Chapter 124: The Mysterious Palace

Without a guide, the desert journey at the end of the Tang Dynasty was much more difficult.

Although the strange beast was not encountered again, the harsh terrain and the fickle weather could no longer be avoided.

Jingjing is even heavier now, although she hasn't grown much, but her weight has caught up with that of a seven or eight-year-old child.

Only when there was an emergency, he got into Tang Mo's backpack, and usually walked in front of Tang Mo by himself to open the way for Tang Mo.

With such a little guy by his side, Tang Mo didn't feel very lonely, and he was quite happy along the way.

I don't know how long I walked, but Tang Mo still didn't see anything other than sand in the desert.

Not even a single green plant, let alone a person.

Once there are no other obstacles in one's vision, one's attention will be much more concentrated.

Tang Mo lowered his head and looked at the sand under his feet, rough and scorching with the temperature of the sun after a long time.

Looking up at the road ahead, it was still exactly the same......

Wrong!

Tang Mo's originally lazy eyes suddenly became serious.

The sand beneath her feet was coarse, even mixed with small particles of stone.

But the sand in front of it was obviously more delicate, and even reflected some of the golden light of the sun.

Tang Mo took a closer look and found that the delicacy only maintained within a small range of a hundred meters in front of her, about a circle of about five meters in diameter.

When things go wrong, there must be demons, at this time, Tang Mo's heart remembered the words he had said in the casual chat with the guide before, so he stopped cautiously.

But at this time, Jingjing, who was walking in front of the end of the Tang Dynasty, continued to walk forward defenselessly, and saw that she was about to reach the range of the fine sand.

"Jingjing, stop!"

Tang Mo immediately shouted at Jingjing, who had been walking in front of him.

"Huh?"

Jingjing jumped forward a few more steps, and then looked back at Tang Mo with a puzzled expression.

At this time, there was a slight vibration on the ground, and the vibration was very subtle, but it was still noticed by Tang Mo, who had released his spiritual power and always paid attention to the surrounding situation.

Just a second after the shock, the circle of fine sand began to flow on the ground like liquid.

It's quicksand!

It was only at this time that Tang Mo finally confirmed what the fine sand in front of him was, it was quicksand.

She had heard the guide mention quicksand before, it was like a man-eating monster, which could devour people in a very short period of time, and people didn't even have the strength to resist.

It's the most natural horror trap in the desert.

At this time, Jingjing's two legs had sunk into the sand, and it kept struggling, but it couldn't pull out its legs, so it could only watch its body being pulled into the sand little by little.

"Woooooooooooo Woo......"

Jingjing looked at Tang Mo with a frightened and pleading look, wanting Tang Mo to save it.

At this time, Tang Mo had already taken out the life-saving rope he had prepared before from the space, and then tied a bottle of mineral water to the top, aimed at Jingjing's position and threw it out.

Jingjing's little head was very clever, and when Tang Mo took out the rope, he immediately understood what she meant.

The moment he flew over with a bottle of mineral water, he grabbed it.

Tang Mo saw that Jingjing grabbed the bottle over there, and hurriedly pulled the bottle out with a fox, trying to pull out the lower half of Jingjing's body that had been sunk in.

Tang Mo knew the weight of Jingjing, and it was not a problem for him to run with it on his back, but now he just pulled it out, and Tang Mo didn't take it seriously at all.

But when she tried her strength here, she found that the situation didn't seem to be as simple as she thought.

The half of Jingjing's body that had been sunk in was too difficult to pull out, it didn't look like it was buried by sand at all, but it looked like a pair of terrifying hands were dragging it vigorously under the quicksand, and Tang Mo was doing a tug-of-war.

Jingjing's two front paws tugged hard at the rope and tried to struggle upward, but there was nothing she could do.

Tang Mo added his spiritual power to his arms, and then leaned back with all his strength, but the rope still didn't move at all, and even pulled Tang Mo's covered area like quicksand little by little.

No one at both ends of the rope would admit defeat like this, Tang Mo gritted his teeth and insisted, but he still couldn't help but slide forward.

Seeing that Tang Mo was getting closer to him, the eyes of the wafer were full of struggle.

At the moment when Jingjing was about to let go of her hand, Tang Mo shouted, "Don't let go!" Believe me! ”

Tang Mo knew that at this time, it might be the best choice to let go of the rope and avoid the quicksand area, Jingjing was just a strange beast.

But for so long, she has long regarded Jingjing as her partner, her first partner.

It's not so much that she has to save Jingjing, it's that she can't accept a self that will abandon her partner immediately when she encounters danger.

Suddenly, Tang Mo felt as if there was a sound of vibration on the ground under his feet.

"Oh no, the suction of quicksand seems to have become bigger!"

If Tang Mo could barely compete with the quicksand just now, then she still held the rope firmly now, and she had no power to resist.

barely gave Tang Mo time to react, and in an instant, Tang Mo was pulled into the quicksand by the rope, and the whole person was trapped.

The world is spinning

Tang Mo only felt that her whole person was falling, and the uncontrollable weightlessness made her feel unreal, as if she was so close to death.

The whole body is covered with soft sand with temperature, and it is not as terrifying as imagined, but it seems to be curled up in the arms of my mother.

Fortunately, the desert was dusty, and Tang Mo had been wearing a dust mask, so that her mouth and nose could not be blocked by the sand, and she could barely maintain the most basic breathing.

I don't know how long it took, but when Tang Mo felt a little dizzy because of suffocation, she fell to the ground.

The height should have been high for such a long time, but there was no pain, and the sand under his body was all pressed solidly, and the top of the sand pile was pressed out into the shape of the end of the Tang Dynasty.

"It hurts......"

Tang Mo patted his face with his hand and slowly opened his eyes, the soreness in her body couldn't make her stand up quickly, so she could only lie there in a large shape first.

At this height, is it under the earth's surface?

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, he looked at the top of his head, and what caught his eye was a very high wall top, just like what he had seen in Dunhuang before the end of the Tang Dynasty.

Looking around, the space here is very large, like a huge palace, with pillars, murals, and many unrecognizable sculptures from the late Tang Dynasty.

Mysterious, solemn, is the biggest feeling here.

But the biggest difference from ordinary palaces is that everything here is made of sand.

Including the walls, the roof, and those sculptures and murals.

Tang Mo slowly stood up from the sand pile and patted his clothes.

She seemed to know where this was.
