Chen Tao looked at the stone pillars near the altar in disbelief.

The pillars are surrounded by circles of strangely shaped black branches, all carved from that black jade, and inlaid with gemstones of various colors. The ends of the branches are symmetrically dissolved on either side of the golden pillar, and at the top of each side is a silver plate carved with a delicate small lamp.

The shape of the small lamp is very peculiar, four silver rats with gold and jade are holding four pairs of forelimbs high, and eight small paws hold up a small lamp.

The small lamp was covered with yellow sand, and Chen Tao almost trembled as he pushed away the sand grains on the lamp plate, his face pale.

He stumbled backwards step by step, and if it weren't for the Haozi behind him to help him, he would have almost fallen off the altar.

At the beginning in the canyon of Heizigou, Chen Tao once heard the girl's call inexplicably, and then the whole person fell into an extremely strange illusion.

And the altar he saw in the illusion really appeared in front of him now.

How is all this possible!

The Grand Canyon under the sunspot ditch and here. What kind of connection are there!

Chen Tao stepped on the altar step by step as if he had lost his soul, and when he saw the human skin figurines with rat heads and human bodies on the altar, he only felt that his legs were weak, and the whole person sat on the ground.

Haozi thought that something had happened to Chen Tao, so he quickly helped him up from the ground, looked at Chen Tao's somewhat ugly face, and couldn't help asking.

"Taozi, what's wrong with you!"

Chen Tao looked at those human figurines blankly, and it took a long time to come back to his senses.

He waved his hand at Haozi to show that he was fine, and then stood up from the ground.

On the pedestal, there was a crystal sarcophagus carved from a whole piece of jade, and several of them were already thinking of a way to open the coffin.

The crystal coffin as a whole presents a dark dark green color, although it is located in the depths of the desert, but there is a layer of gray-white mist lingering around the crystal coffin.

Through the crystal jade material, you can vaguely see a slender figure inside.

Under the background of the surrounding fire, the faces of several people were dyed with a layer of green light, and they looked like dead people.

Giggle......

With the sound of the coffin lid rubbing, Ah Cheng had already slowly pushed the coffin lid open.

Chen Tao's eyes stared straight into the sarcophagus, and in the cold air, a half-naked girl in plain clothes was flat on the jade bed.

The girl's face was ruddy, and her expression was gentle, as if she had just fallen asleep. There was only a faint layer of white sand wrapped around her chest and waist, and a little spring light was faintly visible. He wears a delicately carved silver crown on his head, each flower is gilded, and the petals are inlaid with tiny gemstones. A green silk slid down her shoulders and spread out under the girl's thin waist.

The girl was fair-skinned and smooth as jade, and wore four shiny silver bracelets on her wrists and ankles. Her hands were quietly clasped on her lower abdomen, and her slender jade legs were so holy that people didn't dare to blaspheme.

The girl's lips were lightly raised, and there was a hint of sweetness on her face

Laughing, his eyes are slightly closed, and his long eyelashes are so beautiful that they stand up like a row of early spring shoots, as if they will open their eyes at any moment.

Looking at the delicate and lovely child on the bed like a sleeping elf, everyone was silent.

In front of her, even Ye Rong and Ye Ling'er seemed inferior.

As for shrine maidens, the two are not the same style at all.

Under this holiness, the fiery heat of the shrine maiden is simply unbearable.

Everyone was stunned, but Chen Tao, his eyes were straight, and a chill appeared all over his body.

"How is this possible!" Chen Tao couldn't believe what was in front of him.

Far away, I don't know how many thousands of miles away from the Heizigou Man-eating Valley, there will be a fantasy here.

All this is simply impossible to explain with common sense!

"This is, Virgen Natisa!" Balohad fell to his knees with a pop, his voice trembling.

Looking at the unearthly saintess in the jade coffin, Chen Tao's heart suddenly felt as if he had been hit hard by something, and the whole person couldn't help but feel his blood surge, and there seemed to be another thought in his mind that wanted to break through.

"Natisha ......."

Chen Tao's voice became hoarse and heavy, as if he had aged thousands of years in an instant.

In the stunned gaze of everyone, Chen Tao walked to the jade coffin step by step, and reached out to caress the girl's rosy cheeks.

A crystal teardrop fell from Chen Tao's eyes, and at that moment, the entire hall seemed to become bright.

Everyone seemed to see a bright white light emitted from the jade coffin, surrounding the girl and Chen Tao.

In the glow, there seemed to be two phantom shadows rising, and a handsome but somewhat mature long-haired man took the girl's hand and slowly rose to the top of the main hall.

The light slowly rose, blinding everyone with dazzling light, and finally disappeared above the black roof of the temple.

The hall darkened in an instant.

Everyone rubbed their eyes and looked into the jade coffin, only to see that the coffin was empty, only a handful of golden yellow sand remained.

Everyone was shocked by the strange scene before, not knowing if it was a hallucination or a reality.

Chen Tao was lying on the stone wall of the jade coffin, his hair turned gray, and there were tears on his eyelashes.

No one knows what just happened.

Ye Ling'er squatted down and carefully probed Chen Tao's snort, and then let go of the worry on his face.

At that moment just now, Chen Tao seemed to have traveled through time and space and became another person.

That person is called Qianshu Hongde.

In order to find a way to defeat his senior brother Hao Yu Gongshen, he took a few disciples into the vast sea of sand.

After several lives and deaths, there is no hope of seeking the way.

One by one, the disciples fell, and in the end, only the strong arc shadow remained, stumbling over the long sand dunes.

But in the end, he fell.

When he woke up, he was already lying on a soft gauze bed.

There is a faint intoxicating fragrance wafting all around.

"You...... Hello, my name is ........ Natisha! ”

Front

The girl, delicate and lovely, explained to him little by little, in her unskilled Chinese, how she had found him in the desert and brought him back to Tatunan.

Because he was afraid that his strict father would be held accountable, he could only hide quietly in his boudoir.

Day after day, under the careful care of the girl, Qianshu Hongde gradually recovered.

When the girl blushed and said that she would take him to her father, the man who was in his old age blushed for the first time.

Sure enough, the girl was severely reprimanded by her father and put Qianshu Hongde in prison.

At this time, he knew that this beautiful girl was actually a princess of a country, the woman with the highest status in Tatunaan.

And he is just a wandering warlock.

Risking betrayal of her people, Natisha stole the king's spell, killed the king's most loyal guard, and let him go.

"Don't come back, forget me, never come back!"

The desert night is cold and desolate.

Natisha's voice echoed behind Chishu Hongde for a long time.

Under the silver light, the girl was as pure as the bright moon, like a dazzling stamen blooming on the sand dunes, and it was suffocatingly beautiful.

He defeated Hao Yu Gongshen as he wished, eradicated the cult, and therefore, under one person, above ten thousand.

When he reappeared in that glorious country deep in the desert, the past was vivid in his mind.

Only this time, he was appointed as a guest of honor by the imperial order to conclude a friendship between the two countries.

She stood beside Qianshu Hongde, her head buried deeply, not daring to look at him again.

Qianshu Hongde later learned that the princess had been married to the great wizard of the dynasty.

As a guest, he was graciously invited.

At the wedding, the eyes of the two never separated, and at the last moment, Qianshu Hongde desperately held her tightly in his arms, and swore with his life to ask the king to allow them to be together.

At this time, the king had been controlled, Qianshu Hongde was forcibly placed under house arrest in the accommodation, and the wedding went on as usual.

After getting married, the princess would rather die than obey, which made the great wizard who coveted her resentful, and tried every means to get rid of Qianshu Hongde.

With the war in Tatunaan imminent, the king asked Qianshu Hongde to help strengthen the city and lay down the organs.

Qianshu Hongde took the opportunity to build a secret passage in the underground river, and made a private agreement with the princess here for life.

By chance, Chishu Hirotoku discovers the great wizard's ambitions and his secrets, and tells Natisha all about it.

It was at this time that the Great Wizard discovered the two who had a tryst and expelled Qianshu Hongde in the name of the king.

The Great Wizard, out of love and hatred, offered Natisha to the gods as a holy woman.

Qianshu Hongde was unwilling to leave, and secretly united with the princess to secretly expose the tricks of the great wizard.

Unexpectedly, the Great Wizard cursed everything before he died.

What he can't get, no one can think of.

The storm arose, disaster struck, and Tatunaan was about to be buried in the sand.

In the temple, Qianshu Hongde begged to take Natisha out of the place.

But Natisha chose Tatunaan.

She handed over the handful of golden sands to Qianshu Hongde,

He ran back to the temple.

By the time Qianshu Hongde turned back, it was too late.

The sandstorm devoured everything mercilessly, and Tatunaan disappeared under the sand.

The most brilliant flower in the desert withered.

Unwilling to end like this, Qianshu Hongde spent his life looking for a way to resurrect Natisa.

Even, once again, returned to that isolated island and entered the forbidden ruins.

Chen Tao didn't know what he had done in the forbidden ruins.

He saw only a lonely and old figure, step by step into a sarcophagus, holding the black beast box tightly in his hand.

In the end, there was only a sigh, and a cloudy tear.

Chen Tao sat down in front of the jade coffin in a distraught, no matter how Haozi and Ye Ling'er called, he didn't have any reaction.

At that moment just now, it was like a dream, as if I had lived for thousands of years at once.

Finally, Chen Tao recovered from that extreme loss and chaos.

He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, got up with a little trembling, and carefully used the beast box on his body to put away all the sand in the jade coffin.

"Thank you, Chen Tao......" An old thank you suddenly sounded in his ears.

It seems to whisper, gently echoing in the ear.

Chen Tao glanced around a little blankly, but there was nothing.

"Auditory hallucinations?"

Chen Tao shook his head, looked at the sluggish people, and smiled.

"Let's go. I know how to get out. ”
