Chapter 221 Nine-Story Demon Tower (Subscription Request)
"Nine-story Demon Tower?"
Everyone started talking at the same time, and they were very unfamiliar with the name and full of confusion. Is there any story or legend here?
They all cast doubtful eyes on Professor Chen Jiuren who spoke, hoping that he could give an explanation to relieve their curiosity.
Chen Jiuren did not delay and said directly: "Nine-story Demon Tower is the funeral form of the mausoleum of the kings of the Western Demon Kingdom in the legend."
At this time, Sa Dipeng said: "Professor, I have read in a book before that there is also a relic very similar to this Demon Tower in Xuewei, Qinghai."
After hearing this, Chen Jiuren also nodded, "Yes, that is also a Demon Tower, but it is a pity that the Demon Tower has been destroyed by the hero King Gesar."
Wang Kaixuan was delighted after hearing this and said: "That means this Demon Tower is also a big tomb, right, professor?"
Professor Chen nodded slightly and praised this Demon Tower. No one has ever seen a Demon Tower so well preserved. Today they are eye-opening.
"There must be a lot of antiques there." Wang Kaixuan said excitedly, "It's really worth coming here this time."
He didn't know that Shirley Yang glanced at him inconspicuously, as if she had some guesses in her mind.
At this time, Hao Aiguo replied to Wang Kaixuan unhappily, "More than antiques, everything here is worth studying and has great value."
Seeing that Wang Kaixuan was getting further and further away, Hu Bayi had to interrupt and said, "Okay, everyone keep your voice down and don't disturb them from sleeping."
He pointed at the demon building.
Everyone was puzzled, and he continued to explain, "Fire ladybugs!"
Everyone was familiar with these three words, but they were still very excited to see fire ladybugs for the first time, of course, except Jiang Qi.
He acted quite calmly and naturally. Under his Taoist robe, he looked like a peerless exiled immortal, which made people feel like worshiping him.
Looking carefully at the legendary nine-story demon building, there were a total of nine floors, but it was covered with dense fire ladybugs. I don't know where it came from.
However, he had heard from Hu Bayi about the strangeness and power of the fire beetle.
At this time, Hu Bayi continued: "I didn't see a single fire beetle outside just now. I thought I could avoid them this time, but I didn't expect to encounter their nest.
The blue light above is emitted from them."
Soon, everyone's attention shifted away from the Nine-story Demon Tower. There were still many traces of human ashes around, which attracted everyone.
Hu Bayi explained, "This should be the expedition team before the fireflies attacked, and Miss Yang, your father is likely to..."
He didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but Shirley Yang nodded and said casually, "I understand, don't worry about me."
Jiang Qi was surprised to cast a suspicious look at her, thinking, "When Hu Bayi said that his father was likely to be attacked, her eyes were calm, without a trace of sadness.
It seems that things are really as I guessed before.
But as long as she doesn't come to provoke the three of us, there is no need to care about her. No matter how calculating she is, she can't escape my palm."
He was sure that Shirley Yang was not much of a threat to him, so he was so confident and bold.
If one day he felt that she was a threat to him, he could control her through some means, or even kill her.
Luckily, Shirley Yang was not a fool.
Hu Bayi wanted to evacuate, after all, there were fireflies not far away.
But Professor Chen Jiuren was unwilling to do so. He said, "Comrade Xiao Hu, as archaeologists, how can we give up such a good opportunity? Besides, we haven't got what we wanted."
That Walter's notebook was not in our hands.
After making a major discovery, how could these professors be willing to leave? Even facing the fireflies on the nine-story demon tower, they couldn't extinguish their inner thoughts.
Hu Bayi looked at Jiang Que and Wang Kaixuan again, and the latter said, "Old Hu, don't look at me. I listen to you and Master Jiang."
Jiang Que saw that Hu Bayi had already looked over, so he murmured, "Old Hu, why don't you go over and take a look? Maybe there will be something special.
To be honest, I am also very interested in these fireflies. With my strength, I am afraid that they can't shake it even if they are all dispatched, so don't worry.
But you need to be careful. After all, no matter how powerful I am, I can't protect people who like to die. If someone alarms the fireflies and is killed by them, it can only be blamed on his bad luck.
In addition, Old Hu, look, Miss Yang has already gone."
As he said, he pointed to Shirley Yang not far away.
Hearing this, Hu Bayi had no choice but to look not far away, and sure enough, he saw that Shirley Yang had already carefully gone over with the pistol she picked up.
Perhaps because she heard Jiang Que and the others talking, she said, "You don't have to follow me, and don't care about me."
As if she didn't care about her own life or death.
Hu Bayi is a kind-hearted man, how could he watch her go up to the Nine-story Demon Tower and die?
So he said: "Fatty, come with me, Master Jiang, you are always ready to respond. If there is any danger, I will rely on you."
As he said this, he solemnly patted Jiang Xiao's shoulder with a solemn look on his face.
Jiang Que nodded, not taking the fire beetles too seriously. If these bugs had practiced and knew some spells, he might be a little wary, but since they were just ordinary weird bugs, there was nothing to be afraid of.
He had his true qi to protect him, so even if a bunch of fire beetles surrounded him, they couldn't hurt him.
He smiled and nodded, saying to Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan: "You two should be careful too. If the fire beetles completely erupt, I can only guarantee that you two will not be in danger."
After hearing his assurance, the two felt much more at ease.
But they still secretly raised a caution. If those fire beetles couldn't even stop Jiang Que, then everyone might be finished.
At this time, a blizzard had begun to blow outside, and bad weather was about to come.
Unknowingly, the group had arrived at the foot of the Nine-story Demon Tower. Looking at the dense fire beetles lying on the upper floor, Hu Bayi felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
Walking to Shirley Yang, he couldn't help but cautiously said: "Do you know how dangerous it is for you to do this?"
Shirley Yang said lightly: "I know."
But whether she really has something to rely on, that's unknown.
And the research team, those people have begun to study some things on the ground, including human bones and some building materials.
A few scattered fireflies were flying, scaring Hu Bayi and others not to move around casually.
Wang Kaixuan was looking for some corpses, and soon he really found some things, quietly put them in his pocket, and no one saw them.
Jiang Que couldn't help but smile secretly, "This fat man, he really knows how to pick up."
But then, he picked up a bag with a notebook in it, which should be the diary of Walter.
Shirley Yang had discovered it at some point, and immediately came to Wang Kaixuan, and took out a pistol and said: "Give me the bag, give me the bag quickly!"
While speaking, he loaded the bullet, as if he was going to shoot if he didn't agree with anything!
