Things in the world are like chess, and there are always intricate connections hidden in irrelevant places.

A step across the chariot may be to set up cannons. A step forward may be for Pegasus... Jiang Xian never expected that the next place would be associated with China. He looked at Song Yunshen deeply for a long time before clicking.

Nodding: "Okay."

"I'm just waiting for your words." Song Yun breathed a deep sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Have a good rest first, and I will also prepare some information. The person involved in the "Earth Burial Sutra" is not easy to find now."

He covered Jiang Xian with a quilt and walked out of the room.

Jiang Xian rested for a long time, and the injuries on his body were okay. The shot in the stomach almost killed him.

Lin Ruoxue came every day and was never late. Jiang Xian asked him to help adopt the son of Red Siniang and Eight-Armed Arhat. After looking at the information, he found that he was only fourteen years old and that he was a boy.

He transferred a sum of money, not much, just ten thousand. Although the money was a drop in the bucket to him, the Red Siniang and the Eight-Armed Arhat died because of him. What he had to do was not only raise each other, but also

Also treat it as your own.

But he didn't go to see the other person. Firstly, his body didn't allow it, and secondly... he didn't think about what attitude, identity, and language to use to face this young man. After all... the other person's parents were all because of him.

And die.

"It turned out that they had already washed their hands..." He closed the document and sighed softly.

Lin Ruoxue didn't interrupt. Sometimes, she was domineering like a queen. But sometimes, she knew very well when a man needed to be quiet.

She gently peeled an apple and handed it to Jiang Xian: "It's all over."

Jiang Xian took it and took a bite. The apple was a bit sour, which made him feel a needle-pricking sensation in his bite muscles. This feeling was like a snake, drilling from the muscles into his heart. After a long time, he sighed:

"Yeah...it's all over..."

If the next clue can't break his curse, then... he will keep looking.

During this period, he will also look for help from some celebrities. Perhaps... he will also find two great masters, Tian Ting Di Shi, who have been washing their hands for more than ten years. He will put forward the most generous conditions, but he will still be conceited about life and death.

You can have sadness, but you can't wallow in it. Only by moving forward can he hope to break the curse of these two thousand years.

"I told grandpa." Lin Ruoxue gently wiped his hands: "If you still want to go to the ground, I will come with you."

"No." Jiang Xian said directly without even thinking about it.

"It's not up to you." Even though she was saying domineering words, Lin Ruoxue smiled. Her smile was beautiful, like an epiphyllum blooming in an instant. It was quiet and bright.

"You've never been to the ground."

"I can learn and be obedient. Wu Sandao may not be my opponent." Lin Ruoxue saw that the other party wanted to speak, so she pinched the other party's lips and said with a smile: "My family has a long history of martial arts, and I have been practicing martial arts since childhood.

If I’m not qualified to go down, how many other people are qualified?”

Jiang Xian wanted to say something else, but Lin Ruoxue shook her head, her voice softened, and she said calmly: "I know, you are talking about danger. Of course I know the danger, but... if you die there, I can at least help you collect your body.

Or would you rather believe others than me?"

She stood up and raised her eyebrows and said: "That's it. By the way, I want to tell you that you can be discharged from the hospital in a week at most. Mr. Song has gone directly to Dengzhou. Various supplies were also transported yesterday. He is lying on the hospital bed.

You don’t have the right to give advice to the exploration team.”

Boom...the door closed, and Jiang Xian let out a long sigh for countless times.

The more favors he owed, the more he owed... He simply covered himself with a quilt and squirmed like maggots in the bed. Why on earth did it become like this?

He should have refused when Lin Ruoxue said she wanted to accompany her in bed... Although refusing was of no use, it was better than the increasingly ambiguous behavior between the two of them now...

Lin Ruoxue was definitely the kind of woman who made his heart beat wildly at the first sight. She was from the same family, and she was interested in having a concubine. If it weren't for the damn curse... But others didn't mind and jumped in.

You live, I will accompany you.

If you die, I will collect your body.

"What the hell..." After more than ten seconds, he showed his head and sighed for the third time: "It's the hardest to bear the kindness of a beauty... So that's what it means..."

……………………

A week later, Jiang Xian was discharged from the hospital on time, and his whole body had returned to its best condition. However, more than a month of bed rest still made his muscles a little loose. His bones were aching, but he obviously didn't have time to exercise anymore.

, just when he left the hospital, a car took him directly to the airport, along with a ticket to Wancheng.

There is no airport in Dengzhou City, and it is administratively managed by Wancheng... In the first-class cabin of the plane, Jiang Xian read the information about Dengzhou City and the information about 003 - of course, what was given was only superficial, and some things were just

Even the words will never appear.

Just when Jiang Xian just took a few glances, his brows raised slightly. He keenly discovered that... Dengzhou City actually has an Archaeological Bureau!

Archaeological bureaus are generally established in ancient cities that are hundreds of years old, or where important historical events occurred in ancient times, or where the capital of a major power was. Wancheng has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times, so it is not surprising that there is an archaeological bureau. However, the administration of Dengzhou belongs to

Wancheng is in charge, but there is also an archaeological bureau?

Moreover, this Archaeological Bureau is actually on the same level as Wancheng. Otherwise, it is the Archaeological Research Institute.

Finally, the location of this archaeological institute is very remote. It is not in the urban area of ​​Dengzhou City, but in a place called Zhangcun Town in the southwest.

"It's interesting." He pushed up his sunglasses and sorted out the geography of Dengzhou City. Then he opened the No. 003 brown paper bag.

As soon as he opened it, his eyes became serious. Because there was a picture inside. The picture was of an insect he had never seen before, and the label below it was: Unnamed, new species: A-12.

A-12... does it mean there are A00-A11 ahead... Jiang Xian looked at it solemnly. He knew very well that due to geographical changes, once an underground world or an island or lake independent of the world appears, it is very likely that

Something... unimaginable appears.

The First Emperor's Underground Palace is like this, but the things there are not the most terrifying. After all, roughly speaking, there are only mutated lampreys, gentleman emperor gibbons, groups of bats, glowing plants, and giant black snakes.

These things roughly and simply form a food chain. This ecological relationship is very fragile. As long as one of the links collapses, the entire chain will collapse. But... if dozens of organisms appear in a natural or unnatural environment, then...

…the results would be completely different!

It is very possible... to give birth to monsters that no one can imagine. Just like Socotra Island.

He looked at the photo in his hand carefully. It was an insect with a slender tail, somewhat similar to a mosquito, but no mouthparts could be seen. The whole body was pitch black. On the attached information card, it was clearly written: They live in caves.

It will become transparent when exposed to sunlight. Its mouthparts are hidden in its elongated abdomen. It lives by sucking blood. Once it is full, its abdomen will expand more than a hundred times. It will also become unable to fly. It lives alone.

"A form that has never been seen before... and... it lives in a cave. Where does it get the blood from?" Jiang Xian frowned and continued to read.

The next thing was a creature that looked like a silkworm. It was terrifyingly big! It was marked as two meters in size. It had a row of blood-red eyes on its side and sharp mouthparts. It was lying on a huge spider web.

"A-07... grows in darkness, is afraid of bright light, and can secrete products like spider silk. It can eat anything..."

The more he looked, the tighter his brows furrowed. We still don’t know what is going on in Dengzhou, but after more than a dozen photos... all creatures have one characteristic: omnivorous!

"To be exact...it eats everything." He closed his eyes and murmured: "This is only possible in extremely dangerous situations...According to the autopsy report, these creatures have almost no extra organs. All organs.

They all only serve one purpose..."

He opened his eyes and looked at the bright clouds outside the window, without saying those three words.

Live.

What kind of horrific environment could grow such a creature that just wants to survive?

How hungry and thirsty do they usually have to survive?

Although I haven't set foot in Dengzhou yet, a strong sense of crisis has already appeared in my heart.

The place I went to this time... I'm afraid it won't be simple!

…………………………

More than an hour later, the plane landed at Wancheng Airport. As soon as he got off the plane, someone from China picked him up in the car and drove all the way to Dengzhou.

Soon, the car drove into Dengzhou City. As part of Wancheng, an important city in Yuzhou Province, Dengzhou City also had a prosperous scene. But no one had time to see this. The car drove all the way out of the main city and headed directly towards

Zhangcun Town drove past.

Even the road into the villages and towns is a standard national highway. It is already eight o'clock, and the street lights on both sides of the national highway are already on. But the lights in the villages and towns are not too bright. With the houses a hundred meters apart, and the dark night sky, it feels like walking on

It's just like on the Huangquan Road.

As it slowly entered the heart of Zhangcun Town, the giant beast called darkness slowly lifted up a corner of its clothes, revealing a continuous field of lights below - it was the exploration team that had arrived in advance. More than a dozen tents stood on the ground. Jiang Xian

After being taken all the way to the central tent, the car stopped.

"Mr. Jiang, you've finally arrived." It was Song Yunshen who came out after opening the tent door. He held Jiang Xian's hand deeply: "It's good to be here... It's good to be here. Come on, let me introduce you."

The tent was brightly lit. It was already January, and it was actually as warm as spring inside. There were soft sofas and black carpets. If it weren't for the tents surrounding it, I wouldn't even feel any discomfort.

Paying attention to this kind of thing is engraved in your bones.

Just next to the desk, there were two old men sitting. They were both very thin and dressed in ordinary clothes. One had a Chinese character face, and the other had a long and thin face with some beard. Song Yunshen nodded towards the two old men, coughed lightly, and said quietly

He said: "Everyone, this is Mr. Jiang. The discoverer of the Underground Palace of the First Emperor. It was he who breached the entire underground palace of the First Emperor."

Brush... The two old men seemed to have little energy. After hearing this sentence, they finally raised their heads and looked at Jiang Xian. Within a few seconds, they all looked away again.

"The Underground Palace of the First Emperor... I saw it..." An old man looked at the top of the tent and said faintly: "It's really good... really..."

"There are all mechanisms there. Being able to come out from there... is really amazing..."

"But it's different here!" His voice trembled, no... even his body was trembling: "There is something down here... There must be something down here! I'm not lying! I'm not lying!!"

"Down here...is the underworld! There are no traps!! Only weird things you can't imagine!!"

His voice became more and more shrill, and immediately, two people rushed in from outside the tent, pressed each other down, and fed them a bottle of medicine.

"The survivor of No. 003 has been having some problems with his brain since he came out. It is said that he suffered a great mental shock." Song Yunshen whispered to Jiang Xiandian and tapped his temple with his finger: "You need to take sedatives regularly. I'll give it up."

It took a lot of effort to take him out of the nursing home. As soon as he arrived in Dengzhou... no, as soon as he arrived in Zhangcun Town, his condition became worse and worse. He always said some incomprehensible things."

Jiang Xian put down his backpack and said calmly: "Oh? What did you say?"
Chapter completed!
