Chapter 5 Thousand Towns
1
Han Jiang sped up the speed of the car, he hoped to rush to Qianhu Town before dark, but no one knew what else would happen along the way, Tang Feng took out the letter left by Misha, wanting to get some clues from it, "Misha recalled some experiences after the scientific expedition team entered the desert in the second part of the letter, and the experience in Jiulipu and Wolf Valley, Mi Sha almost brushed it aside, and didn't say much, only said that he camped near Wolf Depression on the first night, everything was normal, and then he recalled some interactions with Old Man Liang, In his letter, he did not mention the horse nails, the horse pits, or the wolves. ”
"This shows that the scientific expedition team is still relatively smooth at this stage." Han Jiang Road.
However, for Qianhu Town, Misha spoke separately...... Liang, you may not have much impression of the place called Qianhu Town, when the scientific expedition team arrived at Qianhu Town, the superiors ordered us not to go in, camping outside, but after dark, I still can't hide my curiosity, I entered this uninhabited town alone, I still can't forget that terrible night, and I still can't solve many puzzles of that town, the next day (in fact, it's the third day), I suggested to my superiors that I want to enter Qianhu Town for inspection, but I was rejected by the leaders, and they also criticized me, I don't think you slept well that night, and everyone seems to be scared, terrified of that little town that is deserted. Tang Feng slowly read Misha's letter.
"That's all?" Han Jiang asked rhetorically.
"Well, that's all, it seems that Qianhu Town is a place that makes Misha afraid, and everyone is afraid, so the scientific expedition team didn't dare to enter Qianhu Town." Tang Feng Road.
"Hmph, this may be Misha's own speculation, maybe the scientific expedition team is trying to find Hanhai Mi City as soon as possible, so they didn't enter Qianhu Town."
Anyway, Misha went in and said it was a horrible night for him.
"Nonsense, whoever runs into a deserted town at night will be afraid!" Han Jiang joked.
"Did you notice that sentence in parentheses?" Tang Feng stared at Misha's letter and suddenly asked.
"You mean the phrase 'it's actually the third day'?" Han Jiang paused for a moment and deduced: "It shows that Misha did not suggest to his superiors to inspect Qianhu Town at that time, but only made a suggestion to his superiors after a day. ”
"Do you think that's reasonable? Why didn't Misha make a suggestion right away? Why did the expedition team stay outside Qianhu Town the next day and not move on? Tang Feng stared at Han Jiang and pursed his dry lips.
Han Jiang pondered for a moment, his eyes suddenly widened, he was just about to speak, Tang Feng continued: "There can only be a reasonable explanation, that night, including the whole day of the next day, Misha was trapped in Qianhu Town, so Misha was so afraid of Qianhu Town, so the scientific expedition team stayed outside Qianhu Town for a day the next day, so Misha said, 'Actually, it's the third day'!" ”
The more Tang Feng spoke, the more excited he became, and Han Jiang also felt a cool breath rise behind him, "Yes...... What trapped Misha in Sennohe? Could it be that this is an ecstasy! ”
"Ecstasy?!" Tang Feng muttered to himself.
"Then the next day, the expedition team should also send someone into the town to look for Misha, right?" Liang Yuan said suddenly.
Tang Feng was taken aback, "Yes, I think the expedition team should have sent people to search for Misha near the town and in the town during the day the next day, but they definitely didn't find it!" ”
"Little town, where can Misha hide?" Han Jiang wondered.
"Isn't it where he's hiding? It's Misha who is trapped in Senhe Town! It must be so. Tang Feng said categorically.
"I don't know what kind of no-man's town this town is. It's so mysterious! Liang Yuan sighed.
"You'll see you soon!"
After Han Jiang finished speaking, there was another tall sand dune in front of him, Han Jiang did not slow down, and rushed straight to the sand dune, but after Han Jiang drove the donkey over the sand dune, he was dumbfounded, and a deep ditch appeared behind the dune. Han Jiang hurriedly slowed down, but it was too late, and the donkey planted itself into the deep ditch.
Tang Feng and Liang Yuan both screamed, and Han Jiang wanted to scream, but he held back, fortunately Han Jiang had many years of driving experience as a special soldier, and the donkey rushed to the bottom of the ditch, but finally did not overturn, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan jumped out of the car, vomited for a while, and Han Jiang also felt that his stomach was turning over and over, and he was nauseous.
Han Jiang jumped out of the car, patted the car cover and scolded, "Damn, those two cars in front are really stupid, I just planted them with that rut mark." ”
"Don't scream, I don't know there's a deep ditch here when I look at those two cars." Tang Feng stumbled back and looked, the sand dunes behind him pressed straight on top of their heads, like a strong city wall, and this deep ditch was like a moat under the city wall, but where did the city wall come from in the desert? Even if there were a wall, the dust storms and yellow sand of the Badain Jaran Desert would soon bury any once glorious building.
Tang Feng observed for a while and said to Han Jiang: "This is not a naturally formed deep ditch. ”
"You're crazy, you're saying it's dug by hand? Who's going to dig this in the desert? Han Jiang didn't believe it.
"Look at the sand dunes behind us, although they have collapsed due to centuries of wind and sand erosion, I still found traces of reeds in the dunes." Tang Feng pointed to some black matter looming in the sand dunes behind him.
"Reeds? Is there a water source nearby? Han Jiang sensitively thought of the water source.
"A few hundred years ago, there were probably blisters with reeds on the sides of the blisters, and the builders of this trench used reeds to mix in the sand to prevent the sand from being blown away by the strong winds." Tang Feng explained.
Han Jiang and Liang Yuan also found traces of reeds in the sand dunes in different locations, and Tang Feng continued, "Judging from the position and direction of the trench, this trench is of the same nature as the ambush circle near the wolf depression, and it was built to deal with the enemy from the northwest. ”
"It seems that everything is to prevent a strong enemy from the northwest, but it can't explain the appearance of the Baspawen in the horse pit! It's incredible. Han Jiang shook his head.
"Fortunately, after years of strong winds, this trench is not very deep now, otherwise we would be trapped here today." Tang Feng pointed to a gentle slope that appeared in front of him and said, "Look, someone has already opened the way for us." ”
Han Jiang also found a gentle slope in front of the left, "This gentle slope is completely pressed out by the car, which means that the two cars in front of it were also planted and walked from here." ”
The three of them got back into the car, rushed out of the trench along the gentle slope that had been pressed out, followed the rut marks on the sand, and continued to drive towards Qianhu Town.
2
The two parallel intertwined rut marks stretched all the way to the northwest, Tang Feng looked nervously out of the car window, and from the few words left by Misha, Tang Feng had already drawn a terrifying picture of Qianhu Town in his mind - a deserted town, without a person, not even any life, a howling wind, and a street that made people lose ...... However, when Qianhu Town really came into Tang Feng's eyes, Tang Feng was still a little surprised.
The undulating sand dunes that had been rolling just now were gone at this moment, and they sailed into a Gobi desert, and the sand mountains in the distance seemed to be very close, but Tang Feng knew that it was actually far away from them. Tang Feng saw that at the end of the endless horizon, there was a patchwork of loess buildings of varying heights, which was Qianhu Town?!
The vast earth, silent, the sun is setting, Tang Feng can't help but think a lot, but at this moment, the car stopped, "Why stopped, Qianhu Town is in front, I saw it!" Tang Feng asked Han Jiang.
Han Jiang didn't pay attention to it, he turned on the headlights of the donkey, lay on the steering wheel, and observed for a long time before he said slowly: "Those two rut marks have all disappeared." ”
Tang Feng noticed that sure enough, there was no trace of the two rut marks on the gravel road that was heading straight to Qianhu Town in front. The three of them got out of the car and probed forward twenty or thirty meters away, but they didn't see any rut marks, this vast land that remained unchanged through the ages was so quiet that Tang Feng felt as if he had come to an alien planet!
There are no rut marks that have always appeared, and there are no traces of people and animals, and it seems that no one has ever stepped here, no! It can't be that no one comes in! Tang Feng thought of this, and went back to look for the two rut marks, but they walked nearly a hundred meters along the road, and there were still no traces of the two rut marks. Tang Feng couldn't help but complain to Han Jianglai, "Didn't you keep staring at those two rut prints?" ”
"I'm driving so fast, who knows where those two rut marks went? Five minutes ago, I could still see the rut marks on the observation road, but in the blink of an eye, the rut marks were gone. Han Jiang argued.
"Then let's reverse and go back and look for it?" Liang Yuan proposed.
"Nope! No need, Qianhu Town has already seen it, let's not care about those two cars. Tang Feng thought for a moment and said categorically.
"Yes...... However, Misha's letter said that the town of Senhu was terrible, and it was ...... Especially at night......" Liang Yuan hesitated.
"What do you see?" Tang Feng turned to Han Jiang.
"Go ahead before it gets dark, we can camp outside the town tonight, and we'll make a decision tomorrow morning whether we enter the town or not." Han Jiang said.
Tang Feng nodded, so the three of them got back into the car and drove in the direction of Qianhu Town, there were no rut marks, and soon, even the traces of the gravel road were gone, and Tang Feng and they drove completely on the vast Gobi Desert.
3
The distance to Qianhu Town was completely beyond Tang Feng's prediction, originally Qianhu Town was already in front of them, but they drove for half an hour and still did not arrive.
"It's just ahead, why haven't you arrived yet?" Tang Feng muttered to himself.
"Don't be in a hurry." Han Jiang said not to be anxious, but he sped up the car.
Tang Feng looked out the window with anxiety, it was completely dark on the Gobi Desert, this was their first night in the desert, Tang Feng had never experienced a night in the desert, he didn't know what would await him tonight?
Just when Tang Feng was thinking nonsense, Han Jiang braked suddenly, and stopped the car again, Tang Feng was startled, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Han Jiang looked back, and then reversed backwards violently, Han Jiang stared intently at the rearview mirror, reversed more than ten meters away, stopped, Han Jiang pouted on the Gobi Desert on the right side of the car, "Oh, look at what it is?" ”
Tang Feng looked suspiciously in the direction of Han Jiangnu's mouth, and a dark shadow suddenly appeared on the desolate Gobi Desert, "What is that?" Tang Feng was shocked.
"You go down and have a look." Han Jiang threw Tang Feng a flashlight.
"You're not going down?" Tang Feng was a little scared.
"Huh, scared?" Han Jiang smiled contemptuously.
"Lend me your dagger!"
"Forget it, let's all go down, look at your cowardice!"
"I'm cowardly, I don't want to sacrifice senselessly!"
After Tang Feng finished speaking, he had to jump out of the car, he slowly, step by step, approached the black shadow, the black Gobi Desert, Tang Feng's heart beat wildly, he was already very close to the black shadow, the black shadow was motionless, it was definitely not a person, and it would not be an animal...... Tang Feng stopped and looked back hesitantly, he saw Han Jiang and Liang Yuan also jumping out of the car and walking towards this side, so he settled down and continued to walk forward. Finally, seven or eight steps away from the black shadow, Tang Feng stopped, he stared at the black shadow in front of him, it seemed to be a boulder, quite regular, but how could a regular boulder suddenly appear on the desolate Gobi Desert?
Tang Feng mustered up his courage and pushed away the flashlight, and a strong light hit the black shadow, "Sure enough, it's a boulder!" Tang Feng couldn't help but gasp, on this desolate Gobi Desert, there was such a neat boulder!
Tang Feng took two steps forward, he saw that this boulder was actually a huge stele, he went around to the front of the stele, and shone it on the stele with a flashlight, which was densely engraved with some words, and then looked up, the upper part of the stele seemed to have been struck by lightning, and it was broken diagonally, Tang Feng shone it with a flashlight and shone around, and did not see the broken stele above, only the remnants of the stele in the lower part still stood on the desolate Gobi Desert, Tang Feng waved his hand at Han Jiang and Liang Yuan behind him, and shouted: "It's a remnant stele!" ”
Han Jiang and Liang Yuan soon rushed to the remnant of the monument, Tang Feng had already begun to recognize the words on it, but when Tang Feng saw this inscription, his brows tightened, and Han Jiang urged for a long time, "Hurry up, is it Xixia script?" ”
Tang Feng shook his head, "No, it's not the Western Xia script, it's still the Yuan Dynasty's Ba Si Pa Wen." ”
"It's over, I really doubt that Misha and the others took the right route back then, why are all the ruins left along the way from the Yuan Dynasty?" Han Jiang was a little annoyed.
"Do you know Phagspawen?" Liang Yuan asked.
"The Paspa text is actually not difficult, although I have not studied it systematically, but I can recognize some of it, I looked at this inscription, this is a 'forbidden monument'."
"The Forbidden Monument?" Han Jiang and Liang Yuan looked at the remnant monument in front of them suspiciously.

Tang Feng pointed to the inscription on the remnant stele and explained in detail: "The full name of this stele is "Kublai Khan's Forbidden Monument to the Army and the People." The general meaning of the inscription is to warn the military and civilians in the tone of Kublai Khan, that there is a group of devils living in the desert Gobi in front of them, and they have repeatedly harmed the soldiers and civilians stationed here. The final payment was made by the Governor's Office of the Governor of Yiji Nailu. ”
"Yiji Nailu Governor's Mansion?"
"Well, you've all heard of Blackwater, right?"
"It's the ancient city of Western Xia that Koznov discovered."
"Yes, according to the historical materials we have now, Heishui City was the largest city within a radius of hundreds of miles, so after Genghis Khan occupied Heishui City, he set up a governor's office there to manage this vast area. Tang Feng explained.
"It's supposed to be a serious inscription, but I think the inscription on this tablet is funny! Where's the devil? The Great Khan actually wrote these on the inscription. Han Jiang crossed his waist and looked at the remnant monument in front of him and said.
"I don't think there's anything funny about this inscription, it just reveals important information." Tang Feng seemed to have thought of something.
"Oh! What do you see? ”
"Doesn't this inscription explain the ruins we found earlier?! We have always been puzzled why the fortifications we found along the way have left the remains of the Mongols, but not the remains of the Dangxiang people as we expected, this inscription shows that the Mongols were very afraid of those devils in the desert, so they erected this monument, forbidding the entry of soldiers and civilians, etc., and also arranged fortifications along the route. Tang Feng speculated.
"But I just can't figure out what the Mongol Iron Cavalry will be afraid of when it sweeps across Eurasia?" Han Jiang was puzzled.
"Devil! Hehe. Liang Yuan said with a smile.
"I'm also puzzled." Tang Feng groaned, and suddenly, Tang Feng's eyes lit up, "Could it be the 'person who has returned to the country?'" ’”
"What?" Han Jiang didn't understand.
Tang Feng was just about to say something, but Liang Yuan suddenly shouted behind the remnant monument, "Let's go quickly, it seems that the wind is blowing." ”
There was a sudden gust of wind on the Gobi Desert, the wind swept the sand and gravel, whistling from the northwest, Tang Feng and Han Jiang were instantly blinded by the fine sand, Tang Feng wanted to protect Liang Yuan and run back to the car, but Han Jiang shouted to stop them, "Don't go back yet, hide on the side of the monument." ”
Tang Feng reacted at this time, escorted Liang Yuan to the front of the monument, the three of them squatted, leaning on the remnant monument tightly, the wind was getting stronger and stronger, Tang Feng saw the horror of the desert for the first time, he tried to open his eyes, looked at the car parked not far away, fortunately there is this stone monument, if you run to the car, I don't know where it will be blown by the wind at this time.
"How...... How could there be a sudden gust of wind?! Tang Feng shouted loudly.
"Because you mentioned the devil!" Han Jiang joked.
Tang Feng looked up at the stele beside him, the heavy stele was squeaked by the wind at this moment, and he began to doubt whether this stele could withstand the sudden gust of wind.
"I understand why this monument is broken!" Tang Feng shouted again.
"You mean the wind?"
"Who else but the wind? This wind is the terrible devil! Tang Feng shouted.
"Alright, you save your energy!"
"No, also, the inscription on this stele rushes to the southeast, indicating that the strong winds in this area are blowing from the northwest, otherwise, the inscription on the remnant stele would have been unclear for a long time."
"I hope this remnant will help us get through this!" Han Jiang Road.
"May Kublai Khan help us through this!" Tang Feng muttered.
As soon as Tang Feng's voice fell, the wind on the Gobi Desert gradually decreased, Han Jiang observed the situation and ordered: "Quick, return to the car while the wind is light." ”
The three of them ran away until they got back in the car, and then they were a little relieved.

Liang Yuan gasped and asked, "What should we do now?" Are you going to Senhu Town tonight? ”
Tang Feng looked at Qianhu Town, which was already shrouded in darkness in front of him, and then looked at Han Jiang, who was waiting for Han Jiang to come up with an idea. Han Jiang quickly thought about the current situation, "I don't want to enter that uninhabited ghost town at night, but you see that on the Gobi Desert, there is not even a place to camp, and if there is such a strong wind, we will all be blown away." ”
There was silence in the carriage, and everyone was faced with a dilemma, and in the end, Han Jiang finally made up his mind, "Keep going, at least find a sheltered place to camp." ”
Han Jiang drove very slowly, he was observing the situation outside the window, Qianhu Town was getting closer and closer, Tang Feng could already see the silent black shadow, and his heart hung in the air.
"It's a big piece!" Liang Yuan exclaimed.
"What's that?" Han Jiang suddenly pointed to a dark mound of dirt outside the window and asked.
Tang Feng shone it with a flashlight, and suddenly, a hideous-looking skeleton came into view, Tang Feng's hand trembled, and the flashlight almost fell, Han Jiang and Liang Yuan also saw the skeleton, Han Jiang slowly parked the car, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan two flashlights together towards the mound, Liang Yuan couldn't help screaming, "Ah-all skeletons!" ”
Under the illumination of the flashlight, Tang Feng saw that the mound was completely made of neatly stacked rows of skeletons, Tang Feng stared at the skeletons in front of him in a daze, and suddenly, Han Jiang slapped Tang Feng's shoulder, "What is this?" It's annoying that so many skeletons are popping up before you even enter town. ”
Tang Feng was taken aback by Han Jiang, and after a long while, he muttered from his mouth, "This...... This is Kyokan. ”
"Jingguan?" Han Jiang and Liang Yuan were shocked.
"In ancient times, in order to show off their martial arts and deter their opponents, the victorious side built the corpses of the enemy's fallen soldiers with earth barriers and built high mounds on both sides of the road, which is called 'Jingguan'." Tang Feng explained.
"It's so cruel." Liang Yuan exclaimed.
"Yes, Jingguan is very cruel, so it was not commonly used in ancient times, and only the most heinous enemies will be built into Jingguan. I don't know why these people who were built into Jingguan made their opponents hate them so much that they could not be buried in the earth after death, but were built into Jingguan! Tang Feng sighed.
"Those devils that the Mongols call them!" Liang Yuan said.
Tang Feng didn't say anything more, a gust of wind blew, Tang Feng shuddered, but unexpectedly, Han Jiang said, "Let's camp here tonight!" ”
"What? Let's accompany these lonely ghosts tonight? Tang Feng and Liang Yuan both shouted.
"I don't want to accompany these lonely ghosts, but if you go any further, you will enter Qianhu Town! Do you dare to go in tonight? ”
Tang Feng looked at Qianhu Town not far away, it was pitch black, there was no light, there was no sound, an eerie feeling enveloped the entire town, Liang Yuan shouted, "Then there is no need to camp here!" ”
"This is the only place that can block the wind except for Qianhu Town, if you don't want to be buried in the sand tomorrow morning, just this way, this is it, I can't guarantee that I can stop the stronger sandstorm!" Han Jiang said angrily.
Tang Feng looked around, there was indeed no better place to block the wind, and finally, Tang Feng gritted his teeth, "Then here, it's better here than rashly entering Qianhu Town at night." Aren't they just some skeletons? We've seen a lot. ”
"Yes! It's not the first time. Liang Yuan heard Tang Feng say this, and he also had the courage.
"Then here it is." Han Jiang parked the car in the north of Jingguan, and formed a relatively closed space with Jingguan, Tang Feng set up a tent next to Jingguan, and while setting up a tent, Tang Feng said something in his mouth, "What are you muttering?" Han Jiang asked.
"I'm chanting scriptures to give these souls who can't go to the ground after death." Tang Feng squeezed out a wry smile.
"I don't see it, you still chant the scriptures? I think you should leave these dead people alone, and give us a few more chanting scriptures to bless us with peace. Han Jiang joked.
"I will only recite the sutra of transcending the souls of the dead, not the sutra of blessing the living." Tang Feng smiled bitterly.
"I will, I will recite the Sutra of blessing the living." Liang Yuan suddenly shouted.
"Will you?" Han Jiang and Tang Feng both looked at Liang Yuan in surprise.
Liang Yuan then sat cross-legged under the surprised gaze of Tang Feng and Han Jiang, and recited the scriptures in a matter-of-fact manner, Tang Feng wanted to interrupt Liang Yuan several times, but was blocked back by Liang Yuan's continuous chanting.
It wasn't until Liang Yuan finished reading that Tang Feng asked, "What scripture are you reading?" How come I've never heard of it? ”
"Of course you haven't heard of it, it was an old monk who taught me, saying that it can bless me from evil to good fortune, hehe." Liang Yuan said with a smile.
"Okay, don't recite any scriptures, I never believe in this, I just believe that things are man-made." Han Jiang interrupted Liang Yuan and Tang Feng's religious exchange.
6
Tang Feng set up the tent, Han Jiang insisted that Tang Feng and Liang Yuan sleep in the tent, and slept in the car, Tang Feng was a little embarrassed, but he had to listen to Han Jiang, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan were lying in the tent, the wind outside was like a burst, Liang Yuan felt a headache, and he had been lying down for an hour, and he didn't fall asleep, Tang Feng had to hug Liang Yuan, strange to say, Liang Yuan quickly entered the dream.
In the early hours of the morning, there was a gust of wind on the desolate Gobi Desert, this was a real sandstorm, the wind mixed with sand and gravel violently tore Tang Feng and Liang Yuan's tent, Tang Feng opened his eyes suddenly, he pricked up his ears, and listened for a while, no, this is not a nightmare, nightmares will not be so clear, Tang Feng sat up suddenly, and also woke Liang Yuan, "Sandstorm!" Tang Feng exclaimed.
Tang Feng and Liang Yuan's fragile tent was blown by the dust storm and swayed uncontrollably, and when Tang Feng was still hesitating, Han Jiang's voice came from outside the tent, "Tang Feng, hurry up, the sandstorm is coming, this tent may not be able to support it." ”
Tang Feng was full of excitement, opened the tent, and ran out of the tent with Liang Yuan, who couldn't stop screaming...... Han Jiang pulled Tang Feng and Liang Yuan under the car to look at the tent again, and they were instantly swept into the sandstorm by the wind and disappeared.
Tang Feng was afraid for a while, in addition to the howling of the wind in his ears, there were bursts of terrifying sounds, he squinted his eyes and looked at the Jingguan not far away, and a terrifying scene appeared to him - he saw that the skeletons and bones that were originally tamped in the Jingguan could not withstand the attack of the sandstorm, and the skeletons seemed to have life again, screaming in pain with hideous faces, the wind tore at the hideous faces, and suddenly, those faces were torn open by the wind and gravel, flesh and blood flew sideways, and the pain was deformed, finally disappeared in front of Tang Feng.
Some skeletons on the periphery of Jingguan were blown away in the night by this dust storm, and suddenly, a skull was swept up by the wind and smashed towards Liang Yuan, Tang Feng hugged Liang Yuan tightly, and the skeleton smashed heavily on the body of the car, and smashed the sturdy donkey out of a pit, and then, the skeleton was swept up into the dark night sky by a gust of wind, and disappeared without a trace.
Liang Yuan kept screaming and crying, Tang Feng could only hug Liang Yuan tightly, but the sandstorm did not stop at all, when Tang Feng was a little smaller, he opened his eyes and looked at his watch, it was almost dawn, he turned to ask Han Jiang loudly, "Is this ...... The wind seems to have stopped...... Can't stop, I ...... What are we going to do? ”
", this should ...... Damn the wind, I ...... I think if it goes on like this, let's ...... Our donkey can't bear it, so it's just ...... There is only one way......" Han Jiang said intermittently.
"What ......"
"Enter Thousand Households!" Han Jiang said categorically.
"Now?" I don't know if it was blown by the wind, or because he heard that he was going to enter Qianhu Town, Tang Feng's voice trembled a little.
"Nonsense, right now."
After Han Jiang finished speaking, Tang Feng felt a more violent wind coming towards them, and immediately after, he heard the sound of glass breaking, and the colorful donkey that was protecting them began to shake violently, he knew that if it continued like this, the donkey would not be able to protect them. They may have been swept up into the sky by a sandstorm with the donkey.
At this moment, Tang Feng began to understand why Han Jiang said that the donkey would never go back, and it was time to make up his mind, Tang Feng shouted at Han Jiang, "Okay, just listen to you." ”
Saying that, Tang Feng opened the rear car door and got into it with Liang Yuan, Han Jiang jumped into the cab, the wind became more and more violent, even if the weight of three people was added, the donkey was still trembling in the wind, Tang Feng found that the window on the left side of the car had been cracked, and he couldn't help but panic, and shouted at Han Jiang: "Hurry, drive quickly!" ”
Han Jiang started the car for a long time, but he couldn't start it, Han Jiang said something in his mouth, "Baby, donkey, dear, you are moving!" ”
In normal times, Tang Feng would definitely laugh when he heard Han Jiang being so numb, but at this moment, he couldn't laugh, so he listened to Han Jiang still fiddling with it there, "My baby, you give me some face and move for me!" ”
The donkey still didn't move, and Tang Feng became anxious, "Is it the sand and gravel that blocked the exhaust pipe?" ”
Han Jiang ignored Tang Feng and continued to be numb to the donkey, "My dear, baby, cute donkey, move!" Damn, Lao Tzu's life is in your hands, you can't see death without help! Damn, give it to Lao Tzu—"
Han Jiang's last word dragged on for a long time, strange to say, Han Jiang's scolding, the donkey really moved, "This cheap donkey, if I scold it, it will move!" ”
Han Jiang slammed the steering wheel, facing the wind and countless sand, and rushed straight towards the dark Qianhu Town.
7
The wind swept countless pieces of sand and gravel on the windshield of the donkey, but fortunately, the donkey was still strong, and he took the three of them to break through the encirclement, Han Jiang drove the donkey around Jingguan for a circle, and then rushed to Qianhu Town.
Han Jiang saw that there was a rammed earth wall in front of him, and the car could rush directly to it, but he didn't know what was behind the low wall, if it was ...... Han Jiang didn't dare to think about it, he had to make a quick decision, because he was already very close to the low wall, and if he wanted to rush over, he had to speed up at this moment, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan also saw the low wall in front of them, and before Tang Feng and Liang Yuan could react, they heard Han Jiang say, "Sit tight!" ”
Han Jiang had already made up his mind, he accelerated violently, and rushed towards the low wall, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan closed their eyes, not daring to look forward, Han Jiang drove the donkey into the air and jumped over the low wall, God, Jesus, Buddha, the Virgin Mary blessed, behind the low wall is a flat land, the donkey fell heavily on this flat land, everything was silent, the wind was howling outside, but it was so quiet here, the dark and lightless buildings in Qianhu Town blocked the wind and the dust storm.
Han Jiang let out a sigh of relief and lay on the steering wheel, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan hugged each other tightly, and after a long time, they knew that they had returned to the world.
Han Jiang slowly drove the car into Qianhu Town, a fairly wide street stretched into the town, along the way, the three people who had just escaped the danger entered another tense atmosphere, they didn't know if there was a new danger hidden in these dark buildings?
Following the road in front of him, the donkey came to a square, Han Jiang stopped the car, and was about to get out of the car, but was dragged by Tang Feng, "It's dangerous now, it's better to wait for dawn and then go down to check." ”
"Dawn?" Han Jiang rolled his eyes and looked at the sky, "It will take at least an hour until dawn, and you let us stay here like this?" ”
"We can go down these streets first." As he spoke, Tang Feng pointed to the other three streets around the square that they hadn't walked yet.
"Well, I'll just listen to you. Which one do we go first? Han Jiang looked around at the three dark streets.
Tang Feng also stared at the three dark streets, looked at them for a long time, and then said: "The whole town is divided into different areas by an east-west and a north-south street, and the street we entered the town just now is slightly biased to the southeast, which should be East Street; The street we are now facing is West Street, which is northwest-skewed, if I estimate correctly; The street on our right is North Street, and the street on our left should be South Street. Let's go through South Avenue first, then West Street, and finally North Avenue in clockwise order. ”
Han Jiang nodded, started the donkey, and slowly drove towards South Street, South Street is very short, and soon, they came to the end of the road, in front of them was a wall that was not high, Han Jiang jumped out of the car, this time Tang Feng not only did not stop Han Jiang, he also jumped out of the car, and the two came to the front of the wall, "This is a rammed earth wall built by artificial masonry." Tang Feng judged.
"This town has walls too?" Han Jianghu suspiciously kicked the rammed earth wall in front of him, the rammed earth wall was still hard and abnormally hard after hundreds of years of wind and rain.
"Don't forget that this is also a military fortress." Tang Feng reminded Han Jiang.
"Then the low wall we jumped over on East Street is also a city wall?"
"I think these walls should have been much taller than the ones we see today, but they have been ...... for hundreds of years."
"But if there are walls, what about the gates?" Han Jiang interrupted Tang Feng's words and suddenly asked.
Tang Feng was also suspicious, yes! There should have been a gate, but there was no gate in sight of the wall in front of me. Tang Feng began to look for it on the city wall, "According to the ancient Chinese tradition, even if this city has only one gate, it should appear in the south. ”
Tang Feng pushed away the flashlight and looked for it on the rammed earth wall, suddenly, a hideous face appeared in front of Tang Feng's eyes, Tang Feng was so shocked that he took a few steps back before he stood firm, Han Jiang held Tang Feng, and the two of them shone at the hideous face together, with the slow movement of the flashlight, Tang Feng and Han Jiang's mouths both opened wide, "Ah-it's a dry corpse!" Tang Feng cried out in a lost voice.
"There are even dried corpses here!" Han Jiang, who has been a great enemy for a long time, also felt that his scalp was numb for a while.
At this time, there was already a glimmer of light in the sky, a well-preserved dried corpse, leaning against the base of the rammed earth wall, with a slightly raised head and a grinning face, staring at Tang Feng and Han Jiang uprightly.
