Chapter 799: Finding the County Map
The six of them sat shoulder to shoulder in a circle, digging frantically with both hands, and soon dug Beimao out of the sand.
Bei Mao sat on the sand, and his upper body was supported by Ye Cheng in his arms. His face was a little pale and he looked weak.
Seeing such Beimao, Ye Cheng was very worried and asked, "Brother Beimao, are you okay?" ”
Beimao replied weakly, "It's okay, it's just that I've been holding my breath in the sand for too long." Don't worry, I won't be able to die for a while, so let's find an elixir first."
Everyone is worried about Beimao, and Bai Yingping should be the most worried one. He stepped forward and came to Ye Cheng, looked down at Bei Mao, and said with a blushing face, "What the hell is going on?" Why is there a river beneath the desert? ”
He wasn't angry at Ye Cheng for letting Bei Mao get into the sand, but he was just worried about Bei Mao, and now he was relieved to see that Bei Mao was fine.
Hearing Bai Yingping's question, Ye Cheng knew that it was time to explain. He slowly handed Bei Mao to Zhu Zixing on the side, then stood up and said with a serious face: "I think the 'moving dunes' refers to the river below the town. I didn't know there would be a river down there, but it was strange to find so many wells in town. How could an arid desert city have so many wells? Unless water resources are abundant.
I let Brother Beimao burrow into the sand to confirm this, and now it seems that my idea is not wrong."
After speaking, Ye Cheng turned to look at the town that had become ruins, and continued with a solemn face: "The reason why this town moves with the sandstorm should have something to do with the river. The town must have been built on a boat-like ship, floating on the river, and as soon as the winds of the sandstorm came, the town would naturally move with the river under the thrust of the wind."
After Ye Cheng finished explaining, everyone calmed down and thought.
At this time, Bei Mao, who was skeptical, looked up at Ye Cheng's back and asked, "Although we have cracked the secret of the 'Moving Dune' and the movement of the town, does this help us in our search for the elixir?" ”
Ye Cheng slowly turned around and looked down at Bei Mao, his face ugly. He really didn't think about this question about Beimao.
Although the moving dunes refer to the river channel below the desert, where does the river flow? How many such rivers are there?
These Ye Cheng are not clear.
If you can figure out the direction of the river, you should be able to find the place where the elixir is hidden, so you can avoid looking for the capital.
"But how do you figure out where this river is going?" Ye Chengzou lowered his eyebrows, and said secretly in his heart with a solemn face.
Just when Ye Cheng was in trouble, Yin He stepped forward, stood on Ye Cheng's left hand side, and said, "Why don't you go and look at the county map?" Maybe you'll find something."
"County map?"
Ye Cheng was particularly surprised, he turned to look at Yin He, and asked, "Shopkeeper Yin, what is the county map?" ”
Yin Hao patiently explained: "The county map is a map that records the towns and cities of Manland"
That's great!
Yin He's news is too timely.
Hearing this news, Ye Cheng was suddenly pleasantly surprised! He smiled at Yin He and asked, "Then may I ask Shopkeeper Yin, do you know where this county map is?" ”
Yin Hao thought for a moment. When she came to Manlan to look for a tomb, she was trapped in the city once. At that time, the people were asked how to leave, and the people of Manlan Kingdom mentioned the county map. But at that time, it was only mentioned, and it was not explicitly stated.
Judging from the cautious attitude of the people, Yin He guessed that the county map was a very important thing, and the important thing should only be stored in the hands of the most powerful people in the city.
There is only one highest right in the city.
After thinking about it in his heart, Yin He looked at Ye Cheng and explained: "You can go to the county government to see, the county government of Manlan Kingdom has a huge crescent-shaped object, as long as you find this crescent object, you can find the county office, and then find the county map."
Hearing this, Ye Cheng hurriedly looked at everyone and said, "Okay, let's all spread out again to find that crescent-shaped object."
And when Ye Cheng gave the order to act, Bai Yingping lowered his head and thought, he remembered that when he was searching the town just now, he did find something like a crescent moon. I didn't look closely, but I was sure it was a corner of the crescent moon.
Thinking of this, Bai Yingping raised his head and looked at Ye Cheng, and said anxiously: "Ye Cheng, we know where the crescent-shaped thing is, come with me."
After speaking, Bai Yingping turned around and ran with his back to Ye Cheng.
Ye Cheng looked at Bai Yingping's back as he gradually ran away, he didn't doubt Bai Yingping's words, so he hurriedly ordered: "Go, let's follow"
After the order, he squatted down and grabbed Bei Mao's left hand and put it on his shoulder, and then helped Bei Mao up with Zhu Zixing, saying, "Zixing, let's take Brother Bei Mao to follow everyone."
"Hmm"
Zhu Zixing replied softly, and then ran forward with Ye Cheng Fu Beimao.
Under Bai Yingping's leadership, they soon came to the crescent-shaped object.
The crescent-shaped object was sunk deep in the sand, only partially exposed. The crescent-shaped object is snow-white, like ivory. But the crescent-shaped object was so large that the part exposed in the sand could not be held by an adult man, so it could not be ivory.
Whatever it was, the ivory-like object had been found now, and nothing else was always needed.
Ye Cheng shouted: "Quick, go find the county map"
Under Ye Cheng's shouting, everyone scattered around again, looking for the ruins of this house. Because the ruins were covered with sand, it was very difficult to find them.
But that won't stop you from finding the county map.
Ye Cheng turned his head to look at Zhu Zixing and said, "Zixing, you help Brother Beimao first, and I will also help find it."
Zhu Zixing said: "Well, little master be careful"
After letting go of Beimao, Ye Cheng slowly walked towards the crescent moon that was exposed on the sand. As he walked, he analyzed and carefully looked at the buildings that were exposed to the sand.
There are no damaged buildings near the crescent, this should be a yard.
And now behind the position where Ye Cheng is standing, there are very few buildings, and they are lined up, which should be the wall of the courtyard.
Not far in front of Ye Cheng, there are many broken buildings, and the roof that is slanted into a triangle can be clearly seen, which should be the house in the yamen.
If the county map is in the county office, it is most likely there.
The orientation was roughly determined, and the next step was excavation. This has to find two people with great strength, and Ye Cheng already has an idea in his heart.
Ye Cheng turned his head to look for it, and not far from the right-hand side, he found four burly apprentices, so he shouted: "Ziding Ziguo, you two come with me"
After shouting, Ye Cheng immediately ran towards the building that had been locked just now.
Zhu Ziding and Zhu Ziguo heard the shouting, and after turning around and seeing Ye Cheng's running figure, they didn't think much about it, and after glancing at each other, they ran towards Ye Cheng.
