Since he decided to bring the two of them, Luo Zihang naturally wanted to tell them about his plan......

Well, it's mostly about pesticides.

Ah Cheng, who has insect PTSD, directly raised his hands and feet in favor after hearing this, especially when he heard that the place where the tomb of King Xian is located is also known as the Worm Valley, he couldn't help but propose: "Do you have enough insecticides to prepare?" Do you need to prepare a little more? There are three of us! ”

Although Monica felt that Luo Zihang was making a bit of a fuss, the reasons he gave were still very reasonable, so he did not object, and said that he could still engage in some pesticides that were only available abroad.

So Luo Zihang decisively postponed the date of departure, waiting for her to bring back those pesticides......

In addition to pesticides, Luo Zihang also prepared two very important things.

The first is fuel.

The insecticide may not work, but the flame is still very lethal to most insects, and he even went to get two flamethrowers to control weeds.

The other is a soft sword, which Luo Zihang spent a lot of money to order for someone, just so that when he needs to use his own force in the future, he can have a blade at hand.

When this soft sword is not in use, it can be tied to the waist with the scabbard as a belt, which is the inspiration that Luo Zihang got from "Seven Swords Under the Heavenly Mountain", and the Tengjiao sword used by Gui Zhongming is a belt soft sword.

However, this is not Liang Yusheng's first creation, there were similar soft swords in ancient times, but this was only known by Luo Zihang later.

When everything was ready, the three of them set off for the location of the tomb of the king marked on the map.

With the help of Luo Zihang's foresight and pesticides, this trip to the Worm Valley is indeed much easier than in the original book, but it does not mean that it will be smooth sailing.

After all, in addition to those strange insects, there are also zongzi, ghosts, and all kinds of evil arts left by King Xian in the tomb, even if Luo Zihang already knew about it in advance, it was still a headache to deal with.

Fortunately, the aura of the protagonist on them is still reliable, and the three of them finally cut off the head of the king without danger, and escaped from the tomb of the king with the dust beads inside.

"So...... What's next? ”

After taking the dust bead out of King Xian's head, the three of them looked at this eyeball that looked like jade but not jade, and looked like gold and not gold.

Luo Zihang knew that he was going to find the glacier crystal corpse in the nine-story demon tower, and then took out the other party's eyeballs and threw them into the altar of the Kunlun Divine Palace with the dust beads.

The problem, however, ......

How would he explain where he knew how to lift the curse?

In fact, it's okay not to say anything, anyway, it doesn't matter if the interpersonal relationship in the dungeon is maintained or not, but they have to take risks together next, and if they have a pimple with each other, it will be very detrimental to the next adventure.

So as a last resort, Luo Zihang still wants to maintain the interpersonal relationships in the copy as much as possible.

Of course, if there is really no way to do it later, then he can only be a riddler who insists on going his own way.

In fact, there is another way, that is, to honestly wait for the characters of the plot that led to the Kunlun Shrine to appear, and then go on according to the original plot.

It's just that Luo Zihang doesn't really want to do this.

First, because of his own actions, the overall plot and the time for them to get the dust beads have been advanced a lot, and if you want to wait for the Hong Kong businessman who caused the plot to appear, then you have to wait.

And during this time, Luo Zihang will definitely not be idle, Monica will definitely look around for clues, and then pull him and Ah Cheng to various tombs, maybe he will make up the plot of the Longling Maze Cave by the way.

So it must not be delayed.

The second is that Luo Zihang remembered that the Hong Kong businessman had dragged a lot of feet in the original book, and he didn't want to be teammates with the "inner ghost", even if he knew that the other party would not really have any impact on their actions, but......

It's disgusting.

It's obviously easier to solve the problem, so why make a mistake and drag it out.

So this goes back to the original question - how can he convince Monica and Ah Cheng to trust his intelligence sources?

I can't say that I can predict the future like the prophet in the ancient city......

Huh?

Luo Zihang was slightly stunned.

It doesn't seem like it's impossible......

Didn't Monica suspect that the person who was really a descendant of the prophet was not her, but Luo Zihang?

Luo Zihang did not immediately "identify" his identity as a "descendant of the prophet" to the two, because it was too abrupt, and he planned to spend a few days laying the ground.

In the next few days, while following Monica and Ah Cheng to look through various materials and looking for clues, he pretended to inadvertently complain to the two of them that he had not slept well recently and had been having some strange dreams.

At first, Monica and Ah Cheng were anxious to find clues, and they were not very interested in what Luo Zihang had dreamed about, but they couldn't help but keep him talking.

And after checking the information for several days and still finding nothing, Monica and Ah Cheng couldn't continue to maintain the same concentration as before, so they also had the effort to listen to Luo Zihang's chatter.

Prophecy has never been able to be said so clearly, so Luo Zihang did not directly tell Monica and Ah Cheng the solution in the name of prophecy, but in a fragmented way, he made them into dreams that he had in the past few days.

As he paved the way step by step, without Luo Zihang explaining it himself, Monica and Ah Cheng took the initiative to link his "dream" with the dust beads and the curse of the ghost cave.

Then, after some analysis, Monica really believed that he was a descendant of the prophet, and also awakened some kind of prophetic ability.

Even she even found a reason for Luo Zihang-

"Maybe it was the contact with the dust beads that activated the prophetic bloodline in your body."

Although Monica used a speculative sentence, her tone was unusually determined, and she had obviously confirmed her guess.

Luo Zihang naturally took the opportunity to release more information and successfully pointed to the Karamir Mountains in Tibet.

Monica was inclined to be Luo Zihang's "prophecy", and they had not been able to find any clues, so they simply decided to try their luck in Karamir.

Since they have decided on the next destination, Luo Zihang and the others naturally have to prepare the supplies first.

The previous trip to Worm Valley consumed a lot of his funds, so this time the supplies were all paid for by the rich woman Monica, and during the preparation period, Luo Zihang would use the name of "prophecy" every once in a while to remind Monica and Ah Cheng, and by the way, let her prepare more equipment and props for these dangers.

When everything was ready, the three of them set out on their journey to Tibet again.

Because of the sufficient preparations in the early stage, and the fact that there were no internal ghosts in the team to hold them back, Luo Zihang's actions at the beginning were relatively smooth, and in the process of continuous exploration, they also confirmed the correctness of the "prophecy".

It's just that when they finally dug up the ice, entered the nine-story demon building, and found the glacier crystal corpse that was suspected to be the princess of the demon kingdom, a very important question arose-

This crystal corpse ......

She doesn't have eyes!

Luo Zihang doesn't remember if there was any mention in the original book that the crystal corpse didn't have eyes, because the protagonist and his party in the original book didn't dig out the eyes of the crystal corpse at first, but later, when they were preparing sacrifices and planning to dig out their own eyes, they encountered a stranded fish and spit out the eyes from the fish's mouth.

So......

The corpse's eyes were thrown into the underground river of the shrine in the first place? How did Zhou Shijie confirm that they belonged to the crystal corpse when he first saw the pair of eyes?

Luo Zihang looked down at the crystal corpse in front of him......

Well, if her eyes look like the corpse, it doesn't seem difficult to recognize them at first sight.

Just when Luo Zihang was trying to remember where he could meet the fish, Ah Cheng on the side also spoke anxiously: "Brother Jie, didn't you say that the sacrifice was the eyes of this crystal corpse?" But this thing doesn't have eyes! ”

As he spoke, he poked the dagger into the black hole of the crystal corpse, probably trying to rummage through her eyes and fall into her skull from time to time.

"Huh...... Other! ”

Luo Zihang took a step slower, and after the crystal corpse was stimulated, it suddenly opened its mouth, and a large group of insects flew out of it that were the same as the original fire ladybugs, but the color was silver-white.

In the previous exploration, they also knew that these insects are actually called Dapu ghost insects, which have two colors, blue and white, the blue is the fire worm, which is called the immeasurable karmic fire, and the white is the ice worm, which is called the poor god ice, which is the power of the ghost mother.

"Damn! It's these bugs! Ah Cheng, who had seen the fireflies before, was so frightened that the dagger fell, and he screamed and retreated.

"Molotov cocktails! Flamethrower! ”

At this time, Luo Zihang didn't care about thinking about his eyes, he quickly took out the prepared flamethrower, and sprayed at the group of ice insects, and at the same time, his other hand was not idle, picking up a homemade incendiary bomb and throwing it at the crystal corpse.

On the other side, after escaping a few steps backwards, Ah Cheng also recovered from the fright, and also raised his flamethrower, and attacked the group of ice insects with Luo Zihang one after the other.

However, what Luo Zihang didn't expect happened again......

After encountering the flames, those ice worms quickly transformed from white to blue, and changed into the appearance they had encountered in another nine-story demon building.

This is another detail that Luo Zihang has forgotten, and it is an extremely fatal detail.

But fortunately, Luo Zihang's other action saved his life......

These Dapu ghost insects did not pounce on Luo Zihang and them, but turned around and fell back onto the crystal corpse, as if they intended to absorb the flames on her body.

"Get away from them!"

Luo Zihang shouted, threw two more incendiary bombs, and then quickly retreated while searching around.

Although he hadn't remembered the fact that the Dapu Ghost Worm could switch between the two forms, he couldn't be wrong that the worms were burned to death by fire in the end, so there must have been a step he missed.

Soon, he remembered the two crystal balls placed on the stone platform, one blue and one white, before entering the nine-story demon tower.

So he and Ah Cheng dragged the Dapu ghost worms with incendiary bombs, and asked Monica to go back and smash the blue crystal ball.

Monica didn't know what the use of this was, but she obediently ran back.

After a while, a gunshot rang out in the distance, and the Dapu ghost insects that were fighting the fire quickly turned white, and then they were engulfed in flames around them.

After dealing with the Dapu Ghost Worm without any danger, Monica and Ah Cheng both looked a little discouraged...... I finally saw the hope of lifting the curse, but in the end it was empty of joy.

However, the two of them have not been decadent for too long, after all, they have found this place, how can they give up, at least they can go to the altar to see the situation, and if they find the eyes of the crystal corpse in the future, they will be more experienced when they come back.

What's more, Luo Zihang also said that he had a white-bearded fish more than ten meters long in his dream, which seemed to be very critical, maybe the eyes of the crystal corpse were in the stomach of the strange fish.

In fact, Luo Zihang is not sure about this, because if the fish had swallowed its eyeballs a long time ago, why did he wait until Zhou Shijie and them arrived before spitting it out......

Well, if you explain it with the protagonist's aura, it becomes very reasonable.

So in this case, Luo Zihang, as the protagonist, should be able to find the pair of eyes smoothly.

And things were as Luo Zihang expected, they successfully found a pair of crystal clear eyes in the stomach of the big fish.

After that, it was very simple, after overcoming all the obstacles on the way, they managed to reach the altar of the Kunlun Shrine, and then according to the mural tips around the altar, they threw the dust beads and crystal eyes into the pool.

After solving the light-extinguishing silver baby fish that appeared after the sacrifice, there was no more danger, because Luo Zihang had paid special attention to the use of explosives at the beginning, and the underground palace did not collapse like in the original book.

The group followed the same path and returned to the ground safely.

After going back, Monica immediately contacted Professor Tian, who was far away, and was completely relieved after learning that the other party's condition did not continue to deteriorate.

Then she invited Luo Zihang to live in the United States with her, just like in the original book.

Of course Luo Zihang will not refuse, after all, "Zhou Shijie's" fortune is terrible, there is no rich woman to support, he can only rob the tomb if he wants to make money.

However, Ah Cheng did not go abroad with them as in the original book, and Professor Tian has now recovered, so he chose to continue to stay in the other party's archaeological team.

This is also normal, after all, Ah Cheng here is not the same as Li, he ran to be a tomb robber without doing his job, and he has a serious job, so there is no reason for him to leave everything behind and go abroad with him because of a little brotherly righteousness.

Moreover, because Luo Zihang and Ah Cheng did not take tomb robbery as a profession, it is naturally impossible to talk about the end of the talisman and the golden basin washing mentioned in the movie.

This leads to a critical problem......

Zhou Shijie and Monica's drunken disorder on the night of washing their hands in the golden basin did not happen as a matter of course.

They just had a meal together the day before they left the country, and they did drink wine, but none of them got drunk, and after eating, they went their separate ways.

"Tsk! Lost ......"

Luo Zihang, who couldn't get a white girl's ticket, sighed at home.

……

Recommended Ticket?? Pass?
