Chapter 26 Xiye Ancient City, the plot has changed?

The moon rises and sets, the stars change!

Dark night is coming, and the desert sky is filled with stars!

Stars are shining brightly in the sky.

Compared with the short life span of human beings, the stars exist forever.

"Let's go!"

Shirley Yang and Jiang Hua were full of energy after resting. They put tents and other things back into the storage space and started heading towards Xiye Ancient City.

"How long do we have until we reach Xiye Ancient City?"

Shirley Yang held a map and carefully identified the direction on the ground. Unfortunately, she was not familiar with the desert and was even a little confused as to where they were.

At this moment, the two began to miss An Liman.

Shirley Yang sighed, "I don't know either. Let's go southwest. As long as we keep walking, we will be able to reach Xiye Ancient City."

Jiang Hua glanced at the southwest sky and sighed, feeling helpless.

Suddenly, he was stunned for a moment.

From the storage space, he took out a compass and looked at the sky from time to time, lost in thought.

"Jiang Hua, what's wrong?"

Seeing this scene, Shirley Yang couldn't help coming over and asked.

"Looking at the array of stars, there must be a big tomb ahead, and it's not far from us. If I guessed correctly, that's the legendary Xiye Ancient City!"

Shirley Yang looked happy at first, then looked a little suspicious, "This is Tianxing Feng Shui? How can you know it?"

"Didn't I tell you?" Jiang Hua was stunned for a moment.

"Did you tell me?" Shirley Yang rolled her eyes. Is this person confused?

"It seems there really isn't..."

Jiang Hua scratched his head and said with a smile: "It's passed down from our ancestors, it's passed down from our ancestors..."

shirley Yang: "..."

There are quite a lot of things passed down from your ancestors!

"Let's leave quickly. Teacher and the others are likely to be waiting for us in Xiye Ancient City." Jiang Hua said quickly.

"Well, I'm afraid that Hu Bayi and the others won't go to Jingjue Ancient City after seeing me 'dead'."

Jiang Hua smiled and said: "Don't worry, no, they don't have much water. Even if they don't go to Jingjue Ancient City, they must go to Xiye Ancient City to replenish their water supply, otherwise they won't be able to get out of this desert."


……

As the saying goes: "Looking up the mountain and running to death!"

According to the guidance of Tianxing Feng Shui, it seemed that the ancient city of Xiye was close at hand, but Jiang Hua and Shirley Yang walked all night.

When it was just dawn, a ruined ruin finally appeared in front of them.

"Phew~ It's finally here!"

Jiang Hua breathed a sigh of relief. After walking all night, even though he was a warrior, he felt exhausted.

"Let's go, let's go find the teacher and the others."

"Yeah." Shirley Yang nodded.

In this ancient city of Xiye, countless ruins are exposed on the ground, and only broken stones and ruins remain in each house, giving off a sense of coldness and silence.

The two searched for a while and finally found the archaeological team in the center of Xiye Ancient City.

At this time, the camel was tied aside.

An Liman was lying on the blanket, smoking a pipe and looking at the sky leisurely.

Jiang Hua took a look and found no figure of Professor Chen, only Chu Jian, who was anxiously surrounding an ancient well.

Jiang Hua suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

He quickly stepped forward and asked: "Chu Jian, where are the teachers and the others?"

Chu Jian turned his head and took a look. He was so frightened that he took several steps back with fear in his eyes.

"You, you, are you humans or ghosts? Aren't you dead?"

Jiang Hua explained: "We didn't die, we just accidentally fell into the underground of the ancient city. After searching for a few days, we finally found the exit."

"Why are you alone here, where are the teacher, Hu Bayi and the others?"

It took Chu Jian a long time to finally believe that Jiang Hua and the others were not ghosts, but real people.

He quickly said: "Brother Jiang, yesterday Hu Bayi used Tianxing Feng Shui to discover a tomb under the ancient well, so the teacher and the others discussed going down to have a look. Unexpectedly, no news has come from the time they went down to the tomb until now. ”

Jiang Hua's expression changed.

"Chu Jian, teacher, how long have they been down there?"

"It's been about ten hours. I called them on the well and there was no response. Brother Jiang, teacher, something happened to them, right?" Jiang Hua's heart gradually sank.

More than ten hours, no response.

They must have encountered something.

But he remembered that in the original book, there was no danger in the underground of Xiye Ancient City?

Could it be the parallel world effect that has changed everything?

At this point, there was no point in continuing to wait. He had to go down and take a look.

"Chu Jian, don't worry, Shirley and I will go down to find the teacher and the others."

Chu Jian said quickly: "Brother Jiang, let me go down with you too."

"No, there must be someone up there to take care of you, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with whatever happens."

"Then...okay."

After hearing this, Chu Jian could only nod helplessly.

"shirley, let's go down."

The two tied the rope and began to slowly descend to the bottom of the well with Chu Jian's help.

Finally, Jiang Hua and the others found a cave entrance underground, which was located on the well wall. At this time, the cave entrance was still open. It looked dark, and a sinister wind came out of the cave entrance.

"Shirley, let's be careful."

The two of them continued walking along the passage. The surrounding walls were made of bluestone. Due to being in the ancient well for a long time, the walls were very wet and there were still some water drops hanging on them.

After walking for about three or four minutes, they finally came to the end.

This is a stone gate.

There is a huge stone above the stone gate. This is the Dragon Breaking Stone, which can weigh up to a thousand kilograms!

Once it falls, the ancient tomb will be completely sealed.

At this time, the stone door was wide open. It must have been done by Hu Bayi and the others. Jiang Hua stood in front of the stone door and could feel that the cold breath was getting heavier and heavier.

He could vaguely smell a fishy smell coming from the stone door.

"Teacher, they should be inside. Let's all be careful. It may be dangerous."

Shirley Yang took a deep breath, "I will be careful."

Walking inside, this is a spacious stone room.

The stone chamber was about tens of meters long and wide, and it didn't feel crowded at all. Bronze lamps were burning around it, illuminating the entire stone chamber.

Jiang Hua's eyes changed slightly when he saw the scene around him.

In this stone chamber, the ground is covered with bones.

There are dozens of wooden pillars around, with human bones tied to them. Traces of torture can still be seen on the bones.

Shirley Yang said: "These human bones should be slaves buried with them. They were tied here and they should have died after experiencing cruel punishment."

Jiang Hua also sighed, "This ancient city of Xiye is the site of the Gumo Kingdom during the Western Han Dynasty. Only these small countries still retain the slavery system."

Shirley Yang looked around and found Professor Chen and the others.

"Where did Professor Chen and the others go? I took a look just now and didn't find any doorway in this stone chamber."

Because Jiang Hua had read the original work, he lowered his head to look for the underground entrance, and sure enough, two stone rings soon appeared.

As long as you open the stone ring, you can enter the main tomb chamber. Professor Chen and the others are most likely down there.

"shirley, the entrance is here."

Jiang Hua shouted, and Shirley Yang came over. The two of them jointly pulled the stone ring, and soon an underground entrance appeared with a stone staircase inside.

The two looked at each other. Jiang Hua stepped inside first and walked slowly down the stone stairs, followed closely by Shirley Yang.

Jiang Hua's vigilance has been raised to the highest level and he is ready to take action at any time. Shirley Yang also holds a pistol in his hand and follows Jiang Hua with a serious look on his face.

Soon the two of them descended into the main tomb chamber.

Jiang Hua's pupils shrank when he saw the scene inside.

I saw a dark red coffin located in the center of the tomb. The lid on the coffin was no longer visible, so it was obvious that the coffin had been opened.

And a figure was lying on the ground.

There was no sound.

The figure had his back to them, and his face could not be seen clearly. Judging from his clothes, Jiang Hua quickly guessed his identity!

Hao Aiguo!

Professor Hao!

He actually died here?

What happened?

Where did everyone else go?
