Chapter 421 - No Matter Where You Go, I Must Accompany You

At this moment, Sun Tianhao came over to Chu Luo and the others.

“Chu Luo, who was that person just now?”

“Qin Ming.”

“Oh, Li Yan’s number one bodyguard.”

“Yes.”

“When did this person come to the desert?”

“About the same time as the archeological team.”

Sun Tianhao was shocked. After a while, he clicked his tongue and said, “This person can actually survive in such a desolate desert without a drop of water for so many days. He’s too amazing.”

Chu Luo felt that it was normal for Qin Ming to be able to survive for so long, so she only glanced at him and didn’t say anything.

Soon, Qin Ming cleaned up and walked out.

Chu Luo asked, “Did you catch that Gu Master previously?”

“I did,” Qin Ming said. “I was going to bring him back, but there was a quicksand activity. In the end, I didn’t know where that Gu Master was swept away to by the quicksand.”

When Sun Tianhao heard this, he asked worriedly, “What if that Gu Master was buried by the quicksand and died long ago?”

Sun Tianhao’s words silenced the three of them.

After a while, Chu Luo said, “If that person really dies, I can only go to the tomb to find the antidote.”

“Didn’t they say that only people who planted the Gu can cure it?”

“Who said that? The person who planted the Gu worm used a worm in the tomb as a Gu worm. The antidote to the Gu worm can definitely be found in the tomb.”

Although Sun Tianhao found it a little incredible, he still gave Chu Luo a thumbs up in admiration. Then, he sighed. “Chu Luo, I really wonder if there’s anything you don’t know.”

Chu Luo definitely wouldn’t tell him. What else couldn’t she do?

After this topic ended, Qin Ming talked about the situation.

“At that time, almost everyone entered the quicksand one after the other. It shouldn’t have attracted such a large amount of quicksand activity. Those foreigners brought mages over, and the others brought experts over. When they walked into the quicksand region, many people started fighting after some disagreement.”

A large part of the reason why those people attacked was because of Qin Ming’s manipulation.

“I didn’t expect the magic and the energy fluctuations of those people to directly attract powerful quicksand activity. At that time, when the quicksand moved, the sky was filled with yellow sand. Everyone’s camels ran away, and they were quickly swept into the yellow sand.”

Everyone could imagine how dangerous the scene must have been. After a moment of silence, Li Yan said, “Then prepare to go to the tomb.”

These words made Sun Tianhao glance at him.

After the tent was set up, the sky was almost dark.

The wind tonight was a little lighter than last night, and they could see the stars.

After the meal, Li Yan and Qin Ming stood outside and chatted for a while before he let Qin Ming go rest.

Li Yan walked back to the tent and asked Chu Luo, “Luoluo, do you want to take a stroll?”

Chu Luo felt that it was indeed a little early to sleep at this time, so she left the tent and walked forward with him.

Unexpectedly, Lu Feng and Wang Ming were observing the sky not far away.

Chu Luo also glanced at it and said, “The weather tomorrow is good. I think we can reach the Loulan Ancient Kingdom by morning the day after tomorrow.”

When Lu Feng heard this, he added, “Mrs. Li is right. Nothing will happen on the way. With everyone’s speed, we can indeed reach there the day after tomorrow morning.”

At this point, he asked, “Should we go to the desert oasis to replenish some water?”

Chu Luo still had plenty of water here, but there were many people and they used up quite a lot of water.

Li Yan: “Let’s replenish some water first.”

After saying that, the two of them continued walking.

Watching the two of them walk slowly, Wang Ming couldn’t help but sigh. “What a good-looking couple.”

Lu Feng nodded in agreement.

Chu Luo and Li Yan stopped not long after. It was very cold at night, so Li Yan covered Chu Luo in his coat and only let her head peek out.

The two of them looked at the stars in the sky. Chu Luo said, “Actually, I can deduce the life and death of those people, but it’s a little inappropriate here.”

“In that case, don’t deduce.” In Li Yan’s heart, Chu Luo was the most important. “If those people aren’t dead, they will definitely continue walking towards the tomb. We will definitely meet them then.”

Chu Luo thought so too.

Then, the two of them didn’t continue talking about this. Instead, they talked about the Loulan Ancient Kingdom.

Having specially checked on the history of that ancient country from prosperity to disappearance, Chu Luo sighed. “Such a prosperous ancient capital disappeared just like that. It’s as if it was destined by the heavens. Previously, I saw someone post a video and photo on the Internet. I didn’t believe that it was the real ruins of the ancient capital.”

“That’s just a ruin that everyone can find now. Maybe it’s just one of the villages in the Loulan Kingdom.”

Chu Luo nodded in agreement.

The two of them looked at the stars for a while.

A little tired, Chu Luo shrunk her head into Li Yan’s arms and turned around to hug his waist, leaning her head against his chest.

“Are you tired?”

“Mm.”

“Do you want me to carry you back?”

“No. There are so many people watching.”

Li Yan chuckled and wrapped his arm around her waist, carrying her back.

Chu Luo giggled in his arms.

After a night, when Chu Luo and Li Yan got up and walked out of the tent the next day, they saw Sun Tianhao standing five meters away from their tent like a wooden stake.

Chu Luo asked, “Sun Tianhao, why are you standing there?”

Sun Tianhao’s lips moved, as if he was a little embarrassed. However, in the end, he straightened his neck and told them why he was doing so. “My father asked me to ask you guys if you’ve poured away the water you washed your faces with today. If not, let everyone wash their hands with that water.”

Chu Luo was stunned for a moment. She took out a bucket of water from the Heaven-and-Earth pouch and placed it on the ground.

“Bring this bucket of water over for everyone to wash.”

When Sun Tianhao heard this, he looked at her as if she was a prodigal.

The corners of Chu Luo’s lips twitched. She put away the bucket of water and said, “Forget it if you don’t want it.”

After saying that, she turned around and washed up.

Sun Tianhao stood there and waited while preparing to glare at Li Yan.

However, Li Yan couldn’t be bothered with him. At this moment, Qin Ming came out of his sleeping tent and the two of them walked to the side to talk.

Chu Luo washed her face and brought out the water for Sun Tianhao.

Sun Tianhao looked at the clean water and said in disagreement, “Chu Luo, I told you not to waste water. Why did you bring me a basin of clear water?”

“It’s not clear water. I’ve washed my face using this.”

“You’re lying. Don’t you girls use facial milk to wash your face?”

“I don’t.”

Sun Tianhao didn’t believe her at all.

Chu Luo didn’t explain. After passing him the water, she walked towards Li Yan and Qin Ming.

The two of them were discussing the tomb.

There was a trace of hesitation in Qin Ming’s tone. “Master, are we really going to go to that tomb?”

“Mm.”

“That tomb is very dangerous. Previously, we even buried many explosives outside…”

“We have to go down that tomb.”

Not only because he wanted to look for the antidote for his Luoluo, but also because the closer he was to the tomb, the more intense he felt. It was as if he had to bring Chu Luo to the tomb.

Seeing that Li Yan was so serious, Qin Ming didn’t persuade him further.

Coincidentally, Chu Luo walked over and he walked away.

Chu Luo walked to Li Yan’s side and stood with him. “I can go down to that tomb alone.”

“No.”

Li Yan suddenly grabbed her hand and tightened it. “No matter where you go, I must accompany you.”

When she heard this, the corners of Chu Luo’s lips couldn’t help but curl up.

She nodded at him. “I won’t let anything happen to you.”

“Mm.”

After breakfast, everyone continued on their way.

Nothing happened for the next day. Everyone went to the desert oasis to replenish their water before heading to the Loulan Ancient Kingdom.

When they arrived, everyone didn’t stop and continued walking inwards.

The road ahead looked as flat as before, but it was getting harder and harder to walk. Sand filled the sky and a layer of mist appeared.

“This is a natural fog.” After Chu Luo finished speaking, she turned to ask Lu Feng and Wang Ming, “Can you distinguish the direction here?”

The two of them took out the compass on them and looked at it. At the same time, they shook their heads. “The needle is spinning randomly.”

Lu Feng said, “Previously, we only led the way to the ancient ruins of the Loulan Kingdom. Are we really going to walk in?”

“That’s not Loulan Ancient Capital.”

The two of them were shocked.

Chu Luo was in no hurry to explain anything. She took out a red thread from her body and shook it into the mist. A red light followed the red thread and shot in.

Chu Luo pointed in a direction. “Let’s go this way.”

After walking for about half a day, at five in the afternoon, a majestic and massive ancient city wall suddenly appeared in front of them. There was a moat outside the ancient city wall.

Some parts of the ancient city wall had already collapsed, but it didn’t lose its boldness.

A few people couldn’t help but whisper, “Heavens, this is too spectacular. This must be the real Loulan Ancient Capital!”

Everyone walked over.

When they reached the edge of the moat, many people gasped.

There was actually water in the moat. The river water was deathly blue, and the eerie white bones spread at the bottom of the river emitted a chilling glow under the sunlight.

Amid the white bones swam piranhas.

“This… this is too terrifying!”

The others were fine. However, Lu Feng and Wang Ming were so frightened that their legs went limp and they fell to the ground.
