Chapter 20 Dragon’s pressure, Jiang Hua’s promise

"Shirley Yang, are you okay?"

Jiang Hua immediately went over to help her up, and knocked down all the army ants that tried to climb onto her body.

"Well...I'm fine..."

Shirley Yang struggled to stand up, looked at the surrounding environment, held her forehead and said: "Where is this?"

"It should be in the underground passage of this ancient city."

Jiang Hua said angrily: "Shirley Yang, were you stupid just now? Is it more important for you to leave or not, the backpack or your life?"

For some reason, Shirley Yang, who has always been strong, felt a little aggrieved after hearing Jiang Hua's words.

"But...there is the Dragon Bone Book in the backpack."

"What about the Dragon Bone Book?"

"This Dragon Bone Book is very important to me." Shirley Yang looked at Jiang Hua and said seriously.

"More important than your life?"

"Yes!"

Shirley Yang stubbornly said.

"You are just a big fool, you know?"

Jiang Hua rolled his eyes and couldn't help but curse.

Shirley Yang turned her head and murmured: "You don't understand, you don't know anything..."

"Why don't I know? Aren't you just looking for the Muchen Bead?" Jiang Hua said nonchalantly.

Shirley Yang suddenly turned her head to look at him, with a hint of shock in her eyes, and then a cold look appeared in her eyes.

"Who are you? Why do you know Muchen Bead?"

"It's not a secret. Legend has it that Taoist Banshan went to the tomb to only ask for the elixir of immortality and didn't take any of the treasures."

"And this 'Elixir of Immortality' is the legendary Muchen Bead, also known as the 'Phoenix Guts'."

"And you are the only descendant of Banshan Taoist, Miss Yang, am I right?"

Shirley Yang looked shocked.

"How did you know?"

"Don't worry about how I know. I can tell you that even if you get all the Dragon Bone Heavenly Books, it's impossible to find the Muchen Bead!"

"Impossible!"

Shirley Yang said firmly: "This is the only clue my grandfather left me. As long as I decipher the oracle bone inscriptions on it, I will definitely find the legendary Muchen Bead!"

Jiang Hua rolled his eyes, a little helpless. Why didn't he realize before that this stupid girl was so stubborn?

"This Dragon Bone Heavenly Book was made by King Wen of Zhou Dynasty after seeing the Muchen Bead, and he performed divination and engraved its information on the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book. Therefore, there is no information about the Muchen Bead on it, only the information about the Muchen Bead!"


After Shirley Yang heard this, her face was a little pale and her body was shaky. These words were a big blow to her.

If there is no Where is the Muchen Bead in the Dragon Bone Book, then where is the Muchen Bead that the Zagrama clan has spent their entire lives pursuing?

Jiang Hua quickly went over to help her.

"Are you okay?"

Shirley Yang's face was ashen, and there was no sparkle in her eyes.

Jiang Hua said helplessly: "I'm really scared of you. I know the whereabouts of Muchen Bead. Can I take you to find Muchen Bead in the future?"

Hearing this, Shirley Yang's eyes shined brightly.

"Jiang Hua, do you know the whereabouts of Muchen Bead? Where is it?"

……

"The place where Muchen Bead is located is very dangerous. I can't tell you yet, lest you run away and die yourself." Jiang Hua said seriously.

Shirley Yang frowned: "I'm not afraid of death, I must find Muchen Bead."

"Then I can't tell you even more." Jiang Hua said calmly.

Shirley Yang suppressed her inner excitement and said calmly: "Jiang Hua, as long as you tell me the whereabouts of Muchen Bead, I can give you whatever you want!"

"No."

Jiang Hua rolled his eyes, "I said it was very dangerous there, but if you go there now, you will be in danger of death."

"But I can promise you that as long as I am confident enough, I will take you to find the Muchen Bead, okay?"

Shirley Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

At least Jiang Hua has relented and promised to take her to find the Muchen Bead.

"How long will that take?"

Shirley Yang looked at him nervously, wouldn't it take decades?

Decades later, she would be long dead.

The blood of people cursed by the ghost cave will turn into gold, leading to suffocation and death. The whole person is in great pain and will not live to be fifty years old!

She watched her grandfather die with her own eyes.

That scene is still vivid in my mind.

"As late as five years, as soon as one or two years."

Jiang Hua thought about it for a while,

Naturally speaking, at this time, with his strength, as long as he absorbs enough dragon energy, there is no need to be afraid of the dangers in the Worm Valley.

After all, he is a cheating man! Shirley Yang breathed a sigh of relief, five years?

That should be acceptable.

At this time, there were more and more desert army ants on the ground.

They discovered the intruders, emerged from every corner of the wall, and continued to gather, surrounding Jiang Hua and the two.

"No, Jiang Hua, what should we do now?"

Shirley Yang's face changed slightly when he saw the desert army ants gathering together. These army ants were no joke.

They are not even afraid of lions and tigers.

In the face of the huge number of desert army ants, even the king of beasts must avoid their sharp edges.

But Shirley Yang didn't realize that she had regarded Jiang Hua as her backbone without knowing it.

Jiang Hua looked at the hole above his head.

Sand is continuously filling in from the hole, and it seems that it is impossible to get out of the hole.

This place is at least dozens of meters away from the ground.

If they want to get out, it seems they have to find another way out.

As for these desert army ants, Jiang Hua didn't care. After all, they were just some ants.

"Don't worry, I have a solution."

Jiang Hua comforted Shirley Yang, and then took out the Red Dragon Token from his arms, injecting the true energy into it, and suddenly a wild aura came out of the Red Dragon Token.

The pressure of the dragon!

This is a new function unlocked by the Red Dragon Order after the ancestor of the Jiang family absorbed a large amount of Zhu Jiuyin's residual thoughts.

For a moment, the surrounding desert army ants seemed to have seen their natural enemies and crazily burrowed into the wall, never daring to show up again.

"What is this?"

Shirley Yang said in surprise, when Jiang Hua activated the Red Dragon Order just now, she seemed to have seen a real dragon soaring in the clouds.

The dragon roams the eight wastelands and threatens the world!

Then the surrounding desert army ants fled one after another.

What kind of treasure is this?

"This is my family's treasure!" Jiang Hua laughed, and then took the Red Dragon Order back into his arms.

Seeing that Jiang Hua had no intention of explaining, Shirley Yang curled her lips slightly and did not continue to ask any more questions.

"Then how do we get out now?"

Jiang Hua pondered for a moment and said: "This ancient city must be built on an underground river, otherwise it would not be able to support an ancient city, and these underground passages are likely to connect some of the core buildings of the ancient city."

"For example...sacrificial temples and the like..."

"We only need to walk along the underground passage to find the core building, which must have an exit..."

Shirley Yang nodded in agreement.

So, the two of them walked forward along the underground passage.

There was a rustling sound coming from the surrounding walls. This should be the desert army ants feeling uneasy.

On the one hand, they already sense the intruder.

And the queen ant is constantly giving orders to attack the intruders.

On the other hand, the desert army ants could feel that there was a very terrifying aura on that human being. This aura made many desert army ants unable to resist at all.

That's a dragon!

The legendary beast!

The pressure it unleashes, even after thousands of years, is not something that some tiny ants can withstand.

The entire underground passage is made of blue and black stone slabs, with a large number of murals on it. Most of the contents of these murals are sacrificial scenes.

"Jiang Hua, this mural seems to be offering treasures and slaves to Queen Jingjue. Look at the Queen Jingjue depicted above, who is covered with a veil and has eyes." Shirley Yang pointed to one of the murals and said.

Jiang Hua nodded, "This ancient city is probably a subsidiary state of Jingjue Kingdom. The giant-eyed stone statue we found in the ancient city can prove this."

"Do you think this ancient city was destroyed by desert army ants?" Shirley Yang guessed.

"Probably not."

Jiang Hua shook his head, "The desert army ants are indeed scary, but there are a large number of humans living here. It is basically impossible for the army ants to develop the current scale underground in the ancient city, and those people are not fools."

"Then how was this city destroyed?"

"Probably because of natural disasters."

Jiang Hua sighed, "Actually, many countries in the Western Region were destroyed due to natural disasters, especially here in the Black Desert, where sandstorms may break out at any time."

While the two were chatting, there was a creaking sound in front of them, which sounded creepy.

Jiang Hua and Shirley Yang stopped talking one after another.

Looking solemnly ahead, an uneasy feeling was born in their hearts...
