The sky was clear, but my heart was coated with a haze, and the uneasiness that came from my heart enveloped me, just like the palpitations before the last action, I didn't know what that scream meant, I could only think in the direction of the worst, the worst was probably everyone dying in the sand.

No, this is not a floating island, there will be no irresistible death factors, the Mo family is so powerful, even if there are really any monsters, they also have armor, and Brother Shen, he has a power that I still can't fathom.

It's a pity that no matter how powerful they are, they can't completely dispel my doubts and uneasiness, leaving the quicksand, Ah Chuan will return to a relaxed and indifferent appearance, I don't know if he is really not worried or pretend to show us, he is the backbone of the team, if he collapses, the whole team will be finished.

The weather is still hot, we are facing the blazing sun, but no one proposes to rest, the sand under our feet is not moving, but we have seen the sudden attack of quicksand, no one can guarantee that the flat sand is safe at this moment, we dare not stay in one place for a long time, we can only keep moving forward.

Ah Chuan and Xiao Qi found two more quicksand places, we bypassed it in advance, and saw the sun gradually tilting westward, and a Yadan landform appeared in front of us.

Standing far away on the horizon, their unpredictable orange-yellow color in the sunlight, Ah Chuan glanced at the compass in his hand and said, "That's it, the ruins you are looking for are in that devil's city." ”

The team boiled slightly, and then quickly quieted down, Professor Zhang looked at the Devil's City from afar, his face showed a little yearning, they had suffered a lot for this archaeology, and now they finally saw their destination.

I can understand the excitement, every adventure, no matter how dangerous it is, the moment you see the jade, you will forget it, and the sense of accomplishment at that time is incomparable.

"It's still early, let's go quickly, and maybe we can inspect it first." Professor Zhang's voice was filled with suppressed excitement.

Ah Chuan nodded, and led the team straight to the Devil's City, this distance seems to be far, but in fact, it takes less than an hour, and I only think about Uncle Yuan and them, I have only thought about Uncle Yuan and them, and it has been more than three hours since I walked from that quicksand to now, even if this ruin is big, it will not spread so far, what is it that makes that strange cry?

The clouds were still shrouded, and the archaeological team forgot the scream when they saw the Devil's City, and I didn't dare to mention it again, as long as I thought about it, I could understand that it didn't belong to this ruin at all, and there was indeed something under the sand.

Huge shadows were cast, the towering mushroom-shaped rocks were magnificent, the archaeological team was hammering and loading samples, everyone was solemn, we kept walking towards the depths of the Devil's City, and I don't know how Agawa found the way, all sides were wrapped in huge rocks that overlapped on top of each other, and if I went forward by myself, I would be lost.

This group of students walked in the desert still looked scared and tired, and even their eyes were brightened when they arrived here, and Ah Chuan watched them knock and beat without urging, leaning on the camel with a leisurely and complacent appearance.

The more we walked towards the center of the Devil's Town, the lower and thicker the rocks became, and at last they became huge rock mounds, and the color became much lighter, from orange to earthy yellow, and we walked for about an hour before we saw the artificially carved stone pillars.

These stone pillars have been weathered for a long time, and there should have been carvings on them, but they have long been peeled off, and even the most basic shape can hardly be seen, only the roots of the stone pillars still bear traces of artificial excavation.

The archaeological team stopped and took pictures to take stones, Lao Huang stood with a bored face, I was a little curious, and from time to time I came up to see, although there are stones, the sand here is still very thick, it is difficult to see how high these stone pillars are.

I saw that Professor Zhang kept drawing something in the notebook, and when I looked closely, it was the distribution map of these stone pillars, and he numbered each stone pillar, which looked very professional, and I was afraid that he would suddenly ask me something geology, so I walked away after a few glances.

"Tsk, the professional is different." Lao Huang said, yawning, looking bored.

I turned my head and saw Xiao Qi climbing up the stone mound on the side, to see that the slope of the stone mound was quite gentle, and he climbed up with his hands and feet, all around were high and low rocks, like a stone forest, I couldn't see the edge, we had unconsciously gone so far, at this moment with our backs to the sun looking east, we couldn't see the shadow of the desert.

"Look over there."

Xiao Qi suddenly spoke, I quickly turned my head to look, only to see a lot of broken and damaged stone walls distributed in the northwest direction, no roof, the ruins and broken walls were almost weathered, only revealing a piece of stone of different shapes, barely called a wall, surrounded by these stone walls, the center is a huge dome building, half of it is sunk in the sand, you can barely see the shape of the roof, its wall has small windows that have been obviously carved out, and they are also weathered.

My heart moved, it must be the center of this ancient city, and it must be the royal palace, if it is not buried by the wind and sand, it must be tall and magnificent, even if only the fragmentary appearance remains, you can see the glory of the past.

This ruin is not what I imagined, I thought it had been buried by the wind and sand, and we had to dig to see it, but I didn't expect it to stand quietly in the stone forest, although it was half buried, it was not inaccessible.

This saved us a lot of work, and the archaeological team was also busy, so we walked forward again, Professor Zhang kept marking in his notebook, and all the way to the west, we soon saw the broken and fallen stone walls.

The students were all excited, and began to take samples again, but unfortunately the place was so badly weathered, only a few stone walls could see the outlines of the windows, and they were all in tatters, this must be a place where ordinary people lived, I glanced at a few houses, all of them were sand, and I was expecting to see any bottles and jars, but I couldn't even see the larger stone tools.

From a distance, I only saw a ruined wall, and when I got closer, I found that these stone walls were very tall, about three meters above the ground, and more were buried under the yellow sand, and the area of the houses was also considerable, and they were probably many families living together.

The archaeological team brought tools that could be excavated, but they didn't move, I wanted to see the freshly baked antiques, but they also came to naught, thinking that Professor Zhang once said that they were just here for a simple investigation, if there are really any antiques here, they can't bring them back safely, so they won't go to excavate.

The archaeology was much more serious than I thought, they took the samples and marked them, and walked straight to the center of the old city, where they could already see the huge and towering building from the current angle.

I also felt apprehensive in my heart, Nineteen described this place as hell, but I didn't think there was anything terrible, just looking at the area of this ruin, it was indeed not small, but it was far less vast than I imagined, the desert was hot and dry, this huge ancient city must have a larger underground palace, and there must be a rich underground water system below.

How could such an ancient city be buried by a simple sandstorm? I suddenly remembered Agawa's contemptuous "nonsense", which must be more dangerous and mysterious than I thought.

We soon walked to the outside of the tall building, and when we looked closely, it was very large, it really looked like a palace, and outside the main entrance there was a huge circular clearing, five or six hundred square meters, and the open space was completely buried by yellow sand, only surrounded by a circle of towering stone pillars, and I could see its shape, I don't know what these stone pillars meant, but I felt faintly uncomfortable, they were like fences, trapping us in them.

God knows how tall these stone pillars are, if you really stand on the ground, you should only feel the shock, this palace is mostly buried in the sand, only the dome is exposed, the sand is sloping, the dome on one side is half buried, and on the other side there is a little stone wall exposed, and you can see the windows on the wall that are regularly distributed.

These windows are very small, rectangular, only thirty or forty centimeters wide, half a person high, the stone wall is extremely thick, half a meter, and the windows are even more narrow, considering the height of the building, these should not be real windows, but open above the building ventilation hole or light hole, we found a window of the right height to look in, and was immediately shocked.

The palace was so large that there was only one space in it, half of the palace was buried with sand to form a slope, and the half near us was very empty, the bottom of the palace was full of sand, and there was no real ground to be seen, and although there was a row of small windows, it was still very dark inside, and only a ray of sunlight shone through one of the windows, reflecting a very beautiful face.

A face suddenly appeared in the dark, everyone was startled, and then looked carefully, only to find that it was a very high stone sculpture, the lower part of the stone sculpture was buried by sand, only the upper body was exposed, only the exposed part was seven or eight meters, this is a female figure, the oblique sunlight shone on her face, outlining a deep ravine, the facial features were dignified and beautiful, coupled with the golden light background, it looked like a goddess from a distance.

"Oh my God......" Professor Zhang couldn't hide his amazement, sighed, and then changed his excited tone, "This must be the queen of the ancient city, I didn't expect it to be so well preserved, this should not be a palace, but a place of sacrifice, there must be murals or something like that underneath, let's go in and have a look." ”

Those students were also excited, and they couldn't jump directly, despite the thick sand, our height is now dozens of meters away from the bottom of the palace, Ah Chuan took out the wolf's eye flashlight and shone it inward, the light pierced the darkness, and you could see the dust floating in the air, the space inside was too big, and more places were still pitch black.

"Look over there, there's a window on the roof too." Ah Chuan turned off the flashlight and pointed to the other half who was completely buried by the sand.
