Chapter 39: The Ancient City Demon Domain (Part I)

Seeing that the old prostitute was so anxious, I didn't go over to ask him, after all, I was also very anxious at the moment, and I couldn't wait to appear in front of the little wolf immediately.

It wasn't until I followed the passage past a few earthen houses that I truly appreciated the complexity of the Yamato passage in this ancient city.

I don't know how the old prostitute remembers which passage to take, but I think that if I had to go through it all over again, I would definitely go through the wrong passage. Because the size and appearance of the passages here are almost uniform, it is difficult to distinguish which one we have walked on, unless it has been clearly marked.

The old prostitute walked at the front of the line to lead the way, while I walked in the middle, and from time to time I had to remind the people behind to follow.

Compared to this kind of environment, the guys in the company are very accustomed to it, and they can face it calmly no matter how bad the environment is, and it is better to walk here than to climb a few hundred meters in the thief hole, so they move forward faster.

But the ruffians walked relatively slowly, talking as they walked, and some asked, is this a tomb robbery? said that it felt similar to the tunnel war in the movie, and some people were still questioning the words that the old prostitute said in the hotel the night before, thinking that there was nothing magical here, and it was no different from a remote countryside. The only difference is that when I walk on the street in the countryside, I walk inside the house here, so my curiosity is not so strong.

Looking at them outsiders, I really don't know what to say to them. If it weren't for the fact that the ancient city here had been cleaned up, I would have liked to get them something of value to increase their curiosity.

How do they know that the best place to dig gold is not in the ancient tombs, but in the ancient cities that have been damaged by floods or natural disasters. The flooded ancient cities were like collecting money for tomb robbers, whether it was porcelain or gold and silver objects. In those submerged ancient ruins, you only need to explore a distance of a few hundred meters to return with a full load.

Twenty more houses were walked forward, and the people in front suddenly stopped, and when I walked over to see it, I had walked into a dead end, and there was no passage in front of me, and it was all collapsed house walls.

"Did you go the wrong way?" I asked the old prostitute.

"That's right, it's the passage in front of you that has collapsed." The old prostitute glanced at me, whispered in my ear, and said, "It may have been caused by the collapse of the ancient city below." ”

"What then? Is there any other way? I asked.

"There are many roads, but I don't know if they lead to the temple inside." After the old prostitute finished talking to me, she said to the guys in my company: "In the way of opening a thief hole, at the location of the collapse, make a robbery hole to see if the houses inside have collapsed." ”

After he finished speaking, the guys in the company didn't immediately start to get it, but turned their heads to look at me. I nodded at them before they started.

The old prostitute patted me and whispered in my ear: "Okay, Xiao Qi, the guys under me are well trained, if you don't nod, they won't get started." ”

I looked at the old prostitute and smiled slightly, and said in my heart, which of them were trained by me, these people were all trained by the senior brother. When the senior brother was here, these people didn't necessarily listen to me, that is, now I give them the start of the work, otherwise these people donkey temper is more stubborn than the other, don't look at them are all working in the company, two sentences are screwed, and they still beat their heads and bleed.

In a few minutes, a hole was cleared out of the collapsed location, and a guy went in to take a look, and came back and said that it was full of collapsed earthen walls, and there was no passage in sight.

As soon as the old prostitute heard what the guy said, she immediately frowned, thought for a while, dragged me back to the passage where I originally came in, and said: "Xiao Qi, it may be a bit difficult now, now there are two options, one is to follow here all the way forward to clean up the collapsed house, and the other is to take other passages to try, maybe you can get inside, of course, this may take some time, after all, I haven't walked through every passage here." ”

"If you want to clean up the collapsed house, how long will it take, let's choose the fastest way to get in, which method do you think can be faster?" I asked.

"Let me tell you this, it can't be fast either way. There is still a long way to go to clean up the collapsed houses, and it will definitely take a lot of time, and as for the other passages, it depends on luck, if we get it right and walk for an hour or two, maybe we can get there. Of course, if we carry it, we may not be able to walk in all night. ”

As soon as I heard the old prostitute say this, it was too obvious, which meant that choosing to take another channel depended entirely on luck, and it was not certain whether I could go inside. I thought about it for a while and asked, "Old prostitute, you said that there is still a long way to go to clean up the collapsed house, how far is it?" Give an approximate distance. ”

The old prostitute scratched her head and said, "I can't tell you how far it is, and we're only one-eighth of the way now." If only one section of the passage collapses, it's okay to say, but if they all collapse, then it's better to choose to take another passage to try. ”

As soon as I heard the old prostitute say that she had only finished one-eighth of the way, I was immediately stunned. What kind of concept is this, we walked into more than 30 houses, and only one eighth of them came out, that is, there are still seven-eighths of the way to go, which is really a bit far.

I thought, no wonder the old prostitute didn't agree to clean up the collapsed house, it turned out that there was still such a long way, if the remaining seven-eighths were collapsed road sections, when would this have to be cleaned up. It is estimated that it will not be cleaned up in a day or two, and it depends on the collapse situation, if only the wall collapses, it is easy to get it, but if the sand on it also collapses, it will be difficult to deal with.

After discussing with the old prostitute, I finally decided to try other passages, after all, the distance to clean up the collapsed passage was too far, and it would take a long time.

For now, we can only rely on luck, and hope to be able to walk in other passages.

The old prostitute took everyone to choose a new passage, this walk is two hours, except for a few times to turn to the house that they walked through, most of the time they walked in an unfamiliar place.

Following the passage, we came to a wadi channel only three meters wide, which was right in front of us, and across the wadi was the passage to the houses inside.

If it weren't for the walls on both sides of the river that stood obliquely on both sides of the river and made a natural arch support, I am afraid that this section of the dry river would have been buried by the sand on it.

There is a layer of sand in the middle of the river, which should be the river itself, not the sand that fell from it. The sand in the river is a little wet, and it seems that there is still some water source at the bottom of the sand, I don't know if it is flowing. But I think it's going to be flowing, and if it's a stationary water source, the sand here should have dried out long ago.

When crossing the wadis, I asked the old prostitute, how far is it? The old prostitute said that they had not passed through this wadi last time they came down, so he could not judge the geographical location, and it was difficult to say how far it was.

Since the old prostitute and I were at the front of the line, we only glanced at the dry river and walked across the damp sand to the front, not noticing anything in the sand. I heard someone shouting from behind, saying that there was something in the sand, shining gold, like gold ornaments, so I walked back to see it.

It was discovered by a guy in the company, who was looking inside with a flashlight. It wasn't where we were jumping, but at the innermost point of the two walls, about seven meters away from where we were standing.

This guy with the flashlight, trying to go in and take things out, looked at me, meaning to ask me if I agree?

I didn't want to agree, after all, I came down this time to save the little wolves. But when you think about it, it's nothing, it's good to let them make a little money, and you can also increase their enthusiasm. Just let the ruffians take a look, so that they also have a little hope of getting rich, only in this way will they use all their strength to follow me to save people, and I think it is not difficult to get the things inside, as long as a person goes in a few meters on his stomach, he can get there, and he will not be delayed for a minute, so he nodded and agreed.

As soon as the man saw that I nodded in agreement, he jumped straight inside, lying on the wet sand and began to climb inside, for fear that someone would rob him, and he would be able to reach the contents of the inside by dividing it by two. While holding what he could reach, he fell back on his stomach, muttering, "It's still my sharp eyes, it's really golden." ”

As soon as he had finished speaking, we heard a sound, I don't know what it was, it was dull, not loud, like it came from under the sand in the river.

I was standing on the sand in the river, using a flashlight to help the guy light it up. When I noticed a sound in the sand, I immediately wanted to stay away from the sand, but I was surrounded by people, and everyone gathered around to see the guy inside take something out, and they all wanted to see what he was getting. These people, brought by the special riffraff, did not even realize that the sound was coming from under the sand, and they all looked around stupidly, looking for the source of the sound.

In desperation, I shouted, "Get out of the fuck and watch out under the sand." ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw something moving emerge from under the sand. The sudden appearance of this thing startled all of us, and I don't know who was scared behind me, and grabbed me, and dragged me backwards.

The moment I fell backwards, several more of the same things came out of the sand of the river. Only then did I see that it was a blood-red bug, with a very strange appearance, like an earthworm, without a clear head and feet, but much thicker than an earthworm, the largest one was as thick as my arm, and the foot was more than two meters long, and the body could stand up like a snake, and the outer skin was a bit like a thread spiraling upwards.

The guy who came out of it just exited, turned his head to see this scene, and was a little confused at the time, and then realized that it was not good, and immediately wanted to turn around and run. But as soon as he turned his head around, and before his body could fully turn, he was sprayed by this strange thing, and a scarlet viscous liquid immediately flowed down his face.

As he got up to run, he raised his hand to wipe the liquid from his face, and as soon as his hand touched his face, I saw his face change suddenly, and I almost didn't pee out of my mind.
