought about, so they sent me to find the box. Where is the box? What's inside? No one knows."

  At that time, Huang Daxian was detained and a record was kept. The things written on it were the circumstances of the death of the reconnaissance team in 1950. A old hand like Huang Daxian would definitely not reveal everything about such matters, after all, such things are unscientific.

  "Now that Huang Daxian is dead, I'm guessing no one knows where the box is." Yu Gang said as he pointed to the corpse on the ground: "Except for Huang Daxian's death being a bit special, the others all had a 'death character' carved into their faces. It's similar to what that person just said, they were all saying you will die, and they used the Uyghur language."

  As I listened to Yu Gang's words, my heart suddenly sank, and I asked in shock: "What are you trying to say?"

  Just analyzing it: "Those people Dr. Tang invited, which one of them is Uighur? They won't even speak the Uighur language, and I'm not unfamiliar with the Uighur language, but this doesn't sound like the Uighur language at all. It's probably an ancient Uighur language that only a few people can understand. Tiege also said that Hui'er is good at witchcraft, she must be involved in this matter."

  The more he talked, the more I could feel his hatred for Hui'er, it had almost penetrated into his bones. Upon Gang's every two sentences were related to Hui'er.

  Those who are in power are confused, while those who are bystanders see things clearly.

  I can see the problem at a glance as an outsider, but I don't want to expose him either. I think it's useless even if I say something, after all, it still depends on his own mindset.

  "You're clearly targeting individuals, young man. It's not me saying this, but you can't drag that little girl into every matter. I think she's quite good, very straightforward." The old professor said with a bitter tone, but didn't expect Yu Gang to ignore him, shouting: "You've all been deceived by her, she's a swindler, do you know that?"

  Yu Gang's emotions were extremely agitated, but in fact, Hui'er hadn't deceived him about anything, she just hadn't told him some things. I didn't take either side, after all, this matter was a case of "one willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten", with no absolute right or wrong. Just as I was thinking of comforting him, before I could even speak, I heard that woman in black say seriously to Professor Lao: "Teacher, I'm ready, let's hurry up and go."

  Damn it.

  It turned out that these people staring at the archaeological documents were the old professor's men, and in an instant, I felt like I had gotten on a pirate ship, even more terrifying than before.

  It goes without saying that this ship will definitely sink.

  The old professor was an undercover agent in Tang Guangze's research institute, no wonder he knew some things that Tang Guangze didn't know.

  I have two views on moles, good and bad. Of course, I now view the old professor as someone who absolutely cannot be trusted.

  After all, he can easily betray us, and of course, he will also easily take drastic measures against us. It's just that it hasn't reached that point yet.

  Yu Gang also discovered this problem, he didn't make a sound, I think he was just thinking about the mustard greens thing and didn't have any mind to care about these things.

  To be honest, I really want to slap him awake. The current situation is very unfavorable for us.

  Yu Gang burst out laughing and said with some sarcasm, "Not even giving me 100 yuan, Old Professor, you really are something."

  The old professor's face sank, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "I've already given him the money, several hundred yuan more."

  "Oh..." he responded with a sentence, and then chuckled and said: "So it was you who had been controlling the direction of things all along. I knew it, if Huang Daxian hadn't appeared, we wouldn't have ended up in this godforsaken desert."

  "I really don't understand, you've been at the institute for so long, but your heart is still elsewhere, your loyalty is questionable."
