Chapter 17 Sudden Changes
"Back then, Partridge Whistle had gone to great lengths to invite Elder Chen to come out of the mountain. Now we just ask for some gold and silver things. Is that too much?"

Listen to what Su Mo said.Xue Liyang's expression changed again and again, "You...you know my identity?"

"Of course!"

Su Mo shrugged and did not hide anything, "Partridge Whistle was disheartened back then, so he traveled across the ocean to the country of America, and you are from the country of America, but you are going to the ancient city of Jingjue, so your identity is not difficult to guess... "

"Ah…"

Xueli Yang let out a long breath, "30 US dollars per person, I promise you, this is what the family owes you!"

Decades ago, my grandfather asked Elder Liaochen, who was in the lineage of Xiaowei Mo Jin, for help.

Today, I asked for help from the successor of the Jin lineage!

Fate really made a big joke on itself!

Looking at the three of Su Mo, Xue Liyang's expression was a little complicated.

"Master Hu..."

The fat man muttered, "What did Brother Su say to this girl? Why can't I understand..."

Old Hu sighed, "It's an old account, don't mention it!"

Xue Liyang said again, "I can promise you 30 US dollars, but I can only pay you [-] each first, and I can give you the rest of the money after the matter is completed..."

"it is good!"

Su Mo nodded slightly, which could be regarded as approval of Shirley Yang's plan.

"Master Su is amazing..."

The fat man's face was ecstatic, and he whispered, "White wolf with empty gloves, we each have 10 yuan, a total of 30 US dollars!"

"Old Hu, wouldn't it be better for us to sneak away with 30 dollars..."

"..."

Old Hu looked at Fatty with disgust, and secretly sighed that his brain circuit was strange.

Su Mo stood up and said with a smile, "Miss Yang, don't worry, I promise to bring you to Jingjue Ancient City!"

【Ding! 】

At the same moment, the system sounded, [The host has successfully become a member of the archaeological team, rewarded with fists! 】

A large number of boxing memories began to pour into his heart, Su Mo was secretly happy, 30 US dollars, plus a set of cloak boxing, this wave of operations made a lot of money.

"When are we going to Jingjue Ancient City?"

"In a few days!"

Xue Liyang was completely defeated in the confrontation with Su Mo. At this moment, she had no fighting spirit. After speaking, she returned to her room dejectedly.

a few days later...

On the green train to XJ.

Su Mo and Lao Hu were lying on the bunk and sleeping soundly, preparing for the upcoming Jingjue Ancient City.

"Shh!"

The door was opened, and Professor Chen woke up the three of Su Mo, "Several comrades, something happened temporarily, we have to get off at the next stop and divert to Kunlun Glacier..."

"what…"

Old Hu exclaimed, "Going to Kunlun Glacier? Why didn't you inform us before departure..."

Professor Chen was also taken aback by Hu Bayi's reaction, and explained, "There is a change in the itinerary, Kunlun Glacier has clues left by Xueli Yang's father..."

"Clue? Just a clue?"

Old Hu stared, grabbed Professor Chen by the collar and asked, "Do you know where the Kunlun Glacier is? Do you know that it will kill people..."

Su Mo frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Old Hu, calm down!"

Hearing Su Mo's words, Hu Bayi let go of Professor Chen, but the anger in his chest was already out of control.

"what!"

Lao Hu punched the train carriage.

"Mr. Hu, why are you so against the Kunlun Glacier..."

Xue Liyang also came over, looking at the furious Hu Bayi, she asked, "Do you know something?"

The fat man also said, "Old Hu, tell me what you know, maybe if you know the reason, these people will stop going to Kunlun Glacier!"

"All right!"

Lao Hu briefly adjusted his emotions, "When I was a soldier, I was stationed at the Kunlun Glacier..."

"It's covered with ice and snow all the year round, it's very mysterious!"

Lao Hu seemed to be trapped in some kind of memory, and explained what happened that year with a solemn face.

"Bugs with blue light? Burn when touched?"

Hearing what happened to Lao Hu, Shirley Yang frowned into the word "Chuan", "Look if it's such a bug..."

With that said, Shirley Yang took out a magazine from her pocket and handed it to Hu Bayi.

Looking at the picture records in the magazine, Lao Hu's expression changed, "That's it, that's it, I'll never forget it for the rest of my life..."

"A bug with blue light all over its body, the size of a thumb, but killing people in just an instant..."

Lao Hu Wan seemed to have seen an evil spirit, and his expression became very frightened.

Xue Liyang frowned, and murmured softly, "It turns out that this kind of bug really exists..."

Hearing this, everyone looked at her suspiciously.

Xueli Yang brushed her hair around her ears and said, "This kind of bug is called "The Beatieon Fire", also known as "Fire Ladybug"..."

"Currently it can only be found in the records of archaeologists and explorers around the world. For many people, it is just a legend!"

Su Mo shook his head, "Actually, it's not called a fire ladybug, nor is it a legend. In our country, it's called a "rotten firefly"!"

"........."

Everyone was shocked again.

Xue Liyang looked directly at Su Mo, and said in a deep voice, "Have you seen this thing before?"

Su Mo shook his head again, "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I just heard it from a few friends on the road..."

Su Mo took the newspaper from Lao Hu, pointed to the picture on it, and said, "The reason why this thing is called rotten firefly is because this kind of insect only lives in places full of corpses. I don't know if you have heard of rotten weeds. For Firefly?"

"........."

Shirley Yang, Lao Hu, and Fatty looked confused.

Professor Chen, who was silent for a long time, suddenly said at this moment, "I know..."

Everyone looked at Professor Chen, hoping that he could give them a reasonable explanation.

Professor Chen pushed the glasses on his nose and began to explain to everyone, "The "rotten grass turns into a firefly" mentioned by Brother Su just now refers to the traditional saying that rotten grass can turn into fireflies..."

"The fire ladybug you mentioned just now is the image produced by the rotting firefly absorbing the phosphorus element in the corpse, but this kind of creature is rare in history!"

Rotten firefly?

This thing actually exists!
Everyone looked at each other and muttered secretly in their hearts.

"wrong…"

Xue Liyang seemed to remember something, and immediately said, "Just now you said that rotten fireflies only live in places full of corpses, but there are a large number of rotten fireflies in Kunlun Glacier. What's going on?"

"Ah…"

Su Mo smiled ghostly. "Maybe there are thousands of corpses under the Kunlun Glacier!"

"..."

The crowd took a breath.
