Rebuild the Upgrade Path

Ancient Loulan!

This country that was once a powerful country in the Western Regions, but mysteriously disappeared at a certain period of time, has always had a mysterious veil.

Unexpectedly, it actually appeared in front of me in such a situation.

Of course, since the black-robed man is called the city lord and mentioned other cities, this is naturally not the full picture of the ancient country of Loulan, but just a city.

It is difficult to comment without experiencing history. Who knows how big Loulan was at that time, and what shape was outlined by the border of the country.

The city was completely destroyed here, not even a building was left, not even a man-made artifact could be preserved, and it became a fragment buried in the sand. Even if someone finds the broken stone bricks, it is impossible to think of it. There was originally a city where I was standing.

Maybe when I stepped into this southern Xinjiang and after seeing this ancient city, deep down in my heart, I already had some thoughts on this aspect of the ancient country of Loulan, but I didn’t think about it again at the time, I just wanted to save people. .

And the memories of the Skeleton Queen made me think about the past in this regard, and even vaguely guessed some truth.

The ancient country of Loulan should not be at the location of this ancient city, but more to the west. In the west of Lop Nur, it is almost the westernmost position in our country.

Indeed, as the city lord said, Loulan was surrounded by many countries, especially the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu in our country. At that time, both the Han Dynasty and the Huns were unable to cross this country and threaten each other. At that time, Loulan occupied an important position. And one of the stops on the famous Silk Road is this Loulan.

I can imagine how lively it was during the Silk Road at that time. This may be what the old people said was the prosperity.

However, because of the later opening of a new road, the caravan no longer needs to pass through here to communicate with others, and here is lonely.

Later, Lop Nur began to drift away from Loulan's location due to geographic reasons. The mentioned river that may dry up should be a small branch of it.

After the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Loulan began to hide in the history books. Experts inferred that it might have disappeared in the early Tang Dynasty, and I can't see what age I am in front of. This is really not favorable.

And if this is really Loulan, then my idea is probably valid.

The lack of water sources and economic backwardness are the basis for my inference that it is part of the ancient country of Loulan, and it is also the reason why Loulan disappeared that scholars and experts agree.

For a long time, all kinds of sayings have blossomed, or perished due to disasters, or migrated due to lack of water, or declined due to disease, or disappeared due to war.

But if what I expected is good, the real reason is the Lord of the City!

Going against the sky, going crazy, the sky will not let him go, and a large number of thunder catastrophes will follow closely. But he was already delirious, and he didn't know what crazy actions he made.

This is in Loulan, so the first one he encounters after flying away will definitely be another Loulan city.

Regardless of the extent of the damage, his crossing will surely bring danger and destruction!

The backward economy, the shortage of drinking water, and the destruction of this lunatic! The ancient Loulan country is even worse! Perhaps there is also the surrounding war. After all, such a person rushed out of Loulan, causing harm to other countries and then left. How could they not be angry?

As a result, this once powerful country came to an end...

Thousands of years of history, countless changes in the vicissitudes of life, do not know how many countries, tribes, and civilizations have disappeared in this long river of history.

A country that was once powerful like this, lost its traces unclearly, and dimmed its brilliance in the desert, which is really embarrassing. However, I feel that this kind of thing can be done at any time in the past, and now, it is the life course of the girl, that is, the future Skeleton Queen.

But this life is too short...

As in the general story, a group of several people walked in the border desert. The soldiers in the city were killed and injured. At this time, there were only a handful of soldiers who looked like soldiers. They still followed the orders of the lord of the city. Escort these people to other cities and to a safe place.

But the vast desert is full of bandits, drifters, militant tribes and so on. They have armed forces, weapons, and even horses, and there are many times more people than them!

When they met these people, what was their ability to escape from these people?

The soldiers died first. In order to protect these people, they took out weapons and rushed to this group of powerful enemies that were several times their own, and then they came to justice.

People run wildly, but how can two legs run over four legs? This group of money-and-death bandits would not estimate that, nor would they be willing to let anyone go!

Killing lives and making money are everyday things for them.

A scream sounded, a splash of blood spurted out, a corpse fell, and then, as if copying and pasting, the scene repeated around.

The girl's parents wanted to protect the child, but how could they beat the ruthless iron blade?

That poor girl, in just one short night, experienced the most tragic fate of time, saw the most tragic evil, lost her home, lost friends, lost loved ones, and lost everything about her!

The city disappeared, and the familiar people became bones in the desert. At this time, even the parents were buried in the hands of the gangster, and died in front of him.

And myself...

When I saw this, I shook my head and sighed. I wanted to close my eyes and not see what was going to happen next, but it was impossible. In my soul state, my eyelids would not work at all, and my sight could not be avoided at all.

Uninhabited deserts, fierce bandits, and young and beautiful girls at the time, what will be the story, needless to say, you will know...

The girl’s helpless cry, the gangster’s nasty smile, the torn clothes, and the pool of blood that represented something... And after their group of beasts took turns once, this girl who was already delirious, She was brutally murdered, and like her parents, she became a corpse in the desert.

No one knows who she is, no one knows where she comes from, and where she is going. Naturally, no one cares about who did it. Anyway, what happened here is not new.

When the story is here, it seems that it should be over. The best result is that the group of gangsters and villains are punished and killed, and this is over.

But maybe the girl was too grieving, or it was a certain day at the time, or another coincidence. This young girl unexpectedly returned to her soul after death, and her soul was attached to her own body!

The resurrection happened one month after her death. At that time, her body was already destroyed, and only the skeleton was gnawed by carrion-eating insects and beasts. She can only live in this way, relying on collecting the essence of the sun and moon, barely maintaining her life and strengthening her strength.

And in this desert, the most indispensable are the dead and the unjust souls. Those ghosts kill each other, devour each other due to their nature, enhance their strength, and will form cliques and continue to grow.

Perhaps it was the reason for the heavy resentment. After the original innocent girl became this skeleton, she was extremely hostile! After discovering these ghosts, she immediately joined the ranks of them hunting and killing each other, and soon became the best among them, dominating one side, and becoming the local demon!

Centipede Great Demon Canglan, also joined at that time.

Moreover, after a subsequent coincidence, with the help of Canglan, she mastered the power of several elements, greatly increased her strength, and instantly became one of the strongest in the world!

And when the cultivation base was reached, her mind gradually became a little clearer, and she was no longer the bloodthirsty demon who killed at will because of grievances, but restored some of the feelings of the past, thinking of the city, thinking of it. My parents also thought of those acquaintances.

So, she took her men and built this city here. The appearance and layout were completely designed according to the city in her memory, but it was naturally much smaller because she did not remember the entire city. Look like.

On the periphery of the ancient city, Canglan fills in the formation, which is invisible to ordinary people. Even the mage can't find it from a distance. You have to be close to detect it. And she started to return to the home in the memory, taking out bones and corpses one after another from the sand, taking away the wandering soul floating in time, and bringing it back to this ancient city.

The memories of her youth are the beauty of her life. She misses that street, misses those people, and hopes to recover her body.

So she asked Canglan to find a way to transform them back into humans and resurrect them. Canglan thought for a long time before she found the way to satisfy her, which is to rob others of their bodies, rob others of their souls, and cleanse them through extremely complicated spells. After the memory inside, only the pure soul body is kept and injected into the skeletons without the mind.

I have to say that Canglan is a genius. This method can be thought of by him, and it can be completed to the present level!

And in her memory, I did see it. Because of her hatred of the bandits, when she was looking for the body and soul, she chose those wicked people, which is also karma. It's just because she wants to restore the beautiful city in her memory too much. Sometimes, it is unavoidable to act too hastily and not completely confirm the identity of the other party. There are also many good people who died unjustly.

I watched the scenes, like a movie, in thousands of years, a little girl, from a weak skeleton to the current generation of devil skull queen, this city has also developed to such a scale!

It's a pity that I slaughtered most of this night, and I didn't think I was wrong. Is she wrong? It's not accurate, I can only say that good luck makes people, and she pursues a beautiful way, which is too extreme and bad. Although she has tried her best to make her way sound beautiful, but...who would really admit this method? ?

That's it, that's it...

I shook my head and smiled bitterly.

It’s useless to sympathize with her at this moment. If I knew all this earlier, it might be okay. But at this time, I’m in trouble and fighting back. If I want to keep her alive, I will give up Hu Jie, so I have no retreat. .

After the memory was played back, it seemed as if the movie had ended, and it became white again. Then, a rose gold world appeared, which looked noble and dreamy, and the shape of the world resembled that capsule, but this time I was also inside.

Suddenly, in front of my eyes, a figure appeared, with nothing, eyes closed.

"Hu Jie!"

When I saw her, I shouted out immediately, and the next moment, beside Hu Jie, a figure appeared beside Hu Jie, who also looked like a girl.

This is the Queen of Skeletons!

In other words... it was the girl from that year!
