"Please come in. ”

Sun Licheng warmly beckoned Solomon into the tent.

Looking at the furnishings in the tent, Solomon couldn't help but nod. Sun Licheng still maintains the habits of the earth, not only is the tent clean, but all kinds of items are placed relatively neatly, which is very different from the dirty mess of ordinary goblins.

"I wonder what your excellency is looking for me?"

Sun Licheng poured a bowl of fragrant tea on Solomon, and then asked.

"Interesting drink, though, delicious. ”

Solomon took a sip of his tea and couldn't help but praise it.

In addition to finding cassava around the Chiyan tribe, Sun Licheng also found some tea leaves that had been collected in the flower tribe. He was used to drinking tea, so he dried some and put it beside him. Now, the entire Chiyan tribe and caravan have become popular to drink this tea.

"That's right, I heard that His Excellency Sun Licheng is inquiring about the Three Goddesses of Time. ”

Solomon put down the tea bowl and said to Sun Licheng.

Sun Licheng smiled and replied, "Is there such a thing, I don't know if Your Excellency has any advice?"

After Sun Licheng finished speaking, he stared at this half-elf.

"Huh. Your Excellency Sun Licheng, don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions. ”

When Solomon saw Sun Licheng's vigilance, he couldn't help but laugh.

But after he finished laughing, he saw that Sun Licheng didn't relax, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I don't know how much you know about the sandman?"

"Sandman?"

Sun Licheng was puzzled.

Solomon took another sip of tea and began to explain.

The so-called sandman is not a single race, but a general term for people living in the desert.

It is said that during the war of the ancient gods, the ancestors of these sandmen were banished into the desert by the great majesty because they disobeyed the orders of the gods not to attack the enemy, and left them to fend for themselves. Ten thousand years have passed, and these exiles have not died, but have stubbornly survived in the desert.

Because of the punishment of the gods, they had no way to move inland and could only live in an oasis in the desert, thus creating a special kind of civilization - the sandman civilization.

"I'm looking for the Three Goddesses of Time, what does it have to do with the Sandmen?"

After Sun Licheng heard the origin of the sandman, he still didn't know why.

"Don't be in a hurry. Do you know that there is a tribe among the sandmen who have always worshipped the goddess of time, and I wonder if you are interested in this news?"

Solomon waved his hand and said.

Of course, Sun Licheng was interested.

There are many kinds of priesthoods in this world, and many of them even keep pace with the times, and ordinary people can't figure it out at all. However, some priesthoods are fixed, and since the gods worshipped by the sandmen have a temporal attribute, I think it has a lot to do with the three sisters of time.

Although Sun Licheng was very happy that things had finally progressed, he still had to find out why Solomon, a half-elf, helped him, after all, Sipps's memory was too deep.

"Your Excellency Solomon, I wonder why you are telling me this?"

Sun Licheng asked directly.

Solomon smiled and said, "I'm telling you this news, of course, at your expense. Do you know the Great Pyramid?"

When Sun Licheng heard that Solomon needed a reward, his heart calmed down a lot, shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Solomon, don't laugh at me anymore, I don't know much about things here, so just say it directly." ”

When Solomon saw that Sun Licheng really didn't know, he talked about the Great Pyramid.

In the desert, there is a very special kind of ruin, which is the pyramid. This kind of structure is very similar to the pyramids of South America on Earth, with a four-sided conical shape and a temple at the top, which is very grandiose.

The jury has not been made about who built these pyramids, and what they were used for. It's just that there has always been a legend that the pyramid contains a huge treasure that, once discovered, can even change the world.

"Hehe, how can this kind of legend be taken seriously. Solomon laughed out loud when he said this, and when he was done, he said, "But it is true that there is treasure in the pyramids." ”

"You want me to help you explore the pyramids?"

Sun Licheng somewhat understood.

"Yes and no. The pyramids are in the desert, almost all of them are holy places for the sand tribe, and ordinary people can't enter them at all. However, since you are going to find the Goddess of Time, you will definitely enter the Holy Land of the Sand Clan, so I hope you will take me with you on this expedition. ”

After Solomon finished speaking, he looked at Sun Licheng.

"May I ask, what do you want to find inside the pyramid? Of course, if it's not convenient, I didn't ask. ”

Sun Licheng did not shy away, and also looked at Solomon and asked.

"I can't tell you that. All you have to do is know that my message is true. ”

Solomon said.

Sun Licheng thought about it and felt that this was the only clue, so he nodded and agreed.

Seeing Sun Licheng's agreement, Solomon was very happy, and packed his luggage and moved into the camp of the Chiyan tribe caravan on the same day.

The tribe of sandmen who worship the goddess of time is called the sands of time, a very literary name. They are in the middle of the desert, and they are not very powerful, so they are not famous, so most people do not know about them at all.

Fortunately, Chebman, an experienced merchant, finally figured out the location of that tribe after inquiring with the sandman merchants.

"Sun Licheng, do you have to go? It's very dangerous in the desert. ”

Chebman asked, a little worried.

This was the tenth day of coming to Shiqiao Fort, and Sun Licheng saw that there was not much cargo left, so he was ready to leave for the Sand of Time tribe.

"This is the only chance to find the time of the Three Sisters Goddess, I have to go. ”

Sun Licheng knew that the rabbit-headed man was kind, but if he wanted to find his way home, no matter how difficult and dangerous, he had to go on.

Chebman knew Sun Licheng's responsibility, so he could only shake his head and leave, he was going to go to the livestock market to buy some desert monitor lizards for Sun Licheng and them to use as mounts.

In the waterless desert, the yak cannot survive, and the desert monitor lizard is a very good means of transportation. These monitor lizards are large in size, with skin that can withstand the scorching sun, and the key is that they are not only resistant to hunger and thirst, but also have an extremely sensitive letter that can detect distant water sources, and is one of the most important assets of the sandman.

After another three days, Sun Licheng and the others finished their preparations, said goodbye to the caravan, and led by a sandman guide, crossed the famous stone bridge and entered the sand sea.

This time, Sun Licheng only brought his daughter-in-law Caroline, Clark and Solomon, and Da Zhuang also wanted to follow, but thinking about his appetite, Sun Licheng refused.

"It's a forbidden area for life. As long as anyone enters the sand sea, their life is not their own, and life and death depend on the rewards of the gods. Boss, we must listen to the guide, otherwise it is very easy to get into danger. ”

Clark rode on a monitor lizard more than five meters long and said to Sun Licheng.

"Understood. ”

Sun Licheng tightened the big headscarf that wrapped his head, nodded and said.

At this time, the sandman guide sang the sandman ballad. Although Sun Licheng couldn't understand the lyrics, he could also feel the vigorous vitality in them, and against the backdrop of the vast desert, it looked extremely desolate......
