Chapter 434: The Silver Snake Haunts the Ancient City
All the way to the west, a few days later, a pair of centaurs came to a desert Gobi.
"Miss, through this desert, it is the ancient city of Loulan. ”
Shen Man'er looked out of the car window and said that it was a desert, but in fact, there were many green trees in the distance.
From a distance, there is still a strange red in the sand, and when the green wind blows, a fishy smell comes to the face.
"Anlong, what's going on with this desert? ”
An Long held the reins in his hand tightly, the horse wrapped his eyes with gauze, and wore four holsters under his feet, and walked quite strangely.
"Miss, this ancient city of Loulan is not a good place, it is said that more than a thousand years ago, it was also a beautiful ancient city, producing beautiful women and famous wine.
It's a pity that there are only three generations of prosperity, and the third generation of monarchs are extravagant, expropriating and expropriating, plundering beauties and gold and silver everywhere, and the people are unbearable.
At this time, a White Lotus Sect appeared among the people, which actually advocated that the people should resist the imperial court army with their flesh and blood.
For a while, the corpses of Chaoge were all over the field, and even this ancient city was dyed red, maybe even the heavens couldn't stand it, and then a group of poisonous scorpions and beasts appeared here, and then all the people in this ancient city of Loulan disappeared.
No one knows what's going on here, no one knows where all the people have gone, and the ancient city suddenly disappeared from the world overnight.
Brave people want to come to check the secrets of this ancient city, either eaten by fierce beasts, or poisoned to death, so for hundreds of years, this place has slowly turned into a desert.
Legend has it that although the ancient city of Loulan has disappeared, their resentment has not dissipated, so a thousand years have passed, but the ground here seems to still ooze blood.
Maybe there were no people, and the beasts were almost gone, and after a few hundred years, someone finally came to the ancient city again, but the ancient city has been reduced to a broken brick and tile, and there is no prosperity in the past.
Later, there were legends that they heard poignant songs in the ancient city, and some people said that they saw beautiful fairies in the ancient city, but those are all legends, and people slowly forgot about the ancient city.
Until ten years ago, a Taoist passed through the ancient city and found an ancient tomb in the ancient city, and by chance he entered the ancient tomb, but when he came out, he forgot everything inside, and not only that, but he also became a cripple with only half a leg.
If it hadn't happened to be a pair of merchants passing by and saving him, that Taoist would have become a pile of dry bones by now. ”
Shen Man'er felt goosebumps all over her body when she heard this, and when she thought that the weird red color just now was actually human blood, Shen Man'er felt sick.
And listening to An Long's words, that ancient tomb is so terrifying, do she want to go in.
The carriage creaked forward, and Shen Man'er could hear the rustling sound from under the carriage from time to time, as well as the impatient kicking hooves of the horses.
"Anlong, what's going on?"
"Miss, don't worry, it's getting dark, and the poisonous scorpion is about to go out, so we just need to find a cave to settle down in before it gets dark." ”
Scorpions!
Shen Man'er couldn't help but rub her body, and when she thought of the creature with poisonous pincers on her tail, and it appeared in groups, Shen Man'er couldn't help but feel numb in her scalp.
As the sun went down, a couple finally found a cave before it got dark and lit a bonfire inside.
There is also a lot of dry firewood in it, and it seems that there are many people who have taken refuge in this cave before.
Thundered...
A few people slept until midnight, but outside they remembered the sound of thunder, accompanied by the sound of horses barking at the entrance of the cave, which sounded particularly terrifying.
An Long suddenly opened his eyes, no, they met the silver snake and made trouble in the ancient city.
"Miss, wake up. ”
Shen Man'er didn't dare to sleep in the first half of the night, and not long after falling asleep at this time, she was called out by An Long.
Kukaka...
A lightning bolt exploded outside the cave, and the silver snake fell to the ground, illuminating the cave as if it were day, and Shen Man'er woke up in fright.
"Anlong, what's wrong?"
"Miss, it's going to rain, no matter what happens later, you and Zhu'er must not go out. ”
Shen Man'er heard An Long say this, and suddenly felt that something big was going to happen.
"Anlong, what the hell is going on? You don't let me and Zhu'er go out, at least let us both understand what's going on. ”
"Miss, this desert rains, here is called the silver snake in the ancient city, every time it rains, all the poisonous snakes around will gather here, if one is not careful, it will become a poisonous snake's meal.
If a poisonous snake attacks in a while, An Hu and I will protect the entrance of the cave, and you and Zhu'er must protect ourselves inside. ”
Viper!
Shen Man'er felt that the poisonous scorpion was already terrifying, and there was a poisonous snake at this time, should this ancient city be so terrifying.
At this time, Shen Man'er felt that it was a big mistake for her to come to this ancient tomb.
"Miss, don't worry, it's just some poisonous snakes, we can't help it, as long as the rain stops and the sky is bright, it's fine. ”
Shen Man'er hugged Zhu'er and leaned against the rock wall tightly, she also wanted to calm herself, but the things she was most afraid of were all at once today.
In order not to worry An Long, she still nodded vigorously.
It didn't take long for the raindrops the size of beans to fall, knocking on the sand that had been drying for a long time, making a popping sound.
Soon the rain gathered into red rivers, bending and flowing into the distance.
Babbling...
With the sound of snake letters, Shen Man'er knew that poisonous snakes were coming, and there were still many of them.
An Long and An Hu drew their sabers and stood on either side of the cave.
This cave seems to have been attacked by poisonous snakes before, so after wandering around outside, the poisonous snakes moved in unison.
By the light of the fire in the cave, An Long and An Hu looked at the poisonous snake outside like a carpet, and then their faces tightened, which was too much.
A man-snake war is about to begin.
The horse was tethered to the periphery of the cave, and although its eyes were blindfolded, the animal's nature also made it feel the danger coming.
Roar roar...
The horses kept jumping up and down on the spot, and finally broke free from the reins and ran out of the cave.
"Horse..."
Pearls barked in the cave, and then they hurried, but they still had to rely on the horses.
As soon as she finished speaking, the horse suddenly stopped in place, and then fell to the ground with a bang, and when it looked at it again, it had turned into a white bone.
Vomit...
Shen Man'er and Zhu'er couldn't help retching, it was too terrifying, such a big horse turned into a pile of white bones in an instant, if it was replaced by a person...
It was as if it was the blood of the horses that made these poisonous snakes even more exciting, and the poisonous snakes, which were still slowly wriggling, actually pounced on the cave one after another.
Burst...
An Long cut off four or five poisonous snakes with one sword, and the blood was scattered on the ground, emitting a pungent fishy smell, but the attack of the poisonous snakes was even more violent.
