Phantom

At this time, the cow ran over curiously, poked its head out to take a look, and the puppy was stunned for a moment. It barked softly at An Zixin a few times in fear, and An Zixin could only comfort the little dog again and again. Dog, to be honest, the little beauty was actually freaking out herself.

At this time, Alessio suddenly said happily: "I understand, why this mouse has red eyes and black hair, I have read those novels, only those mice that specialize in eating rotting corpses will have this phenomenon! These mice must be Eating corpses and growing up, this kind of thing is highly poisonous!"

An Zixin cursed resolutely: "Isn't this discovery very happy?! Why don't you recall how the protagonists of your messy novels deal with the rats that eat corpses?! Ah?!"

Alessio stuck out his tongue and retracted decisively. At this time, Robert calmly said: "It seems that Toledo has some good ideas!"

An Zixin hurriedly looked over, only to see a flash of light suddenly flashed in the cave where Toledo and the others were in, not one but several, and this light was completely different from a flashlight, the little beauty suddenly understood that it was a torch!

Then Toledo threw down some flammable materials such as cloth and wood, and Alessio suddenly shouted: "Burn these mice with fire! That's great! It's a good idea! We will help too!" "

The five people immediately took out some fabrics, including a few coats. In addition, Alessio and Ricardo cut some branches on the way there very quickly.

As mentioned before, there are actually a lot of trees in this underground cave!God knows how it survived, but these trees don't look the same as the ones on the surface.The color is pitch black, which looks a little scary. After some experiments, I found that this kind of branch is difficult to ignite, and there is always an indescribable gloomy feeling in the hand.

But Alessio experimented and found that if sprinkled with a little combustion aid, such as alcohol, the branch can be ignited smoothly, and once the fire is ignited, it is difficult to extinguish it again, but the effect is very good.And Sylvia as the team doctor.She happened to have alcohol in her backpack.

It's just that An Zixin always feels that the flame after the branch is lit is different from the normal one, it doesn't feel like the kind of heat that hits the face, but makes people feel a chill!The color is also ice blue!

But at the moment, they can't care about these details. With the cooperation of both sides, after about half an hour, the bottom is already full of flammable materials.Then the people on both sides dropped a large number of burning sticks at the same time.Soon the entire ground was burning with flames that soared into the sky!

The army of rats who have lived underground for a long time has obviously never seen this battle.The big mouse in the lead chirped a few times to stabilize the army's morale. It ran over curiously, but accidentally stepped on a blue flame, and immediately let out a shrill scream.Then the big mouse ran into the river!

Boss has spread his feet and ran away. All of a sudden, these mice panicked and ran around quickly. As expected, they responded to the idiom. They are as timid as a mouse. It seems that even the nature of the mutated corpse rat will not change. .

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the mouse army being burned to pieces, the advancing troops and the ground troops immediately climbed to the ground one by one with ropes. They carefully avoided the burning flames, and finally the two troops reunited again!

Fortunately, all nine people were there, including Xueba Ruan Zhouan. Although he looked a little panicked and embarrassed, overall he was fine and he was not injured.

Obviously, now is not a good time to reminisce about the old days, and if you have something to say, you have to talk while walking. An Zixin quickly told them that a large group of bad guys are coming. Toledo immediately suggested to hurry up and cross the river!

Fifteen people were extremely efficient under the overall command of Toledo, and quickly built a rope bridge by the river, and then climbed over one by one, Robert and Ricardo stayed at the end to cut off the backs of everyone.

Fortunately, after the group of mice ran away, they didn't come back so quickly. This time the crossing of the river was smooth, well, except that Ruan Zhou'an almost fell into the water and drowned...

The Italian also recovered the rope and took a short rest.

At this time, the two sides had the opportunity to exchange some information. Sure enough, the advance troops also encountered this terrible mouse on the way. Fortunately, Toledo was experienced and alert, and reminded everyone to pay attention in time. In addition, they can fight There were as many as eight people, and they finally walked to the place just now without any danger, and then encountered an army of rats.

A very realistic question that needs to be faced at this time is, now that everyone is together, do we need to move on? !

After a quick discussion, it was finally decided that there were people coming later anyway, and it might not be possible to go back for a while, so it was better to move on and see what was there.

So, after the rendezvous, the team of [-] people continued to move forward. Robert and the cow were still at the front, but this time they had two more main forces on their sides to protect the flanks, making them feel much safer.

After crossing the river, the terrain became very simple, just a large open space. The fourteen of them walked together for a distance of more than 100 meters, and came to the edge of a cliff. This cliff stretches for hundreds of meters, as if The ground was cut off with a knife!It looks quite spectacular!

Standing on the edge of the cliff, An Zixin looked down with the dim light of the flashlight, but the little beauty was shocked on the spot!I didn't hold back a word for a long time!

Because about 100 meters directly below this cliff, there is a silent ancient city lying impressively!

This is a real city!This ancient city stretches forward for several miles, boundless as far as the eye can see!The walls, buildings and even the roads of the ancient city are well preserved, and it seems that you can vaguely see the grand occasion of people coming and going back then!

It's just that all these things are gone now, only the city made of stones is left lying quietly in the depths of the ground, lifeless!If An Zixin and the Italians were just shocked, then Ruan Zhouan was going crazy!

He pointed at the ancient underground city tremblingly and said, "Hei... Heishui City! The disappearing Heishui City! It's... right here! This is a huge discovery in ancient Chinese history... Heishui City has not disappeared from afar... He... ... sank to the ground!"

An Zixin didn't bother to pay attention to him, the purpose of her coming here was to see what the four brothers of the Chen family were looking for on the Future Star, they didn't come here to listen to Ruan Zhouan's nagging.

After recovering from the shock, An Zixin gritted her teeth and said, "This cliff is not very deep, let's hang it down with a rope and have a look!"

This proposal received a positive response from everyone, and soon the team began to climb down slowly with the help of ropes.

Finally, a few minutes later, fourteen of them set foot on this ancient city that mysteriously disappeared in history!

Below the cliff is a ruined city wall. Ruan Zhouan touched the wall excitedly, as if he was touching the skin of a beautiful woman.

If An Zixin hadn't scolded him a few times, he would have been able to study for a while with the city wall bare.

After several people passed through the city wall, they walked on the streets of the ancient city. There were low stone buildings on both sides. Ruan Zhouan kept introducing to everyone with an excited voice. He especially mentioned that the rows of houses in the distance must be It's a barracks.

Heishui City was one of the Twelve Soldiers and Horses during the Xixia period. The most elite troops of Xixia were stationed here. Later, Genghis Khan captured Heishuicheng first, and then pushed into the capital of the Xixia King in one fell swoop, and finally wiped out this mysterious ancient dynasty. .

An Zixin lacks interest in these things, and she has been listening without saying a word. However, Ruan Zhouan's later words attracted the little beauty's attention, and she only heard him say: "There is an interesting rumor that Genghis Khan attacked After going to Heishui City, I stayed in the city for a long time, and seemed to be looking for something important. This is not in line with the combat habits of the Mongols, because the Mongols’ fighting style is very similar to that of the Germans during World War II. They are good at blitzkrieg and long-distance warfare. The raid after the raid! Who made them a nation on horseback, but this kind of tug-of-war in the city is not their strong point! So Genghis Khan stayed in Heishui City for a long time, which attracted the attention of some historians , my teacher is one of them, but some people refuted it, saying that we thought too much, and the reason why Genghis Khan stayed here for a long time was that he was seriously ill and could not walk anymore, because not long after that, he continued to conquer Xixia. died on the way."

An Zixin frowned, and she quickly grasped the point: "You mean, Genghis Khan was looking for something here, and then I don't know if he found it. Anyway, he died soon after continuing on the road?"

Ruan Zhou An'e said in a loud voice, "It seems that you can't say that you are wrong..."

An Zixin frowned, and was about to ask another question, when suddenly the cow barked violently!

These well-trained gangsters drew out their machetes without hesitation, and entered the battle preparation with a full face of vigilance!

Gradually, An Zixin heard the sound of chaotic but extremely fast footsteps!

Then dozens of those black-haired and red-eyed mice ran towards them!

The Italians slashed without hesitation, and a fierce battle broke out in an instant!An Zixin also joined the battle group with her stick!She was already good at speed, so it was just right to deal with this little mouse!

In a blink of an eye, she had already placed two mice, and she suddenly felt that something was wrong. The mice this time seemed to be different from the previous ones. It seemed that they did not come to attack her, but purely wanted to escape!

Several other Italians also gradually discovered this problem. Although their subordinates continued to exterminate rats, they all showed strange expressions on their faces.

Soon, more than half of the dozens of mice were killed by them, and the rest ran away frantically in the direction they came.

An Zixin pursed her lips and said, "What are these mice running for..."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a rumbling sound in front of her, and a huge black shadow suddenly rushed out from the depths of the city! (To be continued..)
