C1951 A Strange Ancient City

Yun Duoduo looked at Gu Yuan and said reluctantly, "Mr. Gu Yuan, can you not leave?"

Gu Yuan shook his head and said, "Duo Duo, I have to go back. My friend, my family is waiting for me to go back!"

Yun Duoduo was a little sad and did not say anything else.

The two of them were silent for a while before Gu Yuan changed the topic.

"Duo Duo, is there an ancient city in Xuan Kunshan's secret realm? Is it dangerous there?"

Yun Duoduo was stunned for a moment. She blinked and began to recall. As expected, her attention was diverted. She was obviously not that sad anymore.

"I don't know. I only know that in our Xuan Kunshan's secret realm, there has never been an ancient city..."

Yun Duoduo tilted her little head. After thinking for a while, she said in a puzzled tone, "That shouldn't be the case. Why would there be an ancient city in the True Fire Hall's secret realm?

According to what I know, it is impossible for an ancient city to appear in the secret realm of Nine Row Sects."

"An ancient city can only appear in the joint secret realm."

"What is the secret realm of the ___?"

"It's a secret realm opened by a few sects. As for how long it can be opened for... It depends on how many resources each sect has invested. Generally speaking, it can only be opened in seven days at most. For example, the secret realm that we have entered this time. It's very rare for it to last for such a long time."

"Our mystic realm should be ending soon, right?"

"I don't know how to calculate the time. The time in the secret realm is not synchronized with the outside world.

But I don't think it will be more than three days. It should be something that will happen in a day or two. "

"But if there is no ancient city in the secret realm, then what did Chen Shu and the others see?"

"Don't think so much about it. Let's wait until we have a look at the place first."

Gu Yuan took out a map and looked at it carefully.

According to the clues Chen Shu gave them, the abandoned ancient city should be in the depths of the desert, by the dried lake.

Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo had to bear the scorching sun above their heads as they trekked with great difficulty.

After walking for a long time, they finally saw the dried up lake that Chen Shu had mentioned.

This lake, which should have occupied an extremely large area, had already become a dried up huge pit.

If it was not for the clues that Chen Shu had provided previously, her first impression would have told Gu Yuan that this was a dried up lake.

Gu Yuan would have even thought that this was a large rift that had been created by the earth movement.

They walked along the dried lake, little by little.

The sky was filled with sand, and there was not even a reference. The two of them had walked in the yellow sand for an unknown amount of time under the scorching sun.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in the desert.

The wind that swept up a large amount of yellow sand on the desert swept the land into a dim yellow color.

The violent sandstorm blew Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo so hard that they could not even walk steadily. Their eyes could not even open.

Afraid that Yun Duoduo would be blown into a big pit by the sandstorm, Gu Yuan held Yun Duoduo's hand tightly along the way.

Both of their eyes were almost closed. They leaned against Gu Yuan and used their feet to scout the way in front of them. They barely managed to keep moving forward.

They did not know how long they had walked in the sand that filled the sky.

They only opened their eyes when they felt the sand on their faces gradually subside.

As soon as they opened their eyes, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.

A city wall had collapsed, and they could even see the magnificent ancient city of dilapidated houses near the city wall. It appeared in front of Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo.

They looked at the dilapidated city wall that was more than ten meters tall.

They didn't know where the city gate had been thrown, but it was enough for several large carriages to pass through the hole in the city gate.

Who would have thought that in this desert filled with yellow sand, there was actually such a majestic city in the past.

They finally found it.

Gu Yuan brought Yun Duoduo with him and carefully walked into this majestic city in the past.

Walking past the deep hole in the city gate, they saw a straight and wide street.

Unfortunately, it should have been a bustling and bustling street in the past.

Now, only a patch of yellow sand and withered grass remained.

On both sides of the street, the tall and exquisite buildings were now nothing but ruins.

The houses here seemed to have been built with stones.

Therefore, even after experiencing the passage of time and weathering, they were still able to retain a rough shape.

However, when the wind blew past.

Gu Yuan's eyes could clearly see that the various buildings built on the stone walls were turning into sand.

Every time the wind blew, fine grains of sand would flow out from the gaps between the buildings.

Perhaps, in another one to two hundred years, this abandoned ancient city might even disappear into the vast desert.

"Mr. Gu Yuan, isn't this city a bit too big? We will have to search aimlessly for a long time. Do you remember where the herbs are growing? "

Time turned the ancient city into a monotonous ruin and deathly stillness.

The two of them walked the entire way, from the initial shock and novelty, to the boredom they were feeling now.

Yun Duoduo couldn't help but stop in her tracks and ask Gu Yuan, who was beside her, about the clues of the spirit medicine.

Gu Yuan thought for a while and took out the simple map that Chen Shu drew for him in his arms.

On this small piece of paper, other than the suggested route to the abandoned ancient city, there was also a small map in the corner.

The map used simple lines to roughly outline the overall outline of the abandoned ancient city.

In a few irregular circles and the lines representing the street, there was a small black dot.

That dot represented the location of the spiritual medicine that Chen Shu mentioned.

Gu Yuan looked at the sun in the sky and compared it to the map on the paper.

He felt that the spiritual herb should be in the southern region of the abandoned ancient city.0

They were currently in the south of the east side of the city.

Putting away the map, Gu Yuan pointed to the street next to him.

"Going in this direction, we should be there soon."

The two of them turned the main road into a small path at the side.

Although it was called a small path, it was actually enough for two carriages to walk side by side.

However, the architectural style along the street gradually changed from the open mode on both sides of the street in front of them to the current residence mode.

Gu Yuan estimated that the buildings on the left and right of this small street should have belonged to the residential area of the abandoned ancient city a long time ago.

After walking into the small street, he turned towards the south and turned into two small alleys with only walls and no doors.

Gu Yuan, who was carefully scouting ahead, suddenly felt his clothes being pulled a few times.

He stopped and looked at Yun Duoduo, who was pulling his clothes behind him, in confusion.

"Mr. Gu Yuan, do you feel that there seems to be something around us?"

Yun Duoduo looked nervous and looked around from time to time. She even reached out her little hand to rub her arm, but she looked a little scared.

"Duo Duo, wait here for a while. I'll go and take a look. You must not run around."

Gu Yuan frowned and asked Yun Duoduo to stay where she was. Duo Duo nodded in agreement.

Gu Yuan then tapped the tip of his foot lightly. Like a civet cat, he lightly jumped onto the roof by the side.

The dry and violent wind was still blowing from time to time.

Other than the sound of sand flowing in the wind, there were no other sounds that he shouldn't have made.
