"Haha, Brother Guan is so courageous!" Seeing Guan Heng agreeing to Abdullah's difficult conditions in an understatement, even Jin Bing, the boss of the underground gang beside him, looked impressed with admiration: "As expected of my recommendation. Man, why don't I follow you..."
Before the word "go together" was uttered, Guan Heng had already interrupted Jin Bing: "No need, Mr. Jin Bing, just wait here for my news, traveling to and from a mere desert underground palace, and... We won’t have to work hard together!”
"I believe it won't be long before I come back!" Guan Heng then whispered to Jin Bing: "Please take care of my two brothers and don't let them have any conflicts with Abdul!"
"Okay, don't worry about this!" Although Jin Bing was a member of an underground gang who did not blink an eye at murder, he also admired Guan Heng's ability and courage, so he agreed to help Guan Heng take care of Ben Grim and Santai's request!
"Everyone, sit down for a moment! I'll be back soon!" Guan Heng smiled slightly and took the box containing the location map of the underground palace from Abdullah's personal bodyguard Qiao San. The latter's eyes narrowed and he looked at Guan deeply. With a glance, he immediately retreated to Abdullah's side!
Turning around and walking out of Abdullah's mansion with his head held high, Guan Heng walked around and walked into a deserted alley that he had observed when he came here. He reached out and took out the map in the box. Then he flipped through it with his fingertips, and a ball of paper suddenly appeared. Appeared in Guan Hengzhang!
The note read: "The underground palace is full of dangers. Abdullah has hidden evil intentions. It is best to be careful! He is not famous."
"Haha, finally this guy still has some conscience and knows how to remind me with a note!" A ball of flame suddenly appeared on Guan Heng's fingertips, and instantly burned the note into ashes: "Well, this bastard Abdullah has no good intentions. I have known it for a long time, but since he asked me to visit the underground palace, then I will go and see what kind of dragon pit and tiger den you have set up!"
Thinking of this, Guan Heng did not stop, quickly went to a deserted place, summoned the exorcist armor in his body, and flew straight into the sky. According to the direction pointed by the map, it took less than five minutes to fly to At the edge of the desert.
"Hmm...where is the entrance to the underground palace?" Guan Heng looked around. There was an extremely vast desert everywhere. Not even a bird or a plant could be seen, let alone the shadow of the underground palace!
After searching for a few minutes without finding his target, Guan Heng took out the simple map of the underground palace and looked at it: "Oh, this wicked Abdullah drew the map in such a sloppy way. He is clearly trying to embarrass me!"
"Huh - bang!" Guan Heng suddenly landed on the ground, and then quickly put away the exorcist armor: "It seems that the general location of the underground palace should be right here. It may be that wind and sand are often raging nearby, burying the entrance and exit. Maybe!"
"That's all, let's search carefully from all around!" Guan Heng knew that he couldn't rush, so he began to search seriously!
"Huh? There is actually a residential house in this remote desert?!" Guan Heng looked intently and saw a two-story domed stone building a few miles away. It was very characteristic of local residential buildings. It was obviously It looks like it has been built for a long time!
"Let's go and take a look. Maybe we can find out the direction of the underground palace!" Guan Heng thought of this, and without stopping, he came directly to the door of this domed stone house! But when he arrived at the place, Guan Heng was disappointed when he saw it. The place was dilapidated and had obviously been abandoned for a long time.
"Alas, it's strange to be able to live in a house that can't even block the wind and sand!" Although Guan Heng thought so, he couldn't help but walked into the house and took a closer look. He could only see vaguely visible objects on the second floor of the house. Out of the box layout: The first floor is a huge study room. Various broken books are piled in the corners. Some books are made of leather and have not rotted after centuries. Guan Heng picks them up and looks through them at will. , I found that they were all written in local characters, and I didn’t recognize them either.
"It seems that the owner here is a well-educated man!" Guan Heng gently put down the book and murmured: "To be able to own so many books probably requires several lifetimes of accumulation by my ancestors. It is really not easy!"
Walking up the stone steps, Guan Heng found that there were two living rooms on the second floor. The furnishings were shabby and there was nothing unusual about them.
"Huh? This place actually has a small attic on the top floor!" Guan Heng walked to the end of the second floor and found the steps going up: "Okay, let's just go up and have a look!"
"Huh?!" Guan Heng walked up to the top floor and was surprised to find an old man standing on the rooftop of the top floor. This man was wearing a cloth robe and a long scarf wrapped around his head. There's also a goatee underneath!
The old man put his hands behind his back and stood on the rooftop looking at the yellow sand in the distance, his expression was very leisurely and contented!
The doubts in Guan Heng's eyes just flashed across his eyes. When he noticed that the old man's body was almost transparent, he suddenly understood: "It turns out he is a ghost!"
Slowly walking to the old man's side, Guan Heng smiled slightly and said, "The old man is very interested in admiring the scenery here. It's really disturbing that travelers from far away come unexpectedly!"
The old ghost turned to look at Guan Heng and said with a smile: "Young man can actually see me?! It seems that he is also a person with strange abilities!"
"Seeing that you are walking in a hurry, and there is a little anxiety in your eyebrows, it seems that you are not here for fun!" The old man introduced himself, stroking his long beard: "My name is Cushing, and I was the owner of this dome building when I was alive."
"Young man, is there anything you need my help with?" Cushing said with a smile: "Just ask. Strange guests rarely come to my home, and even fewer can see me. Just for this reason, I will help. your!"
"Okay, please listen to me slowly..." Guan Heng told the old man Cushing about his plan to find the desert underground palace!
After listening to Guan Heng's narration, the old man Cuxin frowned: "You mean, the person who asked you to find the lost items in the underground palace is called Abdullah Schiller?"
"What? Is it possible that you know him?" Guan Heng couldn't help but wonder: "Old Mr. Cushing, I look at your attire and clothes, at least you are an ancient person from hundreds of years ago. How could you possibly know Abdullah?" Woolen cloth?"
"Haha, I've definitely never met Abdullah!" the old man Cushing said with a smile: "But more than seven hundred years ago, I may have met his ancestor, the Emir of Damascus (the highest local governor) at that time. It’s an old acquaintance we often interact with, because he also has the surname “Schiller”!”
"You don't mind telling me the reason?" Guan Heng said with a smile: "Because I am very curious about the underground palace and everything between you!"
"Okay, let's go to the study room on the first floor and talk slowly!" The two of them walked down the stone steps. As they walked, Cushing said: "This is a long story. Haha, I haven't told anyone about it for a long time. pass!"
The day when the past started... It was more than 700 years ago. At that time, there were frequent wars in the nearby area. In order to avoid the war and concentrate on his studies, the famous scholar Cushing moved his family to this oasis on the edge of the desert!
