Volume 2 Sand Sea Dragon's Lair Chapter 173 The Land of the Dead

A few people couldn't help but take a breath, and Chen Xiaopang couldn't help but mutter: "This is also amazing, right?"

"There's even more amazing!" "I saw with Lao Bai and I the light it emitted held up a large area of yellow sand, but unfortunately after I pulled the dragon horn, the yellow sand poured down, almost burying me and Lao Bai alive!"

"Although the hanging bead can be suspended in thin air, it ...... Its light has no force, and it is impossible to hold up the yellow sand! But since you have seen it with your own eyes, it is probably because the skeleton you have found, if not a dragon bone, is the skeleton of a very magical creature, plus there are high-ranking people...... It is very likely that the Ao Jian archmage used the skeleton of that magical creature and this bead to lay down an evil magic circle, which can hold up the yellow sand!"

Ding Lingling smiled when she said this, and said: "This is all what my father said, if you don't believe it, you can ask him!"

Ding Sicheng's thinking is meticulous and thoughtful, and several people present have a deep understanding.

"So, the Millennium Dragon Ball is just a legend, and it can't really exist?" Iron Bull was disappointed.

"I'm not sure if the dragon ball exists, but what is certain is that this bead must be an inorganic mineral body, not an organic creature!"

Chu Changjiang couldn't help but ask what was going on with the "Dragon Ball Dragonbone", and Ding Lingling said simply.

Chu Changjiang was stunned for a while, and then sighed: "There are no wonders in the land of China, it seems that I funded you to set up this tomb search team, which is the most correct thing to do!"

Although Ding Lingling is not the leader of the grave search team, she is the daughter of the big leader Ding Sicheng, and she is busy expressing her gratitude to Chu Changjiang on behalf of her father.

Tie Niu had been holding back a question, and since Ding Lingling had already spoken in front of Chu Changjiang, Tie Niu couldn't help but ask, "What about the dragon horn we brought back......?" That's inorganic too, right?"

"That's indeed an organism!" Ding Lingling smiled, "So even if that horn can't be proven to be a dragon horn, it must be the horn of some kind of ancient creature that has become extinct!"

"That's good!" Tie Niu smiled, "I just wonder if this bead is not a thousand-year dragon ball, who would be willing to take it out to set up such a useless magic circle? Even if this bead is not a thousand-year dragon ball, it will be an extremely rare treasure, right? Why don't they just bury the dragon bone and dedicate this bead to the emperor?"

As soon as he said this, everyone felt justified.

Bai Yang had an idea in his heart, but unfortunately before he could sort it out, Ding Lingling sighed: "The thinking of the ancients is difficult for us modern people to understand! Moreover, the ancients worshipped dragons as gods, and since they believed that the skeleton you saw was a golden dragon, they must use the most precious and magical treasure to accompany the burial, and the hanging bead was the most magical treasure at that time!"

Such an explanation barely makes sense, so Poplar didn't think much about it, just raised his head to look at the sky, and said, "We don't know where we are now, and we don't know if the Golden Pupil Condor can find us!"

When several people heard him say this, they all looked up at the sky.

Tie Niu endured it for a while, but still said: "Lao Bai, I seem to have heard the scream of the Golden Pupil Divine Eagle, will it ...... That abominable Ao Jian archmage has already caught the Golden Pupil Condor?"

In fact, Bai Yang also heard the scream of the Golden Pupil Divine Eagle, and when he heard Tie Niu say this, he couldn't help but feel even more worried.

Chu Changjiang said: "Fortunately, we all have backpacks on our backs, no matter whether the Golden Pupil Condor can find us or not, let's save ourselves first!"

"That's good!" Chen Xiaopang immediately answered, "We can't wait for the Golden Pupil Condor, why don't we climb up to the sand mountain in front of us and take a look!"

Several people had no opinion, Tie Niu first pulled the red apricot to climb the sand mountain, and the others followed.

Finally climbed the sand mountain, except for the iron ox and the poplar, everyone else was tired and out of breath.

Poplar looked around, and there was a vast yellow sand in front of him, and there was no experienced guide who could recognize the way, let alone get out of the desert, even if he wanted to find an oasis to replenish his drinking water, it was even more difficult.

"Lingling and Little Fat Brother have been in the desert......, right? See which direction we should go?" asked Poplar.

"We've been into the desert, but we've only been into that once, and that time we didn't go too deep at all, and it only took two days to get in and out, so ...... I'm afraid we can't do anything about it!" Ding Lingling said.

As she spoke, she tried to stand up, but Poplar hurriedly reached out and pulled her.

Ding Lingling looked into the distance from all sides, and couldn't help frowning, and asked Chen Xiaopang, who was still sitting on the ground, with a low face: "Brother Chubby, what do you say?"

"I'm not the team leader, how do I know what to do? Didn't you just say that the two of us went into the desert once, how can we have any experience at all?" Chen Xiaopang said, almost looking weak.

Bai Yang knew that Chen Xiaopang didn't mean to squeeze himself, he just had nothing to do.

"Those two jade hummingbirds are still hidden in Sister Lingling's arms, right?" Hongxing suddenly remembered.

Ding Lingling immediately understood what Hongxing meant, so she smiled bitterly and said: "Fortunately, Xiaolu Xiaocui got into my arms at the first time it happened, otherwise I wouldn't know how to worry about them at this time!"

As she spoke, she took out the two frightened jade hummingbirds from her arms and refused to come out, and said, "But the little green and green are too small, they can't fly high, and they can't fly far, so it's impossible to take us to find the oasis and get out of the desert like the Golden Pupil Eagle!"

Several people fell back into a depressed mood.

As the leader of the group, Poplar could only try to find a way, and said: "Otherwise, Tie Niu and I have better physical strength, and the two of us will walk on both sides for a while to see if we can find an oasis or something, and you can just wait for us in the same place." ”

Tie Niu nodded first and said, "Then I'll go west, Lao Bai, you go east!"

Chen Xiaopang said: "There are many quicksand pits in the Taklamakan Desert, you walk around alone and casually, in case you fall into the quicksand pit, there is no one to reach out to rescue! No matter how great your ability is, once you fall into the quicksand pit, it is impossible to save yourself, but the more you struggle, the faster you will sink down!"

"Then what should we do? Can't we just sit here and wait for the Golden Pupil Condor to come to the rescue, right?" said Iron Bull.

"I think let's go together!" Chen Xiaopang stood up and patted the sand on his buttocks with his hand, "Although we are inexperienced, at least when we encounter a quicksand pit, we can also use a rope to drag it up, maybe we can drag people up!"

He wasn't sure.

In fact, Poplar has also heard of the horror of quicksand pits, and it is said that once you fall into a quicksand pit, even if someone pulls up hard by your side, the huge force of the sinking will slowly drag you down.

Therefore, Poplar could only dispel the idea of exploring the road separately from the iron bull, and stood on the sand mountain and looked left and right, trying to find some clues about where to go.

Hongxing suddenly stretched out her hand and shouted, "Look, eagle!"

Bai Yang and the others immediately looked up, and sure enough, there were a few black spots in the sky, flying down behind another sand mountain not far away.

"That's the Desert Black Eagle! The number of Desert Black Eagles is very small, and if you move in groups like this, you must have found something to eat, let's go and see!"

He was listless, but now he came to the spirit, and took the lead in spreading his steps and walking in that direction.

Poplar hurriedly beckoned the others to follow closely.

It took more than ten minutes to climb the other sand mountain, and when I looked at the bottom of the sand mountain, I suddenly saw a few black shadows lying on the sand slope below, and several desert black eagles seemed to be pecking with their heads down.

"It looks like a few dead people, the desert black eagle is eating their corpses, let's go down and take a look!"

Chen Xiaopang said as he walked a few steps down, and it was too laborious to take a deep foot and a shallow foot.

In addition, the top of Nasha Mountain is very steep, Chen Xiaopang simply sat on the sand and slid directly down the sand mountain.

Bai Yang said to Ding Lingling and Hongxing: "If you two girls and Boss Chu are waiting above, let's go down and have a look first, if it's just a few ordinary dead corpses, you don't want to go down!"

Ding Lingling and Hongxing are indeed tired, and Chu Changjiang is over fifty years old, so his energy is definitely not as good as that of their young people.

So Ding Lingling nodded and said, "Then after you go down, if there is any special situation, just wave and shout below, and we will go down!"

Poplar hurriedly nodded.

When Hongxing saw Ding Lingling say this, she didn't say anything else, but said, "Be careful!"

Tie Niu raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said, "You guys take a look at it, maybe the Golden Pupil Condor will fly over!"

"How can it be so fast!" he glanced at him.

Tie Niu smiled, walked a few steps down with Bai Yang, and then followed Chen Xiaopang's appearance, sat on the sand and slid down.

After falling to the place where the slope was gentle, the two people stood up, and they were not far from the black shadows.

It seems that it is indeed a few dead corpses, Chen Xiaopang has already walked up to him at this time, and is raising his hand to drive away those unwilling desert black eagles.

Seeing that two more people came, several desert black eagles finally vibrated their wings and flew into the sky.

But he refused to fly away immediately, but hovered and flew high in the air.

Poplar Iron Bull looked closely at the figures and found that there were a total of six men.

There were also weapons such as swords scattered on the ground, and the weapons were covered in blood.

The bodies of the six people were covered with wounds, large and small, and it was obvious that they fought each other and died.

The scorching sun and arid climate of the desert had dried up their skin and blackened their wounds, but it was clear that they had not been dead for a long time.

There was an extremely unpleasant smell in the air, but Chen Xiaopang still squatted down to check it, and said, "The time of death should not be more than three hours, it seems that these people should be the group that entered the tomb before us!"
