Chapter 165: Zagrama Mountain (1st Update)
When everyone heard Professor Chen say this, their strong curiosity once again overcame their fears, and they all wanted to see the exquisite ancient city, as well as the mythical and legendary Huangquan Hell, even if it was a real soul returning to Huangquan, this life was worth it.
With this decision in mind, the group quickly took pictures of the tomb and found the route to the Zagrama Valley on the frescoes on the top of the tomb.
After sorting out all the materials and collecting all the information, everyone left the tomb, and after some preparation and rest, they set out on the road to the Zagrama Valley to find the exquisite ancient city.
On the way, Shirley Yang wanted to know from Ye Yunyi what kind of power the Absolute Queen had, as well as more information about the Absolute Kingdom, and whether Ye Yunyi could help her lift the curse on her body.
And Ye Yunyi just smiled and replied: "When you arrive at the Exquisite Ancient City, the answer you want to know, everything will be revealed." ”
After speaking, he sat down on the queen's body, closed his eyes and meditated, and said no more.
Shirley Yang didn't get an answer from Ye Yunyi's mouth, and he was inevitably a little lost in his heart, but he didn't want to disturb Ye Yunyi too much, and he inevitably collided with him, and everything could only wait until the Exquisite Ancient City to find the answer.
After four or five days of traveling, they walked into the depths of the desert, known as the Black Desert, the Desert of Death.
In this long stretch of yellow sand, as far as the eye can see, they have lost their way, and all the compasses have lost their function.
"Daoist Ye, now our compass is no longer working, we can't discern the direction, do you know how we should go?" Helpless, Shirley Yang had no choice but to ask Ye Yunyi for help.
"We have reached the outskirts of the Exquisite Ancient City, and the reason why your compass has failed is due to the influence of the Magnetic Mountain, which is the Zagrama Valley." Ye Yunyi replied with a smile.
"You're saying we've reached the Exquisite Ancient City?" Shirley Yang had a happy smile on her face.
"Look ahead, there is the gate to the Exquisite Ancient City, the Zagrama Valley, the Black Magnetic Mountain." Ye Yunyi pointed to the two black mountains that were vaguely visible in the distance, they stood opposite each other, and the valley was like a huge gate.
"Great, thank you, Daoist Ye, we have finally found the Exquisite Ancient City." Shirley Yang followed the direction of Ye Yunyi's finger and saw two black mountains with a telescope.
Then I excitedly informed everyone of the news.
Knowing the direction of the way, the exhausted people also had the motivation to move forward again, with enthusiasm for archaeology and excitement about the unsolved mysteries hidden in history, facing the wind and sand, thinking about Zagrama ahead.
When night falls and the stars are dotted, the people reach the foot of the Zagrama Valley, and in front of them is the exquisite ancient city that they have been longing for and looking for for a long time.
The crowd came down from the camels and were about to stop to rest, when the camels suddenly neighed, as if they felt some great threat.
There was also a panic in everyone's hearts, they had experienced too strange things along the way, and a little wind and grass could make them nervous.
Everyone held tools that could be used as weapons in their hands, looked at the four directions vigilantly, and faintly thought of Ye Yunyi's side approaching.
"Ye Shenxian, is there something unclean ahead that disturbs the camels?" The fat man asked, guessing.
After all, animals have a much stronger sense than humans, and the camel must have discovered something they couldn't see to neigh.
"There is nothing evil ahead, there are a few small insects, and a few dead bodies that have been attacked by small insects, you have the right to be careful." Ye Yunyi looked ahead and said lightly.
With Ye Yunyi's words, everyone was a little relieved, so they lit the torches and carefully probed ahead.
Sure enough, everyone found a few corpses, but they didn't find any small insects that Ye Yunyi said, Hu Bayi walked up to the dead bodies, and according to their clothing and equipment, they speculated that they might be tomb robbers.
In order to be careful, he advised everyone to get out of here as soon as possible so as not to be attacked by small bugs.
But at this moment, Hao Aiguo saw the kettle on the corpse, walked to the corpse's side, and reached out to take the kettle down.
After all, after a few days of traveling, their reserve of water had been depleted again, and he thought that there should be some water in the kettle, so he wanted to take it off and keep it as a reserve.
"Don't move the corpse......" Hu Bayi noticed Hao Aiguo's actions and hurriedly stopped them.
But it was too late, a strange snake with shining scales on its body, a black flesh crown on its head, and a length of three feet, suddenly burst out of the corpse's mouth and rushed straight to Hao Aiguo's face.
Hu Bayan was quick with his hand, and directly picked up the sapper shovel in his hand, slashed at the strange snake, and chopped it into two sections.
There was a great terror in the face of life and death, and Hao Aiguo, who was almost attacked, sat on the ground in fright, trembling all over, and reluctantly thanked Hu Bayi: "It's too ...... It's too dangerous, thanks to ......"
But before he finished speaking, the severed snake head on the ground bounced up suddenly, like a fast arrow off the string, biting Hao Aiguo's neck with a bite, the venom quickly invaded the blood, Hao Aiguo's face froze, there were a few grunts in his throat, he wanted to speak but couldn't speak, his skin instantly turned dark blue, he sat motionless in place, and died.
"Patriotic, patriotic......" Professor Chen watched Hao Aiguo die like this, his heart was grief, unacceptable, and fainted.
Everyone else was also stunned, and Hu Bayi suggested that everyone leave here quickly, and it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time.
But just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by the fat man: "Old Hu, don't move!" ”
Seeing the fat man's solemn expression, Hu Bayi also felt the strangeness of his back, and there was the slightest sound of a strange snake spitting out a letter in his ears.
The fat man held a gun and wanted to kill the strange snake, but the strange snake was attached to Hu Bayi's face, and he couldn't aim at all, so he had to turn his head to look at Ye Yunyi and ask for help: "Ye Shenxian, save Lao Hu ......."
But Ye Yunyi smiled and said nothing, looking at this scene calmly.
The strange snake opened its mouth, its two poisonous fangs, in the starlight, flashing with a compelling cold light, and when it was about to bite Hu Bayi's neck, the purple sword he was carrying behind his back suddenly flashed with purple light, and the strange snake was cut off and fell from Hu Bayi's shoulder.
Looking at the corpse of the strange snake on the ground, Hu Bayi's body also felt a little weak, took the sword from behind his back, stroked it gently, and then thought that Ye Yunyi cast a grateful look.
If it weren't for the sword protector given to him by Ye Yunyi, I'm afraid that his life would not be guaranteed.
And the three students hurriedly knelt in front of Ye Yunyi, praying: "Ye Shenxian, you have great powers, please save Teacher Hao!" ”
