At this moment, the sky had gradually brightened.
A huge sun slowly rose from the east.
It lit up the entire valley of Mount Zagramma.
After the archeological team passed through the valley, they saw a shocking scene under the light of dawn!
In front of them, the ruins of an ancient city stood quietly in the desert!
This ancient city occupied a huge area.
Compared to the West Night Ancient City, it was more than ten times bigger.
This was the legendary city cursed by God!
It was also the most mysterious city in the Western Regions!
Jingjue Ancient City!
More than 2,000 years ago, Jingjue Country rose like a comet and became the most powerful country among the 36 countries in the Western Region.
All the other countries,
They were all affiliated kingdoms!
One could imagine how powerful this country was.
However, perhaps it was because Jingjue Country was too powerful that in many legends of the Western Regions, Jingjue Country was cursed by the gods and a sandstorm completely buried the country.
The brilliant Jingjue Kingdom,
It disappeared into the dust of history.
Now, this incomparably powerful Jingjue Ancient City was once again displayed in the eyes of the world.
"Jingjue Ancient City, I finally saw Jingjue Ancient City!”At this moment, Professor Chen was as happy as a child.
His lifelong wish had finally come true!
"Did you see that? Aiguo, did you see that? We've finally arrived at Jingjue City. Your dream has come true!”
Professor Chen was crying and laughing at the same time.
At this moment, everyone smiled.
"Old Hu, we can finally get twenty thousand dollars!”Fatty said excitedly.
"Can't you be more promising?" Hu Bayi couldn't help but facepalm.
"Hehe, if a good-for-nothing can get 20,000 dollars every day, I'm willing to be a good-for-nothing for the rest of my life.”Fatty said indifferently.
When everyone heard this, they could not help but laugh.
At this moment, Professor Chen took out Hao Aiguo's ashes.
"Little Chu, let's bury our country here!”
"Yes, Professor."
Chu Jian's eyes were red. In this group of people, besides Professor Chen, he had the deepest feelings for Hao Aiguo.
They dug a pit and buried the ashes inside. Hao Aiguo's information was written on a wooden sign.
"Good luck, teacher!"
"Aiguo, go in peace!"
“……”
After bidding farewell to Hao Aiguo, everyone wanted to continue moving forward.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, An Liman knelt down and kowtowed a few times devoutly. He even muttered some scriptures that he did not understand!
"Old man, what's wrong?" Fatty asked.
"This is a place cursed by Hu Da, I won't go in.”
" Old Master, we've already come this far, and you suddenly said that you can't go in. This..." Hu Bayi felt a headache coming on.
"You can go. Even if you kill me, I won't go in.”An Liman said lightly.
"Hey, did this old man give you face?”
Fatty wanted to make a move on the spot.
With his bad temper, he was furious when he heard this.
"Hey, Fatty, calm down."
Chen Cang stood up." Old Master, do you really not want to go in?”
"Yes, my camel and I will not enter a place that has been cursed by Hu Da.”
Everyone looked at each other and Chen Cang continued,"Alright then, Old Master. Why don't you wait for us here?”
"Sure!"
On the other side, everyone started discussing.
Fatty,"Hey, what if this old man runs away with the camel?"”
Shirley Yang: " Don't worry. If he dares to run, I won't give him a single cent."”
"Why don't I stay here and watch him?"”
"No."
"Fatty, you have to come with us," Hu Bayi said.”
"Am I really that important?"
Everyone glanced at him and ignored him.
"Hey, what do you mean?"”
Chen Cang walked to An Liman's side and said,"Old Master, how will Hu Da deal with people who lie?”
An Liman thought for a moment." Well, it will turn his money into sand and his salt into sand. He will starve to death and suffer in the hot sand hell after he dies!”
"En, then the old man should stay here well, right?" Chen Cang smiled.”
"Of course, we're friends!" said An Liman with a forced smile.”
"Yes, friend!"
Chen Cang also laughed.
……
After solving An Liman's problem.
Everyone packed their luggage and set off for Jingjue Ancient City.
They arrived at the ruins of Jingjue Ancient City.
Most of the buildings here had been buried by the sandstorm, leaving only some ruins. One could still vaguely see the glory of the past.
Looking at the huge ruins of the ancient city, Hu Bayi couldn't help but ask,""Professor Chen, what should we do now?”
Professor Chen leaned on a stick and was panting from exhaustion. He pointed at the center of the city and said,"Let's go to the center of the city first. That's the political center of the ancient city. The temple of the Jingjue Nation is also there. There must be an underground palace under the temple, and there must be an underground river.”
Shirley Yang nodded." Let's go and replenish the water source first. Our water source has been used up.”
"Where is the temple?"
"Generally speaking, the temple is the most prestigious place in the entire city. It is usually at the highest point of the city and symbolizes supreme power!”
As they walked, they asked Professor Chen for advice.
When they reached the center of the city, everyone looked around but did not find anything. The buildings of the ancient city were all buried by the wind and sand.
Suddenly, Hu Bayi pointed at a building that was buried by the sandstorm.
"Look, doesn't it look like an eye?”
"No, Old Hu, are your eyes blurry?”Fatty asked in confusion.
"No, that really looks like an eye.”
The group walked to a high ground and looked at the place Hu Bayi had mentioned. There was indeed a black hole above. The hole looked like an eye, as if it was looking at them.
It made one's hair stand on end!
" That's the highest place in the city center," Professor Chen said excitedly." The Ghost Cave Tribe respects eyes very much, so I'm guessing that it's very likely to be the temple!"”
"Haha, then what are we waiting for?”Fatty took the lead and rushed towards the building.
"Hey, Fatty, be careful. Be careful not to run into the black snake again.”Hu Bayi could only shout helplessly from behind.
The group arrived in front of the building. Most of it was buried by the sandstorm, but fortunately, they quickly found an entrance.
After entering the cave, it was pitch-black inside. The sunlight shone through the cave, and they could only see the situation beside the cave.
Hu Bayi turned on the flashlight and carefully observed the surroundings.
This was a temple!
Everyone walked in and immediately saw pillars. These pillars were symmetrical on both sides and were engraved with various patterns.
The two pillars closest to the entrance of the cave seemed to have some slaves carved on them. These slaves were constantly moving stones under the waving of long whips.
Everyone continued to walk forward, carefully observing the pictures carved on the pillars.
" I know." Professor Chen suddenly said," These pillars are from the outside to the inside. They are carved with slaves, civilians, and guardian beasts…"
"As well as the priest, Black Snake, and Queen Jingjue!”
"The portraits carved on these pillars are the social classes of Jingjue Country!”
