Chapter 053 Desert Palace

Something that everyone didn't expect?

Looking at the frightened look on the old man's face, Ye Qing couldn't help but be a little curious: Could it be that something big happened back then, so that after many years, it still makes people feel so palpitating?

Listening to Xu Lao continue to narrate, she suddenly came over.

It turned out that when their archaeological team was preparing to carry out the exploration work, they were attacked by the "desert killer" sandstorm, and what is even more tragic is that in the raging yellow sand, the ancient city actually sank quickly to the ground, and when someone came to consciousness, all communication signals were instantly cut off.

"Grandpa Xu, are you sure that the ancient city sank automatically, not covered with yellow sand?"

Ye Qing frowned slightly, and seemed to feel a little incredible.

Elder Xu didn't mind her suspicions, and nodded solemnly: "Sure, one hundred percent sure!" Because at that time, the old man was standing under the stele, and I clearly remembered what was written on the first line of the stele, but when I looked at it after the wind and sand, the content on the stele had changed. Not only that, but even the surrounding environment has changed, becoming less like an ancient city and more like a ...... Underground Palace. ”

The dungeon? Is it artificial?

Ye Qing couldn't help but guess.

"The dungeon is full of twists and turns, and there are many traps, from time to time there are bamboo arrows full of venom shot out of the dark passage, and in some places, there are even snakes or scorpions. Grandpa Xu was trapped inside, and I don't know how many hours have passed, going around and around, and never finding a way out, until one day when the food and water are finally exhausted, and he no longer has the strength to go forward, so he fell headlong on the wall. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Lao suddenly stopped again.

He leaned against the head of the bed, squinting slightly, as if trying to remember something.

Ye Qing didn't make a sound to disturb him, just sat quietly on the side, and the slightly frowning brows at first had already stretched out again.

There was no one to speak in the ward for a while, and the atmosphere was unusually quiet, only the sunlight outside the window spilled into the room through the orchid branches and leaves, and the light and shadow were reflected on the sheets, and with the occasional gust of wind, it would be lazily shaken a few times.

"Forget it, the past is unbearable, not to mention that I also promised that person that as long as he survives for a day, he will never mention what happened in the underground palace to outsiders."

After a long period of silence, Xu Lao sighed a long sigh, I don't know if he was sighing or regretting?

Ye Qing only asked the last question: "That person should be the mysterious one-armed man." ”

Not an interrogative sentence, but an affirmative sentence.

Xu Lao didn't deny it, and nodded: "That's right, it's him!" ”

As soon as the words came out, he suddenly paused again, turned his head and asked curiously: "Why, girl, isn't that one-armed man a master who teaches you to read?" ”

Ye Qing also nodded, originally, the so-called master was made up by her casually, but at this moment, she was very interested in the one-armed man in Xu Lao's mouth, and she also had a little yearning for the magical dungeon in the desert.

It was a strange feeling, as if something was calling her.

When Xu Lao saw her respond, there was a trace of regret on his face, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Alas, then to put it this way, he still went back." ”

Where to go back, desert? The dungeon? Or the world behind the dark walls?

Xu Lao didn't say, and she didn't ask.

After a while, Ye Qing got up first, picked up the medicine bowl on the bedside table, handed it over, and said, "It's useless to think too much, Grandpa Xu, the medicinal soup is almost cold, why don't you drink it while it's hot first." ”

"That's right." Xu Lao stretched out his hand and took the medicine bowl, and said with emotion: "Ji Ren has his own heavenly appearance, since he can take me out of the underground palace out of thin air, presumably, there is also a way to protect himself." ”

After speaking, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, raised his head, and drank the medicinal soup in a big gulp.

didn't notice that the girl standing next to him seemed to be slightly stunned when she heard the two important words "out of thin air" and "flying out".

Wind Resistant? Could it be the Wind Resistance?

Ye Qing couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, and suddenly became a little vigilant.

The appearance of the black-clothed man who could pierce through the wall last time had already begun to make her realize that there were probably other cultivators hiding in the bustling city. Now, hearing Xu Lao mention this mysterious one-armed man, Ye Qing suddenly realized that she still underestimated the real world after all.

In a reverie, the sky outside suddenly darkened, the wind accelerated, and there was a faint flash of electricity in the clouds.

Looks like it's going to rain.

Without waiting for Xu Lao to speak, Ye Qing had already come back to her senses, she quickly walked outside the balcony, moved the pots of orchids into the house one by one, and closed the doors and windows everywhere.

"Girl, your action is not slow, but it looks like you are going to work in vain, the weather forecast last night said that the weather today will be sunny and cloudy at most."

Ye Qing was noncommittal and replied: "The weather forecast is also biased. ”

Before the words fell, there were suddenly a few crisp sounds from the algae-green glass window.

The first rain in April came unstoppably, and the whole world seemed to be quiet in an instant, and Xu Lao leaned on the soft pillow and looked at Ye Qing's back, and suddenly became a little unpredictable.

The time to talk to Xu Lao always flies, and before you know it, it's seven o'clock in the evening.

When Ye Qing walked back to the nursing department and was about to clock out of work, she saw Wang Mingye walking around the corridor with an anxious face, looking like this, as if she was waiting for someone.

She blinked her eyes and walked straight in the direction of the duty room, and before she could get to her, Wang Mingye had already heard the voice, quickly raised her head, and looked at her.

"Qing'er, nothing happened to you, did you?" As soon as he saw Ye Qing, Wang Mingye immediately stepped forward and asked.

What happened? What can happen?

Ye Qing had a question mark on her face, obviously not understanding the meaning of his words.

Wang Mingye explained: "This morning, I happened to have an operation that required surgery, and it wasn't until lunch that I knew that you were temporarily transferred to the seventh floor of the inpatient building. Otherwise, I'll apply to the dean tomorrow and transfer you directly to my department, and I can take care of you if there's anything." ”

After Ye Qing heard this, her mind suddenly came to the dark: "Brother Night, you are too worried, Grandpa Xu is currently very good to me, and I am also very satisfied with this job." ”

He didn't seem to believe it, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, if you are wronged, you can just tell Brother Ye that any difficulties can be handled by me." ”

Ye Qing shook her head: "It's really okay, Brother Night." ”

"Really?" Wang Mingye glanced at her as if he was elegant, but finally failed to find any flaws, so he compromised and said: "Well, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you must remember to tell me first." ”

"Okay." Ye Qing looked at his concerned eyes and had to nod in response.

Wang Mingye was relieved at this time, slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, and invited: "Okay, let's go, I heard that a new Western restaurant has opened near Jingbei Park, and it tastes pretty good, so it's better to go over and try it tonight." ”

――*――*――

Sweat died, eight o'clock ready to upload, but there was a problem with the broadband, called to consult, the staff said that they would send someone to come over tomorrow to see. The cat was helpless, so I had to go outside and buy a Tianyi card, but it was still so late, sorry, sorry.

In addition, I would like to thank the tip of "Everything Like a Dream 1", as well as the PK ticket support of "The Goblin Who Loves the Mortal Dust". As for the collection of more than 3000, the cat was put on February 1 to make up, and it will not be forgotten.
