Chapter 981: There is water under the city

The dark place, the eyes are all dilapidated and yellow sand, the prosperity and laughter of the past, were buried under the yellow sand overnight, all of which are given by Baili Chang.

"Wait!" Xuanwu suddenly spoke, "There's movement."

Zi Lan immediately raised her hand, and everyone stopped at the moment, pricking up their ears one by one, listening carefully to the movements around them.

"Looks like it's in front?" Qinglong said.

Zilan motioned for everyone to stand still and not move, and Xuanwu and Qinglong immediately stepped forward to check the situation.

The front is in a mess, all the houses and yellow sand are piled together, which is considered a large-scale group of houses, before...... It should be a relatively large building, similar to a mansion or a palace.

The white mud wall glowed with a terrible white glimmer in the darkness, and the sound came from inside, and the front could not be entered, so it had to be detoured to the edge of the road, through the collapsed triangle at the edge.

Xuanwu is in front, and Qinglong is in the back.

One in front and one in the back, the two of them are condensed in the palm of their hands, ready to shoot at any time.

Suddenly, Xuanwu raised his hand.

The green dragon immediately stopped, carefully hiding in the darkness.

Someone in front of him seemed to be digging something, listening to the crackling sound, and the noisy sound, it was really a bit harsh, and there were two people tied to the side, and even their mouths were tightly gagged.

These two people, Qinglong and Xuanwu are no strangers, aren't they the two people who discovered the lake from heaven in the inn at that time?!

Qinglong: Heh, it's all here!

Xuanwu: Don't act rashly, go and tell Childe first.

Everything has to be decided by Childe.

"Those Jianghu people?" Qi Yue had actually guessed it.

Qinglong nodded, "Xuanwu is staring at it, it's inside, there are a lot of them, this will be digging treasures, I don't know if you have dug anything?" Childe, do you want to take it?"

These people calculated them earlier, and they must not stop this time, and they will definitely make them pay the corresponding price.

"Let's see!" Qi Yue bent down and went inside.

Zilan instructed the people, "Wait outside first, listen to my orders, and don't act rashly."

This place is no better than the outside, in case the movement is too big, causing a secondary collapse, no one can run, so Zilan doesn't dare to let go......

"Yes!" The crowd saluted.

Inside, it's really lively.

A group of people kept pulling the sand and digging for something.

Not to mention, it is true that some things are dug out from the inside, such as some broken jade pieces, some gold and silver objects, but there are not many things, and it looks like they were left here, or they are used daily, and they are not rare things.

"Damn, that's all there is to it?" The one-eyed dragon led by him was very angry, "I've been looking for a long time, and all these broken bricks and tiles?"

Thinking of this, he suddenly turned around and grabbed one of the bound men on the ground.

"Say, are you lying to Lao Tzu again?" The one-eyed dragon gritted its teeth, "Is this the land of innocence? Does this look like there is a treasure? Did you two collude and didn't tell the truth to Lao Tzu? Trick us into this fucking place and dig the fucking sand......

The man trembled, "No, no, I'm not lying, this is, that's where I was last time I been, there was a lake outside before, and now, I don't know why it's not, but the location is right, this is it!" Uncle, I said everything, don't kill me, don't kill me, I really didn't lie."

"Damn!" The one-eyed dragon ran out of patience and said, "Look around."

If you can't dig something in this place, then continue digging in another place.

A group of people quickly scattered and began to search all over the place, but the ground was full of sand, and there were ruins everywhere as far as the eye could see, and it was really not easy to find something good, unless you knew the exact location early on.

However, it can't stop the strength of the crowd.

"Boss, here!"

A shout, accompanied by footsteps, quickly walked to the side.

"Let's go!" Qi Yue greeted, and the three people behind him immediately followed.

I don't know how these people opened the stone door, and there are steps at the bottom, and they slowly go down, getting colder and colder.

"What is this place?" Qinglong's eyebrows frowned slightly.

The surroundings were a little damp, and moss grew on the walls, and there was a sound of wind and water at the bottom, as if it was ......

"It can't be a dark river, right?" Zilan spoke.

Qi Yue paused, reached out and touched a handful of water stains and moss on the wall, not to mention, there is indeed such a possibility, "Maybe, you are right, this ancient city exists here, there must be a meaning, if there is no water, how can anyone live here?"

So, there must be water around here.

Like that magical lake, or a hidden river.

To survive in the desert, the first condition is water!

If there is water, you can live.

"The water is loud." Xuanwu spoke, "It should be the Dark River, it can't be wrong."

Qinglong was surprised, "I didn't expect that in a place where birds don't, there is actually a river?"

"Don't look at the desert yellow sand, in fact, there are many dark rivers under the yellow sand, and where these dark rivers pass, they will form oases, but the dark rivers are not fixed, they may appear here, or they may suddenly dry up and appear in other places." Xuanwu explained, "This is probably the reason why the lake will appear and disappear for a while, right?"

"That means this was once an oasis."

"It is said that the land of innocence once flourished." Zilan said, "This is still from the master, there are many people living in the oasis, and there is no war, they have always loved each other, and they have multiplied from generation to generation."

Qinglong frowned, "Isn't that a paradise?"

"It's a pity that it was ruined." Qi Yue let out a sigh of relief.

Because of the first emperor, overnight, the country of innocence disappeared into the desert, and since then it has become a legend in everyone's mouth, and no one has really found it again.

But now, the ruins of the land of innocence have suddenly appeared......

Overnight, there was nothing.

Finally, the stairs were finished.

What catches your eye is a sparkling dark river.

This dark river is flowing endlessly, and the water vapor under it is so thick that people's hairs stand on end, and they can't stop shivering.

One cold and one hot, it's really a little unbearable.

"This dark river is really powerful." Qinglong stepped forward slowly, "Can you drink?"

Xuanwu nodded, "Naturally, this is the source of life in the desert, as long as there is water, whether it is flowers, trees, people and animals, it can coexist with the desert forever."

"Where did those people go?" Zilan looked around, "Why didn't you see it?" z.br>

All around, there was only the sound of water in an uproar......
