Looking at the deep love between Professor Zhang and Xu Wenying as father and daughter, I felt a little sad, but more of an envy.
Blood is thicker than water. After hard work, Xu Wenying finally reconciled with her parents. But I don't know when I can reconcile with my parents and become like a real family.
Maybe, there will never be such a day!
"Professor Zhang, Hu Ling, there is a stone gate ahead!" Fu Jie, who was walking at the front, turned around and shouted to us.
Hearing this, we hurriedly quickened our pace and walked over.
I saw a corner not far ahead. The corner was filled with thick fog, and a tall and magnificent arched stone door was looming in the fog.
The stone door is carved with auspicious cloud patterns, and a dark dragon is coiled among the auspicious clouds, appearing and disappearing with the mist, as if it is alive.
I don't know why, but the moment I saw the black dragon, I felt extremely uncomfortable for no reason.
I looked at the stone gate attentively and saw that it was located in the southwest, exactly where the Gate of Death was. The entire stone gate was exuding bursts of black energy.
"Girl, do you see what doorway is coming? Can you go out through that door?" Professor Zhang looked at me and asked.
Fu Jie and Qian Zhiqi also looked at me. In the face of unknown territory, Professor Zhang and I have become the backbone of several people. They will not act rashly until we make a decision.
"There's something wrong with that door. It's best not to go through it!" I said with a frown.
I looked around. In front of me was the stone arch carved with a black dragon. Behind me was a withered and charred Bana flower. The underground river in the middle was still churning, and from time to time there were fish trying to jump onto the shore.
"Then what should we do now? We can't find the door and continue to stay in this shabby place being entangled by a few flowers, right?" Qian Zhiqi looked a little impatient, and walked towards the arch as he spoke.
"Zhiqi, come back here!" Professor Zhang shouted coldly, "Have you forgotten how those two people died?"
Qian Zhiqi stopped, looked back at Professor Zhang, and then at me, obviously not believing me.
"Professor, how old is this little girl? We have followed you in and out of many tombs. There is no reason why we can't go out until we see the door. How can we be trapped here just by this girl's words? Maybe we can enter that door soon.
Can you go out?" Qian Zhiqi said dissatisfied.
It’s my age again!
I suddenly felt that my fourth uncle and grandma wanted me to start helping people after I was twenty-three years old. In addition to the problem of yin and yang tribulations, there was also the problem of being too young and not being trusted.
"You can distrust me because I'm young, but let me tell you, that door is not as simple as it looks. If you really want to go in and die, I won't stop you, but you'd better not drag everyone down."
I was not polite, looked at Qian Zhiqi and said coldly.
In this case, being polite will be regarded as a sign of guilty conscience.
Among the six people, except for Professor Zhang and Xu Wenying, the other three are willing to trust me completely and leave their lives to me.
Although Fu Jie may not necessarily trust me, he respects me because of Xiao Han and Zhao Hu and because I promised to take the video to his grandma.
Zeng Yichen seems to be more profound and reserved than Qian Zhiqi, at least it hasn't shown on his face yet.
My words made Qian Zhiqi stand where he was, stiffening his neck like a young man, and seemed to be in a dilemma.
"Zhiqi, don't be impulsive. Maybe you can find another way?" Zeng Yichen pulled Qian Zhiqi's arm and said.
Qian Zhiqi snorted coldly, turned his head and walked to the side, squatted down, took out a pack of compressed biscuits from his backpack and ate it.
"Hu Ling, do you think we can go out? Master Xiao Tianshi and the others don't know where they are now." Xu Wenying came up to me and asked me quietly.
"I will definitely find a way to get everyone out of this place. Since they are not here, there must be an exit from this place." I told Xu Wenying.
"Well, do you need my help?" Xu Wenying nodded and asked me.
"Take care of yourself and Professor Zhang!" I said, took out the black gold compass and started to divine.
Many psychics or Feng Shui masters use compasses for positioning or reading Feng Shui, but Sanqi has a unique method of using compasses for divination.
When I was in Shouning Village, Granny Epiphyllum once told me that Grandpa Xiu Cai was a master of divination in those days. If you give him a compass, he can even predict the men and women who are about to visit him, and the clothes will be exactly the same.
I was surprised and admired him very much, so when I was on Yanjiang Street, besides practicing Qi, I also learned divination according to the methods in the Heavenly Book.
I remember one time when my third uncle and grandma were chatting with me, she said that there are too many hexagrams but they are not accurate. This means that a spiritualist has a certain number of divinations in his lifetime. Therefore, many spiritualists only predict three divinations every day or even every month.
Hexagrams, after this number, no matter how much money you spend, you can't get a hexagram.
This is the first time I have officially used this compass since it came into my hands.
The compass needle started spinning crazily.
Finally, the pointer floated and moved erratically, pointing in the direction of the stone gate.
Bad luck!
I frowned tightly and looked at the stone gate. What would be there? Why would it be so dangerous? Is there any other way to this place?
Professor Zhang looked at me and asked worriedly, "Can't I leave here even after exiting that door?"
"I don't know exactly what's going on behind that door yet, but the number I divined with a compass is very bad!" I told Professor Zhang truthfully.
But obviously Professor Zhang’s relationship question was a little biased. He asked me in surprise: “Can a compass also predict fortune?”
I smiled and said, "Anything can be used for divination, but it will differ depending on each person's habits and sect."
Professor Zhang nodded, "You are the youngest but extremely smart psychic I have ever seen. No wonder even Xiao Tianshi looks at you differently. This is the first time I have seen him come out with someone. In the past, Tianshi Mansion
Elder Zhang’s daughter wanted to follow him, but he refused without mercy!"
I felt a little embarrassed by Professor Zhang's praise and asked casually: "Have you known Master Xiao for a long time?"
"It has been almost thirty years now. I have known him since I joined the research group. He is an amazing person!" Professor Zhang said.
I was slightly surprised. Thirty years ago, even though Xiao Han was only twenty years old at that time, he is fifty years old now, but now he looks only about thirty.
But now is not the time to worry about Xiao Han's age, the most important thing is to take everyone out of this weird place.
Looking around, I can't see any other exits. The river is definitely not accessible. It's full of yin fish that stare eagerly. Behind it, there are patches of withered and charred Bianhua flowers, and it's full of desolation.
I fiddled with the compass in my hand again, but the pointer was pointing in the direction of the stone gate. It seemed that there was no other way to go except that stone gate.
"How is it?" Professor Zhang asked me again with hopeful eyes.
I shook my head, "I'm afraid this is the only way out."
"But the hexagram you divined is a sign of great misfortune?" Professor Zhang asked me.
