"No wonder my watch has been moving and stopping for the past two days. I thought it was broken.”
"Master Xiaoyang, is this magnetic mountain the Ziglama Mountain?”
Wang Yang nodded and said,"
"That's right! I've heard people say that there are two sacred mountains, one red and one white, in the heart of the Black Desert. Legend has it that these two sacred mountains are the burial grounds of the previous sages.”
Shirley Yang also took out a diary. It was left behind by an explorer.
It recorded how this explorer passed through the Zagramma Mountains and found the ancient city.
However, Wang Yang said,
"This does look like the entrance to Jingjue City, but I have to remind everyone that we don't have much water and food left.”
"If we don't find the sacred mountain by tomorrow, I'm afraid we'll have to turn back.”
Wang Yang looked up at the scorching sun. If this continued, he might not be able to last until tomorrow.
"Let's rest here. We'll dig a sand pit to reduce the loss of water. We'll find the location of the magnetic mountain in the evening when it's cooler.”
Unknowingly, Wang Yang had also taken on the role of the team leader.
Everyone was already used to it and even felt that Wang Yang was very suitable.
After the group dug the sand pit, they covered it with a tarpaulin and lay in the sand pit.
At this moment, Ye Yixin suddenly fell into the sand pit. Xue Li Yang hurriedly grabbed her hand and said,"
"Not good, it's quicksand! Quickly pull her up."
The others saw that Ye Yixin was about to sink, so they hurried forward to help.
Only Wang Yang remained unmoved.
Chu Jian and Sa Dipeng had long been dissatisfied with Wang Yang. Seeing this, they immediately criticized,
"Wang Yang, why didn't you help me?”
"That's right. I didn't expect you to be so cold-blooded!”
Fatty immediately came out and transformed into the best lackey. He said,
"Mother, what do you know? So many of us have already made a move. Ye Yixin will definitely be fine. Why do we need Master Yang to do anything?!”
"None of you have much ability, but you're the best at nitpicking!”
"Can't you let Master Yang rest for a while? So many men had to trouble Master Yang with everything?!”
Fatty was quite competent as a lackey. Wang Yang nodded and said lightly,
"You guys are making a fuss over nothing. If it was really quicksand, we would have fallen into it long ago.”
"Ye Yixin must have stepped into a pit.”
As expected, after Hu Bayi and the others pulled Ye Yixin up, they found a stone slab underneath.
The middle of the stone slab had cracked. It was probably where Ye Yixin had stepped on.
"Look! In terms of understanding of the desert, who could compare to Master Yang?!”
"Quicksand? It's just a pit."
Chu Jian and the other two were embarrassed by Fatty's words and went back to hiding like turtles without saying a word.
"Alright, Fatty, stop talking.”
Although he was his teammate, Fatty's face was too arrogant. Hu Ba couldn't take it and came out to smooth things over.
Xue Li Yang apologized awkwardly. If she hadn't shouted for quicksand, everyone wouldn't have been so flustered.
She was also misled by Chu Jian and Wang Yang, causing her to misunderstand Wang Yang. In the future, he would only watch from the sidelines.
It turned out that Wang Yang had already seen through the trick.
"Mr. Wang…I'm sorry…I…"
Wang Yang waved his hand. He didn't take it to heart at all.
"It's okay. You did it to save people.”
Xue Li Yang's heart warmed. She didn't expect this man to be so understanding.
Huba studied the hole Ye Yixin had made and concluded,"
"Everyone, this hole should be man-made. It should be a precise small-scale directional explosion.”
"Master Yang, I used to be an engineer, so I'm very familiar with this scene.”
Fatty nodded in agreement.
"This should be a stone tomb. It should be the work of grave robbers. I'm afraid there's nothing inside.”
Along the way, they had already seen several stone tombs being destroyed by grave robbers.
Therefore, Professor Chen and Professor Hao were also a little anxious and asked them to go in and take a look.
Hu Bayi's injuries were almost healed. This time, he volunteered to go down with Fatty to investigate. When he came back, he reported,
"There are only a few destroyed dried corpses inside. I'm afraid they have been looted by grave robbers.”
"Sigh! This was too much. If these grave robbers were not stopped, there would probably be nothing left in the future!”
Professor Chen sighed and looked a little angry. These grave robbers wanted everything, even dried corpses.
"Teacher, don't be too angry. It's bad for your health.”
"That's right, Teacher. When we go back, we must think of a way to report the situation of grave robbers to the country and stop them!”
Hearing Sa Dipeng and Chu Jiantian's words, Wang Yang shook his head and laughed.
There were too many flaws in this sentence.
Not to mention whether the grave robbers could be effectively stopped, whether the two of them could return was still a question mark.
However, with this stone tomb, it was extremely cool inside.
It was a rare summer resort in the desert.
It was a good place to rest.
They would continue their journey at dusk.
Lying in the tomb, Hu Bayi also felt a little tired. In addition, his injuries had not fully recovered, and he had already obtained a few treasures this time. Therefore, he had the intention to retreat and said,
"Master Yang, Miss Yang, I think it's too dangerous to continue.”
"To be safe, I think we should go back first. Next time, we'll come back when we've brought everything.”
Xue Li Yang was in a hurry to find Jingjue Ancient City, so she immediately retorted,
"We're already close to the Magnetic Mountain, and we're only a step away from finding the Ancient City of Jingjue.”
Hu Ba pointed at Ye Yixin and said.
"I didn't mean that, Miss Yang. Look, Ye Yixin seems to have a fever, and the others 'bodies can't support it anymore.”
"I'm just thinking about everyone. There's no need to risk my life for this matter. At most, we'll come again next time.”
The two professors of the archeological team were also tormented. They agreed with Hu Bayi and thought that it was safer to go back.
However, Xue Li Yang still insisted on finding the Ancient City of Jingjue. As long as they found the Ancient City of Jingjue, they would be able to find the underground river. At that time, they would have a water source to replenish themselves.
At this moment, everyone looked at Wang Yang in unison.
In their hearts, Wang Yang had long become their backbone.
