――――――――――――――――――――――――――

After the snake control envoy left, Chi Tiancheng asked the soldiers standing guard in the corridor to find Tuth and Dastan, and told them that Nizam had secretly bought off Keshikan's men and ambushed them outside the city, so he asked Tus to prepare, but not to expose them, and then left Dastan alone.

"Come over here and help me see this." Chi Tiancheng beckoned to the puzzled Dastan and handed over the parchment dossier in his hand.

Dastan took the parchment dossier and said, "What is this, it looks a little ancient, hey, it actually records the legends of ancient times, the gods and saints, ......"

Without waiting for Chi Tiancheng to ask, Dastan looked at him with puzzled eyes and said, "Lord Messenger, is what you said above true?" The princess of this holy city is a holy woman, the guardian of the artifact of the ages? ”

"Tsk!"

Chi Tiancheng smacked his tongue secretly, he actually forgot about it, and he had already taken away the previous volumes.

In order not to reveal the flaws, he immediately said: "Yes, Tamina is the Artifact Guardian, but it is precisely because of this that her serious dereliction of duty has attracted the wrath of the gods, so she sent me to retrieve the Blade of Time, as well as the hourglass located in the underground ruins. ”

"You don't have to feel guilty, it's not your fault with Tus, it's Nizam who is at fault, it's his selfishness that caused all this, so the gods don't intend to punish you, nor destroy the world, just let me take back the holy relics, but on the contrary, you must also kill Nizam, this is the only way to make the gods forgive."

At first, when Dastan saw the record in the parchment dossier, his first thought was that this messenger of the gods was a fake?

But when I think about it later, I feel that it is not right, how can anyone be stupid enough to expose himself like this.

Then he heard Chi Tiancheng's explanation, and he was even more convinced of this celestial messenger in his heart, but when he heard that he was going to kill Nizam with his own hands later, Dastan was entangled again.

Although this incident started because of Nizam, he was the one who broke through the city gate, and now the way to calm the anger of the gods is to let them kill their own uncle, which is very entangled for him, who has always received the most important education of family affection.

Seeing Dastan's expression, Chi Tiancheng knew that the other party no longer doubted himself, so he said, "Don't mention this first, you can help me take a look here." ”

Chi Tiancheng pointed to the place where the snake and the flame were drawn.

Dastan looked at it for a while, frowned and said: "This seems to be a witchcraft, and seeing that it learns in such a wicked way, swallowing poisonous snakes alive, and crushing snakes and smearing them on their bodies, is this kind of witchcraft really going to be learned?" ”

"This is the witchcraft used by your empire's snake control envoy, and this parchment dossier was seized from him."

"I see, I wonder why my father suddenly gave up on those dark killers, because they used such evil sorcery." Dastan seemed to understand something.

Originally, I thought that the snake control envoy would deceive him, but now that he has been explained by Dastan, it seems that the way to learn this witchcraft is really like that, thinking of that disgusting method, Chi Tiancheng immediately dispelled the idea of learning.

After bidding farewell to Dastan, Chi Tiancheng lay on the bed, but he couldn't sleep, so he tossed and turned until dawn, gained superpowers, and his mental power improved a lot, plus he was originally a night owl, and not sleeping all night had no effect on him.

Staying in the palace, Chi Tiancheng had nothing to do, and since he had contacted the two princes alone last night, he also tried to avoid contact with other people, so as not to reveal any clues and be conjectured by others.

As soon as the days passed, he would only go out when he was eating, except for staying in his room, and the rest of the time he would just think about the gods of this world.

In two days, the king vigorously arranged manpower, and the process of digging the hole was very fast, until that night, the king sent someone to report that he had found a tunnel underground, suspected to be the entrance to the ruins.

Because it was a miracle left by the gods, the king did not let anyone enter without permission, but told him at the first time.

After getting the news, Chi Tiancheng was slightly happy in his heart, and no matter if it was night, he would let people lead the way by lighting a torch.

A group of ten guards, plus Chi Tiancheng, took the hanging ladder from the big hole in the ground, and soon came to the entrance of the tunnel.

Ye Ming walked in first and came to an underground space, which looked a bit like a stone chamber, and in front of him was a flat yellow sand road.

It was full of dust, and because of the darkness in it, the light of the torches alone could not see it clearly.

However, judging from the intersection in front of you, which looks like an eaves, this should be the place where Dastan entered the ruins in the movie.

I didn't expect to dig a hole here, and I didn't go directly to the hourglass, but it didn't matter, as long as I passed through the ground in front of me, and then through the path, you could go directly to the hourglass.

Chi Tiancheng, who has watched the movie, naturally knows that there are mechanisms everywhere in this flat land in front of him, and he can't step on it directly, and he can only move forward by stepping on a fixed position, otherwise it will cause the ground to collapse.

It's just that it's all covered in yellow sand, and it's impossible to tell where and where it is, and it's even more difficult to see clearly due to the lack of light, and it's impossible to guess the exact location even by impression, and at that time, Dastan and Tamina hadn't finished walking at all, because the falling gravel above touched the mechanism, causing the ground to begin to collapse and turn into a whirlpool of yellow sand.

Leaving those guards at the entrance of the cave, Chi Tiancheng walked in alone, in order not to trigger those mechanisms, he levitated on the surface of the ground and advanced, and soon passed through the yellow sand ground and entered the passage.

The entrance to the cave is very narrow, only about one meter, and the passage is not very long, only a dozen meters, worried that there will be a similar mechanism in it, Chi Tiancheng continued to fly, and soon passed through it.

And in front of this is still a stone room, and Chi Tiancheng knows that the real place where the hourglass is located is not this stone room, but under his feet.

There should be a vertical underground tunnel through which you can actually enter.

So he tried cautiously, and soon found that the ground in front of him was unusual, and it sank down with a slight force, and the superpower was activated to directly flip this place, and the vertical tunnel was presented in front of him.

Control the body slowly falls, and the eyes suddenly brighten, it is the light emitted by the hourglass, illuminating the entire underground space.

It was an underground space made of flat square stones, and the walls on both sides were carved with murals of the ancient Persian kingdom, but Chi Tiancheng had no intention of admiring them, but went straight to the hourglass.

Ahead is a bottomless abyss, and beyond that lies the hourglass.

The hourglass is formed by the condensation of countless sands of time, forming an irregular giant hourglass shape, standing above the bottomless abyss.

The surface of the hourglass is not flat, and it does not look like it is made of sand from a distance, but it gives off a soft earthy yellow glow and looks a bit like a hedron.

Looking at the surrounding situation, there were no other figures, and I thought that Nizam had kidnapped Tamina and must have wanted her to lead the way into the ruins first, and then ambush herself here, trying to find a way to snatch the Blade of Time, but I didn't expect him to do it.

In fact, Nizam did plan to do so, although he had been hiding in the cellar, but at the same time he was keeping an eye on what was happening in the outside world.

Originally, it was planned that Tamina would bring him in first, and then let a group of killers ambush here, but the city's defenses were fiercely guarded overnight, as if they expected him to be in Almut.

Hiding in the cellar, he has been looking for an opportunity, but after two days, the city's defenses are impenetrable, and even with the help of killers, he can't guarantee that he can enter the ruins without causing any trouble.

Until just now he learned from the killer that the other party had found the intersection of the ruins, and Chi Tiancheng had already entered, Nizam couldn't wait any longer, and even left the cellar with the killers and let Tamina lead the way.

Just when he stepped out of the cellar, a fire suddenly lit up around the pitch black, and he saw that there were soldiers standing around him with weapons and armor, and the person standing at the front turned out to be his own nephew Tus.

Realizing that the matter had been exposed, Nizam shouted for the killers to cover him and rushed out, but the killers were indifferent and walked towards Tuth, and then stood on either side of him.

The snake control envoy did not see any news from Chi Tiancheng for two days, so he took it upon himself to contact Tus and told him about Nizam's hiding place, hoping to show his loyalty.

Seeing this scene, he didn't know that he had been betrayed, and looking at the dense soldiers around him, he knew that it was impossible for him to escape.

At this moment, Tus walked towards him step by step, and said: "Uncle, you have been completely surrounded by the soldiers of the empire, I have no intention of hurting you, and I ask you to restrain yourself and not make useless resistance." ”

"You want me to be caught? This is impossible, I have endured this for decades, how can I turn back now! Nizam looked hideous, and immediately drew his saber.

When the crossbowman, who had been standing in the rear, saw this scene and thought that the traitor of the empire was going to rise up and hurt the future emperor, he immediately pulled the trigger on the crossbow arrow, and the arrow struck like lightning, instantly piercing Nizam's throat.

Nizam's eyes widened, and they were full of disbelief, and at this time he could no longer muster any strength, and the scimitar fell to the ground, and his body fell weakly.

"Who is it?" Tuston turned his head and shouted angrily, looking at the crossbowmen in the back row.

Under this drink, the soldier who released the cold arrow was so frightened that he couldn't even hold the bow and crossbow steadily, and quickly knelt on the ground.

"Alas......" Tus knew that this could not be blamed on the soldiers, after all, it was Nizam who drew his scimitar first, sighed deeply, he came to the side of his uncle's corpse, and looked at him with complicated eyes, "Uncle, the ending should not be like this, why do you ...... this"
