Chapter 9 The red dragon explores its claws! Glacier Corpse
Next, everyone hammered nails, tied ropes, and prepared to go down.
Ye Yixin stayed above and could contact the command center at any time to request support.
Others went down together.
The fat man glanced down and felt dizzy. He was slightly afraid of heights.
Hu Bayi frowned, "Fat man, are you okay?"
The fat man swallowed his saliva and said with a dry smile: "...I'm fine."
"Teacher, please slow down." Jiang Hua tied the rope to Professor Chen and slowly climbed down with him.
After all, Professor Chen is already sixty or seventy years old. If something unexpected happens, he can take action in time.
The crack was about a hundred meters deep, and there was only some faint light underneath.
Everyone climbed down slowly, and everyone was very careful. After all, this was on a cliff. If an accident happened, it would be life-threatening.
Suddenly, the fat man stepped on the air and fell down.
"Ahh..."
Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed.
"Fat man, are you okay?" Hu Bayi shouted quickly.
Thanks to the help of the rope, the fat man was hanging in the air, shaking constantly.
The fat man was so frightened that he almost peed. He swallowed hard, suppressed the fear in his heart, and responded: "Old Hu, I'm fine."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, Jiang Hua's sharp eyes saw that the rope supporting the fat man kept shaking with the fat man, and kept rubbing against a sharp stone. The sharp stone kept cutting the rope, and even only a thin bit was left.
"Fat man, stop moving!" Jiang Hua's heart skipped a beat and he shouted quickly.
"What?" The fat man was stunned for a moment.
"Your rope is about to break!" Jiang Hua was very decisive and quickly climbed towards the fat man.
When everyone heard this, they quickly raised their heads and looked at the rope, and they were all frightened.
The fat man was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.
However, he is too fat.
The rope was repeatedly cut by sharp stones, and finally broke with a soft sound.
"Ahhhh..." The fat man screamed suddenly.
"Fat man!"
Everyone was shocked and shouted.
Jiang Hua's eyes were focused, and his whole body was like an ape. He stepped on the stone with one foot, kept sliding the rope in his hand, and rushed towards the fat man.
However, he was still a little short.
The fat man's huge body continued to fall downwards in a free fall motion.
At this critical moment, Jiang Hua's eyes flashed.
The red dragon explores its claws!
His spine was like a big dragon, and his true energy exploded, providing him with strength. His right hand was like a claw, and he grabbed the fat man's collar with one hand.
The fat man's own weight, coupled with the force of the free fall, the force at that moment had exceeded three hundred kilograms.
If Jiang Hua hadn't broken through to a first-level warrior, even if he caught Fatty, he wouldn't be able to hold him back at all, and he might even be dragged down by Fatty.
"I'm scared to death, Fatty!"
The fat man had lingering fears and his legs were shaking. The moment he fell, he really thought he was dead.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Hua saved his life at the critical moment!
"Brother Jiang, you will be my brother from now on!"
"You have saved Fatty's little life. From now on, if Fatty can do it up to the mountain of swords and into the sea of fire, I promise not to blink an eye!"
Everyone fell to the ground safely.
The fat man immediately hugged Jiang Hua excitedly and said confidently.
Hu Bayi also came over and said seriously: "Brother Jiang, thank you so much for saving Fatty's life. I, Hu Bayi, owe you a favor!"
Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Lao Hu, Fatty, everyone is fine."
Hu Bayi turned his head to look at the fat man, kicked him hard, and said angrily: "Fat man, what happened to you just now? If Brother Jiang hadn't saved you, your two hundred kilograms of meat would have been smashed into pieces. Meaty! ”
The fat man scratched his head and said sarcastically: "Well... I didn't pay attention. I just missed the step. I must pay attention next time!"
Hu Ba glared: "Do you still want a next time?"
The fat man said helplessly: "I promise I will never do it again. Is that okay?"
Professor Chen sat on the ground beside him, panting. It was obvious that climbing down from the top was a big burden for him as an old man.
Professor Chen said thankfully: "Xiao Jiang, I was lucky to have you just now!"
Otherwise, his archaeological team lost one person before they even entered the Kunlun Glacier. How would he explain this?
On the other side, Shirley Yang was thoughtful.
She knew very well that in the situation just now, even with her rigorous training, it would be difficult for her to save the fat man.
This little shopkeeper of Guxuan seems to be very skilled...
Suddenly, Sa Di Peng exclaimed, "There is a corpse here!" Everyone quickly looked over and found a corpse.
The body was frozen in ice and was wearing mountaineering clothing with a backpack next to it.
Fatty: "Old Hu, wasn't he killed by that fire ladybug you mentioned?"
Hu Bayi shook his head, "It wasn't the fire ladybug. If it was the fire ladybug, there would be only a pile of ashes left here."
Shirley Yang also said: "He probably froze to death. He couldn't escape here and could only freeze to death. His clothes should be from my father's expedition team. I have seen him once."
< br>
"Ah." Chu Jian was startled, "Doesn't that mean..."
"My dad..." Shirley Yang lowered her eyes, "I was mentally prepared before coming here."
After resting for a while, everyone started to set off.
As the leader of the team, Hu Bayi warned: "Everyone must be careful, don't make any noise, keep up with the team, and don't get out of everyone's sight. Do you understand?"
"Yes!"
Everyone packed their luggage and prepared to go inside.
Satipeng took a camera, clicked, and took a photo of the corpse.
Hu Bayi frowned and said, "Xiao Sa, please turn off the flash. This can easily cause noise."
Sa Di Peng said quickly: "Yes, yes."
Jiang Hua was thoughtful. He remembered that in the TV series, it was because of Sa Di Peng's camera that the fire ladybugs rioted.
"Xiao Sa, can you show me the camera?"
Sa Dipeng was stunned for a moment, "Brother, why do you need a camera?"
However, he still handed the camera to Jiang Hua.
"Oh, let me see if there are any good photos in it." Jiang Hua responded casually.
Opening the settings, I found that the flash was really not turned off.
Jiang Hua was speechless. Fortunately, he had an extra thought. Otherwise, if he alerted Fire Ladybug, everyone would be in danger.
Everyone came to an underground river.
The river here is calm and the temperature is suitable.
The entire underground river is not big, only about a hundred meters or so.
"Hey, Lao Hu, it's so cold outside, but I didn't expect it to be quite warm inside." The fat man held a flashlight, looked around, and stretched.
Hu Bayi did not show any happy expression.
"Old Hu, what's wrong with you?" The fat man was stunned for a moment and asked.
Jiang Hua also shook his head, "Fat man, the temperature in this underground cave is suitable, which is not a good thing."
"Ah, why?"
"If you feel comfortable, other things will naturally feel comfortable as well."
"You mean...there is something in this river?"
"I guess so." Jiang Hua narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Then what should we do?"
Jiang Hua spread his hands and said, "Cold!"
At this time, Hao Aiguo screamed.
"Look, there is something on this stone wall."
Everyone looked at the stone wall. Under the illumination of the flashlight, strange words appeared on it, which looked like ghostly symbols.
Professor Chen held up his reading glasses and looked attentively.
Suddenly the fat man looked surprised and said: "Why do the ghostly symbols on this stone wall look a bit like the writing on my jade pendant?"
"That's right!" Professor Chen was a little excited, "Xiao Wang, it's not a bit similar, but exactly the same. This is the writing of the legendary Jingjue Kingdom, the Ghost Cave Writing!"
"Ghost cave text?" The fat man was stunned for a moment. He seemed to have heard Jiang Hua say it before.
Professor Chen explained: "Jingjue Kingdom was a small country in the Western Regions during the Western Han Dynasty. Since the Ghost Cave Inscriptions appeared here, it proves that there must be some kind of connection between the Kunlun Glacier and the ancient city of Jingjue, but we don't know it yet. That’s it! ”
Hao Aiguo's face was filled with joy, "Xiao Sa Xiaochu, hurry up and record the words on the stone wall. This is likely to open a new chapter in the archeology of the Western Regions!"
Professor Chen also said excitedly: "Shirley, we really came to the Kunlun Glacier at the right time."
"This place is really connected to the ancient city of Jingjue. The ghost cave text on it is proof! Your father and the others must have discovered something, so they came here."
With that said, Professor Chen turned his head and said to Jiang Hua: "Xiao Jiang, can you see what is written on it?"
Jiang Hua was famous for his profound knowledge of ancient writing in school.
That's why Professor Chen asked him to join the archaeological team this time.
Jiang Hua looked at the words on the stone wall, his eyes shining brightly.
If it were in the past, then he would read these ghost cave texts as if he were reading heavenly books.
And now, he has received a reward from the system - mastery of Ghost Cave Literature!
When I read the words on the stone wall again, I was able to fully understand the information above.
