Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Chapter 124: The Ancestral Land of Zhalong Village

Jiang Hua said: "If this is something from the time of King Xian, then it must be at least two thousand years old."

The fat man couldn't help but ask, "How much is this thing worth?"

Jiang Hua smiled and said, "It's not much more than the jade coffin."

"Sigh~"

The fat man's eyes were glowing.

He couldn't help but walk over and look at the dragon-tiger short staff carefully.

"Fatty, let me ask you to go and see the candles..."

However, the words were not finished yet.

Hu Bayi's face changed.

The candle went out immediately.

At the same time, a sense of crisis surged in Jiang Hua's heart, and he subconsciously looked inside the coffin.

They saw blood gushing out from the inside of the coffin and spreading towards them.

Jiang Hua's scalp went numb, and he immediately shouted, "Everyone, run! There's something weird about this thing!"

Shirley Yang and others ran away without saying a word.

However, several blood-red vines shot out from the coffin and directly entangled their feet.

"What is this?"

Shirley Yang gritted her teeth, and a dagger suddenly appeared in her hand.

The cold light is shining!

Shirley Yang directly cut off the blood-red vine.

Little striker!
The protective treasure given to her by Blind Chen.

It finally came in handy at this moment.

Jiang Hua also took out the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword and kept chopping at the blood-red vines.

However, no matter how he chopped.

These blood-red vines seem to be endless.

Keep coming out of the coffin.

Jiang Hua's face darkened, he took out the Red Dragon Order and activated the Red Dragon's pressure.

next moment.

All the blood-red vines paused.

It's as if time and space have stopped.

They all stopped where they were.

Jiang Hua and others immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"What the hell is this?"

Everyone came forward to observe.

Shirley Yang frowned and said, "This doesn't look like a vine, it looks more like a bug."

"insect?"

"Yes, that's right." Shirley Yang nodded and said, "Look at this blood-red vine, there are blood vessels flowing inside, as if it has life."

"This doesn't look like plant tissue."

Suddenly, something strange happened again.

These blood-red vines seem to have broken through the shackles.

Once again, it continued to entangle their bodies.

Jiang Hua gritted his teeth and said, "Damn, it's not over yet, right?"

A Thompson submachine gun suddenly appeared in his hand, and he kept firing at the coffin.

Bang bang bang!
The jade coffin was like a piece of porcelain. After being hit by the bullet, it shattered into pieces.

The blood inside also flowed onto the ground.

These blood-red vines seemed to have lost their support and began to wither.

Seeing this scene, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The fat man smiled and said, "Hey, these damn things still want to attack me, your fat master?"

"Two shots will knock you all down."

The mummy also fell to the ground.

The fat man walked over, took off the golden mask on its face, and muttered.

"Hehe, consider this as compensation for our mental damages!"

The fat man put the golden mask into his backpack.

Suddenly, many torches lit up around.

A group of people suddenly rushed over, raised their hunting rifles and bows and arrows, and aimed at Jiang Hua and his group.

Jiang Hua frowned slightly, but did not act rashly.

An old man walked out from the crowd.

Jiang Hua raised his eyebrows slightly. This was the village chief of Zhalong Village who was holding a skull-shaped cane.

The village chief said in a deep voice: "Who are you? Why are you here?"

The fat man glared at him unconvinced.

"It's none of your business!"

The villagers of the surrounding Zhalongzhai suddenly became angry.

"you wanna die!"

"How dare you speak to the village chief like that?"

"Believe it or not, I killed you with one shot?"

The fat man also got angry.

"Yo yo yo, you bastards, do you have the guts to hit me on the head?"

The villagers of Zhalong Village were immediately excited.

The village chief raised his hand to stop them.

"Do you outsiders know that this is the territory of our Zhalong Village?"

"Do you want to go to the Insect Valley to find treasures?" At this time, Peacock's brother Ada hesitated.

He walked up and said, "Village chief, I know these people. They saved Peacock's life before and stayed in the village for one night. Can we let them go?"

"You know these outsiders? And you stayed in the village for a night?"

The village chief was stunned for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Then why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"You and Peacock have violated the clan rules, did you know that?"

The village chief snorted coldly, "Just for this reason alone, I can expel you and Peacock from the village!"

Ada lowered his head and sighed slightly.

I could only walk aside and remain silent.

At this time, a villager came up and whispered in front of the village chief: "Village chief, these outsiders must have bad intentions. I think we should go all out and use them as sacrifices directly, so that Fourth Grandpa won't have to die."

After hearing this, the village chief suddenly had an idea.

He hesitated for a moment, "Catch them."

Jiang Hua originally wanted to fight back.

After hearing these words, my heart suddenly moved.

He exchanged glances with Shirley Yang, Lao Hu and others, telling them not to act rashly.

They allowed the people from Zhalong Village to tie their hands behind their backs.

In fact, for Jiang Hua and others, this rope is of no use at all. With just a little force, the rope can be broken.

"go!"

"Don't try to play tricks!"

"Or I'll shoot you!"

Under the threat of the villagers of Zhalongzhai.

Jiang Hua and others were escorted to the Insect Valley.

On the way, Shirley Yang asked in a puzzled voice: "Jiang Hua, what do you want to do?"

Jiang Hua whispered, "Let's keep quiet and see what they are going to do. Only by getting close to these people in Zhalong Village can we find out the truth and solve this matter thoroughly."

Hu Bayi nodded and said, "This is a good idea.

The fat man said depressedly: "How long are we going to have to do this? It doesn't hurt, but I feel really depressed and scared."

Jiang Hua comforted him: "Don't worry, we are very close to the Insect Valley. You will be fine after enduring for a few hours..."

"What are you guys whispering about there?"

Suddenly, a man from the nearby Zhalong Village became impatient and couldn't help but shout angrily.

Everyone turned around and saw a one-eyed man with a rough look, pointing a shotgun at everyone.

The fat man glared at him and said, "What we are talking about is none of your business, a one-eyed dragon."

One-eyed dragon?
The one-eyed man suddenly became angry and his eyes turned blood red.

He hates it most when people talk about his eyes.

The fat man was still not afraid, and sneered: "What? Do you still want to beat me to death?"

"I'm telling you, your fat uncle is not afraid of anything, so why would he be afraid of a turtle grandson like you?"

The one-eyed man angrily said, "Fatty, do you believe that I can shoot you to death?"

"Hey, shoot if you can."

The fat man was not afraid at all.

The one-eyed man was so angry that he couldn't help but raised his shotgun and pointed it at the fat man.

Jiang Hua narrowed his eyes slightly.

If this one-eyed man dares to shoot, he will do it even if he is exposed.

After all, it was impossible for him to put the fat man in danger just to find out the truth about the sacrifice.

At this time, the old patriarch in front discovered the conflict between the two.

He walked over and shouted, "Zhalong."

The one-eyed man said angrily: "Chief, this fat guy is mocking me. I want to shoot him to death."

The patriarch gave the fat man a cold look.

"Zhalong, put down your guns, they are still useful."

The one-eyed man Zhalong hesitated for a moment, but finally swallowed his anger and put down the hunting rifle in his hand.

"And you outsiders, if you fall into our hands, just behave yourself, otherwise I can't guarantee what others will do to you."

The old patriarch glanced at the fat man and warned him coldly.

The fat man snorted coldly, "Old man, stop pretending, you are not a good person either."

The old patriarch narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the fat man.

Then he ignored him and went back to the front.

Hu Bayi shouted in a low voice, "Fatty, be quiet for a while."

The fat man chuckled and said, "Old Hu, what are we afraid of? That one-eyed dragon wants to control us even if we say a few words. I have a bad temper, so I really won't give him face."

Jiang Hua smiled and said, "It's okay. We don't have to find out the truth."

"I mainly want to follow the people involved in the Zhalong case. Maybe they have some way to enter the Worm Valley, and then we can be more relaxed."

While everyone was talking.

Suddenly, everything in front of me became clear.

They have already left the confines of the original jungle.

Before them was a valley shrouded in smoke.

The valley looked very strange, with rivers surrounding it and converging into the valley.

The valley is winding, and there are many colorful flowers planted outside. Colorful butterflies are flying among the flowers.

In the thick fog, everyone could see that the valley was surrounded by two bare rocky mountains. They looked very abrupt and out of place with the colorful plants outside the valley.

There was a gleam of light in Jiang Hua and others' eyes.

This should be the legendary Worm Valley.

The people in Zhalong Village also breathed a sigh of relief.

The old patriarch looked at the valley in front of him and said, "We have finally arrived at our ancestral land!"
