Chapter 266 Under the Shuanghei Mountains, Corpses Hanging on the City


Cheers spread.

The alarmed Chen Yulou and his party quickly stood up from the sand valley.

Even Pat, who had always only wanted to take care of the camels, could not hide his surprise on his face. He punched a wooden stick and followed the others up the sand dunes.

With the support of several young guys, I finally reached the top. I took a few deep breaths, suppressed my breathing, stretched out my hands to build a pergola, and looked into the distance.

I saw the end of the rolling world.

A black line faintly appeared.

Unfortunately, he is old and has dazzled eyes, so he cannot see clearly.

"It's not an illusion..."

Pat muttered to himself in a low voice.

He rubbed his eyes a few more times.

After the wind and snow, the weather became clearer and clearer. The sunshine, which had disappeared for more than half a month, also became blazing, giving a rare warm feeling when it fell on the body.

Wipe off the dust covering your face.

Stare with wide eyes.

After a long time, Pat finally saw the black line clearly.

It feels like there is a black dragon lying quietly in the thousands of miles of yellow sand. The mountains move closer from both sides to the middle, and finally rise up to form two high mountains.

Between the two mountains, it's like a heavenly gate stands.

It gives people an incomparable sense of mystery.

I can’t help but want to cross the Tianmen and go inside the sacred mountain to find out.

He stayed in Kunmo City for decades.

Although this is the first time I have come to the Black Desert, I have heard countless rumors about it over the years.

Every time the businessmen who come and go mention it, they always have endless stories to tell.

It’s been a long time.

Even Pat himself couldn't tell whether those were true or false.

So much so that when he looked at the undulating black mountains in the sky, he wondered if he had been caught in the devil's illusion.

Among the many rumors.

One of the most widely circulated sayings is.

The people who once lived in the black desert offended the gods, were abandoned by the gods, cut off from life, and became the residence of devils.

And once someone breaks into it rashly.

You will be targeted by the devil.

They will do everything possible and use various terrorist methods to prevent outsiders from entering the desert.

Man-eating beasts, murderous monsters.

But the most terrifying thing is the mirage that cannot be seen through.

At the moment before death, many people will see many wonders such as oases, large lakes, and ancient cities.

Give hope to those who are dying.

But when they go through all kinds of hardships, they will find that it is all an illusion, an illusion that leads people completely to the abyss of death.

Because of this.

Only Pat will doubt whether what he sees now is real?

But he was still hesitant. The three brothers and sisters who came up first were trembling with excitement when they looked at the two black mountains.

Holy Mountain!

A scene that has appeared in dreams countless times.

It really appears before my eyes at this moment.

It’s hard to empathize without being there.

"Double Black Mountain."

"Senior brother...it is it."

"We finally found it!"

Hua Ling covered her lips. She thought she was strong enough, but the moment she really saw it, she found that her emotions were beyond her control, and the hot tears couldn't stop falling.

Although the old foreigner on the side seemed calm.

But his red eyes and trembling shoulders clearly revealed his inner feelings at this moment.

I have heard about the Holy Mountain since I was a child.

He never thought that he would one day set foot here.

Kongquehe, Shuangheishan, to Kongqueshan, Shuanghei Village.

The once prosperous tribe is now left with only a lonely, deserted ghost village.

At this moment, his heart was surging, as if countless waves had hit him.

Countless figures appeared in his mind.

Finally, the image was fixed on the thin, stern face of the senior brother.

Since the death of Taoist Taoist Mianshan in the previous generation, it has been all supported by him alone for so many years.

The suffering they have endured is far beyond their imagination.

So after leaving the village, the old foreigner would work hard to practice martial arts, study the many secret techniques of the Bishan lineage, and take the initiative to take on the task of exploring the way to the tomb.

I just want to share the burden for my senior brother.

But even so, he still saw many times with his own eyes the scene where the senior brother was seriously injured, unable to suppress the ghost curse, and vomiting blood.

Especially before entering Bottle Mountain.

The curse breaks out more and more frequently.

The spitted blood also changed from scarlet to golden.

So much so that during that period, he couldn't sleep all night long. Whenever he closed his eyes, he would see the scene of his senior brother's death. It haunted him like a nightmare.

However, the senior brother thought that he knew nothing, or he just didn’t want him and Hua Ling to worry.

Every time I pretend like nothing has happened.

But the old foreigner knew...if it hadn't been for that golden elixir that allowed him to practice and enter the country, the ghost curse on his senior brother would have completely broken out.

This is why he respects Chen Yulou so much.

For this day, the ancestors of Zagrama have waited for thousands of years, and the senior brother has also suffered for thousands of days and nights.

Now, I finally got through all the dark nights and saw the light.

The old foreigner clenched his fists tightly.

Trying not to let the tears fall in my eyes.

“Yes.”

“Found it!”

After being silent for a long time, Partridge Whistle let out a long breath.

He looked deeply at the two mountains on the horizon.

I just feel that my heartstrings, which have been stretched all my life, are finally able to relax at this moment.

“Really?”

Kunlun, Yang Fang, Huamaguai and Hong girl have been afraid to speak.

After hearing his words, I subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and felt happy for them from the bottom of my heart.

"Then what are you waiting for?"

"Shopkeeper, Mr. Yang, I'm going to let the brothers set off!"

Huamaguai rubbed his hands and said impatiently.

“Okay!”

Chen Yulou naturally would not refuse.

But Partridge Whistle rarely shook his head, "The brothers have been hurrying slowly these days. We are exhausted physically and mentally. Let's let them have a good rest first."

"After all, Shuangheishan is there, and It won’t disappear.”

“Isn’t it?”

Seeing his lips pursed, his eyes were calm.

Chen Yulou also glanced at him unexpectedly.

Be calm in every big event.

These words are easy to say, but hard to achieve.

Ask yourself, if he were like a partridge whistle, and the holy mountain he yearns for is so close at hand, it would be difficult for him to remain so peaceful.

"This..."

Huamaguai, who was already about to turn around and go down the mountain, paused and subconsciously turned around. His eyes swept back and forth between him and Chen Yulou. Obviously, Can't make up my mind.

"Since Brother Yang has said so."

"Then let the brothers have a good rest and be energetic before taking action."

Putting away his thoughts, Chen Yulou said to him Waving his hand, "A sharpened knife will never stop chopping wood."

"Yes, from the shopkeeper."

Hearing this, Huamaguai took back his thoughts.

The group of people were not in a hurry to return, and just stood on the sand dunes, silently looking into the distance, admiring the desert scenery in the winter.

Gradually, Hua Ling and the old foreigner finally calmed down.

Just the joy is still beyond words.

Chen Yulou took advantage of their rest and walked alone among the sand dunes, but his mind contacted Luofu again after many days.

If it weren’t for the spiritual pull.

Its movements can always be detected.

Chen Yulou even wondered whether it had already crossed the Black Desert and gone to the Kunlun Mountains.

At this moment, a thought was sent.

Not long after, a black shadow as thin as sand and dust appeared in the endless blue sky.

We are about to let him go to explore outside Shuangheishan first.

But before he spoke, a strange look suddenly flashed across his expression. In addition to Luofu's figure in the sky, there are clearly several black shadows on the side.

Looking closely, they were clearly the goshawks we saw when we passed through the Tianshan Mountains before.

They are the absolute overlords of the sky in the entire Western Region.

Even the argali, which lives in the snow line all year round, cannot escape the pursuit of snow leopards, nor can it avoid the hunting of goshawks.

But at this moment, looking at the flight paths of those goshawks, it was clear that they were grazing for Luofu.

Seeing this scene, even Chen Yulou, who knew Luofu's character well, couldn't help but be a little stunned.

I know this guy is getting wilder and wilder.

But he really didn’t expect that he would be so wild.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying on grass carp about taming an eagle. This is because eagles, such birds of prey, are wild and difficult to tame. Therefore, even the most experienced falcon tamers can hardly train an eagle in less than a year and a half. Wild Eagle Tamed.

It must take time to cook slowly.

This is how the word "Ao Ying" came into being.

But Chen Yulou only saw it a few days ago when he was in Gumozhou, and it was still alone at that time.

That is to say.

How many goshawks did it forcibly capture in just a few days?

You can guess without even thinking about it. With Luofu's domineering character, he definitely doesn't have the patience to slowly tame him. There is a high probability that he will suppress it directly with the blood of Phoenix.

For a moment, even he couldn't help but sympathize with those goshawks.

However, this thought did not last long.

Exhaled and conveyed his thoughts.

Soon a clear chirping sound came from my mind.

Looking up again, several black shadows quickly disappeared above the head and headed straight for the Double Black Mountain in the distance.

As the lair of the snake god.

Chen Yulou knows the horror of Shuangheishan better than anyone else.

If you are an ordinary person, with your five senses and six consciousnesses closed, you still cannot feel the terrifying power of heaven. However, the stronger your strength and the higher your cultivation, the more severe the pressure you will experience.

Three feathers have sprouted from the back of Luofu's tail.

This means that the Phoenix bloodline has awakened to a very deep level.

If it falls forcibly onto the Double Black Mountain.

The suppressive power from the snake god's bones will definitely seriously injure it.

Although the Snake God is dead, the ability to create illusions in his mind has not disappeared. The ghost cave where the bones are buried is equivalent to a vast place.

No matter how strong Luofu is, it cannot be its opponent.

Therefore, Chen Yulou's order to it was to spy.

But that guy Luofu is also smart. At this moment, through the spiritual seed, he is clearly tens of meters behind, driving the three goshawks forward to do something.

"The shopkeeper's..."

While he was still immersed in the novel experience of Luofu's perspective.

The voice of Huamaguai came.

A ray of golden light gathered in Chen Yulou's eyes and turned clear instantly.

“It’s almost time to rest.”

“Look, should we set off now?”

Hearing this, Chen Yulou subconsciously turned around and looked at the bottom of the sand dune. The guys who were sitting everywhere, holding naan bread and water to replenish their energy, have already stood up.

Almost half an hour before and after.

Most of the energy has been restored by now, and they are looking at the group of people on the top of the mountain, waiting for orders.

“Let’s set off.”

“Okay!”

After receiving the accurate reply, Huamaguai couldn’t stop smiling on his face.

He is not too curious about Shuangheishan, but... the ancient city of Jingjue is right at the foot of the mountain.

A regime that has ruled the countries in the Western Regions for many years.

Even if it’s just a small country.

But the city must also be extremely luxurious.

This can be seen from Xiye and Gumozhou.

As long as you dig out the ancient city of Jingjue, this trip to the Western Regions will not be in vain. Maybe one trip back and forth will be worth the busy work of previous years.

After all, apart from the imperial mausoleums, even the large tombs of the Tang and Song dynasties, where thick burials were prevalent, could not contain as much as a city.

"Brothers, let's go!"

Took a few steps forward quickly.

Huamaguai shouted uncontrollably.

In an instant, the shouts in the sand valley were like thunder, and everyone who had stopped to wait jumped on the backs of camels, crossed the sand dunes, and rushed towards the black mountain range in the distance.

Viewed from the sand dunes, it seems that they are only thirty or fifty miles apart.

But Wangshan ran to death.

The team set off at three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was not until dark that they finally approached the boundary of the Holy Mountain.

It is hard to imagine that a rolling mountain would suddenly appear in the endless sea of ​​sand.

Chen Yulou, who was sitting on the back of a camel, looked calm. He had asked Luofu to explore in advance before setting off.

Although I had guessed that someone had entered the city early, I did not notice the presence of any living person.

By the light of the sky that has not completely disappeared.

You can still clearly see that the Double Black Mountains, regarded as sacred by the Zagrama clan, are more appropriately described as two huge stones than mountains.

It’s just that its size is a bit exaggerated.

Occupying an area of ​​tens of kilometers, only a shallow back is exposed in the sand sea. The absolute part is like the tip of the iceberg, submerged in the depths of the sand sea.

"Oona, which direction is the ancient city?"

Chen Yulou looked around.

Although I feel that Shuanghei Mountain is a bit unworthy of its name, from the perspective of Feng Shui, this place occupies the geographical situation and swallows up everything. Compared with when I passed the Qinling Mountains that day, I could see the eight hundred miles of dragon veins in the distance.

This means that the environment is too harsh and it is too far away from the Central Plains Dynasty.

Otherwise.

Based on the dragon vein pattern of this place, it may not be another Lishan or Jiuwei.

Looking away from the two black magnetic mountains, Chen Yulou turned to look at Oona behind him and asked in a low voice.

At this moment, her eyes were full of memories.

It seems to remind me of the shock when I walked through the vast black desert with Atta and saw the Double Black Mountains for the first time many years ago.

“At the southern foot.”

Seeing her ask, Oona raised her hand and pointed in a direction.

Chen Yulou didn’t delay either.

It is getting dark now, so we must make plans in advance, and setting up camp in the city is the top priority.

The Partridge Whistle obviously knew this, so he suppressed his impulse and followed the team around the foot of the mountain.

About ten minutes later.

The last ray of the setting sun sets on the horizon of the sand sea.

A huge ancient city, like a girl holding a pipa, half-hiding her face, finally took off the gauze on her face and suddenly appeared in the eyes of everyone.

Looking up.

Countless ruins, towers and high walls are rooted in the yellow sand.

The most eye-catching one is undoubtedly a tilted black stone tower.

I don't know why, but the moment he saw it, Chen Yulou was inexplicably reminded of the Guping Mountain, which was also skewed and inserted horizontally among countless green mountains like bamboo shoots.

“It’s so magnificent!”

“This is the capital city. The previous Xiye and Gumozhou were too petty.”

“Damn, How big is this city? Can it accommodate 100,000 people? "

Although most of the ancient city of Jingjue has collapsed and weathered after thousands of years of wind and sand erosion, you can still get a glimpse of what it was like back then from those ancient buildings and pavilions. Magnificent.

A bunch of guys looked straight in the eye.

They couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

This is the first real ancient city they saw after entering the desert.

Looking at the undulating city walls in the sand dunes, the outer city and the inner city combined are at least dozens of miles in radius, which is no worse than the ancient city of the Central Plains Dynasty.

“Let’s go, let’s go into the city.”

After the brief shock, Huamaguai led a small team into the city to investigate the truth.

Everyone holds a torch in his hand.

Looking from a distance, it looks like a fire dragon walking through the dark night.

It’s just...

Just approaching the outside of the city and not having time to enter.

The smile on Huamaguai's face suddenly froze, her heartbeat was thundering, and she looked more frightened than seeing a ghost.

See.

The front is not far away.

The ancient city gate collapsed with only half left.

A total of thirteen corpses were hung on the gate tower, and the corpses had dried.

All of them, with blue eyes and curly hair, were clearly foreign devils like the people they met outside Xiye City that day.

At this moment, it is swaying gently in the night wind.

It’s just like...every household in Xiangxi Hunan will smoke bacon during the New Year and hang it in a row on the beams! (End of this chapter)
