Chapter 355: Through the Millennium (Part I)

When Dick woke up, he found himself lying in the big house, covered with animal skins, and the fire in the fireplace was still beating, Dick felt sweaty and thirsty, and when he raised his eyes to see the clay pot on the low table, he didn't care so much about grabbing the clay pot, and poured a few big mouthfuls, and after his throat was moistened, he finally settled down.

Dick vaguely remembered that last night he had taken off the gold watch and handed it to the high priest, and after drinking a sip of raspberry wine mixed with black suspended matter, he fell asleep, and he pushed Mr. Min and Chen Badai, and they woke up in a drowsy state.

Last night, it was General Gurg's escort who sent them back, Dick's driver and others didn't know what to do, the guards just told them not to worry, left some food and raspberry wine and left, seeing that Dick and the others were panting evenly, and there was no danger to their lives, everyone didn't dig deeper.

Chen Badai didn't sleep well all night, after drinking that glass of raspberry wine, Chen Badai felt a headache, the high priest's song seemed to have magic, and the murmur in Chen Badai's head resonated, even if he fell asleep, his brain did not stop, when Chen Badai was woken up, he knocked on his drowsy head, and could only vaguely remember dreaming of a group of soldiers in black armor, and one chaotic war after another, but Chen Badai couldn't remember what happened in the dream.

The thirsty Chen Badai poured a glass of raspberry wine from the clay pot and drank it all, feeling a little hungry in his stomach, and symbolically exchanged a few words with Mr. Min, focusing on the food on the low table.

"Uh......h Woo ......" There was a sound of horns outside the house, and the habits of 1,000 years ago were still maintained here, using horns and drums to convey information, and Chen Badai had almost eaten and walked to the door to see what was going on.

I don't know when hundreds of people gathered in the open space in front of the door! This made Chen Badai a little surprised, in the past two days, he and Mr. Min basically figured out the situation of this fortress, their personnel mainly gathered near the castle, Chen Badai, who had a good eye, found that in addition to General Gurg, there were only twenty or thirty people, Chen Badai had also laughed at them in his heart, they had withered to this point, why bother waiting?

Of course, whether it is Chen Badai, Dick, or even Mr. Min, it is impossible to feel the hearts of these guardians, for their own duties, they guard here, and the years ruthlessly destroy everything, in order to survive, most of the people in the fortress go out to make a living, but when the high priest calls, they will still return here without hesitation!

The people who returned from outside had not yet washed the dust off their faces, they gathered in the open space, silent and neat, Chen Badai looked at this group of people gathered from nowhere in surprise, no one gave orders, only a commander in front of the team commanded with gestures, they were no less than any excellent army!

After the captain was assembled, he returned to the team, and everyone stood upright, waiting for the next order.

"Are all the people here dumb?" Dick saw this too, and it was no wonder that there was no life here, and the people here didn't know if they were cursed or not, so they didn't say a word.

Black mountains, black castles, black dilapidated buildings, black trees, black grass...... Here Dick could see a hint of other variegated colors and felt a little gratified, and in the oppressive black, there was this group of silent people...... Dick felt that these people were simply unreasonable, how did they survive in such a silent and oppressive place for dozens of generations?!

"They're going to put the last ounce of strength into battle against the army of the undead...... Mr. Min explained.

β€œHATοΌŸοΌβ€ This is a novel explanation, but doesn't Dick think he can't hold a sword if he says more?

"If they've seen 21st century technology, wouldn't they feel like they're a joke in the world?" Chen Badai said with a smile.

"This is faith, Chen Badai, you don't understand, Dick, you won't understand either." Mr. Min said slowly.

Dick shrugged his shoulders in disdain for Mr. Min's words, faith? Well, he also has faith, and his faith is money, and without it, Dick can't imagine how he would live......

This is also the secret that Dick can't understand Mr. Min's pursuit of Loulan's treasure for more than 20 years, in his opinion, this is Mr. Min's obsession, and once he sees the treasure, Mr. Min will be bored, as a veteran in the antique industry, Dick has seen too many people like this, how many collectors have begged for a rare treasure, but when the treasure entered the collection, he never looked at it again in his life......

This is what Dick calls the childhood craving for toys, and Dick firmly believes that the shadow of a person's childhood will stay with him for the rest of his life, but there is nothing wrong with him, otherwise the antiques that are behind the times would have gone to the garbage heap long ago!

Perhaps Mr. Min had other reasons, and Dick knew about it, but he didn't want to say it.

Dick looked at the date, Christopher's mercenaries should be on the way, although Christopher is his big savior, but at the same time he is also a big MA annoyance, but Dick believes that after solving the trouble of Tchaikov, any trouble is not a trouble, he thought about it, there is a backup plan in the East, and they should also be in a step-by-step manner at this time......

It seemed that he would not get anything if he did not cooperate with Tchaikov now, and Dick felt a little irritated, and he had to make a small change to his original plan.

General Gorg rode the old horse and slowly paced to the front of the big house, Mr. Min politely bowed his body to show his respect, and General Gorg also returned the owe on the horse, and said slowly: "We will repair the bridge for you, and you will come together." ”

Without waiting for Mr. Min and the others to answer, General Gorg waved his hand at the crowd, and the silent crowd turned around and marched towards the Great Black Wall with neat steps......

"I'm just here to explore, GOD! Do you still want to be a coolie? Dick said with some exaggeration.

General Gurg glanced at him on his horse, and Dick quickly shut up in amusement, feeling the majesty in the eyes of the man on the old horse.

No one can disobey orders, at least here! Chen Badai understood the meaning in General Gurge's gaze!

"Aha! Dick Kid, you're finally here to help Grandpa Pandey with coolies! When Dick appeared by the Black River with an axe in his hand, he was a little dazed when he saw the busy and silent crowd by the Black River, and suddenly Pandey's voice exploded in his ears.

Dick frowned in disgust, if there was no one else here, Dick believed that he would have slashed his head with an axe, this old dog of Tchaikov would give himself a bad chance at the first opportunity!

"Dick, say hello to Dick!" Grandpa Pandey smiled heartily.

Dick quickly tilted his head and covered his face with his hand, and as expected, the old horse snorted again, and saliva squirted onto Dick's hand.

Pandy untied the log dragged behind the old horse, and shoved the reins into Dick's hand: "Dick boy, Dick has handed it over to you, go 1 kilometer over there, and you can see the logger...... I warn you, be kind to Dick, and I'm ready to let it give me a pension! ”

Dick listened to this very unpleasantly, but he took the reins stupidly, and old man Pandey took the log and joined the crowd of people who were building the bridge, and Dick stood stunned for a while, and the old horse turned and walked towards the lumberyard, and Dick had to go with the old horse.

General Gorg did not participate in the repair of the bridge, which may have been his prerogative as the military governor of this fortress, the bridge has been damaged for hundreds of years, and the last time it was built was when the survivors of the Poseidon sent the scepter back to the peak of the dead, those silent crowds, although no one commanded, were very tacitly busy, with the help of manpower, the efficiency was obviously much faster, and Tchaikov expected that the bridge would be repaired in three days at most.

Tchaikov has a very good mentality, the people here don't want to explain and he doesn't bother to entangle, Loulan has long been sealed in the long river of history, modern technology has explained many things that could not be explained clearly, but after all, he has Loulan's blood in his veins, and it is also his duty to seek Loulan's secret, although it is not a bad thing for him that the ghost scepter never appears, but Tchaikov thinks he should do something.

The little devil in Tchaikov's heart jumped out from time to time and told him that Dick couldn't get the scepter, and that he had to show him a little color......

also circulates Loulan's bloodline, Dick is an out-and-out scum! Tchaikov would rather have the Ghost Scepter in the hands of anyone in the world than in the hands of Dick!

Tchaikov felt that the high priest understood the relationship, but the high priest did not say anything about it, when the high priest summoned, there were several times, Tchaikov wanted to ask his own questions, but he did not speak, maybe the high priest had his own arrangements, he let himself and Dick go together to seek the ghost scepter, is it to resolve the grudge between the two families for hundreds of years?

Of course, this is all speculation, and no one knows where the Ghost Scepter is, but the first step must be taken, and they must first cross this roaring black river!

……

Doss rode on horseback, raised his GPS, and squinted in the direction of the sun, trying to determine his bearing, but as he had done the previous times, he gave up in discouragement, and he pulled out his compass again to confirm that he was indeed heading east, but he didn't know where he was.

"Hey, how far are we?" Doss shouted at the "primitive" in animal skins on the leading horse in front of him.
