After listening to Ye Rong's story, Chen Tao's three views were refreshed again.

At that time, although Qianshu Hongde had the heart to destroy the big cult created by his senior brother Yu Gongshen, he had no choice but to have more than enough strength to do so. In the face of that behemoth, he was not an opponent at all with only a few Yichuan disciples.

So, Qianshu Hongde made a decision, in order to deal with those vicious cultists, he went to the Western Regions, and asked for a magic technique that could help him eradicate the cult. And what that magic summoned was a golden holy rat.

Qianshu Hongde and the Holy Rat reached some kind of agreement, and the Holy Rat led tens of thousands of rats to join the battle, helping Qianshu Hongde to destroy the cult, and also promised him to join him in guarding the evil spirits in the ancient tomb.

Who knew that the power of that evil force was beyond Qianshu Hongde's expectations, and as time went by, not only Qianshu Hongde, but even the descendants of the Rat King who guarded the evil spirits together at the beginning were also corroded by that evil power and turned into a fierce and bloodthirsty Dementor rat.

"We learned from the information the location of the place where Qianshu Hongde went at the beginning, and Qianshu Hongde used a very precious treasure in exchange for the method of summoning the holy rat. And that thing was exactly what Di Yilong wanted. ”

"So, Uncle Long cooperated with you and got the location of that place from you?" Chen Tao asked.

"Yes, that place, it's Tatunaan."

Tatunaan, which means "sea of the desert", was once powerful among the countries of the Western Regions. It is rumored that there is a temple of the sun in the center of the holy city of Tatunaan, and the gold brick pavement in the temple is more than 100 feet apart. There is also a bright moon pearl hanging on the top of the temple, two feet in diameter, shining for thousands of miles, comparable to the sun. The Tatunans are deeply religious, and unlike other places, they have their own native religion and worship gods that are unheard of, even using rats as patron saints. It is said that there is a statue of the founding king of the country, Taktula, in the temple of the sun, and there is a secret passage under it, which leads to the underground tomb of Tatunaan. Inside are buried the kings of Tatunaan and countless treasures.

But such a powerful country suddenly disappeared overnight.

"Gone?"

"Yes, Tatunan's curse."

At the height of the Tatunan Dynasty, a terrible sandstorm devoured Tatunan, and tens of thousands of Tatunans were buried under the endless yellow sand, along with their royal city and countless treasures in the royal city. No one knows exactly what happened that day, but Tatunaan was gone forever.

"I still don't understand, since you know the location, why don't you go directly to Tatunaan, but cooperate with Uncle Long?"

"Because the key to unlocking the Holy City is in the hands of your Chen family." Ye Rong looked at Chen Tao quietly: "Over the years, countless people have crossed the desert to find this mysterious country that has disappeared, but they have all returned in vain, and they all died in the desert, and no one can come out alive, except for ......"

"Except for what?"

"Your grandfather, Chen You."

"What, my grandfather!"

"Not only did he enter the ancient city of Tatunan, but he also took the key to the holy city. However, he didn't seem to have time to tell the Chen family the location of Tatunaan, and the people ......"

Grandpa actually went to the royal city of Tatunaan!

This was the most surprising thing for Chen Tao, although he didn't know why Uncle Long went to that place, but his intuition told him that all this might be related to his grandfather.

"It's a pity that due to some special circumstances, I was not able to participate in this operation, and it was my sister who entered Tatunan with Diillon."

"So you're going to save her."

"Well, you can't imagine the danger of Tatunaan, but I'm afraid that they are more than lucky now."

Listening to Ye Rong's words, Chen Tao's heart also pinched.

"But the desert is so big, where are we going to find them?" Haozi interjected.

"Before I went, I left a locator on my sister so I could know where they were wherever they went." Ye Rong took out a tablet-like thing from her backpack, "But now, that signal is gone." ”

"The road map in this computer is the route they traveled in the desert, and by following this, we can find the location where they are missing."

"Well, how many people did you bring this time." Chen Tao asked.

"I'm alone."

"What?" Haozi stood up excitedly and directly, "Grandma, are you serious, such a dangerous place, let's do it?" ”

Ye Rong didn't speak, and only spoke after a while: "I have been restricted in the family, and there is no way to deploy people out, so I can only take risks for the sake of my sister." ”

Chen Tao's face turned pale for a while, and he said that how could the good thing of pie in the sky be so easy to smash on his head, he knew that this trip was so dangerous, and he would not accept Ye Rong's deposit if he said anything!

Where is this to go to the pot, it is simply to send to death!

"That's what I said, but there are some things we have to say ahead." Haozi said, "First of all, if you want to find them, you have to go through the Mongolian desert, where there are very few fixed sand dunes, and the map is completely useless. The most terrible thing is that there is no water, don't look at some lakes dotted on the map, it is all salt water, and there is no immortality after drinking it. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if we find their location, in case we encounter uncontrollable danger, wouldn't the three of us go to death? ”

"Don't worry, I've found a guide and equipment who is willing to take us into the desert, and I'm all ready."

"There's no other way, I'm here, and I have to rescue Uncle Long if I say anything."

Chen Tao didn't think about it, and went to ask his family for help, but this time he sneaked out, and if his father knew about it, he would definitely pull himself back immediately. And even if I told them, it would take several days to deploy manpower and equipment, and when the time came, the daylily was cold.

"How to get there?" Chen Tao gritted his teeth, anyway, it's already here, just go!

In the end, he still thought about things too simply, and he didn't think about how dangerous the desert was, but at that time, Chen Tao just wanted to seize this opportunity to pursue the truth he wanted, but he never expected that this trip would make him never forget it in his life.

Ye Rong had already arranged everything before Chen Tao and the others arrived, although she was only one person this time, but her preparation for this operation was very sufficient, and she could see that she was not lying.

That night, the three of them went back to their rooms to make final preparations.

What Chen Tao didn't expect was that this night, he, who had not dreamed for a long time, dreamed of that familiar scene again.

It's an endless stretch of golden sand dunes again, but this time, it's himself.

The dream is very chaotic, mixed with all kinds of broken pictures, although it is very different from what I dreamed before, but this time, the sense of reality is particularly strong, as if Chen Tao himself is experiencing it himself.

At first, Chen Tao was just running alone in the desert, and his thirst and hunger made him faint.

After the dream turned, he had appeared in a splendid hall, full of golden reliefs and murals, the walls were hung with jewels and diamonds, on the top of the hall, a pearl was as big as a man's head, and the light bulb illuminated the whole hall.

In the center of the main hall is a lotus throne with a huge statue sitting on it. Chen Tao tried hard to see the appearance of the statue, but found that no matter how he looked at it, the statue was a blur.

Chen Tao approached step by step, but somehow the sculpture turned into a stone platform, on which stood twelve figures in robes. Each of them had a bone knife in his hand and was stabbing at the altar beneath him.

The one lying on the altar was Chen Tao himself!

Twelve bone knives were ruthlessly inserted into his body, and a cold feeling spread throughout his body, and everything began to blur.

Finally, in the dream, I appeared in a strange desert ancient city, where the wind was raging on all sides, the relentless sandstorm swallowed everything around it, the walls and houses collapsed one after another, and the screams of people and children everywhere were chaotic.

Chen Tao ran desperately, and behind her, there was still a person pulling.

It's the woman on the dune.

Chen Tao pulled her to flee desperately, but the sandstorm behind her roared to cover them, in a panic, for a moment Chen Tao felt unprecedented despair, and the horror brought by despair, and woke up in a cold sweat during the struggle. When I looked up, I saw that Haozi was lying on the bed and sleeping dimly.

Chen Tao knew that it was a dream, but he still couldn't stop being afraid, and faintly felt that the signs were not good, so he made up his mind in his heart: "This trip is more auspicious, but there is no turning back when I open the bow, no matter what danger I encounter in front of me, I will bring Uncle Long out!" ”
