Chapter 713: Dragon Robe

The ancient Loulan Kingdom once occupied the transportation hub between the Huns and the Han Dynasty. During its strongest period, even the Han emperors at that time could only adopt a policy of softening.

But it disappeared mysteriously a thousand years ago in an instant.

Since then, there has been a legend among the peoples on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert: A sandstorm like heaven's punishment buried the entire ancient city in an instant...

And what I have in my hands is something that belongs to the Loulan royal family.

I had a premonition that it was like a Pandora's box, which might have a sky-high historical artifact, but it might also contain something else.

Do I want to open it?

For a moment, I hesitated, but curiosity overcame reason, and I finally couldn't help but open it.

The three-foot-long and one-inch-wide sandalwood box is a robe.

The texture is delicate and silky, but I don’t know what material it is.

The robe is embroidered with a four-clawed golden dragon from bottom to top, and there are also gilded patterns on the cuffs and collars. Each needle and thread are exquisite and perfect.

The most important thing is that after years of baptism, this dragon robe is still quite complete, and it looks like a work of art at first glance.

Another flashlight shone over, it was the Fire Monkey, and he also saw the robe, "Tsk? Isn't this a dress that only the emperors of ancient times wear? Could it be that we are in the imperial city of Loulan?"

Imperial City? Maybe...

While I felt something, I felt that what he said made sense.

If this dragon robe was dedicated to the court, then it should be not far from the imperial city of ancient Loulan. Perhaps, we are already within the imperial city of Loulan, but we don’t know it yet.

Fire Monkey joked, "Don't you want to wear it and experience the feeling of being an emperor?"

"If you want to wear it, I don't have the time to wear it."

"Okay!"

He took the dragon robe and put it on himself, lowered his head and looked at it and laughed at it, with a bit of desolation, "Tsk, it's not a waste to be an emperor, but I should be the most mixed emperor in history..."

As he spoke, he leaned against the thick wooden pillar and sat on the muddy ground, not feeling sorry for the incalculable precious historical relics on his body.

Well, I shook my head and found a dry corner as a place to spend the night.

The moment I relaxed, I was instantly swallowed by the feeling of fatigue, and I fell asleep before I even had time to think about it.

When I woke up, the surroundings were so quiet that it was scary, dark, and I couldn't see my fingers.

When I turned on the flashlight and saw the safe and sound Fire Monkey and the others, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, we are all fine.

I came to the door lightly and looked out through the small crack in the door. It was dark and I could see nothing. There was nothing in the small area where the flashlight shone.

What about those worms?

I frowned and observed carefully for a long time without any clues. Although there were traces of worms crawling on the street outside, the traces were too messy and it was impossible to tell whether they had gone far or lurked.

I woke up the Huo Monkey. When he got up, he was confused. He even pulled up the gun and held it in his arms, and pointed it at me with a butt.

"What are you doing? It's not that easy for me to eat. I'll see if I won't give you a tick!"

He just finished speaking in a daze and woke up. His old face turned red and smiled dryly, scratching his head, "What, I'm sleeping in a daze, it's not intentional..."

"It's okay. I'm asking you to wake up and discuss with you. The worm swarm outside is gone. Should we wait a little longer or leave now?"

I asked calmly.

"Wait a little longer, otherwise it will be too dangerous."

The Huo Monkey sat down again and said with a bitter face, "The flamethrower is no longer useful, and there are not many bullets left. If we encounter those bugs again, we will all finish playing."

"But what if we don't leave?"

I pointed to Yang Hui, and when she saved Gu Huai's stomach, she had a high fever.

If she stays here, she will definitely die.

The Huo Monkey also realized the seriousness of the matter, and couldn't help but frown, slowly stood up, and raised his gun.

"No further ado, let's set out now!"

When he got up, I noticed that the dragon robe on him was clean and completely different from the appearance of contact with the mud.

The material is indeed special enough when it comes out of the mud without staining.

However, the Fire Monkey did not notice this. I thought about it and felt that no matter how strange it was, it was just a piece of clothing, so there was no need to tell him.

But at this time, I never expected that what I didn't care about would save our lives later. Of course, this is a story later.

Like yesterday, the Huo Monkey was at the forefront, and I was responsible for taking care of Yang Hui, who was suffering from high fever.

The three of us, like thieves, opened the door carefully and walked out. Although every step was light, we still made a rustling sound when we stepped on the ground. We walked for dozens of meters in a hurry before we could move faster.

The streets became wider and the surrounding buildings gradually became scarce.

But there were more things under our feet, and some arthropod corpses lay all over the ground.

Malu, also known as millipedes, mostly live in dark and humid places, and the environment in the ancient city is in line with its habits.

However, these guys are of extraordinary size, each of which is thick on my wrist, half an arm long, and countless fine feet are spreading all over my abdomen like fluff.

"It's dried by worms..."

The fire monkey kicked a Ma Lu, who was facing the sky, and saw a small hole in Ma Lu's head, the size of a baby's fist, under the eyes.

This Ma Lu's brain has been empty, and the rest are probably the same way to die.

It's the kind of brain-eating worm that is dry.

This small episode did not affect our pace of progress. Soon, we came to a square paved with granite. On the other side opposite us, I saw a lot of blurry outlines, which should be some kind of building, but it was too far apart and I couldn't see clearly.

Just as I was about to walk over, suddenly, the fire monkey grabbed my shoulder and signaled me not far ahead of us.

At this time, I withdrew my gaze and looked straight ahead.

So many... so many people!

In the square, men, women, young and old were all inseparable. From their clothes, we can see that some of them were businessmen, some were civilians, and many children of officials from wealthy families. This also made me understand why there was no one on the bustling streets.

Because they all gathered here during their lifetime!
