Chapter 183: Nine-Story Demon Tower
In less than half a minute, Li Chengqian's voice suddenly came from under the glacier.
"It's safe here, you can come down!"
His voice should have come from a long distance, but the range of transmission was strangely limited to a small space, and even seemed to appear directly in everyone's ears.
Above the glacier, everyone was as silent as death, and Wang Kaixuan said tentatively: "This Brother Li is not taking the usual path, haha......."
He snorted, trying to relieve the indescribable weirdness.
However, listening to his words, everyone's expressions became much more strange.
Is this not just an unusual path, but a path that people can walk?
Everyone couldn't help but think, where is this Li Chengqian, and what is his origin?
Hu, Wang Kaixuan, Chen Shouren, and Hao Aiguo all set their eyes on Shirley Yang.
After all, Li Chengqian was brought over by Shirley Yang, and it is said that there is a lot of relationship between the ancestors.
Shirley Yang was also a little confused, she pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.
To be honest, she didn't know much more about Li Chengqian than she did about it.
Of course, perhaps because of her clan, her trust in Li Chengqian has never changed.
"Alright, since there's no problem down there, let's go down quickly."
She digressed the subject.
The group fiddled with their equipment and descended little by little along the rope.
The skill of this kind of rappelling is actually not low, and the center of gravity and the speed of descent need to be considered to a certain extent, especially the bottomless cliff below, which gives people a lot of psychological pressure.
Wang Kaixuan slid down a little, and couldn't help but complain: "I really envy Brother Li, how can you be like us, and you have to suffer this crime."
Can this not be envied? It's the envy of everyone.
Hu took care of his whereabouts, and he was too lazy to take care of Wang Fatzi.
At this time, Shirley Yang let out an exclamation, and the rope above unhooked and collapsed.
In fact, Li Chengqian is also to blame for this, his scene just now brought a lot of shock to everyone, and many people were in a trance, and it was inevitable that there would be some negligence.
However, now is not the time to hold accountable, the rope collapsed, and Shirley Yang fell directly on his back and fell down.
"Miss Yang!"
Hu Ying, who was closest to her, quickly stretched out his hand and grabbed it.
However, he only caught a little corner of his clothes, and he slipped out in an instant.
Shirley Yang remained calm despite her whereabouts, suppressing her fears and looking for a chance to survive.
A hand had groped for the Flying Tiger Claw on his waist.
However, the terrain of this glacier is special, there are not many places that can be hooked with the claws of the flying tiger, and in the extremely fast fall, it is extremely difficult to accurately hook a suitable position.
However, she is a mountain heir trained by Partridge Whistle, and even if it is a matter of life and death, she will never give up hope.
Especially since she was still burdened with lifting the thousand-year-old curse of the Zagrama clan, she would never want to die here like this.
The howling cold wind poured into her mouth and nose, making her body start to stiffen a little, and a pair of bright eyes explored all possible opportunities around her, but as the speed of the fall accelerated, approaching the terminal speed, she couldn't help but feel a little desperate.
At the critical moment, she tried to throw out the flying tiger claws, but the ice wall was extremely slippery, there were not many places to hook, coupled with the extremely fast fall, there was no accident, she failed.
Suddenly, a different wind suddenly came, and the next second, she felt that her waist was wrapped around a pair of strong arms, and the whole person was also held in her arms.
Li Chengqian looked at Shirley Yang's faintly pale face, and chuckled, "Unprofessional, Miss Yang."
As he spoke, he stepped on the glacier wall, and after a few ups and downs, he took Shirley Yang down
At the bottom of the glacier.
Shirley Yang stood in place in a daze, and many emotions made her not know what to say for a while.
She stared at Li Chengqian tightly for a long time, and said softly, "Thank you."
Li Chengqian let go of her with a smile and said, "Why, shouldn't the grace of saving lives be repaid with your body?"
He raised his head slightly and announced to the people above the glacier, "Miss Yang is fine, you can go on."
This is a glacier, and it is easy to cause avalanches if it is too loud, but he uses the method of condensing the sound into bundles, so it will not cause any accidents.
With that, he pointed to a completely frozen corpse not far away, and said, "There is a corpse, maybe it is from your father's expedition, you can go and see it."
Shirley Yang calmed down and smoothed Fang Cai's somewhat rippling heartstrings, she knew her purpose very well, at least, in a short period of time, she would not think about things between men and women.
Hearing this, she immediately walked over to check on the corpse.
She picked up the pistol from the corpse first, looked at it for a moment, and said, "I'm familiar with these equipment, you're right, he is indeed from my father's expedition." qδ
It didn't take long for the archaeological team to come down and ask Shirley Yang about his physical condition one by one.
Knowing that it was Li Chengqian who saved her, everyone was amazed, and at the same time, they were faintly accustomed to the vast powers of this person.
Even those little warriors looked at Li Chengqian as if they were looking at the gods.
After a short rest, everyone walked along the bottom of the glacier to the depths.
The group gradually reached a cave, and found an underground river in the depths, which blocked everyone's way, apparently, to wade across the river.
However, on the rock wall by the river, the dense ancient characters suddenly attracted the attention of Professor Chen Jiuren.
Li Chengqian glanced at it twice and said, "This is the ghost cave text, which records a civilization called the Demon Kingdom."
Professor Chen Jiuren was pleasantly surprised, "Xiao Li, do you know these words?"
Li Chengqian said very naturally: "In this world, there should be no words I don't know."
The study of calligraphy in the mysterious space is not for nothing.
So far, except for those words that record the laws of the heavens and stars that are beyond the scope of his cognition, all the relevant words created since the birth of mankind are within the scope of his cognition.
This ghost cave text is naturally no exception.
Hearing this, everyone gathered around, if other people said this, they might think they were talking big, but judging from the many things that Li Chengqian showed that were beyond ordinary people, this did not seem to be a lie.
Glancing at Shirley Yang's expectant expression, Li Chengqian said slowly: "It is said that in ancient times, there was a snake god who came into the world, controlling everything in the world with a giant eye on his head, and after the death of the snake god, a bottomless ghost cave appeared, and the ancestor of the demon kingdom entered the ghost cave, took away the giant eye left by the snake god, mastered the power in it, established the demon kingdom in Karamir, and established the supreme evil Luohai City."
When people listen to this, they always have the feeling that they are listening to myths.
The snake god, the ghost cave, the demon country, and the evil Luohai City all seem to have some kind of unspeakable mystery.
Professor Chen Jiuren sighed, "Although there are some myths in this, what we have discovered today is that a new chapter in the archaeology of the Western Regions will be opened, and this demon country is very likely to be a country that is even older than the exquisite ancient city, which is really incredible."
As he spoke, he hurriedly ordered, "Patriotic, you quickly take the students to record all the words on these rock walls, this is all evidence of the existence of the Demon Kingdom."
He looked at Li Chengqian gratefully and said, "It's still thanks to Xiaoyou's translation, I'm ashamed to say it, I've studied the Ghost Cave Clan for decades, and I can recognize at most one-twelfth of these words, if Xiaoyou wasn't there, I'm afraid it would take a long time for this information to be cracked."
Li Chengqian smiled disapprovingly and said, "It's just a trivial matter."
Then everyone rested for a while, and then set off again, to the surprise of many people, the temperature of this underground river is not low, but extremely suitable for the human body.
This made Hu a little worried.
Li Chengqian walked in the river, stepped on a dry bone at the bottom of the river, and after a slight pause, he strode forward.
"Brother Li, slow down, wait for me." Wang Kaixuan shouted in the back, and as he spoke, he whispered to Hu on the side, "Let's follow Brother Li, and there will be no problems."
He still knew very well who the thickest thigh of the archaeological team was.
Especially in the face of the sword momentum of a sword immortal kneeling, he vaguely felt that Li Chengqian might be much more terrifying and powerful than everyone imagined.
Hu smiled and shook his head, but he didn't refute it, judging from the current situation, following Li Chengqian is indeed the safest way.
Everyone waded all the way through the underground river, and in some dim caves, a blue light gradually shone in front of them.
Everyone came out of the narrow hole, and their eyes suddenly opened up, and in the next second, an ancient building with countless corpses and bones piled up and a faint blue light around them came into view.
