"What is he doing?"

Zhang Zhenshan heard the commotion here and walked over with doubts on his face.

But at this time, Ye Zhiqiang couldn't figure out what Zhao Qi was doing, but he just felt that the tone of his movements was full of weirdness.

But the strange thing is that during this process, Zhao Qi always seemed very serious.

He kept observing the cigarette smoke floating from the side. The cigarette smoke did not dissipate in the forest. Instead, it vaguely formed a white line and continued to go deeper into the forest.

Soon, other investigators came over curiously and looked at Zhao Qi who was walking in front with confusion on their faces.

Ye Zhiqiang also specially adjusted the camera worn on his chest to ensure that this scene could be recorded. Otherwise, it would be difficult for people to believe it based on his dictation alone.

Naturally, Ye Zhiqiang and others did not know that the method Zhao Qi was using now was the three-fragrance path-finding method that has been passed down in folklore since ancient times.

This ancient method originated from witchcraft, and later became popular among some Jianghu sects.

Now this ancient method has naturally been lost. Even Zhao Qi knew it through his folklore proficiency through the list of gods.

This was Zhao Qi's first attempt, so he was inevitably a little nervous, and he was not sure whether it would be effective in the end.

But generally speaking, pathfinding with three incense can clearly point out the direction in which Yin Qi travels.

At present, Zhao Qi has basically determined that the disappearance was caused by spirits. Therefore, by finding the direction in which the Yin Qi traveled, he can roughly deduce where the spirits walked at that time.

In this way, a strange scene happened soon.

A dark wind blew around Zhao Qi, and this dark wind caused the yellow paper in the sky to start spinning erratically around Zhao Qi.

After a few seconds, the paper money fell to the ground one after another, but the strange thing was that when the paper money fell, it was not around Zhao Qi, but seemed to be driven by a force, gradually paving a road of paper money in front of Zhao Qi. .

Ye Zhiqiang and others stood behind Zhao Qi, so they could not see the shock in Zhao Qi's eyes.

It was also the first time for Zhao Qi to use this ancient folk method.

After all, when resisting demons in previous lives, force usually came first. At that time, folk custom did not exist because it had been lost long ago and no one knew how to use it.

But obviously, both the paper money and the wafting aroma pointed to the road leading to the forest due west. This seemed to be evidence that the spirit that caused the disappearance of the scientific research team had been here before.

Zhao Qi's eyes lit up quickly, and then he looked back at the people behind him who were stunned:

"What are you doing standing still? Come with me!"

As he spoke, Zhao Qi took the lead in stepping on the paper money and walked forward.

Ye Zhiqiang, Zhang Zhenshan and others were all confused.

The scene in front of me is normal. The paper money is falling to the ground in a seemingly irregular manner, but it always lands in the west direction.

But it is neither normal nor normal. What happened to the wind swirling around Zhao Qi just now?

And normally, since the wind is rotating, the paper money should fall around Zhao Qi irregularly, right?

Although several people were confused at this time, they quickly followed him because they were becoming more and more curious about what Zhao Qi was going to do.

Looking at the dazzling paper money at his feet, countless speculations emerged in Ye Zhiqiang's mind.

But none of these speculations seem to be able to explain the strange appearance that happened before them.

But Zhao Qi seemed very calm, always walking at the front, gradually going deeper into the forest.

"what is that!"

At this moment, an investigator noticed something falling on the ground not far away in the forest.

He quickly ran over, picked up the things on the ground, and ran back quickly.

"Captain, it's an identity card that belongs to the missing scientific research team!"

Hearing this, Ye Zhiqiang quickly took the ID card and looked at it. It clearly read the words "Scientific Research Inspection Team, Professor Fu Qiang".

This made Zhang Zhenshan next to him quickly frown. They had sent many people to search the mountain on a large scale before, but they didn't find the identity tag.

And on the road that Zhao Qi was taking them on, he could easily find the information left behind by the missing scientific research team.

This can at least confirm that the missing scientific research team must have appeared on this road, which means that Zhao Qi's method is feasible.

But no matter how you think about it, there doesn't seem to be any logical connection.

Could it be possible that he really relied on the floating cigarettes and falling paper money to determine the direction?

The biggest difference between metaphysics and science is that all components of science are based on the most solid theoretical logic.

Metaphysics has no logic at all, but it is strange that it works.

Just when everyone was wondering about this, Zhao Qi, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped. He once again grabbed a handful of paper money and threw it into the air, but this time it fell on the ground irregularly, without forming a guide. direction.

This made Zhao Qi's expression become serious. During the few seconds he was in a daze, Ye Zhiqiang and others caught up with him.

"The clues are broken. The Yin Qi has disappeared at this point, and the spirit has hidden its whereabouts..."

Zhao Qi's words reached Ye Zhiqiang's ears, and he could no longer bear the doubts in his heart.

"Mr. Zhao, what were you doing just now? We accidentally found this ID tag on the way here. Is it a coincidence or necessity?"

Zhao Qi looked back at the identity tag held by Ye Zhiqiang, and then shook his head:

“From a folk perspective, there are no coincidences in this world, and all seemingly coincidental situations have inevitable directions.

I suggest you investigate around here. You should be able to find more clues. People from the original scientific research team must have passed through this place.

I now seriously suspect that these scientists disappeared because they were deceived by spirits.

Therefore, there would be no signs of chaos at the scene, because they left the camp automatically and entered the forest automatically. "

Ye Zhiqiang's eyes were full of surprise, but he did not rush to refute Zhao Qi's point of view. Instead, he immediately waved his hand and asked the investigators behind him to start investigating in the dark with trace detection equipment.

As an agent, Ye Zhiqiang can detect something wrong in these things.

But in order for him to believe what Zhao Qi said, there must be enough evidence to confirm it.

Soon, Ye Zhiqiang joined the investigation, but Zhang Zhenshan did not move and always stood by Zhao Qi's side.

As if he had finally waited for the right time to speak, Zhang Zhenshan turned his head and looked at Zhao Qi next to him:

"You seem to be very proficient in folklore knowledge."

These words made Zhao Qidu feel a little surprised.

"General Zhang, I don't think you are disgusted by what you mean?"

Zhang Zhenshan's expression was somewhat intriguing as he said:

“I always believe that existence must be reasonable.

A lot of folklore knowledge left since ancient times cannot be groundless, right..."
