Michelle took out the lighter from her pocket, bringing a long-lost light to the dark underground palace.
"My dear, do you think the underground palace we are in now will be filled with gold, silver and jewelry as described in the film?" Michelle, who was refreshed, was like an explorer.
, holding the lighter, looking here and there, very busy.
Ye Feng was not as carefree as Michelle. With the faint light from the lighter, he removed a door frame and wrapped it with pieces of cloth Michelle picked up from the corner of the palace to make two torches.
The torch burned, and the palace became much brighter.
"The pieces of cloth you just picked up are all linen made of sisal fiber. From this point of view, the residents here should have lived in ancient times. At that time, the textile industry was not developed, so that there were no buildings in the palace.
You have to use this rough linen." Ye Feng held up the torch and carefully observed the situation in the palace.
"In ancient times, that era must have been very long ago. Hehe, I guess there must be a lot of treasures here. My dear, you wait for me here, and I will help you find treasures." Michelle left a string of silver bells.
With a laugh like that, he held up a torch and ran quickly to several nearby rooms.
Looking at Michelle's back, Ye Feng smiled and shook his head, standing there, quietly admiring this huge underground palace.
The palace is empty, most of the daily necessities have been taken away, except for some ceramic pots piled in the corners. The walls of the palace are mostly made of rammed earth, with colorful murals painted on them. Unfortunately, due to the age, these
Most of the exquisite murals have weathered and fallen off. The remaining remnants of the murals shine with brilliant brilliance under the firelight, as if telling people about its past glory.
There are eight stone pillars standing in the palace, with some mysterious and weird hieroglyphs engraved on them. There are people, the sun, the moon, mountains and rivers, animals, flowers and trees...
Reminiscent of seeing these ancient hieroglyphs in ancient palaces when traveling in Egypt in the early years. Ye Feng secretly guessed that these hieroglyphs probably recorded the daily life of this ancient society.
There was a sound of footsteps, and Michelle returned to Ye Feng with empty hands and a frustrated face.
"My dear, it's really strange. This palace is empty." Michelle sighed and said in a depressed tone. "Not to mention gold, silver and jewelry, there are not even some ordinary daily necessities. Alas.
, we two are really unlucky, after working for most of the day, we just found an empty city."
"Empty city." Ye Feng was not sad but happy, with a faint smile on his face, and said. "The palace is empty, which just shows that the palace was not suddenly annihilated by the quicksand. Perhaps the residents here found that the quicksand was slow.
After the epidemic invaded their city, they calmly launched a planned migration. They left calmly, taking away all the daily necessities in the palace, and no one died in the quicksand. This is God's mercy."
Ye Feng's broad and compassionate mind swept away the depression in Michelle's heart, and a bright smile bloomed on her charming cheeks. Michelle held Ye Feng's arm and said lovingly, "Dear
, if you lived in ancient times, you would definitely be a king widely loved by the world."
Ye Feng smiled slightly, lowered his head and kissed Michelle on the cheek, and said lightly, "Okay, let's get ready to go out now."
"My dear, how are we going to get out?" Michelle looked up at the ceiling and said worriedly. "I don't know how thick the sand layer covering the palace is. Can we get back to the ground again?"
"I have calculated the height here. From the quicksand vortex on the surface to this underground palace, it is almost more than thirty meters high. If we want to peel off the sand layer covering the palace and walk to the ground again, it is simply impossible.
Moreover, as long as we are not careful, we will break the balance of the desert surface again and encounter more turbulent quicksand." Ye Feng shook his head and said with a bitter smile. "If that happens, the two of us will
I’m afraid I will be buried alive here.”
"Crow's mouth, don't say such unlucky words." Michelle stuck out her tongue playfully, shook Ye Feng's arm, and said coquettishly. "If I really can't go out, I would rather stay in this underground palace with you for the rest of my life.
.”
"My dear, the two of us live here, and I will treat you like a king. Hehe, you can do whatever you want. I can be your princess or your maid." Michelle snuggled up.
In Ye Feng's arms, he said lovingly, "My dear, I don't want you to take risks, let alone lose you."
"Living in this dark world." Ye Feng held up the torch, looked around the space, and said jokingly. "This is a good idea. There are no other women here. I guess you, a jealous person, will not be jealous anymore."
"Humph." Michelle curled her lips and muttered. "I know you can't let go of your beautiful lovers."
Ye Feng laughed, ignored Michelle's jealousy, reached out and patted Michelle's pink buttocks, and said, "Okay, beautiful maid, help me find it quickly to see if there is a well nearby.
"
"Honey, are you thirsty?" Michelle asked.
"The scarcest thing in the desert is drinking water, so cities in the desert are usually built near oasis. This morning, the reason why I chose the ambush location among the sand dunes is because there is an oasis nearby. There is an oasis nearby.
Ambushing the enemy will also make it easier for us to replenish supplies." Ye Feng lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said. "If I remember correctly, the oasis should be about five kilometers southwest."
Ye Feng did not directly answer Michelle's question, which made Michelle very puzzled. She blinked and said in confusion, "What is the relationship between wells and oasis."
Ye Feng laughed, holding Michelle's little hand, and the two walked forward side by side. "In the desert, water wells are usually connected to underground rivers. As long as we can find the water wells, we can dive into the underground rivers."
River, if you sneak along the underground river to the southwest, you will find the oasis."
Ye Feng raised the torch, looked at the empty palace, and continued. "This palace is so huge, there must be a lot of people living here. To feed so many people, it would be too time-consuming and laborious just to fetch water from the oasis every day."
, I think, there must be a well here."
"Well, underground river, oasis." Michelle repeated these words in her mouth and said worriedly. "Dear, have you been to an underground river? I remember seeing it in a geography magazine, desert
The underground rivers below are crisscrossed, and the place where they meet is like an ocean, vast and boundless. What if we can't find the way to the oasis after diving into the underground rivers?"
"I have never entered the underground river." Ye Feng held Michelle's little hand tightly and said firmly. "This is our only way to survive. I think we will reach the oasis smoothly."
A woman's mind is fickle, and a woman in love takes a man's words as a golden rule. Just now, Michelle said she didn't want to go out and planned to stay in this underground palace with Ye Feng for the rest of her life.
, now seeing Ye Feng's resolute attitude, he immediately became submissive and nodded frequently.
"My dear, I will help you find a well right away." Michelle raised her pretty face and kissed Ye Feng on the cheek. Then she held a torch and walked through the palace lightly, like a twinkling bird.
Fireflies with crystal light were wandering around in the dark palace.
Looking at Michelle's graceful figure, Ye Feng smiled and shook his head, quickened his pace, followed Michelle, and carefully inspected every corner of the palace.
Along the way, although Ye Feng didn't find any water wells, he still gained a lot.
In a room, Ye Feng found a skin bag for holding water. He checked it carefully and found that the skin bag was sewn very tightly, so he brushed off the dust on it and stuffed it into his arms.
In another room, Ye Feng found a simple wooden bow on the mottled wall. In addition, he also found several bundles of feather arrows in the corner of the room.
Previously, due to a sudden encounter with quicksand, except for the blood drink that Ye Feng regarded as a treasure and always carried it close to his body, most of the other weapons Ye Feng carried were left behind in the desert.
At this moment, Ye Feng was very happy to find a wooden bow in this empty palace. Ye Feng stretched out his hand and pulled the bow to its full length. He felt that this bow was of the highest quality in terms of material, hardness, strength and accuracy.
Ye Feng put Tuomu's bow on his back, then took out the Desert Eagle with only three bullets left from his waist, and hung it on the wall.
"One thing for another." A faint smile appeared on Ye Feng's face. He bent down to pick up the arrows scattered in the corner and stuffed a full quiver.
There were still strong pursuers in the desert, and Ye Feng needed to prepare enough weapons to meet the enemy. Looking at the remaining arrows, Ye Feng found a piece of linen cloth and wrapped the fine quality arrows, together with the quiver.
Carry it on your back.
At this time, Michelle shouted ecstatically not far away. "Honey, come quickly, I found the well."
Ye Feng quickly walked out of the room and ran in the direction of Michelle, following the sound.
Michelle stood next to a well platform made of stone slabs, bent over and looking at the spring water in the well. When she heard Ye Feng's footsteps, Michelle said without raising her head. "My dear, you
Listen, the water in the well has been gurgling upwards. It seems that there is really an underground river underneath."
Gudong, Gudong... The spring water surged, and the sound was clear and sweet. It seemed like a beautiful melody, which suddenly added infinite vitality to this lifeless palace.
"Very good, we are ready to take action." A faint smile appeared on Ye Feng's face. He took out the leather bag he just found in the room from his arms, squeezed out the remaining dirty air inside, and then took a deep breath of air without passing through the lungs.
If there is internal circulation, blow hard into the skin bag immediately.
Michelle turned around and looked at Ye Feng blowing air into the bag, with a smile on her charming cheeks. "My dear, what are you doing?"
Ye Feng continued to blow into the bag for more than ten minutes. When he felt that the bag was full, he stopped, held the mouth of the bag tightly with both hands, and carefully tied the bag with a strip of cloth. Then he handed the full bag to
Michelle said, "This is your oxygen bottle. The air inside is enough for you to breathe for half an hour."
"Oxygen bottle." Michelle took the bag and said with a smile, "My dear, you are so smart."
"I am your man, so of course I have to take good care of you." Ye Feng pointed to the cloth strip at the mouth of the bag and said with a smile. "After entering the water, you can pull the cloth strip a little, and then you can use the air inside.
.”
Michelle held up the bag, put her pretty face against the mouth of the bag, and gently sniffed the scent of the bag.
"My dear, this smell is all of you. It's light and warm. I like this feeling so much, as if I'm being held tightly in your arms."
