Chapter 746: The Yellow Sand Wind Rises and the Ancient City Appears!
"This is what I should do, to do what I can for the country."
Su Chen said humbly, in his eyes, this is nothing to show off, it is better to make money than to scatter wealth, and to be able to save so many people from the sea of suffering, why not? Su Chen knew that his ability was limited, but Li Lao's ability was not the same, many of the things he could do were things he didn't dare to imagine, manpower was sometimes poor, and he still knew what he could do.
"You are too modest, but there is one thing that I am very curious about, and I hope you can explain it to me."
Li Lao said with a smile, Su Chen knew that this old man probably wanted to put forward some unreasonable thoughts, and it was unreasonable to ask, it was estimated that the fox's tail was about to leak out.
"If Elder Li has anything to say, just say it, I must know everything and say everything."
Su Chen's atmosphere was appreciated by Li Lao, and he immediately said:
"One thing I don't know is, how did you do it? Where did you get so many scientific research results, or rather, these are the results of your research? I still don't believe that. ”
"Old Li, there are some things that we still don't know how to fight, I have an old hen that lays eggs, and the eggs that lay are easy to sell and delicious, do you think I will sell the old hen to others?"
Li Lao smiled dumbly, what he said was right, these things are people's own secrets, but he is always confused, and he asks everything. Elder Li waved his hand to Su Chen to apologize.
Su Chen did not continue to discuss with Li Lao, many things, since Su Chen had already given a promise, he would fulfill it, and Li Lao did not keep Su Chen, the promise between men is only understood by themselves.
In the past ten days, Su Chen has focused all his attention on finding his parents, and there are no clues in the search around the world, Su Chen's heart has always been relieved, if his father is still the father of the year, then he may not be so worried, but his father is no longer strong, and he has no ability to protect himself at all, at this time, Su Chen is still standing at the top of the world, there are too many people who want to embarrass him, even countless, and Su Chen's enemies have never been many.
Su Chen searched hard, and finally on the afternoon of the fourth day, he waited for a letter, without signature, date or trace, only one line of words:
"If you want to be your parents, come to Lop Nur. Bring the energy hedron and bring your sincerity. ”
"Lop Nur!"
Su Chen clenched the letter in his hand tightly, crumpled it into a ball, his face was hideous and terrifying, no matter who it was, he had to go, whether it was Longtan Tiger's Den or Ah Nose Hell, the kindness of his parents was deeper than the sea, if he couldn't even protect his parents, Su Chen would never forgive himself in this life.
Su Chen's heart already had a spectrum, his suspicion was not wrong, it was likely that the people who kidnapped his parents were those strange people who suddenly appeared, the dark ones, or the people of the Dark Star Realm, or the people of the Loulan Ancient Kingdom. No matter who it was, Su Chen would not let them go. The power of the energy spar, Su Chen has not studied it thoroughly, but he knows that this energy spar is the biggest treasure in the entire Atlantis, of course, the skyscraper that shuttles through time and space has been abolished, so this energy spar has become a hot thing, Su Chen does not know the origin of those people, but he knows that they must be bad people. Now that Su Chen's strength has been completely recovered, in this battle, Su Chen is bound to let that group of guys know their strength.
The star slave who appeared in the Oriental Pearl that day was almost the same as his own strength, and it is estimated that the peak duel will be the end of the five-five opening. Since he knew that it was not impossible to break through the peak of the eight veins, Su Chen's confidence was even more full, and after seeing the ninth sword of the Flowing Star Falling Sword cast by the interstellar wanderer at the peak of the eight veins, Su Chen was even more full of longing, and when he broke through the peak of the eight veins, it was estimated that he was about to become an existence close to a god. The unity of the nine stars, the ten directions of heaven and earth, and the higher realm, Su Chen has not thought about it, but it is comparable to a super existence like the ancestor Shennong Xuanyuan, Su Chen is still not very confident, according to what Shennong Tianyi said, it is the existence of human living fossils that survived from the last civilization, comparable to the true gods, no one dares to underestimate them, they can reach the peak of the eight veins in the future generations, and it is estimated that it is already a very rare existence.
Su Chen was ready to set off and headed towards Lop Nur, he didn't ask anyone to follow, but walked alone to the place called the Sea of Death, which used to be the sea, but now it has become a sea of sand.
Lop Nur is located in the southeast of Xinjiang in China, because of the shape like a human ear, Lop Nur is known as the "ear of the earth", also known as the "sea of death", is a veritable sea of sand, the desert is lonely and the sun sets, is the most beautiful picture here. Before 330 A.D., there was a lot of lake water here, and the northwest of Loulan City was the throat of the world-renowned "Silk Road", and then due to various influences such as climate change and human water conservancy projects, the upstream water was reduced until it dried up, and now it is only a large salt crust, and the sand sea is all over.
When Su Chen came here, he was also shocked by the dryness here, this place is deserted all year round, the water source is poor, there is no creature here at all, even if it is known as the desert nemesis that is immortal for three thousand years, it is dead for three thousand years, and the poplar that has not rotted for three thousand years has also died one after another, it can be said that this is a forbidden area for human beings, but for Su Chen, it is not so terrible, but in the past two days, Su Chen has drunk quite a lot of water.
In Lop Nur, Su Chen traveled almost all the peripheral areas in one day, although he only passed by, but he was basically familiar with it, there were no people here at all, and the person who sent him a letter could not be groundless, it would definitely appear, but he didn't know where to wait for him.
It was getting late, the night was covering the land, and the moonlight was splashing on Lop Nur, a place known as the Ear of the Earth, which was incomparably beautiful to watch from the sky. At this time, Su Chen was in the White Dragon Pile Yadan, the surrounding mounds were generally ten or twenty meters, extending very long and curved, generally ranging from two hundred to five hundred meters long, and some were several thousand meters long, and from a distance, it seemed that white dragons were crouching in the desert, so it was called the White Dragon Pile. But at night, such spectacles are rarely seen.
At this time, it is the end of July, which is the worst time for the climate here, and there are countless saline-alkali soil platforms. In the hot climate, the environment is quite harsh, travelers or adventurers passing through this place, most of the general supplies have been used up, if there is a few days of strong winds and sandstorms, people will be trapped here, either starvation or thirst, so at this time of year, ordinary people will not enter this area, but Su Chen has no choice, he must come, there is his last hope.
"Woo-"
"Whew-"
Bursts of wind roared, and in the surrounding sky, there were even bursts of black wind, which was quite scary, and the terrifying wind was roaring, like a group of dead souls telling the unwillingness to die unjustly, this area was empty, Su Chen stood on top of the yellow sand and white dragon pile, looking at the surrounding wind, his heart was extremely clear. The wind and sand blew him couldn't open his eyes, everything around him was so eerie and terrifying, cowardly people would never dare to be here, and a radius of hundreds of miles was deserted, who else would be here except Su Chen?
With the sweep of yellow sand and wind, it seems that the howl is getting louder and louder, more and more like an ancient sorrow, Su Chen frowned, this wind is normal, but the terrifying and sad sound mixed with this wind is like the outpouring of the grievances of the undead, as if countless unjust souls have been suppressed The terrifying resentment that erupted here, Su Chen always felt that this place was like a mass grave, it was really weird. But these didn't frighten him, although the theory of ghosts and gods was under Shennong Tianyi's explanation, Su Chen also knew that there might really be gods in this world, but ghosts and gods were all one, and they were all symbols of strength, if there were really monstrous ghosts, he couldn't escape.
Since he came, Su Chen was fearless.
The piercing wind screamed for a long time, but gradually, it began to turn to the southeast, and the wind became stronger and stronger, Su Chen estimated that there was at least a wind of more than twelve levels, and the wind and sand were swept into the sky, and the surrounding area was thousands of meters, and there were constant shouts. Su Chen found a sheltered white dragon pile, sat down, ate something, and silently observed the movements around him, if there was nothing strange, he was going to sleep, and he would always come to the door, he only needed to wait here.
"Hoo-hoo-hoo-"
The wind became incomparably strong again, gradually, Su Chen looked at the tornado that was getting closer and closer in the sky, it was estimated that it had exceeded the fifteenth level, and almost all of the yellow sand was swept into the air, the wind and sand were raging, and in the dark night, countless piles of sand were completely blown away and blown down, and finally, Su Chen saw more than a dozen tornadoes sweeping away, blowing those yellow sand continuously around, piling up a wall dozens of meters high, shaped like an ellipse, although it was not regular, but it was indeed the yellow sand that fell into an ellipse.
With the wind and sand sweeping, Su Chen clearly saw that a beautiful ancient city appeared in front of him, yes, it is an ancient city, a thirty-meter-high building, it is already the highest, but the entire ancient city is quite elegant, pavilions, ancient town portals, everything, the city is gloomy, beating with dim firelight, the surrounding walls, just like the original ancient Great Wall, this ancient city looks like a long history, even older than some ancient cities in the pre-Qin period that Su Chen has seen.
The wind and sand blew out, and it would blow out such a beautiful ancient city, Su Chen believed that this was not a coincidence, nor was it an accident, it was really ingenious, in this ancient city, there was a faint firelight everywhere, although it was not obvious, but Su Chen felt that it was the breath of human traffic, Su Chen seemed to hear the laughter and laughter from afar, there was anger, joy, and the sound of a baby's night cry.
"It's incredible."
Su Chen muttered, it is magical, but so, but there are some things that no longer feel unusual, just like this legendary ancient city, which has a history of thousands of years, but it can still exist underground, Su Chen suspects that this wind and sand in the sky, I am afraid that at night, it will blow out, blow out an ancient city, and then in the daytime, it will be buried again. Conjecture is conjecture, what the result is, Su Chen really doesn't dare to speculate.
"Looks like this should be it. Is it the kingdom of the Dark? Or the ancient kingdom of Loulan? ”
The more Su Chen felt that all this had become confusing, and the more so, the more intense the desire in his heart became.
After the appearance of the ancient city, the hurricane also settled with the dust, all this, doesn't it mean anything?
"The blue sea and the sky hide the mountains, and the ancient city is thousands of miles away. The yellow sand wears gold armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will not be returned if it is not broken. ”
Su Chen said with a smile and walked towards the ancient city in one step.
"Good poetry, really good poetry, it's a pity, Brother Changling has already passed away, you are disrespectful to the sage by tampering with his verses."
A tall and thin figure walked out slowly, standing on top of a white dragon pile, his body seemed to look light, a gust of wind could blow it down, the man looked at Su Chen, smiled and said, it seems that he knows a lot about the ancient history of China.
"You gave me that letter."
Su Chen turned around and looked at the tall and thin man, staring intently.
"Sort of, there are some things that don't need to be liquidated so clearly."
The tall and thin man laughed.
"You guys are really haunted, tell me, who are you, why do you have to go against me."
"Because you're already involved in this war, there's no reason to leave, and I want to thank you very much for helping us get rid of those eyesore guys in Atlantis."
Hearing the tall and thin man's words, Su Chen's heart sank, could it be that Atlantis was their nemesis? They hadn't been there before, just because of Atlantis? Could it be that he did something that he didn't even know about to help this group of guys see the light of day again?
"I'm not even afraid of Atlantis, afraid of you weird guys?"
Su Chen said confidently.
"Don't say so much, their technology is indeed terrifying, but when it comes to real strength, they are too far behind us, it's just a defeated civilization that relies on scientific and technological civilization to occupy the pioneers of the era, what is there to be thankful about defeating them?"
The tall and thin man shook his head, not agreeing with Su Chen's words at all.
"So, you're more of a higher civilization, aren't you?"
Su Chen asked rhetorically.
"There are some things that you should not know, lowly human beings, you must be clear, you are just an inheritor of human history and civilization, do you really think that you can change the world pattern? Once we Darklings rule the world, you humans will fall into purgatory on earth, and at that time, the entire earth will become a true paradise for gods and demons, as it was millions of years ago. Hahaha. ”
The cold laughter of the tall and thin man echoed in Su Chen's ears, the origin of this guy is really mysterious, the dark one, what is the origin?
"If you want your parents, come with me."
After speaking, the tall and thin man rose with the wind like a gust of wind and ran towards the ancient city.
