Bai Yang and the others imagined what Ma Daocheng and the others had encountered.

Poplar first thought that he had seen a huge blood wolf pounce on him in the tomb, but it turned out that it was not a blood wolf at all, but an iron bull killing him.

So Poplar blurted out, "I guess you still have illusions, and what you see is not some demons and monsters, but your own companions!"

Ma Daocheng and Ma Daoxian suddenly raised their heads and looked at Bai Yang in great surprise.

Ma Daocheng stammered and said, "Comrade Bai...... How do ......you know? You are still so young, it is impossible to be with the Dingen people at that time, so you heard the Dingen people mention this?"

"No, Uncle Ding didn't even mention it to Lingling, so naturally it's impossible to mention it to me!" Bai Yang told me the truth, "I was bitten by a bone-eating firefly in a big tomb before, and as a result, I had an illusion and almost killed one of my brothers as a monster!"

Ma Daocheng looked at him stunned, and asked again for a long time: "Bone eater fireflies......?" Is there really a bone-eating firefly?"

"Definitely!" Poplar nodded.

Ma Bingxiao looked at the poplar and then at his father, and said, "Dad, you tell your story, what happened later......?" I haven't seen Uncle Ding show up?"

Ma Daocheng shook his head with a wry smile and said, "What happened later, I didn't want to say it when I died, but ...... It's uncomfortable to hold this in my heart, and if I don't say it, I can't explain why your uncle and I are so grateful to the Dingen people!"

When Ma Daocheng said this, his eyes turned red, and he had to pick up his wine glass and take another sip, but he didn't want to choke all at once, so he turned his face and coughed repeatedly.

Ma Bingxiao hurriedly stood up and helped his father beat his back.

Ma Daoxian, who was sitting on the other side of Ma Daocheng, took the water cup and handed it to Ma Daocheng, saying, "Brother, you drink saliva and take a breath, let me talk about it!"

Ma Daocheng nodded, and Ma Daoxian said: "At that time, my brother and I didn't know each other anymore, and we both thought each other was a demon and a monster!" Fortunately, ...... I was timid at the time, and that was a big flaw that I was ashamed of, but at the time, it saved my life!"

He took a breath when he said this, Ma Bingxiao moved his lips to ask, but endured it again, waiting for him to continue to tell.

"I saw so many strange-shaped demons and monsters, and I was so frightened that I shouted big brother, but the eldest brother didn't find it, but he was ...... The demon slashed at it. I didn't dare to fight with demons and monsters, so I just lay on the ground and pretended to be dead. I saw those demons and monsters biting each other, and I scratched you, until finally, only one of the demons and monsters was still yelling. He was calling my name, but ...... Listening to my ears, it felt like he was going to call me out and eat me. So I mustered up the courage to jump up and fight that demon to the death. Thankfully, God, the Dinn came out of nowhere and separated me from the demon. I was so injured that I fainted all of a sudden, and when I woke up, the Dinn was feeding me water, and the wounds on my body were well bandaged by the Tinn!"

Ma Daoxian's eyes also turned red, and he took a sip of the water glass.

"That'...... What about my dad, how is my dad?" Ma Bingxiao asked again.

"I was hurt worse than your uncle at the time, so I woke up later than your uncle!" Ma Daocheng replied, "Over the years, the reason why your uncle and I have always remembered the kindness of Ding Enren is not only because he saved my and your uncle's lives, but also because he was one step late, and your uncle and I died at each other's hands!"

Ma Daocheng couldn't help but shed tears, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wiped it lightly.

Bai Yang couldn't help but think that he and Tie Niu were killing each other at that time, fortunately he was sober in time, otherwise Tie Niu would have killed him, if he killed Tie Niu, and then came to his senses, he would definitely regret that he was killed headlong.

Before, he had always wondered why Ma Daocheng and Ma Daoxian would be grateful to Ding Sicheng to such an extent, but now he felt that if it was him, he would also remember this kindness and never dare to forget it.

"My eldest brother's martial arts are higher than those of several elders, so he and several elders killed each other, only he persevered to the end, he kept calling my name, and as a result, I got up and fought with him!" Ma Daoxian also burst into tears, and while taking out a handkerchief to wipe his tears, he finished speaking, "There was another elder at that time...... It's your Grandpa Chen, he was slightly injured and was also rescued by the Dingens, but the others, all dead, are all ...... Kill each other to death!"

His words of "your Grandpa Chen" were naturally said to Ma Bingxiao.

Ding Lingling still had doubts in her heart, and when Ma Daocheng and Ma Daoxian calmed down, she asked again: "Why did my father go? Did he see what you said...... A living man in a tomb?"

"He didn't see it!" Ma Daocheng shook his head, "The Dingen people were going with the archaeological team to find the legendary Black Desert...... Have you ever heard of the Black Desert?"

Ma Daocheng turned his mouth and asked, and the poplars and red apricots shook their heads together.

Ding Lingling said: "I've heard of it! Legend has it that in the Taklamakan Desert in southern Xinjiang, that is, northwest of Dunhuang, there is an extremely strange black desert. Legend has it that more than 1,000 years ago, there was abundant water and grass, but I don't know what happened to it, and it became a forbidden area for life. My dad told me that he had twice led a team into the Taklamakan Desert in an attempt to find the legendary Black Desert, but never found it. But...... He didn't mention to me that he had met two uncles!"

"Your father doesn't mention it to you, first, he is high-spirited, but he doesn't want to mention it. Second, I'm afraid it was because I killed several people at the time, although ...... That's not my intention, but how can I make this matter clear? Your father is actually helping me hide it!" Ma Daocheng said.

"Yes!" Ma Daoxian, "when I woke up, I saw that several elders were all dead, and obviously all of them were hacked to death by swords, and I understood what had happened! Later, in front of their archaeological team, he didn't mention it at all. So...... How can we not be grateful to the Dingen people? To use the old saying, even if we brothers are cattle and horses for the rest of our lives, we will not be able to repay the Dingen people!"

Bai Yang could understand the mood of the two old brothers very well, but Ding Lingling was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly asked, "Then why didn't my father see the living person in the ancient tomb you said?"

"Strange is strange here!" Ma Daocheng replied, "There were eight of us at the time, and it was precisely in search of the legendary Celestial Elephant Kingdom in the Black Desert that we entered the Taklamakan Desert. We did find the Black Desert and the ruins of the ancient city of the Celestial Elephant Kingdom, but ...... I don't know why, but when we entered a large tomb, we saw that ...... After the Great Living, we were suddenly lost in a thick fog and killed each other in the fog until your father found us. But your dad didn't find us in the Black Desert, but in a yellow desert that we hadn't been to before, and we didn't know where it was, let alone how we got there!"

Once again, several people looked at each other silently.

Hongxing opened her mouth and said, "I heard...... There are large areas of quicksand in the Taklamakan Desert, will it be ...... Is it the quicksand that hides the black desert? Is the fog you seeing, could it be a sandstorm?"

"No way!" Ma Daoxian replied, "It seems that the red girl has never entered the desert! Not to mention that the black desert has a vast area and has not been buried by the yellow sand for more than a thousand years, how could it be that it was during the time when we went there that it was suddenly buried by the quicksand? Not to mention that if even the black desert was buried by the quicksand, how could a few of us survive? I am afraid that we would have been buried in the yellow sand a long time ago, and we would have become an unknown dried corpse in the desert!"

Hongxing's face turned red and said, "It's me who is stupid to ask, I haven't been into the desert, and I can't imagine these strange situations in the desert!"

Ma Daoxian nodded and smiled, and said: "Don't say you can't imagine it, my brother and I have been pondering for more than ten years, and it is still difficult to explain why we went to a place that we were completely unfamiliar with at that time!"

"Could it be that...... The large living people in the ancient tomb have given you illusions, and you have walked far away before you know it, until you have reached a place where you can't see the black desert at all?" asked Poplar.

"I discussed this possibility with my brother, but ultimately dismissed it!" Mr. Ma said.
