"The show is about to begin."
At this moment, Ying Chen, who had been watching the live stream in silence, suddenly spoke.
The three elders, originally determined not to look at Liu Bin, could no longer hold back and leaned their heads closer.
They wanted to know what kind of good show Ying Chen was referring to.
But as soon as they poked their heads over, they recoiled in an instant, like startled cats, pulling their heads away from the screen.
"What... what is that?"
"I think I saw a pair of eyes behind Liu Bin! Am I hallucinating?"
"I saw it too! Could it be a live stream effect?"
The three looked at each other.
"It's not an effect, this live streaming platform doesn't have that kind of effect," Liang Yu said with certainty.
"Then..." The three elders involuntarily gasped.
They all realized something!
Immediately after, the three leaned their heads back towards the phone screen, a mix of fear and curiosity in their eyes as they looked at Liu Bin on the screen.
Due to the "wolf is coming" scenario, Liu Bin had completely lost trust in the bullet comments.
He even sneered at the comments: "Can't you guys make it more exaggerated? Eyes? Why don't you say a hand reached out to my shoulder? Why don't you say someone secretly climbed onto my back?"
The netizens watching the live stream were stunned in front of their screens after hearing Liu Bin's words.
Did Liu Bin possess the Midas touch for misfortune?
Just as he finished saying a hand would be on his shoulder, a dry, pale hand indeed emerged in the live stream and landed on Liu Bin's shoulder!
Then, a disheveled, indistinguishable female ghost quietly climbed onto Liu Bin's back!
Liu Bin, as if carrying a child, carried the female ghost, completely unaware!
The female ghost occasionally lifted its head, its eyes shimmering with blood-red light, conspicuously visible to the camera.
"Ghost! There's really a ghost! Brother!"
"Streamer, please, turn around and look! We weren't lying to you!"
"Streamer, I apologize for deceiving you before. But I'm really not lying to you now! You're carrying a ghost!"
Seeing these bullet comments, Liu Bin finally realized something was wrong.
He was terrified, and his body turned cold.
Because the barrage of comments was so numerous and fast, it completely obscured his phone screen, preventing him from seeing what was behind him.
He wanted to close the comments but dared not.
Because the comments at least provided him with some courage; if he closed them, he would truly be alone.
"They're tricking me, they must be tricking me..."
"I can't be this unlucky..."
"God bless, Buddha bless, Heavenly Master Zhang bless..."
Liu Bin chanted silently, slowly turning his stiff neck.
The entire process was excruciatingly long, and the viewers of the live stream held their breath, afraid to speak.
Finally, Liu Bin's neck turned to one side.
"Hoo!"
Liu Bin let out a long sigh of relief.
Because all he could see was darkness; there were no eyes, hands, or female ghosts.
"Tricking me again!"
"I will never believe anything you say again!"
Liu Bin was genuinely infuriated by these netizens and spoke with a hint of anger.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
He abruptly turned his head to the other side.
Then, his soul seemed to fly out of his body, and his hair stood on end.
A bloated and ugly face suddenly appeared before him!
The face looked familiar yet strangely foreign.
A pale tongue flicked out like a snake's, and a large amount of mucus dripped down, almost touching Liu Bin's cheek!
"Ghost!"
Liu Bin screamed.
His hands, which were gripping the rope, instinctively loosened.
Then, the camera in the live stream began to descend rapidly, accompanied by various twists and turns, as if playing a high-altitude parachute jump.
Clang!
With a loud crash, the live stream screen went completely dark.
Not only could Liu Bin's situation not be seen, but his voice could also no longer be heard.
It was as if Liu Bin were dead!
Instantly, all the netizens watching the live stream were stunned.
Then the entire live stream exploded.
"It's over, the streamer is dead!"
"Damn it, seeing a ghost in a live stream is one thing, but being killed by a ghost!"
"Damn it, what is this? An archaeology professor told us to believe in science, and then he died by the hands of a vengeful spirit?"
"I won't be able to sleep tonight, I feel like there are a pair of eyes staring at me in the darkness! I want my mom!"
The bullet comments grew exponentially.
Even viewers who hadn't said a word before couldn't help but start typing.
This scene was too terrifying!
Soon, the commotion in the live stream attracted the platform administrators.
After quickly understanding the situation, the platform administrators immediately shut down the live stream.
The reason given was simple: the streamer was suspected of violating regulations and the live stream was temporarily banned.
If the platform administrators hadn't done this, it would have only increased the heat of the incident.
Because after the live stream was shut down, a large number of viewers had nowhere to discuss or vent their emotions, and could only disperse to other online communities to discuss.
This made the incident "go viral"!
It even directly surged to the trending searches!
It was clearly escalating into a major issue!
And inside the tent.
The three elders stared at Liu Bin's live stream, utterly incredulous.
"There... there really are ghosts?"
"Fortunately, we withdrew in time. Otherwise, we might have been the ones in trouble now!"
"No, we're all wearing talismans drawn by Mr. Ying! We're not afraid of those things! Why did Liu Bin suffer? Because he didn't have a talisman!"
The three spoke one after another, finally understanding what Ying Chen meant by "the show is about to begin."
And they understood why Ying Chen said "good is rewarded with good, evil is rewarded with evil" before even entering the door!
It turned out Ying Chen had already foreseen this scene!
Wasn't Liu Bin receiving his just deserts?
The three felt no sympathy for Liu Bin. If Liu Bin hadn't been greedy, none of this would have happened.
Liu Bin had brought it all upon himself.
But now there was a problem, and if this problem wasn't resolved properly, the entire archaeological work would be unable to continue!
The excavation of Zhang Daoling's tomb would also be impossible!
That is, the huge impact caused by Liu Bin's live stream, and the segments of him seeing ghosts were now spreading wildly across the internet.
They believed that by morning, when the relevant department leaders woke up, they would definitely see the video clips.
Then they would be furious and announce a halt to the excavation work.
Not only because a life was lost, but also because it involved promoting feudal superstition!
And causing negative repercussions!
The three elders had to find a way to resolve this issue as quickly as possible to ensure that the archaeological work could continue.
However, the three looked at their phones to check the current heat of the incident and then sighed deeply.
It was impossible to cover it up.
Because in a short period, this matter had rapidly become the hottest news in every online community!
Almost everyone who wasn't asleep was discussing it!
"It's over, it's all over... Liu Bin didn't do good deeds in life, and he's not doing any in death. He's also forcing us to stop our excavation work!"
Professor Li shook his head and said.
Elder Dong also looked helpless: "This popularity is even crazier than a top star's affair. Come to think of it, it's the first time someone has filmed a supernatural phenomenon and it even resulted in a death."
"Now I almost wish Liu Bin wasn't dead. At least then he could stand up and say it was all fake, all a farce."
"How about we go to the Xuan Well now? Maybe Liu Bin still has a breath left?" Wang Zizai's eyes flashed, and he suggested.
