Chapter 533: Begin to Solve the Puzzle

On the evening of the day I returned to the city, Crescent Inn in Dunhuang County.

The night was already dark, and Pu Zixuan and others who spent a whole day back to the inn had no time to rest, and immediately entered a new round of "puzzle-solving activities".

Just as they experienced in every province before, after encountering something difficult to understand, they always gather together to deduce the truth behind the mystery with one word and one word. However, their own strength is often not enough. A person who understands some insider needs to be the "key" to open the box locked in the mystery. This time the box is the camel dealer Xu Yungen.

When they left Mingsha Mountain and handed the seven camels back to Xu Yungen, they asked Xu Yungen to explain the evil things they had encountered in the desert these two days. Xu Yungen took back the seven camels intact and returned the forty taels of the fifty taels of silver as a deposit to Pu Zixuan. Thinking that the business had ended and he didn't want to have any more entanglements with the seven people, the face of the businessman was immediately exposed. He first ignored them, and then thought that Pu Zixuan was a financial backer, hinting that as long as the money was given enough, all mysteries could be dug out for them.

So, Pu Zixuan had to stage another good show of "money pioneering the way", indicating that if Xu Yungen can solve the mystery of Mingsha Mountain, Devil City and the Dragon for them, he can give him another five taels of silver as a reward.

Xu Yungen's face immediately smiled like a blooming flower, saying that although he could not untie something strange, his wife must have known more and wanted to go back and ask him about his wife in Nalongle Village, and agreed to wait for him at the Crescent Inn in Dunhuang County tonight.

At this moment, the seven people were waiting for Xu Yungen to arrive in the inn, but before that, Pu Zixuan also had something to do.

The other six companions gathered in Zhu Yuanliang's room and waited. Soon, Pu Zixuan ran in and said in a true voice: "I have asked clearly. This time, my father only brought Ning Wanqiu, a master and two ordinary followers. Zhang Dahui has not recovered since the purification power was sealed last year, and his health is not good, so he has not followed him. However, they have developed extremely strong lightning storage technology, saying that they do not need real lightning in their bodies at all. They only need to place a machine box in the lightning weather, and the box can be filled with lightning. At that time, I can get electricity from the box."

Chen Shuqing said "um" and asked, "So, have you told them the news of Jenny's death?"

Pu Zixuan's eyes quickly became melancholy and said sadly: "Tell me, I told them everything that has happened over the past year, whether it is good or bad. Ning Wanqiu said that his father was very sad, but he had expected this ending. His father said that Jenny had gone to his dreams many times, entrusted him with a dream, and asked him to get rid of the Red Yasha as soon as possible and avenge himself."

Zhu Yuanliang was indignant and said, "Well, right! Isn't our trip to Gansu to destroy the Red Yasha? Did Uncle Pu say when will they come to meet us?"

"I said that they were planning to come to Gansu, but Zhejiang is too far from Dunhuang. Even if they rush to come, it will take three or four months." Zhu Yuanliang smiled and said, "When they come, our battle will probably be over. By then, all the powerful characters in the demon world will be destroyed, and the remaining wild monsters will all become our friendly forces."

But Pu Zixuan didn't give her face: "Well, I haven't thought about it yet. After all, my father worked hard to return to the UK to develop lightning storage technology. If it is useless, wouldn't it be a waste of work? Besides, my father would want to kill the Red Yasha with his own hands. If I can use his technology to eliminate the Red Yasha, wouldn't it be the most perfect ending? What do you think?"

Chen Shuqing said leisurely: "This is the last battle with the demon world, and it can be fought anytime. However, we can't reach the Devil City and can't even touch the enemy. What's the use of saying that? Anyway, wait for Xu Yungen to come later to see if the mystery of the Devil City can be solved."

Everyone was talking and talking, and soon after, a man's voice came from outside the door: "Pu Zixuan, Pu Zixuan, which room are you in?"

"Oh, Boss Xu is here. He dares to come. He must have brought news..." After saying that, Pu Zixuan responded loudly and went out to greet him excitedly.

The person who came was Xu Yungen, but he not only brought news, but also brought a beautiful woman.

Pu Zixuan brought the two of them into the house. As soon as Xu Yungen entered the door, he introduced: "Come on, let me introduce you to you. This is my inner friend, Long Xueru. Sorry, she heard about you and insisted on following me to this inn and said she would talk to you in person."

Xu Yungen said "sorry", but his tone was filled with a hint of unconscious showing off. It seemed that he was quite proud of marrying such a beautiful woman as his wife and had never shown off to outsiders.

The woman was Long Xueru who made a special trip to Longle Village that day. After seeing the seven people, she quickly glanced over them and said softly: "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven..." After counting, she was a little disappointed and couldn't help asking: "It turns out that there are only seven people. Do you have any other companions in your journey?"

The seven people immediately looked at me and I looked at you, and looked at you, looking at Long Xueru's inexplicable behavior.

But after being confused, he had to call him, Pu Zixuan took a step forward awkwardly, bowed and said, "There are no other companions, only seven of us. Miss Long nodded for us when she came. What does it mean?"

Long Xueru smiled slightly to express her apology, and then explained: "Sorry, our Longle Village has encountered a huge disaster recently, which forced me to think of a ancestral teaching: Longle Village has nine stars, which can be a real dragon, can destroy the dragon, and save the people from water and fire.' If you have nine people, it would be fine, then you must have come to save our village. Unfortunately, you only have seven people..."

Pu Zixuan responded with a smile: "No matter whether he is seven or nine, we have indeed saved many villages. To be honest, we came to Gansu this time to eliminate the demon king Hanba entrenched in the Mingsha Mountain Desert. However, in the past two days, we went to the desert. We clearly saw the Devil City in front of us, but we could not get close to it. We hoped that the two of us could tell us the truth and help us. As long as we could enter the Devil City, the rest would be left to us."

I thought that Xu Yungen would come here with his wife, so he must be confident about how to enter the Devil City. Unexpectedly, Long Xueru, like Xu Yungen, said at a loss: "Sorry, I don't know how to enter the Devil City, and I have never entered the depths of the desert."

After hearing this, Pu Zixuan looked at Xu Yungen unconsciously, as if saying: Brother, since she doesn't know, why are you bringing her here? How can I pay you money like this?

Zhu Yuanliang couldn't hold back and said what he thought: "Look, I'll just say that this guy is here to show off his beautiful woman!"

Xu Yungen's expression suddenly became awkward, but Long Xueru disagreed with Zhu Yuanliang's rudeness, and asked further: "Tell me, does drought really exist in this world?"

Long Xueru's expression was extremely serious, as if this was a big issue related to her fate.

Pu Zixuan nodded, "Yes, Drought Bruce exists, he is one of the four demon kings."

Long Xueru said in a daze: "Why are you so sure? Have you ever seen a drought-bah?"

"Haha, that's it..." Although Pu Zixuan heard the name of Hanba repeatedly along the way, experienced an earthquake on Fengzhou Island in Leshan, fought against Qin Yong in the heartbreaking valley of Guangxi, and rescued Sun Xiaoshu in Henan, he had already indirectly fought with Hanba in the incidents of incidents such as the famous demon king.

In fact, only one of the seven people in the team had met Drought directly.

This person is Chen Shuqing. She stepped forward and said, "I've seen it."

Long Xueru looked at Chen Shuqing in an instant. As soon as she entered the room, she was attracted by Chen Shuqing's unique hair color. Seeing Chen Shuqing say this, she was shocked and said: "So, can the drought bar turn humans into zombies?"

Chen Shuqing nodded slightly: "Yes."

Long Xueru thought for a moment and murmured: "It seems that the legend passed down by our Long family is indeed true."

Seeing that the two sides had already had a conversation to such an extent, Xu Yungen quickly handed over: "Pu Zixuan, although my wife doesn't know the truth about the Devil City, the legends about Hanba and Yinglong have been circulating in the ancestors of their Long family. If she tells you all this information, it will definitely inspire you. You can just pay me a few taels of silver, right?"

Any useful news is progress, Pu Zixuan smiled generously and replied: "Yes."

So Xu Yungen ordered Long Xueru with a smile: "Wife, they are willing to pay, just tell them everything you know."
