Chapter 1043: Ghost Town in the Desert

How can there be any prosperous ancient city here? It is clearly a dilapidated and desolate scene, the remnants of the ancient bricks, the white bones, the dilapidated ancient city wall is full of dry grass, the sand wind blows, the wild grass moves with the wind, and the hula sounds.

"Huh? This...... How so? But I ??? Ma Chengfeng rubbed his eyes and opened his ghost pupils. The scene in the ghost pupil is no different from the naked eye, and the city is still singing and dancing, prosperous, and prosperous, as if it is a dream of Paris!

"Holy, what the hell is this place? Can't even see my ghost eyes? ”

Cassira let out a long breath. "Fortunately, Xiao Man left marks along the way, otherwise I would have been half a step late, and the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Xiao Man said: "This is a place of right and wrong, don't stay for a long time, everything will wait until tomorrow morning, let's go!" ”

There was a strong wind and sand behind them, and the three of them didn't dare to stay, so they rode on their camels and ran away. This phenomenon is not only inexplicable by Ma Chengfeng, but even the well-informed Khashura has encountered it for the first time.

In the camp, Chu Tianyue had to stay behind to guard the supplies and camel team, she anxiously circled around the camp, and was relieved to see that everyone was back.

"Ma Chengfeng, you bastard, you secretly acted on your own without us? Didn't you say you wouldn't be allowed to go? As soon as she saw that all three of them were drooping their heads, she knew that nothing good had happened to him on this trip.

The three girls surrounded him in the middle, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to talk back. It's dangerous! If it hadn't been for the warning shot fired just now, I guess I would have walked in.

In order to teach him a lesson, the girls ignored him until the morning meal.

"That...... Hey...... Three sisters, I've packed up here and can go at any time. He took the initiative to please others.

"Let's go, go back and see, it's not far anyway." Kashura took the head of the lord of the country with a veil and got on the camel.

"Khasilla, are we still going? Let a sleeping dog lie. Chang Xiaoman didn't agree with everyone taking risks again.

"I agree with Khasilla's decision, no matter what kind of place it is, I should go back and see, I don't believe it's still full of demons in broad daylight?" Chu Tianyue's major is archaeology, and she has a strong interest in all unknown civilizations.

In ancient times, there were two theories about the civilization of the Western Regions on the Silk Road, one of which originated from the Western Zhou Dynasty, during which there were 36 ancient kingdoms in the Western Regions, and in the Tang Dynasty, the 36 countries were merged into the six countries of the Western Regions. The civilization of the six countries in the Western Regions has fascinated the world, and countless archaeologists and scientific researchers have searched in the desert countless times, but they have returned in vain.

"It's not...... Three sisters...... Don't you need to ask my opinion? Ma Chengfeng said with a smile.

"Cheng Feng, show me the map you bought from the locals." Chu Tianyue said as she took out a booklet from her schoolbag, it seemed that this booklet was very precious, and she had three layers inside and three layers outside.

Unfold the booklet, it becomes a complete map, the map is a little yellowed, and the traditional Chinese characters on the top should be left during the Republic of China.

"This is a map of the ancient Silk Road, which was bought from a Frenchman at a high price during the Republic of China, and then translated and retouched. Cheng Feng, you take out your map and point me the approximate location of the ancient city you saw last night. ”

Ma Chengfeng was completely stunned last night, and he had no sense of direction at all when he was rushing in the desert, but fortunately, Chang Xiaoman left a mark along the way.

"What else can you do? Tianyue, don't look at him, he doesn't know anything, I guess, it's probably in this area. Xiao Man used a red pen to make a mark on the map that Ma Chengfeng bought.

Chu Tianyue put the two maps together and made a comparison. In the end, they came to the conclusion that the ancient city they had been to last night was one of the lost Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions, Qiuzi Wulei.

"Oh my God, if all this is true, Cheng Feng, you're going to make the headlines of international archaeological newspapers! Come on! Chu Tianyue was extremely excited, turned over and jumped on the camel, and followed the mark left by Xiao Man in the sand with Kashula.

"I'm ...... Why are they like they have been beaten with chicken blood? Didn't you count me like a grandson last night? ”

During the day, the vision was much better, and the marks left by Xiao Man were still clearly visible, and the caravan followed these marks for about two hours, and finally saw the sand dunes in front of them. It was here that Khashura picked them up last night.

"Huh, down there?" Ma Chengfeng pointed out the direction to Chu Tianyue.

The camel team climbed the sand dunes and looked down, the terrain below the dunes was relatively flat, but for some reason, a whirlwind blew inexplicably, and the whirlwind swept the yellow sand into the air, covering the area of the ancient city last night. From here, you can hardly find anything.

"Let's go!" Chu Tianyue led everyone and rushed down from the sand dunes.

The sand wind was extremely violent, far more powerful than the wind and sand that everyone had encountered in the desert in the past few days, and before they could get close to the edge of this whirlwind, the violent sand had already knocked them to the ground. The camels are very experienced, and they are connected end to tail, one after the other, and they are all tied to each other with ropes, and no amount of wind and sand can wash them away. The four of them lay on the camel's back, their hands clutching the hump.

Chu Tianyue, who was walking in the forefront, seemed to be shouting something to them when she turned around, but the wind and sand were too big, and her ears were full of whirring sounds, and she couldn't hear a word.

In this way, they walked slowly in the violent wind and sand for about ten minutes, during which they could not open their eyes, could not speak, and could not help each other, so they could only resign themselves to fate and pin their hopes on these camels.

After a while, the sound of the wind in my ears gradually faded, and then there was a crisp clatter sound from the feet of the camels. Ma Chengfeng squinted his eyes and looked down, there were white bones under his feet, and every time the camel stepped down, he would trample those dry white bones to pieces. They had already walked from the edge of the cyclone into the center, this cyclone was actually a tornado, the tornado was only the outermost layer of strong wind, the further they went, the weaker the wind, and when they entered the center of the tornado, there was hardly any wind and sand in sight. It's calmer than the outside world.

The ruins of this ancient city are completely enveloped in tornadoes, and it's no wonder that they have not been discovered for so many years.

But why was it last night? Why did last night's tornado stop? Is it because of the caravan? Are they going to go in while the tornado is stopping?

"How's everybody? Are you okay? They finally walked in from the periphery of the tornado, the ruins of the ancient city were calm, Chu Tianyue hurriedly jumped off the camel to check if there was any baggage missing.
