Chapter 278: Outline of the Ancient City

The one-eyed old man rested for a while, stood up, and asked us, "Are you going to the ancient city, or are we going out together?" Anyway, I won't go to that place, life is more important than money. ”

Wang Chuyi looked at me and asked for my opinion, I am constantly hesitating in my heart now, the figure in the ancient city, it is obvious that the seventh master will not be wrong, plus Huzi is still detained by Boss Jin, so he just goes out, and he can't make a difference. However, the environment here is too dangerous, and the team of the one-eyed eight-eyed eight-eyed is deflated, and Wang Chuyi and I have touched it, and the danger factor is definitely much greater than that of the one-eyed eight.

Seeing that I was hesitant, the one-eyed old man beckoned his man to pack up his equipment and said, "Third Master Bai, I don't have time to think about life slowly with you here, I don't know if the monster will come back, we have to go first." The one-eyed old man picked up his equipment and was about to leave, but after walking a few steps, he turned around and threw me a black box, "If you really want to go, just follow the contents of the box, and in about two hours, you can get to the ancient city." After saying that, the one-eyed old man left without looking back.

When I opened the box, it was a live fish, but it looked very weak, and it seemed that the water supply in the box was insufficient, and the little fish could not last long.

Wang Chuyi saw the small fish in the box and said, "This one-eyed old man is really here, this kind of blue crystal fish has been brought." ”

Listening to Wang Chuyi's introduction, I learned that this kind of aquamarine fish is a marine fish, generally living in the deep sea area north of the Atlantic Ocean, it is difficult to catch, and the living environment of this fish is very harsh, it is generally dead when it is salvaged, if you can get the salt water of the deep sea, coupled with a specific container environment, it can last for a month, the biggest feature of this fish is orientation, due to the special body structure, this fish will always swim towards the north, even if it stops, the head of the fish will face the north, Very accurate and never went wrong.

However, this kind of fish itself is very rare, and it costs a lot of silver to get a live one, it seems that the one-eyed old eight has done enough homework when he came to Wawu Mountain this time, and he can even think of using a blue crystal fish to deal with the unique geographical environment of the ecstasy, this old eight can rank eighth among the ghost kings of the ten halls, and it is by no means a waste of fame.

I held the black box in one hand and walked in the direction pointed by the fish's head, while Wang Chuyi helped me clear the way by chopping branches with a saber beside me.

Maybe our luck is better than the one-eyed eight, we haven't encountered that kind of giant monster along the way, and the road is safe, and soon we saw the earthen wall of the ancient city, and I can't help but feel happy.

"It's so big, why is this ancient city so big?"

We stood on a high place and looked down, only to see that the area of the entire ancient city was as big as three or four Forbidden City, because the terrain was not flat, there was a slight drop in height, and we couldn't see the end at a glance.

Wang Chuyi took the telescope and carefully observed the structure of the ancient city, and said, "This ancient city has four city gates, the closest gate to us is on the north side, which is full of ancient buildings, and they are very densely distributed, and the layout of the houses is also very complicated, just like a labyrinth." Saying that, Wang Chuyi glanced at me and handed me the telescope, I raised the telescope to look at it, Wang Chuyi continued, "I didn't bring a photo, you had better use your brain to remember these architectural structures, after we go in, we will definitely get lost, and then we will be in trouble." ”

I looked carefully at the buildings in the ancient city with a telescope, because there were so many of them, and they were too densely distributed, it was definitely impossible to remember them all, and I could only do my best to remember as many as I could.

Just when I looked at the outside of the ancient city with a telescope, I suddenly found that a circle of black material appeared around the ancient city, according to that distance, it should be the moat of the ancient city, but I don't know what to do, now the moat is not water but black substance, according to my experience, eighty percent is swamp!

But since there is a moat, there will definitely be a bridge for people to pass, whether it is a suspension bridge, a pontoon bridge, or a stone bridge, there will always be one or two.

But when I looked at the surroundings of the gate, I didn't find a passable bridge, and I couldn't help but wonder why there was no bridge with such a wide moat. Could it be that the ancients flew in?

Thinking of this, I carefully observed the gate of this ancient city, and saw two tall stone sculptures appear on both sides of the gate.

The general gate of the ancient city, most of them are not stone carvings, only the door of some ancient houses will appear stone carvings, and most of them appear in the form of lions and beasts, even if there will be stone carvings at the gate of the ancient city, it is mostly a stone drum and the like, but now these two stone sculptures are creatures I don't know at all, snake head, tiger body, eagle claws, sitting on a huge stone ball, looking ahead, looking very mighty.

I put down my binoculars and asked Wang Chuyi, "Have you ever seen that kind of stone carving?" ”

She shook her head to indicate that she hadn't seen it, then turned around and picked up her backpack and said, "Ordinary dynasties would never have such strange stone carvings, unless this dynasty is more superstitious about witchcraft and other evil spells. ”

Wang Chuyi is telling the truth, and I can't think of a better explanation than this possibility.

I saw that she had already put the backpack on her back, so I also put away the binoculars, put up the backpack and followed her on, although we saw that the ancient city was not too far away from us on the hillside, but if we really walked, it would really not be able to reach the place for a while, just like the old man said, the reason for running a dead horse in Wangshan is almost the same.

The closer the forest got to the ancient city, the more sparse the vegetation became, and at last there were only some low bushes, and the trees were completely gone.

At this moment, I felt that my neck was very itchy, so I instinctively grabbed it with my hand, and this scratch, I grabbed a lump of something, and pinched me to death with a hard squeeze on my hand, this feeling was quite bad, slimy, I felt bad, and pinched this thing out of my neck with my fingers. When I looked down, I suddenly felt a hair in my heart, and hurriedly threw that thing on the ground, it turned out to be a fat centipede!

It's just that the body is covered with a small flagella, and the position of the head, there are two very eye-catching green spots, although the general outline is very similar to a centipede, but the reminder fat is indeed like a silkworm chrysalis, after I pinched this insect to death, my hands are full of a kind of green mucus, it looks very disgusting, I am afraid that this mucus is poisonous, so I quickly rinsed the mucus on my hands with disinfectant.
