Chapter 266: Exquisite Ancient City

Chen Mo stared at Yuan Qingshan and said suspiciously, "Ruins in the desert?"

Yuan Qingshan's face was calm: "Yes, I went to look for the ruins afterwards, but I didn't find anything." Not enough according to my judgment, the ruins of the tomb robber's mouth should be the famous ruins of Niya. ”

The ruins of Niya, located in the depths of the Taklamakan Desert, known as the Sea of Death, were first discovered by the British archaeologist Stein, who stole a large number of precious cultural relics in the name of archaeology four times in the name of archaeology.

From the written records of those cultural relics, it is finally clear that the origin of the Niya ruins is likely to be the ruins of the Exquisite Kingdom and the Exquisite Ancient City among the 36 Kingdoms of the Ancient Western Regions.

It was once recorded in the Book of Han that the Jingjue Kingdom was a country with a fairly complete system and was prosperous for a while. It's just that later, for unknown reasons, the entire Elite Kingdom suddenly mysteriously disappeared into the dust of history.

Today, more than 2,000 years have passed, and the glory and abandonment of the original Jingjing Kingdom have always been an unsolved mystery that haunts people's hearts.

In his previous life, Chen Mo had heard rumors about the exquisite ancient city, but instead of studying history, he had seen it in some tomb robbery and exploration novels.

But Chen Mo couldn't figure out why there were magic weapons in the ruins of the Exquisite Ancient City!

Could it be that in that mysterious and exquisite ancient city, there used to be immortal cultivators?

From Yuan Qingshan's eyes, Chen Mo could see that Yuan Qingshan was not lying, if that magic weapon was really found in the Exquisite Ancient City, there must be something strange about this Exquisite Ancient City.

Chen Mo looked at Yuan Qingshan and said lightly: "Take me to find the Exquisite Ancient City." ”

Chen Mo's tone carried an unquestionable order, Yuan Qingshan pondered for a moment, and said helplessly: "Okay, but after finding the Exquisite Ancient City, you must let me go!"

"But!" Chen Mo nodded.

Three days later, an old man and a young man arrived at a small town on the northwestern border of China, closest to the Taklamakan Desert in the Sea of Death.

Yuan Qingshan said: "This is the town of Brusse, and most of the people who want to enter the sand sea to find out what is going on will resupply here. Let's get ready, and then find an experienced guide to take us in. ”

Chen Mo was a little puzzled: "Guide, haven't you ever been in?"

Yuan Qingshan was a little embarrassed and said: "I followed an archaeological team to go in, once I entered the desert, there was a sea of sand as far as the eye could see, and I couldn't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest. ”

"Otherwise, even if you are a Transformation Realm Grandmaster, once you get lost, you will die in the desert if you don't eat or drink for a month. ”

Chen Mo was noncommittal, with his strength, he would not get lost in the desert, but if he wanted to find the Exquisite Ancient City, it would be difficult for him to find it without anyone to lead him. After all, he only has the cultivation of the Qi Condensation Realm now, and if he cultivates to the Golden Pill, he can walk in every corner of the desert in one day.

"Then let's go and resupply first, and then find a guide. Chen Mo said helplessly.

The two went to a larger store to buy dry food and water, but they met a group of seven or eight people who were also buying dry food and water. The leader was a scholar with glasses, about 60 years old, and in good health.

Yuan Qingshan suddenly said happily: "Professor Chen, what a coincidence!"

When those people saw Yuan Qingshan, they also showed a look of surprise, and Professor Chen, who was the leader, smiled happily: "Mr. Yuan, let's meet again!

Yuan Qingshan smiled: "Are you guys ready to enter the desert?"

Professor Chen nodded and said, "Yes, I didn't prepare well last time, so I ran in vain, but this time I specially invited a few experts to go in again." ”

"By the way, this is Brother Hu, this is Brother Wang, and this is Miss Yang! The three of them are experts invited by our archaeological team. ”

"This is Mr. Yuan, the last time he entered the desert in distress, thanks to Mr. Yuan's rescue, everyone came to get to know each other!" Professor Chen pointed to the three young people beside him and introduced them to each other.

"Mr. Yuan, I have admired the name for a long time!"

Among the three young men, one of them, a man with long hair, hugged his fist at Yuan Qingshan.

"Hello!" Yuan Qingshan also politely returned the salute.

Chen Mo glanced at these people, they were all ordinary people, they should be a real archaeological team, but those three experts seemed a little weird.

After being polite, Yuan Qingshan looked back at Chen Mo and said with a smile: "Professor Chen, it just so happens that this little brother and I are also going in, why don't we go together?"

Professor Chen was stunned for a moment, and said happily: "Okay, if Mr. Yuan is with us, we will naturally ask for it!

"Chen Mo. Chen Mo said lightly.

"It turned out to be Chen Mo's little brother, but there are many dangers in the desert, what are you doing in the desert at a young age?" Professor Chen asked with a smile.

Chen Mo knew that the other party suspected that his motives were impure, so he said: "Last time, I heard Mr. Yuan talk about all kinds of wonders in the desert, and I yearn for it in my heart, so I want to follow Mr. Yuan to find out this time." ”

"I see, then let's go in together, and we can take care of it!" Professor Chen relieved.

The group was ready and left the store, and the man surnamed Hu said: "Now that the supplies have been purchased, the next step is to find a local experienced guide, let's inquire separately, and we will meet at the small hotel in front of us!"

"Okay!" Professor Chen and the others nodded.

"We'll be in a group of three, you'll be in a group, and we'll gather in an hour!" the man surnamed Hu immediately left with his two companions after the assignment.

Professor Chen smiled and said, "Mr. Yuan, let's go too, go and inquire, and see if there are any good guides in the local area!"

"Professor Chen, in fact, I think the old gentleman last time was good, but I don't know if I can find him. Yuan Qingshan said.

Professor Chen shook his head and said with some regret: "That old gentleman has gone to the mainland and defected to his son, and he is no longer a guide." ”

Yuan Qingshan also sighed slightly: "It's a pity." ”

"It's okay, the most important thing in Brusay Town is a good guide, we can definitely find a better one, let's go!" Professor Chen is very optimistic.

An hour later, the crowd gathered at the agreed place.

After talking, everyone locked on a common goal, Uncle An, known as the living map in the desert.

It's a pity that this Uncle An has a strange temperament, he doesn't want to go in anything, and he also said some alarmist things, saying that it is the wind season and there will be black sandstorms in the desert. Say that the goddess will be angry, and will send calamity, and no one who enters will be able to get out.

In the end, it was the man surnamed Hu who coerced and lured this guy to agree to lead the team into the desert.

But this guy is indeed worthy of being a living map in the desert, the group rode a camel, and walked for several days after entering the desert, everyone was very safe, although they encountered several dangers, but they were also in danger, and they spent it safely, Chen Mo and Yuan Qingshan did not make a move at all.

As time passed, the crowd had gone deep into the desert, and a great crisis had crept in.
