Yu Fei thought for a while and said: "What you both said makes sense. In my opinion, since we are here, we should first investigate this ghost place and see if we can find some relevant clues."
"Brother Yu, how can we still investigate? We have already searched carefully enough just now. Could it be that we still have to dig three feet into the ground to find it?" the old ghost complained.
Ding Laosan, who was standing behind Lao Guitou, swung his leg and kicked him on the butt. The pain caused Lao Guitou to scream. He turned around and was about to curse. When he saw it was Ding Laosan, he immediately stopped. Made a sound.
Ding Laosan scolded: "You bastard, why are you talking so much nonsense? Even if you dig the ground, I still have to dig out those bastards."
Yu Fei hurriedly said: "Third Master, you misunderstood. I didn't mean to ask everyone to find the entrance to the underground passage again. It's just that we were all focused on finding the entrance to the underground passage just now. Maybe we overlooked something."
Ding Laosan nodded thoughtfully: "Brother Yu is right." He looked up at the earthen stairs leading to the upper floor: "Then let's go up there and have a look." He said hello. Old Guitou and Ding Hao called out and led them along the stairs to the upper level of the beacon tower.
The old ghost man followed behind and whispered softly: "The top has been destroyed by the wind and sand. What else is there to see? Not to mention such a big sun..."
Before he finished speaking, Ding Laosan suddenly turned around and glared at him. He was so frightened that he suppressed the words that came to his mouth. He quickly lowered his head and followed Ding Laosan upward obediently. Go.
The others followed the idea mentioned by Yu Fei and continued to investigate on the lower level of the beacon tower.
After a while, Bo Xinwen seemed to have discovered something. He turned around and shouted: "Taoist Master, Mr. Ye, come here and take a look. There seems to be a rune carved here."
When others heard this, they immediately gathered around. On an adobe brick at the root of a corner, there was a pattern composed of more than a dozen strange characters. It did look a bit like Taoist runes.
Mr. Ye put his eyes on it and looked at it for a long time, but could not see what the runes were. Kun Yuanzi looked a little serious, as if he recognized something.
Bo Xinwen saw the strange change on Kun Yuanzi's face. He asked from the side: "Taoist Master, what do you think it is?"
Kun Yuanzi replied slowly: "I'm afraid this is not a rune, but a code word. These characters seem to be Hades script. Hades script is an extremely mysterious text. It is said to come from the ghost world. Pindao has a deep understanding of Hades. I’m not very familiar with the text, so I don’t even know what this secret phrase is about.”
"Ghost Realm Mingwen..." Kun Yuanzi's words made Bo Xinwen suddenly excited.
"It seems that we have found the right place. This beacon tower must be related to the cult." Bo Xinwen said excitedly. Although he did not know the meaning of this code word, its appearance at least confirmed Bo Xinwen's He quickly took out a miniature camera and took a picture of the symbols on the adobe bricks.
Soon, everyone found a lot of adobe bricks engraved with this pattern at different locations in the corners of the wall. Moreover, the characters on several adobe bricks seemed to have been engraved not long ago. It seemed. It is very possible that the ghosts have just been here a few days ago. And they are probably the same people who stole the remains of the ancient tomb.
Everyone was in a low mood at first, but now they suddenly found some clues. Everyone immediately became energetic and began to check more carefully.
Kun Yuanzi didn't even miss the adobe bricks on the top. He flew up and hung in the air. He also inspected the adobe bricks on the top one by one.
At this time, Ding Laosan and others on the second floor seemed to have discovered something. Old Guitou rushed to the stairs and shouted to everyone: "Come up and take a look."
Everyone hurriedly ran up the stairs.
The upper level of the beacon tower is surrounded by ruined walls. Only half of the four walls are still standing. At this time, Ding Laosan was actually standing on top of the half of the ruined wall, looking into the distance.
"What did you find?" Bo Xinwen asked eagerly.
The old ghost pointed to Ding Laosan who was standing high up: "It's not us who found anything. It was Master San. He asked me to call you up. I don't know what he saw."
Bo Xinwen raised his head, blocked the dazzling sunlight with his hands, squinted his eyes and asked, "Third Master, what did you see?"
"You have to stand up and look over there." Ding Laosan pointed his hand in the direction he was looking and said.
Bo Xinwen looked at the dilapidated earth wall. He felt as if it would collapse at any time. He didn't know whether it could bear the weight of two people. He hesitated whether to climb up.
Ding Laosan saw Bo Xinwen's worry and said with a smile: "Hey, brother Bo, please wait first. I will give you my seat." As he said that, he jumped down from the earth wall.
Only then did Bo Xinwen cautiously walk up to the wall.
Standing on the top of the wall. Although it is only two or three meters higher, the field of vision suddenly feels much wider. You can even see the situation behind a few protruding small sand dunes at a glance.
As the saying goes: "If you want to see a thousand miles away, reach a higher level." I'm afraid this is the truth.
At this time, there was no wind and sand in the desert, and the visibility was extremely high. Bo Xinwen looked around. From near to far, some scattered buildings could be vaguely seen. He quickly said to Li Qiang: "Captain Li, give me a telescope." "
Li Qiang took out a monocular telescope and threw it towards Bo Xinwen.
Bo Xinwen took the telescope, picked it up and looked into the distance. Only then did he see clearly that these speckled buildings were actually similar beacon buildings.
At this moment, Ding Laosan said from below: "Brother Bo, have you seen those beacon towers?"
Bo Xinwen nodded: "I saw it. Could it be that Third Master thinks there is something wrong?"
"Don't you think it's strange?" Ding Laosan asked.
"Why do you say that?" Bo Xinwen didn't understand for a while.
Ding Laosan said: "Beacon towers are usually arranged in a linear pattern. Have you ever seen beacon towers standing everywhere in a radius of hundreds of miles?"
Hearing what Ding Laosan said, Bo Xinwen immediately understood: "Master San, you mean that these buildings may not be beacon towers..."
Ding Laosan chuckled: "I can't say whether it's a beacon tower or not. I just think the layout of these buildings is a bit strange. It seems to be a Feng Shui bureau."
When Kun Yuanzi heard this, he was shocked: "What? Let Pindao see it." As he said that, he kicked off his feet and flew up. In an instant, he flew to a height of four or five meters.
