Chapter 159: Flooded Shadow Corps

~17 min read 3,285 words

"Whoosh whoosh-!"
The shadows under the three Lasu people suddenly extended outward.
Black shadows shot outwards with the three of them as the center, and finally spread all over the corners of the hotel room. Even the walls and ceiling were covered with black shadows.
Under the suspicious gazes of Jackie Chan and others, the soldiers of the Black Shadow Corps leaned out from inside.
The soldiers on the walls and ceiling were even perpendicular to the ground. This unscientific sight made Jackie Chan and the others dumbfounded.
Although I have heard my father talk about demons before, I have some general understanding of the other side of the world.
But most of them are just half-convinced.
After all, I haven't seen it with my own eyes.
Until now with the appearance of the Black Shadow Corps, even the most stubborn Jackie Chan has nothing to say.
He is one of those people who believes that seeing is believing.
At this time, he really saw this unscientific incident, and Jackie Chan finally began to take the matter of the Eight Demons to his heart.
"Uncle Long!"
Looking at the group of soldiers from the Black Shadow Corps around her, Xiaoyu was not afraid, but her little face turned red with excitement.
At this time, I called Jackie Chan, which was just to express my feelings.
But she quickly shouted: "Uncle Long! They are here to steal things!"
After Xiaoyu shouted loudly to remind him, Jackie Chan also saw a soldier from the Shadow Corps picking up the jade pendant placed aside, sinking his body, and was about to return to the shadow.
Behind him, two soldiers from the Black Shadow Corps appeared, restraining Jackie Chan's body and trying to take Jackie Chan into the shadow.
Jackie Chan noticed that the touch under his feet was like a swamp, and he also sensed that something was wrong!
He quickly broke away from the shadow soldiers holding his arms behind him and threw one of them in front of him. Jackie Chan stepped on its body and escaped from the shadow under his feet!
As soon as he escaped, Jackie Chan swooped over and snatched the Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant back from the hands of the shadow soldiers.
As soon as the jade pendant was obtained, all the shadow soldiers in the room immediately turned their attention to Jackie Chan.
Being stared at by so many scarlet eyes, Jackie Chan was a little nervous.
He took two steps back, not forgetting to pick up the bronze sword and the ancient painting with his feet.
"Other things don't matter. These are antiques and must not be lost."
Just being watched by so many pairs of eyes, Jackie Chan didn't have much confidence that he could keep these antiques.
At this moment, Tang Mu blew a loud whistle towards Jackie Chan, pointed at himself with a smile, and motioned for Jackie Chan to help him keep it.
Jackie Chan hesitated slightly, and the shadow soldiers in the room had already rushed towards Jackie Chan!
Seeing this, Jackie Chan could only choose to believe Tang Mu, and threw the jade pendant, ancient sword and ancient painting towards Tang Mu on the other side of the room!
Just as the three items were thrown, Jackie Chan was thrown to the ground by the shadow soldiers rushing from all directions!
Because Jackie Chan was also one of the targets ordered by the Holy Lord, the group of soldiers who knocked Jackie Chan down did not leave and still tightly controlled Jackie Chan.
Another group of shadow soldiers who moved a little slower then focused on the jade pendant.
Their eyes followed the three ancient objects until they saw it falling into Tang Mu's hands, and they all started to move, wanting to rush up and snatch the Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant!
Seeing this, Tom Mu quickly jumped onto the table and stood up.
Holding the ancient sword and ancient painting in his left hand, he held the Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant in his right hand and held it high in the air. He opened his mouth wide below, as if he would eat the Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant if he disagreed with her.
When the group of shadow soldiers saw this, they did hesitate for a moment and even looked at each other.
But soon, this group of soldiers seemed to reach a consensus.
It doesn't matter if the jade pendant is eaten by a cat, as long as you take the cat back with you.
Seeing that he could not frighten the soldiers of the Black Shadow Corps, Tang Mu simply relaxed his fingers on the jade pendant.
The tiger talisman jade pendant immediately fell into its mouth, slid all the way down to its belly, and then slid to the tip of its tail again without stopping.
It can be clearly seen that Tang Mu's tail now looks like a tiger charm and jade pendant.
As we all know, Tom Cat's intestines and stomach lead directly to his tail.
Not only did he eat the Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant, but Tang Mu even ate the bronze sword and ancient paintings together.
Patting his stomach, Tom Mu ignored the crowd of shadow soldiers and laughed loudly. He ran a dozen steps on the table, then ejected and rushed into the bathroom nearby!
Don't forget to close the bathroom door with a "bump"!
Not to mention Jackie Chan and the others, even the soldiers of the Black Shadow Corps were fooled by Tom Mu.
They have never seen this scene before.
I have no idea what kind of character Tom Mu is.
They looked at each other. After all, you are all ruthless machines for executing tasks. You don't have many thoughts in your mind. It is more important to complete the orders of the Holy Lord.
Now that the jade pendant has been eaten by the cat, they can only take the cat back with them.
It doesn't matter if it's a dead cat or a living cat.
This group of shadow soldiers with cold temperament held shuriken darts in their hands, looking on guard.
One of the leading shadow soldiers leftAt the front, he came to the bathroom door, stretched his hand to the door handle, and planned to let his companions shoot darts together the moment the door was opened.

Being suppressed by a group of shadow soldiers, Jackie Chan was a little worried when he saw this scene. While struggling hard, he shouted loudly towards the bathroom: "Tom, take your things and run away first!"
On the other side, the shadow soldier had already put his hand on the door handle.
However, just as he was about to turn the door handle, he heard the sound of running water coming from inside.
The bathroom door in front of him began to bulge outward, like a water-filled balloon.
The shadow soldier was a little surprised and took two steps back unconsciously. Looking at the door that was getting bigger and bigger in front of him, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
The shadow soldiers just had a bad premonition.
Jackie Chan, who already had a certain understanding of Tang Mu's abilities, almost stared out of his eyes.
"Xiaoyu! Climb on the crocodile's back!"
As Jackie Chan spoke, he took a deep breath and then held his breath in advance.
The little snake has a strong sense of self-preservation and moves very quickly.
Anyway, there were no shadow soldiers bothering her.
Seeing Jackie Chan and Xiaoyu's actions, she jumped out of the window without thinking, and climbed up dexterously with the help of the drainage pipe next to her. In a short time, she climbed to the roof of the hotel.
At the same time, a violent explosion suddenly came from the room where Jackie Chan and the others were located below!
The bathroom door grew bigger and bigger, and finally burst open at a critical point!
Like opening a floodgate to release water, a large amount of tap water rushed open the bathroom door and rolled out like a flood!
The group of shadow soldiers blocking the bathroom door were the first to bear the brunt. They only had time to widen their eyes before they were swept up by the violent current and rushed towards the window without any resistance!
Like the shadow soldiers, the three Lasu people were also swept up by the current. They exclaimed and lifted off their feet from the ground, rushing towards the window together!
Fortunately, Jackie Chan and Xiaoyu were prepared in advance.
Jackie Chan held his breath in advance. After the group of shadow soldiers pressing on him were washed away by the water, they regained their freedom.
Xiaoyu hugged the gharial's back and was not affected much in the water.
The gharial even lifted Xiaoyu above the water.
It's just that the water pouring out of the bathroom is too big and too much.
It's like a river dam opening its gates to release water. The water is turbulent and endless!
After the group of shadow soldiers were rushed out of the window on the third floor of the hotel by the flood, Jackie Chan and Xiaoyu couldn't resist, and were eventually rushed out of the window together.
In just a few seconds of water release, the street below seemed to have turned into a new river.
Jackie Chan struggled to hug a flooded telegraph pole on the street, and watched in shock as the group of shadow soldiers who looked very troublesome at first glance were washed away by the wave of water!
Jackie Chan is really difficult to understand.
Where did so much water come from in a small bathroom? It is almost the same as a flood!
This scene really goes beyond Jackie Chan's worldview.
Even if there are demons in the world and the soldiers of the Black Shadow Corps just now, as a staunch materialist, Jackie Chan can still understand and try to accept it.
But Tom is different. The cat doesn't understand any reason or logic at all, which can easily cause Jackie Chan's brain to shut down.
At the same time, Tom Mu, the initiator of all this, was still in the bathroom.
It uses the bathtub as a boat, sitting in it and floating gently.
Feeling that it was almost done, he stretched out his paw and gently turned the faucet. After a series of "chirping" metal friction sounds, the water flow was gradually cut off.
Without the continuous water supply from the faucet, the artificial flood finally slowly stopped.
The drainage from the room window gradually became gentler.
The water flow, which was like a flood from the beginning, began to decrease. In a few seconds, it became visible to the naked eye like a gurgling stream.
"Quack"
Several yellow plastic ducks floated on the water and flowed out of the third-floor window of the hotel.
Several little yellow ducks fell into the river on the road below and swayed on the water.
A black shadow fell from the sky, and with a "crash" sound like a depth bomb, the plastic little yellow ducks were smashed into the water.
It turned out that Tang Mu was sitting in the white porcelain bathtub, and he also fell down from the third floor window.
At this time, it was just like a small boat, floating on the river.
Looking up, the third floor of this hotel is really like a small waterfall.
Even if the faucet has been turned off, there is still a steady stream of water flowing out of the windows on the third floor.
Then look forward along the river.
The group of black shadow soldiers who were still in the room before and caused some trouble to Jackie Chan, as well as the Lasu trio were all gone at this moment.
This river, which flows on the road and automatically avoids buildings, has long carried them and drifted to who knows where.
"Wow!"
The sound of water sounded, and Tang Mu used the bathtub as a boat to row to Jackie Chan.
Jackie Chan let go of the telephone pole and jumped into the bathtub.
The bathtub shook slightly, but it still floated well and showed no signs of sinking.
Rowing the bathtub, Tang Mu came to Xiaoyu again.
Xiaoyu climbed up from the back of the gharial and jumped into the bathtub.
"Tom! How did you do it!"
Xiaoyu looked at the river at her feet, feeling extremely excited.
When Tang Mu heard this, he tidied the hair on his head very coquettishly, looking quite proud.
Then Tang Mu pointed to the gharial next to the bathtub and motioned to Xiaoyu to look at it.
Seeing this, Xiaoyu stopped worrying about Tang Mu's problem and looked at the crocodile that she had been getting along with day and night during this period.
The gharial hid its body under the water, only revealing a pair of vertical pupils to look at Xiaoyu.
Although neither party communicated.
But Xiaoyu also knew that it was time to separate.
The gharial swung its tail, and finally turned its head and got into the deep water, swinging its huge body, and swam away along the river.
Watching the olive-green figure in the river gradually disappear, Jackie Chan and Xiaoyu both withdrew their gazes.
Jackie Chan reached out and rubbed Xiaoyu's head: "Okay, it's time for us to go home."
Xiaoyu's depressed mood did not last long, and she quickly regained her energy and laughed happily.

Three days later.
Xiangjiang, a temporary conference room.
William, who had returned to Xiangjiang first, was looking excited at this time.
He opened his arms and floated in mid-air.
The excitement on his face could not be suppressed at all.
"I'm floating!"
William shouted excitedly, looked at the coffee cup in his hand, and poured out the coffee inside.
The lumps of brown liquid did not fall with gravity. Instead, they floated slightly in the air and were sucked in by William who stretched his head and opened his mouth.
At this time, the small area where William was located was not much different from the zero-gravity environment.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, no one would believe that such bizarre objects actually existed in the world.
This temporary conference room is now full of people.
These people are all members of William's research laboratory in the United States, and naturally among them is Meng Qi, the investor's representative.
Because William really made a big discovery, the group of people who were still in the United States couldn't sit still. They rushed over by plane as soon as possible and did preliminary research on the Tianxing Gem.
"We used various means to analyze it, from spectroscopes to MRIs. Unbelievably, its atomic spectrum does not match any material we know on earth."
"This also includes the spectrum used by the Icarus project. This spectrum was the last one transmitted back by the probe before it flew out of the solar system and disintegrated."
"William, this meteorite you brought back really has great research value."
One of the doctors said, and then added: "It's just that one meteorite is still too little. If possible, we hope to find more, which will not only be conducive to the development of experiments, but also a key boost to external commercial development."
William was floating in the air. Hearing what the American doctor said, he slowly put away his excitement and said, "Jack said that the Sky Star Gemstone was given to Disha by the Qin Dynasty. If there are really other meteorites, there will be no other meteorites." The only possibility is within China."
"That's not my sister's territory, nor is it the territory of other countries. Don't say it hasn't been found yet, but if you really find the location of the meteorite, what are you going to do? China won't watch you mine it."
"Hahaha! That's not easy. Isn't that place recruiting investment recently? As long as your good friend finds the location of the meteorite and spends more money, everything will not be difficult."
The doctor raised his head as he spoke, looking very proud.
The topic had reached this point, and William stopped floating and fell back on the chair. He looked at the bearded doctor again and asked curiously: "Will you tell them about the Sky Star Gem?"
"How is that possible! If we tell them, and they are not stupid, they will definitely stop us from mining. No matter how much money we give, it will be useless. The value of these meteorites is enough to affect the destiny of the country. Even if we don't want it, we can't Leave it to them."
When the American doctor said this, he seemed confident and confident, his words were full of arrogance, and he did not feel that there was anything wrong with his actions.
After all, William was still a Chinese. Although he had a high degree of acceptance of Western culture, he still instinctively sensed something was wrong. He frowned and asked, "What if those meteorites are in the tomb of Qin Shihuang?"
"Same, if it is really in Qin Shihuang's mausoleum, that would be even better. We can also make some extra money and sell some things at the auction. William, you will not be short of scientific research funds."
The bearded doctor said serious words in a joking tone, and a group of people around him also showed tacit smiles on their faces.
If you can quietly evacuate China's treasures, why not do it?
William slowly frowned as he looked at the expressions on everyone's faces in the conference room.
This group of people, the descendants of pirates and colonists, seem to be doing what their ancestors did again.
Robbery, deception and deception.
As long as you can achieve your goal, it doesn't matter if you become a monster in another country's land.
That kind of arrogance has simply been engraved in my bones.
Even so, William still didn't say anything.
His institute also needs a lot of financial support from investors so that he can continue his research and take his dream of becoming a great scientist one step further.
When you need something from someone, even if you have something else in mindWilliam still didn't express his thoughts in front of these Americans.
I just called them thieves and robbers in my heart.
"Your archeology friend is very good, so you should continue to follow him and let him find other meteorites. When everything is completed, you will become a great scientist remembered by people all over the world."
When the bearded doctor said this, William couldn't help but start to admire him.
I have to say that the Sky Star Gem really gave William a lot of hope.
Even though I know that it is not good to cooperate with them, I still can't help my selfishness.
Taking out the phone, William made a call to Jackie Chan.
When he was in Disha, he came back early.
However, three days have passed since the last trip to Disha. William estimated that Jackie Chan should have returned to Xiangjiang by now.
The call now is to ask Jackie Chan to find the location of the remaining Tianxing gems.
"Dudu——"
When the call was connected, William immediately asked: "Jack, have you returned to Xiangjiang?"
"I'm back. I arrived yesterday. I'm at Dad's antique shop now, but I'm leaving soon and have to go inland again. Dad said that the Moon Demon Cursed Blue is about to be resurrected."
