"Without the Sky Map, how should we proceed with our next move?"

As soon as Chen Wenjin finished speaking, she urged everyone: "Hurry up, everyone, take action and look around!" Her voice was firm and powerful, trying to boost everyone's morale.

"We must find the celestial map, otherwise we will be in big trouble!" Chen Wenjin emphasized again. Upon hearing this, the members of the archaeological team immediately began a careful search.

However, they searched every corner of the surrounding area, but still could not find any trace of the Heaven Map. This made everyone feel particularly heavy-hearted and disappointed.

At this moment, Fatty Wang suddenly had an idea and came up with an idea: "Brother Zhang Hao, think carefully, is it possible that the celestial map was left on the body of a member of the archaeological team?" There was some urgency in his tone, hoping to find clues as soon as possible.

"Think of a solution quickly. It's not a good idea to keep searching blindly like this. It also wastes a lot of time." Fatty Wang's words reminded Zhang Hao, and he hurriedly began to check, but unfortunately, he still couldn't find any trace of the Tiantu.

Just when everyone was extremely anxious, Zhang Qilin suddenly stood up, his eyes flashing with a thoughtful light. "I figured it out, it must be that mummy who stole the Heaven Map when we were not paying attention!" He said with some certainty.

"Don't look anymore, it's useless!" Zhang Qilin continued, "We have to think of other ways quickly, otherwise it will be too late!" His words were like a heavy hammer, waking up Zhang Hao who was confused.

Zhang Hao was slightly stunned, and then fell into deep thought. He thought to himself: "What should I do? How can I make the Heaven Map reappear?" His expression was solemn, and his mind began to work at high speed.

After a moment, Zhang Hao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he seemed to have thought of a solution. "Oh, I have an idea!" He shouted excitedly, "We can gather everyone together and use everyone's memory of the celestial map to redraw a new one!"

Although this task sounds difficult, it seems to be their only solution at the moment. Zhang Hao looked at everyone and continued, "What do you think of this method? If it doesn't work, let's give it a try! We can't just keep waiting like this!"

Zhang Hao's proposal was well received by everyone, and everyone began to recall their impressions of the celestial map and presented the fragments in their memories one by one. Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin were responsible for collecting this information and slowly redrawing a new celestial map.

This process was extremely difficult, and everyone was sweating and exhausted. Zhang Hao looked at everyone's exhausted appearance, and his heart was filled with gratitude. He said with concern: "Okay, thank you for your help, go back and have a good rest and recuperate!"

"This time the consumption of everyone is really too great, but I also see everyone's selfless dedication." Zhang Hao's words are full of respect for everyone.

Afterwards, everyone returned to their own rooms and prepared to have a good rest.

When everyone left Zhang Hao's room, he was the only one left sitting there alone.

He was not sleepy at all and was thinking quietly about Tiantu's matters.

Time passed by unknowingly, until midnight, Zhang Hao didn't even know when he fell asleep.

At this moment in the dead of night, an old ghost in red sneaked into Zhang Qilin's room.

Everyone was immersed in sleep and unaware of anything.

Zhang Qilin was also resting with his eyes closed, unaware of the approaching danger.

The old ghost in red quietly approached Zhang Qilin, his eyes fixed on the jade pendant of the Night Wandering God on his body.

"Great, I finally found it!" The old ghost in red was secretly delighted in his heart, with a smug smile on his face.

Just as it reached out to snatch the jade pendant, Zhang Qilin suddenly felt an invasion of eerie energy.

He suddenly opened his eyes and woke up all of a sudden.

Zhang Qilin tightly grasped the jade pendant and looked at the old ghost in red in front of him with cold eyes.

"What kind of monster are you? Hurry up and leave!" He shouted angrily, "You actually came here to be so presumptuous and even wanted to take the jade pendant. You really overestimate your own abilities!"

As he spoke, Zhang Qilin angrily questioned the old ghost in red and started a fierce battle with it. He held the jade pendant in one hand and tightly grasped the black gold ancient knife in the other. A powerful aura enveloped his whole body, making people shudder.

However, the old ghost in red fought desperately in order to seize the jade pendant of the Night Wandering God and was unwilling to give up.

For a while, Zhang Qilin and the old ghost in red were fighting to a standstill.

Zhang Hao, who had just fallen asleep, was awakened by the sudden noise. He frowned and wondered in his heart: "What is this sound?"

Zhang Hao sat up and listened carefully to the source of the sound. He was nervous: "Oh no, it seems to be Zhang Qilin's room! Is there anything wrong? I have to go over and take a look!"

As he said that, Zhang Hao quickly put on his clothes and rushed out. When he approached Zhang Qilin's room, he found something wrong.

Zhang Hao rushed in without hesitation, only to see Zhang Qilin and the old ghost in red fighting fiercely.

"I'm here to help you!" Zhang Hao shouted and quickly joined the battle.

While resisting the attack of the old ghost in red, he asked Zhang Qilin: "What's going on?"

Zhang Qilin said angrily: "This old ghost in red wanted to steal my Night Wandering God jade pendant, but I discovered and stopped him in time!" His words were full of disgust and anger towards the old ghost in red.

"Stealing the jade pendant... is so abominable! We must not let it succeed!" Zhang Hao also shouted angrily.

However, when the old ghost in red saw Zhang Hao joining the battle, he fought even harder.

Suddenly, the old ghost in red turned around, and a red figure rushed straight towards Zhang Qilin.

Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin were shocked. When they reacted, the Night Wandering God jade pendant in Zhang Qilin's hand had disappeared.

"Damn it!" Zhang Qilin cursed angrily. Zhang Hao had not expected that the old ghost in red was so powerful that he and Zhang Qilin could not stop it from taking the jade pendant. Zhang Qilin saw the jade pendant being taken away and wanted to chase it out, but found that the old ghost in red had disappeared without a trace.

He stood in the night with a murderous look on his face. Zhang Hao also hurriedly chased him out, but only saw Zhang Qilin standing there alone.

"Menyouping, what's going on?" Zhang Hao asked anxiously, "Do you know why this old ghost in red wanted to steal the jade pendant? How come we didn't see it approaching the inn?"

Zhang Qilin shook his head helplessly, looking fiercely at the direction where the old ghost in red disappeared. "I don't know, but I think it has been following us for a long time." He said in a deep voice, "It has been waiting for this opportunity, and finally waited until we separated, and it took the opportunity to seize the jade pendant."

"Not long after I lay down, I felt a surge of evil energy coming and found that the old ghost in red was close to the jade pendant. I hurried to stop him, but it was too late. While we were fighting, you arrived." Zhang Qilin continued, "I didn't expect the old ghost in red to be so powerful. Neither of us could stop it."

Zhang Hao listened carefully to Zhang Qilin's narration and felt that the appearance of the old ghost in red was really strange. Everything happened so suddenly. It seemed that it was really as Zhang Qilin said, all of this was premeditated by the old ghost in red.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be such a coincidence that the old ghost in red appeared just after they returned to the inn. Zhang Hao pondered for a while, looked at Zhang Qilin hesitantly and asked: "What should we do now? The old ghost in red has escaped! We don't know where it went, where should we look for its trace?"

"It's really not easy. I think it's hidden too deeply." Zhang Hao continued. Zhang Qilin thought about what Zhang Hao said and said coldly, "Don't worry, wait until everyone wakes up before solving it. Everyone has been tired for a long time, so don't disturb them when they just lie down."

"Besides, he has already escaped, so there is no point in chasing him." Zhang Qilin added. Zhang Hao nodded and agreed with Zhang Qilin's statement: "You are right, then let's do as you say."

So, Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin decided to wait until everyone woke up before discussing how to solve this matter. In the night, the two of them were not sleepy at all. Zhang Qilin surprisingly talked a lot with Zhang Hao. The two talked about everything, which surprised Zhang Hao. This was the first time he talked so much with Zhang Qilin.

It was not until the daybreak that they returned to their rooms. When everyone woke up, they gathered in Zhang Hao's room again. As soon as Hao Xie entered the room, he noticed the expressions of Zhang Qilin and Zhang Hao. Seeing their serious expressions, he knew that something must have happened.

He walked quickly to Zhang Qilin and Zhang Hao and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Did something happen? Why do you two look so worried?" Hao Xie made a bold guess, wanting to know what had happened that made Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin so serious.

Zhang Hao sighed, looked at everyone and explained: "Yes, something unexpected did happen late last night. After you fell asleep, the old ghost in red suddenly appeared and snatched the jade pendant from the Night Wandering God. When Zhang Qilin and I wanted to chase him, he had already disappeared."

"If we want to get the jade pendant back now, we must find the old ghost in red as soon as possible, otherwise there will be no other way." Zhang Hao's words were full of helplessness and anxiety. After listening to Zhang Hao's narration, Hao Xie showed a look of shock on his face.

He said in disbelief: "What? The jade pendant was taken away? How could this happen?" Hao Xie's words were full of anger and confusion towards the old ghost in red. Everyone was immersed in shock and anger, not knowing what to do. However, they all knew that they had to find the old ghost in red as soon as possible and take back the crucial jade pendant.

Zhang Hao already knew that it would not be difficult for the old ghost in red to take back the jade pendant from Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin. This was enough to show that the old ghost in red was not to be underestimated. Hao Xie pondered for a moment and asked immediately.

"Zhang Hao, what do you think we should do now?"

"How about we use our abilities to summon the ghosts around us and let them track down the whereabouts of the old ghost in red?"

"I believe that this will definitely be much faster than us doing it ourselves. What do you think?"

Zhang Hao glanced at Zhang Qilin, and they both nodded in agreement to Hao Xie's proposal.

Not long after, Zhang Hao and his team used their ability to summon ghosts and issued instructions to these ghosts, asking them to find the whereabouts of the old ghost in red as soon as possible and come back to report.

Unexpectedly, Hao Xie's method was very effective. After receiving the order from Zhang Hao and his team, the ghosts quickly started the search. Not long after, a ghost came back to report to Zhang Hao that it had actually seen the old ghost in red yesterday.

Zhang Hao immediately ordered the ghost to take them to find the old ghost in red. The ghost readily agreed to Zhang Hao's request and led everyone to the destination.

Zhang Hao and his friends were full of anticipation, wondering where the old ghost in red would hide after snatching the jade pendant. They hoped to get the jade pendant back from the old ghost in red this time.

Led by the ghost, Zhang Hao and his party followed it to a small temple. This made Zhang Hao feel something was wrong, as he always felt that the old ghost in red should not appear here.

Zhang Hao looked at the ghost beside him with a puzzled look, and asked doubtfully: "Are you lying to us? Why is the old ghost in red here?"

"Is what you said true? Have you ever seen the old ghost in red?"

"Why do I feel like you're not telling the truth? This is not a joke!"

When the female ghost heard Zhang Hao questioning her, she seemed a little aggrieved: "Sir, I am telling the truth. I did not lie to you."

"I really saw the old ghost in red here yesterday, and it seemed injured!"

"However, I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. Today, when I heard that you were looking for the old ghost in red, I told you. Although I don't know where it is now, it really appeared here."

The female ghost hurriedly explained to Zhang Hao, not wanting everyone to misunderstand her.

Zhang Hao had no choice. Although he had some doubts in his heart, since he had already come here, he could only search carefully to see if he could find any trace of the old ghost in red.

Fatty Wang and Hao Xie searched to the side, and soon Hao Xie discovered something unusual.

"Zhang Hao, come here quickly! Something's going on here!"

Zhang Hao led everyone to rush over, only to see some dried blood on the ground. Zhang Hao slowly squatted down, carefully examined it, and could not help but frowned.

"It is indeed the old ghost in red... It seems that it really appeared here. The female ghost did not lie."

"Okay, everyone, hurry up and look for the old ghost in red!"

After that, Zhang Hao walked up to the female ghost and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, I didn't understand the situation and misunderstood your good intentions."

"I'm here to apologize to you, I'm really sorry!" (End of this chapter)
