Chapter 2723 Death at Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum 8
When they looked at them, they felt an immense pressure pressing down on them, as if they had run a lap over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau instead of lying on a plain. Breathing was so difficult. If that person hadn't only looked at them for a few seconds, they might have already gone to meet their ancestors in another ten or so seconds.
"It seems that person really is the legendary immortal. He just didn't discover us. At most, he just suspects that there are people here."
Wei Yan spoke, panting heavily, sweat pouring down his forehead.
"How do you know he didn't notice us? His aura is too strong. I can't take it anymore. I never thought that being able to breathe so freely would be such a blissful thing." Xu Daben was naturally large-scaled because of his burly physique, and he was probably the most uncomfortable person besides Duan Gang from the oppression just now.
"You mean he just released his aura to exert pressure on this area. If any of us couldn't withstand it and cried out, we would have exposed ourselves. It was a probing probe, and he had no idea we were here."
Gao Qingyou quickly guessed the meaning behind Wei Yan's words.
"That's one possibility. Otherwise, given his aura just now, if he had been targeting our position directly, we might have already died from lung rupture."
"So another possibility is that he's warning us not to easily set foot on his territory, or we'll face the consequences?"
"That's not impossible. However, I think the former is more likely. After all, we're not the only ones who have spied on the imperial tombs over the years; even the government must have sent people here. So this might just be part of their routine search."
Qingyou and Wei Yan analyzed the situation back and forth, trying to figure out whether their trip had been exposed.
"What's the point of saying all this? It's all just guesswork. Instead of thinking about why he did this, let's think about the result. The result is that we are all safe and sound, while he has already turned around and left. So let's skip the process and get the answer directly: we were not discovered. No matter how you discuss it, you won't come up with anything. Just listen to me, it's okay, let's keep going."
Duan Gang's words directly interrupted Gao Qingyou and Wei Yan's discussion. Indeed, by skipping the process and looking at the result, the group could pretend that nothing had happened.
Instead of making guesses and letting your mind waver, it's better to just move forward directly.
A gentle breeze blew by, caressing everyone's faces.
Perhaps it was the force of the wind that pushed everyone to their feet, brushed off the dirt, and took a deep breath.
“From now on, we don’t need to think about those useless things anymore. We’ve already received the money and signed the contract, so we’re definitely going in to help the employer retrieve what they need. That means we’re bound to be at odds with the gravediggers. Even if we didn’t encounter them just now, we definitely will later! But… let’s think about what to do when we meet them!”
After saying that, Qingyou gazed in the direction the person had left, and no one knew what she was thinking.
When Tian Jingyi heard Gao Qingyou say that, his eyes also became deep.
