My Wife Is A Ghost Exorciser

Chapter 290 Terracotta Army

[ Work of fiction, I have read about the Terracotta Army and this one has no connection to the real world please read it as an fantasy story and do not connect it to real world]

" We are coming, give us two minutes!" There was no way Tao Guotin would let the four of them leave alone, he and Kong Kun wrapped their arms around Mei Xing's waist and started to climb down the stairs, as they reached where the others were—— Li Yiqian excitedly looked at them and pointed at terracotta figurines and exclaimed, " Look at this Tin Tin, Ah Kun! We found the Terracotta Army of the Lost Emperor…isn't this cool?" As he said that he reached out and touched the spear that one of the figures was holding, however, for a second he let out a loud 'ouch', causing others to jump.

" Just what are you doing, do you think this is not freaky enough?" snapped Fan Ehuang as she looked at Li Yiqian with reproach.

" What? I didn't think that this spear would still be sharp enough to cut my finger," Li Yiqian raised his hand and showed them his finger——Bright red blood dripped down the ground making the entire group feel sort of icky. " Does anyone has an antiseptic or bandage?"

" I do," Li Na raised her hand as she started to rummage in her bag, it took her a little time because of the darkness but after a few minutes, she pulled out a first aid box with a loud, " Aha, here you go Yiqian."

"Thanks," said Li Yiqian as he walked towards Li Na, big drops of blood dropped on the ground, everyone was looking at Li Yiqian which was why no one looked in Mei Xing's direction —— she was looking at the drops of blood on the floor as Li Yiqian got closer to them, one by one the drops vanished as if they have been sucked into nothingness.  Her expression turned green as she looked at the ground, the blood drops have vanished only leaving behind a chill that seem to have crawled up her spine and went straight to her heart.

Mei Xing's entire body went taut with fear and anxiety, especially so when she raised her head and looked at the Terracotta Army that was standing in front of them. When she stepped inside the tomb, these figures were nothing but cravings made out of fired clay but now behind each figure stood a pale, blue Smokey figure, with armour and weapon in hand, their skin seemed to be made of blue smoke giving a clear glimpse of the skeletal figure underneath,  as soon as she raised her head, those smoky figures all turned to look at her their eyes pure white with blood seeping out of them.

Terrified, Mei Xing lowered her head immediately when she was young, she met with a celestial master who told her that she should never make eye contact with spirits that were in unrest, especially with those spirits that were pure evil. Given that these spirits has been locked in this tomb for so many years, she was sure that neither of them was a good spirit.

" Hey, is it me…or does this place seem to have gotten even colder?" Li Na was wearing a sleeveless dress and thus when the temperature in the tomb suddenly dropped she was the first one to suffer, with goosebumps covering her arms, she rubbed her skin as she turned to look around before letting out a soft groan. " I think we should still go back, this place is giving me creeps."

" What are you talking about?" Having done wrapping a bandage around his finger, Li Yiqian looked at Li Na in disbelief. " This place is fu*king awesome, I can already count the dollar bills that we are going to get once we sell these babies' snapshots." He quickly fished out his cell phone and then started clicking pictures as he rushed to stand in front of a very fierce-looking terracotta soldier and said, " Cheese."

" Hey Yiqian, your phone is running?" asked Tao Guotin when he saw that Li Yiqian was snapping pictures with ease.

" Totally," sniggered Li Yiqian as he snapped the photos of the terracotta figurines. " Why?"

" Mine is out of battery, would you give me your phone? I need to finish my Livestream," responded Tao Guotin, even though he was a blowhard if he was being honest in such a dark, mushy place even his guts seemed to be failing and the constant chill that seem to rise and fall with every step that he took made his heart turn cold. After listening to Mei Xing, he was already scared and now as he looked at the fierce and vicious faces of the soldiers in the hall of the tomb, he couldn't help but feel that there was something wrong with this place, every question that the girls have raised seemed to be hammering on his heart.

Maybe they were right, they should just finish the live streaming and go back home.

" In a while mate, I need to click the images of this entire tomb and you know how much battery a Livestream takes up," said Li Yiqian, done snapping the images of the Terracotta Army, he then turned around and looked at the group with a thuggish smile as he wriggled his brows. "Let's get this party started."

After that, he left and Shi Caihong along with Fan Ehuang and Li Na followed after him, Shao Li Jun stayed with the three of them after taking a glance at the four of them. Tao Guotin saw that Li Yiqian had no intention of giving his smartphone to him and helplessly looked at the other's back before turning to look at Shao Li Jun. " Little fatty does your smartphone has any battery left?"

Little fatty shook his head as he waved his flashlight in front of them. " I wished it did, but I don't know what happened after we stepped inside the tomb, my phone's battery died even though it was almost fully charged."

A crease settled in between Tao Guotin's brows as he asked, " What about Shi Caihong and the others?"

"Their phone is dead too," answered Little fatty as he looked at his friends, he too seemed to have that something was wrong but what, he couldn't put his finger on it.

" Wait, you mean to say that only Yiqian's phone is running?" asked Kong Kun with his finger raised in the air, when Little fatty nodded. He frowned before looking at Tao Guotin. " How can that be possible? I saw Yiqian's battery, it was at sixty per cent while mine was at ninety-two, how is it that his phone is running but mine is dead?"

Tao Guotin opened his mouth to say something but Mei Xing cut him off as she stared at Li Yiqian's figure that was swallowed by the darkness. " Sometimes the devil has to throw a bait to lure its prey."
