Chapter 22: The Secret of Shirley Young

Not long after Shao Shan and Hu Bayi chatted, Shirley Yang also came over.

"Why doesn't Miss Yang rest?" Hu Bayi greeted.

"Mr. Shao, Mr. Hu, thank you all the way!" Shirley Yang sat down straight to the side, looked at the two of them and said, "Originally, I was still a little worried, worried about whether you have enough ability and experience to lead everyone, but now it seems that this decision is the right one, without you, it would be difficult for me to find the Exquisite Ancient City!" ”

"Miss Yang, you're so polite!" Hu Bayi said, and then his lips opened slightly, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.

"What's the matter, Mr. Hu, just say whatever you want, I won't mind?" Shirley Yang tilted his head and looked at Hu Bayi quietly.

Hu Bayi hesitated, but still asked the question in his heart: "Miss Yang, I have always had a question, why did you and your father have to go to this exquisite ancient city?" Legend has it that the city has long since ceased to exist, has not been seen in years, and we know too little about the desert to find it. ”

"What Mr. Hu said makes sense!" Shirley Yang was silent for a moment, then continued, "But I always believe in the existence of the Exquisite Ancient City. ”

"Ever since my father disappeared, I've had the same dream almost every night, and I've always dreamed of a big black hole, and there was a coffin hanging above the mouth of the hole, and there was a huge thing on top of it, but I couldn't see what it was, and every time I tried to see it clearly, I woke up. In the past six months, I have been repeating the same scene in my dreams, and I firmly believe that this is the dream that my father entrusted to me, and that coffin must contain the Exquisite Queen! ”

Hu Bayi glanced at Shao Shan a little speechlessly, he didn't expect that this American was so superstitious, and he actually believed in dreams, and therefore believed in the existence of the Exquisite Ancient City.

"Lao Hu, let me tell you a story!" Shao Shan said lightly.

"Legend has it that there is a sacred mountain in the ancient Western Regions, called Zagrama Mountain, this mountain is surrounded by dense rivers, many animals and plants, and there is a tribe living here for generations, let's call it Zagrama!"

Hearing this, Shirley Yang's face suddenly changed greatly, he bit his lip tightly, and stared at Shao Shan in horror, his heart was like turning over the river and the sea, quite uncalm, and Shao Shan was still telling his story.

"One day they found a bottomless cave in the mountains, no one could go down to the bottom of the cave, in order to see the secret of the cave, the high priest of the Zagrama tribe, ordered a jade eyeball, hoping to see the situation in this bottomless pit through the power of the true god, with a large sacrifice, disaster began to come."

"The entire Zagrama tribe has all been cursed, almost wiped out, very few of their people have lived past the age of forty, and the most important thing is that this curse has been passed down from generation to generation, and the offspring will be tortured forever!"

"In order to avoid the calamity, they left their homeland and migrated to the East, but this curse still torments their descendants, and in order to break this curse, the talented people of the Zagrama descendants have traveled all over the world, but still found nothing!"

"Well, Brother Shao's story is quite tortuous, but does this have anything to do with us?" Hu Bayi was at a loss for a while.

"I think Miss Yang is a descendant of the Zagrama clan!" Shao Shan looked at Shirley Yang and said, the faint words were like a boulder knocking on the bottom of her heart.

"What, Miss Yang is a descendant of the Nazagrama clan, isn't that cursed......" Hu Bayi looked at Shirley Yang dumbfounded, and at this moment, his worldview was turned upside down.

"How do you know these things!" Shirley Yang asked, looking at Shao Shan deadly.

"There was once a senior who came into contact with your clansmen and knew a lot about these things, and I can't think of anyone other than the Zagrama people who would risk their lives so persistently to find this exquisite ancient city!"

"What does this have to do with the Exquisite Ancient City?" Hu Bayi was even more confused.

"Don't worry, old Hu, listen to me slowly!" Shao Shan continued.

"Hundreds of years after the Zagrama migration left, Zagrama Mountain ushered in a new tribe, it is said that they are a branch of the Demon Kingdom, after the Demon Kingdom was destroyed, they migrated here, they also found the ghost cave in the mountain, and established a country on it, this tribe is the so-called Ghost Cave Tribe, and this country is the Exquisite Country."

"Later, the throne passed to the generation of the Absolute Queen, and legend has it that this Absolute Queen had a pair of eyes that could communicate with the ghost cave and mastered the power from the ghost cave, which allowed her to conquer all the surrounding tribes, but the country soon perished due to tyranny."

"No wonder Miss Yang must find the Exquisite Ancient City!" Now to put it bluntly, Hu Bayi also understands the relationship, but understanding and accepting it are completely different things.

"As for Miss Yang's dream, it is easy to explain, because there was once a prophet born in the Zagrama tribe who can predict major events thousands of years later, I think Miss Yang may have inherited some of the prophetic abilities!"

Shirley Yang was so shocked that she couldn't speak at this time, Shao Shan's impact on her was too great, and the secret buried in her heart was told by someone, which made her fall into a daze for a while.

After a long time, Shirley Yang finally came back to his senses, and looked at Shao Shan with complicated eyes: "Yes, I am indeed a descendant of the Zagrama tribe, the people of our tribe have been plagued by curses for thousands of years, often suffering from severe iron deficiency when they reach middle age, the blood in the body gradually turns yellow, stops flowing, and finally dies, very few people can live past the age of forty, my mother died because of this, and my father also ran for half his life to unravel the curse on me. ”

Hu Bayi thought for a while and said, "Miss Yang, I understand your feelings, but since the ghost cave is so terrifying, we will really die if we look for it like this." ”

"I know, but I can't help it, now that you know, go and leave it to your own decision!" After going through so many things, Shirley Yang also felt physically and mentally exhausted, she didn't know whether her persistence was right or wrong, and whether it made sense to persevere.

"Old Hu, you go and discuss it with the fat man, as for Professor Chen, don't talk about it yet!" Shao Shan gestured to Hu Bayi.

"Okay!" Hu Bayi glanced at Shirley Yang, got up and returned to the place where everyone was resting, woke up the fat man, and the two walked to the corner on the other side.

"Actually, you don't have to worry, the Zagrama people have just started some kind of sacrificial ritual, and all the people have become sacrifices, as long as you find the real jade eyeball, the reverse sacrifice can lift the curse!"

"Moreover, I know Lao Hu's personality, he will not quit!"

Shirley Yang crossed her arms and knees and nodded silently.

But after a while, Hu Bayi and the fat man got together.

"Miss Yang, you're not kind, isn't this letting us go to death!" The fat man glared at Shirley Yang angrily and said angrily.

Shirley Yang looked at her calmly and did not speak.

"Don't think you're fine if you don't talk......"

"Fatty, don't say a word!" Hu Bayi frowned and pulled the fat man.

"She did such a thing, and she won't let me say a word!"

"Okay, Miss Yang does have unspeakable hardships, tell me what you plan to do next!" Shao Shan glanced around at the three of them and said.

After Shao Shan's words were finished, the atmosphere fell silent for a while, and no one spoke.

"Fat man......" Shao Shan took the lead in looking at Wang Kaixuan.

"If you want to go, you have to add money, Lao Tzu's life is not only worth so much money!" The fat man muttered angrily.

"Money is not an issue!" Shirley Yang said that money really doesn't matter to her.

"Since that's the case, let's break into this Longtan Tiger's Den and see if there is really such an evil door!" Hu Bayi said in a deep voice.

"Okay, it's unlikely to let Professor Chen and them go back when they get here, when the time comes, Lao Hu and the fat man, you will protect them inch by inch, and leave the rest to me and Miss Yang, after all, we are familiar with the doorway here!" Shao Shan pondered for a moment and said.

"Good!"

"Don't worry!"
