Chapter 684, Loulan Ancient City
Under such a strong tornado, the thick sand was quickly blown apart, and under Qin Jue's control, the tornado continued to invade downward, and for half an hour, a golden glazed tile finally leaked out.
", there really is a palace? Could this be the legendary buried ancient city of Loulan?" Xuanwu was slightly stunned, his face full of surprise.
This is the character of the wealth fan, the legendary ancient country of Loulan chokes the throat of the Silk Road, once extremely prosperous, from the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Loulan is between the Han and the Xiongnu belong uncertainly, several times announced the sincerity of the Han Dynasty, there are several times to surrender and rebel, so that how many ancient and modern oaths to behead Loulan.
"Yellow sand wears gold armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never ......be returned if it is not broken"
It's a pity that there are thousands of mountains and rivers between the two, the sea is dry and rotten, the sea is horizontal, and then the whole Lop Nur became a desert, and Guloulan is also the last oasis in the desert, but it is a pity that this seemingly natural barrier of the desert has not been able to support the continuation of Guloulan, and it has been destroyed in Si, and the Guloulan that was at its peak was finally swallowed up by the boundless yellow sand, and completely disappeared in the long river of history.
However, now, as if fate has unveiled a glimmer of opportunity, the dusty kingdom has reappeared, and everyone at this time is the witness.
Whew......
The wind was still howling, and the whole ancient city was completely revealed, buried in the sand for thousands of years, the ancient city was still intact, the wide streets were made of bluestone slabs, the buildings were scattered on both sides, there were countless houses in the distance, and along the avenue to the northeast, stood a luxurious palace.
The golden glazed tiles shine brightly, the vermilion walls are carved and painted, and the white jade steps are paved all the way to the backyard of the palace, which is really luxurious. The trees in the distance had long since decayed, and under the attack of the storm, they turned into flying ash and scattered in the wind and dust.
"The glorious and prosperous times have finally turned to dust, and everything has long been buried thousands of years ago. Qin Jue sighed, and then stopped the movement in his hand.
The storm subsided, and the entire desert soon cleared up again, and the blazing heat wave swept in again, and Qin Jue led everyone to walk forward.
"Do you think there are a lot of civil and military antiques here that shocked the world, as the legend says? If that guy takes it out and sells it, it will be worth a lot of money, right?" Even though he is far beyond ordinary people now, Xuanwu still can't please the true nature of the wealth fan, but this can't hang him, it's just that he was too poor when he was a child.
"No matter how beautiful the utensils are, they are just an ornament, and those treasures on your body, you can crush them with a random one, and they must be more valuable, how about it? Qin Jue teased and smiled coldly.
"No matter how beautiful the ancient city is, it will eventually disappear in the dust of history, no one's Jedi, even if it is luxurious, it has no meaning after all, even if there is a desire to reproduce this Loulan ancient city in the world, but there is no water source here, and it will eventually be swallowed by the desert in the long run, sighing in vain, all this is the trajectory of history, and it is also the cause and effect of people themselves. ”
Walking through the streets, Qin Jue didn't seem to have any intention of entering the palace at all, his divine sense spread out, and he explored the ancient city for a moment before pointing in a direction to the southeast.
"Let's go, there may be a trace there. ”
"Did you find anything?" Qin Zulong asked curiously.
"No, only there I can't see the bottom!"
Walking in, everyone knew what Qin Jue said, this dry well, it seems that it has been dry for I don't know how many years, but there is a stone statue standing in front of the dry well, and the stone statue is somewhat similar to the Di Ting carved on the seal of the King of Prison in Qin Jue's hand.
"Shouldn't it be this dry well that connects the Dead Realm?" Xuanwu was curious, and stretched out his head to look forward.
It was pitch black inside, and there was no bottom to be seen, and not only that, but the black fog inside seemed to be able to isolate the divine sense, so that people couldn't find out how deep the bottom was and where it led.
"It's indeed a bit weird, but this black mist doesn't seem to be dead qi, and it's also different from the rotten qi of the rotten people, can it really lead to the dead realm from here?" Qin Zulong asked suspiciously, his face full of suspicion.
Qin Jue also frowned slightly, playing with the Amber Mandarin Duck and the Prison King Seal in his hand, his face was a little gloomy.
"I have always felt that the legend about the crossing of Pisces Jade Pendant and Yin Soldier is not groundless, I have explored it just now, this huge ancient city, there is no corpse, according to common sense, if the original Gu Loulan was really covered by the wind and sand, most of the people in the city were not spared, buried in the sand for so long, the biggest possibility is to become a dry corpse, just like those trees, although decayed, but it remains the original appearance. It's just that there isn't anything here, and maybe that's already telling. ”
"Are you saying that before Gu Lou Lan was buried, their entire clan migrated to the Dead Realm? This means that the King of Gu Lou Lan had already communicated with the four corpse ancestors and was fully prepared before he was willing to let the habitat of the generations be buried here forever by the wind and sand?" Qin Zulong said in a low voice, and his face was also cold.
"Even if this is not the case, this Gu Loulan King must be inseparable from the Dead Realm, otherwise, how can this Prison King Seal be a Yin soldier in transit? The so-called Yin soldiers, if I expected it to be good, are the army of the Dead Desperate Domain, the reason why they will move on a large scale, maybe they have opened some kind of channel, which can connect to the mortal realm, and the Yin soldiers who appeared before are making some kind of attempt to verify whether this channel is stable, but unfortunately, they just appeared not long after, they were discovered by the relevant parties, in order to completely destroy all this, they simply tested the nuclear bomb here, and completely destroyed everything, so that the Dead Desperate Domain was silent again for so many years. Qin Jue explained in a low voice.
"It's just that I don't understand one more thing, if it's really like the boss you said, then how can you explain the Pisces Jade Pendant? This doesn't seem to be relevant at all, right?" Xuanwu asked with a slightly gloomy face.
"No, it's very relevant!" Qin Zulong said hurriedly, " The reason why the Pisces jade pendant changed and caused a series of absurdities was because the parallel spaces happened to overlap at that time, and the Dead Realm also noticed this, so they followed the gap in the overlap of the space, and wanted to rush into this world, but unfortunately only sent a small number of Yin soldiers to try, and before their large army came, the explosion of the nuclear bomb completely tore the space apart, and the parallel space was completely disordered, so that they completely lost the opportunity to march in a big way。 ”
"It's a bit mysterious to say this, besides, can the predecessors see so far-reaching? Aren't they cultivators?" Xuanwu frowned, full of disbelief.
"Let's not talk about the things of the predecessors for the time being, but the hand of testing and detonating a nuclear bomb is indeed a clever game! I came up with a parallel space, these two times were originally connected, but this connection should have been one-way at first, mortals can break into the dead realm on a large scale, but the people in it can't get out at all, so the king of Guloulan has the opportunity to lead the people to escape there when the ancient city is about to fall, but whether it is the dead realm or the king of Guloulan, their ultimate goal is to come back, so they left the Pisces jade pendant and this seal as a token, hoping to return to this homeland one day。 Although they waited for the opportunity later, they failed to seize it at all, but under the layout and efforts of the worlds, the initial passage was broken by them in a special way, so that Hou Qing could lead a few of his subordinates to break through the boundary and wreak havoc on this world.
If this is really what we suspected, looking around the ruins of this ancient city, only this dry well is most likely to be a passage. ”
Qin Jue said solemnly, and his face couldn't help but smile lightly.
"Uh...... It's getting more and more mysterious, but if it's going to be somewhere else, then we're not going to make a trip for nothing, and if we don't come back, then it's bad......"
Xuanwu was full of suspicions, but he gave full play to his skill of lifting the bar, and indeed everything they said was just conjecture, and there was nothing to prove.
"No, I think it can still be verified, you can see it!" Qin Jue chuckled lightly and casually threw the amber mandarin duck into the dry well.
"Just throw it away, don't you give it to me......" Xuanwu's face was slightly stunned, and he complained in a low voice. Watching the delicate jade pendant slowly fall, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his flesh.
Qin Jue glanced at him, his face full of disdain.
At the moment when the amber mandarin duck was about to fall into the black mist, his handprint suddenly turned, and the jade pendant stopped there in an instant, suspended in the air, and no longer continued to fall.
"Damn, it's hard to try without a living thing, do any of you have any pets on you?" Qin Jue asked in a low voice.
Everyone shook their heads, there was no way to keep living creatures for a long time in the ring space, so no one would bring any pets at all, even the iron-eating beast that had been following Chitaki Phantom Ji before, was left in the Emperor's Hall by her and became the sect's protector beast. However, this guy hit it off at first sight with the gorilla that Qin Jue brought back from Qishan, and they almost bowed to each other when they met, and they had a hot time together.
"Grandma, I can't count on you, fortunately, I have a killer idea!" With a low snort, Qin Jue's heart moved, and he saw a fiery red phoenix the size of a finger fly out of his body. The phoenix crouched in Qin Jue's palm and glanced at everyone, full of a lofty posture.
"Damn, it's really a phoenix, how did such a small phoenix run into your body, boss?" Xuanwu was not surprised, stepped forward to look at the phoenix carefully, and said in a low voice, "No wonder the boss can summon the dragon and phoenix vision so easily......?"
Qin Zulong also looked at it curiously, and chuckled: "You don't really plan to throw it down, right?" Looking at its arrogant expression, I'm afraid it won't dump you at all, right?"
Glaring at the two of them, Qin Jue said in a low voice: "Cut, are you willing, Lao Tzu is still reluctant? If something happens, where will you find an identical one to compensate me?" Don't look at it as a phoenix, but it was originally transformed by the Golden Cicada Gu Mother in my body, so secretly I also had the errand of the Gu Mother, and it was not a problem to divide a few Gu worms. ”
As he spoke, his mind moved, and a few wriggling red dots ran out from under the wings of the phoenix, and when he looked closely, he realized that it was really a Gu worm the size of a hair.
"Obediently, that phoenix is raised as a Gu worm, and you are no one else, boss!" Xuanwu hurriedly gave Qin Jue a thumbs up.
"Go! I don't bother to talk to you. Scolding in a low voice, Qin Jue flicked his fingers, and several Gu worms floated towards the well.
After watching it for a long time, Yue Yue was also very curious, and stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Husband, it's pitch black down here, how do we know that this Gu worm is really a mirror image?"
Smiling lightly, Qin definitely glanced at the phoenix and said in a low voice: "Okay, don't hold it, summon all the Gu worms back!"
The phoenix gave him a blank look, as if he was disdainful, but he did as he could.
After a while, the Gu worms returned to Qin Jue's hands again, originally three went down, but there were six that came back, which was twice as much.
"Well, is it really a mirror image? So parallel space really exists?" Xuanwu hurriedly came over.
"Dead fatty, stay away from me! Look at your ignorant appearance, the old lady is afraid that you will infect me with your retarded mind!" Phoenix finally spoke, but when he came up, he scolded Xuanwu, "How can there be any parallel space, but it is only the instability of the spatial barrier between the two spaces that will cause this projection-like phenomenon, you seem to have twice as many Gu worms, but in fact it is only the first three." The reason for this instability is that the two spaces are violently too close together, but they are not fully connected. In this case, it is indeed possible to pass through this barrier with the help of some means, but the stronger spatial laws are complete, so it is much more difficult to go down in comparison, and it is much easier to go from weak to strong. Although the ancient worlds were all opened up by Pangu, the final combing was divided by the Dao Ancestor, so for these two spaces, you should have a number, stinky boy......"
was despised by a phoenix, and Qin Jue also seemed to have a little resentment. I saw him sigh helplessly, and explained in a low voice: "The Dead Realm is a branch that came out of the decay, and has been migrating for countless eras, as for when they arrived here, and how they intersected with this mortal world, I have no way of knowing. But now that all the puzzles have been solved, this should be the way to the Dead Realm. ”
As he spoke, Qin Jue casually threw down the Prison King Seal in his hand, and sure enough, where the seal passed, the black mist began to disperse, but the places where it passed also began to merge.
"Okay, let's take this opportunity to go down, and we won't let them perceive our aura because of breaking the spatial barrier. ”
Everyone didn't have any delay, and jumped down with Qin Jue.
At this time, the phoenix shook and scolded.
"Through the seal of others, I can't feel any of your breath, and I don't know who your kid is going to Yin again, alas...... , no wonder none of the strong men in the heavens can compare to you, the key is that none of you have a black belly......"
