When Hu Bayi came to the Kunlun Glacier to carry out a mission, he was besieged by a pack of wolves and attacked by fire beetles, and their class suffered heavy losses.
If they had not met an iron rod lama who once served a living Buddha on the road, and if this lama had not traveled with them and helped them, Hu Bayi might not have been able to come back alive.
The so-called Iron Rod Lama refers to the temple deacon who is responsible for maintaining the rules and regulations of the monastic community, also known as Gegui.
The iron rod lama was nearly eighty years old, but he could still carry an iron rod as thick as his arm. He traveled through mountains and rivers with soldiers like Hu Bayi and helped them resist the attacks of wolves. He smashed the heads of wild wolves with an iron rod. His skills were obviously far superior to those of ordinary people.
At that time, Hu Bayi didn't know the existence of extraordinary people. He just thought that the lama was practicing some secret qigong from the temple. After learning about the existence of extraordinary people, Hu Bayi figured out that the iron rod lama he knew that year turned out to be an extraordinary person.
Liao Zhong arranged for someone to pick them up at the airport, and he and Chen Duo waited for them at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. It was not that he did not want to pick up Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi.
But he had to accompany Chen Duo, and Chen Duo was a holy child with a Gu body, carrying a primitive Gu poison that was difficult to control in his body, so Liao Zhong always tried his best to avoid Chen Duo from appearing in densely populated places.
So he could only send someone to pick up Hu Bayi and Hu Xiuwu.
Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi took a bus that goes anywhere and arrived at the foot of the glacier.
Nadutong set up a tent camp at the foot of the mountain, with several large trucks and RVs parked in the camp.
Many Nadutong employees were working in the camp. Someone was carrying the pale corpse of a monster with a cat head and a human body into a makeshift laboratory in the camp.
When they opened the door curtain, Hu Bayi and Hu Xiuwu saw that there were insects inside that looked like ladybugs but emitted cold light like fireflies.
When Hu Bayi saw the bug, he exclaimed, "Firebug!"
Hu Xiuwu was a little surprised: "Brother, you know this thing."
"I encountered this thing on the Kunlun Glacier when I was in the army. Later, I saw it in the Jingjue Ancient City. This bug can turn into a fireball. As long as it pounces on a person, it can burn the person to ashes in an instant."
Hu Xiuwu also remembered that Hu Bayi had mentioned to him about this kind of insect that could burn people to ashes when they were in Sijiu City.
The person who brought them here smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Brother Hu is also well-informed. This fire beetle is called the Dapu ghost beetle in Tibet."
"This bug has two forms. One is the 'boundless fire' form that Brother Hu mentioned, which can burn people to ashes. The other is the 'Naiqiong Divine Ice' form, which can instantly freeze people who come into contact with it into ice sculptures and then shatter them into ice dust."
"The Dap Ghost Bug feeds on negative energy and resentment, so the Samsara Sect often uses it to protect tombs and corpses."
While chatting, the old man took Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi to find Liao Zhong and Chen Duo in a tent in the camp.
They hadn't seen each other for nearly a year, but Liao Zhong was still the same, kind-hearted but harsh-tongued:
"Haha, now that you're here, Bayi, this operation will be easier."
Hu Bayi could only laugh it off along with Liao Zhong and avoid the topic.
Hu Xiuwu looked at the thin and slender figure next to Liao Zhong. Seeing that Hu Xiuwu had been looking at her, she greeted Hu Xiuwu according to the etiquette she learned in the bunker:
"Hello, my name is Chen Duo."
Chapter 101 Evil Luohai City
Chen Duo was wearing a brown work suit from Naduotong, with a green tight-fitting isolation suit underneath to prevent the poison in her body from escaping. She also had earrings on her ears and two patches on her forehead to monitor her emotions.
She looked much better than the last time we met, and her eyes were no longer as empty as last time. She had her own emotions and people she cared about, and had become like a human being.
Hu Xiuwu was sincerely happy for Chen Duo's change, and imitated Chen Duo and greeted her with a smile, as if completing a ritual:
"Hello, Chen Duo, my name is Hu Xiuwu."
Chen Duo was also deeply impressed by Hu Xiuwu, because Hu Xiuwu gave her the same feeling as the 49 children who were used to make Gu back then. She could also feel that Hu Xiuwu was of the same kind as her.
They are all aliens who do not belong to this world, just passers-by in the mortal world.
The difference between the two is that Wu Dechang is older than Liao Zhongjin, so Hu Xiuwu is closer to the world of mortals than Chen Duo, and has more ties with this world.
Dididi,
The watch on Liao Zhong's wrist that monitored Chen Duo's emotions sounded an alarm, indicating that Chen Duo was actually not as calm as she appeared.
Liao Zhong turned off the alarm on his watch with a complicated expression. He treated Chen Duo as his own daughter. Although Liao Zhong also hoped that Chen Duo could make real friends like a normal child, he felt unhappy when a wild boar really came to eat his cabbage.
Even though he knew Hu Xiuwu and liked the child very much before and understood that Hu Xiuwu was a good child, it was the same.
The old father Liao Zhong immediately walked forward casually and stood between Hu Xiuwu and Chen Duo.
Liao Zhong looked at Hu Xiuwu with seven parts of vigilance and three parts of warning, and then said to Hu Bayi;
"It's getting late today. Let Lao Zhao take you to the tent to rest first. We will set off for Eluohai City tomorrow."
Liao Zhong said this under the scorching sun.
Then he called Lao Zhao, who had just brought them here and was now watching the fun silently on the sidelines, and asked him to take Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi to the tent prepared for them to rest.
Old Zhao accepted the order with a smile and took Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi to rest.
Hu Bayi wanted to chat a few more words, but was pushed out of the tent by Liao Zhong.
A night of silence,
The next day, Liao Zhong took them out early and headed for Eluohai City.
Their exploration of the Eluohai City this time was a secret operation, ostensibly under the guise of clearing out the harmful monsters around the Kunlun Glacier. Even among the employees who knew everything in the camp, not all of them knew the real purpose of the operation.
During this period, the Snow Mile and Sin-Eater Baru around their camp had been dealt with by Nadutong. Even the scattered Dapu ghost insects nearby and the one-eyed wolf king who had caused a lot of trouble to Hu Bayi and his team in the past were all dealt with by them.
They have almost cleaned up the area around here. If they delay any further, it might attract the attention of other forces in the alien world.
Therefore, in order to keep a low profile and to complete the mission as soon as possible, only Liao Zhong, Chen Duo, Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi traveled light to Eluohai City.
On the way to Eluohai City, Liao Zhong introduced the situation of the Samsara Sect and Eluohai City to Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi through the headphones.
Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi were both insiders, so Liao Zhong did not try to hide anything and told the truth directly:
"We were assisted in this operation by a Tibetan monk who was gifted with singing songs. He dictated to us the long narrative poem hidden in his soul."
"Thousands of years ago, there was a country called Demon Country on the snowy plains of Tibet. Their leader was called Ghost Mother. Ghost Mother led the entire Demon Country to believe in the snake god and found two remains of the snake god in the Sengge Nanyun Cave. The divine eyes that can make people immortal and reborn are what we call the Zhuchen Pearl."
"There is another piece of debris that we haven't found yet. In the long poem, it is called the Demon Brain. It is said that it can open the kingdom of the snake god and allow believers to reincarnate into the kingdom of the snake god. Legend has it that as long as one can be reincarnated into the world of the snake god, they can gain eternal life."
"The Demonic Kingdom captured many people alive on the snowy plains and held a large-scale living sacrifice in the Eluohai City in an attempt to exchange for the opportunity to be reborn in the Kingdom of the Snake God."
"Relying on the power of the Zhuochen Pearl, the Demon Kingdom has assembled an organized army of aliens. The leader of the Demon Kingdom, the Ghost Mother, also possesses the Unbounded Demon Eye, which allows her to communicate with the Kingdom of the Snake God and summon the Serpent God's servants, the Dapu Ghost Worm and the Jingjian Ahan (Giant-eyed Black Snake)."
"Such a force is a terrifying force even in modern times, let alone in the Snow Plains at that time. The Demon Kingdom used cruel means to rule the Snow Plains and ravaged the Tibetan countries with force. It's not that no country resisted, but they were all defeated by the Demon Kingdom, and the captives became sacrifices to the Snake God."
Liao Zhong's tone suddenly became serious. The records of the Demonic Kingdom showed them the terrifying power of the Zhuchen Pearl, a power that could influence the world situation.
"It was not until the appearance of the World Pearl King that everything changed. He and Master Padmasambhava united with other forces on the snowy plains to form a huge coalition army and sent people to steal the Zhuchen Pearl."
"Overnight, the offensive and defensive positions changed, the strength and weakness reversed, King Gesar led the mighty army (coalition forces) to break through the Elahai City, and Guru Padmasambhava caused the water from the Fairy Lake to flow back into the Elahai City, and the demon country was destroyed."
"During the war, the Zhuchen Pearl drifted to the Central Plains, and somehow ended up in the hands of Wu Ding, the emperor of the Shang Dynasty. You all know what happened next."
King Xian obtained the Zhuchen Pearl and became a fan of the Snake God. He not only knew about it but also saw it with his own eyes.
Hu Xiuwu thought to himself.
None of them were ordinary people and they were very fast on their feet. In addition, Liao Zhong and Chen Duo had already figured out the way to Eluohai City during this period of time. Liao Zhong led them across the wind-eroded lake and arrived at Eluohai City before the sun set.
The city of Eluohai stands on the top of the mountain, like a black crown of a snowy mountain. It looks solemn and majestic from afar. Even Hu Xiuwu, who had witnessed the prosperity of Chang'an, had to admit that this city is absolutely worthy of the title of the most powerful city in the world.
There is no telling how much labor and gold and silver were spent to build such a magnificent city on the top of the snowy mountain. Just from this city, one can tell the extent of the Demon Kingdom's oppression of its surrounding areas.
While Hu Bayi was looking at the Eluohai City, he subconsciously calculated and studied the surrounding Feng Shui in his mind. Even Mr. Hui Er couldn't help but come out of Hu Bayi's body to observe this unparalleled spectacle.
Hu Xiuwu looked at the magnificent black city in the snow mist and said, "Uncle Liao, didn't you say that the Eluohai City was once breached by the Snowfield Allied Forces? How come it looks like there is nothing damaged?"
Liao Zhong stood behind Chen Duo, looking at the evil Luo Haicheng with a serious expression, and slowly exhaled a puff of white mist from his mouth:
"You'll know once you get in."
Everyone entered the Eluohai City. The layout of the city was like a honeycomb, but the strange thing was that everything in the city seemed to be frozen in time.
The candlelight was burning, the food on the table was fresh and delicious, and there were flowers in the vase that were picked by someone unknown, but they were still gorgeous and tempting.
Hu Xiuwu walked into the slaughterhouse next door and touched the bowl of broth on the table.
It's still hot.
Even the knowledgeable Mr. Hui Er was stunned at this time, and kept saying "incredible, unbelievable".
What kind of power can make a city solidify in time like amber?
Is this something that an extraordinary person can do? Is there really a God in this world?
"We have thoroughly checked the city and there is no danger."
"But this city is too magical, a magic that is completely incomprehensible. Before this, we could not imagine that the power of the Inhumans could achieve this."
"For the sake of caution, we did not arrange for anyone to be stationed in the city. We only placed guards and sentries around the city."
Liao Zhong saw that everyone had already noticed the magic of the Eluohai City, but he still explained it seriously.
In fact, this is no longer the original Eluohai City. After King Gesar destroyed the Demon Kingdom, a small number of the remnants of the Demon Kingdom formed the Samsara Sect.
These people returned to the Eluohai City and dug out the eyes and brain of the first generation ghost mother Nian Xiong Hei Yan, using them as sacrifices to connect to the power of the snake god demon brain.
Then he turned the virtual into reality and summoned out the evil sea city that existed in the ghost mother's memory.
This kind of thing that had only been heard of in myths and legends in the past was now unfolding before them in reality.
Chapter 102: Ghost Tomb Changes
Turn the virtual into the real and mediate the creation.
The remaining remains alone have such power. It is hard to imagine how powerful the snake god was when he was alive.
No wonder King Xian was obsessed with Him for his entire life just because he saw His former shadow in the inner scene. He even tried to become a star chaser and become like his idol after his death.
Liao Zhong looked at Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi who were stunned by the miracle and said:
"Alright, we have searched the entire Eluohai City thoroughly. There is nothing else valuable in the city. You can move around freely this time."
I want to see if this strange Eluohai City can withstand the power of Feng Bo Ming.
Although Hu Bayi has already accepted his fate, he still feels a little unhappy after hearing what Liao Zhong said.
Hu Bayian rolled his eyes and pulled Liao Zhong to his side: "Then Mr. Liao, the two old guys will form a team, and the two young guys will form a team, and we will act separately."
Liao Zhong shook off Hu Bayi's pull and wanted to refuse, but when he looked down at the expressionless Chen Duo, he sighed softly again. He knew that Chen Duo lived a very lonely life in the bunker every day.
Because of concerns that the poison in Chen Duo's body would leak out, Chen Duo has been staying in the bunker ever since she was allowed to meet the children of various alien families in order to open her defenses last time. She has not seen people of her age for a long time.
Liao Zhong said, "Duo'er, you follow Xiuwu. Hu Bayi and I will go over there to take a look."
