Chapter 18: Return to the Plateau

Since the agreement was reached, Jiangchen pulled out the pistol from his waist and handed it to Hu Er, and then asked Yan Ling'er to return the gun to Zhao Zhiguo. When Yan Ling'er heard about a hundred unwillingness, she shook her head like a rattle, and held the pistol and looked at it with her full reluctance. Jiangchen had no choice but to snatch it and handed it to Zhao Zhiguo.

Hu and Zhao put all the items in a small bag and stuffed them into their arms, opening their mouths and talking nonsense. There was a pile of items that were taller than a person in front of them, and they only used this cloth bag as big as a palm.

Seeing that Jiang Chen was staring at him with a surprised look, Hu Er took out a cloth bag and showed it to Jiang Chen. He saw that the cloth bag was made of. From the outside, the items inside were still so large, but the space was thrown away and it felt like it could hold a few people. From the outside, the cloth bag was still a cloth bag as big as a palm.

"This is Qiankun Bag! It is also a technology product. Let's go quickly! We only need about two hours to leave! It is safe to have only half an hour when the night retreats but the day has not yet arrived." Hu Er said quickly, guiding everyone to walk towards the top of the palace.

Everyone followed closely, and Yan Ling'er muttered behind: "Since you are here, no one is allowed to search for treasures. There must be something good left here."

Zhao Zhiguo smiled and said, "The real treasure here has long been transferred away by the Red Society. There is nothing more valuable left behind except the beads on the altar."

Yan Ling'er still refused to give up when she heard this. Her pretty eyes kept looking around, and she looked like she was picking up rags. She seemed to be unaware of it.

When I arrived at the palace, the sunlight had illuminated the entire Youlan City, the dark tall buildings and uneven ruins were all so novel.

Suddenly, a buzzing sound of Jiangchen's wings vibrating. Looking at the sound, he saw a flying insect the size of a golden fist flying towards him. Yan Ling'er's eyes were sharp. Seeing the insect, he immediately stretched out a finger, and a sword light flashed across the insect and slashed in half and fell down on the spot.

"No! This bug is terrible!" Hu Er shouted and was stunned on the spot, and the reminder was a little too late.

"What don't want it? It's just a bug. I'll kill you." Yan Ling'er glanced at the generals like a provocative look and said arrogantly.

Hu Er wanted to explain, but sighed and shook his head! Jiang Chen felt something was wrong. At this time, two wings vibrating sounds came from his ears. He turned to look and saw that the insects cut in half turned into two slightly smaller insects and flew up again. The insects flew to the faces of Jiang Chen and Yan Ling'er respectively, opened their fangs and bit them.

Yan Ling'er screamed in panic and beating: "What kind of ghost bug is this? How can't you kill it?"

"This is called the Gold-eating Worm. Legend has it that it is transformed from the corpse of the gods after their death. They eat everywhere and eat everything. They also have an amazing appetite. A Gold-eating Worm can eat a cow in a day."

"No!" Zhao Zhiguo shouted again, and Yan Ling'er could not bear the harassment of insects, and stretched out his palm to spew out a ball of fire. It was too late to stop it. The gold-eating insect was not afraid of the flames rushing into the flames. In an instant, two were born, two were born, and four was born. In a blink of an eye, a group of insects as big as half a fist was formed, surrounding Yan Ling'er in a blink of an eye.

Zhao Zhiguo explained: "You cannot use vein techniques to attack the gold-eating insect. The gold-eating insect can absorb vitality and reproduce in an instant. A female worm can produce one or two hundred larvae in the blink of an eye. The larvae can grow in a blink of an eye and then reproduce."

When Jiang Chen caught the gold-eating insect and squeezed it in his hand, he felt that the insect was not simple and did not kill him rashly. When he looked at Yan Ling'er again, he had no time to rescue him. Seeing that Yan Ling'er was surrounded by dense gold-eating insects, so many gold-eating insects could eat Yan Ling'er in a blink of an eye.

Fortunately, Yan Ling'er secretly carried a life-saving treasure on her disciple of a famous sect. Although she was embarrassed and not panicked, she untied a fiery red gourd the size of a palm from her waist at the stall surrounded by the insects. The energy gourd grew longer in the wind and instantly became larger than Yan Ling'er. The mouth of the gourd opened and instantly sucked the gold-eating insect into the gourd. The gourd turned into the size of a palm and returned to Yan Ling'er's hand.

Yan Ling'er was about to take a breath when he heard Hu Er say again: "What a pity that's in this baby."

"What a pity?"

"The gold-eating insect will eat everything, and you will be eaten by it in a short while."

Yan Ling'er was shocked and suddenly heard a crunching sound coming from the gourd. This was really eating the baby, and Yan Ling'er showed a heartache expression on her face.

"Take it away! Otherwise, the gold-eating insect will eat people in a while!" Jiang Chen walked up and patted her on the shoulder.

Yan Ling'er gritted her teeth and threw the treasure gourd far below the palace. She turned around and threw it into the arms of the minister and cried: "This is the only thought my father left to me. You asked me to throw it away. You compensate me, you compensate me..."

Jiangchen was a little confused by her actions, but he still wrapped his arms around her waist and reached out to pat her back: "Okay, I will compensate you, I will compensate you in the future."

"What did you say?" Yan Ling'er suddenly broke free from Jiang Chen's arms and burst into tears to laugh. Jiang Chen nodded fiercely. Suddenly, Yan Ling'er thought of something, pushed Jiang Chen away, her eyebrows stood up, and her face suddenly became cold: "Bah, I'm not ashamed, who asked you to compensate? What treasures do we Tongtian Sect have?" After that, he walked away and continued to look at the treasure gourd, but his mind had already flown out of the sky.

This was the first time Jiang Chen hugged a girl. He felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if he was nostalgic for the tenderness and smoothness left on his hands. Jiang Chen knew about Yan Ling'er's sudden changes. After all, they were people on two different paths, and there was a bit of a luxury to be friends.

The general sighed and thought to himself: I am afraid that we will separate after this ancient battlefield and disappear from now on!

"It's broken!" Suddenly, it was from Zhao Zhiguo's mouth, and he stared at Dongfang in fear.

Hu Er slapped his thigh, as if he had thought of something, and said anxiously: "I forgot that the gold-eating insect is a group of insects, let's go!"

As they were talking, waves of wings buzzing from the sky came from the sky, and the sound became clearer and louder. An infinitely long golden thread in the east spread from mid-air. Everyone looked closely and saw that the gold-eating insects filled the entire eastern sky. The gold-eating insect swarm was flying very fast, and in a blink of an eye it exceeded the range of sunlight.

Jiang Chen looked at the sky above Youlan City, a gold-eating insect circling, two gold-eating insects circling, and five gold-eating insects circling... In a blink of an eye, hundreds of gold-eating insects were flying in the sky. The flying gold-eating insects were like a sentinel to explore the way. As more and more gold-eating insects were flying, the more gold-eating insects gathered here. The invisible barrier outside could only block the night but could not stop the gold-eating insects.

"Go away, this place is densely packed with gold-eating insects during the day. As soon as the sun comes out, the gold-eating insects will spread throughout the battlefield. Everyone will be eaten, and no matter how high your cultivation level is, you can't escape." Hu Er said anxiously.

Zhao Zhiguo was stunned, looking at the sky and said, "This is the most terrifying place in the Great Wilderness Kingdom during the day. No matter you are a god or a Buddha, you can't escape it."

Seeing that Zhao Zhiguo looked like he was not concerned about his own affairs, Hu Eryi patted him hard on the head: "Why don't you leave quickly? Do you want to die?"

Zhao Zhiguo suddenly woke up, and it turned out that he was shocked just now.

Hu Er led everyone to the top of the semicircular tower of the palace. While busy plucking things from the Qiankun bag, he called out: "Zhiguo, you use a flamethrower to block the gold-eating insects. I will unlock the aircraft left by the group back then."

"Okay!" Zhao Zhiguo picked up an irregular iron box, and there was a bent iron tube next to the box. Zhao Zhiguo carried the iron box behind him, pressed the fire button with a "tick", picked up the iron tube with both hands and aimed it at the gold-eating insect in the air. The flames ejected from the iron tube were more than ten meters, driving the gold-eating insect to dozens of meters away.

"Why can this flame kill the gold-eating insect? I can't?" Yan Ling'er pouted and said with a pout.

Seeing that no one explained, she felt dissatisfied and acted to use pulse technique again. Hu Er was busy connecting several small iron boxes with red and green threads to the interface on the roof. He accidentally saw Yan Ling'er using pulse technique again, and quickly stopped him and said, "Grandma, I'm convinced you, Zhiguo quickly explain it to him! Otherwise, these hundreds of gold-eating insects could instantly turn into tens of thousands."

Zhao Zhiguo laughed helplessly and said, "This is the power of technology! The fire emitted from your hand is the vital energy emitted by the vein technique, which can be called immortal fire, and the flame emitted by the ejector is the truly burning flame, which can be called mortal fire. The gold-eating insect is not afraid of immortal fire, because the temperature of mortal fire can reach thousands or even tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, and they can be burned to ashes without having time to reproduce."

After hearing this, Yan Ling'er suddenly realized, and then squatted beside him and watched Hu Er crack the password. Not only Yan Ling'er, but also Jiang Chen really understood what science is. All the unknowns seemed to be able to be explained clearly by science.

Not long after, the flames of the injector became smaller and smaller, and Zhao Zhiguo suddenly shouted anxiously: "Hu Er, hurry up! The fuel is almost insufficient!"

At this moment, a huge buzzing sound suddenly sounded, and the huge sound was the sound of thousands of gold-eating insects shaking their wings together, and huge sound waves came.

"Quick! The gold-eating insect swarm is coming." Zhao Zhiguo's face changed drastically, and the boundless gold-eating insect swarm had surrounded half of the sky, less than one kilometer away from Youlan City.

At this moment, a few electronic sounds were heard, and then a crisp sound was heard on the roof of the building. A thin slit appeared at the top of the semicircular building. The roof of the building cracked to both sides along the thin slit, revealing an iron bird with two wings.

"This is the aircraft? Can he really fly by himself?" Li Yihuan looked unbelievable.

Hu Er opened the belly of the aircraft and there was a cabin door there. He opened the cabin door and was the first to get in. At this moment, the gold-eating insect swarm finally arrived and came to the sky above the palace.

"Ah, run quickly!" Zhao Zhiguo threw away the ejector in his hand. At this time, the flame of the ejector had become insignificant.

Zhao Zhiguo crawled into the cab, and hesitated and pulled Li Yihuan with one hand and Yan Ling'er with the other, and also entered the cabin. As soon as the cabin door was closed, the aircraft vibrated slightly and rushed to the sky with a whistle. It seemed that the speed was getting faster and faster, and it was much faster than Li Yihuan's leg skills.

The gold-eating insects rushed over frantically, and the outside of the aircraft was clattering. There were more than a dozen seats inside the aircraft. Beside the seats was a transparent hanging window, looking out along the aircraft's porthole. At this moment, the tall buildings below were as small as fists. They actually passed through the clouds and flew above the clouds. The gold-eating insect swarm had been thrown far behind, and were getting farther and farther away.

A ray of sunlight erupted from the east, instantly illuminating the entire sky. Looking through the porthole, the ground below them was still dawn. When Jiang Chen looked at this magical scene, he felt even more deeply impressed by science.

He was extremely excited and thought passionately: It is science that saved them, this is the power of science!
