The sun was sinking in the west, the sky was darkening, and there was a faint sound of horses' hooves in the distance, but it disappeared into the howling of the desert wind.

As the wind subsided, the sound of horses' hooves in the distance gradually began to rumble from far to near, and even on the sand dunes, there was still a feeling of thousands of horses galloping.

The sound of horses' hooves was melodious, and many small black dots appeared at the end of the field of vision, densely packed, rushing forward, and a large cloud of sand and dust rolled up behind them.

The small black dots gradually became three-dimensional, and slowly turned into a samurai dressed in cyan robes with extremely cold faces, sitting on horseback, rushing forward.

At the foreground were seven people, lined up, looking like the leader of the group.

On the far left is a short, sharp-eyed young man who doesn't look very old, not yet a weak crown, but carrying a man-tall giant sword, two feet wide and without a blade.

On the right of this person is a middle-aged man with a long body and a white beard, holding a feather fan, wearing a scarf on his head, and wearing a crane, his appearance is somewhat elegant, and he looks quite like a Confucian scholar.

The man on the right side of the Confucian scholar had a dark complexion, a green robe, a long black sword with a black sheath on his back, and a mask on his face, his face could not be seen clearly, but his two eyes were black and white, and he looked very bright in the darkening desert.

Although the man in the middle is not very old, he does not look more than thirty years old, but his face is covered with green stubble, although the clothes he wears are luxurious, but he looks like a fierce face, he likes to laugh very much, he always has a smile on his face, but it looks fake, giving people a feeling of a smiling tiger.

Next to the smiling tiger is a tall and burly man, he is very tall, half a head taller than most people, generally tall and burly people always look domineering, tiger and tiger, but he looks a little approachable, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze, it is easy to make people close, his age is considered to be older among the seven people, he is already more than fifty years old, but sitting on horseback, the waist is still straight, his eyes are still very bright, his beard is not long, but it is very dark and thick.

Next to this burly man is a brute girl, dressed in a strange shape, full of black hair combed into seventy or eighty small braids, one in the east and one in the west, swaying around with the gallop of the horse, giving people a strange feeling, but her face is extremely beautiful, with good facial features and smart eyes, but she is different from ordinary women, her face is full of murderous energy, and she has a feeling of killing if she doesn't agree with a word.

The person on the far right is a pockmark, there are countless pockmarks on his face, I'm afraid there are more sesame seeds than the sesame on the sesame cake, but he likes to look in the mirror very much, almost every few dozen breaths of effort will take out a mirror from his arms to take a look, he looks in the mirror and is different from ordinary people, he doesn't do anything else, just smirk at the mirror, as if the person in the mirror is handsome, his face is like a crown of jade, in fact, his appearance is not handsome at all.

Behind these seven people was the dense array of Tsing Yi warriors, there were hundreds of them, each with a sinister aura on their faces, obviously these people had blood on their hands, and only those who had experienced the battle would have such a strong aura.

The target of their run was the place where Xu Zidao and his party had walked before, I am afraid that not to mention Ji Qianye, even Xu Zidao did not expect that there was such a group of people following behind them.

At this time, Xu Zidao and others had just entered the oasis.

......

Oasis.

The five dwellings beside the two pools, one large and one small, were already full of warriors dressed in strange costumes, wearing strange ornaments, and holding Changge, neatly and silently.

In the largest and most ornate of them, there was already a scene of singing and dancing, on both sides of the house were rows of coffee tables, on which were placed fresh fruits and wines, as well as all kinds of fragrant food, Xu Zidao and others sat face to face with the respected people of the Yilan tribe, and the high priest was high on the gold seat above the stone staircase.

In the center of the dwelling, there are several young girls, holding a basket of flowers in one hand and throwing colorful petals on the soft grass felt with a tender lotus-like arm in the other.

They are all beautiful, very exotic girl-like, blonde hair and blue eyes, snow-skinned and high-nosed, they are dressed in a thin gauze dress, revealing a snow-white and crystal calf.

A string of silver bells is worn on his lap, and the dance "jingles".

There are also several long skirts dragging the ground, beautiful girls with high buns and clouds, carrying palace lanterns, all of them come and dance with the melodious singing, the dance posture is different from the desert, it is the Hu Xuan dance from the Western Regions.

The dancing posture is light, like floating clouds, gorgeous appearance, like blooming peonies, looking back and smiling......

Seeing that everyone's eyes were straight, but what made Xu Zidao and the others even more excited was that a girl dressed in a white veil and looking like a nine-day fairy walked out of these women, smiled at everyone, and then sat down cross-legged.

This smile really tarnished the heavens and the earth, and everyone seemed to be stunned.

The girl sat cross-legged in the middle of the field, and a girl brought her a pear-shaped pipa with a curved neck and four phases, which she placed horizontally on her lap and waved her slender hand.

Only listen to the sound of "Cong", the wonderful sound rises suddenly, like a big bead and a small bead falling on a jade plate, like a light snowflake in the sky, and no other sound can be heard between heaven and earth.

The crowd was only stupid, forgetting hunger and thirst, forgetting singing and dancing, forgetting everything, and could not move for a long time until the sound of the piano was over.

The high priest showed a satisfied look on his face, looked at Xu Zidao with his eyes, and asked, "How is it?"

Xu Zidao let out a long sigh before he said: "This song should only be in the sky, and the world can hear it a few times, such a good performance, it is worth the trip." ”

The rest of the people had come to their senses by this time, and there was a look of admiration on their faces, and even Madame Rose, who was also a master of the lute, had to be deeply immersed in the girl's piano skills.

Even Fang Tianji, who has always been moody, was soul-stirring by this qin sound, and stood on the spot, I am afraid that there are not many people in the world who can be more superb than this girl's piano skills.

This girl was none other than the Holy Lady Quuff.

She got up and smiled at Xu Zidao, then retreated back to her seat, and everyone realized that the girl was sitting opposite them.

Lin Taiping couldn't help pouting slightly, because after the girl sat down, her eyes were always on Xu Zidao, and she never left, and Xu Zidao naturally wanted to smile in return for the girl's gaze, but in Lin Taiping's eyes, the two of them were eyebrows and eyebrows.

Lin Taiping couldn't help but hate this girl even more.

After the song and dance, the high priest waved his right hand, and the girls in the field retreated, and the house suddenly became quiet, and she smiled slightly: "Guests from afar, how is the reception banquet tonight?

Ji Qianye said loudly: "The nobleman's heart can be known from this banquet, thank you for the noble hospitality, the noble girl is beautiful and colorful, and has a unique flavor!"

Ji Qianye's words were remarkable, the high priest smiled slightly, nodded, and continued: "This is very good, Xu Shaoxia must have talked to you about today's matter, as long as you can help Xu Shaoxia crack the mechanism that guards the treasure, the Crescent Moon Tower is up to you." ”

"I wonder if the High Priest can tell us more about the treasure mechanism so that we can have a plan to deal with it. Ji Qianye pondered for a long time and said.

The high priest glanced at Xu Zidao, and when he saw that the latter had a look of curiosity on his face, he smiled and said, "I wonder if you have heard of the Sun Tomb?"

"Sun Tomb, what is that?" Ji Qianye asked with a confused face.

The rest of the people also showed a look similar to Ji Qianye's face, and even Xu Zidao, who had always been very well-informed about the news, was not at all impressed.

The high priest observed the expressions of the people, knowing that they might not have heard of it, and then his lips moved slightly, and explained: "The so-called Sun Tomb is actually a tomb group, where our Elan tribe buries their ancestors, because the totem of our Ilan tribe is the sun, so after the death of the clan, the tomb will be built in the shape of the sun, and the treasure is located in one of the sun tombs. ”

Xu Zidao frowned and said, "Could it be that there is something mysterious in this Sun Tomb?"

The high priest was silent for a long time before he said, "It's not easy to describe it for a while, but everyone will see it tomorrow." ”

"That's fine!" Ji Qianye glanced at the rest of the people and said.

Then the high priest did not continue the subject, but raised a glass with the crowd, and waved her hand at the maid beside her, and the girls who had been singing and dancing before came in again, and the house became singing and dancing again.
