"Sir, what are you going to do next? When will this matter be resolved? When can I return to the underworld? If I continue to wander like this, I'm afraid I really won't be able to bear it, and I might even die."

Zhang Hao understood the pain of the woman in red. He thought for a moment, turned around and said, "Wait a minute. The most important thing now is to find the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin as soon as possible. Only by finding it and returning it to its original position can we stop all this. Otherwise, no matter how powerful I am, I will not be able to stop this disaster. It seems that finding the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin is really urgent."

When the woman in red heard Zhang Hao mention the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin, her heart suddenly moved. She fell into deep thought, recalling her experiences along the way, and she always felt as if she had seen this Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin somewhere.

Zhang Hao noticed the change in the red-dressed lady's expression and asked, "Miss, have you thought of anything? If you have any clues, feel free to tell me."

The woman in red tried hard to recall, and finally thought of something, with a hint of excitement on her face. She looked up at Zhang Hao and said slowly: "Sir, I think I have seen the Zhenjiang dragon coffin you mentioned. I know its whereabouts, and I have also seen the car."

Zhang Hao and Fatty Wang were delighted when they heard this. "Tell me, where is it now? Where did you see it?" Zhang Hao asked anxiously.

The woman in red thought for a moment and said, "While I was looking for you, I accidentally found a car. I thought the car was a little strange, so I took a closer look. The car was parked at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain, but what surprised me was that the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin you mentioned was not on the car. I don't know where it went. I was still wondering, why is there nothing on the car?"

After hearing what the woman in red said, Zhang Hao's mind was filled with thoughts and he kept pacing on the spot.

"Under Qingfeng Mountain... How could there be nothing in the car? Where did the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin go? Where did Zhou Dawei send the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin? This Zhou Dawei is so cunning. I knew long ago that he would not send the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin back to the county. It seems that my guess was right."

Fatty Wang listened quietly and asked anxiously, "Brother Zhang Hao, what should we do now? What does Zhou Dawei want to do? Where did he take the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin? It seems that it will not be so easy for us to find it. If we had known this, we should have set off earlier and followed him all the way to see what tricks he wanted to play. I really didn't expect that Zhou Dawei would be so insidious."

Fatty Wang’s complaints actually reflect everyone’s thoughts.

Now the whereabouts of the Zhenjiang dragon coffin is unknown. Although the woman in red provided some clues, they seem to be lost again.

For a moment, everyone was at a loss.

Zhang Hao felt that the situation was not good, and Zhou Dawei's actions must have a reason. He had previously suspected that Zhou Dawei was controlled by someone and would send the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin to a designated location.

Now it seems that it may be near Qingfeng Mountain. In any case, we have to go and take a look first.

After Zhang Hao made up his mind, he looked at everyone with a serious face and said, "No, we must set off immediately. No matter whether there is the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain, we must go and take a look!"

At this time, the woman in red asked cautiously: "Sir, can you take me with you? I really have nowhere to go now, so I can only follow you temporarily. I hope you won't refuse me, okay?"

Zhang Hao heard the request of the woman in red and knew that what she said was true. He said without hesitation: "Okay, then, you come with us."

The woman in red looked grateful and quickly followed Zhang Hao and the others. The group headed all the way to the foot of Qingfeng Mountain. With the woman in red leading the way, the journey was much smoother.

Soon, they arrived at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain.

The woman in red looked around and said, "Sir, this is it. In front is where I saw the car. Let's go over and take a look."

"I hope the car is still parked there, we have to hurry!" Zhang Hao prayed secretly in his heart, with a hint of urgency in his eyes.

"Don't worry too much. After all, it won't be that long, so there shouldn't be any major changes." The woman in red comforted him softly, and Zhang Hao nodded slightly in agreement.

He looked around at everyone and said in a serious tone, "Everyone should be alert. We have arrived at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain."

"No matter what the outcome of the next operation is, you must be cautious and not be careless." Zhang Hao reminded again, his eyes full of seriousness, "When searching, you must be careful and not miss any details. Do you understand?"

Everyone nodded to show that they understood, and under the leadership of Zhang Hao, they moved forward slowly.

Soon, the familiar Jiefang truck appeared in Zhang Hao's sight. It was parked alone at the foot of the mountain, but there was nothing inside the car.

At the same time, Chen Wenjin also recognized the car, and her memory was instantly pulled back to the scene in the guesthouse - Zhou Dawei directed four big men to lift the Zhenjiang dragon coffin onto the car.

The outline of the car left a deep impression on her mind, and she could recognize it at a glance no matter where she went.

"Zhang Hao, look! That's the car!" Chen Wenjin pointed nervously ahead, her voice trembling. "That's the car Zhou Dawei used to transport the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin. I'm sure of it."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao immediately shouted, "Quick! Everyone go over and have a look. Search carefully to see if you can find any clues!"

The archaeological team members and Fatty Wang and others quickly moved towards the truck. Zhang Hao, Chen Wenjin and the woman in red followed closely behind, carefully observing everything around them.

Chen Wenjin could no longer suppress her inner anxiety and was the first to rush to the front of the car, only to find that there was no one inside.

Out of curiosity, she gently opened the car door.

"Ah——" a scream broke the silence at the scene. Chen Wenjin looked at the bodies of four big men lying in the car in horror. They had already lost their life and their bodies were stiff. It was obvious that they had been dead for a long time.

Zhang Hao and Fatty Wang rushed over after hearing the noise. Seeing the scene in front of them, Zhang Hao frowned and quickly protected Chen Wenjin behind him. "What's wrong? What happened?" he asked anxiously.

Seeing Chen Wenjin's pale face, Zhang Hao knew that she must be frightened by the scene in front of her. He turned his head to look inside the car, and a surge of anger surged in his heart. But he quickly restrained his emotions and said softly to Chen Wenjin: "Don't look at it, it's too bloody here, it's not suitable for you. Go look somewhere else to see if you can find other clues. I'll take care of the rest." After that, he gently pushed Chen Wenjin and motioned her to leave.

At the same time, Zhang Hao also realized the seriousness of the matter. He turned to the members of the archaeological team and said, "Go and report to the patrol team and ask them to come and deal with this matter as soon as possible. Everyone must be careful and put safety first."

After arranging everything, Zhang Hao took Fatty Wang and the woman in red to the mountain. They guessed that Zhou Dawei might have taken the Zhenjiang dragon coffin up the mountain, and this clue could not be missed.

After going up the mountain, Zhang Hao immediately took out the compass he carried with him and began to explore carefully. Fatty Wang and the woman in red followed closely behind him with serious expressions. They knew that now was not the time to be careless.

Zhang Hao used the principles of yin and yang positioning and searched for clues using a compass.

Finally, in front of a cave halfway up the mountain, the compass stopped turning and pointed inside the cave.

Zhang Hao glanced at Fatty Wang and the woman in red, and the three of them approached the cave quietly. When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, they heard the sound of conversation from inside.

Zhang Hao made a silent gesture, signaling the two to be careful. He wanted to know who was inside and what they were talking about. Led by Zhang Hao, the three quietly sneaked into the cave.

Zhang Hao secretly peeked in and saw Zhou Dawei. But besides him, there was a black shadow. Zhou Dawei sat on the ground, panting, pale, looking at the black shadow with a sad face, as if praying for something.

In order to hear more clearly, Zhang Hao pressed close to the cave entrance. He heard Zhou Dawei crying, "I beg you... I have completed the task you assigned to me. Please tell me when my daughter can come back to me. She is everything to me!"

The black shadow made a sinister and terrifying voice: "It is not difficult to bring your daughter back to life, but not now."

Zhou Dawei asked angrily, "Why? Didn't you promise me? I have already done what you wanted. Why are you doing this to me?"

The black shadow said coldly: "Don't worry. If you want your daughter to come back to you, you still have one thing to do. As long as you do this, your daughter can come back."

Zhou Dawei was instantly furious after hearing this, and he trembled all over as he questioned, "You lied! You actually lied to me! You are obviously teasing me and bullying me! You even said that you would definitely bring my daughter back if I completed the mission. You are going too far!"

Zhou Dawei was exhausted, but he was extremely dissatisfied with the black shadow's actions. He was almost crazy in order to bring his daughter back to life.

The black shadow let out a sinister laugh that filled the entire cave, making people shudder. Zhou Dawei asked loudly and vented his sadness and dissatisfaction as if he had gone mad.

After the laughter, the black shadow said proudly: "This is your current situation. You have no choice at all. If you don't agree, don't even think about your daughter coming back to you. If you still want your daughter to come back, just do as I say. Think about it carefully! I have done my best for you. I won't give you too much time or extra opportunities. There are so many people who want to do these things. I can still let others complete the task without you."

The black shadow's behavior was very arrogant, and he didn't take Zhou Dawei seriously at all. Now that Zhou Dawei needed the black shadow's help, he became even more unscrupulous. Zhang Hao felt mixed emotions when he saw this, but he felt relieved when he thought that all this was Zhou Dawei's own fault.

If he hadn't been greedy and used by the black shadow to do these stupid things, he wouldn't have ended up like this. Now it's too late to regret, and he can only endure the deception and manipulation of the black shadow. He really has no words to say.

After hearing the black shadow's threat, Zhou Dawei roared hysterically: "Why are you so dishonest? We clearly agreed on something before, but you went back on your word! Now you are blaming me, do you think you are right? Do you think it's fun to play around like this? Don't even think about asking me to help you again! I have made a huge mistake, do you know that? If this matter is discovered, I will really be left with nothing! I will never be in cahoots with you again, so just give up this evil idea!"

Zhou Dawei denounced the black shadow. He was filled with hatred and despair at the fact that the black shadow did not keep his word.

He had made countless efforts for his daughter, but at this moment, he could not buy back her freedom. The anger in his heart was indescribable.

After listening to Zhou Dawei's words, the black shadow sneered, his voice chilling: "I don't care...you should think about it carefully." After that, he turned around and was about to leave, ignoring Zhou Dawei's predicament.

Zhou Dawei was in a dilemma at the moment, like he was riding a tiger and couldn't get off.

"Wait... don't go!" He shouted again unwillingly, his voice revealing helplessness and determination.

Despite his dissatisfaction, he had no choice but to continue on this path of no return. He was stuck in the quagmire and could not extricate himself.

He didn't want to go along with the black shadow, but what could he do now that things had come to this? The black shadow stopped and a sinister smile appeared on his face: "How come... you figured it out so quickly?"

There was sarcasm in his words. "Didn't you just swear that you would never side with me? Tell me...what else do you want? I won't give you a second chance. You'd better think it over carefully."

Zhou Dawei sneered helplessly, as if all his strength had been drained out of him, and he sat dejectedly on the ground.

"Tell me... what's the next mission?" His voice was low and hoarse. "As long as you keep your word this time and return my daughter to me, I'm willing to do anything for you."

Hearing this, the black shadow laughed triumphantly: "Very good... Wouldn't it have been better if it had been like this earlier? There is no need for us to be enemies. We share common interests." He paused, and then said, "Next target, I want you to return to the guesthouse and kill everyone there, leaving no one alive. Then snatch the notebook from Chen Wenjin's hand. As long as you complete this task, your daughter will return to you."

Zhou Dawei was shocked when he heard this. He stared at the black shadow with wide eyes in disbelief and refused without hesitation: "No... I can't do this. I can't kill them. I can't complete this mission. I won't go back to the guesthouse."

The black shadow was instantly furious when Zhou Dawei refused. Zhang Hao only felt a flash before his eyes, and the black shadow's movements were as fast as lightning.

When Zhang Hao could see clearly again, Zhou Dawei had been picked up by the black shadow and was hanging in the air. His face was flushed red and he was struggling in pain.

Gradually, his struggles became weaker and weaker, and he seemed to be about to lose consciousness. (End of this chapter)
