Ten o'clock in the evening.
The full moon hangs high and the night is as cool as water.
Thin layers of dark clouds drifted over the moon from time to time, blocking the moonlight.
The entire night sky was bright and bright, as if the surrounding stars were twinkling.
Xinshi, deep in the Luobo Desert.
The endless yellow sand and the rising dunes have a few tall cacti growing here and there.
From time to time, scorpions, gerbils, lizards and other animals crawl quickly on the desert, making a faint"rustling" sound.
At this time, a group of people were traveling through the desert.
Under the moonlight, everyone's appearance is clearly visible.
The leader is a man, about sixty years old.
Tall, blond, blue eyes and a high nose.
He held a flashlight in his left hand and a parchment with mottled marks of time in his right hand.
His head kept rising and falling, switching his gaze back and forth between the surrounding area in front of him and the yellow paper.
The people behind him all looked similar, but they were younger.
They followed closely behind the leader and kept shining their flashlights around, providing themselves and the leader with a field of vision.
Everyone was wearing down jackets because of the cold night in the desert. The colorful clothes added a bit of color to the black and yellow desert.
And walking at the end of the crowd was a young man.
He only wore a thin red burqa and held a wooden staff as high as a man in his hand.
The hair is long and slender, hanging down the back of the head.
The expression on his face was leisurely, without the slightest sense of nervousness.
These people are none other than the Louvre Expedition.
The leading man is the captain of the Louvre Museum archaeological team, and also the captain of the Louvre Museum expedition team - Vogel!
As for the young man walking at the end of the crowd, his name is Sato.
He is a wizard who was specially invited by Vogel for this operation.
The wizards in the West are not the same thing as the 'witches' in ancient China.
Western wizards are actually equivalent to psychics. It is the same as the ancient Chinese trade, and it is also a profession that has been passed down for a long time in the West.
For example, in foreign countries, fortune tellers and tarot masters are still very popular today, unlike in China, where the ancient profession has almost disappeared.
Of course, there are also very few people in special professions who are truly capable abroad.
And this wizard Sator is the kind of person who is really capable.
"Captain, is this map reliable?"
At this time, a man wearing a yellow down jacket behind Vogel walked up to Vogel.
This man's name was Stan, and he was the deputy captain of the Louvre expedition team.
They were already walking in the vast desert. After three days and three nights, but still seemed to have no clue, I finally couldn't help complaining:"Is it really the map of the ancient Loulan country? It doesn’t look like an ancient city at first glance!"
"Stan, shut your mouth.
Vogel turned his head suddenly and glanced at Stan dissatisfied.
He shook the map in his hand and said seriously:"I worked hard to get this map. There is no way it is fake!""
"We couldn't find it for so long, except that the map is only half of it and cannot fully show the specific location of the ancient Loulan country.……"
Having said this, he paused and then said slightly mysteriously:"It is also because the ancient Loulan country is extremely mysterious. It is said that the ancient Loulan country does not seem to have a fixed location, but wanders around in the desert. The location marked on this map, It’s just the most common location in Loulan Ancient Kingdom."
"Wandering around? How can this be?"
"That’s right, that’s an ancient city!"
"This is probably a rumor"
"No matter how mysterious Loulan Ancient Kingdom is, it is impossible to move!"
"……"
After hearing Vogel's words, the members of the Louvre expedition team started talking.
During the conversation, there was a lot of disbelief in what Vogel just said.
"It doesn't matter if it's true."
At this time, a somewhat arrogant voice sounded.
Everyone turned and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Sato smiling and shaking his head, with a look of disdain on his face.
Then, there was another sound in their ears. The voice of Sato came:"It's just an ancient country in Loulan. I, the wizard Sato, come out to attack. Isn't it easy to capture it?""
Hearing this, there was not a trace of sneer on everyone's face.
They had seen the power of wizards, so they naturally had no doubts about Sato's words. They thought that China has never been able to find the ancient country of Loulan, maybe because there is no such thing as Sato. Strange people like wizards looked at each other, with a bit of smile in their eyes, and they all started to compliment Sato.
"That’s right, that’s right!"
"Yes, Wizard Sator is here, what do we have to worry about?"
"Wizard Sator is so low-key that he almost forgot that we still have Wizard Sator in charge!"
"……"
At this time, Vogel bowed slightly to Sarto and expressed his respect.
Immediately afterwards, he waved his hands to everyone, indicating that they should stop talking.
After pondering for a moment, he said thoughtfully:"It may not be true that the ancient city is floating around, but the ancient country of Loulan must be difficult to find, but this time we have Wizard Sato, so we can be more relaxed.……"
Before he finished speaking, Vogel's voice stopped abruptly.
Everyone looked at Vogel subconsciously, but saw that his pupils were shrunken and he was looking forward with wide eyes.
The mouth was slightly open, and the expression on his face was extremely strange.
Seems a little surprised, but also a little panicked
"What's going on here?"
"Why do you look like you've seen a ghost?"
They had questions in their minds.
Without thinking much, they subconsciously followed Vogel's gaze, but the next moment, they also showed the same expression as Vogel.
"this……"
Under their surprised gazes.
Then, about a few hundred meters ahead, four figures appeared vaguely in the yellow sand and moonlight.
If you observe carefully, you will see that the bodies of the four figures are very stiff and very strange. They are carrying a huge thing together. The outline looks like a sedan chair popular in ancient China.
Each figure looks strong and well-proportioned.
He walks a little strangely, his legs don't seem to bend.
At the same time, they seemed to have their hands and feet tied together, regardless of the amplitude or frequency of the swings.
There is no difference between them!
He was obviously walking, but he looked like he was running at an extremely fast speed.
They didn't seem to be affected by the softness of the sand or the undulations of the terrain. The four figures and the sedan seemed to be one unit.
It looks very stable, without any shaking.
Just drifting in the distance!
Sato just glanced at it and stopped looking.
Although he didn't see it clearly just now, he didn't feel the slightest evil spirit.
"Not even evil……"
"It's definitely not a spiritual creature"
"You don't deserve me to do it!"
Thinking of this, Sarto glanced at the people on the Louvre expedition team, but saw that everyone seemed to be under a restraining spell. They were so frightened that they froze in place and remained motionless.
He frowned slightly, as if he was a little embarrassed. It felt like being with everyone in the Louvre expedition team.
Then he coughed lightly and said calmly:"Wake up!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone in the Louvre expedition team suddenly trembled and regained a lot of consciousness.
They looked at the ghostly figure in the distance that was about to disappear, thinking that only a few seconds had passed before they ran away. So far away?
So I couldn't help lowering my voice and started talking in a low voice.
"What is that?"
"Is it a ghost?"
"How can a ghost be seen by us?"
"Is it a human? But it looks so weird!"
"In human terms, what are they doing in the depths of the desert at night, and where are they going?"
"Who dares to run like this in the desert? Aren't you afraid of encountering quicksand? That can kill people!"
"……"
At this time, Vogel first bowed to Sarto to express his gratitude.
Then, he looked at the figure that was about to disappear in the distance, and felt relieved.
Then he pressed his hands to everyone, motioning them not to speak, and then said:"Okay, stop discussing it, it doesn't matter whether it's a human or a ghost."
"Moreover, the desert is very mysterious, and it is normal for some strange things to happen. It may just be a shadow reflected by the refraction of natural light."
"Moreover……"
"We still have the wizard Sato sitting in charge, so even ghosts don’t dare to come."
"Now our first priority is to find the ancient country of Loulan and obtain countless wealth. Don't be distracted by other things!"
Having said this, he glanced at the map in his hand, and then looked around in front of him.
Then he waved his hand and said proudly:"Let's go!"
After saying that, he took the lead and walked forward to lead the way for everyone. After hearing this, other members of the Louvre expedition team also felt that there was nothing wrong with what Vogel said.
When they thought of Sato behind them, their fear immediately dissipated. After all, they all bowed to Sato and quickly followed Vogel.
Seeing this, Sato followed suit and walked leisurely with the others. At the end, the group of people walked further and further forward, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
No one noticed that... the direction they were walking in was on two parallel lines with the direction the group of figures were walking in. the same direction
…… the other side.
Also deep in the desert.
It is about five kilometers east of Vogel and others just now.
There was a crowd there too.
There were six people in total, five men and one woman.
It was none other than Mr. Wang and his group.
At this time, in addition to Mr. Wang, Li Yuer, Kurban, Wu Tianzhen and Fatty Wang, there was also a middle-aged uncle.
This middle-aged uncle was slightly chubby and was wearing a long black windbreaker with a white down jacket wrapped around it.
The expression on his face was very kind and honest, but his eyes flashed with shrewdness from time to time.
His name is Wu Sanxing, he is Wu Tianzhen’s third uncle, and everyone calls him Wu Sanshu
"Uncle Wu, I never thought you could come this time!"
At this time, Mr. Wang walked forward and looked at Wu Sanxing, with an excited look on his face.
He patted Wu Tianzhen on the shoulder and said with a smile:"Tianzhen told me on the phone to bring it with me. A master, I thought it was Pan Zi, but I didn’t expect it was you who came in person!"
"If it were any other way, I wouldn't join in the fun."
Wu Sanxing laughed, and his laughter was quite heroic.
He rubbed his hands, his eyes full of expectation:"But we are looking for the ancient country of Loulan!
Wu Tianzhen smiled shyly:"I also want to see what the ancient Loulan country is like, which has not been discovered for thousands of years. I hope I can see it this time!""
"correct!"
Mr. Wang suddenly thought of something.
He turned around, shook the map in his hand at everyone, and sighed:"Whether this map is true or false, we are very likely to encounter Vogel and the others in the end. At that time, I hope you can expel them and protect our country’s cultural relics!"
Hearing this, Fatty Wang patted his belly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he said casually:"Don't worry, Fatty will definitely do his job. If the Chinese cultural relics are to be dug out, we have to get it through our hands first. , how could you let the foreign devils take it away!
Li Yue'er shook the camera in her hand and said seriously:"If they don't leave or dare to take action, I will expose it to them when I get back!""
The others also nodded, saying that there was no problem and they would definitely help.
Seeing this, Mr. Wang bowed slightly to everyone and said sincerely:"That's it, thank you in advance!"
"it's okay no problem."
Li Yue'er hurriedly stepped forward to help Mr. Wang.
Then, she glanced at the people behind her without leaving any trace, and then whispered:"Mr. Wang, for the sake of me���For the sake of helping you so hard, just tell me where he is?!"
Mr. Wang:"……"
…… at the same time.
In the center of the Lobo Desert.
Among the high and low sand dunes, the group of figures Vogel saw before appeared here.
However, these figures have stopped now.
Under the moonlight, the figures of these figures were clearly visible.
His face was extremely pale, as if he were covered in several kilograms of flour.
Scarlet lips and two clusters of blush on both sides of her cheeks.
It's not a person at all, but a paper man!
The four paper-tied people were carrying the sedan chair.
It's completely black, with no other colors.
There is a small skull hanging on each of the four corners of the sedan roof.
At this time, the sedan door curtain opened.
A figure walked out of the sedan.
It looked a little weird in the moonlight.
Robe, hat... none other than Lin Hao!
It turned out that Lin Hao was preparing to think about how to determine the location of the ancient Loulan country after the Zhizha people carried the ghost sedan to the Luobo Desert.
However, I haven’t even started thinking about it yet.
He then saw the jade in his storage backpack suddenly flicker.
At that time, this jade was dug out of the ground in Yizhuang and was related to the ancient Loulan country. Unexpectedly, it played a big role this time.
Out of curiosity, he took out the jade.
After some research, Lin Hao unexpectedly discovered that jade biscuits can absorb mysterious energy.
Later, Lin Hao finally found out the function of the jade. As long as the jade is closer to the location of the ancient Loulan Kingdom, the brighter it becomes.
So, under the guidance of the jade jade between light and darkness, he finally found this place.
"Not surprisingly, it should be here."
Lin Hao stretched out his hand from his cloak, and the jade in his palm was emitting crystal clear green light. It was even... a little dazzling.
He just glanced at the jade, and then looked around. He saw, Surrounded by endless, scattered sand dunes, there was no trace of the ancient city buildings.
Lin Hao was not surprised at all. After all, the ancient Loulan country was so mysterious that no one had found it in the thousands of years since it disappeared. Lin Hao believed that this ancient city was invisible.
It was not surprising that it could not be found with the naked eye. It would be strange if it was so easy to find.
However, Lin Hao did not panic because he had already learned about it through Yubi before. How to find the ancient country of Loulan
"Unexpectedly, this jade was accidentally salvaged during the establishment of the Walking Corpse Home.……"
"It turned out to be the key to finding the ancient country of Loulan"
"Unexpectedly……"
"This means that the ancient country of Loulan came to this world has something to do with me!"
When he thought of this, Lin Hao no longer wasted time.
He sent Xuan Qi into the sand and began to explore.
For a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he took a step forward and walked straight to a slightly raised small area. In front of the sand dune.
Without any hesitation, he waved his big hand towards the sand dune.
"boom——!!"
Suddenly!
Dust is flying and yellow sand is splashing everywhere.
For a time, the entire small sand dune was covered with thick dust and fog.���Covered, Lin Hao also disappeared.
"call……"
About half a minute passed.
Just then, a gust of wind blew.
The scattered yellow sand gradually dispersed, and Lin Hao's figure was slowly revealed.
Lin Hao looked at the sand dune again, only to see that where it was originally, the sand dune had disappeared.
Instead, there is a circular altar with a diameter of ten meters.
The altar sank about half a meter into the yellow sand.
Under the illumination of the moonlight, some strange patterns are carved on the platform, exuding the atmosphere of ancient times. If there are archaeologists here, they will definitely be surprised.
Because this altar is at least a thousand years old!
"This should be the altar used by the ancient Loulan Kingdom to worship heaven!"
"It is roughly the same as what is recorded in ancient books."
Before coming, Lin Hao naturally did enough homework. He read through ancient books and found some information about the ancient Loulan country.
According to records, during the heyday of the ancient Loulan country, sacrifices were held every year.
And in the ancient Loulan country, there was a party An altar specially used for worship is rumored to be magical and has special effects!
"I don’t know if it’s really magical."
Lin Hao was also a little curious. After careful observation, he found that the patterns on the altar were very strange, but they were very similar to the patterns on the bronze bells salvaged from the Yellow River!
And these patterns on the altar seemed to be gathered in the center of the altar.
In it In the center, there is a small round platform with a diameter of about two meters, slightly higher than the entire altar.
There are three holes on it.
There is a rectangular hole in the middle, and there are flower-like holes on the left and right sides.
"Only two flower holes?"
He was slightly surprised, thinking that he had thought too much and thought it was not enough.
So without hesitation, he took a few steps forward to the center of the platform, and then put the jade in his hand towards the rectangular hole on the small round platform.
"snap——"
With a soft sound, the jade seemed to have been placed inside.
No more, no less, just enough to fit in.
Seeing this scene, Lin Hao showed a faint smile on his face.
He immediately took out two more bells from his storage backpack.
These two bells were two of the three bells that were originally in the eyes and mouth of Wang Anshi's corpse.
Without wasting any time, he put one in each hand directly into the flower-shaped holes on both sides.
The same situation as the jade jade, the two bells were just put into the holes.
"The thing that activates the mechanism has been put away"
"Now……"
"It should be to complete the ritual of the mysterious ancient trade of Loulan Ancient Kingdom, so that Loulan Ancient Kingdom can reappear in the world!"
When we salvaged Wang Anshi's body before and completed the task, the system gave a prompt.
At that time, the system said that Wang Anshi's method of using corpses to suppress the Yellow River came from a mysterious person in the ancient industry.
Later, Lin Hao salvaged the jade. Later, it was speculated that the beautiful woman on the jade wall might be the Queen of Loulan, or that mysterious person in the ancient trade.
But now, after understanding the function of the jade wall, Lin Hao was sure.
