After walking a short distance, Fatty pointed to a small blue ball of fire climbing on the cave entrance not far ahead and shouted,"Look, what's that blue light at the entrance?”
Old Hu looked up and his expression changed drastically. He exclaimed," Fireflies!!!"
"D * mn, this is that firefly?!!”When Fatty heard Old Hu's words, he was so scared that he took a few steps back.
"Retreat quickly! This thing is too dangerous. Don't let it touch you.”Hearing Old Hu's words, almost everyone took a few steps back, leaving Xiang Qian alone standing where he was.
"Mr. Xiang, retreat quickly. Why are you still standing there pretending to be deep?”Seeing that Xiang Qian did not retreat, Fatty ran forward and pulled Xiang Qian back.
"Alright, Fatty, I'm fine. Look, there are only three fireflies. If we don't think of a way to destroy them, we can't enter either.”
Xiang Qian pulled the fatty who was pulling him and said to the people behind him.
Old Hu and Yang Xueli also walked to Xiang Qian's side when they heard that. They looked at the fireflies at the entrance of the cave and asked Xiang Qian for money.
"Mr. Xiang, do you have any ideas?”
"Give me all the water bottles and wet this shirt. I'll kill them.”
As he spoke, Xiang Qian took out a cotton coat from the bag on his back.
"Will it work? Be careful." Old Hu and Fatty said as they handed the water they brought to Xiang Qian.
Xiang Qian wet his clothes and carefully walked to the entrance of the cave with the clothes. He lifted the clothes and pounced on the firefly.
"Zi!"
White steam rose from his clothes, and three fireflies died.
"Alright, come over. The firefly is dead.”
Xiang Qian called everyone over and walked into the cave.
After walking for a while.
"Come and see!"
Professor Chen pointed at a few boulders beside him." Look at these. What are they?!”He stared excitedly at the strange words on the stone.
"It's the Abyssal Language. Little Wang, quickly bring your jade over to compare! Hurry!"
Professor Chen's words were a little incoherent.
Fatty took out his jade and placed it beside the strange words on the huge rock.
"It's really exactly the same!"
Everyone gathered around to take a look and were all surprised.
"Hurry up! Hurry up and take a photo of all of this. We'll study it when we get back!”
After Professor Chen gave his instructions, several young members of the archaeological team immediately took out their cameras and began to take photos.
"Crack!"
The camera flashed.
Seeing this, Xiang Qian and Old Hu cursed angrily at the same time,"Don't turn on the flash!"
"You can't turn on the flash here! Turn off all the flashes! From now on, no one was allowed to take pictures. What if they took more pictures and fireflies appeared?”
"Xiao Hu, Xiao Xiang, it's not that serious, right? Just ask them to turn off the flash. These are all valuable information. We should take them out. This will be a major breakthrough for our country's archaeology community!”
Professor Chen went forward to persuade Xiang Qian and Old Hu. He wanted to bring all these out.
"Professor Chen, when you came here, you promised to listen to me and Lord Xiang. Otherwise, we can't guarantee your safety.”
Old Hu replied.
"Don't worry, Little Hu. We'll be careful. Don't use the flash when you're taking pictures.”
Professor Chen promised Old Hu as he instructed a few young members of the archaeological team.
Xiang Qian ignored them and continued to walk forward because he had just heard the sound of water flowing.
Everyone saw that Xiang Qian had already walked forward and hurriedly followed behind him.
After walking deeper into the cave for a while, an underground river appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
Fatty ran to the dark river and dipped his hand into the water.
"Old Hu, Lord Xiang, come over quickly. The water is hot!”As he spoke, Fatty jumped into the water and waved at Xiang Qian and Old Hu.
"Fatty, be careful!" Xiang Qian walked to the side of the dark river and took out the God-Slaying Halberd and Demon-Killing Spear. He turned around and said to the people behind him.
"Everyone, hurry up and cross the river. There might be some strange creatures running out of this underground river!”
As he spoke, Xiang Qian held his weapon and stared at the water while walking towards the other side of the river.
Old Hu, Fatty, and the soldiers also took out their weapons and carefully protected the archaeological team across the river.
After crossing the river and landing on the shore, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"Little Xiang, the weapon in your hand is also an antique, right?”Professor Chen's occupational disease acted up again. He stared at the God-Slaying Halberd and Demon-Killing Spear in Xiang Qian's hands and asked with glowing eyes.
"I don't know either. It's passed down from my ancestors."
Xiang Qian said perfunctorily and looked ahead.
Not far ahead, there was a huge cave.
A blue light was emitted from the entrance of the cave. It was a dense mass of fireflies.
"I'll go over and take a look first. Don't move.”
Xiang Qian was about to walk in when Old Hu reached out and pulled Xiang Qian.
"I'll go with you."
Xiang Qian looked at Old Hu and nodded. The two of them walked in carefully.
When he entered, he saw a magnificent tower of the dead that was made up of countless corpses.
"How many people must have died to build such a tower?”Gang Zi had also caught up with them.
Skeleton after skeleton hung on top of the Dead Man Tower, and on top of these skeletons, fireflies were sleeping.
Fatty walked forward and whispered,""Are we…directly in their nest?!”
Yang Xueli, Professor Chen, and the others couldn't wait to surround the tower. They were all stunned when they saw the tower.
"This should be the demon tower of the western region. It's not an exaggeration to call it a dead man's tower because this kind of tower is built with dead bodies.”
As far as the eye could see, as long as there was a gap, corpses could be seen.
Old Hu saw that the situation around him was not right. He pulled Professor Chen beside him and said,"We've already seen it. Let's leave this place quickly in case something happens later.”
"Little Hu, since you're already here, don't be in such a hurry to leave. These are all major discoveries in the archaeological world.”Professor Chen persuaded Old Hu to wait a little longer before leaving.
"Yes, Teacher is right. The purpose of us coming here is to find clues. If we leave immediately, won't we have come for nothing?”
Professor Hao followed Professor Chen's words and persuaded him. The other members of the archaeological team also nodded in agreement with Professor Chen and Professor Hao.
