Ghost Blows Out the Light - Vol 2 Chapter 23
“Magic Mountain?” My mechanical watches either stopped or walked fast and slow in the past two days. I thought it was a cheap watch. The quality was not good. It broke in the desert. Could we be near those two magnetic mountains?
An Liman also remembered that people heard that in the hinterland of the Black Desert, there are two red mountains and one white mountain of Zagrama. It is said that the two holy mountains are buried with the first sage.
Shirley Yang also said: “If there are really two mountains in the desert, then the Zidu Underground River may be intercepted by the magnetic mountain underground, too far from the ground, so we can’t find it. I think we should not put Attention is used to find the trail of the dark river. If the legend and the British explorer are right, Magnetic Mountain should be nearby. Mr. Hu, you will use your starry Fengshui skills again tonight, do n’t Forget, as we said before, we will pay twice as much for finding the perfect ancient city. ”
I did n’t have the confidence to find the perfect city from the beginning. Listening to her saying this, I had to try it at night. If I could find the Zagrama Mountain, my salary would increase to 20,000 US dollars. Go back home.
To be honest, I ca n’t tell if I was looking forward to finding the ancient city of Jingjue. After hearing the story of the queen, a mysterious and voluptuous image lingered in my mind. The depth of the desert looked like There is an invisible magic that attracts me. I do n’t know if Professor Chen, Shirley Yang, and those expeditions who never return, do they all feel the same way as I do.
The day was exceptionally long during the day, and I wished that the sun in the sky would be shot off with a gun. The pit was dug deep and deep, but I couldn’t feel a trace of coolness.
Although the pit was supported by thick canvas, people hid in the shadows, and their bodies lay in the sand nest, still feeling as if they were placed in the oven. Ye Yixin, whose body is thin, may have been confused by the sun, and she talked nonsense while falling asleep.
Everyone was worried that she had a high fever, and she touched her forehead with her hands, as hot as the sand. It was impossible to tell whether she had a high fever or how to push her and she would not wake up.
We still have some water, which is enough for about five days, and there are still two bags of yogurt soup, which is used at the last moment. There was nothing to lose at this time. I took out a bag and let Shirley Yang give her a few sips and gave her some medicine.
After taking the medicine, Ye Yixin gradually quieted down, but was still unconscious, probably suffering from acute dehydration, which is troublesome. I told Professor Chen and others what the archaeological team is facing now.
It ’s nothing more than two roads. One road is to go back tonight. On the way back, I ’ll eat camel meat, drink salty water, and open the 11th. Even if I do this, I ca n’t guarantee Ye Yixin ’s life safety.
The other way is to continue to look for Jingjuecheng, if there is water in the city, her life will be picked up.
Professor Chen said that we are facing great difficulties. Although the archaeological cause needs dedication, but Ye Yixin is so young, we are responsible for her life. Although the first road is safe, but there is not enough water to supply, the way back will be very difficult; the second road is more adventurous, but we have arrived near Zagrama, and we have 60% confidence to find the perfect, these Ancient cities should have groundwater veins, but two thousand years later, it is unknown whether the veins have dried up and changed their course. Where do we go now, let’s all talk about our views.
The fat man first said: “I have lost two full laps around my waistline. If we go deeper into the desert, you will just call me a thinner. I suggest that you do n’t stop for a moment. As soon as the sun goes down, we will Going back, maybe you will have half your life left. ”
Hao Aiguo and Sa Di Peng are relatively stable and agree to go back.
In contrast, although it is risky to find a way to find the perfect city, there are more people worth trying. After all, everyone has paid such a lot of hardships and costs, and finally it is difficult to get to the present. Finding clean water in the ruins of the ancient city, saving Ye Yixin’s life, drinking salty sand and water on the way back, the healthy people also made it difficult, not to mention that she was so sick, going back, it was equivalent to sentenced her to death.
Shirley Yang, Chu Jian, and professor all share this view. Except for Ye Yi’s unconsciousness, only An Liman’s old man has left his position, and everyone’s eyes are focused on his face.
If his point of view is to go back, then we are exactly four to four, but An Liman is a guide, and his decision is very important in this matter.
I said to the old man An Liman: “Senior man, you have to think about it again. Your words are related to Ye Yixin’s life. What do you think we should do now?”
An Liman, holding his cigarette bag, narrowed his eyes and looked at the sun in the sky. He said, “I, of course, listen to Hu Da’s will. There is only one sun in the sky, and there is only one Almighty God in the world, Hu The conference guides us. ”
I pointed to the sky: “Then you have to hurry and ask, what did the old man Hu Da said?”
An Liman knocked the old cigarette bag, inserted it back to his waist, took the broken blanket, and began praying religiously, turning his hands inward, facing his face, chanting the scriptures, The expression is pious and solemn, not like the cunning look of ordinary people in ordinary days.
He said something in his mouth. We could n’t understand what he meant. The more he waited to finish, the fatter became anxious and asked, “I said, Master, is there anything to do?”
An Liman opened his eyes and smiled, “Hu Da, has given us a revelation.” Take out a penny coin and show it to everyone. The side of the words is to move on, the side of the painting Then go back the same way, please ask Professor Chen, the oldest person here, to throw it into the sky. The result of the fall is Hu Da ’s will.
Everyone was crying and laughing, looking at each other. Professor Chen took the coin and tossed it high into the air. Everyone looked up at the coin. The sunlight was dazzling, but the coin fell from the sky and was inserted into the sand standing.
Even after throwing 100,000 times, it may not be such a coincidence. An Li shook his head again and again, his face full of frustration, forgetting that here is the black desert abandoned by Hu Da, how could Hu Da give us a way.
We were scratching our heads and wondering, but heard Shirley Yang pointing at the distance and shouting, “God, where is Laghzama?”
The desert was so open, so thousands of miles away, I saw the direction of her finger, facing the direction where the coin fell. At the end of the world, there was a faint black line, but it was far away, and I couldn’t see it carefully if I didn’t look carefully.
We hurriedly took out the telescope and adjusted the focal length to watch. A black mountain range was like a stationary black dragon in the yellow sand of the thousands of miles. The mountain range was cut off from the middle and there was a mountain pass in the middle. These characteristics are consistent with the records in the British explorer’s notes.
Last year, Shirley Yang ’s father took an expedition with these clues to find the perfect ancient city. I do n’t know if they have seen this **** mountain. If they have been here before, what did they encounter? What keeps them from going back?
Thinking of this, I actually felt a chill in the hot sun, but this feeling was quickly diminished by the atmosphere of joy, and we traveled for a long time to die, and finally found the door to enter the ancient country at the last moment.
However, An Liman once said that there is a dreamland in the Black Desert, where mirages often appear. Those wonders are illusions that lead people to the abyss of death. Are the two **** mountains we see real? ?
I immediately thought, it should not be. First of all, the illusions in the desert are caused by the refraction of light. Those landscapes are strange, and most of them are scenes that do not exist in the desert. The black mountains have been mentioned more than once. It should be absolutely true.
Since it is not far from Jingju Ancient City, you can set off when it gets dark. However, the information we have is very limited, and most of them are inferences and related legends collected. The only reliable evidence is a vague black-and-white photo. Can you find the perfect ancient city, or even say there is such a world? It ’s hard to say in the ancient city, maybe everything is erroneous, and legends often come like this.
On the North Korean battlefield, MacArthur once said this: “At the beginning, we thought we knew everything, but then discovered that the fact is that we don’t know anything.” Now I seem to feel this way.
Was the ruins of the royal city not buried by the yellow sand again? Can water be found in the city? Was the ancient tomb where the elite queen was buried in the city, or was it somewhere else? Is there really a pile of treasure in the city? What is that monster queen? Will she pose a threat to outsiders after she dies? Did Shirley Yang’s father really die in the ancient city? Can they find their remains? What did the foreign explorers encounter in the city? For us, all this is still unknown.
In the evening, the archaeological team set out for Zagrama.
As the saying goes, Wangshan ran to a dead horse, and looked in the right direction until he came to the mountain pass in the middle of the night. At that time, the moonlight was like water, and the desert was like a silent sea. It was in this sandy sea. The mountains of Zagrama were ups and downs, and the whole body was black stones.
It is more appropriate to say that it is two super-large black stones, both of which are tens of kilometers in diameter. Only a shallow ridge is exposed in the sand sea, and a larger part is buried underground, perhaps in Below, the two boulders are connected together, and the mountain pass may just be a crack in the boulder.
This black stone contains magnets, although the average content is not high, but it can affect the precision instruments for determining the orientation. We also feel that the metal objects on our bodies gradually become heavy.
There is no reflection of the moonlight on the black stones. The black gourds in the mountain pass, except for the unconscious Ye Yixin, everyone walks down from the camel’s back. The devil’s mouth was moving with great care.
An Liman and I were ahead. After the fat Chu Chuan, Shirley Yang and others took care of Ye Yixin in the middle. The team lined up and entered the valley slowly.
This mountain was regarded as a **** mountain by ancient people. Legend has it that two ancestors were buried. This is mostly a myth. However, from the perspective of feng shui, it is really a situation where the situation is overwhelming, and the black mountain is the two black dragons. It’s false to be able to bury the first saint on the mountain. If the mountain really has the mausoleum of the exquisite queen, it is not surprising at all.
When the moon passes over the sky, the north-south valley is even darker than the fingers, and we move forward shallowly and shallowly. The more we move forward, the more uneasy we are in our hearts. Old city? I found the ancient city. Is there any water in that city? What is most worrying about is Ye Yixin’s condition. Her acute dehydration must be treated with a large amount of clean cold saline. If no water can be found within three days, her fortune is to be thrown in the desert.
Our watch stopped long ago. I don’t know how much time has passed. I intuitively estimate that it will be bright in a few moments. At this time, the camels’ breathing suddenly becomes heavy, and their emotions are obviously anxious.
An Liman old man quickly whistled and shouted, made all his efforts to calm down the group of camels. His nineteen peak camels were all male camels who were strong and strong, and had walked in the desert for so many days. This has never happened.
The surroundings had been dark all the time, and these camels’ troubles increased the fear among the team members. Shirley Yang worried that Ye Yixin had been thrown off by the camels, and he and Hao Aiguo took her off the hump.
I greeted the fat man and let him work harder. He first carried Ye Yixin. This valley is strangely tight. It is not a place to stay for a long time. Let us not delay, go out as soon as possible.
The fat man was quite happy. First, Ye Yixin didn’t have much weight. Since he entered the desert, he was skinny and lack of water. He was skinny and skinny. It was not a bad thing to carry a beautiful girl. He carried Ye Yixin on his back like a child, and repeatedly urged the front to go quickly.
However, regardless of how An Liman drove them away, the camels refused to take a half step forward, and the old man of An Liman also began to doubt and suspense, and began to whisper again, fearing that Hu Da would not let us go forward, and quickly backed away. Yes.
Seeing that it was about to come out of the valley, how the rest of the people were willing to retreat, and the team was in a mess. Shirley Yang said to me: “Is there something in front of me, scaring the camels to refuse to move forward, throwing a cold firework to pass Take a picture and see what you are doing. ”
I promised in the front, took out a cold firework for lighting, shot it brightly, and threw it forward, illuminating a small section in the valley ahead. On both sides are dark mountains and thick yellow sand on the ground. There are no grasses in the empty mountains. There is nothing unusual about it.
At the moment I walked forward a few steps and cast a second illuminated firework. My eyes lit up. There was a person sitting on the ground in the distance. When we walked over to see it, we saw that the man was wearing a white robe and his head was covered with sand. The headscarf, with a rucksack on his back, was motionless and turned out to be a dead person.
Everyone was taken aback, and it was no surprise to meet dead people or corpses in the desert, but this body was different. The deceased was a man, his head covered with a turban, only two eyes were exposed, staring at the sky, his eyes were never dead.
The time of death will not be too long, maybe within a few days, his exposed skin is only a little dry, the strangest thing is that his skin is blue, and under the fireworks, there is a slight blue light.
A few people wanted to come around and be blocked by me. This person’s death was too weird. Don’t be close. Chu Jian suddenly shouted, “Brother Hu, look, there is another dead body!”
My scalp is a little numb, there are two dead bodies, will there be more? Several cold fireworks were thrown out at random, and the surroundings were bright, and there were more than two bodies. On the ground in front, there were four male bodies lying upside down.
These deceased have the same dress, and the same method of death. They all stared in horror, and died strangely. Several Soviet-style AK47s and some backpacks were scattered on the ground.
I pulled out the engineer shovel as a weapon for self-defense, and walked over to pick up one of them and saw that the bullet was loaded. His mother was strange, who are these people? Some poachers in Xinjiang use Remington from abroad, or the imitation five or six, how can there be Soviet-made AK? Are they the tomb robbers who steal stone tombs?
I opened one of the backpacks again, and there were a lot of yellow military explosives marked in Russian. It is estimated that these arms flowed from outside the country. It was not surprising that these tomb robbers were bought to blow up the ancient tombs in the desert. Why did the guy who reached the teeth die in this valley inexplicably?
I used a gun barrel to raise the headscarf on the face of the male corpse sitting on the ground. I saw his mouth wide open. It seemed that he was shouting desperately before he died. I did n’t want to see more. Anyway, hurry away from the valley of the grave. Is the best policy. Those explosives may be used in the future. I picked up the rucksack with the explosives and prepared to let everyone leave.
At this time, Hao Aiguo came out of the team: “It doesn’t matter whether these people are tomb robbers or not, we can’t let them corpse here, carry them outside the valley and bury them. As soon as I saw the corpse wilderness, I remembered Those who were dispatched with me to the labor reform in the earthen kiln, those comrades died pitifully, and there weren’t even broken straw mats with corpses, alas, I don’t even see these … “he was nagging and moving to sit there Male corpse on the ground.
I was really anxious at this time, scolding the past to stop him: “You stink nerd, really **** somehow, don’t move these dead people!”
But it was too late. From the mouth of the male corpse, a strange snake suddenly sprang out. The scales on the snake’s body were gleaming. There was a black crown on the head, about thirty centimeters in length. Straight towards Hao Aiguo’s face.
Hao Patriotic has bad eyesight, even with good eyesight, he can’t escape with his reaction. At this instant of the electro-optical stone fire, I was so eager to save people that I had no time to think about it. Two cuts.
Hao Aiguo was sitting on the ground in shock, shaking all over, barely smiling at me: “Too … too dangerous, thanks to …”
Just halfway through the words, the half-cut snake head on the ground bounced violently, at a speed similar to the fast arrow off the string, and bite Hao Aiguo’s neck. I had seen the snake had been cut in two. Relaxed, when I thought of this, I was caught off guard and couldn’t help him.
Hao Aiguo’s face froze, a few gurgles in his throat, and he couldn’t speak again, and his skin instantly turned dark blue. He sat still and motionless and died.
Everyone was stunned, and Professor Chen fainted to the ground in front of him. I have n’t had time to feel sorry for Hao Aiguo, and suddenly I felt a cold on the back of my neck. When I looked sideways, the same monster snake somehow swam over my shoulder, spitting a letter, his muscles contracted back slightly, Opening her mouth and arching her predecessor, she was about to bite me. The strange snake’s movement was too fast, and it was impossible to hide at such a short distance.
Only fat men in the team can shoot, but he is carrying Ye Yixin, and he is not holding a gun in his hand. This change happened suddenly, and the rest of them were unprepared. I was splashed with ice water in my heart, his mother, I didn’t expect my old Hu to die here today, and I would never see the morning sun again.
I know that the poisonous snake is ready to attack, that is, the snake leans forward, and then the snake head flicks forward, biting its prey with fangs, my neck and face are all exposed within its attack range, avoiding inevitable, too late to block .
I was about to close my eyes and wait for death. Suddenly “click” a white light. The dark valley was illuminated with light. The strange snake had already pounced on my neck, and was shocked by the dazzling white light halfway. It slipped off my shoulder.
All this happened within a second. I did n’t wait for the snake to land. I waved the engineer in my hand and smashed it down. I slapped the snake head thinly. There was a lot of black ink flowing from the broken snake head. I He quickly stepped back a few steps and screamed a fluke. The poison of this snake is alive and well. If it is bitten by it, the snake venom will spread to the whole body of blood instantly, and there must be death.
Looking up, the original life-saving white light came from the flash of Shirley Yang ’s camera. She had always been inseparable from the camera, and she walked with the camera. I could not imagine that my life was saved by the flash of the camera in her hand. Thanks to her quick response, otherwise I Lao Hu has now gone to see Hu Da.
But now is not the time to thank you. Who knows if there are any other kind of monsters in this valley? If something goes out of the Yamaguchi, I will wave your hand and greet everyone to move forward quickly.
At this time, the camels may feel that there are no poisonous snakes in front of them, and they have calmed down from the restless emotions. Chu Jian, Sa Dipeng and others put the dead bodies of Ye Yixin, Professor Chen, and Hao Aiguo on the hunchback.
An Liman whistled to guide the camel team forward, and the party hurried out of the dark valley of Zagrama through the cold fireworks and the light of the flashlight.
I walked to the open place outside the mountain pass, and then stopped. I put Hao Aiguo’s body on the ground. It was still dark, and the moon was dark. The moment before dawn was so dark. Hao Aiguo was still scared when he died. The expression, the pair of godless eyes behind the glasses had not been closed, and the whole body was blue. Under the illumination of the flashlight column, it was even more miserable and strange.
Professor Chen was aroused by the cold wind blowing from the mountain pass and woke up, struggling to cry on the body of Hao Aiguo, and I lifted the professor up, and the person could not be resurrected. I wanted to persuade him to mourn. Unable to speak.
I lived with Hao Aiguo for almost a month. I usually jokingly call him “old antique”. I really like his straightforward, quick-talking character, but today … I think that I can’t help being sour in my heart, how can I persuade others? .
The rest of the people also wept bitterly. At this time, a dark red slit opened in the far horizon, and the sun was finally coming out. We couldn’t help looking at the east involuntarily.
The light slowly turned into rose and blood red again, and finally turned into tens of thousands of golden lights, and the arc of the sun was exposed. At this moment, the boundless sand sea turned into gold in the furnace of God.
In this desert like gold melt, a huge city is displayed in front of everyone, countless broken walls and ruins, brick, wood, earth and stone various house buildings, countless towers in the city, the most prominent is a tilted The black stone tower stood quietly in the city.
Compared with the scene of the black and white photo in Shirley Yang’s hands, it is exactly the same. After two thousand years, the ruins of the ancient city really exist in the deepest part of the desert.
The size of this exquisite city was enough to live between 50,000 and 60,000 people. At that time, famous cities such as Loulan were only 20,000 or 20,000 residents and an army of more than 3,000 people.
The city has generally been destroyed, buried in the desert for less than a thousand years, and some parts are difficult to distinguish between sand dunes or fortresses. Most towers have collapsed and weathered. This is so, and you can imagine the magnificence of the year.
There is a huge magnetic field here, it is difficult for the plane to fly over the sky, and it is located in the hinterland of the desert. It is estimated that few people can find it here. I do n’t know how many explorers and lost people have come to this legendary ancient city before us. The only thing that can be confirmed is that 99% of them can never return My own hometown.
Professor Chen lifted Hao Aiguo’s body lying on the ground, tremblingly pointed at Jingju Ancient City, and said in a hoarse voice: “Look at it … don’t you always want to see this mysterious ancient city … you Open your eyes and see, we finally found it. ”
I have a bad heart, and the old man is too sad, is it not clear? He hurriedly pulled Professor Chen away from Hao Aiguo: “Professor, Mr. Hao has left, let him rest in peace. Unfortunately, he didn’t see this miraculously preserved ancient city in the end, his wish still depends on you You must cheer up when you are done. ”
Shirley Yang and several students also came over to comfort, and I gave the professor to them. I felt that I was not interested in Hao Aiguo’s death, and I was grateful to Shirley Yang. I said to Shirley Yang, “I just didn’t thank you Well, I owe you a life … but one yard is one yard, we have reached the end, according to the agreement in the previous contract, twenty thousand dollars. ”
As soon as the fat man heard of the money, he quickly came over and added: “20,000 for one person, for a total of 40,000 US dollars, settled in cash.”
Shirley Yang Bai gave us a glance and bit his lip and said, “You can rest assured that you will have all the money, and I will give it to you as soon as you go back.”
I thought that the matter of mentioning money just now was really inappropriate. At that time, it was like I overturned the five-flavored bottle. I didn’t say the wrong thing. I still quickly divert the words, but I don’t know what to say. On the left and right, he said: “That … the city … is not small …”
Shirley Yang stared at my face and said, “After these days of contact, I see that both of you are very skilled, and the experience is extraordinary. You can know money without thinking of you. It seems that my first impression of you is correct. I advise you that there are many precious things in life besides money. ”
I have nothing to say, the fat man said: “Miss Yang, you are a Star and Stripe living in the United States of America, and your father is a giant on Wall Street. I think you must have never used food stamps for dinner, and you must have never experienced festivals when you were a kid. Food is scarce, so you do n’t understand the environment in which we live, and you are not qualified to comment on our values. And you do n’t have to live and educate us bit by bit, the poor do not live, the poor live only to survive. Anyway, these reasons, you have money People ca n’t understand it. I ca n’t help it today. If you do n’t like to listen, even if I do n’t say, we ’ve found the Jingju City now, what to do next, despite your orders. ”
The fat man just started to speak upright, and when he remembered that Shirley Yang was the shopkeeper’s job, he worried that if she was anxious, she would not give money.
I said to her: “Mr. Hao’s business … I have tried my best, sorry.”
Shirley Yang nodded at me, no longer ignored the fat man, took out the kettle and fed Professor Chen and Ye Yixin to drink water. Professor Chen was unclearly stimulated by Hao Aiguo’s death, and he gradually improved after drinking some water. Everyone discussed a few words and decided to bury Hao Aiguo in the desert of the mountain pass. His lifelong pursuit was to study the culture of the Western Regions and be buried here. He will always accompany this mysterious ancient city. Presumably he must also hope that we do so.
We dug a deep hole in the yellow sand, rolled up his body with a blanket, and buried it on the spot. Finally, I shoveled an engineer upside down in front of his grave, which would be a tombstone for Hao Aiguo.
The remaining eight people stood in silence in front of Hao Aiguo’s grave before leaving.
The deceased has gone, and those who are still alive must go to the city to find water immediately, otherwise the second person buried in the desert is Ye Yixin, who is suffering from severe dehydration.
Now that everyone is packing up their equipment, they are ready to go into the city and finally reach their destination. I hope there will be no more trouble. If someone has an accident, how can I spend it even if I earn the money.
Seeing that everyone is almost ready, I asked Shirley whether Yang could leave.
Starting soon, Shirley Yang was a little excited, her body trembling slightly, but she could n’t see whether she was afraid, nervous, or excited. She saw a cross and prayed in a low voice, and then said to us calmly: “Let ’s go . ”
Unexpectedly, at this time, An Liman’s old man suddenly changed his hexagram, shaking his head like a rattle, saying nothing and would not enter the ruins of the ancient city. He said that the death of his companion in the desert was an ominous sign, not to mention that Hao Aiguo was bitten by the devil’s messenger viper.
We had no choice but to rearrange and let him set up a camp at the mountain pass to take care of the camels and the weight.
I wanted to let the fat man stay and stare at him too, in case this old man escaped and left us here … It does n’t matter if he ran away, there is no camel, we have to drive all the way back on the eleventh It’s hard to tell how far away it is in the desert.
Another thought, An Liman should not run away alone. After all, he has gone all the way to the present, not to mention that the wages for his guidance have not been obtained, that is not a small amount, enough for him to worry about his life and food.
However, because I was too careless, I have suffered a lot of losses. At this time, I must have a long eye, so I grabbed the hand of the old man and asked: “Master, how does Hu Da punish people who lie and betray people? ? ”
An Liman said: “This, will make his family’s money into sand, and even his salt, will also become sand together, and finally starved to death, like dead in the Black Desert. Well, after death, he will also go to Hesha Hell and suffer 1,800 kinds of torture. ”
When I saw him speaking seriously, I let go of my heart. His belief made me believe that he did not dare to do things that were too sorry for the conscience of God.
There are only seven people entering the ancient city, including Ye Yixin, who is unconscious, carrying her by Chu Jian, and the remaining five people have to carry some equipment and weapons, plus food and kettles. Are not small.
There is a famous saying in the army: whether it is a soldier or not, forty pounds. That is to say, officers and soldiers in the army, when marching, have a minimum of forty pounds of equipment, and some people have to carry heavy infantry weapons such as machine guns, flamethrowers, or anti-tank equipment.
I have been in the field army for ten years, and I do n’t feel much about the large amount of equipment on my back. Professor Chen ca n’t eat them, and finally I have to pack lightly.
The distance from the mountain pass to the ancient city was very close, and a meal went to the city gate. The city gate collapsed long ago, and the trench in front of the city was filled with yellow sand. We entered the city from the broken part of the city wall, all around There was silence in the ruins.
This is far from what I had imagined before, and I was disappointed. The streets and houses in the city either collapsed or were ruined. It seemed okay in the distance. It was quite impressive on a large scale. When I moved forward, I saw nothing. It’s all sand and rotten wood, broken stones, how can there be any gold and silver treasures.
Only a few large wooden pillar beams that have been torn apart, and the lacquer has been peeled off, can still glimpse the luxurious weather in the old city.
We wanted to look into the broken houses at the gate of the city, but found that although the broken house was mostly exposed outside the desert, the yellow sand in the house piled up on the roof.
Legend has it that the city was once destroyed by the war, and the coalition forces entered the palace. Just as the battle was nearing its end, the black sand storm buried Jing Jue and the residents’ troops in the city indiscriminately in the depths of the yellow sand. It was not until the nineteenth century that the movement of the desert made it reappear.
From the scene, it basically coincided with the legend, but I didn’t see the corpse, it must have been buried in the sand.
I see it as boring, but Professor Chen they seem to be interested in everything in the ancient city, even a broken wall can be seen for a long time.
I have to remind them that the young girl Ye Yixin is still ill, saving people is the most important thing. It seems that the residential areas in this city are filled with yellow sand, and even the wells cannot be found. Let ’s go to the palace to see , There may be water.
Professor Chen slapped his head: “Hey, I’m so confused. It’s important to save Xiaoye. Let’s go to the palace. The kingdom in the desert is built in the place where the underground river is close to the ground, and some of the palaces have rivers passing by. The palace is generally in the middle of the city. ”
The crowd looked for directions in the ruins and headed to the middle of the ancient city. The fat man said to me, “Lao Hu, do you know what I want to eat most now? I want to eat cantaloupe and marshmallow grapes most, even a piece of watermelon, oh … Not to mention, the more thirsty I get, the more my throat smokes, I have to jump down and take a bath when I find the underground river. ”
I said to the fat man: “The life of this queen is very luxurious. I must always enjoy the iced watermelon soaked in the cold underground river water. But even if the watermelon is preserved now, it will probably become a watermelon stone, and the grapes may become raisins. Now. ”
The fat man complained: “This place where the **** bird doesn’t shit, I really can’t imagine that there used to be people living there, let’s not give it to 20,000 beautiful children next time, Jinshan and Yinshan piled up in front of my eyes, and I will not enter the desert. The most uncomfortable way of death in the past must be thirst for life. ”
As soon as I mentioned death, I remembered Hao Aiguo. He was bitten to death by the strange snake. Although he died quickly, he did n’t know how painful he was when he died. The snake also looked strange. There was a black sarcoma on his head. The black water, cut in two sections, can fly and hurt people. This kind of snake hasn’t even seen Shirley Yang. I don’t know if it is in this city.
