Chapter 9 Deserts
This time it was longer than ever, and we spent seven days in the car, and if it weren't for the warmth in the car, I think we would all be frozen into ice bars. But fortunately, it is not boring, the scenery along the way is very good, and occasionally we will get off the bus to see the customs of the border.
"Lu Han, what kind of place do you say this is, why are there young people's photos hanging everywhere!" When the car drove to a more desolate place, the mountain was infected by the atmosphere here and shivered, I also frowned, this place is a bit evil, the car is extremely fast, and seeing anything is almost just a moment, but when I came to this village, it was like being entangled in a posthumous photo. Black and white photos, simple smiling faces, this is nothing, but we drove all the way for at least ten minutes, this is almost the entire village, but no matter where we go, almost six out of ten households have such posthumous photos, which is a little weird, and even makes people's necks chill, and the fat man is also uncomfortable, and hurriedly urges the driver brought by Zuo Lingtian: "Drive faster, there is a bit of an evil door here!" He looked at the posthumous photo of another family hanging in the center of the house, and finally couldn't help but shudder: "What's the matter, the fat man always feels that the person in the posthumous photo is always staring at us, it's too evil!" He urged the driver again. The only thing that can be said to be calm at the scene is the iceberg.
"This is the only village in our destination, and it is also the closest to that place, but in the past hundred years, it has changed from a relatively prosperous village to a declining deserted village, most of the young people have died inexplicably, and those who have not died have also gone to other places to make a living, and those who remain here are some old people who are old and unwilling to leave their hometowns!" Zuo Lingtian took a sip of warm wine as he spoke, and continued: "This place is indeed very evil, there is no way to find out the cause of death, there is only one point of information from the investigation, the people who died basically went to that desert, some never came back, and some died not long after they came back, this is not counting, after the people who come back die, it will spread everywhere like a plague, and a group of people will die one after another!" ”
"Ordinary people who have been hit by the corpse qi of the Ancient Holy Tomb and don't die immediately are already considered to have a good physique, if they don't die and bring the corpse qi back to the village, it will naturally harm the person who inhales the corpse qi!" Bingshan, who had not spoken all this time, stared at a posthumous photo, and said such a long sentence for the first time.
"I see!" Zuo Lingtian, as a senior officer of the military department, was also anxious about this matter and had no clue, but he didn't expect to be solved by the iceberg for many years The puzzle has not been solved for many years, he said with relief: "This is reasonable, the target of my mission instruction is indeed a desert in the Western Desert, these people walk in the desert all year round, and it is not easy to get close to that desert!" ”
"This is a tomb that has been killed by the heavens, so many people have been killed by corpse gas alone, so the tomb owner and the tomb builder should really be caught and soaked in the pig cage to light the sky lantern!" Dashan cursed non-stop, snorted his nose and said: "It's not easy to be dead for so many years, see that the young master doesn't dig his grave this time, and drags out the bones and whips the corpse to vent the common grave of these innocent dead people!" ”
"Humph!" As soon as Dashan finished speaking, I also knew that it was not good, because I felt that the location of the iceberg and his unique aura emanated and locked the mountain, and this aura would fluctuate every time only when the iceberg was angry, and I noticed that everyone was talking about the tomb of the eternal murderer, and he was talking about the holy tomb, which shows that he admired the god of the ages very much, and naturally did not allow others to blaspheme.
"Stop!" Bingshan snorted, and glanced at the mountain coldly, the mountain had long been silent, this can't be said that the mountain is timid, but the breath and gaze of the iceberg are too cold, and everyone can feel the actual killing intent.
The car stopped after a while, the iceberg jumped directly from the back of the car, I thought at first that he was going to act alone and just wanted to stop it, but then he borrowed a posthumous photo from a family and took it to the car and sat in the original position again, the cold breath had disappeared, he looked at the posthumous photo and said lightly: "How can the ancient holy tomb be desecrated, the eternal gods are not within the reach of you and me, these people are not sorry to die, they must have desecrated the tomb, otherwise it will cause the corpse to cause trouble to others!" ”
"The Eternal Gods are indeed not something we can comment on!" I said expressionlessly: "But so far I have seen four, all of them are strange tombs, and the means of building tombs are really cruel and unkind, so I dare not praise them!" Hearing this, Iceberg looked up at me very complicatedly, that look could not be explained in words, the few were not empty, but definitely not a normal human can have. And, for the first time, I even found a hint of amusement in his eyes, as if I had said this as a joke in his eyes.
"It's too early to say this, you will understand one day, and besides, naturally that person has disappeared from the world, it is useless to comment on it, go on!" Bingshan replied lightly and didn't say a word, I didn't touch my head again, Zuo Lingtian shook his head, glanced at the photo in Bingshan's hand, and told the driver to move on!
……
This time, the car stopped after only a few hours, and it was getting late, so we got out of the car one after another. I was the first time in my life to the desert, when I saw this desert I still couldn't help sighing, when it was really thousands of miles of red wilderness lifeless, and the weather is impermanent, the desert is like the sun during the day, and at night it is falling into the ice cave, a cool breeze blows accompanied by a cold breath so that the driver quickly ran back to the car, he is Zuo Lingtian's cronies, stronger than the special forces, but still can't resist the cold here, but as soon as he ran back to the car, he ran out again with cold air, because the car is made of stainless steel and cold iron, After the desert, the cold weather is even worse when the cold air is solidified.
"Damn, what a place!" Dashan wore the least, and he shrunk his hands and complained: "That strange man is really strange, how can he help someone build a tomb here, it's too ...... It's desolate, much more lifeless than the desert on TV" This time he learned to be obedient and didn't speak disrespectfully.
"Shanzi, you actually compare TV with the desert of the Western Desert?" The fat man rolled his eyes for a while and said, "I think I wanted to come to the desert to try my luck back then, because this is the place where the natural god tomb was built, but this kind of thing can only be thought about, and it is a long life to come alone!" ”
"Beware, this is already the edge of the desert, we have crossed thousands of miles of desert, which means that we are now isolated from the world!" Zuo Lingtian looked around, he was also here for the first time, and saw that this place was even more desolate than the legend, like half of the stagnant water, and there was no breath of life, the whole surroundings seemed to be surrounded by a kind of dead air, and no living thing wanted to approach here!
My feet on the yellow sand are not as soft as I imagined, on the contrary, it is as solid as stepping on an iron plate, which is contrary to the common sense of the desert, although it is already night, but at a glance, I can still see the yellow sand covering the sky for thousands of kilometers, and the waning moon in the sky seems to be unwilling to project light here, gray, I have a feeling that I am the only living entity on the whole earth.
Despair...... Yes, it's despair, I seem to be in a place of despair. Even the iceberg frowned, it was too panicked here, and no living creature could adapt to it. The fat man's flesh is naturally resistant to cold, he bored and grabbed a handful of yellow sand and threw it in the distance, but it couldn't stir up a trace of waves and sounds, he frowned and said: "This place is ...... The fat man knew that he would not come to death! ”
"What now?" Dashan simply sat on the ground, but as soon as he sat down, he screamed and jumped up and slapped his buttocks: "It's so hot, the sand here!" Everyone laughed, Zuo Lingtian said with a low smile: "I don't know how much time this desert has been saved, it has been scorched by the scorching sun, and it will hardly cool down, you just do it with flesh and blood, and you wear so little, it is really a young man who is fearless hahaha." ”
Dashan's face darkened: "Then why is there nothing wrong with us stepping on this broken sand?" Zuo Lingtian was stunned for a moment, then reacted and pointed to his shoes: "Do you remember the shoes I asked you to change before, the shoes you are wearing now are invulnerable!" ”
Big Mountain: "......"
"Let's go, find a more secluded place to deal with the past tonight!" Zuo Lingtian was the first to get into the car, just like seeing a ghost! We followed for fear of an accident, and only the iceberg stared around before getting into the car.
Going deeper into the desert again, we found a natural sand cave and hid in it, which made us breathtaking, no one would have thought that there was such a thing in the desert, and the space was large and very reliable, and I only left a trace when I looked at it with a sword.
"Do you think we'll be killed by the sand city storm when we sleep?" The fat man asked, Zuo Lingtian shook his head: "There is a dead silence here, the sand city storm cannot be generated, as long as we rely on the cold iron car to avoid a few days of scorching sun and some crises on the periphery of the desert, there will be basically no danger here, we should be able to enter the desert directly, the difficulty is how to find the tomb, the coordinates are not circled, we can only rely on ourselves to find it!"
"Don't worry, the fat man is looking for the dragon point, and the dragon lock tomb is all fine, as long as you find here, no tomb can escape the fat man's eyes!" The fat man is full of confidence when he shakes his hair to pieces!
"That's it!" Zuo Lingtian put his mind at ease, and then said: "There is food in the car, if it's okay, let's rest early and discuss how to enter the desert tomorrow and start acting, although there is no time limit, but staying here for a moment longer will be more dangerous!" "We didn't have a problem with that, and it wasn't long before the driver fell asleep, and I glanced at the iceberg, and he was leaning against the sand wall with his eyes closed, not knowing whether he was contemplative or sleeping. I didn't bother him, I sat on my shoes and closed my eyes slightly in contemplation, the scenes of the past came to mind like a movie, but it was no longer as fluctuating as before, now I feel very stable, there are no waves when I watch these, I believe that one day I can break a qiē. The iceberg seemed to feel something, slowly opened its eyes and looked at me, and then closed its eyes again, this rare lifeless desert has a little vitality because of our arrival, but the road ahead is full of unknowns, in this place where even the moonlight is not willing to project...... Will it really be as calm as it seems?
