After a night, it was already light outside, but the black sandstorm was still going on.

The strong wind swept the yellow sand all over the sky, covering the sky and the sun. It blew for a whole day without stopping. Such a big sandstorm is rare, but it is much smaller than yesterday.

Early in the morning, Ye Yixin, who was sleeping in the corner of the old house, woke up from her sleep hugging something as usual.

For a moment, I thought I was still at home. I squeezed the thing in my hand, and it seemed to be the first stick.

When I opened my eyes, it turned out to be a thigh bone.

"Ah↗→↘↘~"

Ye Yixin was startled, jumped up and hit her head against the beam, and almost fainted.

Everyone was awakened by Ye Yixin's sudden scream and looked at her.

"Xiao Ye, what's wrong with you?" Professor Chen asked.

"There is a dead body!" Ye Yixin said in a trembling voice.

"Dead body? Xiaoye, why are you so startled? We archaeologists are afraid of dead bodies?" Hao Aiguo said while rubbing his eyes and yawning.

"Ah, sorry, teacher, I am not mentally prepared, sorry, sorry..." Ye Yixin said while rubbing his painful head.

Hu Bayi turned on the flashlight and shone it in the corner. Sure enough, he saw a few bones scattered not far from Ye Yixin. The largest one was the thigh bone that Ye Yixin hugged to sleep last night.

"Okay, okay, it's just a corpse, Fatty, take people to dig a pit and bury it." Hu Bayi said to Fatty.

Then he lit a fire and started to prepare breakfast.

After everyone had breakfast, Fatty started to dig a pit to bury the corpse.

Professor Chen and his friends came over and took a closer look at the corpse. They found that there was no flesh on the corpse, which was very strange.

Generally speaking, people who die in the desert rarely rot, and basically become mummies.

An Liman said that this was not strange, and the bodies might have been eaten by wild animals that came in to take refuge.

The fat man and Sadipeng were digging, and suddenly they shoveled a stone, which made them feel strange.

After digging the surrounding sand, they found a black stone.

This alarmed several members of the archaeological team.

Everyone came to watch.

After digging more than half a meter down, they found the head of a black stone statue buried in the yellow sand.

The head of the stone statue was very big, as big as two heads of a normal person, and the eyes were olive-shaped, large and long, and the proportions were obviously enlarged, which looked very inconsistent.

The stone statue had a flat bun on its head, and its expression was peaceful.

Professor Chen looked at it and said to Hao Aiguo beside him: "Aiguo, look at this stone statue, have we seen it somewhere before?"

Hao Aiguo looked at it carefully for a while and said: "Ah, it's true. A stone man like this was also unearthed in the Thousand Coffins Tomb in Western Xinjiang. It's exactly the same, with very big eyes. It's called a giant pupil stone statue."

So next, the archaeological team took out their workbooks and cameras to make records.

The sandstorm continued, and everyone could only stay in the house and do their own things.

Hu Bayi and Fatty, each holding a cigarette, chatted at the hole in the big house.

Shen Hao was still meditating on his own and refining the magic weapon.

Shirley Yang looked around and walked to Hu Bayi's side.

Seeing this, the fat man joked to Hu Bayi: "Old Hu, look, that foreign girl is coming over. She is probably looking for you. Is she attracted to you?"

"Go, stop talking nonsense. How can a rich woman like us be attracted to a peasant like us?" Hu Bayi rolled his eyes.

"Okay, I won't bother you. You two can chat. Maybe she really likes you. Hehe~" The fat man smiled, finished the last puff of the cigarette, threw away the cigarette butt, and moved to another corner to lie down.

At this time, Shirley Yang had approached. Seeing this, Hu Bayi greeted her and said, "Hello, Miss Yang, what's up?"

"Nothing, I just want to chat with you." Shirley Yang said

So the two chatted casually.

"Miss Yang, there is a question I have always wanted to ask you. Why do you have to look for that ancient city of Jingjue? That ancient city may have disappeared long ago!" Hu Bayi asked.

"Mr. Hu, the ancient city must still be there. My father should have found it." Yang Xueli said.

"Then, what about the notebook found under the Kunlun Glacier? Shouldn't your father have had an accident there?" Hu Bayi asked.

"I don't know. After all, finding the Jingjue Ancient City is my father's lifelong wish!" Yang Xueli said.

"And soon after that, I often dreamed of a big black hole, and above the hole hung a big coffin, which was engraved with ghost cave characters and wrapped with many big iron chains."

"The coffin is above theThere was also a huge thing lying there, but I couldn't see what it was. Every time I tried to see it clearly, I would wake up. "

"Especially later, the frequency of this dream became higher and higher."

"In the past few months, I have dreamed about it almost every night. I believe that this is my father's dream, and the coffin must contain the Queen of Jingjue! "

Hu Bayi listened to Shirley Yang's story as if he were listening to a story.

Then Yang Shirley told Hu Bayi about the ancient city of Jingjue again, and Hu Bayi learned a lot of information about the ancient city of Jingjue.

As for the notebook, it was recorded by a British explorer Walter when he led an expedition team into the depths of the Takhan Desert on the eve of World War II.

But in the end, only he came out alive and was mentally ill. Only the photos and notes in the camera proved the existence of the ancient city of Jingjue.

The notebook was bought by her father from the UK. He started preparing to go in for the expedition a few years ago. Unexpectedly, not long after her father set out, he sent a distress signal on the Kunlun ice sheet.

Then he disappeared.

After receiving the news, Shirley Yang immediately came to China and found her father's friend Chen Professor.

Professor Chen had been preparing for the archaeological operation of Jingjue Ancient City for a long time, but due to funding constraints, he had not been able to go.

So Shirley Yang funded the archaeological team to take her to Jingjue Ancient City to find her father.

Yang Shirley's story was true, but she just didn't tell the whole story. Of course, her real purpose was more than that, but there was no need to say it.

The two chatted for a long time.

At this time, the wind and sand outside had become much smaller.

On the other side, the archaeological team had dug out most of the body of the stone statue.

Many strange patterns and symbols were found on it, which had never been seen before.

So they excitedly started to study and record.

Suddenly, Chu Jian and Ye Yi, who were next to the stone statue, screamed: "Ah↗↗~, why are there so many big ants?"

"Ah↘~, there are also here!"
