When they were almost at the bottom, Hyuga Hoshino smiled and hit Yang Xueli from behind. Yang Xueli rolled her eyes in return, and Hyuga Hoshino glared back and rolled his eyes as well.

Yang Xueli jumped off Hinata Hoshino and looked down the cliff. It was still a world of ice and snow.

Hu Bayi and others descended along the rope and saw Hinata Hoshino and Yang Xueli walking deeper, so they followed them.

Ye Yixin told Hu Bayi through the communication equipment that a snowstorm was coming. Hu Bayi became a little anxious and trotted forward to tell Hinata Hoshino and Yang Xueli.

"It should be done soon, don't worry, Master Bayi."

Hinata Hoshino still had the mind to joke with Hu Bayi, but Hu Bayi's expression changed a little, as this was a matter of life and death.

Continuing forward, there was no light, so the people coming down turned on their flashlights to illuminate the road ahead.

Not far away, an underground river appeared.

"The water isn't deep, so you can go straight through. However, there are surprises under the water."

Hinata Hoshino simply measured the water depth with his eyes, but Hu Bayi was a little skeptical and simply measured it with his legs. Moreover, based on Hinata Hoshino's evil smile, Hu Bayi thought that this surprise might be a shock.

The water was indeed not deep, but Hu Bayi discovered that there were many white bones in the water, and he heard something under the water.

"Don't worry, Comrade Xiao Hu, Master Xing has you covered."

When you are happy, you call me Master Bayi, but now you call me Comrade Xiao Hu?

Yang Xueli had quietly crossed the underground river, and the others followed one by one, leaving Hu Bayi holding Erkang's hand. He felt that there was some ferocious beast in the river.

But think about it, Hinata Hoshino can walk directly on the mountain wall, so it is impossible for him not to notice this.

So, did Hyuga Hoshino know what was in the water? Or was he so powerful that he wasn't afraid at all?

Going further, a building emitting a faint blue light in the darkness appeared.

Several corpses appeared not far away. Yang Xueli was excited, thinking that should be her father. Professor Chen was even more excited, thinking that was the legendary Nine-story Demon Tower.

Hu Bayi felt a little cold, he recognized those lights, they were the Dapu ghost bugs, his former comrades were burned to ashes by these bugs.

Hinata Hoshino grabbed Yang Xueli and pointed at the dim lights, "That's the Dap Ghost Bug. One can burn you to ashes. If you don't believe me, you can ask Comrade Xiao Hu."

Professor Chen and Yang Xueli looked at Hu Bayi and asked him for confirmation. Hu Bayi confirmed it. Yang Xueli had heard about Hu Bayi's tragic past before, so of course she believed it.

As an intellectual, Professor Chen believed in the right path of the court, so he was very eager to observe closely.

Hinata Hoshino thought, well, it's another day for Old Chen to get himself killed. The chakra line hooked forward, and the backpack containing the notebook and the nearby gun were pulled over and thrown to Yang Xueli.

Yang Xueli's gratitude towards Hinata Hoshino grew stronger and stronger. When Wang Kaixuan heard that the building in front of them was old, he rubbed his hands and planned to fish in troubled waters.

Hu Bayi stopped him and whispered, "Fatty, you are courting death. Don't you want to live?"

Wang Kaixuan shrank his neck embarrassedly and said, "I was wrong. I will dare to do it again next time."

Chu Jian was even more suicidal. He picked up a camera and did not turn off the flash.

"Click"

A flash of light flashed, and the Dap Ghost Bug was awakened. Hinata Hoshino shook his head. Even a dog would shake its head if it saw this scene.

Hinata Hoshino's face darkened for a while. What am I doing? These insects covering the sky are so familiar.

The other members of the archaeological team ran back quickly, and Hinata Hoshino went in the opposite direction with them, walked in front of the Dap Demon Worm, and took off his clothes.

Chakra is agitated, body temperature rises, and the shoulder-length white-eyed Kirin appears for the first time.

"How dare you, a daring monster, show off your skills in front of me. You simply don't take me seriously. Nawei Qilin, Prajna Goss, and Taro's spell."

Gliding is just what it sounds like. When the wind is strong, Hyuga Hoshino can also glide in the air with the help of the wind. In short, it is completely useless. After all, as long as you stand in the wind, a pig can take off.

The water dragon, surrounded by lightning, roared towards the Dapu ghost worm.

"Crackling"

After the fire was extinguished, large swathes of Dap ghost insects were electrocuted and turned into charcoal.

The last time I killed insects was in the Qixinglu Palace. I really miss it. That was Hinata Hoshino’s lost youth.

Satipeng was about to start promoting the alien theory again, and Chu Jian finally understood what was going on. He covered Satipeng's mouth and dragged him out.

The water dragon thundered away with such force that it awakened the prehistoric salamanders in the underground river.

The prehistoric salamander surfaced, sensed food nearby, and rushed towards the archaeological team. Hu Bayi took out a dagger and threw it into the prehistoric salamander's eyes.

As soon as the prehistoric salamander closed its eyes, the dagger was directly bounced away. Hu Bayi was shocked. This kind of defense could only be broken by heavy weapons.

Yang Xueli took out a gun and fired several shots at the prehistoric salamander. "Ding ding ding," the bullets slipped away one by one and did not hurt the prehistoric salamander.

Chapter 24: Ordinary People: Eat until You're Full

Everyone was getting more and more frightened. What kind of monster was this? Even thermal weapons couldn't break through its defense.

The prehistoric salamander pounced on Yang Xueli, and its instinct told it that Yang Xueli posed a greater threat.

Yang Xueli hurriedly pulled out the Vajra Umbrella from behind her back and opened it, trying to withstand the attack of the prehistoric salamander.

Hinata Hoshino used the instant body technique and appeared in front of Yang Xueli, "Rasengan."

The azure blue ball smashed into the prehistoric salamander's jaw. Aren't you hungry? Eat, give it to me!

In ancient times, there was a sawing man of light who treated guests to an eight-point light wheel. Now, ordinary people of balls are making balls online.

The huge damage is the bond, and one generation is killed after another. This wave is the Rasengan that breaks the defense.

This time, the defense was easily broken, and the prehistoric salamander's head structure was destroyed. It fell to the ground, dead as hell. The corpse twitched a few times and was completely motionless.

Yang Xueli looked at Hinata Hoshino's back, with a different emotion flashing in her eyes.

Hinata Hoshino looked at the prehistoric salamander and found that its lower jaw was a piece of soft meat and its brain was only the size of a fist. No wonder it was taken away in one go.

Hu Bayi breathed a sigh of relief. He was ready to hold down the prehistoric salamander for everyone so that they could escape.

Professor Chen looked at Hinata Hoshino, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself. It was better for him to say nothing. He obviously did not intend to make it public. He had told other members of the archaeological team not to spread the news.

Hinata Hoshino didn't care much. After all, if he didn't want to save them, Professor Chen would be the only one left among these people.

Back on the top of the cliff, Satipeng was eager to share his great discovery with Ye Yixin, but after looking at Professor Chen, he chose to keep quiet.

No matter how good Professor Chen is, he has absolute say within the archaeological team. It would be more accurate to say that he is warning everyone rather than discussing confidentiality with others.

The archaeological team came up safe and sound, and the director of the guesthouse breathed a sigh of relief.

Seven days later, we arrived at a small town near the desert, which was the only supply point before entering the desert.

Everyone checked the team's supplies again. Yang Xueli carefully looked through the notebook in her hand. The writing on it was both detailed and vague.

Walk along the ancient Silk Road and find the Zidu Dark River. When you reach the end of the Zidu Dark River, you can see a black mountain, which is also the ancient city of Jingjue.

It seems simple, but it is difficult to find the trace of the Zidu Underground River through the thick sand without any instruments and relying only on experience.

So, they needed a guide, preferably one who had the ability to see through the thick sand and find the traces of the Zidu Dark River on a living desert map.

The living map of the desert, commonly known as Anliman, Qiaoer's mother opened the door for Qiaoer - Qiaoer was home.

There is one in the town, but according to what the director of the guesthouse said, this man is not honest. It seems that he led a group of people into the desert, but these people never came back.

"Uncle Chen, it seems that we need to meet this living map."

"Shirley, that's right. We do need a capable guide. Xiao Hu, Xiao Wu, what do you think?"

"Ms. Yang, that's right."

"Sister is right."

Yang Xueli glanced at Hinata Hoshino, who was speaking sweetly and a little strangely, and Hinata Hoshino just squinted his eyes and smiled at her.

Hinata Hoshino followed the three of them to persuade Anliman, and Professor Chen persuaded Anliman earnestly.

Hinata Hoshino's mind was full of Professor Chen: "Brother, just obey us."

Hinata Hoshino shuddered and felt a little nauseous because the smell was too strong.

Hu Bayi continued to persuade, and after some threats and inducements, Anliman agreed. As expected, everyone became a lay Buddhist who paid extra money.

Hu Bayi: There is an old saying among the flower-growing families, Wei Junjie, I believe that this money will be able to pry open your mouth.

Anliman: Why didn’t you tell me about this good news earlier?

Hinata Hoshino: Hehehehe

Yang Xueli: Why are you laughing like that?
