Chapter 1210: The Land of Hope (13)
"I really want to die, don't take us with me!" Zhu Zhongshi, who has always been calm, actually scolded because of this.
Seeing this, Meng Zitao asked, "Can't the bones of the fire monkey move?"
Zhu Zhongshi said: "You can't move, it is said that there is a curse on it, and if you move, you will burn yourself to death." ”
"Nonsense!" Pony scoffs at this claim.
"You can not believe it, but don't affect us!" Zhu Zhongshi reprimanded.
The Pony King was a little surprised to see Zhu Zhongshi so excited, but he was immediately attracted by something in the bones on the ground.
It was a ring, the surface of the ring had been oxidized, and the material should be gold, with a circle engraved with diamond patterns, which looked very plain.
"Why don't I think this ornament is from the Peerless Kingdom?" said Ponyville, looking at the ring curiously.
After Meng Zitao looked at it, he said: "This rhombic pattern is very similar to the style of the Xia Dynasty. ”
"Xia Dynasty?"
Everyone looked at each other, unable to believe the answer.
Professor Qi looked at it carefully for a while, and a surprised expression appeared on his face: "That's right, no surprise, this ring should be from the Xia Dynasty." But how can this thing be here, and still in the monkey's body?"
Some people speculated: "Could it be that someone came to explore before, met this monkey, and was eaten by it?"
Meng Zitao said: "It is also possible that the ancestors of the Hua family came to visit at the beginning? ”
Everyone nodded in unison, otherwise there would be no way to explain.
Meng Zitao continued: "However, the ancestors of the Hua family died not long after they went out from here. ”
Hearing Meng Zitao's words, everyone invariably put their eyes on the broken bones on the ground, and couldn't help but feel a little chilled when they thought of the curse that Zhu Zhongshi said just now.
In the middle of the ring, the Pony King came back to his senses: "Come on, it's just a threat, you see I'm not alive now?"
Zhu Zhongshi sneered: "I'm going to see if you can jump to the end." ”
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Meng Zitao immediately stopped them and said, "Now that time is tight, go and find the treasure." ”
Everyone agrees with what Meng Zitao said, but the curse has not been forgotten, and it is estimated that it will appear again as soon as the wind blows.
After everyone walked for a while, a three-way intersection appeared, and Meng Zitao immediately made a decision to choose the road on the left, because he clearly felt a hot breath on the right.
There was no objection to Mencius's judgment, and the results also confirmed Mencius's judgment, the treasure was indeed in the stone room at the end of this passage.
Seeing a room full of things, everyone was shocked at first, and then they became excited and rushed in to check.
Meng Zitao looked around, and saw that there were wooden chairs, ceramics, weapons, etc., and the most were jade, including various Buddha statues carved from jade.
"Money! There's a lot of money here!" someone cried out when he opened a wooden box and saw its contents.
Everyone gathered around and found that these coins were very distinctive, round and non-porous, and the surface was engraved with various horse-shaped animal motifs. The other side seems to be a Chinese seal character, and the handwriting is unclear.
Meng Zitao said: "This is a horse coin from the Western Regions, and its minting and circulation era is about 73 A.D. after Ban surpassed the Western Regions to the end of the 3rd century A.D. At present, there are only 13 pieces in China, and more than 300 pieces are counted worldwide, most of which have been lost abroad, and the collection value is very high. ”
"Wow, so much money, isn't it sent?"
"Do you know how to collect antiques?" someone next to him glanced at the man who spoke, and said, "Do you know that rare things are expensive? How much more can such a big box of horse money be worth when it is sold?"
"Yes, these silk agates are worth a lot of money in comparison. ”
Silk agate is a kind of agate that is intertwined in the form of ribbons of various colors, and it is called silk agate because the interphase ribbons are as thin as gossamer. Some are red and white, some are blue and white, some are black and white, or wide as a belt, or thin as silk, very wonderful, and were called truncated agate in ancient times.
There is also a box of silk agate in the stone room, but each one is a fine product, and the colorful ones are good-looking.
Unlike most people who are more interested in gold and silver treasures, Zhu Zhongshi and Pony King and others are concerned about the elixir of longevity, but after rummaging for a while, they can't find the prescription.
Zhu Zhongshi was a little anxious, his expedition this time was for this prescription, and now he can't find what it is!
"No...... There is no ...... here either. Why can't I find it...... Ahem......"
Zhu Zhongshi kept rummaging, and suddenly, he coughed, and it became more and more serious.
Meng Zitao looked at it and felt that something was wrong, and walked over: "What's wrong with you?"
Zhu Zhongshi also felt that something was wrong, and said while coughing: "I don't know either, and suddenly I feel very itchy in my throat." ”
Meng Zitao asked, "Are there any other reactions?"
Zhu Zhongshi's face changed: "I feel a little cold now, and it's getting colder and colder......"
Meng Zitao suddenly noticed that there was a spot on Zhu Zhongshi's face, and when he looked closely, he found that the spot was actually red, and the color was deepening at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it looked more and more obvious.
Zhu Zhongshi shivered, only to feel that his legs and feet began to weaken, and he couldn't help but sit on the box behind him and began to gasp.
"No! I feel hot again now, and I don't have any strength in my body!Director Meng, help me quickly!" As he spoke, Zhu Zhongshi grabbed Meng Zitao's hand.
Meng Zitao took a step back: "You calm down first, Dajun, bring some antipyretics!"
"Ahem!"
However, at this time, two more people began to cough one after another. And as if it was an infectious disease, more and more people in the room began to cough, and gradually there were some adverse reactions.
"Oh no, there's poison in this room!"
Pony King covers his nose and runs outside, but when he runs outside the stone, he finds that the wounded outside the stone are coughing, and he can't help coughing.
Seeing this situation, Meng Zitao hurriedly ran outside to check the situation of the wounded, in his eyes, his own person was much more important than Zhu Zhongshi.
"Director Meng, come and save me, I don't want to die yet!" Zhu Zhongshi lay on the ground and struggled to crawl towards the door of the stone room, at this time, he also showed that he was afraid of death.
Because of the sudden change, many people's faces turned pale with fright, and everyone ran out of the stone chamber one after another, but if there was indeed a virus in the stone chamber, the spread had been completed for a long time, and it was useless to run outside.
As a result, there were more and more people coughing at the scene, and everyone's hearts were full of fear, and the atmosphere had been suppressed to the extreme.
At this time, Zhu Zhongshi shouted again: "This is not a virus, this is a curse! I know how to crack the curse, don't leave me alone, otherwise everyone will die!"
Meng Zitao checked everyone's situation and knew that the situation was not ordinary, so he went to help Zhu Zhongshi out: "Say, what is the situation, don't mention any curse, I don't believe it." ”
Zhu Zhongshi coughed and said, "You are so smart, you should have guessed that it was the bones of that fire monkey that caused the problem." ”
"Fire monkeys have viruses in their bodies?"
"I guess so. ”
"How is it treated?"
"The information I got said that it was a fire poison that needed to eat the roots of that particular plant to survive. ”
"You're talking about eating the roots of plants that live a long life?"
"Yes, that plant should be at the edge of the lava pool, you can definitely find it in the past now. ”
"Can you guarantee that it was indeed caused by the bones of the fire monkey?"
Zhu Zhongshi said weakly: "Eight or nine is not far from ten, if you don't believe me, I can't help it, but I remind you, don't look at you now, you will be like us sooner or later!"
Meng Zitao didn't think that he would get the same disease, but he was not the commander of the light pole, and the people in the team could not die again.
Zhu Zhongshi asked, "How many red spots do I have on my face now?"
"Three pieces. Meng Zitao looked at it.
"Ten red spots at the most, and I'll be dead. Zhu Zhongshi gasped and said.
Meng Zitao frowned: "It's only been a few minutes, and you have three red spots, how can I be in time?"
Zhu Zhongshi said: "The formation rate of red spots will be slower and slower, at least I can live for half an hour, but at most I will not live for an hour." Go ahead, or it'll be too late. ”
Meng Zitao called the army aside and asked, "Do you have any bad feelings?"
Dajun said: "I only feel a little itchy in my throat, but I can bear it for the time being." ”
Meng Zitao said, "I have two bottles of potion here, how about you try it?"
Dajun took the bottle and took a sip: "There is improvement, but there is still a slight itch in the throat." ”
It seems that the spiritual liquid can't cure this disease, and Meng Zitao was disappointed, so he had to retreat to the next thing: "If I really can't come back, you feed them to drink, but there is one, you must first ensure the safety of your life." ”
"Understood. ”
"I'm going to find medicine now, you pay attention to the Pony King, it's a good time, you can take extraordinary measures to wipe them all out. ”
The army nodded.
Meng Zitao set off for the magma pool and walked hundreds of meters, he only felt that it was getting hotter and hotter, but he still did not reach his destination.
After turning a corner, Mencius saw a huge magma pool, the magma pool was very large, and the land around it was cracked, and from time to time flames gushed out of the cracks.
In addition, to Mencius's surprise, there were actually strains of danmu growing on the cracked earth, and the flames burned to their surfaces without being affected in the slightest.
"It turned out to be Danmu, I should have thought of it a long time ago. ”
Meng Zitao was very curious about where the Danmu would grow, but along the way, he didn't see the shadow of a Danmu at all, it turned out to be growing in such a special environment.
Since it is a danmu, Meng Zitao has confidence in detoxification, he took out a tool to prepare to dig out the danmu, for others, the cracked land is a problem, he has no problem at all, and he came to a danmu very lightly.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, an angry roar sounded behind Meng Zitao, and it turned out to be a creature that looked like an ape, with a fierce face, red eyes, baring his teeth, and waving his claws to attack Meng Zitao from behind.
"Hey!"
Meng Zitao burst into a shout, he suddenly jumped up, turned his head backwards, and the ape that sneaked up on Meng Zitao, when Meng Zitao jumped up, suddenly pounced on the position where Meng Zitao was standing, but Meng Zitao had already dodged, and the ape pounced.
Meng Zitao turned over and fell gently behind the ape, his movements were very elegant, whether he jumped up or down, he did not bring a trace of waves, and even the flames churning from time to time in the cracks did not have a trace of fluctuations because of Meng Zitao's jumping, if there were people around, it would definitely cause them to exclaim.
The ape was unaware of Meng Zitao's movements, and it didn't react until Meng Zitao's hands fell on his shoulders, but at this time, Meng Zitao had already used his strength, lifted the ape, and fell to the ground fiercely.
"Bang ....... woo ......" As Meng Zitao fell, a muffled sound mixed with the screams of the ape suddenly resounded throughout the space.
At this time, Mencius noticed what the ape looked like, which was clearly the demon depicted in the previous murals and pebbles.
"So the devil was referring to this! Meng Zitao suddenly realized.
After a while, the screams of the demon ape gradually stopped, and he staggered to his feet, looking at Meng Zitao's gaze, both frightened and angry.
Looking at the ape who stood up, Meng Zitao also flashed a trace of surprise in his heart, he just fell, even if it was a large animal like a monkey, it would be broken by the internal organs of the fall at this time, but although this ape looked very painful, he couldn't see any real damage on the surface.
"It's really rough skin and thick meat!" Meng Zitao said secretly.
The demon ape suddenly screamed again, and rushed towards Meng Zitao, this collision, if there is no strength, it is impossible to prevent it, not to mention, the demon ape also opened its bloody mouth, if you really want to be bitten by it, you will have to lose half your life if you don't die.
Of course, Meng Zitao couldn't be succeeded by it, so he directly slid to the side of the demon ape and blasted it over with a punch.
With this punch, the demon ape flew out directly, slamming into the stone wall so hard that it didn't even snort......
