Chapter 15: A Strange Ancient City
The car continued to drive towards the ruins, and when there were about two kilometers left, the car could not drive. Brother Hu tried several times to no avail, the tires rubbed against the sand with a screeching sound, and there was a tendency to sink.
He stopped the car and said, "We can't drive anymore, we can only walk over." ”
Brother Guo also shouted: "I feel that there is a strong repulsive force blocking the progress of the car. ”
"I'll just say it's weird here!" Liang Miaomiao jumped out of the car, looked in the direction of the ruins, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Look! There was a mirage! ”
"Where?" Everyone looked around, and there was nothing in front of them except a pile of broken walls and ruins, and all around them was dry yellow sand.
"It's on the ruins!"
"Nope."
Everyone said that they didn't see it, and Liang Miaomiao was stupid on the spot, and couldn't help but rub her eyes. But she did see an ancient city, its whole body seemed to be covered with a thin veil, and the dark red walls looked particularly strange and penetrating in the scorching sun.
"I saw an ancient city in the ruins, the red walls and cornices were well preserved, and if you couldn't see it, I'm not sure if it was a mirage or a ghost town!"
Ah Fu didn't see a clue no matter how he looked at it, and said: "What ghost town is not a ghost town, I am not afraid of ghosts or death, and I have not done anything wrong." I'll go find out first! ”
Brother Kang also volunteered: "I'll go with you!" ”
The two of them trotted all the way into the ruins, and Tang Hao and Pingping watched their every move with binoculars, trying to find out what was unusual in the ruins. But the two soldiers carefully checked around the ruins, and found nothing unusual.
They came back sweating profusely and said, "We have a general look, and the ruins of the city wall are a special kind of metal, as if they have a certain repulsion to other metals. Our weapons can be brought along, but they can become particularly heavy. Apart from a few weathered and dilapidated houses, no danger was found. We can camp under the ruins, where the back is very cool, and it is better not to bring metal things in, otherwise it will take a lot of energy. ”
Everyone looked at Liang Miaomiao intently and asked, "Is the body inside?" ”
I saw Liang Miaomiao take out the remnant soul, and before she could see it clearly, she felt a sudden tingling pain in her head, and the remnant soul actually broke free from her hand! Flee to the ancient city!
Liang Miaomiao couldn't help but step forward and chase a few steps, but naturally she didn't catch up, so she could only watch the remnant soul slip into the ancient city.
Tang Hao caught up and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's very likely that the body was there!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was very excited, as if it was only a matter of time before they got 10 million. Liang Miaomiao said: "There is a problem in this place, and what I see in my eyes is different from yours." Be careful! ”
Everyone nodded and began to clear their luggage, leaving all the metal in the car except for their weapons for self-defense. The group slowly walked in front of the ruins, and Liang Miaomiao saw a translucent woman in a red bridal dress inlaid in the wall of the ancient city. The woman did not make any dangerous moves, but looked at them motionlessly.
Liang Miaomiao took the lead in the front, her eyes looked at her vigilantly, and she pushed open the gate of the ancient city, and the bride did not stop her, but revealed envious eyes.
The city gate was gently pushed open, and the ancient city was a bustling scene, and the vendors who set up stalls along the street shouted loudly and smiled, and courteously solicited business from customers. The bazaar was full of people, the cries of chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, stall owners, and the bargaining words of customers were endless.
Liang Miaomiao whispered, "Did you see it? There's a bustling street in front of it, and it's full of people!
But everyone looked at it for a while, and only found a few long and broken sections of the city wall lonely in the sand, although it was noon in the desert, but the sun was dim and dim.
Tang Hao touched the remnants of the wall and said: "Looking at the ruins, this should be an ancient city, and the city wall is made of a special metal, at least I haven't seen it in my cognition." This thing doesn't belong to the desert, and it can't be transported so much metal from outside, so I guess these things came from heaven. ”
"Extraterrestrial meteorites?"
"Eighty percent of that is."
Ah Fu and Kang Ge walked into the confines of the ruins again, and Liang Miaomiao saw them walking through the houses, walking wantonly down the streets, passing through the lively 'crowd'.
"How?" Brother Kang asked.
Liang Miaomiao listened attentively for a while, and felt that although it looked like a lot of people, it was like a disc that was constantly repeating. She replied, "I saw people coming and going passing through the two of you, do you feel uncomfortable?" ”
Ah Fu and Brother Kang felt it carefully, and said: "We feel that the temperature here is much cooler than outside, maybe it is the effect of the meteorite." In short, compared to the heat outside, it is more comfortable here. ”
As soon as the two of them said this, Pingping, Tang Hao and the two drivers hurriedly went in to escape the heat, after all, there was no problem with Ah Fu and Ah Kang going in and out.
Liang Miaomiao couldn't help but smile bitterly, why was the scene she saw different from others?
The ancient city is paved with dense floor tiles, like a beehive ant hill, and it looks like a hideous expression. Liang Miaomiao carefully avoided these 'people' who came and went, these 'people' were estimated to have died a long time ago, if they accidentally touched these people, their bodies would automatically absorb their spiritual power, if they sucked one out unconsciously, it was better to say, I was afraid that I would offend the 'people' of the whole city at once.
"Auntie, where is the body?" Tang Hao asked.
Liang Miaomiao sighed and said, "I can only tell you that the body may be in some corner of this city, but I can't find him now." ”
"What then?"
"You just find a place to dig and try your luck, and I'll walk around."
"Okay."
The big guy started digging up from the entrance and exit, secretly observing Liang Miaomiao's movements from time to time. I saw Liang Miaomiao's steps were very strange, sometimes turning around, sometimes bowing her head, sometimes she could reach a place in a straight line, but she went around in a circle.
Liang Miaomiao was searching room by room, trying to find the remnant soul who had escaped, but unfortunately found nothing. Just as she was about to enter a 'room' to search, the sky suddenly darkened again, and waves of sand surged towards this side, like an invisible giant hand, peeling off one layer of the desert and covering another layer.
Liang Miaomiao couldn't tell if this was an illusory scene or if it was really a sandstorm blowing again, but everyone stopped what they were doing, as if they had been hit by a huge blow, their faces suddenly turned blue, and Ah Fu shouted: "Run!" The sandstorm is here again! ”
