"Let's go! Teacher, let's leave this smoky and polluted place right now!"
Hao Aiguo got up to walk out of the booth, but found Professor Chen still sitting there, looking hesitant.
"teacher……"
Before he could continue his persuasion, Shirley Yang suddenly spoke up, "I believe everything Mr. Li Yang just said!"
"Although my maternal grandfather did not pass on the skills of the Mountain Moving lineage to me, that does not mean that I am not a successor of the Mountain Moving lineage!"
"After all, there are still many secrets about my grandfather that I don't know!"
Hao Aiguo became anxious, "Miss Yang, how can you speak on behalf of an outsider? We're all on the same side!"
Shirley Yang suddenly straightened up, took off her coat, revealing a tank top underneath.
Then he turned to one side.
"Everyone can take a look at my right shoulder!"
All eyes turned to Shirley Yang's right shoulder, and gasps of surprise rose and fell.
"Oh my god, red-eye marks?"
"Is it a curse from the Ghost Cave Clan?"
"Miss Yang is actually a descendant of the Zagrama clan!"
"Li Yang didn't lie to us!"
Shirley Yang has a clear red eye pattern on her right shoulder, as if it were branded on with a hot iron!
She calmly put on her clothes and said, "Mr. Li Yang is right. My grandfather did indeed pass away due to blood clotting. After examination, all the blood in his body had turned yellow!"
Shirley Yang's personal testimony completely proves that everything Li Yang just said is true!
About the Snake God!
About the Ghost Cave!
About the Demon Kingdom!
There's also the Zagrama clan and the Muchen Pearl!
Hao Aiguo stood there blankly, somewhat at a loss. He was the kind of bookworm who was proud of the knowledge he possessed, but also ashamed of his mistakes.
At this moment, he suddenly came up to Li Yang and bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle.
"I'm so sorry, Comrade Li Yang. I misunderstood you. I sincerely apologize for misunderstanding you time and time again. I'm sorry!"
Professor Chen, who was standing nearby, also helped out his student.
"Comrade Li, Aiguo doesn't actually have bad intentions. He's just a bit stubborn and inflexible. He's right or wrong. He didn't do it on purpose. Please forgive him."
Li Yang waved his hand, completely unconcerned.
"It's a small matter, I don't take it to heart."
Then he grinned.
"However, if you're going to explore the Jingjue Ancient City this time, be prepared to be cursed by the Ghost Cave!"
For a while.
Apart from Shirley Yang, the other four members of the Ghost Blows Out the Light group all looked rather grim.
Especially Professor Chen.
Is his long-awaited archaeological expedition to the ancient city of Jingjue going to be canceled?
What I thought was just a normal archaeological expedition turned out to be life-threatening!
Based on the information Li Yang just shared, Professor Chen has deduced that anyone who goes to the Jingjue Ancient City will be cursed by the Ghost Cave, and no one can escape it!
The Zagrama clan, or perhaps the lineage of the Mountain-Moving Taoists, has been unable to escape this predicament for over a thousand years.
This shows just how terrifying and troublesome the Ghost Cave Curse is!
No wonder that fortune teller advised me to think twice before acting!
Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang both looked grim, yet also relieved to have survived a close call.
Fortunately, they came to Hu Yifei today to ask for the sword talisman!
Fortunately, Hu Yifei has such a good neighbor as Li Yang!
Fortunately, Li Yang is a big shot who knows the history of the Jingjue Ancient City well!
Fatty Wang muttered, "Old Hu, we can't do this job. We wanted to earn some US dollars, but this job is deadly!"
Hu Ba nodded slightly.
He's an expert at tomb raiding, but he knows absolutely nothing about curses!
And this despicable curse is hereditary!
If this is cursed by the Ghost Cave, it will also affect future generations. It's not worth it to earn just a few hundred thousand US dollars!
You mustn't accept this assignment!
Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang were also having second thoughts.
As expected of a science and engineering man, Lu Zhanbo discovered a blind spot while everyone was immersed in Li Yang's story.
"Li Yang, since the Zagrama clan went to the mainland, who exactly built the Jingjue Ancient City?"
Professor Chen realized after being reminded that Li Yang had just talked about the mysterious snake god and the ghost cave, but hadn't yet formally recounted the history of the Jingjue Ancient City!
After all that fuss, we haven't even gotten to the main point yet!
Li Yang waved his hand.
"The origin of the Jingjue Ancient City is simply that the Demon Kingdom in the Kunlun Mountains of the Western Regions was destroyed, and some of the remnants of the Demon Kingdom returned to the Zaglama Mountains and established the Jingjue Ancient City."
"The true ruler of the Demon Kingdom is the Ghost Mother, while the controller of the Jingjue Ancient City is the Queen; both are women."
"Furthermore, the Queen of Jingjue's eyes can also connect to the imaginary space, allowing her to banish people there. She can also summon black snakes, making her abilities identical to those of the Ghost Mother!"
"As far as I know, the last Queen of Jingjue was poisoned to death by Prince Gumo."
"Prince Gu Mo encountered a fortune teller who instructed him to apply a slow-acting poison to the golden lamb offered as tribute to the Queen of Jingjue, thus killing her!"
"The tomb of the Queen of Jingjue was built above the Ghost Cave, with the Kunlun Divine Tree as the coffin and the Corpse Fragrance Devil's Flower to guard the tomb!"
"This Corpse Fragrance Amorphophallus flower is no ordinary evil thing. This thing is brightly colored and has an extremely strong hallucinogenic effect. Even wearing a gas mask cannot avoid it, and it will cause those who are affected to kill each other!"
[Happiness percentage +1%]
[Happiness percentage +1%]
……
As soon as Li Yang finished speaking, he received five points of happiness, when Hu Yifei suddenly let out a surprised scream.
"What? The ancient city of Jingjue has the Kunlun Divine Tree?"
[Happiness percentage +1%]
Li Yang was stunned for a moment.
This percentage of happiness was actually provided by Hu Yifei!
This means the plot is about to take a major turn!

Chapter Eleven: A Treasure Worth Over 300 Billion!
"Li Yang, are you sure the Ancient City of Jingjue has the Kunlun Divine Tree?"
Hu Yifei looked at Li Yang expectantly.
Li Yang nodded. "The Queen of Jingjue used a Kunlun sacred tree as her coffin. That section of the tree stump was more than two meters in diameter, and even after more than a thousand years, the green leaves on the branches are still there!"
Hu Yifei became even more excited.
"Then there's no doubt about it, it really is the Kunlun Divine Tree!"
Li Yang asked curiously, "What's so great about that? As far as I know, the Kunlun Divine Tree is just a top-grade coffin. Even without soil, water, and sunlight, it won't wither. Although it stops growing, it retains its original appearance. If a corpse is stored in the Kunlun Divine Tree, it can remain undecayed for ten thousand years."
"It is said that Qin Shi Huang once sent people to the Western Regions to find the divine wood of Kunlun to make a coffin, but they could not find it!"
Hu Yifei's pretty face blossomed into a bright smile.
"So there are things you don't know? I thought you knew everything!"
"The Queen of Jingjue using Kunlun sacred wood for her coffin is an absolute waste!"
"The Kunlun Divine Tree also has another name... Jianmu. Legend has it that the Jianmu connects heaven and earth, reaching the highest heavens and the deepest hells, making it an excellent material for refining weapons!"
"The density of Jianmu wood is higher than that of gold, and its value is ten times that of gold!"
As soon as Hu Yifei finished speaking, Fatty Wang screamed in alarm.
"How much? Ten times the value of gold?"
"Old Hu, what's the price of gold per gram now?"
Hu Bayi took out his phone and searched, "Five hundred!"
"Get rich!"
Fatty Wang exclaimed excitedly, "Old Hu, we have to pull this off!"
Hu Bayi rolled his eyes. "Fatty, are you risking your life for money? Aren't you afraid of being cursed by the Ghost Cave?"
"That curse of the Ghost Cave will not only torment you, but will also haunt your descendants for lifetimes. You are a sinner in your Wang family. What good is all the money you make!"
Fatty Wang sighed with a wry smile, "That's true. I may have a worthless life, but my descendants can't be implicated by me."
aside.
The cast of Love Apartment are also discussing how much the Kunlun Sacred Tree is actually worth!
Lu Zhanbo, a master's graduate from MIT, naturally became a human computer.
"Sister, what is the density of the Kunlun Divine Tree?"
"Slightly more expensive than gold!"
"Gold has a density of 19.32 grams per cubic centimeter, so let's round the density of Kunlun Divine Wood to 20 grams per cubic centimeter... Li Yang, how tall is that section of Kunlun Divine Wood belonging to the Queen of Jingjue?"
"About one meter!"
"You just said that the section of Kunlun Sacred Tree has a diameter of more than two meters. Let's say it's two meters. According to the formula for the volume of a cylinder, V=πr²h, we can calculate that the volume of the Kunlun Sacred Tree is 3.14 cubic meters, which is 314 million cubic centimeters!"
Lu Zhanbo calculated rapidly.
"Gold is 500 yuan per gram, while Kunlun Sacred Wood is ten times more expensive, which is 5,000 yuan per gram!"
"That section of Kunlun sacred wood weighs 314 million cubic centimeters × 20 grams, which is 6280 million grams!"
"Therefore, the price of Kunlun Sacred Wood is 6280 million grams × 5000 = 3140 billion!"
For a moment, the entire booth area fell silent.
Everyone was stunned by the value of the Kunlun Sacred Tree!
Like a dazed beauty, Chen Meijia asked blankly, "How much is 3140 billion?"
Lu Ziqiao said irritably, "Calculate it yourself!"
He was also shocked by the number; how many descendants would he have to donate to earn that much money!
Even if you worked yourself to death, you wouldn't earn even one ten-thousandth of that money!
"Fine, then!"
Chen Meijia started counting on her fingers.
"One times seven equals seven, two times seven equals forty-eight, March 8th is Women's Day, May 1st is Labor Day, June 1st is Children's Day..."
She tried to figure it out for a long time but couldn't, and she even confused herself.
Lin Wanyu reminded him, "This amount of money is nearly 40 billion US dollars, which would place you in the top 30 of the Forbes list of the world's richest people!"
