If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 631 Opening (Two in One)

"Ye Sheng, Ya Ji, stay put and stand by. We will meet underwater in 15 minutes and keep the signal unblocked." Professor Limans in the captain's room followed the original plan almost without hesitation. After putting down the microphone, he turned his head and started walking rear compartment.

"Professor, is this going too smoothly?" Selma followed Professor Mance with a slightly excited and nervous expression. This kind of emotion is understandable. At this time, the entire crew on the Moniaher was in this state of mind. Exhilarating, frightening, exciting, incredible.

"Sometimes it is a stupid choice to regress and give up because of worries about gains and losses. Although this will make people live longer, people in our business have never expected to live longer. People in the executive department do not have retirement wages. Three insurances The only thing I buy here every year is medical insurance, wouldn’t it be a shame if I didn’t even have the chance to enjoy this?” Professor Mance lit a cigar, took a deep breath, and passed through his lungs, the strong spicy and The nicotine was squeezing his lungs, but only the excess could keep him high.

Discovering the bedroom of the Dragon King is a huge breakthrough from zero to one for the entire mixed race. If you open the door of the bedroom and step into it, the achievement is no less than that of Neil Alden Armstrong when he stepped on the moon. small step.

Now they are standing in front of the gate of the treasure house. While they are excited, they will inevitably be afraid of the poisonous snake guarding the treasure. Its scales are dyed by the light of the treasure, and it is hidden in the pile of gold and silver, ready to bite anyone who covets the treasure of the Dragon King.But no one gave up the pile of treasures because of the poisonous snake that couldn't be found, let alone they came to hunt for treasures with "serum", and they were already aware and prepared to leave something behind.

He crossed the front cabin, took a dialed mobile phone from the chief mate, put it in his ear and said in a low voice, "'Kuimen Project' has made a new breakthrough, we found it, Norton's bedroom, get through After the rock formation, Ye Sheng and Ya Ji discovered a huge city made entirely of bronze below."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, "Ancient Bronze City, the bedroom of the King of Bronze and Fire Are you going to dive now?"

"Entering the ancient city requires a 'sacrifice', but we carry a 'locksmith' with us, principal, you have to prepare in advance to help us a lot. We have to explore the ancient city before the Yangtze River Maritime Safety Administration and another batch of competitors, if If possible, I hope to have more resources to seal off this river area, as for the reasons, you can find any reason, just like what the executive department did before."

"Competitors? There shouldn't be many people who can compete with us here. Has the local 'orthodoxy' noticed our actions?"

"No, the situation is not that bad. It's just an underwater expedition team funded by non-governmental organizations. The funding conditions are second only to us. Their equipment is very advanced and they belong to a professional deep-water expedition team. It is said that every member They have all carried out deep-water salvage of sunken ships, and they are all experts. It is not easy to pull up this team and hear the news. I have asked the executive department to check the gold behind the underwater expedition team. Lord, there should be news in the short term, but before that, I am still worried that they will disrupt our plan." Mance said in a deep voice, "According to my experience, it is no matter what country or water area, this kind of non-governmental organizations are all Crazy, once underwater contact is very likely to conflict."

"Then the 'insurance' on your body can play a role at this time." The other end of the phone said, "If there is a positive contact, he will handle it entirely."

Professor Mance paused for a moment and turned his head to glance at Lin Nian who had been silently following Selma. The two looked at each other, and Mance turned his head and walked to a separate room and walked in. "Principal, I have a hunch that there may be living things in the ancient city that are not completely dead."

"Complete the task according to the plan, and rush to the scene as soon as possible after solving the troubles caused by the old friends in Chicago." The principal said, "If you really encounter a living thing, let that child send it to the scene." Let it go, let it die, that's how he is positioned in this mission."

After Mance nodded slightly, he silently put down the phone, leaned over and picked up the infant baby in front of him. The baby was not noisy, and the thunderstorm and heavy rain did not frighten him. Those pale golden eyes kept looking at him quietly. Ahead—not looking at Mance who picked him up, but looking directly over his shoulder at the boy who entered the room behind him.

"It seems that 'Key' likes you very much." Said the lady-like woman sitting on the chair next to her baby, looking at Lin Nian who walked in.

"If he can grow up normally, he may be able to enter the college smoothly, but if he joins the college, he will definitely be won over by the student union. After all, his sister is a member of the student union. Don't worry about the problem." Lin Nian said standing by the door and looking at the baby.

"Do you have any conflicts with Chen Motong?" the woman asked.

"On Freedom Day, he knocked out some of Nuonuo's teeth. In a normal duel." Mance held the 'key' and glanced at Lin Nian. Nuonuo was his student, and it was probably because of these things that he had a great deal of respect for him. Lin Nian has always been a little biased?It's not a prejudice, it's just that I can't like this 'S' class so much.

"That kid Nuonuo should restrain himself a little bit." The woman nodded but didn't have any opinion on this matter.

"She is a good child, but sometimes she is more playful. As a mother, maybe you should pay more attention to her." Mance coaxed "Key" and said softly.

"But I don't think she regards me as a mother. Maybe she trusts her little boyfriend more than me, the beautiful son of the Gattuso family."

"I think Caesar will have some complaints about the description of 'beautiful boy', but it doesn't matter, he is not here." Lin Nian turned and walked out of the room to change the diving suit, Professor Mance took another look at him and found nothing. Said, took the "key" and rushed to the front cabin with Thelma to prepare diving equipment.

The woman stayed in the room and watched the two leave without saying anything. She originally wanted Mance to be more careful. After all, the "key" is a valuable property in the family, but in the plan, the boy would also go into the water. If there is any damage to the "key" by his side, it probably won't help anyone else.

"It's a pity." The woman turned her head to look at the storm outside the porthole.

It's a pity that the man who was as strict as a terracotta warrior even tried to let Chen Motong take the initiative to make friends with that potential boy. A red-haired girl racing with a blond boy was caught by the Disciplinary Committee, and it was the boy that the head of the Chen family favored. Did you resist the family by making enemies and giving up relationships?

She is really a lawless little witch, but I don't know what the arrogant little stallion of the Gattuso family will think after knowing this?Do you feel cheated, or continue to tame the red-haired shrine maiden with your charisma?
Women don't want to continue to think about it. Young people's affairs. Let the young people solve it by themselves.

There are only two people who are about to dive, Mance and Lin Nian. Their diving suits have already been changed. Compared with Lin Nian's standard diving suit, Mance's diving suit has a glass dome on the belly, and the "key" is Hidden inside, there is not much space, but at least it is connected to the oxygen pipeline and there is enough air.

"Dragon King's bedroom, professor, can you take a picture of me after you go down?" Thelma asked while helping Mance hang up the compressed air bottle.

"Everything about Baidi City will be classified as confidential. It is impossible to leak half a picture. If this exploration goes well, it is estimated that it will take less than 24 hours to negotiate with the government to form a control area. For the legacy of the Dragon King The secret party can pay an unimaginable price, and they are even willing to inject funds to build a new special economic zone just to stand alone in this water." Mance said, biting his cigar.

"Professor Dragon King's Legacy, what kind of treasures do you think the Four Great Monarchs will leave behind in the bedroom?" Selma asked curiously, "It can't really be gold and silver treasures, right?"

"White Emperor City was built as far back as the Western Han Dynasty. It was a man named Gongsun Shu. Sichuan was located in the west of the ancient Chinese territory. Gongsun Shu thought that his lucky thing was metal, and metal was white. He also had a 'white'. Coincidentally, his year name at that time was also named "Longxing". Many historians initially thought that he was the dragon king disguised as a human, but after investigation, it was found that he was just launched on the table Chess piece, someone else built Baidi City." Walking into the front cabin and seeing the two people who had already changed into diving suits, Jiang Peijiu interrupted casually to explain that she probably had the richest understanding of these official histories in the room.

"Looking at it now, the real dragon recorded in the 'dragon crouching in front of the mansion' that Gongsun Shucheng met before Emperor Gongsun Shucheng is probably the king of bronze and fire. Since Baidi City was built by him, the truly meaningful treasures in it can only be It is a profound alchemy matrix and a large number of bronze artifacts." Jiang Peijiu said.

"Alchemy weapon!" Lin Nian picked up Ju Yiwen Zezong, who was leaning against the wall, and turned his wrist across it in front of him, "I heard that the King of Bronze and Fire has two great powers, the ultimate flame and the superb alchemy technology. Baidi City is suspected to be a giant alchemy city that he made with the mountain as a mold. It is rumored that he even built an ultimate dragon-slaying weapon that could kill other monarchs on the throne, but it was lost in his disappearance, saying Maybe we can find it in the palace this time."

"If he is still alive, kill him with his weapon?" Jiang Peijiu asked.

"With this kind of thinking, Ju Yiwen Zezong is a good knife, but it is not suitable for cutting off the head of the Dragon King." Lin Nian put his thumb on the knife and glanced at the shiny blade after maintenance, then retracted his thumb to close the scabbard, eyes His eyes are full of peace.

"I guess you will apply to the ice cellar for long-term use rights after you find the ultimate dragon-slaying weapon?" Professor Mance spit out the cigar and took a deep breath to exhale the excess smoke, looking at the chrysanthemum in Lin Nian's hand after he put on the diving suit. A word is said.

"Weapons need to be handy. If the dragon-slaying weapon is a mallet, does that mean that I have to give up kendo and practice knocking people instead?" Lin Nian shook his head.

"Knocking on the Dragon King's sap feels pretty good!" Selma said tut-tsk.

"Let's gossip less. When Lin Nian and I went into the water, the command authority was handed over to the first officer. Ser'an observed the surrounding waters at any time. The visibility is very low because of the storm. If I were someone with ulterior motives, I would always Don't give them the slightest chance if you find the opportunity to strike!" Professor Mance said in a cold voice, and the first officer on the side took the captain's cap and put it on his chest and saluted solemnly, which was regarded as the completion of the handover.

"Yes, professor, I promise to complete the task." Thelma also stood at attention and said solemnly.

"Call me Captain."

"Yes, Captain."

After explaining everything, Mance turned and left the captain's cabin without further delay and walked towards the deck where the heavy rain was pouring. Lin Nian, who was following behind him, also took steps after checking the equipment for the last time. Jiang Peijiu, who walked to the door, called out, "'S' class."

Lin Nian stood in the rain and looked back at her. She looked at Lin Nian for a few seconds and said, "Baidi City is a product of the Western Han Dynasty. If it is the emperor's palace, according to the general construction habits of Daliu at that time, the study room, the storage hall Most of them are located in places facing the sun and nourishing the mind. For example, Qianlong's "Sanxi Hall" is to the west of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Find something useful about Norton's real legacy."

"Why did you tell me this? I won't go deep into the bedroom during the mission, that's the work of Ye Sheng and Yaji." Lin Nian said looking at her through the heavy rain.

"'Orthodox' people all practice 'Taishang Wangqing', indifferent to all the connections and emotions that interfere with progress, but 'Taishang Wangqing' is not heartless and desireless, on the contrary, it is a manifestation of 'extreme desire', with ruthless The only way to achieve sentient beings is to construct the only sentient being with numerous ruthless." Jiang Peijiu said, "In fact, you have some similarities with those 'orthodox' people. What are you here for? It's the 'ladder of heaven', and you're looking for something else."

"."

Lin Nian stared at her for a while, until Mance in the distance seemed to notice something, and turned his head to look at him who was standing still at the scheduled dive position, then he turned and walked over and stopped talking to Jiang Peijiu.

Standing in front of the door, Jiang Peijiu looked at the two people sitting on the side of the boat, using spotlights as a sign, they fell into the river and disappeared. She chuckled to herself, turned her head and walked into the cabin with her arms folded.

"Good luck, 'S' class kid."

—

The electromagnetic signal changed from eruption to retraction, and the "snake" flocked from all directions to Ye Sheng, who was hugged by Ya Ji, like a migratory bird returning home. Countless information flows were brought back to the brain for processing and analysis, even in cold deep water. Yaji could also feel the temperature rise of the big boy in his arms.

"'Snake' can't go deep into the Bronze City." Ye Sheng opened his eyes and exhaled and inhaled again, taking a mouthful of oxygen-enriched compressed air. Only air with this concentration of oxygen can provide him with the capital for underwater activities.

"Even if it's already in front of you, can't you detect it? How complicated is the terrain inside?" Yaji let go of Ye Sheng and allowed him to float in the water independently.

"It's not a problem with the terrain. I have roughly figured out the structure of the outer layer, but the closer the 'snakes' get to the inside, the more difficult it is to advance. There is something inside the Bronze City that makes them very uneasy." Ye Sheng said in a deep voice. .

"This is not good news," Yaji said.

"No, on the contrary, this is good news." Ye Sheng said, "According to the experience of the former commissioner of the executive department, there was once a team ordered to search for a hunted dog in the no man's land of Supayi, Arizona. It is one of the most remote places in the world, full of rugged mountains and shelters. Originally, it was a difficult task to find the dragon, but one of the team members suddenly Qixiang took the initiative to release the weasels into the mountains. After three days, they mapped out the area where the weasels flew freely and explored. Finally, they noticed a valley that no weasels had ever explored on the map. They are also It was there that the absconded dragons were found, and the terrain was used to successfully intercept them."

"You mean?" Yaji immediately understood what his partner meant.

"A small number of speech spirit products with free will will actively fear pure-blooded dragons, such as the 'Scythe Weasel', and the 'Snake' I manipulated. This may become troublesome in battle, but now he is instead Became my locator!" Ye Sheng stared at the infinite bronze wall with light eyes, "As long as we head towards the place that the 'snake' fears the most, we can find the 'cocoon' of the Dragon King. The premise is that it is still there. Did not hatch."

"If it hatches, the 'S' class can't save us, right?" Yaji said.

"But if he was on the scene, he would definitely rush to tell us that he is a good boy." Ye Sheng said, and he looked at Ya Ji and joked, "If we were a few years later in college, maybe I would still be worried about you. Momentize to pursue him."

"Am I so easily moved? But what are you worried about?" Yaji asked in a low voice, Ye Sheng just laughed, thinking it was pure teasing.

The beam of light from the spotlight came from behind. Ye Sheng and Yaji looked back and saw two figures swimming towards them. After the lights flickered and the predetermined signal was given, they silently breathed a sigh of relief and greeted them slightly excitedly.

"Professor, is this the diving suit specially made for you by the equipment department? It looks like a kangaroo who can only dive." Ye Sheng saw the appearance of Professor Mance swimming over, and connected the communication to the public channel of the Moniaher to say hello. .

"Hey, 'key'." Yaji also lowered his head slightly, bent his fingers and tapped the glass cabin in front of Professor Mance's stomach. The "key" inside was looking around with slightly golden eyes. This environment seemed to be suitable for him. It was also the first time that I was full of curiosity about the whole world.

"I just felt that the domain is expanding. Has any of you released the speech spirit again?" Lin Nian looked at Ye Sheng and asked.

"It's me. I was thinking that since I have to replace the gas cylinder soon, why not consume some oxygen to see if there is any movement in the Bronze City." Ye Sheng said.

".Can you feel the field of 'snake'?" Mance glanced at Lin Nian unexpectedly, and he really wanted to ask this question, but it was the Moniach on the water that detected the electromagnetic signal, but now it was Lin Nian took the lead.

"'S' class always has something special, doesn't it?" Ye Sheng smiled. He had seen Lin Nian's specialty as early as in the "Red House" last time. Although it was unbelievable, it was not unacceptable. Hybrids who are naturally sensitive to things can still detect some of them, but those who can accurately capture "snakes" like Lin Nian are rare.

Saying "I can catch bullets" is outdated, and the truly powerful people go to catch "snakes" and "scythes".

"How does it feel?" Mance asked Lin Nian after looking at the huge and boundless walls of the Bronze City together.

"Uneasy." Lin Nian said bluntly, "There is a feeling of depression."

"Professor Jiang Peijiu said that there is a magnetic field that can interfere with living things, and it may be because of this." Ye Sheng said, "My 'snake' also felt the same uneasiness inside, so it is basically certain that there is something terrible hidden inside. .”

"Open the door first." Mance leaned close to the wall, and after scanning the searchlight up and down, he noticed a special place, where there was a pattern on the wall.

"The 'gate' of Baidi City does not really exist. Because it is suspected that the mountain was poured into the mold, there was no concept of a 'gate' at the beginning of the design. It was only later that Norton used his extraordinary alchemy to use 'living spirit' to create it. The entrance and exit doors guarantee the secret of Baidi City to a greater extent." Mance stopped in front of the pattern and reached out to touch the wall, he closed his eyes and then opened them, golden light shot out from the bottom of his eyes, and at the same time At the same time, majestic and resounding syllables spit out from his mouth, and the solemn and mysterious rhythm leaked out of the oxygen mask and oscillated and spread throughout the waters.

The river surrounding Mance began to rotate, and a domain was generated and expanded from his body. Lin Nian quickly approached, Ye Sheng and Ya Ji followed suit, and the domain enveloped them. Lin Nian tore apart the gas cylinder tube behind him, and the compressed air quickly filled the inside of the domain. They were affected by the domain and actually stood in the air!

Yanling · Dustless place.

The circular domain expanded to the limit of four meters and then stopped. The place where the edge touched the river continued to ripple until finally the domain stabilized and remained as smooth as a mirror. Mance stretched out his hand to touch the air-shrouded wall, and the copper rust quickly peeled off .

The phenomenon of weathering appeared on the ancient city that had been buried in the water for thousands of years. Hidden under the rusty spots was a bluish-black metal that looked like oil. It was a raised human face with a burning firewood in its mouth. , with a distorted and painful expression, pressing down on the firewood and couldn't bear to let go.

"There is a 'living spirit' inside, the greatest achievement of alchemy, turning death into life and sealing the 'soul' into the dead thing to achieve an alternative eternity. If you want to open the door, you must sacrifice the 'soul' in the dead thing , This is the rule." Mance said, "The blood of 'Key' is enough to meet the conditions of the sacrifice, and we need him to open the door."

"Can Commissioner Lin Nian's study achieve the same effect?" Yaji asked.

"We've discussed this, and his blood should be used in the next session." Mance carefully took out the little baby from the glass cabin, with short hands and feet, a chubby face, and even sparse pale spots on the top of the head. Yellow lanugo.

That is to say, such a baby showed a different maturity and solemnity at this moment. He was suspended in front of the "living spirit" because of the domain, and stretched out his fingers like a priest giving mass to believers. His delicate fingers pressed On the sharp bulge, mellow red blood oozes from the broken skin.

A strange scene happened, the blood-stained bronze face was like dripping into a sponge that cannot be dyed, the blood soaked in and disappeared, and the face suddenly opened its mouth as if it had come to life. With a "yawn", Mance hurriedly hugged the "key" back, because rather than "yawn", he felt that the movement of this human face's mouth opening was more like a snake's jawbone expanding as much as possible before eating.
The accident did not happen. There was a heavy roar from behind the walls of the Bronze City. It was the sound of mechanical operation. The whole city was indeed a giant of alchemy. A hole appeared on the wall without a trace. The hole was circular in diameter. One meter, the edges are full of bronze spikes that are as sharp as teeth, which is as disturbing as the huge mouth of a worm.

A few people moved to the entrance of the cave, but they couldn't see anything when the spotlight searched inside. Mance turned to look at Lin Nian. At this time, Lin Nian also silently took off the gloves of the specially made diving suit. Liaoju Yizi Zezong pressed his left thumb on the one-inch-exposed edge of the blade.

A drop of blood seeped out of the clean land from the crack in the skin of the thumb. Everyone was suddenly bewitched and held their breath to stare at the drop of blood. Where is the blood? It is simply a liquid bomb. Ruby, so magnificent that people forget to breathe and just stare blankly.

At this moment, Ye Sheng, Yaji, and Mance were all slapped on the face. The severe pain made them clear their heads a little. It was difficult for the oxygen masks to smell the blood drops, but what was incredible was that even after seeing the blood, an irresistible smell appeared in their minds, which was their most coveted smell.

Even the "key" suddenly opened its teeth and claws and whimpered to go towards Lin Nian, staring at Lin Nian's thumb, as if it was a treasure comparable to Xu Fuji's lollipop or his mother's hatching head.

Mance hurriedly stuffed the "key" back into the glass cabin in front of his stomach, and the little guy was still sticking his hands to the glass and his face stuck to it, looking at Lin Nian with bright eyes, his expression full of longing.

"I finally know why you refused to shed a blood sample." Ye Sheng said with a dry throat after looking away, "Is all 'S'-level blood like this?"

"I feel like I smell gardenias." Yaji also looked away and whispered.

"I'm the only one like this, I hope you guys can keep this secret." Lin Nian said with a flick of his index finger, and shot the oozing blood droplet towards the dark and hideous hole.

When the rose-red blood touched the edge of the Clean Land domain, it also passed through under the instruction of Mance. When it touched the water, the blood lost its original shape, and shot out in the river like a red ribbon. Straight into the dark depths of the cave mouth
