After resting until the evening of the next day, Wang Ye and the others continued on their way.

Moving forward in the endless desert.

There are no more Populus euphratica in the desert, and there are no undulating sand mountains here. The surrounding sand dunes have similar heights, just like flat steamed buns, boundless. On the ground, they look the same from any angle.

The scenery is devoid of any signs of life, so this desert is also called the Black Desert.

"Old man, have you ever entered this desert before?" Lao Hu asked An Liman.

Old man An Liman smiled bitterly and said: "This is the hell of Huangsha. Even Hu Da and his old man are not willing to come. Well, I only came here once. Isn't this the time now? If not

Your cadre master, I will never come here even if I die a hundred times."

An Li is full of complaints, but being called a living map in the desert is by no means a wasted reputation. He is as familiar with the desert as a woman playing with pots and pans.

Although it was the first time in his life to enter this forbidden black desert, with his two fox-like eyes, he could still spot the pickerel grass, wormwood and other plants in the sand nests, and just follow the traces of these plants.

And his long years of experience in the desert can lead Wang Ye and the others to move forward in this black desert.

But manpower is limited and time has come.

After passing the stone tomb and walking for several days, everyone stopped to rest and replenish water, but An Liman's face was extremely ugly.

"Uncle An Liman, is there something wrong?" Hu Bayi, who was sitting next to An Liman and had just taken a sip of water, asked.

An Liman nodded: "We have already walked out of the area covered by the Zidu Anhe River. If we continue walking, even I will not be able to find a way back."

After hearing the news, everyone had different expressions. Lao Hu and Fatty wanted to go back home. The archaeological team also had ugly expressions. Because of the consumption during this period and evaporation, they no longer had much fresh water.

The king looked indifferent, because he knew that he was approaching the Zagrama Valley.

"Damn it, why doesn't this watch run?" Just as everyone was thinking, the fat man suddenly spoke and slapped the watch on his wrist.

"Is it broken?" Old Hu looked back and asked.

"Impossible, I just bought this some time ago." Fatty said it was impossible, "Look at yours."

Wang also remembered that Fatty’s watch was a new one they bought after they earned some money from the tomb of the Jin Kingdom general. It was a foreign brand, so how could it break down so quickly?

He guessed that they should be near Cishan at this time, and the fat man's watch was affected by Cishan.

"My hands are not moving either." Old Hu looked at his watch and saw that his hands were not moving either.

After hearing this, others also looked at their watches and found that the hands were not moving.

Shirley Yang's eyes lit up when she saw this situation, and she immediately took out her notebook and said excitedly: "Look, everyone, there is a record in the notebook that the British explorer also lost Zidu An in the depths of the Black Desert.

Traces of the river, dead in this barren area

In the Sea of ​​Death, two huge black magnetic mountains stand facing each other in the afterglow of the setting sun, like two ancient warriors wearing black armor, silently guarding ancient secrets. Through the gate-like valley, a legendary

The city appears before our eyes."

Cishan!

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this.

Does this mean they have arrived at Zagrama Mountain?

"Shirley, let me take a look." Professor Chen was very excited when he heard this. He reached out to take the notes handed over by Shirley Yang, looked at them carefully, and after a while said, "That is indeed what is written in the notes."<

/p>

"But where is Cishan?" Fatty asked as he looked around after hearing this.

Others heard this and quickly searched for it.

"Look, is that right?" Ye Yixin suddenly pointed in a direction.

The desert was extremely empty, thousands of miles away, and everyone looked in the direction of Ye Yixin's finger.

At the end of the sky and the earth, there is a faint black line, but it is far away, and it is impossible to see it clearly without looking carefully. However, the king also has extraordinary eyesight and can see it clearly.

It is a black mountain range, like a still black dragon in the thousands of miles of yellow sand. The mountain range is cut off from it, just like an immortal cutting the black dragon in two with a sword, and a valley is formed in the middle. These features are all the same as those recorded in the notes of British explorers.

consistent.

Others took out their telescopes and took a closer look. They were all very excited. After all, they finally found Zagrama Mountain.

However, An Liman said that there is a dreamy land in the black desert, where mirages often appear. Those wonders are illusions that lead people to the abyss of death. The two sacred mountains they see now may also be mirages.
p>

"It shouldn't be a mirage." The knowledgeable Professor Chen said, "First of all, the illusions in the desert are caused by the refraction of light. Those landscapes are all kinds of strange, and most of them are scenery that does not exist in the desert. And the black mountains, more than

Someone mentioned it once, it should be absolutely true."

Everyone nodded when they heard this. In comparison, they were still willing to believe that the black mountain range was Zagrama Mountain.

In short, you will know if it is true or false, just go and take a look.

In the evening, Wang Ye and his party set out towards Zagrama Mountain.

As the saying goes, if you look at the mountain and run to death, you will have to look in the right direction, and you will not arrive at the mountain pass until late at night.

At this time, the moonlight is like water, and the desert is like a silent sea. In this ocean of sand, the Zagrama Mountains are undulating and covered with black stones. The closer you look, the more eye-catching you see.

It is more appropriate to say that it is a mountain, it is better to say that it is two oversized black stones. The diameter of these two huge stones is about tens of kilometers. Only a shallow backbone is exposed in the sea of ​​​​sand, and the larger part is buried underground. Maybe

Below, the two boulders themselves are connected as one, and the pass may be nothing more than a crack in the boulder.

The moonlight reflected nothing at all on the black stones. It was dark inside the mountain pass. Everyone got off the camels and walked. Wang Ye reminded everyone to pay attention. He remembered that there were many strange snakes here. Now this

Who knows where he will pop out of the dark place.

Wang Ye and Lao Hu were at the front, Fatty and Chu Jian were behind, and Shirley Yang and others were in the middle. The team formed a single column and slowly entered the valley.

The moon was at its zenith, and it was extremely dark in the valley from south to north. Even if they used flashlights, the beam of light could not illuminate very far.

The group of people moved forward cautiously, one step deeper and one step shallower.

Wang Ye has kept his hand on the unparalleled sword box on his back since he entered the valley. Whenever there is danger, he will summon the flying sword to kill the enemy.
