living in the world of reincarnation

Chapter 58 Professor Chen

It took an hour for everyone to arrive at the Institute of Archeology, which is located near the university town, where there are many colleges and universities, and the dormitory buildings of Wang Chuan and the others are not far apart. It's not working hours, and the office staff of the unit have already left work.

There were still pedestrians on the street, and the four walked around where no one was paying attention. Shi Zhengyang patted the iron fence that was as tall as a person, and said, "Let's go in."

Of course, an iron fence of this height couldn't stop them. Shi Zhengyang grabbed the fence and flipped over lightly before leaping over. Mu Lan and Lin Yiyi looked at each other, put their hands on each other and flipped over.

The three entered the courtyard of the research institute but found that one person was missing. Looking back, Zhao Ziyu was still outside.

Lin Yiyi glanced at Zhao Ziyu, and said with a smile: "Can you turn in, young master?"

Zhao Ziyu said angrily: "Who are you looking down on? I'm just warming up." He rubbed his hands together, pretending to be warming up before exercising, and seeing the three people staring at him intently, he also felt sorry for wasting time, so he stretched out His foot got stuck on the carved fence, because there were spikes on the top of the fence, Zhao Ziyu avoided the sharp point with a particularly funny gesture, and slowly moved in.

"Can you do it!" Lin Yiyi laughed.

"Don't talk." Zhao Ziyu finally moved in, jumped on the ground, and said with a sigh of relief: "When I was a child, my father locked me in the yard, and I was poked when I climbed over the fence. Now when it comes to climbing over the wall, I don't know." There are shadows."

"Okay, let's get down to business!" Shi Zhengyang said seriously.

Walking around outside the unit's office building, Mu Lan found that a light was on.

Shi Zhengyang wanted to unlock the lock with a pistol equipped with a silencer, but Mu Lan stopped him, and then controlled a small amount of mental power to open the door with a small wind blade, and the four quietly sneaked into the building.

When they came to the third floor of the office building, the last room on the left was the one with the lights on. As soon as the four of them went upstairs, they found that the lights had been turned off. Mu Lan was puzzled. They had already tried their best not to make a sound. Or was it discovered?

So without a pause, everyone rushed into the room. The door was not locked, and as soon as the door was opened, there was a smell of smoke. This is a storage room with a lot of sundries and old books piled up. On the side, there are still unburned half cigarettes in the simple ashtray made of pop cans.

"He ran away!" Shi Zhengyang looked at Mu Lan.

Mu Lan released [Detection] and pointed to a direction for a moment, "He's on the other side of the corridor, going down the stairs!"

This time it was Mu Lan's mistake, because the copy pointed to the mysterious ghost from the beginning, so she did not take Professor Chen seriously, an ordinary person, and did not release the detection spell from the beginning. This Professor Chen To be so vigilant.

Mu Lan took the lead and ran to the other stairs of this corridor. The person in her spiritual perception was the Professor Chen she saw in the photo, but he ran very fast. When everyone ran to the stairs, he had already reached a building.

The originally dark corridor was shaken by the sound of their running, and the sensor lights lit up. When Mu Lan ran downstairs, she saw Professor Chen took a chain lock from nowhere and was about to lock the door. When she saw them When he came down, he was a little flustered, and the chain lock almost fell to the ground with a shake of his hand.

Of course, this kind of chains couldn't trap the four God's Chosen. Mu Lan waved a wind blade, and the wooden door was smashed to pieces. Professor Chen had never seen this kind of battle before, so he froze in place. confusion】.

Professor Chen stood there in a daze. Mu Lan got closer to see the whole picture of Professor Chen. This man was in his 50s, his face was unshaven and he hadn't shaved for many days. His appearance is similar to Zhao Ziyu's hairstyle when he just climbed out of the ancient tomb, and his overall image is scruffy. Some people would believe him even if he is not a university professor, but he is also a janitor.

Mu Lan snapped her fingers in front of Professor Chen. Professor Chen's pupils contracted and he blinked his eyes. Then he recovered. Seeing the four people with uneasy faces, he said, "You...how are you still alive?"

"Have you been disappointed?" Lin Yiyi giggled, then patted Professor Chen on the shoulder, and said in a cold tone, "Tell me, did you steal the corpse from the tomb?"

"What corpse?" Professor Chen helped the lens, looked around the four people and stopped on Zhao Ziyu's face, his face changed immediately, pointing at him and said: "You said it?"

Although Zhao Ziyu is Professor Chen's student, he doesn't know much about the past. He looked at Shi Zhengyang and Mu Lan for help.

Mu Lan winked at Zhao Ziyu, and then said to Professor Chen lightly: "Xiao Zhao has told us everything, please be honest about what happened in the ancient tomb, you should know about the curse, more clues will give you more ways to survive.

Because she didn't know exactly what happened, so she could only pretend that she knew a lot, with a serious expression, and stared intently at Professor Chen's eyes until his eyes dodged. This trick was done in the police station. What I learned from observing those comrades in the police force is that people who have something hidden in their hearts can't always hide their thoughts, and they will definitely show their flaws due to a sense of oppression or tension.

Shi Zhengyang added another fire. He pointed to the wooden door broken by Mu Lan, and then a pistol appeared out of thin air in his hand. He smiled and said to Professor Chen: "You have also seen that we are different from ordinary people. We are playing tricks and urging you to tell the whole story, otherwise we will kill or bury you."

Professor Chen glanced at the fragments of the wooden door on the ground. Maybe this supernatural power shocked him, maybe he felt that he really couldn't run, so he sighed and said, "Okay, what do you want to know?"

"Where is the corpse?" Shi Zhengyang asked in a deep voice.

"Corpse." Professor Chen was silent for a moment and said, "If you are referring to the tomb in the center of the ancient Shu ruins, then I can tell you that there is no corpse at all, and what I saw inside was also an empty coffin."

After Professor Chen finished speaking, Shi Zhengyang showed a surprised expression, "There is no corpse?"

If there is no corpse, then Shi Zhengyang's deduction about the source of the curse will not be established. Besides, how can an ancient tomb not have the corpse of the owner of the tomb? He is not convinced, thinking that the old man is lying to them.

Mu Lan stared into Professor Chen's eyes and couldn't tell whether what he said was true or not, so she changed the subject and asked other questions: "So you admitted it? You made those two robbery holes. In the archaeological team Did you sneak into the ancient tomb before the excavation?"

Professor Chen nodded slightly, as if it was difficult to speak, and after a while of silence, he slowly said: "I just don't want to be preempted by others for the things I have studied all my life. I don't want to rob the tomb. I will put everything back. .”

"To be honest, I don't care whether you rob the tomb or not." Mu Lan said, "We are all haunted by curses. You must have seen those ghosts. In order to survive, we must find the source of the curse."

"Then, break it!"
