Although I was very curious, I didn't ask too much, because I thought about it carefully and thought that maybe their surnames, Dragon, actually represented the Dragon Shield Bureau, and as for the names One and Nine, they were actually code names. Since it may be related to the Dragon Shield Bureau, I think it's better not to ask too much, knowing too much won't do me any good. As a joke, if you are killed, the gains outweigh the losses.

Under the command of Chen Biao and Li Guo, all the things in the camp were quickly packed, and the six tents and other materials that had been removed from the car were reloaded into the car, because the old ghost said that the ant colony could still kill the horse gun again, and we didn't dare to delay here for too long, and after about half an hour, the convoy set off in the direction where the old ghost said the beacon tower was.

Because Wen Qingshan and I were more familiar with the old ghost and Long Jiansheng, Long Yi arranged for the two of us to sit in the same car with them, and on the way, the old ghost told us that in fact, he and Long Jiansheng came to Lop Nur this time, not entirely to help me, the original purpose of their coming here was to find the legendary Heavenly Wolf Country, and they entered Lop Nur even earlier than the expedition team organized by the Dragon Shield Bureau.

Later, when Long Jiu learned that I was coming to Lop Nur, he was worried about what danger I would encounter, so he asked them to meet me, but as soon as he found us, he happened to encounter us being besieged by a colony of sand-eating ants.

Sand eaters are a very ferocious ant species, similar to the desert marching ants in South America, they also live in a fixed place, wander around, and use a qiē animal they encounter as food, however, the sand-eater ant is much larger than the desert marching ant, and has a pair of very strong jaws, and can even gnaw on metal objects, so it is very terrifying. A swarm of sandeaters can nibble a large camel into a pile of skeletons in five minutes, and even the skeleton is riddled with holes. It's also fortunate that the old ghost is very good at dealing with all kinds of Gu insects, snakes and ants, otherwise it's really hard to say whether we can get out safely.

After listening to the old ghost's story, I couldn't help but sigh: "I really didn't expect Lop Nur to have such a fierce and terrible thing!" ”

When the old ghost heard this, he smiled and said, "In this ghost place, sand devouring ants are actually nothing. There's something scarier than that. ”

I couldn't help but tremble slightly, and hurriedly asked, "What is more terrifying?" ”

The old ghost didn't answer me immediately, but asked rhetorically, "I see that there seems to be a local guide in your team, didn't he tell you about the wolf spirit knight?" ”

"What did you say!? Wolf Spirit Knight!? "When I heard the Wolf Spirit Knight, I couldn't help but be surprised, and I thought I had heard it wrong, because the name was a little too western.

The old ghost nodded and continued, "The Wolf Spirit Knight is an ancient legend that is said to be related to the Celestial Wolf Kingdom. Speaking of this, he asked Wen Qingshan and me rhetorically: "Then did they mention to you the zombie incident that occurred in the area of Lop Nur in the fifties and sixties of the last century?" ”

I was even more surprised: "There are zombies in this kind of inaccessible place?" ”

"Not only have there been zombies, but I'm afraid there have been zombies more than once, and there is even a saying that the disappearance of the Loulan civilization is not actually affected by climate change, but it is the disaster of zombies."

"Damn, old ghost senior, don't scare me!"

As soon as my voice fell, Wen Qingshan said on the side: "The zombie incident mentioned by the old ghost predecessors, I have heard of it, it is said that in the fifties and sixties of the last century, some herdsmen found a very old castle in Lop Nur, and not long after, a very rare infectious disease broke out in this area, this infectious disease is a bit similar to rabies, making people become very crazy, bite when they see people, and completely lose consciousness, just like zombies, so it is called the Lop Nur zombie incident. However, this matter has been classified as highly secret, because it is said that the nuclear test at Lop Nur was later related to the zombie incident. ”

"What!? You mean to say that the nuclear explosion in this place is actually to destroy the zombies!? ”

Wen Qingshan smiled and said, "Hehe, I think to be precise, it should be to eliminate that terrifying infectious virus." ”

"It's a pity that not only has the infectious virus not been eradicated, but because of nuclear radiation, something even more terrible has appeared in this area."

"Old ghost senior, did you run into something in this area?" Wen Qingshan asked curiously.

The old ghost glanced at Wen Qingshan and said, "The sand eaters you encountered before are actually variants that occurred after nuclear radiation, and they are several times larger than ordinary sand ants. In addition to the sand-eating ants, there is also a terrible serpentine creature in this area, this serpentine creature hides under the sand, and when it appears, it will make a 'ziz' sound, the frequency of this sound is quite high, a bit similar to electromagnetic waves, which will not only affect various signals, but also make me dizzy and even lose consciousness in a short period of time. ”

"And such strange creatures!?" Wen Qingshan and I were both taken aback.

"Of course, we ran into one of these things, but fortunately, this kid shot cleanly and pierced its head with a sword, otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't be here today."

After listening to the old ghost's story, I couldn't help but gasp, I really didn't expect that the seemingly barren Lop Nur would still hide such a terrifying creature, no wonder it would be called the Sea of Death.

However, I was more interested in the "wolf spirit knight" that the old ghost just mentioned than those terrifying creatures, and I asked him, "Old ghost senior, can you tell us what the wolf spirit knight is all about?" ”

The old ghost said: "We haven't met the wolf spirit knight, I also heard that in the Lop Nur area, there is a terrifying ghost knight, called the wolf spirit knight, this kind of wolf spirit knight wolf head body, riding a ghost war horse with strong armor beside him, the wolf spirit knight's eyes will shoot a terrifying death light, once it is watched, it will become a soulless walking corpse, so some people think that the Lop Nur area has suffered many zombie disasters, and this wolf spirit knight is not unrelated. ”

"The wolf's head and human body are not humans, wolves and beasts! Could it be the ghosts of man, wolves, and beasts after their death? ”

"It is true that some people say that the wolf knights of the Heavenly Wolf Country are still haunting, so they are still wandering around Lop Nur. But I don't know what's going on, anyway, I don't think it's very reliable, you can ask the local guide when you go back. ”

As we were talking, Long Jiansheng, who had been silent, suddenly pointed his hand out of the car window and said, "Look there! ”

Looking in the direction he was pointing, he saw that a dark shadow seemed to be moving above a towering sand dune in the distance.

Because the distance was too far away, and the night was hazy, I couldn't see clearly, so I hurriedly asked, "What is that?" It can't be a person, right!? ”

The old ghost frowned and said, "That's a desert wolf!" ”

"There are wolves in this kind of place?" I was a little surprised, Lop Nur is a barren land, and the wolf ran here, I really don't know how it survived.

The old ghost said lightly, "That wolf has been following us for days. ”

"Could it be that it is taking you as prey and wants to wait for an opportunity to ambush you?" Wen Qingshan said.

The old ghost smiled and said, "In this kind of place, do you still need an ambush, in my opinion, it is waiting for us to die of thirst or starvation." As soon as he finished speaking, a wolf cry of "whoa-whoa" came from a distance.

It must have been the wolf's call, but as soon as Wen Qingshan heard this voice, his face immediately changed slightly, and he said, "This wolf is calling its companions." ”

"Companions? You're saying there are wolves in this Lop Nur!? ”

As soon as I finished speaking, Long Jiansheng looked out the window and said coldly: "It is a lone wolf, and it is not summoning wolves, but summoning wolf spirit knights. ”

"What...... What the!? Long Jiansheng's words surprised me, and Wen Qingshan was also startled, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Jiansheng, how do you know that it is summoning a wolf spirit knight?" ”

Long Jiansheng didn't answer, he just stared at the wolf shadow on the sand dunes in the distance, and didn't even look back, the old ghost said very disdainfully: "Don't listen to this kid's nonsense, he has said this more than once, but I haven't seen what the wolf spirit knight looks like until now, this kid is probably frightened by the legend of the wolf spirit knight." ”

Long Jiansheng didn't refute the old ghost's question, he didn't seem to bother to refute it at all, but I seemed to see a trace of worry in his eyes.

After the convoy drove in the sand for more than an hour, the old ghost suddenly signaled the driver to stop, and the driver stepped on the accelerator and stopped the car, because our car was in the front, and the whole convoy stopped moving.

"Old ghost senior, what's wrong?" I asked.

"It's already here!" After the old ghost finished speaking, he opened the car door and jumped out of the car, and everyone else got out of the car one after another, Long Yi walked forward quickly and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The old ghost raised his hand and pointed to the top of a hill not far away, and said, "Here we are, the beacon tower is on top of it!" ”

Everyone turned their heads to look in the direction he pointed, and there was really a building, from a distance, it looked like an old castle, but the shape of the building looked a little strange, and it seemed to be a little different from the ancient beacon tower I had seen on TV before, and it looked mysterious and strange against the backdrop of the night.

What people didn't expect was that Ai Shan stared at the beacon tower for a while, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and he shouted loudly: "We can't go to that place!" ”

"Why?" Long Yi asked puzzled.

"That'...... It wasn't a beacon at all, but ...... It's a wolf ghost castle. ”

Everyone was taken aback. Long Yi hurriedly asked, "What's going on with the Wolf Ghost Castle!?" ”
