Since Shen Cheng's investigation has made some progress, there is no need to continue the investigation of others.
The three groups gathered together and took a car back to Dr. Xiaoliang's home.
On the way, Liu Xiaobao carried a bag of rice, and Liusu picked some vegetables to prepare dinner for tonight.
The food here in the West is quite expensive.
So the people in the car saw that Chen Cheng and Liu Su, two special investigators from the Institute of Biological Sciences, were standing in front of a vegetable stall, bargaining with an old lady.
From time to time, Shen Cheng and Liu Su both got into the car triumphantly with smiles on their faces.
After getting off the car, Liu Xiaobao picked up the bag of rice as if nothing had happened, and terrifying muscles suddenly bulged out on his originally thin arms.
The corners of Shen Cheng's mouth twitched slightly, but adhering to the principle that girls should not be asked to do hard labor, he still took the rice from Liu Xiaobao.
"Thank you." Liu Xiaobao felt his shoulders lighten and smiled at Shen Cheng.
Then, Liu Xiaobao turned his head again and looked at the other three men with disgust.
Ji Yuanqiu quickly waved his hands: "Don't look at me, I'm just a thin dog."
Shao Silin nodded immediately: "I am also a thin dog."
Then everyone's eyes were focused on Dong Yuanhua.
Dong Yuanhua: “…”
Please, even if you let me practice martial arts for another ten years, I still can't be as strong as that muscular woman, okay?
“Little brother~” As soon as the door was opened, Feicui rushed towards Shen Cheng.
Liusu misstepped and stood in front of Shen Cheng, and was hugged by Feicui.
Feeling the softness pressed tightly against her chest, Liusu raised the corners of her mouth: "So enthusiastic, coming up and hugging me."
"Who wants to hug you? I want to hug my little brother." Feicui curled her lips, and seeing that Shen Cheng was still carrying rice on his shoulders, she quickly made way.
Walking into the kitchen and putting the rice in the corner, Shen Cheng straightened up.
Although the weight of this bag of rice was nothing to Shen Cheng, Shen Cheng still subconsciously wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.
"Brother, what are we having for dinner tonight?" Jade leaned over and asked with anticipation.
Originally, Feicui was planning to continue eating radishes at noon today, but she was afraid that Chen Cheng would not have the ingredients to cook in the evening, so she had to eat instant noodles with Dr. Xiaoliang.
"There's some leftover beef from yesterday, so we can have another meal today." Shen Cheng replied with a smile.
This snake is also quite miserable. It has not had a proper meal since it turned into Huanya. It follows Dr. Xiaoliang to eat instant noodles and cucumbers every day.
The meal that Shen Cheng made last night almost made the snake cry.
"Beef..." Feicui opened her mouth blankly, revealing her two sharp teeth and a line of saliva at the corner of her mouth.
Looking at the fangs of Jade, Shen Cheng couldn't help but think.
Speaking of which, the poison of the Emerald Snake is quite strong. I wonder if it can still maintain its original toxicity after turning into a Huanya.
Noticing that Chen Cheng was staring at her teeth, Feicui guessed what Chen Cheng was thinking and couldn't help but smiled charmingly: "Little brother, do you want to try it?"
As she spoke, Feicui's eyes drifted towards Chen Cheng's lower body intentionally or unintentionally...
Chen Cheng's legs tightened slightly, and he said calmly: "I have to go to a meeting. It's still a while before dinner. If you are hungry, you can eat a carrot first."
"I want to eat my brother's carrot~" Jade said while licking her lips.
"Here!" Chen Cheng pretended not to understand, took out a radish from the bag and threw it to Feicui: "Remember to wash it before eating."
Looking at the radish in her hand, Feicui's face fell: "Tsk!"
Walking out of the kitchen, he saw Liusu and others already sitting around the sofa, so Shen Cheng hurried forward and sat next to Liusu.
Feicui held a radish in her mouth and sat next to Shen Cheng.
Dr. Xiaoliang glanced at the jadeite and said nothing more. He placed the tablet on the coffee table and said to everyone, "Everyone, take a look."
A few people looked over and saw that the tablet contained the photo that Chen Cheng had taken on the parchment not long ago.
"Is this... a canyon?" Dong Yuanhua frowned and said.
He studied ancient martial arts and was quite sensitive to this kind of abstract painting with a sense of age.
Dr. Xiaoliang nodded. "This is a photo taken by Shen Diao from local villagers. According to the locals, the canyon in this picture is called Mianlongya, and it's located within the Kunlun Mountains."
"Mianlong Cliff... Could it be that this place is related to the incident of Longyin?" Liu Xiaobao couldn't help but ask.
Only Dr. Xiaoliang heard the conversation between Chen Cheng and Ji Yuanqiu and the old man. The communications of the others were not connected at that time, so everyone was still somewhat unaware of the matter.
"Did Chen Cheng find out? As expected..." Liu Su couldn't help but sigh.
Dr. Yu Lan's judgment in asking Shen Cheng to come and carry out the mission together was indeed correct.
"And this is the conversation between Counselor Shen and the old man. I recorded it in advance." After letting everyone see the photos, Dr. Xiaoliang fiddled with the tablet twice and played a recording.
After the recording ended, Dr. Xiaoliang brought out the photo again, and Liusu and the others fell silent.
After all, this kind of story is too mythical, but now they have to investigate it as a fact.
It feels... quite inconsistent.
"If the story the old man told matches the facts, then it means that we can indeed find clues about the strange phenomenon in the sky that night from the dragon's roar." Dr. Xiaoliang said seriously.
Because if this story really matches the facts, it means that the strange phenomenon in the sky can really bring about a devastating disaster!
They cannot help but take this point seriously!
"Then... where is the exact location of this Sleeping Dragon Cliff?" Liusu asked.
Dr. Xiaoliang shook his head. "We have no clue. We only know it's in Kunlun Mountain... but that's not right. We have no way of confirming whether there's a place like Mianlongya in Kunlun Mountain. After all, there's no mention of such a place in local historical records. We can only rely on you to investigate."
Everyone: “…”
In other words, were the six of them to aimlessly search for a canyon in the vast Kunlun Mountains, a canyon they didn't even know existed?
More importantly, they only had a photo and didn’t even know the size of the canyon!
Isn't this no different from when they went to the mountains like headless flies to look for Dragon's Roar?
“This place seems so familiar…” At this moment, Feicui, who had been chewing on a radish beside Shen Cheng, suddenly spoke.
Shen Cheng was slightly stunned, then turned around and asked, "Have you been to this place?"
Jade shook her head: "I have never been to Kunlun Mountain, but this place is somewhat familiar to me. I must have seen this kind of place before."
Dr. Xiaoliang said, "We took her in from Xishan."
Dr. Xiaoliang suddenly thought of something and said, "Wait a minute. The Himalayan pit viper's habitat is primarily on the southern slopes of the Himalayas. If we start with terrain similar to the southern slopes of the Himalayas in the Kunlun Mountains, wouldn't that be easier?"
