Queen's Detective

When standing on the platform and looking down, the whole ancient city can be seen, and only by entering it can you truly feel the size of the place.As far as the eye can see, there are old pavilions covered in sand and dust. The place where Yan Sanbai settled down should be a square market. The houses here are relatively low and neatly arranged.

It's hard to tell the direction underground, Yan Sanbai can only follow Pangpang, but Pangpang can't recognize the mechanism, so Yan Sanbai walks very hard, and has to stop every time he walks a certain distance.

He couldn't help but wonder, why are there so many institutions in this city?

Along the way, he also saw a lot of corpses, some of which seemed to have just died, and some had already exposed their bones. Thinking of the wounded people in the ghost city, there seemed to be an explanation.Moreover, there are antiques everywhere in this ancient city, if they can be taken out with their lives, they will definitely make more money than robbery.

The air smelled of blood, and there was a lingering smell of blood everywhere, stronger than the smell in the ghost market.Yan Sanbai walked all the way, and slowly came to the residential area, large and small houses were close together, Yan Sanbai walked through deserted streets and alleys, looked at some open doors, and could vaguely see the owner hanging Couplets on the main room.

Things are things, people are not things, Yan Sanbai walked past a big house, there were two lanterns hanging at the door, the lanterns were still very dilapidated, and there were holes everywhere.What made Yan Sanbai stop was that one of the two lanterns was red, and the other was white.

Red and white happy events, double happiness.

I walked past another well, and the dead tree beside the well was full of red ribbons. The redness had gradually faded, but the words on it were still clearly visible.It is that countless men and women, with their hearts of admiration for each other, wrote down their beautiful visions with their own hands and hung them on this marriage tree.

But what about those people now?

Where did that handsome young man in the groom's gown, that pretty girl with a red ribbon hanging on tiptoe go?

Those who opened the mouth answered the countless cobwebs on the gatehouse, the dust piled up in the corners, and the stone slabs covered with moss by the well.

The sound of the pipa became more and more urgent, as if urging, constantly urging, faster, faster.

Yan Sanbai could feel the voice getting closer and closer to him.

But the ancient city is too big, Yan Sanbai has been walking for so long, but he didn't see another living person.Fatty in front suddenly stopped, flapping his wings and circling restlessly in place.

"What's wrong?" Yan Sanbai frowned.

Pangpang came back and pulled his hair, making an eager humming sound.

The sound of the pipa was urgent like a marching order.

Yan Sanbai looked forward fiercely, and saw black shadows rushing towards him in the corners in all directions, and he suddenly understood the meaning of the sound of the pipa—go!go!

The sky suddenly turned dark, and the originally bright underground ancient city was suddenly overwhelmed by dark clouds.Yan Sanbai's pupils shrank involuntarily, he had never seen such a scene - swarms of bats flew out of the countless stone holes above his head, sand lizards as long as a human's palm mixed with a large number of scorpions swaggered through the market, and Some animals that Yan Sanbai couldn't even name, went up to the sky and swallowed up the ancient city in an instant.

"Oh, what the hell kind of place am I going here?!" Ling Ding held an iron rod that came from nowhere, and jumped three feet high, "Be careful, these things are poisonous!"

"Crack!" The string broke.

The pipa player looked down at his bleeding fingers, frowning and speechless.

Two fingers pinched his chin, and a handsome and evil face appeared in front of him, looking at him with deep eyes, "Do you think they can hear you playing so hard?"

What responded to him was an indifferent look, but the handsome young man seemed to see a trace of arrogance from it.

He stretched out his hand to caress the smooth skin in his hand, and the delicate touch made him curl his lips, "Aren't you all from Jiangnan like this? Even men are fragrant. I heard they call you... Brother Ying Son? This name is very nice."

Brother Ying finally showed a hint of disgust, "Take your hand away."

What responded to him was a sudden increase in strength, and several bruises were pinched on Brother Ying's chin, but he held back in a daze, and kept his mouth tightly shut without making a muffled groan.

The man probably thought it was funny, let him go, twirled his fingers, and said: "Keep playing, if you make me happy, I might let your friend live."

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Brother Ying secretly took a deep breath, clenched and loosened his bleeding hand, "The string is broken, I need a new pipa."

Outside, the black tide was still raging.

Like a torrential rain, the embankment was broken, and then the mountain torrent broke out.

The most frightening thing is the scorpion hiding among the sand lizards. Its raised tail is very poisonous. If you give it to you suddenly, your life will be explained.

Yan Sanbai kept running again, holding a large umbrella found in a blacksmith's shop in his hand. The umbrella surface was very strong after brushing with countless layers of tung oil, which helped Yan Sanbai a lot.

Holding an umbrella, he went upstream in the torrent.Fatty was so frightened that he hid, so he had to use the most primitive way to call someone.

"Qinghe! Li Qinghe!"

"Where are you!"

After an unknown amount of time, a response finally came from the side, "Come over here!"

But this is not Li Yan's voice.Yan Sanbai turned his head, and saw Wu Tuo squatting on a stone lion and waving to him.

Yan Sanbai went up and down a few times, "Did you see General Wen?"

"Who is Li Qinghe?" Wu Tuo answered irrelevantly.

"It's none of your business."

Wu Tuo stomped on a scorpion, and played with two full moon scimitars in his hands, "We are brothers and sisters on the same boat now, don't be so cold, brother."

Yan Sanbai glanced at him, the big umbrella turned into a flower in his hand, and pushed back the little things around, "You can follow me, but don't hold me back."

Yo heh.

Wu Tuo raised his eyebrows as he watched Yan Sanbai holding an umbrella walking in the black rain of bats and scorpions.He reached out and stroked his mustaches, thoughtfully.

"Hey, wait for me!" Wu Tuo hurriedly chased after him, "Why are you so sympathetic, how dangerous it was to leave me alone just now."

Yan Sanbai didn't say a word, and the lightness kung fu under his feet was so vigorous that Wu Tuo was exhausted just by catching up with him.But now he had to accept his fate, Wu Tuo had to admit that Yan Sanbai opened the way, and he was much more relaxed.

Yan Sanbai in front stopped suddenly.Wu Tuo finally had a chance to catch up, and when he stood beside him, he saw several corpses wrapped in the group of black sand lizards and scorpions, flowing from east to west like water.

The corpse was already mutilated, its upper body and lower limbs were torn apart, and in just a few short breaths, it was moved from one tree to another, and all the remaining flesh and blood were eaten away. Along the way left a place of bones.

As for who those corpses were, it has long been impossible to tell.

"You don't have to sympathize with them, they are all here to pan for gold, life and death are life and death." Wu Tuo said.

"Gold panning?"

"You should have seen that ghost market. Anyone who can get out of here alive will buy and sell goods there, and those things are brought in from here."

"But this is the territory of the ghost king." Yan Sanbai didn't think that the ghost king would be so magnanimous to let others come to his house to pan for gold.

"You don't know that, this ancient city is full of dangers everywhere, beast tides like this happen once a day, the ghost king let us in, in fact, he just borrowed our hands to help him get rid of these damned little things, as for Things we can take away... How many people do you think can get out of here after experiencing such a beast tide?"

"There were a lot of people in the ghost market last night."

"Let's put it this way, people come in here every day, but if they want to go out, they only have two chances a month. The method of opening and closing the door is in the hands of the ghost king, and the door here can only be opened from the inside, unless the entire Crescent Lake is blown up. Otherwise, it is impossible for someone to attack in, and the ghost king has nothing to fear."

"You seem to...know this place very well?" Yan Sanbai turned to look at him, his clear eyes seemed to be able to see the bottom of his heart.

Wu Tuo stroked his two mustaches, smiled, and didn't answer, "It's you, you are very skilled in martial arts. When did the Great Perimeter Army play such a powerful role? I have been in the desert for several years, and I have never heard of it. "

"Then you know now." Yan Sanbai leaped up, once again turning into a white cloud and drifting away, his demeanor and tone were fully transmitted by Li Yan.

"Hey!" Wu Tuo hurriedly chased after him, and saw Yan Sanbai suddenly thrust the umbrella forward, spun it to sweep away the sand lizards and scorpions in front, and with force, he drew a person out of it.

The man seemed to have just been involved and was still alive.But after being poisoned, he would not live long.

Yan Sanbai frowned, and continued to walk forward.

Seeing Yan Sanbai tirelessly pulling one person after another out of the poison pile, Wu Tuo couldn't help but said: "You saved it for nothing, they are looking for their own death, why should you be merciful."

Yan Sanbai didn't answer, just walked forward while caring about me.If he sees it, he will save it, if he doesn't see it, he won't look for it all over the city, and what he asks is nothing but what he wants.

But it was precisely because of this that the speed of the two of them slowed down a lot.

"Qinghe! Li Qinghe!" Yan Sanbai still yelled persistently, while Wu Tuo looked at him from behind, like looking at an ascetic monk.Holding an umbrella and walking in the bitter wind and rain, his steps and eyes are firm enough. In order to find that 'Li Qinghe', he can break through all the hardships.

So who is Li Qinghe?Wu Tuo suddenly became extremely curious.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

"I'm here! Don't move, I'll go find you!" Finally, there was a reply from the distance, and Wu Tuo saw a flash of light suddenly burst out in Yan Sanbai's eyes.

"I'm not moving, come here." He really stopped and let the poisonous insects and beasts all around rush at him desperately, but he didn't move a step.The big umbrella in his hand is like a blooming lotus, turning into a stream of fresh air to cleanse away evil spirits.

Wu Tuo clicked his tongue twice, "Are you really so obedient? Then who the hell is Li Qinghe? Could it be that you are a good friend? I'm so puzzled, this... ouch, who the hell kicked me?!"

Wu Tuo turned around, and saw a handsome young man appearing beside Yan Sanbai. Danfeng's eyes were raised slightly, and his brows were full of presumptuousness. He looked at him with a displeased tone, "Who the hell are you?"
