Chapter 642: Ancient Tomb in the Desert

As early as more than a hundred years ago, several foreign explorers went deep into the Taklimakan Desert, discovered the ruins of the ancient city of Jingjue, and recorded it in a diary.

At that time, when the land of China was in chaos, this archaeological discovery did not attract people's attention.

After the world was peaceful, this incident was gradually forgotten.

It wasn't until Shirley Yang's father returned to China to find a way to lift the curse and obtained this diary from an antique dealer that this ancient city that had disappeared for thousands of years returned to people's sight.

Six months ago, Shirley Yang found her father's remains in Worm Valley, Yunnan, and found this diary among the relics.

The diary records the location of the ancient city Jingjue in detail. Combined with the clues revealed by Hong Beihai, this lost ancient city can be found in the vast desert!

After Shirley Yang determined the direction, everyone immediately embarked on the journey.

According to their traveling speed, they are expected to reach their destination at noon tomorrow.

Walking in the vast desert, as far as the eye can see is boundless yellow sand, and they are the only lonely figures between the sky and the earth.

After walking for a while, the fat man couldn't help but say.

"Do you have a feeling that although the Taklimakan Desert is known as the largest desert in China, the environment is much better than the Tarim Desert we went to last time, and it is not as scary as the legend says."

After Wuxie thought for a while, he smiled.

"It's just your feeling, it's not the case."

The last time they went to Snake Marsh Ghost Town, their physical condition had not been upgraded, they needed to use various means of transportation, and they were still exhausted.

But this time it was completely different. Everyone in the team had upgraded their physiques and were all top players. Of course, it felt much easier.

Another important reason is the super hurricane!

The Taklimakan Desert is indeed much larger than the Tarim Desert, and the environment is much harsher, but the emergence of this super hurricane has caused huge changes in the environment.

The hurricane dropped the temperature in the desert by more than ten degrees and brought warm and moist air currents, making the air humidity and temperature suitable for human activities.

It would have been much more difficult to find Jingjue Ancient City a year ago.

Shirley Yang listened and added.

"There is another reason. The curse of the ghost cave has been lifted. The psychological pressure is much less, and I feel much more relaxed."

As he said that, he looked at Ji Changsheng with grateful eyes.

"I have to thank Mr. Ji for this."

Ji Changsheng just smiled and said nothing.

Everyone walked in a meandering way. After walking for four hours, the sky gradually became dark.

Calculating the distance, they were only over 70 kilometers away from the ancient city of Jingjue.

After working hard all day, Ji Changsheng immediately ordered to set up camp, cook, rest for one night, and set off again tomorrow.

Everyone found a sheltered spot on the back of a sand dune, lit a bonfire, and cooked dinner.

Lie looked at the food in the pot, couldn't help but smash it in his mouth and said.

"Boss, I'm going to make it easier."

After saying that, he ran out of sight in a flash.

Wuxie looked at his back and said.

"This guy can run faster than a rabbit. I don't think he's going for convenience, but to find food."

Everyone has become accustomed to strong eating habits.

This barbarian warrior's favorite food is wild beasts, and he can't eat ordinary food at all.

Hu Bayi said worriedly.

"Mr. Ji, let me call him back. He is running around for fear of something happening."

The fat man chuckled and waved his hand.

"Let him look for it. It's strange that he can find it."

This is the center of a vast desert. Thousands of miles are covered with vast yellow sand. Not even a single weed can be seen, let alone any ferocious beasts.

Even if Lie is an excellent hunter, he can't find any prey.

Hu Bayi shook his head quickly.

"Lie grew up in the jungle, but the desert is not a jungle. If you run far away, you will get lost."

The scary thing about the desert is that no matter where you go, the terrain is exactly the same, with nothing to mark it.

Even the locals living nearby do not dare to break into the vast desert easily. Once they lose their way, they will be trapped and die!

Ji Changsheng nodded immediately.

"Lao Hu, go and chase him back."

Hu Bayi quickly got up and chased after him, and soon disappeared from sight.

Hu Bayi is proficient in Tianxing Feng Shui, and identifying directions is his specialty, so there is no need to worry about him getting lost.

An hour later, when dinner was ready.

Hu Bayi lived up to his trust and came back with Lie.

Lie looked at the food in the bowl with a resentful expression and had no appetite at all.

"I searched for a long time and couldn't even find a mouse."

As he spoke, he took out something from his arms and started playing with it.

When the fat man saw that thing, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly came over.

"Dude, where did you find this?"

In Lie's hand is a jade pendant. Judging from its shape and appearance, it is a fine ancient jade.

"Oh, there is half a stone tablet under a sand dune."

Stone tablet, ancient jade.

Fatty and Wang Kaixuan looked at each other, their eyes shining.

No need to ask, there must be an ancient tomb there!

The fat man immediately looked at Ji Changsheng and asked eagerly.

"Mr. Ji, can I go there and take a look?"

After Ji Changsheng thought for a while, he nodded.

"After dinner, let's go take a look together."

This place is only 70 kilometers away from the ancient city of Jingjue and belongs to the territory of Jingjue Kingdom.

That ancient tomb must be related to the ancient Jingjue Kingdom, and we can find some clues.

The fat man cheered and immediately took out the engineer shovel, the Yin claw and other tools from his backpack.

Aning frowned when he saw it.

"We are not here to rob tombs this time, and you still bring these things?"

The fat man laughed and said.

"As the saying goes, you can't leave your fists and your songs. You can't lose this skill. If you don't practice it for a day, it will become rusty."

When he first heard that he was going to find an ancient city ruins, he thought that Jingjue Kingdom was a large ancient country like the Demon Kingdom, and there must be a lot of gold and silver treasures, so he brought a full set of tools and wanted to do a big job.

In the end, Jingjue Kingdom was just a larger village, which disappointed the fat man.

If Lie hadn't accidentally discovered an ancient tomb, these tools would have been useless.

After dinner, everyone walked for more than half an hour under Lie's leadership and came to the bottom of a sand dune.

With the help of moonlight, people saw a broken stele exposed in the yellow sand, about one meter high.

Without saying a word, the fat man picked up the engineer shovel and dug out the stele in no time.

But to people's surprise, this stele was much larger than imagined, more than five meters high!

The fat man and Wang Kaixuan were overjoyed. According to the specifications of this stele, this must be a large-scale royal tomb!

Shirley Yang wiped off the yellow sand, looked at the inscription carefully, and was stunned for a moment.

"Mr. Ji, this is actually... the tomb of the Queen of Jingjue!"
