Chapter 1922 Strange Ancient City

Chapter 1922 Strange Ancient City

Yun Duoduo looked at Gu Yuan and said with some reluctance: "Brother Gu Yuan, can you not leave?"

Gu Yuan shook his head and said: "Duoduo, I have to go back. My friends and family are waiting for me to go back!"

Yun Duoduo felt a little sad and said no more.

The two were silent for a while, and Gu Yuan changed the topic.

"Duoduo, is there an ancient city in your secret realm of Xuankun Mountain?

Is it dangerous there?"

Yun Duoduo was stunned for a moment, blinked her eyes and began to recall. She was indeed distracted and was obviously not that sad anymore.

"I don't know, I only know that there has never been an ancient city in our secret realm of Xuankun Mountain..."

Yun Duoduo tilted her little head, thought about it carefully and then said in confusion: "It shouldn't be, how can there be an ancient city in the secret realm of Zhenhuo Hall?

As far as I know, it is impossible for an ancient city to appear in the secret realm of Shangjiuxing Sect."

"Only in the United Secret Realm can the ancient city appear."

"What is the joint secret realm?"

"It is a secret realm that several sects work together to open. As for how long it can be opened, it depends on how much resources each sect invests.

Generally speaking, it lasts up to seven days. It is very rare for a secret realm like the one we entered this time to last for such a long time."

"Our secret realm this time should be almost over, right?"

"I don't know how to calculate time. The time in the secret realm and the outside world are not synchronized.

But I don’t think it will take more than three days, it should be between one or two days.”

"But if there is no ancient city in this secret realm, then what did Chen Shu and the others see?"

"Don't think so much first, wait until you get to the place and take a look before talking."

Gu Yuan took out the map and looked at it carefully.

According to the clues Chen Shu gave them before, the abandoned ancient city should be deep in the Gobi Desert, on the edge of the dry lake.

Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo trudged hard against the scorching sun above their heads.

After walking for a long time, I finally saw the lake that Chen Shu had mentioned had completely dried up.

This lake, which was originally supposed to cover an extremely large area, has now become a huge dry pit.

If it weren't for the clues provided by Chen Shu before, he would have preconceivedly told Gu Yuan that this was a dry lake.

Gu Yuan would even think that this was a great rift valley created by the earthquake.

They walked around the dry lake little by little.

The sky was filled with gravel, and there was no reference point. The two of them had no idea how long they had been walking in this yellow sand under the scorching sun.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew in the Gobi Desert.

The strong wind swept away a large amount of yellow sand on the Gobi Desert, turning the world into a haze.

The violent wind and sand blew Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo so hard that they could not even walk steadily, and they could not open their eyes.

Afraid that Yun Duoduo would be blown into the pit by the wind and sand, Gu Yuan held Yun Duoduo's hand tightly along the way.

The two of them almost kept their eyes closed, relying on Gu Yuan to explore the path with his feet little by little in front, and reluctantly kept moving forward.

I don’t know how long I walked in the yellow sand.

It wasn't until they felt the wind and sand hitting their faces gradually subsided that they opened their eyes.

As soon as they opened their eyes, the two of them were stunned by the sight in front of them.

A majestic ancient city with a collapsed city wall, and even dilapidated houses could be seen near the city wall, suddenly appeared in front of Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo.

Looking at the dilapidated city wall more than ten meters high.

There is also a city gate that was lost somewhere, but it is large enough for several carts to pass through side by side.

Who would have thought that such a majestic city would exist in the Gobi Desert filled with yellow sand.

Finally found.

Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo carefully walked into this former majestic city.

After walking through the deep city gate, you will see a straight and spacious street.

It's a pity that it should have been a very prosperous and busy street in the past.

Now all that's left is a mess of yellow sand and dead grass.

On both sides of the street, those tall and exquisite buildings that used to be tall and exquisite are now only fragments of ruins.

The houses here seem to be built of stone.

Therefore, even after years and weathering, it can still maintain its general style.

But when the strong wind blows.

Gu Yuan's eyes could clearly see that the various buildings on these rocky areas were undergoing desertification.

Every time a strong wind blows, fine pieces of weathered sand flow through the gaps in the building.

Perhaps, in another hundred or two hundred years, this abandoned ancient city and even its ruins will disappear into the vast Gobi desert.

"Brother Gu Yuan, isn't this big city too big?

We just searched aimlessly like this, I'm afraid it will take a long time.

Do you still remember where the elixir grows?"

Time has turned the ancient city into a monotonous dilapidation and silence.

The two of them walked all the way, from the shock and novelty when they first met to the boredom now.

Yun Duoduo couldn't help but stop and asked Gu Yuan beside him for clues about the elixir.

Gu Yuan thought for a while and took out the simple map Chen Shu drew for him in his arms.

On this small piece of paper, in addition to the suggested route to the abandoned ancient city, there is also a small sketch in the corner.

The sketch uses simple lines to roughly outline the overall outline of the abandoned ancient city.

Among several irregular circles and lines representing streets, there is a small black dot.

That dot represents the location of the elixir that Chen Shu mentioned.

Gu Yuan looked at the sun in the sky and compared it with the simple diagram on the paper.

I think that elixir should be in the Nancheng District of the abandoned ancient city.

Their current location is just east-south of the city.

Putting away the sketch, Gu Yuan pointed to the street next to him.

"Go in this direction, we should be there soon."

The two of them turned from the main road into a side road.

Although it is said to be a small road, it is actually large enough for two carriages to run parallel to each other.

It’s just that the architectural style along the street has gradually changed from the open model on both sides of the street in front to the current residential model.

Gu Yuan estimated that the buildings around this small street should have belonged to the residential areas of the abandoned ancient city a long time ago.

Entering the small street, I turned south and turned into two alleys with only walls and no doors.

Gu Yuan, who was carefully exploring the road ahead, suddenly felt his clothes being pulled a few times.

He stopped and looked back puzzledly at the clouds behind him, tugging at his clothes.

"Brother Gu Yuan, have you felt that there seems to be something near us?"

Yun Duoduo looked a little nervous and looked around from time to time.

He also stretched out his little hands to rub his arms, but he looked a little scared.

"Duoduo, please wait here while I go take a look. Don't run around."

Gu Yuan frowned and asked Yun Duoduo to stay where he was, and Duoduo nodded in agreement.

Gu Yuan then tapped his toes, like a civet cat, and lightly jumped onto the roof beside him.

Dry and violent winds still blow from time to time.

Except for the sound of flowing weathered sand, there were no other unexpected sounds around.
