The wind stopped.
Everyone gathered around Qingshi and expressed their admiration for Qingshi's ability to control the wind. Qingshi couldn't help being humble, but secretly took out two Qing Qi Pills and took them.
Controlling the wind not only requires the use of mental power, but also consumes a huge amount of true energy.
Everyone soon discovered the spire of the building sticking out of the ground, and everyone was very happy, so they immediately set off for it.
They quickly walked seven or eight miles, and the group came to the largest building spire. Qingshi discovered that this should be the roof of a large palace-style building. It was entirely composed of thick and wide stone slabs. It seemed that it was just covered with stone. The yellow sand buried it, and there was no sign of collapse.
There are two stone building spiers near the roof. Obviously there are many man-made buildings buried under the yellow sand here, which must be Shenlong City.
Although Shenlong City was found, it is now buried under the yellow sand. It is not easy to dig it out. Duan Wutian, Adong, Asi, and Anan tried to dig down along the palace spire, but found that it was impossible because the surrounding quicksand would backfill. If you wanted to dig down, just dig down. All the excavated sand must be transported far away.
Qingshi asked Luoluo Mountain and found out that the above-ground part of Shenlong City was about two hundred feet long and two hundred feet wide. Qingshi estimated that the yellow sand was buried about two feet deep. Based on this calculation, Qingshi found that the yellow sand that needed to be dug out was simply one Astronomical figures, it would take at least several months for the nine of them to dig like this, and it would probably take ten and a half months with hundreds of puppets.
Asked again about the entrance to the underground Dragon Palace in Luoluo Mountain, Luoluo Mountain did not know the specific location. Qingshi thought for a while and decided that it still needed the help of wind, so he asked everyone to stop digging and wait patiently for the dawn of the next day.
Qingshi set up a pergola and sat in it to recover his energy and mental strength. Others were bored and either tried to find a place to dig down for a while, or asked Luo Luoshan to ask him to take out the clues and study them, trying to find After leaving the entrance of the Underground Dragon Palace, it was quickly past noon.
Shortly in the afternoon, strong winds blew again in the desert. The wind did not only blow at dawn in the desert, so this wind was not surprising.
Seeing the strong wind coming, Qingshi immediately used the wind control technique again to use the wind to blow the sand.
This time, Qingshi had a specific goal, and the range of sand blowing that needed to be controlled was reduced by ten times. Therefore, the efficiency of wind control and sand blowing was greatly improved.
The strong wind came from the east. Under the control of Qingshi, it no longer blew like a fan, but formed a spectacular tornado. The bottom diameter of this tornado was about thirty feet and the height was more than five hundred feet. It was like A winding and twisting giant dragon rushed back and forth in this area, sucking up the yellow sand on the ground to high altitude and then scattering it to the northwest.
The strong wind lasted for a full three hours, and the tornado sucked in the yellow sand for three hours. At sunset, the strong wind seemed to suddenly lose its momentum and soon stopped.
The wind and sand stopped and the dust settled.
What appears in front of everyone is a huge yellow sand basin, and within it is a magnificent ancient city.
Walking along the sloping sand surface into the ancient city, the group of nine people were shocked by the city's magnificent architecture and exquisite stone carvings.
All buildings in the entire city are made of heavy boulders, including the roofs, which are made of large stone slabs. Almost all buildings remain intact. Although these buildings are heavy and majestic, their walls and roof eaves are engraved with many exquisite stone carvings and patterns.
The spacious streets are all paved with huge stones. Except for some yellow sand remaining at the angle between the street corner and the building, the ground of the entire city seems to have been just cleaned, clean and tidy.
Everyone walked on the empty street and looked at the tall and exquisite stone buildings on both sides, feeling filled with emotion.
"Boss Luo," Bai Sha said, "this Dragon City is actually made of huge rocks. I think it is more appropriate to call it Stone City. Where did they get so many stones?"
"I know this," Luo Luoshan said. "They use local materials. They cut the underground rocks into pieces and drag them to the surface. In this way, there is a huge space underground for the underground city, and there is only There are so many stones to build the above-ground city.”
"Oh my God!" Chen Tianye sighed, "It would take a lot of work to mine so much stone from the ground!"
"For other people, this is naturally shocking!" Luo Luoshan said, "But for the Desert Dragon, this is just a piece of cake."
"Huh?" Duan Wutian asked, "Why?"
"Let me ask you a question," Luo Luoshan said with a chuckle, "Take our search for the Divine Dragon City as an example. If we start digging sand, it will probably take several months to dig out the Divine Dragon City. But why do you How many hours can Boss Da Ya do it?"
"Well!" Duan Wutian said, "This is because our boss has fully understood the way of wind and mastered the art of controlling wind!"
"That's right!" Luo Luoshan said with a smile, "The Desert Dragon has mastered the way of gold and the way of earth. For him, cutting these huge rocks and transporting them out is as simple as blowing sand with the wind in the sea. "
"oh!"
Everyone suddenly realized it together.
"Boss Luo," Qingshi said, "I remember you once told the Five Elements Catchers that this business is definitely tempting for Jin Yi and Tu Wu. What you mean is that the Desert Dragon may use him for the metal and earth. The understanding of Tao leads to the creation of Tao Zang, and thus it is left behind, right?”
"Yes!" Luo Luoshan said, "According to the clues I understand, the Desert Dragon has indeed left behind his legacy. I can promise you that if you can get the treasures and inheritance of the Desert Dragon this time, these secrets and Taoist secrets will be You can make copies of anything as long as it is suitable for your practice."
After hearing what Luo Luoshan said, everyone became excited, so everyone began to disperse and look for the entrance to the dungeon.
Shenlong's underground city is not big, and the buildings are very regular. Its north-south central axis is a wide and straight avenue. The northernmost end is a palace. Its spire is the first part seen on the ground. In the center is a A large circular square, and at the southernmost end is a temple dedicated to the Desert Dragon. Judging from the statue in the temple, the Desert Dragon is indeed a person.
Everyone quickly searched the entire Shenlong dungeon, but did not find any entrance to the dungeon. Naturally, they all entered palaces, temples, and some luxurious-looking buildings, but found no treasures. Everyone was disappointed, so they all gathered in the central square.
"Boss Luo," Bai Sha said, "do you really have no clue about the entrance to the dungeon?"
"No," Luo Luoshan said, "Judging from the clues I got, the aboveground city and underground city were originally integrated, with more than one entrance. In order to facilitate people's entry and exit, these entrances and exits will not be built in secret places. On the contrary, they should be in public places, such as near this square."
"Boss Luo," Qingshi thought for a while and said, "I remember you said that before the Desert Dragon died, he turned the underground palace into his own cemetery, and used his inheritance and most valued treasures as burial objects. From now on Judging from the situation, I think he not only used the underground palace as a tomb, he should have used the entire underground city as his own tomb, so these entrances and exits were sealed."
"It makes sense!" Luo Luoshan nodded and said, "In fact, we can further speculate that this underground city is also part of his tomb, and they buried it deliberately."
After hearing what Qingshi and Luo Luoshan said, everyone thought it made sense, so they began to guess the location of the entrance. After some discussion, most people felt that the most likely location of the entrance should be in the square where they are now. Finally, Luoluoshan made the decision to excavate from the center of the square.
Luo Luoshan directed Adong Axi and Anan to take out a large number of excavation tools from their respective storage containers, and then asked everyone to dig with their own tools. Qingshi smiled and said, just leave such simple manual work to the puppet, there is no need to do it yourself.
Qing Duan and Chen each took out two teams of puppets and asked them to put away their weapons and replace them with digging tools such as sharp-nosed hoes, T-shaped picks, and earth-moving frames. After simple debugging, these puppets began to dig.
Luo Luoshan and others looked at these puppets and couldn't believe their eyes. It was not uncommon for puppets to be mined, but they were amazed that such large and numerous puppets could be stored in storage containers.
In an environment with thin spiritual energy, Qingshi and his puppets are very insensitive to the outside world. They look dull and move slowly. However, they are not good at fighting, but simple tasks such as digging earth and rocks are not a problem at all.
More than an hour later, a large pit was dug in the center of the square. When the pit was dug to a depth of about five feet, a large flat stone appeared at the bottom of the pit. Qingshi then directed the puppets to dig around. Soon, The shape of the entire pit is revealed. It is square, with a bottom side of about twenty feet. There are wide stone staircases on the east and west sides, and huge stone walls on the north and south sides. There are two tall and tall doors on each wall. Heavy stone door. Obviously, these two stone gates are the entrances to the underground city.
Qingshi and the others collected the puppets, and everyone walked down the stone stairs to the big pit on the south side and came to the big stone gate on the south side.
Luo Luoshan directed A Dong and Anan to push the door forward. The two stepped forward, each stretched out his palms against a door and began to push hard. The stone door shook slightly. It did not seem to be locked, but because The closing time is too long and the door shaft does not rotate smoothly. The two tried their best again, but still couldn't push the door open.
"let me try!"
Duan Wutian stepped forward, put his palms against the two doors of the stone door and pushed hard. The two stone doors were pushed open by him with a rumble. Whether it was Adong, Anan or the black and white evil spirits of Luo Luoshan, they could not help but be impressed by Duan Wutian's divine power.
Behind the stone gate is a stone staircase that slopes downward. This stone staircase passage is about three feet high and no less than five feet wide. Each step of the five-foot-long stone staircase is about one foot high and three feet wide, making it appear wide. style.
As the stone door opened, a soft and bright light slowly lit up in the passage. This was the light emitted by the lighting devices inlaid on the top of the passage and the stone walls on both sides. These lighting devices seemed to be responsive to the outside air. , they lit up as soon as the stone door opened.
"Brothers," Luo Luoshan said, "Since this dungeon is a tomb, the Desert Dragon will definitely set up magic circles or traps to prevent people from robbing the tomb. We must be careful.
"Let's move forward in separate teams. Let's go at the front. Haiya, you three, go behind us, and Black and White Shuangsha, you two, stop behind. Our three teams should not get too close or too far away. Since we have entered here, we are all in the same team. We are all on the same boat, and when we encounter danger, we must help each other and lend a helping hand to each other, do you understand?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Luo Luoshan took out the black giant sword on his back and held it in his hand. He took the lead in stepping through the stone gate and walking down. Everyone filed in according to his arrangement and started heading towards the dungeon.
