Chapter 902: It's Not Simple
The vast desert gradually returned to calm, and the mirage storm like a mushroom cloud had slowly disappeared with the departure of Blue Neodymium. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć The tumbling dust and sand also fell to the ground, becoming a drop in the ocean again.
There was a silence in my ears, making people wonder if what had just happened had really happened?
Xiao Dong took a deep breath and couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was bent on chasing Lan Siying, this time he finally ran into it, but the other party didn't know him, it was really funny. Still, he won't give up no matter what. He has always been indebted to Lan Siying, if it weren't for him, Lan Siying would not have left, and the current situation would not have happened.
After cleaning up his mood, Xiao Dong raised his eyes and looked, but there was no figure around, so he jumped up and went to find Fang Jing and the others.
He suddenly thought of a question, that is, since the mirage has a relationship with the ancient country of Loulan, does that mean that his wife has a relationship with the ancient country? And judging from the clothes of his wife just now, it is very likely. If Chang Dexing can find the ruins of the ancient kingdom of Loulan, does it mean that he can see his wife again?
Thinking of this, Xiao Dong's heart ignited a wave of hope again, he quickly swept through the sky, and not long after, he saw a group of people from a distance, it was Fang Jing and others. It seemed that they had already walked some distance and were resting in place.
"What's going on? The mirage is gone. The vat looked into the distance and said strangely, "What the hell, I ran for nothing, and this time it didn't cause a sandstorm at all." ā
"It looked like it was about to explode just now, why did it disappear quietly?" Ye Pai scratched the back of his head in confusion.
Chang Dexing frowned and said, "Since it didn't cause a sandstorm, it couldn't be better." Could it be that you still want to eat sand one by one?"
"Teacher, let's go back quickly, Xiao Dong hasn't come back yet, I'm worried that he is in danger. Fang Jing had been worried about Xiao Dong's situation all the way, and now that he saw the mushroom cloud disappearing, he couldn't help but say.
"Fang Jing, that kid doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, he ran to see some mirage alone, and he is estimated to have been swept away a long time ago. Yang Cun said cool words beside him, "Whether you can survive or not is still a question." In my opinion, as if this person had never appeared, we would continue our mission and leave him alone. ā
"Yang Cun, you're starting again?!" Fang Jing's face sank and he said.
Yang Cun pursed his lips, not daring to say more, facing Fang Jing to part ways with him again and draw a clear line.
However, Chang Dexing also spoke: "Fang Jing, Xiao Dong, this person is too mysterious, we don't know his situation at all, I think he must also have his own purpose." If he comes back, we'll continue to work together, and if he doesn't, forget it. ā
"But ....... "Where can Fang Jing let go of Xiao Dong, you know, this man, but the only man she liked for the first time in her life, it didn't take long for him to disappear, how could she feel good in her heart?
"Okay, I didn't say it doesn't matter, let's go back the way we came, if we can find him, it would be great, if you can't find him, don't force it. After Chang Dexing finished speaking, he ordered the rest of the people to start packing up their things and walk forward.
Even Chang Dexing said this, Fang Jing naturally couldn't refute, so he could only follow the team sullenly, at the same time, his eyes couldn't stop scanning the surroundings, hoping to see Xiao Dong's figure, but unfortunately, half a day had passed, and he still hadn't found it.
"Hey, you said that Brother Xiao Dong doesn't look like an exaggerated person, why was he so impulsive at that time, and rashly rushed to see some mirage storm. That thing is so powerful, he knows it himself, a careless, but he will lose his life. As he walked, he said, "No matter how powerful he is, how can he beat this storm of nature." ā
"Yes, it's all impulsive, presumably Brother Xiao Dong also wants to know about Rehmannia Jing and wake up his eldest brother, so he took such a risk. Ye Pai also said with a regretful face, "I hope he's okay, there aren't many people like him who are angry." ā
For Xiao Dong's impression, the vat and leaf row are still extremely good.
However, Yang Cun next to him sneered in his heart, he really turned his elbow outward, and his own people did not protect him, so he thought about outsiders. He wished that Xiao Dong would not come back, and that it would be better to die in the mirage storm. In this way, it also saves a lot of trouble, and the most important thing is that no one can compete with him for Fang Jing.
But before he could be happy for a few seconds, he heard a faint voice coming: "Everyone, I'm back." ā
Everyone's faces changed, and then they said happily: "Xiao Dong? It's really you, you're ghostly, you scared me to death, where did you come from?"
"Brother Xiao Dong, are you okay?"
"Xiao Dong!" Among them, Fang Jing was the most excited, the moment he saw Xiao Dong, he subconsciously rushed up, poured into his arms, hugged him tightly, and beat him hard, "You bastard, dead bastard, let you not go, you just want to go, don't you know how dangerous it is there? I have been worried about you all the time, and I don't know ...... to come back early." ā
Xiao Dong couldn't cry or laugh, this reaction seems to be a bit big.
Xiao Dong coughed lightly, helped Fang Jing up, and said in a low voice: "What, everyone else is watching, pay attention to your image." ā
Fang Jing woke up suddenly, and with a swipe, he broke free from Xiao Dong's embrace, and when he saw the expressions of the vat and the others, he couldn't help but blush his cheeks, and he was ashamed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.
The vat was also interesting this time, coughed dryly, pretended not to see anything, and asked, "Brother Xiao Dong, it would be great if you could come back." However, we have been looking for you for most of the day, and we haven't seen any shadows, how did you suddenly appear?"
"I actually came back to look for you a long time ago, just now I was behind you, chasing all the way, didn't you see?" Xiao Dong said with a serious face.
"Nope. The vat said in wonder.
"It's normal not to see, after all, there are countless hills in this desert, undulating, and sometimes even if you are up close, you may not be able to see your beloved son. Ye Pai said and said, "Brother Xiao Dong, we are still worried about you for a long time, you are fine, it is really fortunate." ā
Originally, Yang Cun, who was still dark in his heart and cursed Xiao Dong for not being as good as dying, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely. As soon as this idea came to me, I slapped myself in the face.
Damn Xiao Dong, why did you come back?
How didn't you die in the mirage storm!
Yang Cun was so angry that his teeth itched, and the last person he wanted to see was Xiao Dong. However, Xiao Dong came back like this, only letting him grit his teeth, but he was helpless.
Chang Dexing had a serious face, stared at Xiao Dong and asked, "Brother Xiao Dong, did you find anything when you went to chase the mirage storm this time?"
"Hey, I didn't find anything except the dust rolling in the sky. Xiao Dong sighed and said with a disgraced face, "If I knew this, I might as well not go." I was close to the mirage storm, and the wind inside almost swept me in, but for some reason, it suddenly disappeared, and I was lucky enough to get my life back. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be one of the sand. ā
Xiao Dong was naturally a lie, and before he returned, he deliberately disguised himself, his clothes were tattered, dusty, and covered with mud and stains, as if he had suffered a loss. As for what happened in the mirage storm, of course he wouldn't tell Chang Dexing about them.
On the one hand, he is not familiar with Chang Dexing, although he is not bad on the surface, but Xiao Dong is always on guard in his heart. On the other hand, they are just ordinary people, and when he tells them things, they may not be able to understand them. Rather than that, it's better to say nothing.
"I see. Chang Dexing nodded and asked again, "Is there really nothing to discover?"
"Nope. Xiao Dong pretended to be confused and shook his head, and suddenly said, "By the way, when I got closer, I saw many people in special costumes inside, they were laughing and scolding, in a paradise, and most of them were women. I've never seen people dressed like this, old man, you say, could they be from the ancient kingdom of Loulan?"
The reason why Xiao Dong said this was completely to confirm the affairs of the ancient kingdom of Loulan to Chang Dexing.
Chang Dexing took a deep breath, glared at him, and said, "Really, are the clothes they are wearing embroidered with patterns, and they are all dark purple?"
"That's right, that's it. Xiao Dong said in surprise, "Old man, how do you know?"
"I've been studying for decades, how could I not know?" Chang Dexing's expression became a little excited, and he said, "It seems that what I guessed before is indeed not wrong, the desert mirage is indeed related to the ancient country of Loulan." Brother Xiao Dong, those people you see are the people of the ancient kingdom of Loulan!"
"Doesn't that mean that the ancient kingdom of Loulan exists in this desert?!" Xiao Dong was also surprised.
"That's for sure!" Chang Dexing nodded and said, "It's just that what the desert mirage reflects has no time limit. In other words, what we see may have happened recently, but it is also possible that it was decades, or even centuries ago. Generally speaking, however, what the mirage presents is recent. So, this is even more proof of one of my research, that is, the ancient kingdom of Loulan did not really die, they not only existed, but also survived!"
Speaking of this, Chang Dexing couldn't help but get excited: "As long as we find the entrance, we will definitely be able to enter the ancient country of Loulan." ā
Xiao Dong was also excited, this point did not need Chang Dexing's research to prove, he had really seen it just now. If Lan Yi and Gao Xuan have a relationship with the ancient country of Loulan, it will also prove that the ancient country of Loulan is still alive.
It's just that Xiao Dong can't figure it out, when did his wife get involved with the ancient kingdom of Loulan?
The top priority is to find the ancient country of Loulan as soon as possible, so that he can not only find Rehmannia Essence, but also find his wife!
"Sir, however, the great desert is vast and immense, and it may not be so easy for us to find the ancient country. Xiao Dong asked.
"Hahahaha, you don't know this, I have my own way. For the ancient country of Loulan, I have decades of research, and my hard work is not in vain, and everything about them has long been clear to me. As long as I find them, I will be able to ....... When Chang Dexing spoke, his eyes were hot, and even revealed a hint of madness and a hint of hideousness, as if he had become fanatical about one thing to the point of perversion.
Xiao Dong's heart swelled with a strange feeling, he always felt that this Chang Dexing professor was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
