Chapter Ninety-Four, The Underground Palace

The moon and stars are scarce, and the sky is filled with an unpredictable black, as if it is the black curtain of death. It's just that the bright moon is very bright, as if it is the hope of life that can penetrate death.

The black sandstorm is getting closer and closer, and life is gone in a matter of moments. The Black Sandstorm is worthy of being called the Grim Reaper of the Desert, and the only thing it passes through is the wind and dust that obscures the sky and the sun, and the huge deep pits on the ground. Heaven and earth seem to have returned to millions of years ago, when Pangu had not yet opened the heavens and the earth, and everything was in chaos and lifeless.

When Shi Yunyang and Ran Tianluo felt the violent wind and sand approaching, the two also discovered another danger. That's the threat from man-eating ants. When Shi Yunyang was running with Ran Tianluo on his back, he accidentally punctured the center of his foot, and blood remained on the sand. Those ant colonies are very sensitive to blood, and when they smell it, they will definitely chase after it. Not long after, several man-eating ants had already climbed on Shi Yunyang's face, between Shi Yunyang's forehead and the bridge of his nose. At this time, it was close at hand, Shi Yunyang looked through the moonlight, and only felt that the little man-eating ant was hideously terrifying.

This man-eating ant is too cruel, Shi Yunyang has seen the scene of their predation, and knows the huge and bloody power of these small things. He didn't want to die at the hands of these butchers anyway.

Shi Yunyang turned his head to look at Ran Tianluo, but found that the same feeling was in her eyes. At this time, only their heads were exposed to the ground, and their bodies were already submerged in quicksand. The two glanced at each other, but Shi Yunyang smiled lightly.

When death does come, you can't escape it. At this time, it is less fearful. Death is like a festival that is bound to come, and you have no choice but to meet it.

"Tilt"

"Cloudlift"

Neither of them had much to say at this point, but this final call was moving enough. The two of them were buried deep in the sand and hugged each other's bodies and leaned on each other, and suddenly there was a rattle of quicksand. The storm approached, and the wind swept up the sand like clouds. The two looked at each other as the yellow sand gradually disappeared past their eyes, completely falling into the quicksand.

The sandstorm came shortly after, and it was so earth-shattering. The power that can tear apart a qiē has turned heaven and earth into a battlefield. However, tomorrow after the black sandstorm, this place should be calm, and this quicksand may no longer be quicksand. No one knows that there is a true love buried in this piece of yellow sand.

It is said that the two people who fell into the quicksand, after the valve in their bodies was closed, both of them burst out with spiritual power, protecting their mouth, nose, eyes and heart. At this time, although it is considered to be a long breath, the desire to live is unstoppable. Protecting their hearts like this, at least until their spiritual power is exhausted, both of them can keep their lives safe, but this kind of protection is only a futile struggle. When the spiritual power is exhausted, it will naturally die, and even if the spiritual power is exhausted, the body cannot move in such an environment, and it will starve to death and die of thirst. Or it is directly steamed dry by the hot yellow sand and turned into a dead corpse.

Shi Yunyang and Ran Tianluo didn't think of so much at the moment, they just wanted to extend their weak lifeline as much as possible, so that they could spend more time with each other, even if it was just a moment.

The spiritual power protected the body, and the two hugged each other tighter. Both of them felt strangely that the sand around their bodies was moving. The muscles of both of them were rubbed hot. It seems that the two are still sinking at this time.

The two of them thought in unison: "How deep is this quicksand, it is still sinking." ”

This situation lasted for about a cup of tea, which was short, but it was indeed too long for the two of them. The two of them only felt that the yellow sand around their bodies suddenly slipped wildly, and their bodies also fell instantly. As if falling from a high altitude, the two of them fell to the ground with a bang in a pile of yellow sand. Shi Yunyang landed and found that his hands and feet were able to move. immediately hugged Ran Tianluo and rolled for a while. Shi Yunyang and the two suddenly rolled to the side, only to see thousands of acres of yellow sand immediately covering the position of the two of them just now. Once this is suppressed, it will be difficult to come out.

Shi Yunyang and Ran Tianluo stood up and found that they had escaped without dying, and they were very happy in their hearts. Hug each other tightly. The two of them have walked past the brink of death no more times, and this is another time. The so-called catastrophe does not die, and there will be blessings. For the two of them, the greatest happiness is to be able to stay with the person they like.

After a burst of ecstasy, Shi Yunyang and the others began to calm down and observe the surrounding environment. But it's pitch black, and you can't see anything. Shi Yunyang's silver spiritual power gushed out, illuminating the surroundings like a meteor. In a flash, Shi Yunyang found a torch stuck in the wall not far away. Shi Yunyang slowly moved his steps, went there and took off the torch, and ran the arson trick in his heart to light the torch.

With the help of the light of the torches, Shi Yunyang discovered that this was a place similar to a cemetery. Shi Yunyang took a torch to look around, and saw that the walls were carved with portraits of various characters and horses, which were very exquisite. Shi Yunyang looked up and saw that the dome of the Yongdao was very high, no wonder there was a feeling of falling from a high altitude when he fell. There seems to be something carved on the dome as well, but the light of the torches is limited and it is not clear to see. I only feel that it is dark and a shadow, which makes people feel very scary. This corridor-like corridor leads to the depths of the dungeon. It looks secluded. I don't know what's in it.

Ran Tianluo leaned down, removed the yellow sand piled up on the ground, and stroked the quaint stone bricks on the ground. "What the hell is this?"

Shi Yunyang shook his head and said, "It's not certain yet. ”

Shi Yunyang looked towards the exit where the two of them fell from the quicksand, which had been completely sealed, and on top was the weight of the entire desert, which could not be obtained no matter what.

Shi Yunyang said: "It seems that we can only continue to move forward. Don't be afraid, even the quicksand has survived, are you still afraid of this dungeon?"

Ran Tianluo nodded, it would be useless to stay in this place at the moment. Although the front is eerie, at least there is hope to get out.

The two of them didn't delay any longer, got up and walked to the depths of the underground palace. Along the way, both of them could see the yellow sand seeping from the broken walls. It marks that the palace is really sunk underground. Along the way, there are broken shards of enamel, as well as precious jade, and there are also white bones scattered throughout. Many of the sculptures have been shattered and turned into piles of rubble. However, you can still see the exquisiteness of the carving. The two of them were strange, the furnishings of this palace did not look like an underground palace mausoleum at all, the construction here was exquisite, the carving was fine, but it was like a royal city.

Shi Yunyang suddenly thought of something, his eyes were full of surprise, and he said to Ran Tianluo: "Tianluo, I think I know what kind of place this is." ”

Ran asked, "You know? We've never been here before." ”

Shi Yunyang said: "Didn't Master Moke say that a hundred years ago, the Gumo Royal Palace once fell into the ground in a great earth movement? At that time, the sand blood was in Gumo, and Moke said that the sand blood was in this dead desert at this time. Although Sand Blood is a sacred object, it does not possess spiritual intelligence and cannot walk on its own. Then there is only one explanation, what is buried under this death desert is the ancient royal palace of Gumo. That's where we are now. ”

Ran Tianluo was taken aback and said, "This is Gumo?!"

Shi Yunyang nodded and said, "Most likely, if this is Gumo King City, it is very likely that we will find sand blood here." ”

The two made such a speculation, and they were a little more happy in their hearts. For a moment, even the eerie environment around them was ignored, and the two of them walked towards the deeper part of the underground palace.

After a while, the two came to a relatively open place. It's already a mess, and you can vaguely see that it's a big hall. There are several beams and columns in the main hall, and you can still see faint silk connecting them between the beams and columns. The hall is covered with cobwebs, and it is impossible to pass through it. Shi Yunyang used a torch to ignite the cobwebs here, and after a while, the cobwebs in the main hall were already burning, and the fire spread rapidly. With the help of the firelight, Shi Yunyang saw the original appearance of this hall.

The main hall is circular, high on all sides, low in the middle, and on the circular walls of this hall, there are many entrances. Rows of stairs lead from the doorway to the flat open space in the center. Viewed from above, the layout of the entire hall resembles that of a sun. Where the two are diagonally opposite, there is a solemn golden throne. In the light of the fire, it is resplendent in gold.

The position occupied by the two is exactly the entrance to a large hall, although the furnishings in this hall are chaotic, but there is indeed an indescribable majesty, this is really a palace of the emperor. Even if it has become dust, this kind of emperor's breath will never change.

The cobwebs in the hall had burned out in a short time, and the whole hall was about to fall into darkness again. Shi Yunyang seized the opportunity and manipulated the flames to ignite the torches tied to the walls around the main hall. The hall was bright again.

After staying in the dark for a long time, the light is a kind of hope.

The two of them were about to walk towards the main hall, when suddenly there was a sound of rustling on the ground. The two looked at each other. I saw a sudden red smoke rise from the ground, and the surrounding stones began to tremble after the smoke appeared. After a while, he walked away towards the smoke, which continued to gather around the large and small rubble, and after a while, he became a stone man.

I saw that the stone man's eyes opened, and a powerful essence light shot out. There was a strange sound in his mouth that Shi Yunyang and Ran Tianluo had never heard.

"It's a youkai!"

The two had never met a demon before, and today was the first time they had encountered it. I don't know how difficult this thing will be. Shi Yunyang flipped his right hand and squeezed the burning sky in his hand. Ran Tianluo also waved his hands in front of him, and a guqin was suspended in front of him.

"It seems that this thing must be solved, and you will cooperate with me in the long range for a while, and I will fight in close combat, and strive to quickly defeat the enemy, and don't consume too much body. ”

Ran Tianluo nodded, only to see that the stone man had already floated towards the two of them with the stones floating all over his body
