Queen's Detective

Chapter 108 Dead City

"This kind of poison should be a kind of Gu poison." Yan Sanbai had stayed in Yaowang Valley for more than half a year, and he had a good understanding of the medicinal properties of various poisons. The amount of medicine, only Gu poison has such a miraculous effect.

"What should we do now?" Ling Ding looked at the corpse on the ground, a little anxious.

"There is another stupid way." Yan Sanbai turned to look at Wen Yang, "General Wen, please enter the customs quickly and find some boxes of sacrifices for us. You can put anything in it, as long as it looks similar to Wu Tuo. The sacrifices are similar."

It may not be possible to sacrifice Crescent Lake with things from Crescent Lake. To be on the safe side, it is more prudent to go back and get it.Wen Yang was quite concerned about Qing Ci's style, so he turned around and left without saying a word.

So back and forth, a toss is a day.Today, no one else came to Crescent Moon Lake to stay overnight, and the missing Wu Tuo and Brother Ying never appeared again.

At sunset, Wen Yang brought back seven big boxes, and a group of people gathered by the lake, and at the same time as yesterday, they threw all the boxes into the lake.

The sacrifice to the lake is completed, and the next thing is to wait.

The night fell, and the moon climbed overhead again. It was still a crescent moon tonight, but it was fuller than yesterday's.Everyone waited with bated breath in the Dragon Palace, Yan Sanbai and Li Yan stood side by side by the window, staring at the Crescent Moon Lake outside.

"coming."

The lake water began to surge again, at first it was subtle, and the ripples spread out in circles.Then it boiled again, just like last night, with gusts of wind blowing.

Lone Ding grabbed the big pillar beside him and looked around nervously, as if there would be evil spirits around at any time, goosebumps all over his body were about to rise.

The wind tonight seems to be much stronger than last night, lying on the doors and windows, whimpering and banging.

"Gudu." Someone swallowed involuntarily, and at this moment, a piece of light suddenly came into sight not far away.

"It's the Empress Hall! There are lights over there!" a soldier exclaimed.

Empress Hall?Is Wu Tuo back?Or Brother Ying?

Yan Sanbai floated out almost at the moment when the thought came into being, and everyone felt that Yan Sanbai had already gone outside, heading straight for the Empress Hall.

Li Yan stayed where he was, as if waiting for something.

Yan Sanbai exploded at the fastest speed, even before he could push the window open, he broke in directly, and rolled lightly on the ground, his gaze swept around like a torch, and then his eyes sank—as expected, he turned the tiger away from the mountain.

There was only one corpse lying there in the huge space, and the bright red blood flowed out from under his body.Yan Sanbai recognized his face, it was one of Wen Yang's soldiers.

Before he had time to catch his breath, Yan Sanbai turned back immediately.

But it was too late.

The huge Dragon Palace, with flickering candles, was empty again.Looking around, Yan Sanbai was the only one left in the entire Crescent Moon Lake.

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, when Yan Sanbai opened his eyes again, there was no panic in his eyes.He took out the small bamboo tube hanging from his waist and poured out a small golden bean.Little Douzi rolled and rolled in the palm of his hand, then suddenly trembled, stretched out, spread his wings, fluttering and planted his head between Yan Sanbai's fingers, as if he was about to come back to sleep.

"Fatty, fat, take me to him." Yan Sanbai gently poked it with his fingers.

Pangpang was woken up by his poking, rolled a few more times, and then flew up reluctantly, staggering like drunk.

Yan Sanbai followed behind it, and after seeing it hit the pillar for the third time, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, pulled out one of his hair and tied it to it, holding it behind him like flying a kite, so that it wouldn't take it again. I fainted.

Pangpang finally got serious, and flew hard in front, it flew out of the Dragon Palace, and brought Yan Sanbai to the shore all the way.

Yan Sanbai felt the pulling force in his hands, and asked hesitantly, "Are you letting me into the water?"

Pangpang can't speak, and he wants to fly to the lake anyway.

Yan Sanbai looked at the dark lake that had gradually calmed down, his body stiffened involuntarily.He was originally afraid of water, and the color of this water was so similar to the black water back then.

However, Li Yan, Brother Ying, and Wen Yang were all gone, so I had to find them.Just now, the other party obviously did not want Yan Sanbai, or Yin Ting, to find the door, so even though Yan Sanbai guessed that the other party might play tricks, he still chose to use his tricks, otherwise the other party might never be exposed in front of them. where the door is.

But Li Yan split up with him, he had worms with golden-haired wings on his body, and Yan Sanbai had fat in his hands, so he would definitely be able to find him.

But now it seems that it is a bit self-defeating.

Yan Sanbai became anxious, he paced back and forth by the lake, taking deep breaths again and again to calm himself down.

Then, he stopped suddenly, looked at the black lake, slowly took out a cloth bag from his arms, took out a gold needle and inserted it into the top of his head—this process was very short, and the effect was very significant, but the pain involved was not enough outsiders.

Yan Sanbai quickly calmed down, there was no wave in his eyes, as if all his emotions were locked.He quickly put Pangpang away, took out the last bottle of antidote pills and swallowed two, then jumped into the water without hesitation.

Yan Sanbai couldn't open his eyes.

The water is poisonous. Although his body has a certain degree of anti-toxicity, he can't stay in this kind of place for a long time, so he just swallowed two pills beforehand.But pills are useless for fragile eyes.

The practice of banning the five senses is particularly effective at this time, especially after Yan Sanbai inserted the golden needle, the flow of a wave of water can be easily felt.

The long black hair spread out in the water and swayed like free-growing aquatic plants.Putting aside distracting thoughts, Yan Sanbai sank toward the increasingly cold bottom of the lake, and after a while, finally touched the soft bottom of the lake.

He closed his eyes and groped around like a blind man.There were boxes everywhere at the bottom of the lake, Yan Sanbai walked a few steps while holding the edge of the box, stepped on something hard, guessed the shape, it should be a bone.

The turtle's breathing technique can't last long, Yan Sanbai can only find it as soon as possible.But sometimes the more urgent the more clueless, Yan Sanbai simply stopped, and the breath of the whole person became more and more distant.

With his eyes closed, he stood quietly like an ancient stone statue, his long black hair spread out in the water without wind.Although the lake water was black, there was still a gleam of light coming down from the surface of the lake. The gleam of light hit his face, his eyelashes trembled slightly, shaking off tiny air bubbles.

Suddenly, he felt air passing behind his ears.

He walked in that direction and came across a large upright box. The air flow came from the gap between the sides of the box and the mud at the bottom of the lake.

Yan Sanbai tried it, but the box sank so deep that it was impossible to pull it out.But there is air gushing out from below, which means there must be something going on here!

He took a deep breath, mobilized all his internal strength, stood up with his feet, and pressed down hard—crash!

The box loosened and sank quickly, followed by a huge suction force, Yan Sanbai had no time to move, and was dragged down along with the box.

The world was turned upside down for a while, and Yan Sanbai couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north, up, left, and right for a while due to the impact of the huge water flow. He only felt that as the water flow was rushed far away, the air in his lungs became less and less, and his breathing gradually became a little difficult. He instinctively Headed upstream, and at last—broke the water!

Yan Sanbai quickly went ashore, pulled out the golden needle, took out the pill and swallowed two more, then immediately ran errands and meditated to activate the medicine.

A trace of water vapor emerged from his clothes, and Yan Sanbai's face turned black, and it took a while for it to return to normal.

Exhaling a long breath of foul air, he stood up, the clothes on his body were already half dry, which would not affect his actions.

Only now did he have time to look at the surrounding situation, and found that this place was actually an underground river, and the water in the river was of course dark.Moreover, the surrounding areas are very spacious, and the stones have been ground away, as if they had been deliberately excavated.

Before he had time to think about it, Yan Sanbai continued to let Pangpang lead the way.This time Pangpang flew very fast, and after a while, he led Yan Sanbai into a corridor, and plunged into the maze of tunnels extending in all directions under the desert.

However, no matter how long the road is under Yan Sanbai's lightness skill, it is not a problem. Soon, he saw the light at the end of the long corridor, and he followed the light, and a mysterious and magnificent picture scroll gradually unfolded In front of him.

Outside the corridor is a platform that is only big enough for one person to stand on. When standing on the platform and looking down, people will realize that they are standing at a very high place.

Below is a huge pit that is as big as Crescent Lake, and inside the pit is a densely packed group of buildings that are covered in wind, frost and dust, but cannot hide its magnificence at all.

It's like a bowl made by the gods in the prehistoric universe, containing a mysterious ancient city, sleeping under the sea of ​​sand in the silent years.

And Yan Sanbai was the traveler who inadvertently broke into the miracle, watching all this in astonishment, lost all words.

He suddenly remembered the family motto of the Xiao family not to leave Crescent Lake until death, and the ancient desert scroll that caused the ancestors of the Xiao family to betray the Yaowang Valley, and had a vague guess about this place.

"Ah——!" A scream suddenly pierced the silence. Because of the distance, the sound was not loud, but the echo was continuous.

A rush of pipa sounds followed, like overturning a jade plate containing beads, and the beads were sprinkled on the bluestone slab, continuously, more urgent than the rain in midsummer.

Yan Sanbai didn't stay any longer, and jumped into the ancient city, but as soon as his toes landed, he felt something bad, his pupils shrank suddenly, his body fell to the side forcefully, and he hurriedly rolled away.

"Tu Tu Tu Tu Tu!" Rows of arrows were nailed into the bluestone slab almost rubbing against his back, even Yan Sanbai could not help sweating from his forehead.

He got up from the ground in embarrassment, a layer of dust rolled on his clothes that were not completely dry, but Yan Sanbai was in no mood to wipe them.

If his place is so dangerous, what about Li Yan's side?nothing will happen, right?

"Be careful!" With a swish, the folding fan closed, and the hard bone of the fan hit a poisoned throwing knife, and at the same time, a big hand pulled away the person who hadn't reacted yet.

Li Yan frowned and looked at the wounds in front of him, so deadly, there was a trace of killing intent in his brows.

He looked to the north of the city, the place where the sound of the pipa came from - the ghost king?He wants to see who is hiding in this dead city!
