After listening to it for so long, Yue Guanchao finally understood what Song Siyuan said and said, "You mean this magnetic field disorder is caused by the fish pendant? All the consequences are due to a chain of accidents caused by the magnetic field disorder?"
Song Siyuan said matter-of-factly: "We can make a rough assumption. Suppose that in the 23rd year of Zhenguan, General Ashner led the Tang army to the Shahai King's City. In order to protect the Shahai King's City, the last Queen of Shanshan in the ancient Shanshan Kingdom urged The magical power of the fish pendant..."
This magical force directly caused geomagnetic disorder, causing the strata on the west bank of the Hotan River and even the Hongbai Mountain to continuously vibrate. Eventually, the rock strata in the Hongbai Mountain ruptured and ground earthquakes occurred. The Sand Sea King City disappeared directly into the desert with flying sand and rocks and the shaking of the rock strata. Even the tributaries of the Hotan River were forced to cut off, forming the topography we see today. "
It was also because Queen Shanshan activated the power of the fish pendant, which caused changes in the celestial phenomena and the environment. Dark and chaotic sky began to appear in the sky of Shahai King City, and sandstorms and tornadoes also blew around. During this period, there were also flying sand and rocks and strong earthquakes. Seeing this The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty mistakenly believed that the place had been cursed by the devil, and regarded the experience of the earthquake and shaking of the mountains in the depths of the desert as a curse from God. They painted such a scene directly on the murals of the Thousand Buddha Cave Grottoes in Dunhuang.
The magnetic field disorder caused by the jade pendant obviously not only affects the hinterland of the desert, but also continues to spread outward!
In the same year, the city of Dunhuang was on fire. Birds lost their direction, flew around and crashed to death, weeping and bleeding. This coincided with the death of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty. The people regarded this as a sign from the sky and did not suspect the mystery. The power was recorded in some historical books as the devil trying to break through the seal.
Then, at the end of the Tang Dynasty, this chaotic magnetic field, or a mysterious force, continued to exert an influence on the desert hinterland, causing the animals in the desert hinterland to begin to experience a certain degree of alienation. This alienation may be concentrated in animals or plants. It will become bloodthirsty and cruel, or it may simply become an alienated form and become some kind of monster that is different from the normal state.
When they go out of the desert, they often attack people and animals, always endangering the safety of people in towns around the desert.
At this time, a large number of Tang Dynasty soldiers died in the desert. The mysterious power of chaos caused some dead people to become walking corpses and began to appear in the desert. In order to continuously obtain fresh corpses to maintain their survival, they began to As a monster hunter, he travels in the Western Region, helping people hunt down desert monsters that harm humans and animals.
In this way, you can not only help the people around the desert eliminate threats, but also find fresh corpses killed by them nearby to accommodate your soul.
Thousands of years have passed, and the people around the desert have recognized the existence of the monster hunter. In the eyes of the people, the monster hunter is neither dead nor alive. He cannot eat or breathe. Although this state is terrifying, it has never harmed them. On the contrary, he helped them deal with many monsters coming out of the desert.
They also gradually accepted the identity of monster hunters and regarded them as knights and protectors deep in the desert.
Over the past thousand years, sand erosion on the west bank of the Hotan River has never stopped. The land and rock formations that were originally cracked by earthquakes were covered by quicksand under the erosion of the wind and soil. They looked exactly like the surrounding deserts, but because this is The place where the chaotic power is the most serious will naturally become the desert hinterland of the devil and a place where strangers are not allowed to enter. .
Effortlessly, trace back to the source.
At this point, they already understood what Song Siyuan meant. If these situations are combined to look at it, it is indeed logical. Ever since Queen Shanshan activated the power of the fish pendant, the Devil's Desert has been continuously affected by the power of chaos, and it has not been completely affected to this day. eliminate.
"Then how to prove it?" Xu Xiake asked.
Song Siyuan said so much. Queen Shanshan activated the fish pendant to generate chaotic power. Up to now, it is just a hypothesis. If it cannot be verified as true, there will be no way to proceed to the next step, or even if it is proved that it really happened here. Due to geological disasters, there is no way to know where the Sand Sea King City has gone.
Regarding this question, Song Siyuan was obviously prepared. He pointed to the sand pond at the foot of Hongbai Mountain and said: "The places where there is no accumulation of water prove that the sand layer is connected to the underground river, which can sink all the rainwater to the bottom layer." , then, where water accumulates, it proves that the distance between the rock layer and the sand
The layer is very close, and they have no way to seep down to the underground river. Combined with the theory that there have been earthquakes here. "
"I think that in these places where there is no water, there is a high probability that there are a lot of rocks piled up. As long as we dig down along the pond, we can easily find these rocks. As long as we determine the rocks piled at the bottom, there is a high probability that they are. Can you tell where the Sand Sea King City is?"
Seeing that everyone didn't understand what she meant, Song Siyuan continued to explain: "Let's find some rocks on this mountain before we go down. They will be useful when we take them back later."
Everyone didn't know what her suggestion meant, but since Song Siyuan told her, they followed it. With her knowledge and cognitive ability, she must have discovered the secret on the rock formation, so they searched for it in the nearby grotto. He knocked out the outer skin of some stones to reveal the patterns inside and took them down the mountain.
During the busy period, the weather had cleared up. They followed the traces of camping to the Shahe River and completely cleaned up the sand that buried the tent. The tent gradually emerged from the sand layer and appeared on the sand. A few people blew and beat, and finally Just clean up the area around the tent.
After carefully counting the things inside, they found that due to the shelter of the tent, sand and soil did not enter the tent, and some of their equipment and objects could still be used. This was a blessing among misfortunes. If the camping place was near a dense pool of water, the tent would probably be It was already flooded and nothing was of use.
After confirming the condition of the tent, they began to make plans to go to the pond. They found the pond beside the river and carefully observed the condition of the pond.
These ponds are not large in area, at most the size of a roof, and are irregularly round in shape, just like a small quicksand pit. The surrounding area has been completely dry, and only the sand in it has settled in a bucket-like shape, forming a pit that is concave toward the sand. V-shaped water storage pond.
Song Siyuan said: "First clean up the water, and then excavate the sand and dust underneath. When we dig out the rock formations, we need to compare them with the stones we brought back. As long as we can prove that the stones buried underneath are the same as those on the Hongbai Mountain, The rock material and pattern are similar, which proves that geological disasters and earthquakes have occurred here. If we look for the address of the Sand Sea King City, we won't be like headless flies tearing it apart."
At this point, Song Siyuan had made it very clear. Yue Guanchao and a few guys began to use wooden buckets to lift the accumulated water in the pond.
