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

Chapter 269: Big Demon, Ghost Sound

"Not bad!"

Hou Tu nodded. She was very curious: "I don't know what's going on. These little things are only this size. Logically, they shouldn't have evil spirits in their bodies. Why do these little flying insects we see have evil spirits?"

Jiang Hua couldn't help but nodded.

It is exactly as Hou Tu said.

Generally speaking, evil spirits can only be born from monsters or animals and plants that have become spirits. Regardless of whether it is these corpse flies, or the locusts and swifts before, they cannot be spirits, let alone monsters.

Then, it is impossible for there to be evil spirits in their bodies.

Even if there are things, or they stay in a place with strong demonic energy for a long time, it is impossible for them to have demonic energy in their bodies after they leave that place and before they become demons.

Those evil spirits will dissipate in a very short time.

But Jiang Hua could feel that the evil spirit was born from the bodies of these corpse flies!

This seems a bit strange.

Hou Tu thought for a while and said, "I guess there is more than one big demon here, or in other words, these flying insects all have a mother body, and that mother body has already become a demon. After producing these insects, it will be nurtured in the nest with demonic energy for a period of time. After these insects are born, they will have demonic energy in their bodies."

"Big demon?"

Jiang Hua frowned. Does that mean that there might be more than three big monsters in this place?

Jiang Hua couldn't help but feel eager to try it out.

A big demon that can give birth to so much demonic energy must be very powerful, with strong demonic energy in its body. If you can absorb their demonic energy, your own attributes will definitely skyrocket!

It seems that there are other gains from this trip to Dixian Village.

This Earth Fairy Village is truly a blessed place!
"Grandma, Grandpa Jiang, you two should stop chatting. These ghosts are here. We have been bitten several times. I don't know if these things are poisonous. If they are poisonous, I will have to stay here!"

When Fatty Wang saw Jiang Hua and Hou Tu still chatting, he suddenly felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Jiang Hua raised his eyebrows, took out the Beak of Jingwei, and got rid of all the corpse flies in a blink of an eye. He also added a few hundred points of attributes and increased the progress of refining the demon relics by 2%.

These corpse flies posed no threat to Jiang Hua at all. Their appearance in front of Jiang Hua was simply a gift to Jiang Hua. Jiang Hua actually wished there were more of them.

However, there are obviously not that many corpse flies.

Jiang Hua thought to himself that he must find the mother bodies of corpse flies, locusts and golden swifts by then, so that he could obtain a large number of attributes and increase the progress of refining the demon relics.

After Jiang Hua dealt with the corpse flies, he looked at the tomb door on the opposite stone wall and said, "Okay, let's go to the underground palace quickly."

So, the group of people rowed, some used the Flying Tiger Claw, and finally reached the shore after a few minutes. They climbed into the tomb one by one.

After landing again, everyone felt very grounded.

Fatty Wang looked at Jiang Hua and said, "Master Jiang, what on earth is that thing of yours? How come it's so powerful? Can it fly by itself?"

Hu Bayi said, "Fatty, are you stupid? Didn't I say that it was an ancient artifact? How could it not be powerful? I heard that this artifact has a spirit, it's very magical."

Fatty Wang couldn't help but marvel at it.

After Jiang Hua put away the Jingwei Beak, he looked around and said, "This should be the underground palace of the Black Sheep King. Let's look around to see if we can find the coffin of the Black Sheep King."

Although Jiang Hua knew that it was unlikely to find the body of the Black Sheep King, he still wanted to give it a try.

According to the original novel, the body of King Wuyang had already been used by Feng Shigu, so it is basically impossible to find the body of King Wuyang in the underground palace of King Wuyang.

I couldn't even find any good treasures.

After all, this place had long been turned upside down by Feng Shigu and his gang.

However, for Jiang Hua, apart from some specific treasures, he really doesn't care about the others.

For him, as long as he could encounter some powerful zongzi or monster, that would be a good thing and could increase a lot of three-dimensional attributes.

And Jiang Hua remembered that there were quite a few delicious rice dumplings here.

So, the group started to walk inside.

After walking for a while, Yin Nanfeng frowned and stopped: "Did you hear a very strange female voice?"

"no!"

Fatty Wang said immediately.

But the youngest sister said, "I heard it!"

"I heard it too."

Chen Wenjin added.

However, Hu Bayi and others frowned because they didn't hear it.

Jiang Hua also stopped and listened carefully, but he didn't hear anything either, so he looked at Hou Tu: "Did you hear it?"

Hou Tu nodded. Jiang Hua looked at everyone and found that all the men did not hear the strange female voice that Yin Nanfeng mentioned, only women could hear it!

What's happening here?
Jiang Hua thought about it. In the original book, it seemed that Xueli Yang also heard a strange woman’s voice. Could it be that Master Guanshan was causing trouble?
Master Guanshan is a strange creature in Coffin Gorge, or you can say she is a zongzi.

There was a sound coming from her stomach.

Unexpectedly, this sound can only be heard by women.

Jiang Hua said: "Can we tell from which direction the sound is coming from by the sound?"

Jiang Hua knew that since this kind of sound appeared, it meant that the Earth Immortal Village they were looking for was almost there!

The first thing to do is to find the tomb where the sound comes from.

Yin Nanfeng listened for a while and was about to speak when Hou Tu said, "Follow me."

Having said that, she headed in a certain direction.

This made Yin Nanfeng very unhappy.

But when he thought that this was Hou Tu, he had to endure it even if he was unhappy, so he could only follow behind everyone.

Soon, Jiang Hua and others, led by Hou Tu, arrived at a tomb chamber.

There are two very strange coffins in this tomb chamber, and there are also strange Tang Dynasty murals around it.

"Why are there Tang Dynasty murals here?"

Professor Sun said strangely.

After all, he is an archaeologist, so he can naturally tell at a glance which dynasty these murals belong to based on their style.

Fatty Wang said, "Old man Sun, why do you care what dynasty this thing is from? We can't take it out and take it back. In my opinion, we should open the two coffins and see what good things are inside. I'm so poor all the way here, and I don't have any treasures. The Black Sheep King is also very poor, and he doesn't have any burial objects or anything."

This left Professor Sun speechless.

Fortunately, he is not the kind of person like Professor Chen. He doesn't want to protect any cultural relics, so he didn't say anything.

Otherwise, if it were Professor Chen, Fatty Wang would have to give him a hard time.

Jiang Hua said, "It's strange that there are good treasures here. Don't you remember Feng Xuewu's suicide note? The tomb of the Black Sheep King was dug up by Guanshan Taibao a long time ago. Do you think Guanshan Taibao is a good thing? They are even more ruthless than the tomb robbers. The tomb robbers at least follow the rules and only take one thing from the tomb."

Fatty Wang suddenly realized what was going on, and then responded: "Hey, I said, this sounds like a compliment to us, but why do I feel that it is so mean."

Hu Bayi also had a strange look on his face.

Jiang Hua said: "That's not the case. I'm overthinking it."

Then, he looked at the murals around him and said calmly, "As Fatty said, it's just a mural. There's no need to make a fuss. What we need to do now is to find the exit and then find the Earth Immortal Village."

Jiang Hua remembered that there was a mechanism here. After opening the mechanism, there was a soldier-hiding gorge behind it. Inside the soldier-hiding gorge were coffins of all sizes. One had to find the exit to get out, and then there was the Dixian Village.

So, the Dixian Village is right in front of us.

Everyone still listened to Jiang Hua's words, so they came to one of the coffins and found that there were a lot of strange words engraved on the coffin.

"What is this?"

Hu Bayi asked curiously.

Jiang Hua said: "I'll have to ask Professor Sun what the rest of Guanshan Zhimi Fu says."

These characters were rare and Hu Bayi and the others could not understand them at all.

Professor Sun was an expert in ancient Chinese characters. Besides, this Guanshan Zhimi Fu was written by Guanshan Taibao, so he was the only one who could understand it.

Everyone looked at Professor Sun.

Professor Sun was also unambiguous. He came to the coffin, looked at it carefully, and then said: "This is indeed the Guanshan Zhimi Fu."

He looked at Jiang Hua with some doubt.

Jiang Hua couldn't understand the words, but he knew that it was Guanshan Zhimi Fu.

A bit awesome!

Fatty Wang was impatient, so he quickly asked, "Then tell me, what does it say? Does it tell us what to do next?"

Professor Sun looked at it carefully and nodded: "It does tell us what to do to open the mechanism here."

"How to do?"

Hu Bayi asked.

"Burned!"

Professor Sun said.
