Chapter 17: Ancient Dragon Palace

　　 The high sun in the middle of the sky caused the temperature of the mountains to rise sharply, and the body temperature was close to 30 degrees.
　　 The key is that this area has only gone through a big fire, and there is soot everywhere. The volcano not far away was still erupting a cloud of gray smoke. The strong smell of sulfur pungent people out of breath.
　　 The expedition team was wearing safety helmets and thick filter masks, and each one was boring and dying.
　　 Xu Yin was sweating all over her forehead. Wei Zhenzhen was even more tired and speechless.
　　 Had it not been for Gao Xuan to lead the way, Wei Zhen would really have complained. In order to show his maturity and sensibility, Wei Zhenzhen could only grit his teeth and endure it.
　　The situation of other students is similar.
　　 They came all the way, and they didn't suffer much. Such a harsh environment makes everyone complain.
　　 It's just that Wang Hongen's face is cold, and no one dares to complain loudly.
　　Only Gao Xuan and Yun Qingshang are the most relaxed. Although the two were wearing heavy wolf leather clothes and pants, there was no sweat on their faces and they walked briskly.
　　 Other people don’t care. They all thought Gao Xuan and Yun Qingshang were locals, and being able to walk in the mountains was a talent skill.
　　 "Professor Wang, we are too close to the volcano..."
　　 Seeing that the distance to the volcano is getting closer and closer, Xu Yin is a little uneasy. If the volcano erupts, they will have nowhere to run.
　　 "Don't worry, we have Gao Xuan."
　　Wang Hongen has sensed that the dragon tooth key in his arms is getting hotter and hotter, even if the volcano really erupts, he won't leave.
　　 Of course, at this time he still has a reasonable argument. Gao Xuan is a good excuse.
　　 Xu Yin was full of suspicion. She felt Wang Hongen was very abnormal.
　　 Gao Xuan turned around and said to Xu Yin: "Professor Xu don't worry, the volcano is very stable these days and won't erupt."
　　 "Gao Xuan, I'm not afraid of this kind of thing, just in case."
　　 Xu Yin is really willing to trust Gao Xuan, but as the team leader, she doesn't want to take the students to take unnecessary risks.
　　 was originally an ordinary survey, so there is no need to go deep into the volcano.
　　 "Nothing in case."
　　 Gao Xuan smiled and said: "Professor Xu, I am more afraid of death than anyone. I will not make fun of my life."
　　 Hearing Gao Xuan's words, Xu Yin believed it a little bit. Yes, Gao Xuan and Wang Hongen have nothing to do with him, and there is no need to risk his life to help him.
　　 Wei Zhenzhen couldn't help but praised from the side: "Brother Gao Xuan, you are so amazing!"
　　 "The eruption of a volcano also needs sufficient conditions."
　　 Gao Xuan confidently said: "This volcano is like a man. After a large-scale release, it will not erupt again in a short time at least."
　　 Xu Yin was a little bit embarrassed, and she started drag racing as she spoke, she was not prepared.
　　 Wei really grinned, and I don’t know if he really understood it.
　　Wang Hongen has no feeling for vulgar jokes. He said loudly: "Everyone keep going, don't stop. You are very close to your destination."
　　 Xu Yin felt that it was not right, but there was no reason to object. After hesitating, she could only sigh gently to follow the team.
　　 "An ancient legend says that there is a fire dragon in this mountain. Because of its evil behavior, it was sealed by the gods..."
　　 Gao Xuan's mouth couldn't be idle, and the others were exhausted and unable to speak, so he talked about the ancient legend here.
　　 "So, this place is called Chilong Mountain."
Gao Xuan said: "If you look at this scientifically, it means that this volcano erupted in ancient times and caused great harm to the ancestors. Out of the simple and primitive ideas, the ancestors endowed the volcano with spirituality and hoped that the volcano would be honest. , Don't erupt..."
　　 Although Wei Zhenzhen is weak, he is still willing to support Gao Xuan, "Brother Gao Xuan, you know a lot."
　　 "Primitive religion always entrusts the simplest emotions of the ancestors, no matter how it is deformed, it is easier to interpret."
　　 Gao Xuan was born again, although he hadn't studied these specifically, he still had some insights.
　　 Other girls also agree and admire. After contacting these two days, they found that Gao Xuan was not only handsome and unreasonable, but also very knowledgeable and talented.
　　 In contrast, the boys on the expedition team seemed too frivolous and ignorant.
Zhou Jun, who had always seen Gao Xuan displeased, couldn’t help. He pointedly said,
I don’t see it, you grew up in a ravine and understood quite a lot. But what you said is wrong. We are all immigrants from the home planet. There are no ancient ancestors, let alone primitive worship..."
"Ha ha……"
　　 Gao Xuan smiled: "Three thousand years ago, a group of immigrants from the parent star landed on Pegasus. In just a few hundred years, the number of immigrants has increased hundreds of times. However, it has also accumulated huge social conflicts."
　　 Gao Xuan said:
These people think that smart optical brains and robots have robbed the people at the bottom of the job opportunities and destroyed the most basic human creativity. Therefore, these people moved to the Bailong Mountains without using any smart devices.
　　 Over time, these anti-intellectual people degenerate to their original state. Moreover, Pegasus has aboriginal people. The genetic similarity to modern humans reaches 97%.
　　 Because of conflicts with modern humans, some aborigines retreated into the Bailong Mountains. This part of the aborigines also intermarried with the modern people who retreated into the mountainous area, and the Bailong Mountains gradually evolved into the present traditions..."
　　 This period of history is very dark, and modern civilization has no records at all, let alone recorded in textbooks.
　　Only professors like Wang Hongen and Xu Yin who specialize in related researches know this knowledge.
　　 Zhou Jun knew nothing about this and was said to be dumbfounded. He hesitated for a while before reluctantly said: "These are all fabricated by you!"
　　 Xu Yin glanced at Zhou Jun:
As a Mingjing student, don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know. This is also the basic academic spirit.

　　 Xu Yin has always been gentle to people, and rarely criticizes students directly in public. This attitude can be called harsh.
　　 Zhou Jun's face is red and his ears are red, and he lowered his head and dared not say any more.
　　 There was a burst of laughter around the boys and girls. Zhou Jun, who always likes to show off, is not very popular.
　　Wang Hongen didn't care about these little things. He was really interested in the history of the Bailong Mountains that Gao Xuan said.
　　 The dragon tooth key in his arms is an antique passed down from the Bailong Mountains.
　　 He obtained this dragon tooth key, studied many ancient records and legends, and finally concluded that it was a key to unlock the treasure.
　　 This time he worked so hard to lead the team, just to find the treasure.
　　 What Wang Hongen didn't expect was that Gao Xuan, a young man in the mountain, knew so much about local customs and legends. And can analyze these legends so rationally and scientifically.
　　Wang Hongen asked: "The Bailong Mountains seem to have ancient civilization sites. Have you heard of it?"
"I've heard."
　　 Gao Xuan said: "The so-called dragon totem worship did not come from the mother star. It came from the aborigines. It is said that the dragon totem worship originated from the ancient wisdom race of Pegasus."
　　 "It's not just what you said casually, what evidence do you have to prove the existence of ancient intelligent races?"
　　 Zhou Jun asked loudly. He listened for a long time, and finally seized the opportunity, wanting to regain his face.
　　The ancient wisdom civilization has always been controversial, and there has never been any clear conclusion. There are so many things that experts and scholars don't understand, but Gao Xuan said so surely, why is he reading www.uukanshu.com?
　　 "It's very simple. The strange things circulating everywhere are proof. Without the ancient wisdom and civilization, these strange things come from."
　　 Gao Xuan thinks this truth is very simple, there is no need to say more.
　　 "A strange thing?"
　　 Zhou Jun and other students are all at a loss. With their knowledge and contact levels, they don’t even know the existence of strange things.
　　Wang Hongen and Xu Yin both changed their faces slightly. This young man who grew up in the mountain forest has a bit too broad knowledge. He actually knows strange things!
　　 strange things are called strange things because they cannot be understood by humans and are extremely rare.
　　 Ordinary people may know the extraordinary, but few know the existence of strange things.
　　 People who don't know are all unclear and stern.
　　 Gao Xuan is very satisfied with this effect. He said this deliberately to stimulate Wang Hongen.
　　 Wang Hongen's expression is not right. It seems that he has something special to unlock the ancient ruins.
　　 Xu Yin was shocked by his knowledge.
　　 Gao Xuanzheng wanted to try a few more words. Wang Hongen's expression suddenly changed. He reached into his arms and pointed something forward. The air in front of him vibrated and heavy mist rose.
　　 The sudden change shocked everyone on the expedition team.
　　 Wang Hongen said loudly, "Get together, don’t move."
　　 Fortunately, the fog quickly dissipated, but there was an unusually huge hole in front of everyone.
　　 This cave was obviously built, and there is a long stepped passage leading to the depths.
　　 The sudden change was so magical that everyone was stunned.
　　Only Gao Xuan was a little excited: It turned out that the Underground Dragon Palace was covered by a special space barrier, which required strange objects to open, no wonder he couldn't find it!
