Chapter 243 The exquisite ancient city

 The black stone contains special magnetism. As people get closer, they feel that the metal objects they carry are gradually becoming heavier.

There seems to be something wrong with the meteorite box that Chen Yulou has been carrying. The insects inside keep hitting the lid of the box.

Chen Yulou quickly put a drop of blood to feed the insects before calming them down.

"It seems there is something wrong inside, otherwise my bugs wouldn't be so violent."

"Is it possible that it is the influence of Cishan?" Ye Bai guessed.

Chen Yulou nodded: "I don't rule out this possibility, but I'm afraid I won't be able to bring my zerg in."

Chen Yulou still thought about bringing the insects into the tomb to kill everyone, but now it seems that this is not feasible.

Ye Bai thought for a while and said: "In this case, Karama, Hua Ling and the old foreigner will stay outside to look at the luggage."

Ye Bai was still worried about encountering unpredictable dangers below, so it would be better if the foreigner Hua Ling stayed above to take care of him.

The system has not yet prompted a prompt, and I don’t know what level of tomb this exquisite ancient city is.

But after hearing this, Hua Ling and the old foreigner disagreed ten thousand times.

On this trip, they ran with others in the depths of the desert, not only for themselves, but also for the sake of their tribe.

If they were left above and Ye Bai and others were allowed to do the most dangerous things, their consciences would also be uneasy.

Partridge Whistle knew exactly what his junior brothers and sisters were thinking, so he whispered a few words into Ye Bai's ear.

Later, Ye Bai glanced at Hua Ling and said, "Hua Ling can go down with us, and the old foreigner can stay up there."

Huarington always smiled, while the old foreigner showed a miserable face.

Brother Xiaobai is too biased.

The Partridge Whistle stepped forward and hammered the old foreigner on the chest: "Don't be so sluggish, kid. Your task up there is no lighter than ours. If something happens to us, we need you to come and help us at any time."

The old foreigner scratched his head, knowing that his senior brother was trying to comfort him.

If there is a crisis that Ye Bai and others cannot solve, then there is no point in him going.

Later, Ye Bai explained to Karama and the old foreigner, and led the others into the Zagrama Sacred Mountain on foot.

At this time, the sun has not fully risen, and it is still dark in the mountain pass.

Ye Bai remembered that there was a black-headed monster snake here in the original work, so he asked everyone to turn on their flashlights.

But it may be due to the magnetic field, poor battery contact, and the light flickers.

This mountain was regarded as a sacred mountain by ancient people, and it may indeed have some strange abilities.

From the perspective of Feng Shui alone, this place can be considered to dominate the terrain and swallow up everything. The black mountain is two stationed black dragons, born with the sun.

The passage goes from north to south and reaches the middle of the mountain pass. The mountains on both sides completely block the sun's rays.

It’s damp, cold, and dark here!

There was a strange movement from the rocks in front. Ye Bai shot out a flying knife from his hand and nailed a black-eyed monster snake to the magnet. Then he said in a deep voice: "Be careful, there are quite a few."

Chen Yulou didn't like these strange snakes, so he fired the prepared flares.

"Whoosh!"

Flares exploded at high altitude.

Under the white light, all the black-eyed monster snakes turned into black charcoal. Only some black-eyed monster snakes in the cracks of rocks escaped.

Black-eyed monster snakes are extremely difficult to deal with. Even a person with the skill of Partridge Whistle may be bitten by accident, but if their weaknesses are known in advance, they are extremely easy to deal with.

After everyone cleaned up the remaining black-eyed monster snakes, they moved on.

On the road after that, no one encountered any danger again.

After leaving the mountain pass, what everyone saw was the ruins of a dilapidated city.

Judging from the appearance of this city, it seems to be even worse than the ancient city of Xiye.

"This is the exquisite ancient city? There are only broken walls and tiles left, what else can you find?" Chen Yulou was disappointed.

At this time, Ye Bai's system popped up a prompt.

"Jingjue Ancient City: An ancient city in the Western Regions buried by black wind and sand. It contains countless treasures. Queen Jingjue is buried here."

"Danger level: Moderate!"

"Contains a treasure chest: a silver treasure chest!"

The system prompt did not surprise Ye Bai. It was medium danger and it was still a silver treasure chest, which was similar to what he had guessed before.

As long as it's not a high-level danger, everything is easy to say. If he encounters a monster of King Xian's level, he now has no backup plan to restrain it.

But Ye Bai was a little confused.

In the introduction, Queen Jingjue sleeps here?

Is the long sleep mentioned by the system alive? Or dead?

The distance from the mountain pass to the ancient city is very close, but the city gate collapsed in disgrace, and the ditch in front of the city has not been filled with yellow sand.

The seven Ye Bai people entered the city through the remains of the city wall, and the surrounding ruins were completely silent.

The streets and houses in the city are dilapidated, and most of them have collapsed. When you walk in, you will see that they are all sand and rotten wood.

Chen Yulou stepped on something hard and dug out a white skeleton, still wearing decayed armor.

Perhaps, the records of Senior Bishan are true. When the thirty-six-nation coalition attacked Jingjue Ancient City, a black wind and sand buried both the coalition forces and Jingjue Ancient City deeply at the same time.

With the movement of the desert in recent years, the ancient city has finally seen the light of day again.

The seven people scattered among the ruins of the ancient city, looking for a way forward. Ye Bai knew that the entrance to the tomb was in the middle of the ancient city, but he was not in a hurry. Maybe there was something valuable hidden in the ruins.

Others are doing their best to explore the specific location where Queen Jingjue is buried.

The golden abacus was used to calculate, Zhang Jiuyi's middle finger and index finger were close together, and he was mumbling something. Partridge Xiao and Hualing pointed their fingers at one place, as if they were discussing. Only Chen Yulou carried a shovel and dug all the way.

Soon, everyone gathered in the middle of the ancient city.

There are no other buildings around, except for the yellow sand, there is only a leaning black tower.

The Black Tower is entirely carved from magnets and is six stories high. In addition to its special construction materials, there is also a large black stone ball on the top of the Black Tower.

Everyone walked around the black tower and found an arched stone door under the tower on the other side, but half of the stone door was buried in the yellow sand.

Not surprisingly, Shimen is the entrance.

Chen Yulou stepped forward to dig with a shovel in hand. Soon, the yellow sand outside the stone gate was cleaned up. Ye Bai pushed open the stone gate and walked in first.

The walls of the tower are densely engraved with strange characters. No one here recognizes them. They only think that the fonts are very familiar and should be the inherited characters of the Jingjue clan.

Ye Bai thought of Professor Chen who came to the ancient city in a group with Hu Ba in later generations. This person specializes in studying ancient characters. He should be able to decipher the meaning behind the characters.

Ye Bai felt a little emotional. Even the most skilled tomb robbers are fundamentally different from archaeological researchers.

There are six floors in the black tower, and everyone circulates all the way up.

There is a statue of a stone sheep on the first floor, symbolizing the beast.

There is a stone statue on the second floor, which is about the same size as an ordinary person. It has a high nose and deep eyes. It is half-kneeling in the tower. It looks like an ordinary person, but it is no different from a slave.

There is a giant-eyed stone statue on the third floor, which is still humanoid.

The fourth floor is a bit strange. It is a snake-like figure with thick limbs, holding a sword and shield, and a male face.

Everyone realized that with each level higher, the status of the stone statue became more noble.
