Di Renjie comfortingly patted the weasel that had been drilled into the sleeping bag, the four of them opened their eyes wide, every midnight, the annoying wind would blow, the time was very accurate, Di Renjie took the hourglass almost exactly the same.

Listening to the whimpering sound in the distance, you knew that the wind was coming, and this wind blew from the desert in the distance, swept over the bare poplar treetops, fell to the ground, and gathered dust and plunged into the city, the broken wooden door was swayed by the wind, and the gate slammed against the door frame with a screeching sound, and then quickly bounced back, and this slapping seemed to be endless.

Di Renjie saw a large piece of the tent sunken down, as if there was a tangible demon who seemed to be trying to get into the tent, he put both hands into the sleeping bag, and the two delicate crossbows were held in my hands, although he knew that this was the result of the wind blowing, and he also knew a lot about the desert from the master, and he could answer many questions from the captain, but be careful where there would be mistakes, and be careful to guard against this is a good quality, he decided to carry it out.

The one in his left hand is Xiao Wu's crossbow, the handle is wrapped with a ribbon, and the one-foot-long recurve bow wing will have strong kinetic energy after being excited, and it can definitely penetrate gold and stone in a short distance.

"The Sun Tomb is different from other tombs, it is purely made of wood, the material is the poplar here, this tree is said to be immortal for a thousand years, dead for a thousand years without falling, and immortal for a thousand years, it is a yin wood in the tree, not only has the effect of embalming, the most important thing is that this wood can isolate yin and yang, and lock people's yin souls in the cemetery and cannot be born, as long as it is a sun tomb, someone will be martyred, according to legend, people buried in the cemetery will be martyred. The longest can live for three years, so ah, when you enter the Sun Tomb, you must not only guard against the Yin Spirit, but also against the Yin People, those who live at the bottom of the tomb are more terrible than the beast and the snake. For they survive by eating the dead. (See Pope Kills Lady)

The voice of the yellow squirrel came faintly from the sleeping bag, and the dog impatiently threw his skin bag over and said loudly: "Yellow squirrel, you can't speak well, do you have to say so miserable?" ”

The yellow squirrel stuck his head out of his sleeping bag and said with a smile: "This is to relieve everyone's boredom, how can you say ghost stories if you don't say that, tell sù you, the most dedicated people in this world are tomb robbers, our ancestors in order to make a fortune, they are all over the world to find big tombs." I have been to all over the world, and the desert is no exception.

The tomb of the Central Plains has been stolen, and now there is only to go to the Western Regions, the tombs of those extravagant merchants in the Western Regions are no worse than the tombs of the Central Plains, digging the tombs of the Central Plains will cut off their heads if they are caught by the officials, and many things cannot be sold because of the problem of etiquette. Isn't this a real buying and repaying the pearl?

The things in the Western Regions are good, and the things in the tombs can be sold for money. From the crown to the dead man's underwear, hehe, if you get a prince's tomb, you won't have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of your life. “

Di Renjie also poked his head out and said to the weasel: "That's how your legend about the Sun Tomb came about? ”

"That's right, the captain said that anyone who enters the Sun Tomb will not survive, but in fact, this is a bit absolute, and I know that someone has crawled out of the Sun Tomb. also made a fortune, but the end was miserable, the flesh all over his body was rotten, and the last piece fell down, and the ancestor said that he was poisoned by the corpse. He also said that if he encounters such a tomb again, as long as he opens the tomb and puts it in the scorching sun for three days, he can go down. At that time, the corpse poison was sunburned, and there was absolutely no problem. ”

The dog laughed, gasped and said to Di Renjie: "Xiaojie, listen, in the end, it is the origin of tomb robbery, don't let go of any opportunity to rob the tomb, we besieged Loulan City with a large army, so many people don't say to dig the sun tomb, even if it is to dig the moon tomb, it's no problem, he is purging you to rob the tomb." ”

"Sleep, tomorrow we will go to their temple and cemetery to see, if no clues are found, it is necessary to dig Loulan three feet into the ground, Your Majesty's will is unquestionable."

"Xiaojie, I'm actually very strange, the captain is right, it's the Loulan people who are gone, and it's not us Tang people, why does Your Majesty pay so much attention to Loulan, just saying a word that hinders the trade road can't be explained at all, I want to go to other countries, not only Loulan This road, you can reach Dashi and Persia like Kucha, you see, we have been here for half a month, have you ever seen a caravan pass here? They all took a detour. ”

The dog has changed a lot over the years, and being able to say this shows that he has put his mind into it, Di Renjie didn't say much, but just said to the dog: "You go and look at the map of our Tang Dynasty, Your Majesty never does meaningless things, Mr. Xu Jingzong, Mr. Jin Zhu actually know, so they don't care about the things here, let me mess around alone." ”

"Why are you messing around?" Xiao Tie, whose head was in the sleeping bag, couldn't help it anymore and interjected.

"Why? Because I love it! Di Renjie smiled and teased Xiao Tie, and then put his head back into the sleeping bag. The tent suddenly fell silent, and the wind outside was still whining, but it lost the gloomy and miserable meaning just now.

After dawn, Di Renjie got out of the tent and found that a thick layer of floating soil had fallen on the leeward side of the tent, and his mouth was full of sand grains, which was very uncomfortable.

Xu Jingzong's official position is the largest, he will never come out as long as he can not get out of the tent now, the local captain persuaded him to live in the house in Loulan City, and repeatedly promised that it was cleaned up, but Xu Jingzong was blocked back by the high-sounding words of a thief who was called a thief without telling him, and his noble quality of freezing to death and not entering the empty house immediately won everyone's respect.

Since Mr. didn't live in, Di Renjie and these juniors could naturally only follow Mr., as for Mr. Jinzhu, who wanted to defend the high wind and bright festival of the academy, he was arranged into the carriage by Xu Jingzong under the pretext that he was weak, and the conditions there were much better than tents.

The day of Loulan City is brighter than the night, the tall towers are bathed in the sun and drag out long shadows, the streets do not need to be cleaned, the wind of last night has blown the white stones spotlessly, and there may be some small sand piles scattered in the corners of the walls, which are actually in the shape of waves.

During the day, it is naturally the world of people, and the sergeants of the Tang Dynasty are in and out of the city, and they do not let go of every corner, because Di Renjie gave an order that not an inch of land should be spared.

Xu Jingzong came out of the tent wrapped in a big coat, his tent has three layers, the thermal insulation performance is very good, a Persian slave girl accompanied him to live in the tent, which he bought when he passed by Shanshan, the lonely night always needs a warm chest to make him forget that he is still in the desert, this kind of celebrity and gentleman is chic, only Xu Jingzong can come out of the academy.

"Xiaojie, you still have ten days to go, we will return when the time comes, you know, the old man can't stand the cold, he needs to go back to the pass early, throwing the old bones outside the Yumen Pass is not the old man's plan, when the time comes, I will casually report a reason, naturally there will be a large army to settle the Yiqiē here, this is the meaning of His Majesty, you and I both understand, do less stupid things."

Di Renjie bared his white teeth and smiled brightly at Xu Jingzong, and a bad premonition suddenly enveloped his head, and he couldn't help but tremble: "Boy, don't you have any bad news to hide and not tell the old man?" “

Di Renjie took out a letter from his arms and showed the second one to Xu Jingzong: "Look, this is a message sent by the student's fiancée from Chang'an, and I only received it yesterday. “

Xu Jingzong finished reading the piece of paper, his face was like ashes, and he muttered: "The old man met your master and apprentice, this is to fold my life expectancy, the Taoist priest of Wanshou Palace gave me the number of lives is a high life expectancy of eighty and seven out of illness, and when I meet your master and apprentice, the old man can live past the age of fifty-seven, even if the sky has eyes." “

Di Renjie hugged the crumbling Xu Jingzong and comforted him: "Look, my master is about to take up the post of the Grand Protector of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate, then, the position of Changshi belongs to you, your official position should have risen a long time ago, and in one breath, from the fourth grade, to the third grade, this is a whole level up."

The kid heard that the fourth grade to the third grade is just a level up, but this is a huge watershed, when you return to Chang'an, you will definitely be the prime minister in the political hall, and you should celebrate. “

Xu Jingzong knocked a shudder on Di Renjie's head in shame and roared: "Nonsense, doesn't the old man know? I still want you to talk more, is the third-grade official of Beiting very good? The brain was kicked by a donkey, and it was not appropriate to be a fourth-grade Beijing official, and he came to Beiting to be a third-grade official, and he was happy to deal with rough men in the army all day long? No wonder you're not in a hurry, even Xiao Wu doesn't worry about it, boy, the old man doesn't matter, your fiancée is a good look, you stay in Beiting and are not afraid of a business trip? ”

Di Renjie once again gave Xu Jingzong a big smile and said: "My master said that he wanted me to finish the matter as soon as possible and go back to Chang'an to get married, his old man has already found a good position for the kid in Dali Temple, as long as he goes back, he will serve, I heard that he is a six-grade official." ”

Xu Jingzong groaned and said, "Sixth rank official? This is a position that countless people have to endure for a lifetime to reach, the old man was a six-grade official when he served as the editor of the country, and at that time he was already thirty and one, just this, it has been known as a rare fortune, you are seventeen years old this year, and you are the chief official of the six products in Dali Temple, which makes the old man such a person embarrassed. ”

For the ambitious Xu Jingzong, as long as he is a third-grade official, it doesn't matter if he is in the sky, although he looks very unhappy, but his heart is cheering, stay in Beiting for a few years, and return to Chang'an is definitely like Di Renjie said, he will become the prime minister of the political hall, although there are more people there.
