Chapter 25 The Golden altar
Chapter 25 The Golden Platform
Immediately listening to the masked woman talk about the past, Su Yong only had a long sigh.
"Are you watching those pythons get out of the ground?"
The masked girl nodded: "At that time, I was still holding my brother's hand and standing on the steps of the Golden Temple. Seeing the yellow sand coming from the outside of the city, countless people fled everywhere and cried with fear. At this time, the underground green bricks suddenly cracked, and countless pythons came out. My brother threw me out with all his strength and threw me to General Modu, who came from the horse. And he was swept away by the python in the blink of an eye..."
Modu recalled the scene of those years and couldn't help sighing.
"Where was your father at that time?" Su Yong frowned and asked.
"Father and mother are in the Golden Temple. My brother took me out to have a look when he heard the noise outside. Tears gushed out from the corners of the masked woman's eyes: "I looked back when General Modu was out of the city. At that time, the whole Golden Temple had been entangled with pythons and turned black... I don't know how my father escaped.
At that time, in the wind and sand all over the sky, the team of seven of them rushed out and ran to the edge of the plain that had become a desert a day ago. They didn't dare to turn back, because the wind of shouting followed them and was within reach.
When they escaped from the wind and sand, they looked back at their former home, and there was only a piece of yellow sand left.
The tall and towering city, the magnificent temple, and the waterfall and green mountains they call "Western Cactus" have all disappeared.
The eyes are full of wind and sand. Just like the storm set off by the giant monster just now.
......
"Then you stayed in Yanlong Jingshi under their care until you received a letter from your father?" Su Yong gently patted Tianma and asked softly.
The masked woman nodded.
"Who sent the letter to you? How did he find you?"
"A native of the Western Regions living on the edge of today's sand sea. He said that someone put the letter on his window sill with an address of Yanlong Jingshi. There is an ingot of gold on the letter. The masked girl said, "I have questioned the messenger, and he really doesn't know. There was also a note on the envelope saying that if it was not delivered within ten days, his family would suffer. He just came in a hurry."
Su Yong nodded and glanced at her gauze: "Have you been injured when you were young?"
The masked woman was stunned, and there was a fog in her eyes again. After a long time, he rustled and said, "When I was escaping from the desert, I was hit in the face by a snake spewing by a python... General Su, please don't care that I don't show my face."
Su Yong nodded silently.
If the father of the doomsday princess is still alive and quietly takes care of his daughter's life, why does he send someone to deliver letters instead of father and daughter?
His rough hand kept slowly combing the snow-white mane of Tianma, but his mind was in a mess.
Towards dusk, the giant city in the sky was very close, but it began to slowly blur and twist.
Under their anxious running, they finally rushed to the vague glory before the sun went down.
But there is nothing here except the piles covered with countless poplar wood and a very wide circle of snowflake rock ruins that used to be the cornerstone.
The masked woman knelt in the middle of the snowflake rock and sobbed. The devil crazily inserted the yellow sand with the notch knife, trying to find a clue.
Su Yong stared around and looked at the undulating sand dunes around him over and over again, looking very carefully.
The sound of the wind swept over the rounded edges and corners of the snowflake rocks, with a cry. The masked girl bowed to the ground, and her long hair bloomed like a black flower.
Su Yong was about to approach and pull her up, and Modu waved his hand in a hurry.
He understood it in an instant. This may be a prayer ceremony for the subjects in the Golden City?
However, the sun finally slowly sank. On the earth and in the sand sea, the heat gradually receded, and the mysterious and mysterious light enveloped around again.
The girl crawled on the ground for a long time until most of her hair had been buried by the wind and sand, and her delicate body began to tremble slightly. It was obvious that she suddenly raised her head until the last moment.
Her veil uncovered skin has turned red, and a pair of flexible eyes have shown a trace of madness.
Lou Lan, a masked woman, shouted excitedly, "I heard it. The imperial city is here, and the father is nearby.
As soon as she shouted, there seemed to be a scream in the sand dunes in the distance.
"Woo..."
Maybe that's just the wind.
Su Yong was still listening carefully. The devil had already jumped out and rushed to a bright and dark sand dune ten feet away.
However, only in an instant, the figure of the magic city flew away and rushed back at a more terrible speed.
His face also turned white, and he shouted tremblingly, "Come on...go quickly."
Just as Su Yong drew the bleeding knife to help the frightened masked woman, he had seen countless sand lizards crawling out from behind the sand dunes.
These huge murders are very similar to big crocodiles, with sharp teeth that can bite stones, and a pair of black eyes the size of a bowl mouth with a fierce meaning. The thick thick skin is also hard to hurt.
But when they rode on camels, countless large and small sand lizards have sprung out of the bright and dark sand dunes on all sides. These sand lizards, like ants, soon formed a large encirclement around them.
They have no way to go at all.
Looking at the cold teeth in countless huge mouths lying on the ground, Su Yong's hands holding the blood knife were full of sweat.
Tens of thousands of sand lizards came slowly, and they only retreated step by step.
A huge sand lizard jumped up first, and the phantom of Su Yong's blood knife flashed and swept its back fiercely.
The sand lizard fell to the ground and did not die. The thick skin on its back just cracked a long mouth and turned out some flesh and blood.
This sand lizard has such a tough and thick skin, which is even more beaten than those black monsters before. Su Yong was shocked.
At this time, dozens of sand lizards rushed in front of them.
Su Yong's eyes flashed, and the yellow sand surged up in front of him, but he couldn't stop these menatical giant lizards.
However, the mount they sat on had stepped back a few steps in a row and dodged the giant lizard.
With this retreat, they have retreated into the circle of the snowflake rock just now. Seeing the giant lizards on all sides gathering more and more, no matter how brave Su Yong was, his face began to sweat coldly.
It is a little difficult to kill these sand lizards with a blood knife, let alone those sand grains manipulated? That can only make them itchy. There are tens of millions of giant lizards outside. Even if the pegasus jumps farther, it is impossible to cross this distance.
However, just as they had retreated to the middle of the snowflake rock, the giant lizards stopped together.
Modu stared at it and showed a trace of surprise: "They don't seem to dare to enter the cornerstone of this circle."
Su Yongyou looked around and saw that those giant lizards were outside the circle of poplar wood and snowflake rock, and none of them crawled in.
What's going on? Su Yong couldn't figure it out, but there was no joy on his face.
Even if they can't come in, they can't go out. Sooner or later, they will starve to death here.
"They can't come in..." The masked girl muttered and suddenly shouted happily, "Is this the golden altar?"
What is the golden altar? Before Su Yong could ask, he watched the woman jump off the camel and keep looking for something in the yellow sand in the middle.
The devil also jumped down and kept digging the sand under his feet with a knife.
"General Su, go and see if there are any marks on the snowy rocks on the edge?"
Su Yong jumped off the Tianma, and his eyes were shining. The yellow sand under several pieces of snowflake rocks kept turning out, and there seemed to be something engraved on the exposed rock surface.
As soon as he pointed his finger on one of the strange symbols and wanted to ask the masked girl behind him, he heard a rumbling sound, and the sky and the ground suddenly turned around.
After the violent shock, everything around him became dark. Su Yong didn't know what hit his head and it hurt, but it made him more sober.
"Where are you?" He shouted in the dark, and after a moment, the echo came back in waves.
