Unfortunately, one thing falls down another. The fire ladybug itself is afraid of the existence of fire, so after it falls into the water, it will directly shut down the fire or even die.
After waiting for a while, there was no movement on the water surface. Zhao Shucheng came out of the water and saw that there was no trace of the fire ladybug. He knew that the fire ladybug had gone back.
"Everyone hurry up and get ashore!"
When they heard Zhao Shucheng's request, although they were a little confused, they hurriedly walked towards the shore. After crossing the underground river, everyone collapsed by the river, looking at the cave before, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Finally survived."
While the archaeological team members were still in shock, they also burst into laughter.
Zhao Shucheng looked at the riverside and said, "You are too happy too early, stay away from the shore, and the danger has not passed yet."
As Zhao Shucheng finished speaking, he heard ripples on the water surface, followed by a huge wave, and saw a giant beast that had never been seen before floating out of the water.
"What's this big thing?"
Professor Chen pointed to the giant beast in shock and said, "This is a prehistoric king salamander, this creature should have been extinct long ago."
The others saw the giant beast swim towards them and quickly fled behind.
Zhao Shucheng knew that it was useless to just escape. Such a giant beast was more than ten meters long, and his tongue was more than two meters long. It was full of attack power. He would not give up chasing when he saw the prey.
Zhao Shucheng looked around and found that the weapon he could use to deal with the Overlord Salamander was the only engineer shovel in his hand. In the end, he could only helplessly take the engineer shovel and greet him.
When Hu Bayi saw that Zhao Shucheng did not retreat but advanced, he knew that it was useless to escape, so he directly snatched the submachine gun from the big man and shot at the Overlord Salamander.
Unfortunately, this Overlord Salamander seemed to be wearing a bulletproof vest. The bullet hit it like it was tickling, and it could not stop him from approaching.
In the end, Zhao Shucheng stood in front of the Overlord Salamander, used the engineer shovel as a hammer, and slapped the shovel hard on the top of the Overlord Salamander's head, which made the Overlord Salamander dizzy for a few seconds.
Zhao Shucheng had thought of using a shovel to shovel the body of the Overlord Salamander, but the bullet could not penetrate the attack. Zhao Shucheng did not think that this engineer shovel could break the defense instead.
Therefore, Zhao Shucheng can only use heavy weapons to attack. Since he cannot break the defense, he can use dark force to directly attack the organs in his body through the skin of the Overlord Salamander.
This overlord salamander has lived in this underground river for so many years. Because it has no natural enemies or is enough to compete with the existence of organisms, its body is naturally much weaker. Therefore, fighting cattle across the mountain in Zhao Shucheng is a heavy blow to it.
Zhao Shucheng actually thought of using the Golden Light Curse to deal with it directly, but thinking that this Overlord Salamander can be said to be a prehistoric creature, and perhaps it is still the only one left, and it is impossible to let it become extinct in his own hands.
Although this practitioner does not pay much attention to cause and effect, the sin of extermination of clans is not something that ordinary people can bear. Therefore, whether it is facing the fire bug or the overlord salamander, Zhao Shucheng did not choose to kill them all.
Fortunately, the Overlord Salamander seemed to have passed by Zhao Shucheng's attack just now. The subsequent attacks made it realize that the people in front of him were difficult to deal with, so after he recovered, he turned around and left.
Zhao Shucheng was still a little worried, so he took out a sucking talisman from his waterproof backpack and lit it, threw it on the ground, and then continued to walk towards Hu Bayi and the others.
The people from the archaeological team looked at Zhao Shucheng as if they were looking at aliens, and they wanted to ask something, but they didn't know how to speak.
Hu Bayi didn't have so much scruples and asked directly: "Master Zhao, you are..."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "This kind of giant beast is generally rough and thick in skin. Unless it is a sharp blade of magic weapons, it cannot break the skin. But as the saying goes, no one is perfect, there is no perfect thing in the world. The skin is tough, but it is very fragile inside. Just now, hitting it with a shovel surface is almost the same as the attack of an ancient mace or an octagonal hammer. If it is injured internally, it will naturally escape."
As he said that, Zhao Shucheng suddenly frowned and said, "I don't have time to chat. Although the overlord salamander retreated, the firefly that had not been chased by the fire just now alarmed the firefly that had not been chased by before. Everyone left quickly, I'll block here for a while."
Although the others were a little worried about whether Zhao Shucheng could deal with it himself, they saw the fire bug that had already flown out of the cave, and knew that it was not the time to rush to run towards the previous ice cave.
Zhao Shucheng sighed helplessly and re-exhausted his golden light spell to block the entrance to the ice cave. I don’t know if the fire ladybugs were all alarmed or just part of it. If the fire ladybugs died here, he would have committed a great sin.
After all, this fire ladybug and the Overlord Salamander can be said to be in a mutually beneficial relationship, and the fire ladybug can also be said to be the food and energy source of the Overlord Salamander. If the fire ladybug here dies, the Overlord Salamander has no food and energy supply, he is afraid he will die soon.
The temperature here is not low in the underground river, and the Overlord Salamander can survive, but if you go out for food, I am afraid that the Overlord Salamander will be frozen to death if you can't get out of the glacier.
Zhao Shucheng once again saw the fireworks covered on the Golden Light Curse, but this time there were particularly many, almost covering the entire hole.
Fortunately, after burning for a while, the fire ladybug seemed to have noticed that it was a mountain wall, so she did not continue to hit. Instead, she wandered around the river and returned to the nine-story demon building.
Zhao Shucheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was really worried that the fire ladybug would never stop. Now it seems that the result is pretty good.
When Zhao Shucheng came to the bottom of the valley below the ice cave, he saw that the archaeological team was already crawling towards the top with the help of Hu Bayi, the big man and others.
Zhao Shucheng did not rush to go up first. Instead, he looked around and confirmed that the fire ladybug really didn't catch up, so he climbed up with the help of a mountain rope.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! I don’t know if there are too many killings today, or because of the blizzard, or because of many people climbing before. When Zhao Shucheng was halfway through, he suddenly felt that the rope in his hand was a little light, and he was even falling down.
Zhao Shucheng didn't care about so many, so he shoveled down at the glacier wall with the engineer shovel, hoping to stop the falling trend. But what Zhao Shucheng didn't expect was that when the engineer shovel collided with the mountain wall, it suddenly broke from the middle, and Zhao Shucheng had only one handle left in his hand.
Fortunately, Zhao Shucheng was quick-eyed and quickly grabbed another rope that was blown by the wind, so that he could avoid the risk of falling off the cliff.
Hu Bayi and the others also grabbed the rope nervously and shouted: "Zhao Shucheng, hold on. The rope just now broke, you must be careful."
"I got it, you guys hold it back, I'll go up!"
After saying that, Zhao Shucheng climbed on the mountain wall in three steps and two steps. He soon got on the top and felt a biting cold. It was really colder on the top than below, and there were gusts of wind blowing.
Shortly after Zhao Shucheng came up, he heard a crackling sound on the ice.
Zhao Shucheng's face changed and he said to everyone: "Get out of this neighborhood quickly, the glacier is about to collapse."
Everyone noticed something was wrong. When they heard Zhao Shucheng say this, they quickly left. Shortly after they left, the glaciers near the ice cave began to decompose and fell downwards, which even caused a small-scale landslide.
The others didn't care too much, and they didn't even have time to pack up the equipment in the temporary camp, so they quickly fled to the distance. After finally getting away from the avalanche, they looked back and saw that the ice cave had been completely buried by ice and snow. If everyone hadn't really seen the nine-story demon tower below just now, it would be hard to believe that there was such a magical ancient tomb below.
Professor Chen looked at the snow-covered place with some regret and said, "The nine-story demon building that should have shocked the archaeological world, but he didn't expect to sleep in this glacier forever."
Zhao Shucheng said: 'Professor Chen, this may be a good thing. This time we came in a hurry, the climate and weather were not suitable, and many equipment were not too late to carry. We couldn't handle it just the fire ladybug or the overlord salamander, let alone other possible dangers in the ancient tombs.'
"But as long as people are alive, there is still hope. This time we pass by here and know the specific location. Perhaps when an appropriate time in the future, this location can be excavated, we can still revisit the old place. At that time, whether it is the fire bug or the tyrant salamander, it is no longer a danger we fear, but may become a major discovery in the archaeological world. Even the tyrant salamander will become a member of our zoo, allowing us to develop and grow protectively and reproduce the style of the prehistoric tyrant salamander."
Zhao Shucheng actually thinks this way, just like Jurassic Park can attract many tourists. If you really have the opportunity to catch the Overlord Salamander, you may not be able to build a huge zoo on the glacier, so that Kunlun Mountain can also develop differently.
Of course, Zhao Shucheng wanted to know even more that this overlord salamander could survive the mass extinction 200 million years ago, and even passed on for 200 million years. There must be many secrets worth exploring by himself.
For example, whether this overlord salamander lived 200 million years ago to the present, or the offspring of the ethnic group, and why it can survive underground in the glaciers for so many years, are all questions worth discussing.
After returning to the army's garrison, the group rested for a while. Shirley Yang also found clues to Jingjue Ancient City based on the records in the notebook, and prepared to continue to set out to the desert to find Jingjue Ancient City.
After fighting with the Overlord Salamander before, Zhao Shucheng realized that his previous preparations were not enough. He was just going to the tomb to explore, but did not prepare the corresponding weapons. After all, the engineer shovel was not a special weapon, and it collapsed with a little force.
When Zhao Shucheng was packing his things, he bought a scimitar from the homes of nearby herders, and finally had a self-defense weapon. However, when he got on the train, Zhao Shucheng was always worried that he would not be able to take the train. Unexpectedly, no one stopped him. He couldn't help but ask Hu Bayi curiously, and then he realized that there were no regulations on carrying knives in this era.
This made Zhao Shucheng feel a little regretful. If he had known it earlier, he would have been looking for a handy weapon in the capital, rather than coming here like this.
A few days later, the group came from the glacier to a small town in the Taklamakan Desert by train and car.
Everyone will rest for two days again, and then find a local person familiar with the desert environment as a guide to enter the Taklamakan Desert.
After the archaeological team found the local leader and suggested that they wanted to find a local guide, Zhao Ke was also a little embarrassed.
It was a coincidence that Zhao Shucheng and the others came here. This place was about to enter the wind season every year, and no guide dared to enter the desert at this time. You should know that in the wind season, it is not good to enter the desert. If you think about it, you will lose your direction and fall into the desert.
The person brought by Section Chief Zhao suddenly spoke, "Yes, Section Chief Zhao, An Liman. It is known as the living map in the desert, everyone in the town knows it. This old man is good at raising camels, and the children in our town know it. When you enter the desert, bring three things, water, camels, An Liman."
“Isn’t this the person we are looking for?”
Section Chief Zhao said in a little embarrassedly: "It's hard to find a person."
"What, are there any difficulties?"
Zhao Ke said: "Not that, it's just that An Liman is now being locked in the police station because of some problems."
It turned out that An Liman had followed a group of foreigners into the desert before, but he didn't expect to throw the person into the desert and ran back by himself.
Professor Chen didn't care about An Liman's return alone. Since An Liman was the best guide, it was the talent they needed. So the group came to the police station and saw An Liman and said that they would enter the desert.
Hu Bayi saw the pendant hanging around An Li's neck. Coincidentally, he had seen this pendant in the capital before, and it was sold to a foreigner, but he didn't expect to see it again here.
Just when An Liman was still hesitating, Shirley Yang said directly: "As long as you are willing to take us into the desert, you can do as much as possible."
After hearing this, An Liman knew that he was not here to pursue what he had come back last time, so he stood up and asked, "Then if I take them into the desert, will you return the camel to me?"
Director Wang said without hesitation after hearing this: "Of course, why would you take them into the desert without camels?" To be honest, Director Wang had long wanted to continue to detain An Liman and also wanted to feed him camels. He did nothing every day, and just feed An Liman to the camels, and even their police station paid a lot of money for fodder.
When An Liman heard that his camel could be taken back, he smiled happily and said, "Okay, no problem. Friends, friends!"
Hu Bayi asked with some concern: "It's the wind season now, are you sure you can take us into the desert?"
An Li said indifferently: "Wind Season? I can enter the desert all year round, and I don't know what wind season is."
