Things went as smoothly as expected, but Chen Ziyan didn't relax because of this. He quickly walked to Huahu's side, tied up the struggling molting turtle, and then quickly headed towards Chen Wenjin.

From the stagger that Huahu was knocked into just now, he has already seen that the strength of this molting turtle is definitely not small. If the other one locked by the nine-claw hook hits the ground, Chen Wenjin's strength is afraid that he will be able to control it. Can't live.

Facts proved that Chen Ziyan's prediction was correct. The molting turtle subconsciously brought Chen Wenjin up after landing on all fours. If Chen Ziyan hadn't arrived in time, he probably would have been dragged away by this small movement.

However, when the molting turtle was in Chen Ziyan's hands, it was difficult to toss about it any longer, so he stomped it on the ground, and then copied the routine just now, and also presented a bundled meal.

No matter how strong the molting turtle's brute force is, it can't be used under such circumstances.

But Chen Ziyan was not happy about it, because the appearance of the second molting turtle meant that the plot had gone awry again.

After handing the tied molting tortoise to Huahu, he came to the place where the second molting tortoise came out just now.

The blood-bait red flowers densely covered here have been overturned, exposing a gap about half a meter wide, and it seems that these two molting turtles should have come out of it.

After taking a photo with a flashlight, I found that the crack did not go straight down, but a turning point appeared at a distance of less than one meter.

"This seems to lead to the bottom of that crystal boulder?" Chen Wenjin also walked over and said after looking at the situation inside the crack.

"Well, it seems that the problem is under the crystal boulder." Chen Ziyan nodded.

In fact, even without this crack, Chen Ziyan would still place his suspicion on the crystal boulder.

"Master Chen, should we go back now?" Chen Wenjin looked at the silent Huahu beside him, and asked tentatively.

She wanted to explore the secrets here. After all, archaeologists have strong curiosity, and Chen Wenjin is no exception.

But she also understands who has the right to speak for the team, that's why she asked this question.

If Chen Ziyan was equally curious, then she would satisfy her own curiosity by the way, but if Chen Ziyan's desire to explore was not pure, then she had no choice but to put away her petty thoughts.

Chen Ziyan naturally understood what she meant, and nodded after hesitating for a while: "Let's see what's going on first."

The reason for him to do this is not only to figure out how there is one more molting turtle, but also to find a way to continue walking.

After seeing the sudden ice crevasse, Chen Ziyan felt that they might have a choice in their next path.

After making a decision, Chen Ziyan sent a signal to the people above to follow them down, since he thought it would be better to do some research here, it would be better to brainstorm.

When the others came down, Chen Ziyan was not idle either. He walked around the crystal boulder a few times, trying to find the turtle shell that was pressed under it first.

But after walking around for several laps, he was surprised to find nothing.

After Chen Ziyan recalled it carefully, he was sure that the tortoise shell should be pressed under the crystal boulder.

How can I not find it now?

With such doubts in mind, he turned his attention to the two molting turtles held by the flower fox. Could it be possible that this thing really needs to be used to detoxify the blood bait?
While not impossible, the chances are much smaller and the risks will increase accordingly.

Fortunately, such doubts did not last long. When Chen Ziyan looked at the crystal boulder again, he finally made a breakthrough discovery.

Chen Ziyan discovered that at a certain edge of the crystal boulder, what was exposed was not the kind of corpse that was regarded as waste, but a dark red bone.

The moment he saw the bony object, he knew he had found what he was looking for.

It's really true that planting seedlings intentionally fails, but planting willows and willows unintentionally will make a shade!
When Hu Bayi and the others came down, they saw Chen Ziyan cleaning the edge of the crystal boulder.

Wang Kaixuan asked: "Master Chen, what are you doing? Could it be that you want to take this thing back?"

What he was referring to was of course the crystal boulder that was piled up.

But don't look at the obvious traces of stacking, but under the tempering of the years, the bricks made of glacier crystal stones have long been fused together. If you want to take it away, you have to remove the entire crystal boulder.

But according to the importance of this thing, it is impossible to get it out of the ground.

Even if it can be lifted up, the ice layer along the way is not allowed to bear weight.

"I want to see what's under here." Chen Ziyan replied casually, and then greeted: "Hurry up and help."

This work is not tiring, but it is a bit cumbersome, so Chen Ziyan directly arrested the strong man.

After they removed the obstacles next to the crystal boulder, they finally saw clearly what was pressed underneath.

What Chen Ziyan thought was right, there was indeed a tortoise shell under it, but he was mistaken about the size of the tortoise shell.

The turtle shell below is only a little smaller than the crystal boulder above, so it looks like a deformed base with black stripes on a red background.

"Is this the shell of an old turtle?" Hu Ba looked at the shell and asked in confusion.

Judging from the shape of the shell, it is not as symmetrical as the traditional turtle genus, so he suspected that it was left by a certain kind of soft-shelled turtle.

As for why it was so big, he felt that he didn't even ask this question, only a shell remained, and who could explain it clearly.

"This is something that will save your lives!" Chen Ziyan smiled.

Then without waiting for other people to ask questions, he said directly: "In the legendary 'Phoenix Linlong Turtle', among the four kinds of spirit beasts, only the turtle is the most common, but that is not an ordinary turtle, but a dark red shell. A thousand-year-old tortoise."

Speaking of this, he pointed to the turtle shell below: "This is the shell of a thousand-year-old turtle!"

"Master Chen, can this tortoise shell really work?" Wang Kaixuan didn't believe it.

Chen Ziyan didn't explain to him, and directly cut off some of the exposed turtle shell with a shovel, mashed it up, and applied it to the place where Hu Bayi and Huo Ling had bleeding bait.

The two of them didn't feel it at first, but after only a few seconds, they felt a bone-penetrating coolness coming from the place where the medicine was applied, and then they saw that the medicine fell off together with the granulation sprouts that grew out. The granulated areas look like nothing happened.

"This……"

This immediate effect let alone other people, even Chen Ziyan, who knew the inside story, was stunned for a while.

The effect is a bit too good, right?

After seeing this scene, the black glasses couldn't help moving their eyes to the two molting turtles, and asked, "Master Chen, since even this turtle shell is a treasure, what about these two little things?"

As the saying goes, people don't look good, and this beast sometimes has the same reasoning. He doesn't think the creatures living here are useless.

The black glasses remember clearly, but Chen Ziyan said that this little thing can feed on the blood bait fruit here, it must have eaten a restrained detoxification thing, and now the answer is in front of it, the so-called detoxification thing is the thousand Carry the shell left by the old turtle.

From this point of view, these two little things are probably full of treasures!
"These two should be molting turtles..." Chen Ziyan hesitated and said.

In fact, when he saw two molting turtles appearing, Chen Ziyan's first reaction was to doubt whether the molting turtles were really molting turtles.

But after seeing such a large turtle shell, he suddenly had another new idea, maybe this is the molting turtle, but not the earliest one.

"Multing turtle?" Hu Ba was puzzled, he had never heard of this.

"This is a very rare thing, or a kind of ability. Those who can shed their shells must be old turtles, that is, they have become fine." Chen Ziyan explained.

This is what he suddenly wanted to understand. There seemed to be no necessary connection between the molting turtle and the shell of this thousand-year-old turtle.

"Such a stupid spirit?" Wang Kaixuan glanced at the two molting turtles, and couldn't help asking questions again.

He didn't want to be picky, but after watching Chen Ziyan's arrest, it was really hard to believe that these two things could be spirits.

"Not all the flowers in the greenhouse are like this." Chen Ziyan didn't care about this, and simply explained.

To put it bluntly, these two molting turtles have lost their sense of crisis, that is, they will jump twice in a life-and-death crisis. Combined with the terrain here, they are the most typical greenhouse flowers.

"That's reasonable." Wang Kaixuan agreed with this statement after seeing the semi-sealed situation here.

Then he asked curiously: "Then Master Chen, are these bastard shells and molting turtles worth money?"

"It's valuable. The thousand-year-old tortoise shell is said to be able to cure hundreds of poisons. It is a rare treasure in the world. Such a whole tortoise shell can no longer be described as a sky-high price. It is definitely a priceless treasure!"

"As for the molting turtle, this thing is also extremely rare, and it belongs to a type that cannot be measured by value."

After pondering for a while, Chen Ziyan gave such an answer.

"Priceless treasure?!" Wang Kaixuan suddenly regained his energy when he heard this, and immediately moved to Huahu's side enthusiastically: "Brother Huahu has worked hard, and I think you are also quite tired, why don't I take it. "

This tortoise shell can be discussed later, but this treasure that has already been caught, he has to get addicted to it first.

Now Wang Kaixuan doesn't think this molting turtle is ugly at all!

Chen Ziyan nodded slightly to Huahu, signaling it to hand over the molting turtle to Wang Kaixuan.

Since he is willing to take it, let him take it, just to save a man who is more convenient to use.

"This crystal boulder... why does it give me such a strange feeling?" At this moment, Xue Liyang's voice sounded in Chen Ziyan's ear.

Chen Ziyan turned his head and glanced at her, and found that she was staring at the crystal boulder in front of her, as if she had discovered something.

"Is it similar to the golden pagoda in the ice cave?" Chen Ziyan gave a hint.

"That's right! It's that golden pagoda!" Shirley Yang suddenly realized that although the shapes and materials of the two are completely different, they give off a very similar feeling.

"Is this also a town seal?" Shirley Yang's reaction was quick, and she immediately thought of this.

Chen Ziyan was also not sure: "I'm not sure, but I feel like it might be."

He felt that the crystal boulder in front of him should be, but there was no conclusive evidence, so he could only give such an ambiguous answer.

"The above records seem to be a kind of ritual similar to scorpion." After reading for a while, Shirley Yang said.

She has seen similar runes in ancient books, so she can roughly translate them.

Xue Liyang told Chen Ziyan that this is an extremely cruel sacrificial ceremony, using the body of the slain person as a tool to conceive an invisible energy, which will gather in the core to achieve the purpose of suppressing the enemy.

"It seems that this is indeed a town, but more primitive and cruel." Chen Ziyan said.

"This is a product of the Demon Kingdom period." Shirley Yang thought for a while and said, "Xian Wang's qi technique originated in the snowy region, and now it can be seen that the earliest source of the qi technique was the Demon Kingdom, but at that time It's not perfect yet."

She actually had this idea in that ice cave, but the corpses in those ice walls were not good as evidence, and the only golden mummy in the snow mountain that could be used for verification was directly burned to ashes, so she didn't mention it. over this.

"Master Chen, there is a layer of ice underneath."

Before Chen Ziyan could continue exploring, Hu Bayi's voice came again not far away.

After detoxification, Hu Bayi didn't stay idle, he also started to study, and when he cleared a piece in other places, he also made his own discovery.

Chen Ziyan frowned when he walked over, because the so-called ice layer was so thin that he could clearly see the aquatic creatures below through the ice layer.

But here comes the question, how can such a thin layer of ice withstand such a heavy crystal boulder?
"Clean up other places as well," Chen Ziyan said.

He wanted to know if there was ice only here, or if there was ice beneath them.

Not long after, Chen Ziyan got the answer.

Not only is there an ice layer under the 'land' where they are, but even the surrounding water pool is also under an ice layer.

Strictly speaking, where they are now is on a thin but solid layer of ice.

However, he also found the next day he was looking for.

At the edge of the ice layer, there is a gap, which can also be said to be a channel, connecting the top and bottom of the ice layer. This is why there is continuous underground river water, but this place has not been completely submerged.

"Master Chen, what shall we do next, do you want to dive down and have a look?" Hu Bayi asked.

Because they were afraid of encountering an underground river, they deliberately brought a batch of simple diving equipment, and now they are fully capable of going under the ice to have a look.

Chen Ziyan was a little hesitant when he heard the words. He knew that if he followed the underground river, he would be able to reach the area where the Shadow Evil Luohai City was located, but he was not sure if walking here counted as following the underground river.

The situation below is obviously unknown, and it is a secret that was not involved in the original plot.

"Forget it, let's talk about it when we get back." After thinking for a moment, Chen Ziyan shook his head and rejected the proposal.
