Loulan, legend has it that it is located in the northern desert. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

But it's just a legend, and no one knows exactly where it is.

The north out of the Yumen Pass is to go in the direction of the Turks.

Yumen Pass is also known as Yangguan.

Many well-known poets have written poems about Yumen Pass.

At this time, the Yumen Pass gave Li Tianqi and the others the feeling that it was not at all like the Central Plains, and the surrounding environment seemed to be yellow and sandy, and it was unusually deserted.

The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, and a lonely city of Wanren Mountain is a portrayal of Yumen Pass.

Although the high walls of Yumen Pass are thick, but the city walls are all thick mud walls cast from loess, after the erosion of wind and rain, it has appeared a little old, and it can be seen from above that these city walls have been repaired, but the east and west are all traces of repair.

The guards guarding the checkpoint simply asked them about the purpose of their trip and let them out, but reminded them to be careful outside, as the Turkic cavalry would occasionally attack caravans or rob passers-by.

Li Tianqi and the others rode the tall desert boat, slowly moved forward, and passed through the Yumen Pass.

After leaving the Yumen Pass, the scenery several miles away is endless, all of which are hills, wind-eroded rocks, etc., which are very different from the Central Plains full of plants and trees.

Xu Shaoyu seems to have been prepared for the trip to Loulan, because there are many forks in the road after leaving Yumen Pass, and they are all sheep intestine paths, but Xu Shaoyu seems to know the direction and has been leading the way in front, and Eshang is walking next to him.

Li Tianqi had no direction for this trip, he didn't know where Lei Yan Toad's mother was going to take him to Loulan, so he could only rely on Xu Shaoyu to find Loulan.

It is the time of winter, and it is even colder to go out of the north. As far as the eye can see, the hills, only the sparse and bare trees appear in the distance, and they feel a little alive.

It seems to be very dry, the wind and sand are coming at any time, so that everyone has to cover their faces with scarves, and the sunlight at this moment is projected through the thin white clouds, which does not give people a dazzling feeling, but a kind of warmth.

The camels were not moving fast, but they were steady, and the bells jingled as they accompanied their somewhat sleepy journey. A Gobi desert is connected to the end of the grassland, and there is a small river under the depression, and the surface of the river is unusually calm, like a mirror reflecting the blue sky.

They had walked ten miles, and although they were not tired, Xu Shaoyu reminded everyone to rest here and let the camels drink enough water.

Needless to say, after this place, it is estimated that you will set foot in a dry desert area.

There are many traces of stove pits here, and it seems that many people will stop here when they pass by this place and make fires to make food.

When the packs were unloaded from the camels' backs, Ozan led the five camels along the river, which had a meadow and bushes to feed the camels.

After Xu Shaoyu greeted them, he walked to a high ground, it seemed that he wanted to confirm the direction of travel.

Li Tianqi and others folded some dry wood and rattan in the nearby bushes and used them to make a fire to roast and eat.

After a while, the fire gradually exploded.

The three of them glanced at each other, and Lin Yixian couldn't help laughing.

Li Tianqi asked, "Yixian, what are you laughing at?" ”

Lin Yat-sen said: "I'm laughing at us, we really have fate, after many years, now we are together again." ”

Lu Linlang said: "Yes." Although there have been a lot of changes, we are still together again, as if we have returned to the past. ”

Li Tianqi said: "Our words are getting better and better now. It's like a girl who grew up in the country. ”

Lu Linlang's face turned red.

Lin Yixian said: "Even so, she is still easy to be shy." ”

The three of you said a word, and after a while, the corn, baked cakes, and dried meat were cooked, and Li Tianqi called Xu Shaoyu and E Shang back for dinner.

Everyone also got to know each other along the way, but Xu Shaoyu became a little silent, and E Shang was still as big as before.

Li Tianqi noticed the changes in Xu Shaoyu, it seems that since he stepped into Saibei, he has often been thinking about something alone, and sometimes he seems to be not listening to questions.

After an hour, when the people had rested enough, and the camels had been fed and drunk, they set out for the Gobi.

At this time, it was already afternoon, the thin white clouds obscured the sun from time to time, the light on the ground flickered and dimmed, even the grass was gradually replaced by yellow sand, the trees became more and more sparse, and occasionally walked a mile to see one or two sparse willows.

Under the leadership of Xu Shaoyu, everyone walked into the real wilderness from the Saiwai path, and at this time there was no road, and it was not easy to judge the direction.

The sun was gradually setting in the west, gradually elongating the shadows of the people, and the terrain was gently undulating, the ground was covered with large gravel stones, and the dwarf weeds stubbornly grew out of the slightly damp stone crevices, but the taste of loneliness was accentuated.

"Huh? What is that? Eshang stretched out his hand and pointed to the front right, Xu Shaoyu looked in the direction he was pointing and found a huge pit.

"Let's go over and see." Xu Shaoyu said, then pulled the rope, and the camel went towards the huge pit.

E Shang turned around and made a gesture to Li Tianqi and the others a few feet later, and then followed Xu Shaoyu and went over there.

When Li Tianqi and the others came to the giant pit, Xu Shaoyu and E Shang had already come down from the camel and walked to the giant pit to check it.

The giant pit covers an area of two or three acres of land, in the shape of a cone, the deepest part is about fifty or sixty zhang high, although the ground inside is paved with thick sand, but it can still be seen that it is slightly wet.

A dark boulder peeked out of the sand.

Xu Shaoyu walked up from the pit and said to Li Tianqi and the others who were standing on the edge of the pit: "This is the Flying Stone." I never thought I could find such a big piece here. ”

Li Tianqi asked, "What is the Flying Stone?" ”

Xu Shaoyu pointed to the sky and said, "Heaven, Zhouyu." Maybe the Jade Emperor was dissatisfied with the Nether. There was a boulder in there, estimated to be one or two feet wide and high. But it's a rock of this size that has smashed this place like this. ”

Lin Yixian was speechless: "If such a small stone falls here, it will cause such a huge pit, if it falls in Chang'an City, won't it cause a big ****?" ”

Xu Shaoyu said: "Yes." ”

"Flying stones?" Li Tianqi remembered that he and Miaole and Ge Qiu had seen a fireball falling from the sky in that wood, "Isn't it like a fireball, dragging a ribbon of light falling from the sky?" ”

Xu Shaoyu nodded and said, "Yes." That's what happened to Loulan Guo back then......" paused, and then said: "I didn't expect to see such a stone here again." This pit looks very new. It should not be more than three months. ”

Eshang also walked up from below and said: "I have been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and it is the first time I have seen such a thing. The surface of the stone looked like it had been melted, and it was pitted. ”

"Really?" Li Tianqi couldn't help but move in his heart, and as he spoke, he also walked straight to the depths of the giant pit. Lin Yixian and Lu Linlang were also a little curious, so they also followed him.

Li Tianqi and the others came to the black stone exposed on the sand, squatted down and took a closer look, and sure enough, it was full of smooth surfaces, and there were many small holes on it.

Lin Yixian said: "I can't see that this stone is so powerful. She stood up, looked up, and muttered silently, "God forbid." ”

Xu Shaoyu shouted above at this time: "Let's go." We still have to keep going. ”

Everyone walked out of the giant pit one after another and rode on the camel again, and Xu Shaoyu and Eshang continued to lead the way in front.

After walking for more than an hour, more than ten miles away from the previous one, they found another one, but this one was obviously two or three years old, and only the edge was still visible, while the middle part had been filled with sand for many years, and it was overgrown with unkempt weeds.

If it weren't for this experience, everyone wouldn't know that there would be two huge pits in this Gobi area. Although everyone didn't know why such a stone fell from the sky in this area, it was obviously not a good thing, and although everyone didn't say it, they still felt some oppressive breath.

"Someone!" At this time, Xu Shaoyu found something in front of him, and he had already jumped off the camel and headed towards a wind-eroded rock.

Hearing this, the others also ran over.

Beneath the wind-eroded rock was a man dressed as a nun, who had a thin and pale face, and although he was badly wounded, he still had breath.

Her mouth was covered in blood, and her chest was stained red with blood, and the blood had turned black and red, and it seemed that she had been lying here for some time, and I don't know how she had survived.

On the ground around the nun lay a dozen rats, the size of chickens and ducks, which she apparently had killed in the attack.

Li Tianqi recognized this person, it was the Fan Master of the Xuanjing Gate, she was already dying, although she noticed the arrival of these people, but she couldn't open her eyes, but there was a trace of struggle on her face, it seemed that she mistook Li Tianqi and the others for the people who were chasing and killing her.

Xu Shaoyu half-squatted beside Fan, took her pulse to probe for a while, and said to Li Tianqi and the others: "The pulse is weak, and the breath is disordered. Severe internal injuries. ”

As he spoke, he pulled out a wound medicine.

Li Tianqi hurriedly took out the water bladder and walked to the side of Master Fan, took the medicine from Xu Shaoyu's hand and said, "Master Fan, it's me, Li Tianqi." ”

Everyone was taken aback, they didn't expect Li Tianqi to recognize this person.

Suddenly, Master Fan's whole body loosened, his head tilted, and his body couldn't help but fall to the side.

"Mrs. Shi!" Li Tianqi was startled and held Fan Shitai with both hands.
