Chapter 897: Pursuit
"It's so comfortable!" the vat opened its arms, gulping in on the fresh air, and his face was full of comfort. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's so rare that there is a gust of fresh wind. Fang Jing couldn't help but say.
Xiao Dong felt weird, the desert temperature was scorching, and the wind blowing out was hot, how could there be such a cool wind for no reason? Could it be that there was a water source nearby?
Chang Dexing is an experienced man, his face changed, and he was about to say something, but he heard the vat shouting: "Look, there are dark clouds ahead, it seems that it is about to rain." ”
It's a rare thing to be able to rain in the desert. Sometimes, this kind of place does not rain for several years or even more than ten years. Unexpectedly, let them run into it.
It rains in the desert, which is naturally a good thing, at least it can make everyone two pieces for a while.
But as soon as the vat's words were finished, Chang Dexing's face changed greatly, and he said: "That's not going to rain, it's a mirage!"
What? Mirage?
Desert Mirage!
Xiao Dong took a closer look and suddenly found that on the sky in front of him, it was not dark clouds rolling up, but a picture. That sky is a good screen, and a movie is playing. As I saw last time, the mirage presents the scene of an ancient civilization, where the trees are lined with greenery and pavilions, like a paradise.
Could it be that the legendary ancient kingdom of Loulan?
Chang Dexing was shocked and exclaimed: "It's the ancient country of Loulan, it's it, it's it!"
Xiao Dong said strangely: "Isn't that a mirage?"
"What I mean is a mirage!" Chang Dexing said excitedly, "Mirages are all things that have happened, because of the special environment, they have been preserved and reflected." This proves that the ancient kingdom really exists, somewhere in the desert. It's so good that I know that this trip will not be in vain, and my ......research for so many years is not in vain. ”
It is conceivable that a professor who has been doing research all his life can not be excited to see that his goal is only this time?
Xiao Dong looked at the gradually forming and clear picture in the distance, and suddenly thought of something, and his face changed greatly: "Everyone retreat quickly, retreat back, the farther the better!"
"Why?" the vat and the leaf row still want to catch up, get closer and understand.
Chang Dexing suppressed his excitement, and when he heard Xiao Dong's words, he also suddenly thought of a question, and shouted repeatedly: "That's right, retreat quickly, otherwise it's too late! Don't forget, last time we encountered a mirage, which caused a sandstorm!"
A word woke up the person in the dream, and the faces of the vat and Ye Pai, who were still excited, changed greatly, and they hurriedly turned around.
"Special mother, how can you forget this stubble, if there is a sandstorm, we will be miserable. The vat scolded the mother.
"Teacher, the sandstorm caused last time doesn't mean that there will be a sandstorm every time, right?" Ye Pai said, "According to the formation of the mirage, it is just a refraction, there is no reason to cause a sandstorm, could it be just a coincidence?"
Logically, it does. Chang Dexing nodded, "However, there are exceptions to everything, we don't know what is strange about this mirage, it is better to be cautious and retreat quickly." ”
A few people in the group turned around, intending to stay away from the mirage.
lest there be another sandstorm and they will weep.
Including Xiao Dong, he has seen the power of the sandstorm and does not dare to underestimate it. It wasn't him who was worried, although the sandstorm was destructive, it was easy for him to protect himself. I'm just worried about one person, and I can't protect everyone.
In order to ensure the safety of the others, Xiao Dong could only choose to retreat.
Sure enough, the desert mirage presented a piece of illusion, as if it was playing a movie, but Xiao Dong felt that this time the speed was much faster than the last time.
The mirage was a reenactment of the last time, and everyone thought it was going to cause a sandstorm again. But I didn't expect that the picture was still going on, but the picture changed to a layer of color, as if it portended the next story, which was not so beautiful.
I saw an oasis-like paradise, the trees began to wither and yellow, and the fallen leaves were flying, and there was a scene of falling. And the pavilion, incomplete, as if it had been destroyed by something. The most important thing is that the crowd of people dressed in colorful clothes inside changed into armor one by one and came to the door in groups, as if they were confronting someone.
The picture suddenly shifts to another group of people. They were also wearing armor, but it was clear at a glance that they were not the same group as the former. They looked very irritable, with all kinds of weapons in their hands, like an army, mighty.
The picture changed again, there was a battle between the men and horses on both sides, and even faintly, their shouts and the sound of weapons colliding could be heard. The flickering pictures were placed in front of everyone like real history.
Chang Dexing was shocked, and stared at the mirage in the distance: "Could it be that that is the reason for the extinction of the ancient kingdom of Loulan? War, yes, it was caused by war! However, this is different from historical research, this ancient country is definitely not as simple as war, there should be other factors ....... ”
Chang Dexing muttered to himself, as if he was stunned, and stood still.
"Teacher, it's just a mirage after all, there are no specific ruins, everything is conjecture, let's avoid a distance first. Fang Jing was worried that the sandstorm would affect them again. She didn't believe that she had so much luck last time, and this time it was okay.
The vat suddenly shouted: "It's not good, the mirage has changed!"
Sure enough, the desert mirage, which looked like a movie screen, began to blur, and as time passed, all the pictures were no longer clear, and finally clicked, flashing countless snowflakes, as if the previous black-and-white TV had lost its signal. Then, only countless pieces of sand and dust remained.
The mirage swept by the hurricane has turned into a huge mushroom cloud, which is a complete sign of an approaching sandstorm.
"Damn, just like last time, it's going to be a sandstorm again!" the vat burst into a foul language and scolded, "Come twice in a row, our character is really enough!"
"Don't talk nonsense, don't run away yet!" Ye Pai scolded.
Chang Dexing also reacted at this time, and hurriedly said, "Go!"
Everyone retreated, hoping to stay away from the mirage. After all, this kind of sandstorm comes and goes quickly. As long as they are far enough away to avoid this sandstorm.
At the same time, there were several pedestrians in the distance, who were also stunned by the mirage. However, they had apparently not encountered a sandstorm, so they stood still and watched.
"Those people are going to be out of luck. The vat shook his head and said.
"Teacher, should we remind them?" Fang Jing was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to let others suffer.
Chang Dexing said helplessly: "The distance is too far, we are afraid that we will tear our throats and shout, and they don't know what we are talking about? ”
After running for more than ten or twenty minutes, several people were out of breath, and they looked like they were about to lose their breath and turn their backs.
It's no wonder that ordinary people can bear it for so long in one breath.
Xiao Dong was different, his face was not red or breathless, he looked like everyone was running away, but in fact, his eyes never left the desert mirage.
Because the last time he felt that something seemed to exist in that desert mirage, he wanted to go and investigate, but before he could get closer, a sandstorm came.
And this time, Xiao Dong has the same feeling.
If last time it was an illusion, this time, it will definitely not be wrong.
There must be something inside that mirage!
Especially when the picture of the mirage becomes blurry and forms a chaotic hurricane, that feeling is particularly strong.
Gotta go and find out!
Xiao Dong made up his mind in his heart, so he let go of Fang Jing and said, "You keep running, I'll go over and take a look." ”
"What? Xiao Dong, you want to go over? What are you kidding, it's a sandstorm, once it breaks out, you can't escape if you want to. The vat's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Stop talking nonsense, run quickly, the farther the better!" Ye Pai also said.
Xiao Dong shook his head and said, "Take care of Fang Jing, I'll go back as soon as I go, if I find that the situation is wrong, I will retreat in time, you just run." ”
"Don't go!" Fang Jing couldn't bear to let Xiao Dong take the risk, grabbed his arm and said, "It's too dangerous, I know you're anxious and want to find the Rehmannia Essence, but then you have to ensure your life, otherwise, what else do you use to find something?"
"It's okay, I know it. Xiao Dong comforted, "Besides, I also found that this time the mirage turned into a sandstorm, and the speed was much slower than last time." We've been running for so long, and it seems to be a long way away from us. So, don't worry. ”
"But ....... Fang Jing was still not at ease, and the jade hand grabbed Xiao Dong tightly, but he didn't let go.
It's urgent, the mirage doesn't always appear, and finally there is a chance, Xiao Dong doesn't want to miss it. If I wait for the next time, I don't know when.
So he had no choice but to shake Fang Jing away, turn around and leave.
He increased his speed, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a black dot and distanced himself from Fang Jing and the others.
"Xiao Dong!" Fang Jing shouted loudly, but her voice gradually dissipated in the air.
Looking at Xiao Dong, who was getting farther and farther away, and finally turned into a black spot, Fang Jing was angry and anxious, and scolded: "This guy, why don't you just listen to it? Why do you want to go over, doesn't he know how dangerous the sandstorm is?!"
"I wondered, what is so beautiful about that mirage?" said the vat depressedly, "Wouldn't it be better if we went directly to the ruins of the ancient country?"
Perhaps, he was too anxious to find the rehmannia essence and save his eldest brother. Ye Pai sighed and said.
Yang Cun didn't understand the sound on the surface, but he was happy in his heart. He wished that Xiao Dong would go to his death, and it was better not to come back. In this way, Fang Jing's thoughts can be broken, and he can also save himself trouble.
For Xiao Dong, Yang Cun can be described as hateful. not only humiliated himself, but also took away the woman he loved, and he couldn't wait to dismantle Xiao Dong.
Now it's okay, Xiao Dong doesn't know what to do, he ran to meet the sandstorm by himself, don't you understand how to send him to death?
Chang Dexing's brows furrowed, he looked at the front of Xiao Dong, who could no longer see Xiao Dong's figure, and said, "Let's continue to retreat, preferably this time, without any danger." ”
