The stiff backs of Wu Zi and Chen Lao caused uneasiness in Da Lei's heart, and he subconsciously grabbed Xiaohai and Ganu with his left and right hands, thinking in his heart whether to step forward and ask or wait and see.

"Brother, why don't we go over and have a look?" Xiao Hai asked.

After a while, seeing that Da Lei still didn't speak, Xiao Hai said again: "We can't go back now." ”

After speaking, he turned his head to look at the endless landslide behind him, swallowed his saliva, and continued: "There is no other way but to move forward, or I will call them ...... first."

"You stay here with Ganu, I'll take a look." Da Lei interrupted Xiao Hai, and before he could speak, he had already walked over in an arrow step.

I saw that after Da Lei walked over, he also froze there like a wooden man, motionless.

How to describe it?

In front of me, under the high slope, there is a huge flat sandy field.

On the earth where the yellow sand accumulates, there are hundreds of wooden stakes, although they are of different sizes, but the roots are straight and thick, surrounded by circles, neatly arranged, a total of seven layers, surrounded into a huge ring. In the middle is a hollow, which looks like a sun from a high place, and the wooden stakes arranged around it in circles are like the light radiating from it! Especially in the glittering desert, it is like a huge shining sun.

"The sun that grows on the earth."

Da Lei suddenly reflected this sentence in his mind.

Those dark brown wooden stakes, tempered by the reflection of sunlight and wind and sand all the year round, have become smooth, especially when viewed from a distance, it is even more shining. Hundreds of roots gathered together, flickering points of light criss-crossed, in the endless earth yellow, particularly dazzling, is an indescribable beauty.

"Yes, yes, yes!!" Canu's high-pitched voice suddenly sounded behind him, interrupting the servant who was still in shock.

Da Lei turned around, only to see Ganu jumping and stretching out his hand, pointing to the "sun" under his feet and nodding constantly.

"Canu." Da Lei squatted down and asked, "The place you talked about before is here?" ”

"Uh-huh!!"

Da Lei was paralyzed and sat on the ground, unable to tell what the expression on his face was.

Sure enough, I can't expect too much, and the disappointment at the moment is like a knife that keeps stabbing at the tip of the heart.

It's going from one hell place to another!

"Sure enough..."Old Chen came back to his senses and couldn't stop muttering, "What is recorded in the book is correct...... Only... This is it!

"Old Chen, do you know this place?" Xiao Hai was obviously shocked by the scene in front of him, even if he asked Chen Lao, his eyes were staring straight at his feet.

Chen Lao said: "According to records, at the end of Loulan, there were frequent wars, and the people were struggling to make a living, and many noble sons of the royal family were sent to the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu as hostages, just to keep peace for a few years. But during this period, the Tailou Lan Kingdom suddenly disappeared. ”

"Suddenly gone?" Xiao Hai finally withdrew his gaze from the strange scene under his feet, looked at Chen Lao and asked.

"Yes, but that's not the weirdest thing. The strangest thing is that before it disappeared, the king suddenly ordered the construction of two mausoleums. And the mausoleums are connected but not adjacent, and it is said that they were prepared for the two princesses in the palace, and the important thing is that the two princesses were not dead at that time. ”

"Huh?" Xiao Hai's mouth opened widely: "That means that the kingdom built a mausoleum for the two princesses in advance...??" How can there be such a father, how unlucky. ”

"In other words, it was the kingdom that built two mausoleums to worship the gods of heaven and prison, and then made the two daughters sacrificed." Wu Zi, who opened his mouth this time, said: "Actually, Brother Han came here to find and investigate those two tombs. There are not many records and information about these two tombs, but as long as there are clues, the spearhead is pointed to the Peacock River. It is also easy to understand that the Peacock River is a thousand-year-old river in the desert, and it is also the 'Earth God River' in the ancient Western Regions. Moreover, the river that flows with it was once called "holy water that washes away sins." It grows on the earth and is closest to hell. So before I came, I, my uncle, and Brother Chen guessed that the tomb of the princess, which means curse, is here. ”

"Then since you have found so much information and made so many guesses, do you know where the tomb of the auspicious princess is buried? Doesn't it mean that the two tombs are connected but not adjacent? Xiaohai Yu Dalei glanced at each other and asked.

"Alas......" Wu Zi shook his head: "I have no clue, before we came, we planned to do a thorough study of the terrain and environment here, and lock on a general goal before coming." As a result, Brother Chen suddenly left with his sister-in-law, and it was a few months after leaving, and I was worried about my uncle, so I came over first. ”

That's it... Da Lei breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

But the tomb has collapsed, and I guess they won't be able to see anything if they really go.

"But why is this tomb in the shape of the sun?" Da Lei is most curious about this.

"Well..."Chen Lao thought for a while and said, "This is just my personal speculation. is the so-called yin and yang poles, yin is not better than yang. The shape of this sun is equivalent to a seal, and although this tomb is dedicated to the god of hell, after all, the god was the largest in ancient times. ”

"How's it going, brother, are your legs better?" Wu Zi glanced at Xiao Hai's leg and asked.

"It's been fine for a long time." Xiao Hai took off the manbai on his leg, and sure enough, there was nothing to see on his leg.

"Then let's go down first. It will be dark in a moment. After speaking, Wu Zi strode forward.

Xiao Hai and Da Lei glanced at each other and followed silently.

The downhill is always faster than the uphill.

It didn't take long for the effort to come down.

At this moment, the huge sun is in front of their eyes, one by one, like a labyrinth.

Wu Zi looked up at the already foggy sky, took out two flashlights from his backpack, handed one to Da Lei, and said, "Your brother should use one first, the battery has been exhausted several times during this time, we have to save it." ”

Da Lei took it and thanked him, and then whispered to Xiao Haiganu: "You two have to follow me, be careful of losing the ghost food!" ”

"Phew!" Xiao Hai glanced at Da Lei, then grabbed Da Lei's arm tightly, and said to Ganu: "Don't listen to his nonsense, just follow closely." ”

Ganu didn't seem to understand what Da Lei said, he just nodded heavily, and then smiled as happily as a flower.

Da Lei felt even more sad after laughing ignorant and ignorant at Ganu. This stupid kid thought that this was the so-called outside world, but he didn't know which ghost gate he brought them to.

The night was dark, like ink.

Several people shone back and forth with bright flashlights, and every step was extremely cautious. As the saying goes: the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. Now that they are in it, they don't seem to be standing on the top of the "Golden Horn" and looking at the bottom clearly, and they are afraid that one of them will get lost and can't get out.

Chen Lao and Wu Zi know a lot, so they walk in front, Da Lei and they follow behind, and Canu is playful, often stopping in front of a certain wooden stake and not leaving, staring at the ancient patterns carved on it, so that Da Lei always walks a few steps to come back to him, almost unable to keep up with Wu Zi and them.

"Brother." Xiaohai asked softly: "They are here to find someone to investigate, we are here to go out." As the saying goes, the Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, and as soon as the sun comes out tomorrow morning, we will disperse. ”

"I'm the same as you think. Besides, these two people are also playing with us, so they should have dispersed early. ”

"What are they playing with us? How do you know? ”

"Do you remember that Wu Zi said that he and Chen Lao had only been in the desert for a few months?" Da Lei asked rhetorically.

Xiao Hai thought for a while and nodded: "Ah, what's wrong?" ”

"It's only been a few months and the battery has been used up a lot?" Da Lei shook the flashlight in his hand and said, "This game should be used at night, and besides, people still have to sleep, and they don't have to use it every night." I think they've been here for a year and a half. ”

"Maybe they also entered some secret passage, tomb, etc., and stayed in it for ten days and half a month, and the flashlight was ......more expensive to use."

"What a memory do you have!" Da Lei reprimanded Xiaohai and interrupted him: "Didn't you ask before, Wu Zi said that he had never entered the tomb at all." You're smart sometimes, you're stupid sometimes! ”

Maybe the last sentence was louder, and the old Chen in front turned around and asked, "Little brother, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Ah, it's okay, Old Chen! Playing with my brother! Da Lei replied with an embarrassed smile.

"Your psychological quality is really strong enough! This place can make a lot of noise. Wu Zitou didn't reply.

Da Lei didn't speak, and glared at Xiao Hai.

The servants followed silently, not knowing where they had turned, and all around were wooden stakes, large and small, but they were all neatly arranged in order.

It seems that they are still in the "light" area, strange, why did they not reach the "center of the sun" after walking for so long?

Although it seems that this place has to be a thousand hectares, it is a circle after all, and if you follow the same direction, you should be able to go there.

Damn, it shouldn't be a "ghost hitting the wall"!

After walking for a while, it was still the same, and Wu Zi and Chen Lao in front of them also seemed to have noticed that something was wrong, so they stopped and looked left and right.

Canu was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, yawning for days, and this contagious act quickly caused everyone to yawn. During the day, they had already walked 10,000 steps, and at night it was the weakest time for the human body, so several people decided not to leave, and found a wooden stake to sit down, sleep for a while, and talk about it at dawn.

"This so-called ghost hitting the wall is all an old saying. In fact, the night is too dark, and people's sense of direction is blurred, and they can't figure out where to go. Wu Zi raised his head and took a sip of water, looking very enjoyable.

"So it's long overdue to rest, and we'll talk about it at dawn." Xiao Hai chewed on the rice in his mouth, and his speech sounded whining.

"Dude, we're not going to stay here tomorrow morning." Da Lei handed Wu Zi a handful of rice and gave it to Chen Lao, Chen Lao waved his hand and said, "I can't bite my teeth." ”

"What do you mean?" Wu Zi asked.

"We wanted to get out of the desert, and we didn't have much interest in these wooden pillars, so we'll leave here early tomorrow morning."

"Do you know where to go?"

Da Lei sighed: "Let's explore." ”

"You wait." Wu Zi put the flashlight in his mouth, then took out the map and spread it out, took out a pen and drew on it.

"What did you draw this?" Xiao Hai came over, but Wu Zi suddenly stood up and startled him, then took out his compass and said to Da Lei: "We are now on the north bank of the Peacock River, if you want to go to Ruoqiang, you have to go south." Here. As he spoke, Wu Zi stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the guide, and said, "That's it, do you see, it's that tall pillar...... Hey? ”

"What's wrong?" Elder Chen sensed that something was wrong, stood up and asked.

"Uncle, look there."

Chen Lao took out the binoculars, stared at them for a while, and muttered, "Above... There seems to be something glowing up there. ”

"That's right! Let's go over and take a look. Wu Zi turned back to Da Lei and said, "When you are tired, just rest here, and I will go with my uncle to have a look." ”

"It's okay, let's go together, anyway, we're going to go there tomorrow morning, and it's the same in the past."

"Wait a minute." Xiao Hai said: "It's convenient for Ganu to go, and I'll be back immediately." ”

As soon as the words fell, a flute sound lingered for a long time, although it was not harsh, it was shocking and dizzy.

Da Lei was shocked, where did the flute sound come from in this desert desert? !

The sound continued, several people held their breath, the atmosphere was extremely quiet and weird, and they only heard Chen Lao's words: "Oops! ”

Looking up, I saw that his face was pale, and he said with trembling lips: "This... This is "Huai Song"... In ancient times, it was used to sacrifice to the dead on Halloween Day..."

Da Lei felt cold and itchy on his face, and when he looked up at the sky, it was snowing.
