Chapter 268 Treasure Map [2]

Seeing this beautiful and dreamy girl again, Zhang Wufeng stood there for a long time without saying a word.

Yang Wubing, who was standing beside him, was surprised to see him stunned. Warriors shouldn't be afraid of things like "ghosts" in legends, right? These things don't exist, so what's there to be afraid of? Could it be that he was too young, and his words really scared him?

Yang Wubing thought for a moment, then walked to Zhang Wufeng and said, "Doctor Zhang, this mountain range is actually high, and the main peak at 6,000 to 7,000 meters is covered with snow all year round. However, the top of the mountain is closer to the sun, and the weather changes significantly, so the rock layer is more weathered, which makes the accumulated water on the hillside seep into the area below. It is normal for the cave to have a bit of cold air, so don't be afraid."

"Oh, I'm not afraid, but based on my perception as a warrior, I feel that this cave is indeed very dangerous." Zhang Wufeng came back to his senses and subconsciously turned the last page of the black book. At this time, he discovered that the last page of this book was actually the first page of this book.

The book is clearly read from right to left.

On the first page, there were four very special letters-like words. When Zhang Wufeng saw those words, he suddenly understood that it stood for "Castle in the Sky".

Zhang Wufeng was shocked, and then he subconsciously recovered the crystal power and returned all the things inside to their original owners.

When his crystal power entered his own crystal space again, Zhang Wufeng suddenly sensed from the crystal ring that this was a 'Book of Shadows'.

As for why it was a 'Shadow Book' and what exactly the 'Shadow Book' was, Zhang Wufeng didn't know.

There is very little information transmitted from the crystal ring. The first is the "Shadow Book", the second is the "Shadow Castle", and the third is the "Castle in the Sky".

These three pieces of information made Zhang Wufeng fall into deep thought.

“It’s dangerous, yes, but this is our job, and we’ve already spent countless efforts on it. Giving up halfway will only make my students lose their will to resist and give up when times get tough.

As a mentor, what I need to do is to lead by example, even if it is dangerous, I must take the lead and persevere. " Yang Wubing heard this and said seriously.

"But this will put everyone in danger. As a teacher, I think I should learn to adapt." Zhang Wufeng said after thinking for a while.

"Doctor Zhang, many people have said what you said to me, and I understand it in my heart, but I think persistence is the most important thing for people.

I have been an associate professor at Yunguo University for many years. If I knew how to adapt and spend tens of thousands of yuan every year to buy the right to publish papers in more than ten magazines, I would have been a professor long ago. However, as a professor, whether I am a professor or an associate professor, I have to pay those famous magazines to buy pages for my papers. I can't do it. These magazines now cater to the psychology of many professors who like to be famous and need to be evaluated for professional titles, and use magazines as a tool to make money. I despise it very much!

I posted all my papers on my blog for free, and even many of them became the source of plagiarism by other professors, but it doesn't matter. Publishing papers is not for the honor, but just to let the relevant students learn useful knowledge, and my goal is achieved. "Yang Wubing said seriously.

Zhang Wufeng felt touched when he heard this, so he stopped talking.

He knew that people of this older generation were very stubborn in their views on certain aspects.

Therefore, he stopped trying to persuade them. All he could do was to try his best to keep them safe.

"Brother Zhang, can you really feel the danger?" Li Lu asked at this time.

"Brother Zhang is not the kind of alarmist person. If he says it is, then it must be true." Yang Encai interrupted.

"This is just a warrior's intuition. You all should be careful." Zhang Wufeng said, and the crystal force had already enveloped the group of five people within a radius of twelve meters.

"Well, Brother Zhang, what you said is quite scary." Li Lu said in a somewhat doubtful tone.

"What's there to be afraid of? Don't you always watch horror movies with me?" Han Lisha said carelessly. At this time, she seemed a little abnormal.

"You are sick. Why are you talking about horror movies at this time?" Zhao Dongsong shouted angrily, and the four of them fell silent immediately.

"Okay, stop arguing. If Professor Yang walks in front, I will walk in the back. It will be better for you guys to stay in the middle." Zhang Wufeng said with a smile, easing the tense atmosphere.

"Doctor Zhang is right. I'll be careful walking in front, and you guys should also be careful behind. Generally, the front and back are more dangerous. In a place like this, the back is more dangerous than the front." Yang Wubing nodded and explained. Zhang Wufeng heard this and agreed with Yang Wubing's words.

In a team, there is a person leading the way in front, which is of course dangerous. But the last person in the team must be on guard against sudden danger from behind. Moreover, in a dark environment, people always have a peculiar psychological feeling that someone is following them. Most people cannot bear this feeling. Only people with better psychological quality can withstand it.

Especially in this gradually darkening cave, this feeling is even stronger.

For Zhang Wufeng, this is actually just a strong psychological suggestion, because dark emotions always make people fall into a state of hypoxia, and this state is subconsciously disturbed by these gloomy dark auras, and some horror scenes or scenes that are not normally seen will appear, thus causing a terrifying result of scaring oneself.

At this moment, Zhang Wufeng's crystal power enveloped a distance of twelve meters, which was a huge spherical space with a radius of twelve meters. Everything in this space was extremely clear. Coupled with Zhang Wufeng's eagle eyes and the special tactile sensitivity to the airflow that gradually emerged - the ability from the stink bug, he was actually somewhat confident about this place.

Surrounded by the crystal power, he naturally felt no pressure, and the several pairs of gold needles he purchased were all placed separately in the crystal space at this moment, so that they could be quickly retrieved and used in case of danger such as a poisonous snake bite.

Yang Wubing walked in front with a lamp in his hand. He was very careful and attentive. He fixed the powerful mining lamp that could be worn on the head on his left wrist so that he could adjust the light at any time as needed.

The light shone into the distance. The cave was slightly tilted downward, so the ground of the cave did not appear damp. However, there were occasionally a few black or white-and-red poisonous snakes in the cracks of the moss on the cave wall. Although these poisonous snakes looked at people eagerly, they did not attack anyone for the time being.

After Yang Wubing's light shone on the ground ahead, it paused for a moment, then stopped. Without even turning his head, he said to everyone, "Everyone be careful. There is a dead body ahead. Don't be afraid."

"Ah, human bones..." Li Lu answered horribly, her voice trembling a little. Although she was a little scared, she was more curious.

"What's there to be afraid of about human bones?" Zhao Dongsong said disdainfully, with a hint of face-saving tone in his words.

"There's nothing to be afraid of, but what you should consider is not the human bones, but the existence of bones in front of here, which means there is danger there! Understand? Compared with you, I have a sense of superiority in IQ." Yang Encai chuckled.

"Just keep bragging, it looks good but is useless. I wasn't the first one to be scared when the wolf came." Zhao Dongsong chuckled.

These words left Yang Encai speechless. He said angrily: "You are so cruel, Zhao Dongsong. When I go back, I will definitely give you a big meal." Yang Encai said hatefully.

A few people were chatting and laughing as they arrived in front of the pile of bones.

"This bone is so white, it's a bit abnormal!" Yang Wubing's light shone on the pale dead bones. He was slightly stunned, then squatted down, looked at the skull carefully, and even took out a magnifying glass to stare at it.

Under the light, the pair of dark, empty eyes of the skull made Li Lu, Zhao Dongsong and others tremble with fear. They felt an indescribable depression in their hearts, and a strong sense of uneasiness and nausea. However, they dared not speak casually and disturb their tutor's research.

"Professor Yang, this bone is poisonous, don't touch it with your hands." Zhang Wufeng walked forward and reminded.

The interior of the cave is quite spacious, and it is not a big problem for three or four people to walk side by side, so the group of six did not keep much distance between them.

“This won’t be poisonous, right? If it is poisonous, the bones will turn black.” Yang Wubing said in a deep voice.

"Professor Yang, I'm a doctor, so I can naturally judge this. This person must have been frequently exposed to highly toxic substances such as arsenic before his death, so his body has developed a certain resistance. As for the pale bones, it's just the appearance. The inside of the bones must be black." Zhang Wufeng answered affirmatively.

"Well, what you said makes sense. It's almost the same as what I judged. I was also wondering about this. This person was a woman before her death. Her pelvis was a little big and loose, which means she must have been pregnant. She died when the child was just born.

But why did he die here? This is a bit strange.

You can see that her hands are tensed and stretched vertically, as if she is pushing something away. Her mouth is open, as if she is shouting. Her eyes should be wide open, and the expression on her face should be unwilling, angry and crazy.

Yang Wubing judged and spoke slowly.

His words not only surprised Zhang Wufeng, but also made Li Lu and others feel a little creepy and frightened.
