Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Chapter 229: Underwater Yao Village, Zombie Kingdom
Jiang Hua looked at Jiang Chen: "Why, you haven't sensed it yet?"

Logically speaking, we should be only ten miles away from the ancient country of Kushigashi, or even less than that. The general should have been able to sense the ancient country of Kushigashi long ago.

However, Jiang Chen still has no response at all so far.

Could it be that this guy is lying to me?
Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "No, from what he said, it should be that the zombies of the ancient country of Ju Shi escaped, and then the Zhang family found those zombies, and then used some method to seal the ancient country of Ju Shi, making it difficult for the corpse qi to emit, so I can't sense it."

Jiang Hua thought about it and thought that this was a possibility.

So Jiang Hua said, "Okay, judging from the map, we shouldn't be far from this ancient country of Jushi. Let's find the place first."

Then the group headed along the Demon Lake towards the ancient country of Jushi.

After walking for more than half an hour, they arrived at a mountain.

Jiang Hua suddenly felt as if he had returned to Zhalong Mountain again.

There are dense primeval forests all around, poisonous miasma everywhere among the mountains, and there are even many snow-capped mountains.

"According to the route on the map, there are two ways to get to Kushigamora. The first way is to find a passage at the bottom of the lake. Go through that passage and keep going forward to find Kushigamora."

Jiang Hua looked at the map and said, "The other way is to cross the mountain in front of us and reach the other side of the mountain, where we can find the ancient kingdom of Jushi. However, this mountain is full of poisonous miasma. I'm afraid Wu Xie, Fatty, and Wen Jin can't withstand it. Also, this mountain is too high, so it will take a long time to cross it."

Wang Banyue asked, "So we have to pass through this underwater?"

Jiang Hua said: "Let's go down and find out where the passage at the bottom of the lake is. Then we can make a long-term plan."

Everyone agreed with Jiang Hua's opinion.

Jiang Hua said to Jiang Chen, "Let's go down and take a look."

The general nodded.

Then the two of them jumped into the lake together and kept diving.

The reason why Jiang Hua wanted to go down and explore with Jiang Chen was actually because he wanted to enter the ancient country of Jushi with Jiang Chen.

As for the other people?
Although Zhang Qiling is very powerful, the strength of the others is really not that good. Jiang Hua doesn't want to waste time and let them follow.

There's no point in them following him anyway. Jiang Hua came here to improve his strength, not to explore, so there's no need for them to follow him.

Jiang Hua knew that with Wu Xie's personality, he would definitely not agree with what he said, so Jiang Hua was too lazy to waste words.

So Jiang Hua and Jiang Chen dived all the way down.

Since both of them have the ability of night vision, they can see their surroundings clearly underwater.

Soon, the two reached the bottom of the lake. Jiang Hua stopped when he saw the buildings at the bottom of the lake.

Jiang Chen pointed downwards and a sound came out of his throat, which fell into Jiang Hua's ears through some special method.

"These houses seem to belong to the ancient country of Kushigashi!"

Jiang Chen's voice fell into Jiang Hua's ears.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hua swam downwards.

Soon, the two arrived in front of an underwater Yao village.

I don't know what treatment this house has had. It has been under water for such a long time, but it has not decayed at all.

Jiang Hua opened a door and swam in.

As soon as I entered, I saw two bodies sitting on chairs in the living room.

The two bodies were normal, no different from normal bodies, and there was no swelling.

However, the corpse qi in these two corpses was unusually heavy, much heavier than that of ordinary rice dumplings!

Could it be that this underwater Yao village is part of the ancient kingdom of Jushi?

Jiang Hua quickly approached the two bodies.

As a result, as soon as they got close, the two corpses opened their eyes and pounced towards Jiang Hua at a very fast speed, like fish in the water, without any resistance from the water at all.

Jiang Hua sneered.

He has the blood of the water unicorn. Who can compare with him in terms of underwater agility? Even those fish can't compare.

Jiang Hua raised his hand and pointed, and the water around them began to rotate. The two corpses seemed to be aggressive, but at this moment, they were easily trapped by the whirlpool created by the water. No matter how they struggled, it was useless.

This is the power of the Water Qilin bloodline. He is a god underwater!

He can control water!
The generals and officials following behind looked at the scene in disbelief...

He had never seen any human being with such powerful means, who could even control water?
Is that human being?
A man and a zombie left the house and began to look for a passage leading to the ancient country of Jushi nearby.

Soon, Jiang Hua and his companion found the passage. The design of the passage was quite clever. After they entered, they discovered that the clever design isolated the lake water outside. Although it was a bit humid inside, there was no lake water.

As soon as Jiang Chen came in, he said, "I can feel the terrifying corpse aura! This should be the ancient country of Jushi!"

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Jiang Hua felt a little excited.

Although he had known for a long time that this passage led to the ancient country of Jushi, Jiang Hua still breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the general's affirmation.

Since this place leads to the ancient country of Jushi, everything will be easy. Follow this passage to find the ancient country of Jushi, and then find the high-level black corpse stone, and then you can start absorbing the corpse qi here.

"Let's go."

Jiang Hua said, and then walked inside.

This passage was obviously dug by humans. It is not known whether it was dug by the Zhang family or by the people of the ancient country of Jushi.

But none of this matters to Jiang Hua.

What’s important is that this road leads to the ancient kingdom of Kushinagar.

That, then, is enough.

So Jiang Hua and Jiang Chen walked forward.

It is unknown how long this passage has been abandoned, and it is filled with unpleasant smells.

Jiang Hua knew that these smells might contain poisonous gases, and once people inhaled them, they would most likely be poisoned.

However, because Jiang Hua has a magical body, he can be immune to any poison gas, so these things have no effect on him.

Jiang Chen is the ancestor of all corpses and is almost immune to any poison. These poisons have no effect on him.

So, the two of them walked safely for a distance.

Finally, not long after, Jiang Hua discovered that the passage was becoming wider and wider.

Some corpses also appeared on the ground.

Because the bones had already rotted away, Jiang Hua had no interest in examining them.

However, after walking for a while, when Jiang Chen felt that the ancient country of Jushi was getting closer and closer, Jiang Hua heard a strange sound coming from the wall next to the passage.

Jiang Chen frowned and whispered, "There are zombies inside."

Jiang Hua said: "This place is not simple. There should be many basements. The zombies inside probably sensed the presence of a living person like me, so they became restless. But I will spare their lives for now. I will meet them again after I come out."

These zombies will not pose any danger to Jiang Hua, they just represent huge attributes.

Upon learning that there were zombies in these places, Jiang Hua knew that he had come to a zombie kingdom.

Then his corpse-binding talisman and corpse-fixing talisman will also play a huge role.

Jiang Hua and Jiang Chen continued to move forward.

More than ten minutes later, the two of them finally left the passage and pushed open the exit that had been covered by vines. Jiang Hua stood on the hillside of a mountain and looked down. He could only see a river running through the middle of the land below, with dense jungle on both sides of the river.

Jiang Hua has good eyesight and can vaguely see the buildings looming in the jungle.

"Is this the Kingdom of Kushigaki?"

Jiang Hua asked.
