Foreword:
It is said that in the early 1960s, the endless Taklimakan Desert had been baptized and weathered by two thousand years of history. The dark golden sand blended with the scorching sun, as if it was swallowing up the entire area like a giant golden dragon. Stepping on it, the soft sand exudes a hint of heat. Looking up, the undulating hills block the view ahead. This place was once a shining pearl on the Silk Road. The Gobi Desert spreads in one place, and not far away there is a lake with spring water. Occasionally, you can see wild animals, lizards, and dromedary wild camels scattered on the sand. Tough dead branches hang aside, symbolizing that there seems to be life here, and there is a faint fragrance floating in the thin air.
An expedition and archaeological team went to the mysterious Lop Nur area of Xinjiang and found a place covered with strange roses, which were particularly dazzling in the barren desert. There is an unprovoked storm here, with sand and dust mixed with wailing. After pushing aside, you can vaguely see the towering city houses of various sizes, all made of sand bricks. The buildings are exquisite and decorated with carved beams and painted beams. They are still standing after thousands of years of wind and sand. . Unintentionally opening the dusty ancient city of civilization, this may be one of the greatest discoveries in this century. It attracted this expedition team to conduct in-depth research, but unexpectedly, they never came out after entering. This ancient city was discovered one after another, which aroused the desire of a large number of crazy expedition teams and tomb robbers to dig for gold. For some reason, all the teams that entered died and lost their minds for no reason. Later, the Ninth Branch of China was personally led by the famous scientist Mr. Chen Xun to study the ancient ruins here. With their rich experience, they brought back a few unknown green plants and some fragmentary strange objects, but they were gone when they went there for the third time. There are no traces that can be verified. Then the desert weathered, the roses withered, and no one dared to explore again. This place is still surrounded by wind and sand, and the wind is constant, but I don't know what treasures and secrets are hidden here.
In June, the sky is clear and the weather is unbearably hot. The chirping of insects is scattered on the branches beside the road. The car engine makes an impatient sound. People are crossing the zebra crossing. The shops on both sides are bustling with voices. The park pavilion is full of people. The old man playing chess played and sang lively, and the crowd made the whole city full of vitality.
A supersonic fighter jet streaked across the sky over Aktum City, Xinjiang, leaving long clouds of smoke in the sky, and a huge sonic boom shook the land.
Maybe it's mental, or maybe it's one's own problem. The darkness in this room paints a beautiful picture. Put down a heavy book, and there is a trace of heat outside the window. A few years later, I can't forget the ice as cold as iron. dusk.
Cursing secretly and muttering that it was too noisy outside to calm down, Zheng Ming simply lay down and looked at the ceiling.
Zheng Ming has a medium build, slightly pale skin, and is moderately fat and thin. He probably inherited his grandfather's genes. Under a pair of thick sword-like eyebrows, he has bright and clear eyes, which are as deep as a cold pool. , with a cold chill, sharpness, and flexibility emanating from it. Looking back on this year's third year of work, my career was mediocre, day after day, year after year.
A scene flashed through his mind. Heavy rain poured down like a torrent. The three of them carried backpacks and entered the black bamboo forest deep in Shennongjia. Under the influence of his grandfather, Zheng Ming gradually became interested in exploration and mastered survival skills. As a long electronic sound came, the guide device in his hand lost its direction. Wang Li walked forward to look for the signal. Suddenly, a huge piece of The rock slipped from the slate, and Wang Li died in front of Zheng Ming and Li Yuan.
Zheng Ming opened his eyes and brought his thoughts back to reality. As he turned his body, the jade pendant around his neck faced the sun. The jade pendant was in the shape of a semicircle. It was refracted by the sun. When he lowered his head, he could vaguely see that the jade pendant was engraved with a fish facing left. There was still a hint of yellow on the jade pendant, and a flood of thoughts came to my mind. I immediately stood up and walked to the window. Through the sunlight, I saw that there was indeed a fish carved on the jade pendant. "What is this? Why can it only be seen through the sun?" And the fish body seems to have light." Zheng Ming frowned in confusion and said in horror.
This is the jade pendant given to Zheng Ming by his grandfather, saying that wearing it will protect his grandson's health. My grandfather’s name is Zheng Dabao, and he is one of the important backbones of the scientific expedition team of the Ninth Branch of China. Suddenly, Zheng Ming rushed to the storage room in the attic. He had never lost the energy to explore. Looking back, it seemed that he hadn't been up there for three years. Grandpa's belongings had always been placed here. Zheng Ming put his feet on the floor and passed through. The thick dust left footprints one after another. Looking around, it felt strange and familiar at the same time.
Grandpa followed Mr. Chen Xun on his archaeological research expedition and never came back, and he was struck by grief. Opening the window of the storage room, perhaps due to his talent, he has a strong interest in ancient relics and civilizations. Many prehistoric texts can be understood at a glance. Grandpa often tells Zheng Ming some civilization stories, such as the ancient country of Yelang and the ancient country of Dali, and shares them with them. Zheng Ming laid a solid foundation for some adventure experiences and measures to deal with dangers in the wild since he was a child. He carefully read through a diary left by his grandfather. The book was very thick, and it clearly recorded all the adventures and other information before his disappearance. Among them In one place, it was written: "We took our things with us and headed to a ruins in Lop Nur, Xinjiang, which everyone calls the Loulan Divine Domain, to find out what happened." There was no record after that.
What was tightly strung under the diary with an iron ring was a shabby ancient book. When opened, the writing was yellowed and shabby, with no words.
In the past few years, Zheng Ming has been confused about his grandfather's mysterious disappearance and the Loulan Divine Realm, but he didn't dare to take the first step. He doesn't know whether he wants to solve the mystery of his grandfather's disappearance, his fascination with the Loulan Divine Realm, or the three-minute heat. Zheng Ming packed his bags impulsively, leaving behind his tiring work, trying to solve the mystery.
"Where are you? Hurry up." Zheng Ming hung up the phone impatiently and counted the necessary items at the door, doing mental calculations, vacuum-packed food, drinking water, compass, walkie-talkie, GPS, map, dagger, dagger, etc. Shovel, clothing. The most important thing are the books left behind by my grandfather. After opening the trunk and sorting everything out, I was just waiting for that guy Li Yuan. Li Yuan is a fat man with circles of flesh on his face, dark skin, a crew cut, and black-rimmed glasses as thick as bricks. He is a technical geek who likes hacking and programming, but his procrastination is not reliable at all. However, Zheng Ming's withdrawn character has not had many friends since he was a child. Only Li Yuan is willing to play with him, and the two of them can be regarded as best friends who share blessings and hardships. "Old Zheng! I'm coming." A harsh voice came, and the roar of cars came to Zheng Ming.
"Old Zheng, gogogo, let's go." Li Yuan said excitedly to Zheng Ming with one hand across the car window.
"I feel like you are very excited, eh, who is this?" Zheng Ming said as he spotted a girl in Li Yuan's co-pilot.
"Ah, this is my friend. I posted a post online before to gather adventure enthusiasts, but I contacted a big shot, haha." Li Yuan said smugly.
"My name is Chen Hui. Please give me some advice along the way. Hey, I heard Li Yuan say that the place we are going to is very mysterious. He refused to tell us all the way. Where is it?" After Chen Hui finished speaking, she asked about the origin of this place. Depend on.
Chen Hui wears a light orange coat with a camouflage vest underneath and brown Martin boots that exude an air of outdoor adventure. She looks like an experienced enthusiast. Her burgundy hair, wavy and draped over her shoulders, has obviously been permed and dyed. Her skin is not lacking in radiance, and her face is extremely sweet. When she smiles, her pear dimple has quite a face, with a faint hint of coolness. The color is thin, especially the three-person costume.
"Let's talk while walking. Take my car. Fatty, your second-hand Toyota is almost scrapped." Zheng Ming replied to the two of them.
Then the three of them packed their luggage into the trunk. Fortunately, Zheng Ming drove a large SUV with a lot of space. Who knew that Li Yuan only brought a computer and the rest was food, while Chen Hui was much more experienced and needed to bring everything with him when traveling. Zheng Ming finished preparing medicines and the like angrily, started the car and set off, while the fat man's car was left in Zheng Ming's parking space.
"Here, take a look at this diary." Zheng Ming took out a shabby diary from the handrail and said. Li Yuan, the co-pilot, opened the book and looked at it carefully. Chen Hui squeezed up from the back seat, and the two of them looked at it. Looking at this diary, I couldn't help but frown.
Explore and discover Mogao Grottoes, Mingsha Mountain, Crescent Moon Spring, Jiayuguan, Zhouyuan Ruins, Qin Wang Mausoleum, etc. The books contain descriptions of my grandfather’s archaeological exploration experiences with his team, and the various strange creatures he discovered are all in the book. It can be seen that my grandfather has been dealing with exploration and archeology throughout his life.
Turning to the third to last page, "We took our things with us and headed to a ruins in Lop Nur, Xinjiang, which everyone calls the Loulan Divine Domain, to find out what happened." Chen Hui read this line thoughtfully. This understatement made Chen Hui feel excited. "I've heard of this place." Chen Hui said. Zheng Ming and Li Yuan couldn't help but look at the adventure enthusiast they had just met.
"This place has hidden things that are not known to the public. Many explorers have gone in and either died or gone crazy. Do we want to go to this place?" Chen Hui said doubtfully. "Yes, we are going to the Loulan ruins." Zheng Ming said with fighting spirit. This move seemed to make Zheng Ming regain his confidence.
At this moment, in front of Loulan Ancient City, waves of sand and dust were blowing, and in front of the sand and dust stood what looked like another team. "Hunter, we worked so hard and almost got caught, just for this thing?" said one of the members of the team.
The four people in the dust stole the Pisces Jade Pendant from the Ninth Branch of Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The leader is called "Is Hunter", a senior colonel of the Imperial Army of the Southern Confederacy. He wears an officer's hat, a beard full of stubble, and a gray and black coat. The pattern on the back of the coat is like a black cloud. He has a burly body and is always holding a gun in his hand. A cigarette. The one next to me is "Vampire", who is the top hacker of the Southern Alliance Empire. The "Red" on the other side is the British Royal Special Forces, and the "Sha" is the Canadian Special Forces. These three people are wearing soldiers' combat uniforms. They are all retired Join the "Disaster Group".
"Vampire, do you think this place is that simple? This time we got the Pisces jade pendant found here by the Ninth Central Science Branch. The next step is to find a way to enter the divine realm." IS hunter replied softly.
It is said that in 630 AD, the Western Turks fought against the Tang Dynasty, and neither side could lose. The Western Turks learned that the Loulan Kingdom had the secrets of the ancient gods, and sent envoys to negotiate with the Loulan King, promising to jointly carve up the Tang Dynasty's territory. The Loulan King wanted to be safe. However, after refusing the request, the Western Turks moved to fight in Loulan. The Loulan Kingdom was destroyed on a large scale. After several fierce battles, for unknown reasons, the Loulan Kingdom disappeared from people's sight overnight, leaving only empty buildings on the ground.
"We lost four brothers this time, and we managed to escape from the Ninth Central Science Branch. If we really lead to the divine realm as the legend says, and get help from the gods, our brothers will also die peacefully." The vampire. Sighed softly
"We have been looking for a way to the divine realm, and the sacrifice of our brothers is inevitable." Chi said softly, and Shaya beside him softly agreed.
"All sacrifices are valuable, vampire, put on your jade pendant. Everyone, have a good rest. We will set off as soon as it gets dark tomorrow." said the is hunter.
At this time, the starlight lit by candles swayed in front of this deserted ruins, which seemed particularly quiet and thin. The vastness of the desert was constantly ups and downs, and the whirlwind blew the sand and dust one by one. Without these struggles, this would have been What a beautiful scenery. And this team has spent their entire lives studying how to reach the God's Realm and obtain the treasures and magic power of the God's Realm. Sand and dust were still flying all over the sky, and the jagged rocks looked like lonely souls looking at the ancient city and the team.
A roar similar to that of a large beast woke up the sleeping IS hunter and everyone.
