Chapter 138 The special black building, the purple corpse flower next to the mummified corpse!(1/2)
Two days later.
The sun above my head is particularly vicious. Even if I just walk in the desert, I feel as if I will melt at any time.
"The Loulan ancient tomb group is ahead."
The smiling Buddha stood on the sand dune and looked into the distance.
Everyone followed his sight and saw the ruins of an ancient city on the sand dune.
In this endless desert, such a dilapidated ancient city ruins seem particularly desolate.
"It's finally here."
Jia Hu couldn't help licking the corners of his mouth and couldn't help but speak, "Can this be a mirage?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the smiling Buddha knocked on his head with no angrily: "Stop in this crow's mouth."
Lin You said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't be poor anymore, let's go to the ancient city first to take a look."
Hearing this, the smiling Buddha nodded immediately.
For him, only after finding Ziyou Corpse Flower, their trip was not in vain.
The ancient city of Loulan is able to reappear the light of day, but it is actually full of drama.
In early March 1900, the explorer Sven Heding's expedition team came to the Rob Wasteland along the dry Peacock River left bed. When they were traveling through a desert, they found that their shovel was accidentally lost in the campsite last night.
Heding asked his assistant to go back and search, but on the way he encountered a strong wind in the desert and accidentally discovered an ancient castle under the sand.
The assistant quickly found the shovel and even picked up a few wood carving fragments from the ancient ruins.
After hearing this, Sven Heding immediately followed Eldick to this ruin on the northwest shore of Lop Nur and found that ancient ruins were filled with beautiful wood carvings, fabrics and coins.
Due to the lack of fresh water, they did not stay here for a long time. Instead, they returned here after a full year of preparation and prepared to excavate the ruins.
Here, they unearthed countless cultural relics.
And afterwards, it was proved that the ruins of this ancient city were the ancient Loulan City that had disappeared for countless years!
Sometimes, history is such a coincidence.
If it weren't for the lost shovel, the ancient city of Loulan might not have seen the light of day again.
Not long after, Lin You and the others arrived in front of the ruins of the ancient city.
However, the ancient city in front of us has long been eroded by the wind and sand in the desert.
From a distance, there may be some magnificent style, but after entering the city, the streets and houses inside either collapsed or were dilapidated. The ruins of the ancient city were covered with sand, rotten wood and gravel.
Fortunately, Lin You and the others did not come for treasure hunting either.
The smiling Buddha came to Cui Xiuxiu's side, took out a bunch of dry purple flowers from his backpack, and said, "Xiuxiu, it's up to you next."
This purple dried flower is naturally the purple corpse flower that has died.
Although the medicinal power in the plant has been lost, some odor remains on it.
As long as she asks about this smell, it should not be difficult to find the location of Ziyou Corpse Flower with Cui Xiuxiu's sense of smell.
Sure enough, after smelling the smell of Ziyou Corpse Flower, Cui Xiuxiu's Qiong nose twitched slightly and quickly made a judgment.
"I'll try it."
Choi Xiuxiu closed her eyes and stepped out, as if she was moving forward entirely by her sense of smell.
Her body is agile and lively and lightly walking through the ruins of the ancient city.
It has to be said that although the ruins of this ancient city are dilapidated, the coverage is extremely large.
As everyone walked in it, it felt like it was as complicated as a maze.
If you drop people directly, you may not be able to get out of this ancient city in just a few hours.
Everyone followed Cui Xiuxiu, and then the latter closed his eyes tightly, but he seemed to have opened his eyes, and was able to travel through the complex ancient city with ease.
Because the weather was too hot, not long after, everyone began to breathe heavily.
Even Jia Hu was sweating profusely and couldn't help but say, "This kind of ghost place is simply not something that can be treated by living people."
"Everyone says that the cantaloupe and grapes here are the most delicious in China. When I go back, I will have to enjoy it!"
Lin You smiled: "Your behavior was called looking at plum blossoms to quench thirst in ancient times."
Not long after, everyone, led by Choi Xiuxiu, came to the center of the ancient city.
Because the surrounding streets began to become wider, and some high-rise buildings began to appear.
"If nothing unexpected happens, this place should be the center of Loulan Ancient City, right?"
The smiling Buddha looked at the surrounding landscape and couldn't help but speak.
However, at this moment, Xiaodao on the side suddenly frowned.
The smiling Buddha noticed his strangeness and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xiaodao pursed his lips and whispered: "I always feel... something is hiding in these buildings and peeping at us."
"What did you say?"
Xiaowei laughed and said, "It's said that there have been no one living here for at least one or two thousand years. Could it be that the female ghost of Loulan that peeks at us?"
Xiaodao took a deep breath and said calmly: "It's nothing, maybe it's just my illusion."
Although this may just be Xiaodao's illusion, Lin You still opened the ghost and god's eyes very vigilantly and glanced around.
You should know that human intuition is sometimes quite accurate, and you can often perceive some things that are not noticed by the naked eye.
However, even under the gaze of ghosts and gods, Lin You still did not notice anything unusual.
There are no traces of ghosts around, and there is even no place with rich yin energy.
Moreover, my [danger prediction] did not trigger it.
Maybe... this time it was really just a little dazzling.
However, no one noticed that in a broken building, a pair of dark yellow eyes slowly shrank into the darkness.
…………
"There is a strong smell of purple corpse flowers here."
Soon, Choi Xiuxiu brought everyone to a black building.
Compared with other buildings in the ancient city, this black building looks particularly complete, as if it has not been eroded by wind and sand.
The smiling Buddha stepped forward to investigate and spoke, "These bricks are all blue-black, and should be made of some special stone."
Lin You walked forward, touched it gently with his hand, and immediately a cold touch came from the wall.
In such hot weather, the temperature of the stone wall is so low, it seems that it is indeed made of a special material.
Jia Hu, who was standing beside him, said carelessly: "This thing is square and dark, and it looks like a coffin."
After Jia Hu said this, everyone was stunned.
Although what he said was a bit unlucky, the building in front of him, from the outside, was indeed the same as the coffin.
"Let's go in and take a look."
When I think of the purple corpse flower, it might be in this black hall, even if it is a real coffin, the smiling Buddha must enter.
He took a step and walked into the hall first.
A faint cold feeling came to me immediately.
It was obviously in the hot desert, but it made people shudder.
However, the layout inside the hall is extremely simple. Except for four black stone sculptures in all corners, there are no other layouts.
Of course, even if there is, it is very likely that it will be taken away by archaeologists who came to inspect before.
After all, the ruins of the ancient city of Loulan have been discovered for at least a hundred years.
The archaeologists have come one after another.
Such a special building is unreasonable to be ignored.
"Finally found!"
At this moment, Wang Kun's surprise voice came from the hall!
Everyone looked in the sound, and saw this guy pointing at a purple flower growing in the corner of the wall and speaking excitedly: "Boss, come and see if this is the purple corpse flower you are looking for?"
The smiling Buddha rushed over immediately and saw a dark mummy next to the purple flower.
Moreover, the mummy was still opening her mouth wide, as if she was still screaming before her death.
Judging from the experience of the Smiling Buddha, the purple flower that Wang Kun found is the purple corpse flower!
"Wang Kun, you are really my lucky star!"
The smiling Buddha took a deep breath, patted the latter's shoulder heavily, and spoke in a deep voice: "How did you find it?"
Wang Kun scratched his head and said with a look of embarrassment: "I've also held my urine in my arms and wanted to find a place to deal with it. As he was peeing, he found that there was a mummy here looking at me with his mouth wide open."
