After a long stretch of yellow sand, the army continued to move forward.

In such an environment, the army is not moving fast.

Fortunately, the Loulan army and the Xiongnu were the same.

At this time, a cliff appeared in front of him, and caves appeared on top of the cliff, with huge Buddha statues, and many devout believers were worshipping.

At the sight of the army, these people looked extremely afraid.

Lin Bai asked curiously, "What kind of place is this?" ”

Chen Linyun said: "Hui Juma, here is the Shazhou Grottoes, there are many such grottoes in the Shazhou generation, there are all kinds of Buddha statues and murals in them, all of which have been left by the past dynasties, and the Shazhou has been a holy place for Buddhism since ancient times, and Tianzhu Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains, as well as all parts of the southwest, all through this. ”

"There are at least thousands of caves like this, and each cave has various Buddha statues and murals......"

Lin Bai was amazed.

The King of Dry Rice couldn't help but ask, "How do you chisel the grotto on the cliff wall, isn't it nothing to do after eating too much?" ”

The difficulty of digging a grotto on the cliff wall can be imagined, and it is better to build a Buddhist temple directly.

In the eyes of the king of dry rice, this purely belongs to being full and supporting.

Chen Linyun shook his head and said, "Definitely! Legend has it that the sandbar has been rebuilt several times because it was covered by the wind and sand, and it was buried under the endless yellow sand. ”

"And digging the grotto and placing the Buddha murals in it can be maintained permanently, so ......"

I see!

Lin Bai nodded in surprise.

The King of Dry Rice looked disdainful, "Since this place is not good, why not change places." ”

This guy is very arrogant, and he doesn't have any faith or anything like that, and even if he does, it's a brother-in-law, so he ......

The group walked for a while, and at this time, there was a sudden exclamation from the front.

"Quicksand, everyone be careful, hurry back!"

Lin Bai didn't know why, so he hurriedly went up to check, only to see that the yellow sand not far in front of him was sinking rapidly, affecting the yellow sand around him, like a whirlpool that was expanding rapidly.

Although the great genius has been a human for two lives, it is the first time he has come to the desert, but the quicksand has heard of it, it is extremely dangerous, and if you are not careful, you may be buried under the yellow sand.

It is said that it is formed by excessive evaporation of water in the soil, which is a hidden danger in the desert.

Fortunately, the soldiers in front found it in time.

Chen Linyun frowned and said, "It shouldn't be! There shouldn't be quicksand in this area. ”

Chen Linyun said: "Although there is no exact location, there are still some in the approximate range, and this road is the main road into the sandbar, and there are many people coming and going every day, so it stands to reason that there should be no quicksand." ”

With long-term pedestrian traffic, even if the ground is soft, it will become solid if it is often stepped on.

Lin Bai nodded subconsciously, this is the reason!

As if to confirm his words, the quicksand in front of him slowly stopped, revealing a dark hole.

The Dry Rice King's eyes lit up, "Isn't this quicksand?" ”

Chen Linyun also looked puzzled.

The king of dry rice said: "Just go in and take a look." ”

This guy is not afraid of heaven and earth, and before Lin Bai can speak, he stepped forward to check, poked his head into the hole and looked, and there were curious soldiers who were also investigating.

Soon, everyone found that the cave seemed to be not small, and many people got into it.

After a while, the King of Dry Rice came out.

"Brother-in-law, it seems to be a city in there, it's strange, there is a city under the desert."

Lin Bai was also very curious, thought about it, and decided to go in and have a look.

Chasing Yue wanted to object, but seeing that everyone else was fine when they went in, he agreed, and went into the cave with his uncle.

The cave extends in all directions, and it is very empty, it really looks like a city, and even a lot of dried corpses have been found, because they are dry, they are well preserved.

Chen Linyun checked it and said: "Qi Yu Horse, this should be what the last general said before, the ancient city covered by the wind and sand, and other entrances were found around, those corpses were all looted, it seems that they have been excavated a long time ago." ”

At first, the soldiers still had a hint of treasure hunting, and when they learned this, they were suddenly a little interested.

Out of the cave, Chen Linyun also found two locals to confirm.

His guess was correct, there was indeed an underground ancient city under this piece of yellow sand, which was said to have been revealed to people for a while, and then a sandstorm reburied it.

It's nothing in the desert.

There are countless secrets buried under the yellow sand, and the locals are not the same thing at all.

I'm used to it.

"Uncle, is there something wrong?"

Chasing Yue noticed her uncle's strangeness and asked curiously.

Because my uncle has been looking at this piece of yellow sand, not only that, but also let people depict the appearance of the underground ancient city under the yellow sand, the approximate scale, structure, and so on.

Don't talk about him, Chen Linyun is a little anxious.

At present, the Loulan army and the Hun army are approaching the sandbank, and the horse master seems to want to hunt for treasure, how can he not be in a hurry.

Although 10,000 people don't have any chance no matter how you look at it, but since they have come, they naturally have to fight with all their might, take Shazhou City first, and rely on the advantages of the city wall, maybe they can hold on for a little longer, if they can hold on until the princess solves the crisis of Otsuki, maybe......

However, the talented people calmly looked at this piece of yellow sand and said, "This may be our opportunity." ”

Chen Linyun was puzzled.

The army moved on.

However, he soon found that Yan Gang seemed to be gone, and the five hundred soldiers were also gone.

10,000 people is not too much, but it is not too little, and no one will notice it if there are a few hundred fewer people.

Chen Linyun wanted to ask several times, but finally gave up.

In the evening, a lonely city finally appeared in front of everyone, and at the same time, the sound of war drums also sounded.

At the same time.

Not too far away, in another piece of yellow sand, a dense army was rapidly approaching the sandbar.

is the first three people, one of whom is Lou Jindong.

There is also a middle-aged man in extremely luxurious costumes, Prince Loulan and King Gran.

There is also a burly man wearing wolf skin on the waist of a tiger, one of the twenty-four kings of the Xiongnu, the Kun evil king.

"Report!"

At this time, a spy came quickly, "King Qilan, King Kunxi, and the four princes of Dali have arrived at the sandbank with an army of 10,000. ”

The Kun Evil King's voice was like a bell, "How much?" ”

The spy hurriedly replied: "Dayue's 60,000 troops, of which 50,000 have returned to Zhaowu with Princess Dayue, and now there are only about 12,000 people left. ”

King Kun Evil suddenly laughed disdainfully, "Just 10,000 people, you dare to go straight to the sandbar, King Gran, this kid doesn't take your Loulan seriously at all!" ”

There was a hint of mockery in his tone.

The corner of King Gran's eyes jumped, "It's just a dog jumping off the wall in a hurry, Kun Evil King, don't talk nonsense, let's wait until I take down that kid!" ”

The Kun Evil King laughed, "Good to say! Before sunset tomorrow, this king will behead the prince of Dali under the horse, and I hope that by then, King Gran will not forget our agreement, hahaha!! ”

"Sons! Kill! ”

Kill, kill, kill!!
