Tomb Raider: The Last of Zagrama

Two days later, the archaeological team, which had made all preparations, boarded the train and set off.

The westbound train is speeding across the western land.

Looking at the scenery along the way through the car window adds a bit of fun to this boring journey.

But even if you look at the beautiful scenery for a long time, you will get tired of it.

Shirley Yang and Professor Chen stayed in the carriage all day long researching information.

Zhou He got bored, so he ran outside and concentrated on the"Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret" given by Hu Bayi, and watched Fatty Wang and the others playing cards.

Anyway, all the preparations that need to be done have been done. All that's left is to wait until we get to the place and make adjustments according to the actual situation.

"Xiao Zhou, Xiao Hu, come on."

While reading the book, Professor Chen came over. Zhou He and Hu Bayi didn't know what they were going to do when Professor Chen asked them to come over, but they still got up and went to the sleeper car.

After arriving in the car, Shirley Yang told They took two people and changed the route to Kunlun Glacier.

"Going to Kunlun Glacier? Hearing this place name, Hu Bayi was very excited,"You want to change the route, why didn't you tell me earlier?""

Professor Chen said,"We are also discussing it all the time."

"Is there any reason why I have to go?"

Zhou He pressed down the emotional Hu Bayi and winked at him, telling him to calm down; don't get angry in a hurry. He should clarify the matter first, and then talk about what happens next.

"A few years ago, a Chinese-foreign joint expedition team went on an expedition to Xinjiang."

Professor Chen explained to the two of them,"The leader is an old friend of mine who is obsessed with the culture of the Western Regions, but this expedition team is on its way to the desert to find the exquisite ancient city."

"I don’t know why I changed my route and went to Kunlun Glacier, and then disappeared. No one came back."

"The last distress signal was sent from the east foot of Kunlun Glacier."

"We analyzed that their disappearance was related to the east foot of Kunlun Glacier, and the reason why we went there was to find a notebook there."

"It is the diary of the British explorer Mr. Walter at the beginning of this century. In his diary, he recorded in detail how they found the ancient city of Jingjue step by step."

"Only by finding this notebook can we find the legendary ancient city deep in the desert."

Hearing this reason, Hu Bayi also calmed down, but he still said,"You don't understand it at all. It is very dangerous there, not only in terms of the natural environment."

Hu Bayi recounted the accident he encountered that year.

"I don’t know what it is. It looks like a blue ladybug. You can’t imagine how it feels to have a living person burn to death in front of you."

"I still don't want to mention it..."

This matter is a trauma in Hu Bayi's heart. If he could, he would never want to mention it in his life.

"What you encountered should be a Dap ghost bug!"

"Dap ghost bug?"

Shirley Yang, Hu Bayi and Professor Chen all focused their attention on Zhou He

"Regarding the information about the Dap ghost bug, I remember that I reported it after I came back. Zhou He looked at Professor Chen,"Professor Chen, don't you know?""

"This..."

Professor Chen was a little embarrassed. He was so obsessed with Jingjue culture that his original focus was only on the demonic writings and other materials.

"Lao Zhou, have you seen him?"

"Is it this thing? You two take a look."Shirley Yang took out a few photos from her bag.

Hu Ba took a look and replied,"Yes, that's it."Then he looked at Zhou He, and Zhou He nodded affirmatively, confirming that they were seeing the same insect.

"This bug is called a fire ladybug."Shirley Yang began to popularize science,"Currently it can only be found in the records of explorers and archaeologists around the world. These are just sporadic information. For many people, it is just a legend."

"They are not legends."

Zhou He shook his head slowly and denied this statement. Everyone's eyes were focused on him.

Zhou He said,"This is Dapu Ghost Insect, one of the demon slaves raised by the Demon Kingdom."

"This is a kind of demon slave who guards the tomb, specializing in guarding the nine-story demon tower of the Demon Kingdom."

"Dapu means"demon insect" in Tibetan. This blue insect that can turn into fireballs and devour living people is called"infinite karma fire".’"

"Infinite karma fire?"

Everyone was surprised, and Professor Chen said even more excitedly,"Xiao Zhou, are you sure this kind of bug is the demon slave raised by the Demon Kingdom? And where the demon slave appears, there must be a nine-story demon tower nearby?"

"right."

Zhou He said,"This kind of insect is very scary. The immeasurable karma fire can devour a living person and burn him to ashes the moment it touches the human body. In addition, be careful with indirect contact."

As he said that, he stood up, took off his crane cloak, opened the clothes underneath, and turned his back so that everyone could see his back.

There was an obvious difference on his back, near his left shoulder blade. Regular pothole marks

"This is..."

Shirley Yang stood up, tremblingly stroking the scar on her back, pressing with her fingertips, and could clearly feel the new growth of flesh here, which was obviously less than other places, and was inconsistent with the surrounding muscles.

"Xiao Zhou, is this what hurts you?"

"That's right."Zhou He turned around, put on his clothes again, and said,"This is when I entered the Kunlun Glacier and accidentally discovered the nine-story demon tower. When I was busy recording information, I accidentally woke them up."

"Countless bugs turned into blue fireballs and rushed towards me. I shot and ran for my life."

Zhou He said calmly, but Shirley Yang, who had been looking at him, could not help but imagine the process of his embarrassing escape just by listening to him.

"Later, in the process of escaping, I was lucky enough to find an underground river. I jumped into the river to escape."

"Before my body fully entered the river, a Dap ghost insect landed on my back. The burning flame burned away the flesh and blood where it landed almost instantly."

"Fortunately, I hid in the water at the last moment. The water extinguished the flames and drowned the insects."

"I drifted along the river. I was unconscious for a long time before I woke up. I took care of my wounds and walked for a long time before escaping again."

"Then he was rescued by grazing Tibetans, and he lay in the hospital for several months before recovering. However, the flesh and blood devoured by the flames at the wound would be almost impossible to completely grow back in this life."

When Zhou He talked about his experience, Shirley Yang shed tears of distress and looked at him with red eyes.

She didn't expect that those experiences and intelligence information that made her so mesmerized were obtained by him at the cost of his life.

"After the injury healed, I started asking around about this insect. Later, I met a Zhubigu in a temple of the Nyingma sect. He answered all my questions."

"A lot of information about the Demon Kingdom was also learned from Zhu Bigu and the Heavenly Singer."

"In addition, I also learned about the Dapu ghost insect. In addition to the infinite karma fire, there is also a kind of insect that is just the opposite of it. It is called the 'Naiqiong Shenbing'. It is said that it can freeze a living person in an instant."

"The freezing effect is comparable to liquid nitrogen"

"Zhu Bigu said, these are the demon slaves who assisted the Demon Kingdom and acted as a scheming agent. They are very dangerous, so I should be careful in the future."

The other three people were almost dumbfounded.

"Unexpectedly, in addition to the immeasurable karma fire, this kind of insect also has Neqiong Shenbing."

Professor Chen was a little worried,"It seems that during this trip to the Kunlun Glacier, we must be prepared to come into contact with the Dap ghost bug at any time."After saying that, he thought of something else.

"Xiao Zhou, you just said that you were injured by Wuliangkarma fire and hid in the water. The water extinguished the flames and drowned the Dapu ghost insect?"

"That's right. Zhou

He confirmed his guess,"Water is the nemesis of the infinite karma fire, and fire should be the nemesis of the poor god ice.""
