This dream was not finished.

Early the next morning, Cheng Xuyuan was awakened by the aroma of breakfast.Waking up from a clear dream, the handsome figure standing by the bed holding breakfast greets his eyes.

"Go wash up." Tang Yunxian said to him with a smile, "You can leave after eating."

Cheng Xuyuan was relieved from the shock brought by the dream, he blinked, and turned his attention to the fragrant food.

After breakfast, everyone gathered together, checked the necessary luggage, took a few camels that had been booked in advance to the post station in the town, and walked across the long road to the desert under the scorching sun.

Many residents in the town claimed to have seen the ancient country, and Tang Yunxian went to ask them about it.But these people's statements are all kinds of strange, and the locations they refer to are also located in the southeast, north, and west, which is simply dizzying.

Tang Yunxian simply gave up, took out the Gaode map, clicked a mark on the place where his finger pointed, and resigned himself to heading in that direction.

Before leaving the town, Zhao Xintong couldn't help but glance back.After all, this was a dangerous journey, and she still felt a little timid.

The small town on the edge of the desert is like a jewel inlaid in the wind and sand. The greening is well done, and the exotic buildings shine brightly in the sun, forming a unique landscape in the desert.

Everyone riding on camels gradually drifted away, and the town gradually turned into a small black shadow in the wind and sand.

The scorching sun scorched everyone, and even if they were fully armed, they could feel the scorching heat waves coming wave after wave.

In Tang Yunxian's backpack, there are the compass borrowed from Lu Tan, the key left by Grandpa Zhao Xintong, and some archaeological manuscripts related to Xingguo.

When the camel team kept approaching the center of the desert, the compass trembled.

But because it was put in the bag, Tang Yunxian didn't notice it.

Time flies by in the desert, the sun is overhead and the team stops for lunch.

He Zhen thoughtfully handed Cheng Xuyuan a bottle of mineral water. For some reason, he suddenly felt that He Zhen looked familiar.

After lunch, Tang Yunxian sat on the back of the camel, continued to feel the natural sunbathing of the desert, and his head became dizzy.He couldn't help lying on the hump, sleepiness gradually invaded his mind.

This state seems to be quite comfortable...

Between half-dream and half-awake, countless small voices rang in my ears, gradually becoming louder and clearer.

"Burn him!"

"Burn the criminals to death!"

"Burn Li Yuan to death!"

Tang Yunxian frowned slightly, not quite understanding why these fierce voices were filled with strong indignation.

Immediately afterwards, he seemed to have entered a dream again, and the voices in his ears became more and more noisy, as if millions of people shouted at the same time, vowing to burn that man named "Li Yuan" to powder.

The chaotic crowd, the scorching torches, and the running steps.

The palace appeared in front of Tang Yunxian's eyes. He was floating in mid-air, and saw a familiar figure coming out of the bedroom, dressed in a black dragon robe, but he looked a little embarrassed at the moment.

The emperor's face was pale, and even the dragon crown on his head was crooked.He anxiously grabbed the minister next to him and roared, "Where's Li Yuan?!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." The minister's legs went limp at once, and he fell to his knees in front of the emperor with a "plop", "Master Li, he is in the Star Picking Tower..."

The emperor saw the burning star building in the distance at a glance. The raging flames formed tongues of flames, like fire dragons rising from the ground, which looked shocking under the night.

"Far, far..."

The emperor's voice trembled obviously, the majesty of the emperor disappeared, and his eyes turned red instantly.

He didn't get angry or cry, but lost all his strength in an instant.

It seems that he has been the emperor for too long, he is used to living with a mask, and at this moment, seeing his beloved being burned to death, he is so sad that he doesn't know how to react, he even forgot to breathe.

The great sorrow was like a toppled mountain. The emperor took a few steps forward, and finally fell to the ground.

In the distance, the military officers and soldiers were still cheering for the victory. Li Yuan, whom they called the "Criminal Minister", finally died.

The sad ending of this scene came too suddenly, and Tang Yunxian fell into sadness immediately.

He could tell that the Emperor deeply loved the man named Li Yuan, and Li Yuan was also a kind-hearted astrologer who cared about the common people...

Why did things turn out this way?

Before he could solve his doubts, a jolt of the camel woke Tang Yunxian from his dream.

"Tang Yunxian, be careful!" Tai Sui's voice came from the side, anxious and worried, "There is quicksand under your feet!"

Tang Yunxian quickly looked at the camel's feet, only to see that the camel's footsteps seemed to have stepped on a sponge, sinking slowly, while the others had already quickly moved away from this area.

Logically speaking, when quicksand is encountered in the desert, it is usually in a relatively large area. It is unlikely that Tang Yunxian almost only appears under his feet.

Everyone got off the camel one after another, not knowing what to do for a while.

Cheng Xuyuan took out a rope from his bag, which was originally used to tie clothes, and he quickly rushed forward with the rope.

He Zhen's voice sounded: "That's quicksand, be careful—"

Before he finished speaking, Cheng Xuyuan jumped up from the flat bottom with a stride, stirring up dust all over the place.He made a jump impossible for a normal human, and slammed his long legs onto the camel's back.

Before Tang Yunxian had time to react, Cheng Xuyuan had already picked him up, and easily led him to jump off the camel's back, hugging him and rolling in the sand a few times.

Tang Yunxian didn't care about the gravel getting into his clothes, his eyes were all focused on the face of the boy who was holding him.

The closer the distance, the more exciting this face is.

Cheng Xuyuan pushed him away violently, "If you hug me again, your camel will die."

Tang Yunxian got up from him in a daze, watched the young man stand up, flicked the rope from a distance, pulled the camel's hind legs and rescued it from the quicksand, his movements were as easy as pulling a camel. puppy.

Everyone was shocked by Cheng Xuyuan, who looked so weak. No one could match his jumping and explosive power even among national athletes!

After saving Tang Yunxian and the camel, Cheng Xuyuan calmly sat back on the back of his camel, and said loudly to everyone, "Pay attention to your feet, and you can set up camp after walking a little further..."

Next, everyone thought that there would be no more accidents, but something strange happened.

Every once in a while, small quicksands would appear under Tang Yunxian's feet, but fortunately, he was on guard and escaped without incident every time.

This time, the small quicksands seemed to guide him, and they didn't appear again until dark.

The moonlight was like water, and the desert without the sun cooled down rapidly. Everyone hurriedly took out the cotton jackets and tents they had prepared, and prepared to set up camp.

Zhao Xintong, who was warming himself by the fire in the desert, couldn't help sighing: "People who can walk into the desert are really brave..."

In fact, they are not in real danger so far, so everyone can sleep at ease at night.

However, in the middle of the night, a strong wind suddenly blew in the desert.

Awakened by the sound of the wind outside the tent, Cheng Xuyuan carefully poked his head out for a look, but suddenly stopped breathing.

"Get up, get up!" Cheng Xuyuan vigorously shook Tang Yunxian awake.

When Tang Yunxian woke up and saw the panicked expression of the young man, he immediately asked nervously, "What happened?"

"It looks like a sandstorm!"

Upon hearing this sentence, Tang Yunxian was shocked, and ran out of the tent in a panic, only to see a hurricane blowing not far away, with sand flying all over the sky, like a horror movie under the pale moonlight.

The two hurriedly woke up the people in each tent, and everyone hurriedly put away their things and ran in the opposite direction of the hurricane.Tang Yunxian rode on the back of the camel, staring closely at Cheng Xuyuan's direction, for fear that something might happen to him.

However, the camel did not panic at all, and was not even willing to leave. It took a few minutes to cover a distance of less than five meters.It seems that hurricanes are not terrible for them.

Cheng Xuyuan seemed to have seen something, he jumped off the camel, and ran towards Hurricane amidst the exclamation of the crowd.

After a few minutes, the hurricane slowly died down.

Everyone was stunned.

"Look at-"

Cheng Xuyuan waved for everyone to come over. Everyone was relieved to see the hurricane disappear, and walked to where Cheng Xuyuan was.

A shocking picture appeared in front of my eyes.

Under the night, a palace appeared not far away!

The sand receded like the tidal sea, and the palace slowly rose from the ground.This splendid palace is exactly the same as the palace in Tang Yunxian's dream, and the carved beams and painted buildings look a little creepy under the moonlight.

"This, is this true..." Zhao Xintong couldn't even close his mouth.

Several accompanying professionals were also completely stunned. They had never seen such a strange scene in decades of practice.

He Zhen picked up his bag, brought some archaeological tools, and said to everyone: "Maybe some mechanism has been triggered, let's go in and have a look while it is still above the ground."

Everyone was a little hesitant, but the magnificent palace was too attractive, and there might be rare treasures hidden inside.Thinking about it this way, several professionals were also moved. They immediately picked up the toolbox, turned on the flashlight and led the way.

The corridor leading to the palace is the same as the corridor in Cheng Xuyuan's gate, long, wet and dark.

Beside the main entrance of the palace, stood several soldiers in armor.

Someone shone a flashlight on their faces, and they screamed in fright——

The soldiers stared, their mouths filled with sand, their eyeballs burst, as if they had been buried alive.

But at the same time they stood very straight, as if they were still guarding the door.

Memory fragments plunged into Tang Yunxian's brain, and his thoughts drifted into the distance uncontrollably, and the surrounding scenes gradually became blurred.

The soldiers in front of him slowly became alive in his sight, and there was no more sand on their bodies. The time went back to the night thousands of years ago. These soldiers were talking about a coup in the palace outside the palace gate. .

The coup began with a drought in the Star Kingdom.After the drought, various natural disasters followed one after another, and all the astrologers in the world said that it was because of the evil king coming to the world.

Taking advantage of this turmoil in the world, Prime Minister Zhong intends to launch a coup against the taxation of the people, but is blocked by the officials headed by Li Yuan.

"Prime Minister Zhong is the head of all officials, His Majesty will definitely listen to him." One of the soldiers said confidently.

The second soldier did not agree, he said: "The new policy that the prime minister said is obviously not beneficial to the people, I think His Majesty will stand by Li Yuan's side."

"Li Yuan is just an astrologer." The third soldier beside him said, "Although His Majesty thinks highly of him, you probably won't listen to him in this kind of court affairs?"

"But let me say that the prime minister's implementation of the New Deal is just to strengthen his own branches, not for the common people at all."

"His Majesty is seriously ill now, Li Yuan alone is no match for the prime minister, if you don't believe me, make a bet, bet a pot of wine..."

The soldiers were talking to each other, the palace door was suddenly opened, and a little eunuch rushed out with a panicked expression.

"What's the matter, so flustered?" A soldier grabbed the little eunuch.

The little eunuch's legs were trembling, and he said with tears in his voice: "It's not good, it's not good... Seeing that His Majesty couldn't sleep for a long time, Prime Minister Zhong's subordinates led a group of people and threatened to burn the Zhaixing Tower to the main palace." regulation……"

"what--"

At this moment, a piercing scream woke Tang Yunxian from the illusion. He looked blankly at the source of the scream, but saw...

A sharp knife was stuck in the chest of a professional desert escort.

And the handle of the sharp knife was being held in the hands of a soldier who had become a mummy.
