The next morning, everyone got up early and prepared to set off.
Since entering the desert, Li Daoxuan has always woken up after everyone else got up, but today he got up early for the first time.
Because he has sensed that the breath of the curse is getting stronger and stronger, it seems that the ancient city of Jingjue is really close.
Everyone rode on camels and set off towards the ancient city of Jingjue recorded in the notes.
At noon, Ye Yixin obviously felt unwell and seemed to have a fever. Chu Jian saw that he looked haggard and his lips were pale, and looked at him with great concern.
Chu Jian asked repeatedly:
"Xiao Ye, Xiao Ye, are you okay?"
Ye Yixin replied weakly:
"It's okay, I just feel a little weak. I guess I didn't get enough rest. I'll be fine in a while."
Chu Jian looked at Ye Yixin and continued:
"If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me."
Ye Yixin shook her head and said slowly:
"It's really okay. I'll be fine after a rest. Don't tell Professor Chen and others. I don't want everyone to worry about me."
Chu Jian nodded. He understood Ye Yixin's thoughts. They were almost at Jingjue Ancient City. He couldn't affect everyone's journey because of his illness.
"Okay, I can keep it secret now. If you are seriously ill, I can't hide it."
Li Daoxuan heard the conversation between the two. Considering that the team had been traveling for a while, he decided to let everyone rest.
He told Lao Hu, who was leading the team in front, through voice transmission:
"Lao Hu, let the old man Anliman stop first and let everyone rest first."
After receiving Li Daoxuan's voice transmission, Lao Hu immediately drove the camel to Anliman's side and said to Anliman:
"Anliman, let everyone stop and rest!"
Anliman also nodded and asked everyone to rest on the spot. He also checked the direction by the way.
Anliman got off the camel and looked around. A sense of strangeness arose spontaneously.
Shirley Yang walked to his side and watched him silently, hoping that he could find the direction to move forward.
However, this time Anliman shook his head slowly and said firmly:
"The traces of the Zidu Dark River have disappeared. I can't see it clearly anymore."
"If you go further, you will definitely not see the traces. By that time, I really can't help you."
Hearing this, the blood on Shirley Yang's face faded and she stood there. But she still took a deep breath to encourage herself.
"We are not far from the ancient city of Jingjue. Even if there is no trace of the Zidu underground river, we still have a compass in our hands and a route map in our notebook. We should be able to find it."
Her voice was firm and calm.
"No matter what, I have to move forward. There must be underground rivers or water in such a large ruins of Jingjue. Even if the ground has dried up, the underground water veins may not dry up. There must be clues."
Anliman spread his hands and looked at the anxious Shirley Yang and said:
"Girl, don't worry."
"I mean, we have been walking for most of the day, we should be able to see the sacred mountain of Zaglama."
Anliman looked at Shirley Yang's disappointed face, sighed and continued:
"Why don't we walk a little further, maybe we can see the sacred mountain."
Shirley Yang nodded and went to her camel.
Seeing Shirley Yang so anxious, Li Daoxuan shouted in Shirley Yang's direction:
"Shirley, we have walked too fast today, let's take a break."
Shirley Yang looked at Professor Chen and Ye Yixin who were already exhausted lying on the camel, and sighed. Professor Chen and the others had indeed exhausted their physical strength and were indeed not suitable to move forward.
Shirley Yang looked at Li Daoxuan and nodded, agreeing with Li Daoxuan's opinion.
Everyone started to build a simple awning on the sand. After it was built, they sat under the awning and began to recover their physical strength.
Li Daoxuan looked at the weak Professor Chen and said:
"Professor Chen, how are you? Do you feel better?"
Professor Chen nodded slightly, his eyes fell on Li Daoxuan, who was not affected by the wind and sand at all.
"Okay, I'm fine."
Old Hu came over, sat next to Li Daoxuan, looked at Professor Chen and said:
"The sun is too strong now, let's rest for a while."
"Professor Chen, drink more water, and let's go after you have rested."
Professor Chen shook his head, looked at Li Daoxuan and Old Hu stubbornly and said:
"Oh, don't worry about me, I can hold on, I'll go when I need to."
Old Hu looked at Professor Chen's breathless appearance, shook his head, and did not agree to Professor Chen's request.
The deeper they went into the desert, the hotter the sun became, and the higher the temperature became. If they didn't have enough physical strength, I'm afraid these people wouldn't be able to hold on.How long.
After resting for an hour, the group packed their luggage, rode their camels, and continued to move forward towards the ancient city of Jingjue.
Now there was no trace of the Zidu Dark River, and Anliman could only rely on the route map drawn in Shirley Yang's notebook to continue moving forward.
After riding the camel for a while, there was no trace of Haloxylon ammodendron in front of them. At a glance, there was yellow sand one after another, and there was no end in sight.
Anliman stopped the camel and kept looking at the endless yellow sand, but he could not see any hope.
Shirley Yang took out the compass from her backpack, but found that it had malfunctioned and the pointer kept spinning.
Lao Hu looked at his watch and found that it had also stopped timing.
Shirley Yang drove the camel towards Li Daoxuan, and when she got to his side, she said anxiously:
"Old Li, we are lost, and the compass and watch are out of order. What should we do next?"
Li Daoxuan looked at Shirley Yang calmly, and then turned his head to look at the curse that was constantly escaping in the distance. It seemed that they were really close.
"Shirley, have you forgotten that your notes say that the Zaglama Sacred Mountain is a magnetic mountain, and it is normal that the compass and watch cannot be used."
"It's really not far now, let's keep going!"
After hearing Li Daoxuan's reminder, Shirley Yang immediately took out the notes from her backpack and turned out the one about the Jingjue Ancient City.
Professor Chen and others watched Li Daoxuan and Shirley Yang talking, and they all gathered here.
Shirley Yang watched everyone come over, got off the camel, and then looked at everyone and said:
"Everyone, we are really not far from the ancient city of Jingjue."
"This note says that in the depths of the desert, the trace of the Zidu Dark River has been lost."
"In this sea of death where no grass grows, two huge black magnetic mountains stand facing each other in the afterglow of the setting sun."
"Like two ancient warriors in black armor, silently guarding the ancient secrets."
"Through the valley that looks like a gate, a legendary city appears before our eyes."
