Apart from the main hall, there were also a few tombs on the first floor.
What was buried inside was nothing more than the concubine of the Demon Nation's monarch, and it was the kind with a low status.
Jiang Chen wasn't interested in the funerary objects inside.
To avoid wasting time, he said to Wang Kaixuan,""Fatty, I'll give you a mission. You'll definitely like it!”
"Hmm?"
Fatty Wang was slightly stunned. He never thought that he would be entrusted with such a heavy responsibility one day.
More importantly, she even said that she liked it…
"Chief Jiang, your business is Fatty's business. I promise to complete the mission!" he said happily.”
"Go to every level of the tomb in the tower.”
"Light a candle in the southeast corner. If the candle goes out when the coffin is opened, write down the tomb.”
"That's all."
Jiang Chen repeated his request.
Although he was not interested in the funerary objects, if the things in the coffin became spirits…
Then he still didn't plan to let it go.
After all, it was better to absorb as much of the attributes and energy as possible.
Fatty Wang said reluctantly,"Chief Jiang…" This isn't very good, right?"
How could Jiang Chen not know what he was afraid of?
He was just worried that he would encounter danger and lose his life.
"The mechanisms of the nine-story demon tower should have been cracked by the Zhang family. You just have to do as I say.”
At this point, Jiang Chen thought of his personality and reminded him again,"Of course, if you continue after the candle is extinguished, you can only blame yourself.”
"In addition, whatever you touch, it belongs to you.”
Wang Kaixuan, who was initially unwilling, immediately perked up when he heard this.
He patted his chest and said confidently,"Chief Jiang, don't worry!" Leave this matter to me!"
As he spoke, he pulled Hu Bayi's backpack over.
He took out a bunch of candles and stuffed them into his bag.
"When did you…" Hu Ba was shocked.
Wang Kaixuan smiled." I was just worried about using it. This time, it's definitely imported!"”
Facing everyone's strange gazes, Hu Bayi could only smile awkwardly.
Jiang Chen led them up the stairs.
Along the way, just like the first floor, there were corpses all over the ground.
At the same time, there were many arrows, axes, and other sharp weapons left behind after triggering the mechanism.
Jiang Chen discovered that some of the mechanisms seemed to have been triggered on purpose to deal with the human-headed beasts.
This made him sigh.
How intense would the battle back then be?
The higher they went, the fewer corpses they found, and the more they found the bones of the monsters.
As a result, he reached the eighth level.
Other than the various traces left behind by the intense battle, there was surprisingly no skeleton.
At this moment, Hu Bayi suddenly said,""This is too strange! We've just reached the eighth floor, how can there be no stairs to the ninth floor?”
Ah Ning also noticed this problem.
According to her experience in the tomb, there was most likely a mechanism controlling the entrance.
"I'll go and see if there are any traps nearby," she said.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
She went to the surrounding walls and began to feel around.
"Chief Jiang, what do you think?”
"The entrance is up there." Jiang Chen pointed to the top of his head.”
Hearing this, the three of them looked up.
However, other than darkness, there was no entrance at all.
"Chief Jiang, there's nothing here."
Hu Bayi asked doubtfully.
Jiang Chen picked up a piece of junk from the ground and threw it up.
Clang!
The junk hit the top of the tunnel and quickly fell back down.
"The sound is wrong!"
"From the sound, it's about ten meters high, but we only look like we're two to three meters high.”
"What's going on?"
Xue Li Yang was the first to discover the problem.
"That's right, it's indeed ten meters high.”
"But the surrounding walls are made of stone that can absorb light, so you can only see two to three meters.”
Jiang Chen explained.
With his Heavenly Eye, he was not affected by these things and could see everything clearly.
In the center of the top, there was a circular gap with a diameter of three meters.
That was the entrance.
Since the entrance was so secretive, there must be an extremely important secret on the top floor.
"Little Yang, did you bring the Sky-Fleeing Rope?" Jiang Chen asked.”
"Yes."
Flying Tiger Claw, Vajra Umbrella, and Sky-Fleeing Rope were the three items that Mountain Moving Daoist relied on.
Xue Li Yang happened to have brought along one of them, the Sky Jumping Rope.
Jiang Chen took it.
Then, he found a spot and threw it upwards.
Pa!
The hook at the end of the rope was hooked somewhere.
He tugged hard. After confirming that the rope was tight, he used the force to fly up.
His movements were like flowing water, and he looked extremely relaxed.
"Ding! The sign-in was successful! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill, Corpse Language.”
" New mission: Head to Jingjue Ancient City and complete the registration at the entrance of the Ghost Cave.”
Jiang Chen went up and signed in.
Although there were no energy and attribute rewards this time, the skill Corpse Language was something he had always wanted.
Therefore, he was extremely satisfied with this reward.
Then, he said to the people below,"All of you can come up."”
When Hu Ba saw this scene, he could not help but sigh,"Chief Jiang's movement technique…It's too terrifying."
Although he had trained in the army before, he was still a soldier.
However, it would probably take a lot of effort to climb up.
However…
While he was sighing, Xue Li Yang also climbed up agilely. Ah Ning was also prepared.
Before going up.
Ah Ning seemed to recall something and asked,""Old Hu, you should be able to do it, right?"
Hu Bayi was slightly startled.
Then, he patted his chest confidently and said,""Of course! I practiced this a lot in the army! You can go up first. Don't wait for me.”
Then…
Five minutes after Ah Ning went up, Hu Bayi finally climbed up the rope.
The space on the top floor was not as big as the space below.
There was an exquisite stone coffin at the innermost part of the top floor.
In front of the coffin.
There was a 'person' in tattered clothes kneeling beside the coffin.
He was still holding something in his hand. It seemed that he was using all his strength to press that thing on the coffin, not letting the thing in the coffin come out.
"Chief Jiang, could this person be from the Zhang family as well?" Hu Bayi asked curiously.”
"Yes."
Jiang Chen nodded and said with a serious expression," Zhang Qiling, the patriarch of the Zhang family."
