I looked at Zhu Huan with some suspicion. No matter how bad Bai Ruilong was, he was also the second son of a wealthy family. Not to mention the bodyguards around him, he must have some fists and kicks. Just because of Zhu Huan's two actions?
He said: "That's really all, Li Shang, I, Zhu Huan, swear to God, I never thought of doing anything bad to you. When Bai Ruilin found me, he did ask me to kill you by the way, but my attitude was very firm." , I would rather let him kill me than I would do anything to hurt you, so he settled for the next best thing..."
I nodded. This point was not much different from the information Xiao Bijing gave me.
But I still feel a little unbelievable about killing Bai Ruilong.
I said, "He didn't tell you how to kill Bai Ruilong?"
"What he means is to sow discord and get you and Bai Ruilong to fight. It would be best if he could lend your hand..."
"Okay." I nodded: "I'll give it a try then."
What I said is serious, because Bai Ruilin gives me a feeling that contacting him is like contacting a cobra. I don’t know when he will come back and bite you, and Bai Ruilin and Gu Bai Ruilong couldn't have known that he was going to do business and buy walking corpses, but he didn't tell me.
This is one of the reasons why I wanted to get him.
After driving Zhu Huan to the next room, I took a shower and lay down comfortably.
But Bai Ruilong never had any information about when to go to the Loulan ruins.
They just gave enough funds to allow Zhu Huan and I to spend and play here, and Lao Kui came to Zhu Huan to eat, drink and have fun all day long.
This carefree and comfortable life lasts until the seventh day of the second lunar month.
Lao Kui received a call from Bai Ruilong, saying that people were already in place.
Lao Kui said hello to me and went out to fetch people. When he came back, Lao Kui was followed by seven people.
All of them were tall, powerful, and had a heavy body odor.
foreigners.
But the seven of them spoke Mandarin fluently and could switch between local dialects at will, which really surprised me.
I glanced at a few people and said to Lao Kui: "In other words, there are a total of eleven people entering the Loulan ruins this time?"
"Ten."
"Bai Ruilong isn't going?"
"The second young master is not going. He is sitting in the rear and is responsible for taking care of us. After all, the attention of the whole world has been attracted this time, so it is difficult to handle the situation." What Lao Kui said was reasonable and reasonable, and I couldn't refute it.
Later, Lao Kui took us to a self-built house bought by Bai Ruilong to look at the equipment.
The equipment is all imported, and food and drink are well prepared, but not in terms of drinking water.
The Loulan ruins cover a large area. It is said to be a small city, but in fact it is not that small. Moreover, in the desert, moisture from the body will be lost quickly due to wind and sun, and subsequent water resources will need to be airdropped.
Moreover, all the major factions in the world have set their sights here this time, so there must be a lot of people here, and fights are inevitable.
After packing the necessary equipment, ten of us took the bus and left.
After returning to the hotel and checking out the room, we headed straight to the Loulan ruins.
The Loulan ruins are about 200 kilometers away from Ruoqiang, so our two vehicles were modified and an additional fuel tank was installed.
In this way, even if we take the wrong path in the desert, we won't end up lying in bed.
The journey is boring.
Zhu Huan, Lao Kui, myself, a junior, a kid, two people, and I shared a car, and the other five people shared a car.
I was at the boss's seat and asked Lao Kui in front of me: "Lao Kui, what you said to me in the Imperial Tomb before are true or false?"
"Really, absolutely true."
"Then who else knows about my situation?"
"No, I have always been tight-lipped about the things I promised to the master. Don't worry, the shopkeeper." Lao Kui said, turned around and held up three fingers: "Although I, Lao Kui, am a bit unreliable, I always know how to repay my kindness." I still know these four words."
I nodded and said nothing.
Lao Kui asked again: "Shopkeeper, you said that Loulan, as a button on the Silk Road, became so dilapidated overnight. Did you encounter something weird?"
"Gou Lan sent me a bunch of information. I have also read that there are three most reliable theories for the destruction of Loulan. The first is invasion by other countries, the second is plague, and the third is biological invasion. "
I just finished.
Zhu Huan said: "I understand that the plague led to the annihilation of the country. After all, people in that era had poor medical technology. Once a large-scale infectious disease occurred, it was easy to wipe out the nation. But what is biological invasion?"
I said: "The information Xiao Bijing gave me recorded this. The creature that caused Loulan's destruction may be a mole cricket insect introduced from the two river basins. This thing has no natural enemies in Loulan. It lives in the soil and can be found in the Loulan area. They lived on the white plaster soil and entered the houses in groups to bite people to death. Since they could not resist this thing, the Loulan natives all moved away. But what exactly happened, you have to find out by yourself. explore."
After talking about this possibility, I was thinking, if Loulan was really destroyed because of this mole cricket insect, would this mole cricket be still alive?
Will we encounter something like this this time?
Exhaling a breath, I closed my eyes and rested my mind. There was only the buzzing roar of the engine in my ears.
I'm thinking about one thing, what are my chances of getting out alive this time.
As Zhou Ya said, the world is in chaos.
The reason why the world is in such chaos is all because of me. At least under the manipulation and slander of Fengmen and Juemen, it is indeed because of me that it became like this.
The leader of the Boatman Gang also said that I might be the one who caused chaos in the world.
Loulan!
Could it be the cemetery they chose for me?
Just when I was about to be overwhelmed by these messy thoughts.
Lao Kui said: "Shopkeeper, we will be there soon."
I opened my eyes and could already see the dilapidated houses and buildings in front of me.
It is dilapidated and full of the atmosphere of that era.
Lao Kui said: "There are ruts, and someone arrived before us. We don't know whether it is an enemy or a friend."
"Tell the people in the car behind you to be ready to take action." After I ordered, I stuffed two throwing knives into the leggings on my calves just in case.
The car stopped when it reached the edge of the Loulan ruins.
Xiao Yi said: "Brother Kui, Shopkeeper Li, let's go here. We don't know what the road conditions are ahead of us. It's easy to get stuck when we drive in."
I nodded and said yes, then got out of the car and took out the equipment from the trunk.
The ten of us here have finished counting the equipment and haven't waited to go in yet.
Two Asans walked out of the ruins, holding two wooden sticks with nails in their hands and grinning at us.
