At this moment, my breathing is almost stagnant, and all I can hear is the beating of my heart.

A living corpse will not rot for a thousand years, and its head is harder than a stone!
Suddenly, I thought of the horrific scene I saw when I first entered the square, and I couldn't imagine what these people went through before they died.

Perhaps, it has something to do with the secret of Loulan's disappearance?But what does Loulan's secret have to do with me?

The curse on my body will not be removed, and I will not feel at ease all day. The original intention of entering the Taklimakan Desert is also to find clues to the Palace of the Queen Mother of the West, so as to find a way to lift the curse.

But good luck tricks people, and the clues haven't arrived yet, but I am trapped in the ruins of Loulan...

"Heh...hehe..."

The living dead, like a mummy, suddenly grinned, his chest rose and fell slightly, and a hoarse sound came out of his throat.

is it laughing?
Looking at the corners of his stiffly raised mouth, such a weird thought suddenly appeared in my mind.

If someone told me now that the person in front of me is a living person who became like this only because of a special disease, I would also believe it.

A sense of unprovoked terror haunted me, which made me even give up the idea of ​​​​shooting.

The skull of this thing is too hard, the bullet may not be able to penetrate its head, even if it is shot through, it may not be able to kill it thoroughly, although it is a dead person in the first place.

Suddenly, it stood up and led the group of undead away.

Just leave like this?I always feel that things are not that simple. Suddenly, a strong anxiety prompted me to recover and lean my back against the high wall. Only then did I feel that the tension dissipated a little.

Looking at the palace in front of me again, it is majestic and surrounded by high walls. The only way to get out is the mahogany door directly opposite the palace.

People who used to live here should be concubines and the like, but they should all have become living dead, right?

As I was thinking like this, I looked around. I didn't intend to open the door of the palace, because I didn't want to provoke those weird things again.

I need to determine a direction as soon as possible, because as far as I know, ancient imperial cities are generally intricate, and I don't want to get lost here.

Moreover, in the past few days, I have only added a small amount of water and food, but that food and water are not enough to maintain the consumption of the body.

In this way, I can't last too long at all.

As long as I stop, I can feel the weakness coming from deep in my body, and until now, I haven't found any trace of Fire Monkey, and I don't know where he went.

Da da da!
gunfire!The crisp sound made me refreshed all of a sudden, and what surprised me even more was that the source of this sound was not very far away from me!

I wish I could break through the door right now, but I quickly dismissed the idea.

Unless, I want to see the living dead smiling at me again.

Looking around, the empty courtyard looks a bit bleak, except for a few stone tables and benches, there is only a rockery close to the high wall.

And it was this two-meter-high rockery that gave me hope.

I climbed up the rockery carefully, and the distance from the top of the high wall was less than one meter. I only needed to grab and pull, and I could stand firmly on the top of the high wall. Can bear my weight, I can walk on it with confidence.

Even if the living dead are aware of me, they can't do anything to me at a distance of several meters.

But what I didn't expect was that when I walked towards the direction where the gunshots came from, the continuous gunfire just stopped suddenly and turned off.

Could it be that the fire monkey ran out of bullets?Or, he has been...

"Ah……"

Suddenly there was a hoarse voice from under the wall, which sounded so familiar.

who is it?

boom!
Suddenly, I felt as if something had hit me, and the whole wall was vibrating.

I quickly squatted down, and while stabilizing my center of gravity, I held up the flashlight and looked down the wall.

In an instant, I saw a blue-gray dead face!

Its left eyeball hangs in front of the eye socket, flickering, and there is still a smile on the corner of its mouth. This face is hardly too familiar, it is the living dead just now.

Just like the previous scene, after watching me quietly for a while, it led its own team of undead and walked away again.

I was keenly aware that it was walking in the same direction as me.

Maybe, I will encounter it again?
I took a deep breath, and always felt that this thing was waiting for me here on purpose, but it was impossible.

In short, let me think about these things after I find the fire monkey.

The team of living dead was walking in the same direction as me, but I could only take a step slower than it, and followed far behind the team of living dead.

But the further I walked, the more doubts I had in my heart.

There are ruins all around, and even the palaces on both sides are dilapidated.

This……

I can't figure it out.

Even the dwellings on the edge of the ancient city are quite complete, not to mention the majestic city, the capital of a country, how could it be in such ruins?

This is really unbelievable.

The flashlight flickered on and off, and it seemed that the power should be low, but fortunately, my sight was not affected.

I faintly saw something gleaming on the cracked bluestone slab.

After thinking about it, I jumped from the high wall and picked up those shiny things, which were still warm to the touch.

cartridge case?It seems that I'm going in the right direction, the fire monkey should be around here, at least, he hasn't gone far.

It was also at this time that the flashlight that had been providing me with a bright light went out.

damn it!There is no electricity at this time!
Immediately, there was darkness in his vision, and he couldn't see his fingers. He could only barely distinguish the direction by feeling.

And at this time, there were footsteps in the distance.

Just listening to the voice, my heart is half cold, it must be those living dead, and the number is not ordinary!
I wanted to turn around and run, but after thinking about it, I gave up. I am no different from a blind man now, even if I run, where can I go?
Like a headless fly, scurrying around in this weird imperial city, I'm afraid it will only die faster.

Just as I slowly sat down against the high wall behind me, a dazzling light suddenly shone into my eyes.

I can only subconsciously cover my eyes with my hands, and barely see a figure through the gap between my fingers.

Fire. Fire monkey?

I can't see that person's face very clearly, but I can tell it from the outline and clothing. It is indeed a fire monkey, that's right.

I let out a sigh of relief, got up with a smile, and walked slowly towards him, "It's great that you're fine."

"Um……"

The fire monkey forced a smile, turned his head away, obviously something was wrong.

At first, I didn't care, but after I took a few steps forward, I discovered the reason!

There are probably hundreds of undead in golden armor standing behind him!
