Faced with Fan Xing's proposal, Li Yue directly expressed his disapproval.
As Li Yue spoke, the messenger eagle also said:
"I also think Li Yue is right. According to my previous experience of delivering letters, there is only one chance to choose. Now we are here relying on the protection of lanterns.
Once the funeral is over, this lantern may no longer be able to protect us. At that time, it will be very, very difficult to come to such a far place to get white rice.”
In fact, Li Yue knew that it was an understatement for the Eagle to say that the difficulty would be very high.
If you miss today and wait until later to come here and take away the sacrifices here, it will definitely be difficult enough to make people despair.
Unless Li Yue does it himself, even Yang Jian may not be able to do it.
"You really can't be careless about this matter. It can be seen from the previous situation that the funeral in the ancient house was actually arranged.
On the third day, we must get the food for the ghost feast on the fifth day. This is why we are allowed to move around during the funeral. If we stay near the ancient house and dare not move around, or we are not here;
Then the fifth day is a dead end for us."
Yang Jian also said with a serious face at this time:
"Similarly, if we fail to prepare enough food in advance, then when the ghost feast begins, the ghosts will lose control and we will be eaten in the ancient house."
As Yang Jian spoke, everyone's faces suddenly turned pale.
There was also a look of fear in his eyes.
It seems like I saw a scene of being eaten by a fierce ghost.
"So we must take away the sacrifices here while it is safe today, but the key now is to take away a few bowls of rice. This is also a test for us."
Li Yue said casually at this time;
He doesn't care about the sacrifices here at all.
Even if he doesn't take a bowl, Li Yue is still confident that he can survive the ghost feast.
As for Ding Hui, the worst case scenario is to put him into the ghosts and isolate him directly.
With Li Yue's current strength of ghosts, unless Zhang Dong recovers, there will be no ghosts that can break through Li Yue's ghosts.
Moreover, after seeing the bowls of offerings in front of the tomb, Li Yue also discovered something interesting.
If he thought correctly, if he wanted to survive the Ghost Banquet, he wouldn't need to use force at all and could easily get through it.
"This is indeed quite embarrassing." Yang Jian sighed involuntarily;
"If we are greedy and take away all the sacrifices here, it may be okay, but there may also be risks, and evil ghosts may be released to attack us;
If we were not greedy, we would only take one bowl, and by the time of the ghost feast on the fifth day, there would probably not be enough food, and we would also encounter unexpected events;
The degree of this really needs to be grasped by ourselves."
"What a headache."
Not only Yang Jian, but also Li Yang, Yingying and others could not help but rub their heads, feeling extremely confused.
I’m confused about how many bowls of white rice I should take away today.
The current choice is related to survival or death on the fifth day.
Can't be wrong.
Because judging from previous speculation, the white rice needed for the fifth day of the ancient house must be taken away today, otherwise there will be no chance to come here again.
Everyone agrees with this statement.
If you miss today, you won’t have a chance next time.
If I really wait until the fifth day of the ghost feast to get the white rice, I'm afraid I'll lose my life.
Otherwise, there is no need to be so embarrassed.
At this time, Li Yue was recalling the layout of the ancient house.
A strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart, as if the layout left by Zhang Dong was like a test for those who came after him;
It was just the courage of the person tested before, but now it is the brain that is tested.
"Five tombs, five bowls of rice, one bowl is definitely not enough, I think at least two bowls should be taken away."
After a brief pause, Fan Xing suddenly spoke.
Daqiang shook his head and said:
"We can only have more food, not less. If we eat less, it will not be enough to deal with the ghosts attending the ghost banquet on the fifth day. We will definitely be attacked by the evil ghosts, so we cannot hesitate in this choice."
After hearing this, everyone suddenly became more confused about how much rice was taken away.
"Have you seen that over there?"
At this moment, Li Yue suddenly pointed to a place not far away.
In front of a clearing there, stood a rusty shovel.
"If I am not mistaken, there must be a funeral on the sixth or seventh day, and the coffin will be buried in this old forest.
If these old tombs get out of control because of taking away the sacrifices, then the danger will increase next time we come here."
Li Yue remembered that after the ghost feast was completed, that is, on the sixth day, he had to complete the funeral.
When the time comes, everyone will need to carry Zhang Dong out of the old house and bury him here.
Originally, this was not a simple matter. If the terrifying existence buried here came out to cause trouble, Li Yue might not be fine.
But there is a high probability that others will not survive.
After listening to Li Yue's words, everyone first glanced at the shovel not far away, and immediately fell silent.
This shovel is obviously used to dig graves.
In other words, the purpose of the funeral is here.
When the time comes, everyone will definitely want to come here again.
If all the white rice is taken away now for the ghost feast on the fifth day, or too much is taken away, it will definitely break the balance here.
When the time comes for the funeral, there will be many dangers.
Everyone was silent for a while.
I don’t even know how to decide.
"Why don't we take three bowls of rice with us for the time being? This quantity will be more balanced." Fan Xing first looked at Li Yue, then at Yang Jian:
"Li Yue, Captain Yang, what do you think of this proposal?"
When others heard this, they all looked at Li Yue and Yang Jian.
Everyone present knows that the only people who can really make decisions in this place are these two people.
As for the remaining people, no matter what they say, they are just suggestions and cannot play a decisive role.
Facing Fan Xing's words, Yang Jian's eyes were full of thinking.
Seeing this, everyone could only turn their attention to Li Yue's direction.
At this time, Li Yue first glanced at everyone present, and finally his eyes rested on the collapsed tomb:
"Although the supernatural itself is contrary to common sense, there are still traces of many things in supernatural events."
I originally expected to hear something valuable from Li Yue.
But after Li Yue spoke, everyone was a little confused.
I don’t know what Li Yue wants to express.
But before anyone could ask, Li Yue seemed to know everyone's reaction, and then continued:
"Do you still remember that when Zhou Deng returned to the old house from here, he said that he would leave a stick of incense that he took from the old house here.
And now, an old tomb just happened to collapse here, and a ghost, suspected to be wearing high heels, walked out of the old tomb.
Haven't you ever thought that this might be related?"
After listening to Li Yue's words, everyone was stunned.
