Hearing the conversation between the two, Gao Xing couldn't help but smile mysteriously: "Let's go up and have a look, maybe you will have new discoveries......"

"Okay!"

With Gao Xing leading the team, Professor Chen and the others naturally wanted to see the whole picture of the nine-story demon building.

But I also have to admit that they are really bold enough.

Or rather, quite dedicated.

This made Gao Xing a little admired.

On the other hand, Gao Xing is not like them.

He is a very special kind of person.

You can call it a time traveler. Now that you've come into this world, try to be as perfect as possible. Besides, it's only the side quests that have been completed so far.

The most important thing is to complete the main quest.

Moreover, you must try to learn a little bit in this world and improve your strength, so as to make this trip worthwhile.

When walking towards the tower, Professor Chen walked quite slowly, and as he walked, he explained to Gao Xing and the others some of the legends he had mastered about the nine-story demon tower, as well as his inferences.

"In the past, we heard that a large tomb group was found in Qinghai, which is suspected to be the legendary nine-story demon tower.

Excited, I took a few students to set off overnight and ran to Qinghai.

As a result, when I got there, there was indeed a tomb, but after my investigation, it was not a nine-story demon tower.

That tomb group should be a group of noble tombs of a small country.

They dug up an underground palace and built some miniature buildings in the underground palace, like a city.

Then with the help of the mountain, a number of caves were dug, from top to bottom, with a total of nine layers, to store the corpses......"

Fluttershy couldn't help but ask, "Professor Chen, are they imitating the Nine-Story Demon Tower?" ”

"It's hard to tell who imitates whom, after all, family-style tombs like theirs are quite rare...... However, it is still very different from the legendary nine-story demon tower.

The one we are walking on now is completely consistent in appearance and style, but the corpses inside are ...... It's a little confusing. ”

Second floor.

Third floor.

……

When he came to the sixth floor, Professor Chen, like Gao Xing at first, finally made a new discovery.

"Huh? Not only are there fewer corpses on top of this, but the outfits are different from those below......"

"yes, what's going on?" Fluttershy says as she spruges through the notes.

"Could it be that the people below are all buried together?" Shirley Young guessed.

"It should be said that everyone is a burial companion!"

Gao Xing finally stopped selling it, and lightly explained the situation on the seventh, eighth, and ninth floors.

"Is there such a thing? Let's go up and have a look. ”

Professor Chen was taken aback, and it seemed that he had been inspired again.

Seven floors.

Eight floors.

Eventually, we came to the ninth floor.

"Sure enough...... And sure enough, it was! ”

Although Gao Xing leaked the bottom in advance, Professor Chen was still pleasantly surprised, as if he had discovered a new continent, and his voice was extremely excited.

"Based on this man's clothing, I dare to conclude that this man must have been a king of the Ancient Western Regions before...... Fluttershy, hurry up and take a detailed note of his features, costumes......

Miss Yang, please take a few more photos.

If this body can be transported, it will be a major breakthrough for our archaeological work, and it will definitely shock the world. ”

Fluttershy is taken aback: "Huh? Professor Chen, you don't really want to take this corpse, do you? ”

"Silly girl, how do you bring it now? We're going to find the Exquisite Ancient City, and we'll talk about it later when we have a chance. ”

After speaking, Professor Chen squatted down and carefully identified the words and patterns on the ground while taking notes.

After a while, my eyes lit up and my expression became more excited.

"Got it, I finally got it...... This tower was built by the legendary Queen of Excellence. ”

In a moment of excitement, Professor Chen forgot to suppress his voice.

The pitch unconsciously raised a lot, and as a result, it alarmed the fire ladybugs outside, and after a commotion, two fire ladybugs actually flew in......

"Dizzy!"

Hu Bayi was startled, broke out in a cold sweat, and stood motionless and didn't dare to move.

Fluttershy, Professor Chen, and Shirley Yang are also in a cold sweat with frightened eyes.

"Stand still and don't move!"

Gao Xing frowned and drank, then quickly raised his hand, and the two Five Emperor Coins flew out silently, as if they had eyes, and accurately hit the two fire ladybugs that flew over.

Then, the Five Emperor Money flew back into Gao Xing's hands.

And those two fire ladybugs...... But it disappeared mysteriously, and only a faint cloud of smoke could be seen faintly drifting away.

"Whew!"

Fluttershy holds her breath until she finally exhales and lifts her hand to pat her chest.

"I'm sorry, I ...... I was thrilled. ”

Professor Chen wiped a cold sweat and said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, fortunately it's not outside."

"By the way, Comrade Gao Xing, what you used just now is the Taoist Five Emperors Money?"

"Yes."

Professor Chen couldn't help but be excited: "Long knowledge, really long knowledge, I have only heard of the Five Emperor Qian before, but I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see a real Taoist master casting spells today." ”

Hu Bayi took a few steps forward, looked for a while on the ground, and then walked back.

"Gao Xing, where are their corpses?"

"Where did the corpse come from? They can be called ghosts in a way...... You can understand that they are ghosts among the insects, and after being hit by the Five Emperor Coins I cast a spell, they will be directly wiped out, and there is not even any scum left. ”

Shirley Yang looked dumbfounded and muttered, "At first, you said that you could destroy the fire ladybug, but to be honest, I was skeptical. Right now...... I'm really convinced.

My father once told me that the ancient Chinese heritage has a long history, and there are countless things that science simply cannot explain.

At the time, I thought my father was exaggerating.

Now, I am deeply aware that my knowledge is still very narrow. ”

Hearing this, Hu Bayi couldn't help but smile: "Miss Yang, although you are an American, your roots are still our Chinese, right?" ”

Shirley Yang nodded: "Well, sort of." ”

In fact, if you really have to study it carefully, her distant ancestors are not Chinese......

After this small false alarm, Professor Chen crouched on the ground again, pointed to the strange patterns and began to explain.

"Although we haven't deciphered the ghost cave text yet, I have studied these symbols all my life, and I have a little experience.

Combined with these patterns, I've basically read some of the origins of this tower......"

Hearing this, even Gao Xing came to his senses.

After all, he only speculated based on his own ideas at first, and he was definitely not as professional as Professor Chen.

In addition, the plot has changed now.

According to the plot, it is impossible for Professor Chen and his party to go up to the nine-story demon building. Not to mention ascending to the ninth floor, even if you enter the first floor, I am afraid that you will be burned to slag by countless fire ladybugs.

And how could you possibly discover the secrets of the tower?

Fluttershy holds her notebook and listens as she takes notes.

This is also a rare experience and an opportunity for her to grow.
