Drink! drive!
Excited crowds, running camels, billowing smoke, flying sand and rocks, pulled out a long dragon on the dim horizon.
Chen Tao lay tightly on the back of the camel, staring ahead without blinking. A huge sand mountain suddenly appeared on the horizon ahead, and behind the sand mountain, there was a building.
As the camel team galloped across the desert, the outline of the building became clearer and clearer. It was tall, majestic, full of vicissitudes of time, and looked like a floating building on the sea in the vast sea of sand.
At first, Chen Tao thought it was a mirage. After all, in a place like the desert, it was normal for some strange illusions to appear. However, as the camel team quickly approached, the buildings in front of him became more and more frightening.
It is a towering temple that is integrated with the sand mountain behind it. If you look at it at a glance, you can't see it at all if you don't pay attention.
Call...
The group of people stopped in front of the temple. At this time, a large expanse of white appeared on the horizon, and the sun was about to rise.
Chen Tao sat on the back of the camel and was completely shocked by the hall in front of him. The main hall is backed by a sand mountain, giving people the impression that it is growing directly from the ground. The main hall is three to four feet high and is made of huge boulders. There are several pillars standing at the entrance. Even if a dozen people hold hands, they may not be able to hold them. Two of them have collapsed and were broken into several pieces in front of the temple. Most of them are buried in the sand, except for a few longer ones. The broken pillars are still standing on the sand. Each bead is engraved with strange shapes and symbols, as well as strings of strange words, most of which have been blurred due to severe erosion by wind and sand. Chen Tao looked at it and saw that the words looked very familiar, and seemed to be somewhat similar to the ghost symbols on the wooden box.
There should have been two stone statues at the entrance of the main hall, but I don’t know how many years they have stood here. The original stone statues have long since disappeared. One has only two legs left, and the other has completely disappeared, leaving only an empty underground space. Stone seat.
Chen Tao got off the camel, rubbed his numb buttocks, followed a group of people, and looked up into the temple. Due to the dim light, looking from Chen Tao's position, the hall was pitch black, and only a lot of dark shadows could be vaguely seen inside.
When the group of people arrived at the entrance of the main hall, the minions quickly dispersed, raising their guns and pulling bolts, guarding every corner outside the main hall.
These people are definitely not ordinary forces. It can be seen from their equipment and behavior style that although these people are a little scattered, they are well-trained and are by no means ordinary thieves and bandits.
"That boy from the Chen family, come here quickly!" Big Beard shouted. Before Chen Tao could react, he was pulled by two tall minions and dragged in front of Big Beard.
"Hurry up, the sun is about to rise!" The bearded man finished his sentence and walked towards the entrance of the temple first.
"Let me go, I can walk by myself!" Chen Tao broke away from the two big men and walked a few steps quickly to follow the bearded group.
"Can you tell me what this place is?
"
The bearded man's face was straightened, and Chen Tao's ferocious eyes made his heart skip a beat.
This man has a ferocious face, and his words and deeds reveal a hostility that is not seen in ordinary people. Not to mention that he has any disputes with the Chen family, but he is definitely a ruthless master. In the depths of this desolate and vast desert, Chen Tao fell. In their hands, you may lose your life at any time.
In a place like this, it's normal for someone to die.
"Hala, Rol Pakul, Shivadana Bal!"
Before walking a few steps, I heard a chirping cry. A big man with the same beard and strange tattoos on his forehead came over. He put a fist on his left chest with one hand and bowed his head to the bearded man. Then he said something loudly, as if he had discovered something.
Chen Tao didn't understand what he was talking about, but he saw the bearded man turn his head and glance at himself, then glanced at the direction he came from, waved his hand towards the man, and the big man turned around and yelled at a few people and left on camels. .
What happened? Chen Tao was startled for no reason, vaguely feeling that something bad was going to happen.
Bang... bang!
There was a burst of gunfire in the distance, and then several people rode camels and galloped away in the direction they came from.
"Let's go!" The tall black man pushed Chen Tao unceremoniously and urged him to move towards the main hall.
"Damn it, you stupid bastards, you have the ability to kill you, Mr. Hao, and me!"
A familiar voice suddenly came from behind, and Chen Tao was shocked. He quickly looked back and saw that the minions who had gone out before had returned, and they were still holding two people.
"Haozi! Ye Rong!"
Chen Tao was shocked and rushed towards Haozi and Ye Rong. Unexpectedly, the tall black man behind him swept his leg. Chen Tao was instantly kicked to the ground and had a mouth full of sand.
"Taozi, I'm here to save you!"
Those people pressed Haozi and the others up to Chen Tao, Big Beard and others. They saw Haozi and Ye Rong had their hands tied behind their backs, and their bodies and faces were covered with sand.
"Didn't I ask you two to leave! What's going on!"
Chen Tao spit out a few mouthfuls of sand and looked at Hao Zi and the two angrily.
"I, Li Hao, can't do such a thing as abandoning my brothers and running for my own life!" With his hands tied, Haozi struggled a few times, but it was of no use.
"Chen Tao, no one can stop me. I have to go to Tatunaan!" Ye Rong's eyes showed a stubbornness, which made Chen Tao feel a little dizzy.
He finally tricked Big Beard into letting Haozi and Ye Rong go, but why did these two idiots come back again?
"You...sigh!" Looking at the blood marks on their faces, Chen Tao felt angry and moved at the same time.
Haozi and the others followed him all the way here for their own sake, but they were discovered unexpectedly.
"Stop being so nagging, hurry up!" A minion behind him kicked Hao Zi hard, almost knocking him down. The three of them were pointed at guns and walked at the front of the team.
"Where is this place?" Chen Tao asked Ye Rong in a low voice
"This is the Nakarosa Temple. The one inside should be Nakaro, the God of War in Tatunaan's faith.
Sa, in the legend of Tatunaan, the god of war Nakarosa is the younger brother of Nakara, the god of the underworld. Tatunaan has been fighting for many years, from a very small desert tribe to the final huge kingdom, every time he sends troops Previously, King Tatunaan would sacrifice to the war god Nakarosa to bless them with victory in the war. "
"So, we have arrived at Tatuna?" Chen Tao looked at the surrounding desert and asked, "Why is there nothing here?"
"Yes, this used to be Tatunaan's territory, but it's still far away from where we want to go." Ye Rong looked at the hall in front of her, "Legend has it that the God of War Nakarossa guarded Tatunaan's territory. Gate, if you want to find the royal city of Tatunaan, you have to go through the Eye of the Desert and find the Devil's Forest leading to Tatunaan."
"Forest? This is a desert!" Chen Tao was puzzled.
"It was an oasis full of curses. Since Tatunaan was buried by a storm overnight, this oasis has become more and more weird. How many people have stepped into the Devil's Forest for the undead treasures under Tatunaan City. There were even many troops among them, but no one could come out alive. Rumor has it that Tatunaan suffered a heavy defeat and the army returned in defeat. In the end, they were even forced into the royal city. Seeing that the royal city was about to After being breached by the enemy, King Tatunaan, in order to defeat the enemy, exchanged his soul with Nakara, the god of the underworld, and begged her to protect Tatunaan from this disaster. Nakara promised him that when the enemy breached the city gate, In an instant, blood rained from the sky, and the sand turned into an oasis, and the soldiers surrounded by the oasis died inside. From then on, no one except the Tatunaans could get even half a step closer to the royal city .”
"Are you so awesome?" Haozi also came over, "Beautiful Ye knows a lot!"
While talking, everyone had already entered the temple.
There are also dozens of pillars supporting the hall, but they are thinner than those outside. They are engraved with strange symbols and words, and the surrounding stone walls are embossed with strange stone carvings. There is a stone statue carved from black stone in the middle of the hall. One foot alone is as big as half of Chen Tao's body. Under the stone statue is a huge chariot carved from reddish-brown stone. There are 24 huge wheels on the chariot, each wheel is about 2 meters in diameter, and there are 9 thick wedge-shaped spokes engraved with exquisite patterns, which are gorgeous yet powerful.
In front of the chariot are seven majestic war horses. The horses are covered with armor and golden saddles. Living in the main hall, it seems that you can hear the fighting on the battlefield and the roar of the war horses. The God of War Nakarosa was wearing a battle suit, his eyes wide open with anger, the weapon in his hand pointed directly outside the temple, and he let out a roar, as if he would rush out of the temple on his chariot in the next second.
According to Ye Rong, the 7 war horses represent the 7 days in a week, and the 24 wheels represent the 24 hours in a day. The surface of the chariot is engraved with patterns and reliefs depicting battles.
"These two people are so strange. Why do they have mouse heads?" Haozi said.
Chen Tao heard the sound and looked over, only to see two smaller stone statues on the left and right sides of the chariot.
Two meters tall, with a rat head and human body, slender ears, and angry eyes. It is wearing a religious uniform. There is a human skull under its feet. One of them is holding a strange-shaped weapon in his hand, which seems to be related to The one held by the God of War Nacarosa is exactly the same, while the other stone statue is holding a pyramid-shaped object in its hand. It is unknown what it is.
"Where's the thing?" The bearded man stretched out his hand toward Chen Tao.
"What?" Chen Tao looked puzzled, thinking, "Oh no, he must be asking for that key."
"I advise you to stop playing tricks and hand over the keys quickly!"
Damn it, how do I know what the key is? Chen Tao pretended to be looking for something on his body, but his heart was in a mess.
I knew I couldn't hide it, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly! I don't even know what the key is. At first, he was just talking nonsense in order to save Ye Rong and Haozi, but he didn't expect them to run back again. Once these people find out that Chen Tao is lying to them, there is only death waiting for the three of them.
This is how to do!
