Chapter 31 Is there really immortality in this world?
Chapter 31 Is there really immortality in this world?
"Everyone, don't worry, Shirley. Didn't you just say that the ancient city of Jingjue is guarded by two magnetic mountains? If they are magnetic mountains, then they may interfere with the watch compass."
Shirley Yang's eyes lit up: "You mean... we are already near Cishan?"
"That's right!"
Jiang Hua nodded.
Hearing this, the fat man was also surprised.
"Haha, that's great, what are we waiting for, let's go!"
Jiang Hua shook his head. "Although we have come to the vicinity of Cishan, we are still a long way from the Jingjue Ancient City. Besides, we have been walking all night, and the teacher's body must be a little exhausted. It is better to rest for a day before going on."
"Yes, Professor Chen's health is important!" Hu Bayi also said.
So, everyone set up camp on the spot.
Jiang Hua walked up to Professor Chen.
"Teacher, are you okay?"
Professor Chen looked tired and a little out of breath.
"I'm fine."
"Teacher, come and have a drink of water."
Jiang Hua handed over a kettle.
Professor Chen did not refuse and took the kettle and started drinking.
After drinking the water, Professor Chen felt warm all over and seemed to feel much better.
"Xiao Jiang, I'm much better now."
"Well, then, teacher, please have a good rest first."
Jiang Hua smiled and put the kettle away.
No one knew that he put some earth spirit fruit pulp in the kettle. Although it was only a little bit, it was just right for Professor Chen.
If Professor Chen were to eat the entire Earth Spirit Fruit, his body would definitely be too weak to be replenished, which would not be a good thing for him.
On the contrary, as it is now, Jiang Hua secretly adds the Earth Spirit Fruit little by little to slowly improve Professor Chen's body, which is the best thing for him.
At this time, Shirley Yang came over.
"Jiang Hua, how is Uncle Chen's health?"
"Don't worry, I secretly added some earth spirit fruit pulp to help the teacher improve his physical fitness. He will be fine."
Hearing this, Shirley Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
Professor Chen is a good friend of her father. The two have a very good relationship and are both very interested in the ancient Western culture.
So in Shirley Yang's heart, she also regards Professor Chen as a relative.
Jiang Hua sat on the ground and chatted with Shirley Yang.
Suddenly, he hesitated.
"Shirley, if we don't let Teacher, Lao Hu, Fatty and the others into the Jingjue Ancient City after we get there, do you think they will agree?"
Shirley Yang was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion: "Why? Uncle Chen has studied the culture of the Western Regions for his entire life, and now he is about to see the Jingjue Ancient City. Even if he risks his life, he wants to go in and take a look."
"If you tell him not to go in now, won't that cost him his life?"
"Is it because the ancient city of Jingjue is too dangerous?"
Jiang Hua sighed. He also knew this truth.
If we ask the teacher not to go in, it would be more painful than killing him. It is simply impossible.
"Yes, it's very dangerous in there!"
"I don't want teachers, Lao Hu and other irrelevant people to go in."
"It's enough for the two of us to go in!"
"What about Xiaoye?"
"She has her own purpose. Even without us, the organization behind her will go in."
Shirley Yang seemed to be thinking about something, and suddenly asked: "Then why did you go in? This matter has nothing to do with you."
Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Do you know? The mummies hanging in the Nine-story Demon Tower on Kunlun Glacier are all the ancestors of my Jiang family."
"What?" Shirley Yang asked in surprise.
"So, do you still think that I have nothing to do with the Jingjue Ancient City?"
Shirley Yang's heart moved, "Could it be that your Jiang family is also cursed? Is that why you want to go to the Jingjue Ancient City?"
"What do you think?" Jiang Hua smiled.
Shirley Yang didn't play tricks on him. She just pulled open his clothes and saw that there was no mark on the back of his shoulder.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing?"
Before Jiang Hua could react, Shirley Yang succeeded.
"It seems you are not cursed."
Shirley Yang's face was calm, as if nothing had happened just now.
"Do you know that you looked like a female hooligan just now?" Jiang Hua said speechlessly. This was the first time he had been stripped by a woman since he was a child. It was so embarrassing.
Shirley Yang took a sip of water and said nonchalantly, "Oh, so what?"
Jiang Hua: “…”
"I'm curious, if you're not cursed, why did you go into the Jingjue Ancient City? Didn't you say it was dangerous in there?"
"My Jiang family has a special bloodline, and this bloodline is related to the ancient city of Jingjue. I came here to pursue the secrets of the ancient times!"
Jiang Hua did not hide anything and told Shirley Yang the purpose.
Shirley Yang fell into deep thought and suddenly asked, "What is Ye Yixin doing for this?"
"she?"
Jiang Hua organized his words, "She probably wants immortality."
"Immortality?"
When Shirley Yang heard this word, her first reaction was to sneer, but since she met Jiang Hua, her worldview has changed dramatically.
She hesitated for a moment, "Does immortality really exist in this world?"
“It may exist, it may not exist.”
Jiang Hua looked up at the sky and said softly, "True immortality does not exist. I am not sure. If it does exist, then are those gods from ancient times dead?"
"But I know that there are treasures in this world that can prolong life. This is also what Ye Yixin's organization has been pursuing all their lives."
Shirley Yang was thoughtful.
……
After some rest, everyone continued their journey to the Jingjue Ancient City.
After walking for about half a day, a vague black dragon appeared in front of everyone.
"Look, that's the magnetic mountain described in the notebook!" Shirley Yang said, pointing at the black dragon.
From a distance, the two magnetic mountains look like an endless black dragon crawling on the earth.
After seeing these two magnetic mountains, everyone felt relieved.
They've finally arrived!
"Then let's leave quickly!"
"Ok!"
Although the Cishan Mountain seemed to be very close, the group still walked for most of the day before finally arriving at the foot of the mountain.
At this time, the moonlight was bright, covering the earth.
Like a thin layer of mist, it is bright and hazy!
Suddenly, the camel seemed to be frightened.
He refused to move forward.
The fat man asked in confusion: "Old man, what's wrong with your camel? Why won't it move?"
Anliman comforted the camels and said, "Well, they must have sensed something, so they stopped moving."
"What do you feel?"
“I don’t know about that.”
Jiang Hua's mind moved, "Everyone be careful, Lao Hu, Fatty, let's go ahead and explore the way."
Could it be that we have reached the plot of Black Snake?
But now Hao Aiguo is dead.
Could it be that another person died?
No matter what, he has to be careful.
Shirley Yang: "I'll go with you too."
Several people walked slowly forward with flashlights.
At the foot of the mountain, Jiang Hua saw several corpses.
"Look, there's a dead body."
"I'll go take a look." The fat man couldn't help but want to check it out.
"Fatty, don't go!"
Jiang Hua shouted, stopping the fat man's actions.
If there really was a black snake ahead, the fat man would definitely be bitten by the black snake if he went over rashly.
This black snake is extremely poisonous.
Seal your throat at the sight of blood!
In the original book, after Hao Aiguo was bitten by a black snake, he only lasted a few seconds before he died.
"What's wrong?" the fat man asked in confusion.
Jiang Hua did not explain and took out a green jade pendant from his body.
Red Dragon Order!
He secretly input his true energy, and an invisible wave was generated. The fat man felt a chill all over his body, as if he sensed something.
As soon as the red dragon's pressure was activated, several black snakes suddenly emerged from the corpses in front.
