Chapter 881: Not bad! The wind blowing over is indeed an evil wind!

Therefore, no one sympathized with the plight of this Young Master Zhao, even though he appeared very innocent; the mistakes he had made previously were simply too numerous.

Even if these people wanted to speak up for him and forgive him.

The group had only walked forward for less than two minutes, but for some unknown reason, it felt as if they had been walking for a long time. At this moment, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Why do I feel a bit strange!"

Xu Lang's earlobes twitched again, and he said immediately: "Did you all feel a wind blowing over?"

If it were before, no one would have paid any attention to Xu Lang if he said such things; after all, no one else had felt any wind blowing. If they couldn't hear the sound of water, could they not hear the sound of wind?

The key is that when wind brushes against the cheeks, there is a particularly clear sensation. In such a confined space, even the slightest breeze can be felt immediately.

Yet, why was it Xu Lang again? The Zidu Underground River had been discovered by him just moments ago. So, upon hearing this statement from Xu Lang, everyone subconsciously stopped in their tracks and turned to look at him.

Because even Yang Lusi had not felt the existence of any wind. However, she still looked at Xu Lang and asked seriously: "Xu Lang, are you sure?"

Xu Lang hesitated a bit at this moment, but he still gritted his teeth hard and said: "I know all of you think I'm not normal, but it really is like this. I don't know why either."

This sentence explained not only the current situation but also the series of things from just before. Others hadn't discovered them, but he had. Even if everything was true, this at the very least could still arouse suspicion from everyone.

Suspicion as to whether this Xu Lang had been affected by something, or if he had been a special existence from the very beginning.

If that were the case, then the group's vigilance would not just be directed at the Ancient City of Jingjue itself, but also at their teammates beside them. At first, they only thought that doing something about Young Master Zhao would suffice.

But now, if this matter were true, even Yang Lusi would have to rethink the problem from a different perspective.

Right now, no one continued to walk forward, and Yang Lusi did not ask Xu Lang any further questions.

Meanwhile, inside the Crescent Hotel, someone immediately asked: "Mr. Zhang, is there really something strange about this Xu Lang?"

Upon hearing this question, Zhang Lin smiled slightly and then said: "Actually, the suspicion from everyone in the Second Archaeological Team is not without reason. The key lies in a detail they failed to notice."

A look of suspicion appeared in everyone's eyes. Before they could ask, Zhang Lin continued. Zhang Lin's tone paused for just a moment, and then he continued: "Did you notice the snake blood? Xu Lang's reaction was more agile than everyone else's from the start. It's not that the others were particularly dull."

"When the sound of flowing water was first heard, Yang Lusi heard it too, but Xu Lang was a moment earlier than her. Yang Lusi relied purely on her keen hearing, whereas Xu Lang was different."

"Look at the position of the snake blood, and you should understand. There wasn't much snake blood on Xu Lang's cheeks at all. He might have found it disgusting or something at the beginning and didn't do it, which is one of the reasons he was so sensitive."

"From this aspect, he was also more or less affected by some of the pollen from the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac."

Zhang Lin saying this was telling everyone that they had already reached the range affected by the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac, or perhaps once they passed the Zidu Underground River, they were already under the control of the konjac pollen even hundreds of meters back.

It was just that this stuff was still relatively faint, and not everyone would be affected accordingly.

At this moment, someone inside the Crescent Hotel raised their hand and hurriedly asked: "Mr. Zhang, then is there really the sound of wind?"

Zhang Lin curled the corners of his mouth into a strange smile and said: "Yes, of course there is, it's just that normal people cannot feel this kind of wind."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the venue, including the audience watching the live stream, subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva in front of their phone screens, simultaneously feeling a chill run down their spines.

Because Zhang Lin's words had already turned the matter into another concept. If it's a wind that normal people cannot feel, then what kind of wind is it?

Could it be an evil wind?

Some people mustered the courage to raise this question, but Zhang Lin smiled maliciously at this moment and said: "You thought correctly, it is an evil wind!"

This is where Zhang Lin's ability lies; he can not only drive their rhythm but also guess what these people are thinking at times through their reactions.

Facing such a definitive answer from Zhang Lin, some timid young girls had already started to shiver uncontrollably. This was simply too far beyond reason.

Even having seen such monsters appear with the First Archaeological Team, as well as concepts like painting golden bodies and so on, at the very least, even if a zombie reanimated, there were traces to follow. But where did this evil wind come from?

The authorities knew the severity of the situation and hurriedly passed this news to the Second Archaeological Team.

However, upon hearing this news, Xu Lang also couldn't help but shiver all over. If he hadn't known about the situation with the First Archaeological Team, including the changes in Sun Wu and Lou Wan, Xu Lang wouldn't have been so afraid right now.

But because of the Wang Canghai incident, the authorities had already reported all the situations of the First Archaeological Team and described them in great detail. At that time, Xu Lang was thinking about what kind of monster one would become to have hair emerge from a severed arm.

This Corpse Beetle Pill is simply too powerful!

Therefore, Xu Lang couldn't help but combine these two things together. The more he thought, the more afraid he became, to the point where he slumped directly onto the ground.

He subconsciously said in terror: "Team Leader Yang, will I also turn into a monster like Sun Wu of the First Archaeological Team? No! I don't want that!"

Being able to sense things that ordinary people cannot naturally has its reasons. Xu Lang was afraid that his own body had also undergone changes!

Either he would turn into a monster like Sun Wu, or he would disappear directly from the live stream camera like Lou Wan right now.

Xu Lang was unwilling to accept either outcome!

The former is a fate worse than death; even if he eventually died, he would die a miserable death, ending up in a state of having no corpse left.

And it would also mean completely losing self-awareness.

If he turned into the latter, there would be some corresponding improvement in abilities, but everyone would want to put him to death, or even turn him into that kind of experimental subject.

Thinking of this, Xu Lang curled his whole body up, which was just like a microcosm of Young Master Zhao from earlier.

Seeing this state, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but shake his head, walk over, and kick him in annoyance.

Everyone originally thought he would only do this to Young Master Zhao, but Wang Kaixuan sometimes focuses on the matter rather than the person. Right now, it was a critical moment of crisis, their path ahead was unknown, and it was absolutely not the time to think about these things!
