【Chapter 121】The Disappearing Ancient Kingdom of Loulan
Wang Xiaotie glanced at Xiangzi behind him and found that this guy was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Suddenly out of breath, he walked over and hugged Xiangzi's head, and began to shake violently.
"Sleep! Sleep! Sleep! Shoko, are you a pig? In addition to eating is sleeping! Lao Tzu told you to sleep! I'm going to have to shake you out of the concussion today! ”
Poor Xiangzi was awakened by Wang Xiaotie's actions in a sweet dream, and he was shaken like crazy. It wasn't until the cry of "Roadbed Roadbed~" that Wang Xiaotie let Xiangzi go.
"Humph! Seeing that you sincerely begged for mercy, Lao Tzu spared you this time. Relying on Xiangzi's inability to understand human words, Wang Xiaotie threw all the black cauldron of last night's major mistake to a camel.
Now Wang Xiaotie, who is venting, is in a much better mood, and most importantly, the feeling of fear in his heart has gradually disappeared.
Holding Xiangzi's sink and his own jug, Wang Xiaotie came back with water first, and cut a lot of fresh grass for Xiangzi. After a full day of water and food, the intense day's labor began again.
"Whatever you say, you have to get the wooden fence right! I don't want to be scared all night! ”
Secretly made up his mind, Wang Xiaotie rushed into the woods again without hesitation.
Working in the woods is a guarantee that you won't get caught in the midday sun. The canopy of the trees blocked out all the scorching sunlight, and although the air was still hot, Wang Xiaotie was already sweating. But he had no intention of resting.
Drink saliva when you're thirsty, and eat some wild fruit when you're hungry. Wang Xiaotie really made up his mind this time and completed the planned shelter as soon as possible.
Until about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, there were only three pieces of wood left in the wooden wall outside the shelter, and the wood was next to the shelter, and the pit had already been dug. As for the delay in burying it, it is because Wang Xiaotie has not done a good job of the ladder for entering and exiting.
"I'm rubbing! Is there a hole to be dug here? Plugging the crossbar in? Isn't it strong to tie it with a rope? Oh, my God! Who's going to save me! It's so hard! ”
Even the walls of the shelter with a huge amount of work did not make Wang Xiaotie difficult, but he was defeated by the making of two ladders.
I wanted to be lazy, so I just tied it with a braided rope and it was over, but who knew that when he stepped on it, the ladder immediately fell apart. It turns out that cutting corners is definitely not a good habit.
Of course, he had seen real ladders, but it was simply difficult for him to climb into the sky by cutting through a row of holes in the two standing logs. Don't even have an electric drill, just a mountain knife? What a joke to begin with.
In the end, I had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, cut out grooves one by one on the two standing logs, and then stuck the crossbar on them, and tied them with braided ropes for a few turns, and it was done!
Put the ladder in the reserved position, the most important thing is the ladder outside, there is no crossbar at the bottom of a large piece of horizontal wood that can be settled, that is the last insurance left by Wang Xiaotie who is afraid that the wolves will learn to climb the ladder and then turn in along the ladder.
You ask Wang Xiaotie how to go down? Uh~ The horizontal log was hung on the side of the ladder outside by him, and when needed, he dragged it over and put it in the groove, and after he went down, he just took it away.
Wang Xiaotie didn't believe it, with the wolf's claws, they could defy the sky to the point of assembling a ladder. So what else is there to live?
The sky had already begun to darken, and Wang Xiaotie finally buried the last three wooden stakes in the soil, and then smashed them with wood. After a little bit of the fruits of his two days' labor, a proud expression immediately appeared between his eyebrows.
Now it can only be regarded as a preliminary completion, and if you want to live in it permanently, you still need to continue to strengthen and improve. But at least sleep at night, so you don't have to worry about the danger of being eaten by wolves.
"Get up! You lazy pig! Wang Xiaotie ruthlessly drove Xiangzi off the rock table, and below the table, there was only a narrow area less than three meters long and only more than 1 meter wide, which was the exclusive space that Wang Xiaotie specially left for Xiangzi.
After putting all of Xiangzi's food and the sink under the platform, Wang Xiaotie suddenly felt that his space was much larger, and by the way, his mood was much more relaxed.
Ignoring Xiangzi's slightly aggrieved eyes, Wang Xiaotie lit the bonfire again and began to boil water for cooking.
This time, Wang Xiaotie can be regarded as putting an end to a big disaster, and his mood is naturally very leisurely. Lying on the warm rock countertop, Wang Xiaotie began to pass the time before going to bed with cranky thoughts.
"That's right! Lao Tzu also has a treasure map! ”
Suddenly thinking of something, Wang Xiaotie immediately sat up and took out the incomprehensible treasure map in his pocket.
"This map is so crude! Today's kindergarten children are estimated to draw better than this! ”
By the light of the burning fire, Wang Xiaotie once again began to carefully examine this ancient and strange treasure map.
But it is undeniable that these words are written with a sense of art. It is higher than the cursive realm of Huaxia. How to describe it? Like fog, like rain and like wind~ yes! That's it! I rub! What a fitting analogy! ”
"But who can understand what is written in this ghost-like character? Hey? That's right! Don't know if the in-game translation works? Anyway, it only takes 5 hours, try it! ”
When Wang Xiaotie redeemed the translation function on a whim, he was surprised to find that he could really understand the text on it. It's really so magical.
"My lord, the villain can't rush back to Loulan this time. But the specific location of the Scorpion King's Temple has been found out, and a detailed record has been made, hoping that the adults can avenge the villain! Sincerely. ”
"Loulan?" Wang Xiaotie fell into thought, he had heard of the name Loulan, and remembered that it was rumored to be a transit station on the Silk Road, and it was once brilliant. However, later it was burdened by the war, and even the ruins of Loulan disappeared into the yellow sand.
The ancient books of our country record that the last time of the existence of the ancient kingdom of Loulan was in the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which was the most chaotic period in the history of our country. And Loulan is a place where military forces and soldiers must fight. Frequent wars and predatory looting have devastating the vegetation and transportation and trade status of Loulan.
Coupled with the migration of Lop Nur, the water source of Loulan was depleted and the plants died, resulting in a harsh climate that could no longer be inhabited.
The once famous ancient kingdom of Loulan disappeared in the long river of history.
"Could this be the Taklamakan Desert? Uh~ rub! I forgot that I was in a dungeon, so it's not unusual for anything to appear here. However, this map obviously did not reach the adult, and Loulan was long gone. ”
