Chapter 30 The exquisite ancient city has arrived
Three days later, the archaeological team embarked on their journey again.
Professor Jiang's health has also improved slightly.
Chu Jian took Hao Aiguo's ashes and prepared to bury him in Jingjue Ancient City to fulfill his long-cherished wish.
The desert stretches as far as the eye can see, with nothing but yellow sand all over the sky.
The closer we get to the ancient city of Jingjue, the weather becomes hotter and hotter, waves of heat rising up and scorching the earth.
Such hot weather, even with camels, is very difficult for people, especially the archaeological team including old people.
Professor Jiang had just recovered from a serious illness and his body was still weak. Faced with this kind of environment, he simply couldn't bear it.
There was no other way, so Jiang Hua and the others could only set out at night and hide in the shade to enjoy the coolness during the day.
Hu Bayi and the others dug a pit and covered it with a tent, allowing the water in the sand to evaporate and lower the temperature.
It can also reduce the loss of body water.
After all, although they have replenished water in Xiye Ancient City, who knows how far away Jingjue Ancient City is?
In the desert, water is the source of life!
It's worth saving a little bit.
Everyone was lying inside boredly, unable to do anything. After all, no one would be stupid enough to go out in such a bright sun.
Only Jiang Hua and Shirley Yang were sitting cross-legged in the tent, practicing hard.
"Hey, Lao Hu, do you think Brother Jiang's relationship has changed since he went to the dungeon with that foreign girl?"
"Huh? Fatty, don't talk nonsense there!"
"Hey, why am I talking nonsense?"
“Just talk nonsense without evidence, and be careful they won’t give you a penny!”
The fat man laughed.
"Lao Hu, I think that foreign girl is probably interested in our Brother Jiang. If she doesn't give you money by then, then I will ask Brother Jiang for it."
"Shut up, I'm telling you, don't talk nonsense to me and ruin the reputation of other girls."
"Don't worry, I'm just going to tell you about this. I'm not a fat person who doesn't know the importance of things."
"Hey, Lao Hu, you said that if Brother Jiang really gets together with a foreign girl, will he go to the lighthouse country to become a Wall Street tycoon?"
Hu Bayi rolled his eyes and said, "What does it have to do with you if someone goes to the Lighthouse Country?"
"Hey, I'm not curious!"
……
While Hu Bayi was chatting with Fatty.
Jiang Hua held the jade bead in his hand and kept absorbing the spiritual energy inside.
After these spiritual energy enters the human body, it is quickly converted into true energy. Wisps of true energy circulate in the flesh and blood, strengthening all the muscle cells in the body.
If a first-grade warrior is just getting started, then a second-grade warrior is just getting a glimpse of the ropes.
In this realm, the concentration of true energy is several times stronger than that of a first-grade warrior, and the power is also much more powerful.
The second level realm, in summary, is two things.
Temper your true energy and strengthen your flesh and blood!
Jiang Hua is now using jade beads to continuously temper his true energy and increase the total amount of true energy.
If it can be expressed in terms of data, his cultivation speed at the second-level realm is increasing at an extremely fast rate.
This is the magic of Reiki.
As long as you have enough aura.
You can quickly increase your true energy in a short period of time, thereby speeding up your cultivation.
In ancient times, spiritual energy was everywhere in the world.
But now, it is very difficult to find the existence of spiritual energy.
Shirley Yang is also practicing on the side.
After eating the spirit fruit, she was directly promoted to a first-level warrior and is now in the skin refining stage.
Shirley Yang uses the "Moving Mountain Internal Qi Technique" to transport the true qi in the body, and uses this true qi to continuously strengthen the skin membrane.
On the other side, Ye Yixin looked at the two of them practicing cross-legged, her eyes flickering.
There was a trace of surprise in her eyes.
His face was also a little gloomy and uncertain.
Jiang Hua and Shirley Yang, what are they doing?
Could it be that they are already warriors?
This is important information.
She thought about it and had an idea.
……
The sun sets over the western mountains.
Jiang Hua and Shirley Yang finally finished practicing, while Hu Bayi, Fatty and others were already making fire to cook.
Seeing Shirley Yang woke up.
Ye Yixin rolled his eyes and came to her side.
"Sister Yang, what were you doing just now?" "Are you cultivating immortality?"
Ye Yixin reveals her girl-next-door face, showing two small dimples, which makes people feel attracted to her at a glance.
Shirley Yang's eyes moved. If Jiang Hua hadn't told her not to have too much contact with Ye Yixin, her identity would not be simple.
I'm afraid she never imagined that such a cute girl next door as Ye Yixin could be a spy or something like that.
Her eyes flickered and she said with a smile: "What kind of cultivation? Have you read too many novels?"
"What was Sister Yang doing just now?"
"Hey, this is a health-preserving skill passed down from my family. It can restore energy. We will set off to the ancient city of Jingjue later, so we have to recuperate before going!"
"Oh, so is Brother Jiang?"
"Probably so."
Shirley Yang smiled, "Xiaoye, why do you ask this?"
"Sister Yang, I'm just a little curious."
Ye Yixin's smile was a little stiff.
"Oh, let's eat quickly, we will leave soon."
"Yeah."
……
After everyone finished their dinner, they continued towards the ancient city of Jingjue.
At night in the desert, the temperature changes greatly.
Daytime temperatures can reach fifty or sixty degrees.
The temperature at night dropped to minus one to twenty degrees.
In this temperature, everyone wears cotton-padded jackets.
It took about two days and two nights of walking.
The exquisite ancient city is still far away.
"Hey, I'm so exhausted."
While he was resting, the fat man sat down on the sand, still cursing.
"Hey, old man, are we going to the wrong place? Where's the promised Ziduan River? There's not even a shadow in sight."
An Liman: "Well, I'm sure I'm going the right way. The Ziduan River you mentioned should have dried up, so there's nothing I can do about it."
Shirley Yang said: "The ancient city of Jingjue must be on the Ziduan River, and the notes are definitely correct. According to the notes, you can see the ancient city of Jingjue through two black peaks."
"In Walt's notebook, it is recorded that he also lost traces of the Zidu Dark River in the depths of the Black Desert. In this sea of death with no grass growing, two huge black magnetic mountains faced each other in the afterglow of the setting sun. And stand.”
"They are like two warriors in black armor, silently guarding ancient secrets. Passing through the valley between the two Cishan mountains, a legendary city appears in front of you."
"Then why haven't we seen any mountains yet?"
"I don't know either."
Shirley Yang shook his head.
The fat man turned his head and looked at Hu Bayi.
"Lao Hu, can you use Tianxing Feng Shui to calculate how far away the ancient city of Jingjue is?"
Hu Bayi took out his compass and carefully compared it with the stars in the sky. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "I can't tell."
"It may be that I am not good at studying, or it may be that Jingjue Ancient City was not built according to the Feng Shui pattern when it was built. All these are possible."
Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Fat man, don't be so anxious. I have a hunch that we are almost here at Jingjue Ancient City. If we walk a little further, we will be almost there."
Ye Yixin looked at the water source, "Brother Jiang, Brother Hu, our water source is almost finished."
"What? So fast?"
Hu Bayi and Fatty were surprised.
Shirley Yang said in a deep voice: "We can only continue to move forward now. There must be water in Jingjue Ancient City. As long as we get there, all our problems will be solved."
"Okay, let's go quickly."
Jiang Hua boarded the camel and continued his journey to the ancient city of Jingjue.
Walked for another half day.
Shirley Yang looked at her watch and was stunned for a moment.
"Why doesn't my watch move?"
"Maybe it's broken?" Ye Yixin said.
At this time, Hu Bayi also shouted.
"My compass has stopped moving."
Jiang Hua's eyes flashed with light.
The ancient city of Jingjue is finally here.
