291 How did he find such an awesome thing?

A deadly silence fell between the four of them, for two minutes no one spoke and finally the silence was broken by Shao Li Jun who rubbed his arms as goosebumps and cold shivers broke all over his skin and he somewhat reproachfully said,  " Don't say that, this place is scary enough as it is…if you say such things then I will die of fright here and now."

Among the three boys, Shao Li Jun was the timidest of all. The reason he followed his friends to this place was because of the experience in the past, they have been going to haunted places one after another and nothing happened to them, he thought that this tomb was just like the other places but now that he was standing inside this tomb with a bunch of scary Terracotta figures, he couldn't help but shiver in terror.

Till now he was pretending to look cool in front of Shi Caihong and the other girls, and now they were gone...Shao Li Jun couldn't bother himself by pretending to be brave-hearted anymore.

Even Tao Guotin and Kong Kun who believed that they had hearts of iron shivered at Mei Xing's words, it was as if someone slipped chilled ice cubes inside their shirts.  Goosebumps broke all over their entire body and the small hair on the back of their neck stood up.

Though neither of them wanted to believe that something was wrong with this place, they couldn't help but reconsider what happened till now. They found a tomb that no one found before, their smartphones despite being fully charged and bought recently ran out of battery one after another and the only person whose phone was still fully functioning was none other than Li Yiqian who was the only one excited to delve deeper in this tomb.

Putting it like that, it did seem like it was some sort of bait to lure them all inside the tomb.

" No...I think it's just a coincidence … I mean we have been live-streaming till now, maybe our smartphones were overworked… you know how much apps like these take out battery, right?" Kong Kun somehow managed to think of a reason for the weird happenings that were happening around them and tried to somehow liven the mood up.

Tao Guotin hurriedly nodded his head and said, " That's right, the smartphones most probably just got heated up and Yiqian wasn't using his phone to live stream that's why his smartphone is still working."

" Right, Right…that must be the case," Little fatty immediately agreed with his good brothers, what he didn't say was that his phone was fully charged and he didn't use it to live stream either, so how come to his phone was dead too?

But he didn't want to scare his friends and resisted the urge to say anything, now he only hoped that nothing would happen and they all will be able to return without any mishaps.

" Let's go, if we stay here any longer we might miss Yiqian and the others," said Tao Guotin with a heavy swallow, though he was pretending to be fine inwardly he hoped that Mei Xing wouldn't say anything, he was scared already, he didn't need another thrilling sensation anymore. " I can't see them anymore, it would be better to catch up with them soon."

Kong Kun too was worried that Mei Xing would say something scary again, so he too hurriedly nodded and chimed after Tao Guotin. " That's right, we should just follow after the four of them or else we might lose them." More importantly, the sooner they are done, the sooner they will get out of this place the better.

The four of them soon caught up with Li Yiqian and the others, the four of them arrived at the point where the Terracotta Army was facing and looked at the two big statues that were standing face to face at the end. The two figures were so tall and majestic that Tao Guotin and Kong Kun momentarily forgot to be scared even little fatty looked at the two figures with his neck craned as if he was trying to see the faces of the figures, too bad that they were so tall that he couldn't see anything.

"What a pity, if our phones were running we would have recorded this impressive sight," muttered Tao Guotin in a somewhat regretful voice.

Kong Kun and little fatty nodded on his side.

But Mei Xing's attention was on the foot of the two figures instead of their faces, seeing that Shi Caihong, Fan Ehuang and Li Na were just standing there while poking around at the bottom of the base, a bad feeling rose in her heart and Mei Xing hurriedly called out to the three of them. " Hey you guys, where is Yiqian?"

Shi Caihong was a bit upset that Li Yiqian made two discoveries in just one day, she turned around and looked at Mei Xing. Seeing that pale and delicate face with Tao Guotin's arms wrapped around her waist, flared Shi Caihong's anger even further and she looked at Mei Xing with her arms crossed as she replied with a snappy voice, " You guys, you are finally here, look Yiqian made two discoveries one after another!" She pointed to the base of the statue on her left and rolled her eyes at them. " This is what you all get for being too slow! Just keep holding on to Xing Xing and you all will miss all the fun."

After saying that she started poking the statues hoping that another secret chamber would be opened.

" How did Li Yiqian find such an awesome thing?" asked Little fatty in an awed voice. " What kind of kingly luck is this? If this goes on then he will be accepted by the archaeological department."

Tao Guotin and Kong Kun were also shocked, this was really as if the God of luck was favouring Li Yiqian! He found the entrance of the lost tomb and now he found this hidden chamber as well.
