While Hu Bayi and his companions were exploring the river, Professor Chen and his companions were not idle either, and they made a discovery on the cave wall.

It was a large area of ​​characters engraved on the wall, all of which were ghost cave characters.

So Professor Chen called Fatty Wang over and asked him to take out the jade pendant for him to see again.

Professor Chen carefully compared the characters on the jade pendant and then looked at the characters on the wall.

Sure enough, they were similar.

This could be considered a major discovery.

Professor Chen was overjoyed.

Looking at the ghost cave characters on the wall, Professor Chen was more certain that this place must have a great connection with the ghost cave clan.

So he asked Hao Aiguo to take the archaeological team to record the information at this moment.

Shen Hao stood behind the crowd and watched everything silently.

And the two Qi-refining monks also stood quietly by and watched coldly, but there was a hint of curiosity in their eyes.

Not long after, the archaeological team had recorded all the information.

Everyone carefully waded across the river from the shallow part and headed to the other side.

It's just that they didn't notice the corpse under the water.

Shen Hao's spiritual consciousness has been paying attention to the giant salamander under the water, and found that it has already shown signs of waking up.

It was disturbed by the sound of the water and the voices when everyone crossed the river.

However, before it came out, everyone had successfully reached the other side.

However, for safety reasons, Shen Hao secretly sent out a sword energy and directly killed the newly awakened giant salamander in the underwater cave.

Without the interference of this giant salamander, this trip will be much smoother.

After getting ashore, they walked forward a short distance, the terrain rose upward, and the space became much smaller.

A cave appeared in front of them, and everyone looked inside.

Everyone was stunned when they saw it.

In the cave, there stood a nine-story tower, with a blue light flashing on it.

Under the blue light, you can see a large number of corpses hanging on each floor.

And on the ground, there are countless corpses, too many to count.

Hu Bayi reacted and immediately asked everyone to turn off the flashlight and not shine it.

This blue light is very familiar to Hu Bayi. Isn't it the light emitted by the firefly?

Professor Chen also looked at the tower flashing with blue light in shock and said: "This is the legendary nine-story demon tower!"

"Nine-story demon tower?" Everyone around looked at Professor Chen.

"Yes, this is the funeral form of the mausoleums of the kings of the ancient Demon Kingdom." Professor Chen nodded.

This is Chu Jian also said: "Professor, I saw it in a book before. There is also a nine-story demon tower in Xuewei, Qinghai."

"Yes, it's a pity that the demon tower was destroyed by the hero King Gesar when the Demon Kingdom was destroyed." Professor Chen said.

"I've never seen one as well preserved as this one."

Then the fat man interrupted and said, "So, this is an emperor's tomb! There must be a lot of antiques in it?"

Hearing the fat man's words, Shirley Yang's eyes suddenly changed.

Professor Chen continued, "Shirley, this trip is worth it. Maybe your father came here just for this nine-story monster building."

Seeing everyone chattering non-stop, Shen Hao reminded them, "Everyone, keep your voice down. It's best not to talk. Be careful not to wake up these fire beetles!"

"This nine-story monster building is the nest of fire beetles. If so many fire beetles are awakened, think about the consequences!"

Everyone shut up and dared not speak again.

At this time, Hu Bayi discovered that there was a pool of human-shaped ashes on the ground not far from the cave entrance.

He was familiar with this. Isn't it the ashes of people burned after being attacked by fire beetles?

Realizing the danger here, Hu Bayi said to Shirley Yang and Professor Chen: "Professor Chen, Miss Yang, this place is too dangerous. I suggest that we leave here immediately!"

"But Xiao Hu, don't you forget why we are here? We haven't got the notes yet." Professor Chen said.

There are so many fire beetles here, Shen Hao doesn't know if he can handle it, but it shouldn't be a big problem.

Just be careful as much as possible.

While the few people were arguing, Yang Xueli made up her mind and walked directly to the Nine-story Demon Tower.

After all, her goal was to find the Jingjue Ancient City and solve her curse problem.

If it can't be solved, it's just a matter of dying early or late.

If she can't find the Jingjue Ancient City, she will die in pain in the end, so it's better to try now. If everything goes well, she can get the notes and leave.

If it doesn't work, just die early and get rid of it.

Seeing Yang Xueli walk in desperately, Hu Bayi immediately chased after her, and the fat man followed closely.

The three of them came directly to the Nine-Story Demon Tower.

Seeing this, Shen Hao told Professor Chen and others beside him: "Don't go over there, just look around the periphery.Look, don't go too deep. Also, before taking pictures, check the flash. If you startle these fire beetles, you're done!"

"Okay, Xiao Shen, we got it, we'll be careful!" Professor Chen nodded vigorously.

Shen Hao nodded, then quickly came to the demon tower, next to Hu Bayi and the other two.

Professor Chen had soldiers and two monks protecting him, so it wasn't a big problem.

At this time, more than an hour had passed.

A snowstorm was coming, and Ye Yixin and the soldiers on the glacier were very anxious.

But the radio signal was cut off, and even the temporary camp of the garrison could not be contacted, so they could only worry.

Under the nine-story demon tower, Shen Hao met with Hu Bayi and the other two.

"Be careful, try not to talk, and go back as soon as you find the notebook." Shen Hao warned.

"Well. "The three nodded.

Shirley Yang walked directly into the demon building with a mountaineering pick.

She thought that her father must have entered the demon building and wanted to go in to look for him, but she didn't expect that her father died directly outside the demon building.

Shen Hao released his spiritual consciousness and searched among the pile of corpses downstairs.

Soon, he found the target, who was lying in a pile of corpses at the foot of the wall.

It is unknown what the cause of death was, but it is certain that he was not burned to death by fire beetles.

Otherwise, there would only be a pool of ashes left, and nothing else would be left.

And the fat man happened to be at that position, searching the corpse, trying to pick up some valuable items from it.

Taking advantage of no one's attention to take a jade pendant, and coincidentally turned over the leather bag of Shirley Yang's father.

Shen Hao walked over and said: "Fatty, you are good, you can find this!"

"Hehe, that is, I, Fatty, have always been lucky, look at what this is? "He shook the jade necklace he had taken off.

Shen Hao shook his head, took the briefcase, and took out a notebook from it. There was Walter's signature on it. He opened it and saw that it did record the route to the Jingjue Ancient City.

So he put away the notebook and briefcase and went upstairs to find Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang.
