Chapter 1 The sea of ??vicissitudes and the lonely smoke in the desert
Chapter 1: A lonely smoke in the vast desert
After arriving outside the territory, the name of the Loulan Saint Clan was like thunder to Xu Jiangzi. But after actually arriving in Loulan, all kinds of novel technologies and artifacts were well-deserved, which opened Xu Jiangzi's horizons. However, as long as he leaves the Loulan Clan, he should
It is impossible to see these super-era buildings and magic weapons, it should be like this...
"W-what are these things? Where is this place?"
Along the way, Xu Jiangzi kept imagining and guessing the true identity of the White Tiger Secret Cave. This is a legendary place that has long been buried in the yellow sand. Logically speaking, it should be deserted and deviate from the main travel routes outside the territory. Otherwise, travelers coming and going would have discovered this place long ago.
place, however, this
It is such an important place. It is absolutely impossible to say that there is no one to guard it. No matter how ridiculous the Loulan clan is, they will never leave this vital place to the empty city. There may be one or two guards left anyway.
There is also an entire army's organization and large and small hidden sentries.
However, no matter how hard he imagined it, Xu Jiangzi never expected that the final destination would actually be this Dexing. A khaki-colored bunker, it looked unremarkable from the outside, at least if you looked at it from a distance of dozens of miles away.
, I just think that this is a loess cave, and I can’t see any buildings here, although... this cave looks really big.
It is located on the top of the rock, about 500 meters long from front to back, covering an extremely large area. The khaki-colored shell is not eye-catching under the sun, but there are many metal iron birds surrounding it, flapping their wings and hanging from their claws.
Barrels went in and out of the thousands of windows on the wall of the bunker. This strange sight was very similar to Loulan.
Similarly, Xu Jiangzi still remembered that when he was first escorted to Loulan, he saw many aircraft in the sky of Loulan, flying around busily, making it a wonderful sight. Later, when he asked Shanladuo, she said that Loulan used a lot of machinery.
Most of those small aircraft are used as couriers and takeaways, and are not high-end equipment.
There are over a thousand windows. In addition to metal birds constantly flying in and out, you can see high-heat steam overflowing frequently, and sometimes even directly spitting out flames. Judging from this situation, it is probably some kind of large stove or furnace inside.
Could it be that the previous guess was wrong? The Loulan clan did not want to send people to find treasures, but simply sent people here to do work?
Xu Jiangzi thought to himself that he might have fallen into the Sun King's trick. With his personality, he would probably laugh and say something like, "You think you are very important, but in fact you are nothing. No."
"It's worth using, I don't need you at all, just go and do the hard work" to punish yourself. If this is really the case, you will be really embarrassed this time.
Just as I was thinking this, a streak of sand quickly approached from afar, and the billowing yellow sand floated in the air. It was coming so fast. Just looking at the speed, I knew it must be Loulan's transportation vehicle. It was definitely beyond the reach of any flesh and blood body, and it couldn't pass.
After a while, a strange vehicle without wheels, completely floating in the air, slowly slowed down and stopped in front of everyone.
This weird car has a silver-gray outer shell, and you can't see the scene inside. Not only does it drive very fast, but it also doesn't have to suffer from the wind and sun. The treatment it received along the way is very different from everyone else. However, since even the jailer
If you don't enjoy such benefits, then of course only big shots will sit in this car.
When the door opened, first came down a uniform wearing gray 'color', as if it was something an official, and afterwards, I said loudly what to change to a new job place.
When working here, the chance of injury is relatively high. For the safety of all people, the medical staff are accompanied by the medical staff. You must applaud and welcome.
This kind of thing may not have happened in the past. Xujiangzi stayed in the mine for a few months. Half of the medical staff had never seen it. Whoever was sick and injured had to be blessed, so the prisoners heard the news and seemed very sleepy.
'Confusion', accident, apparently applauded, while discussing.
"Hello everyone ~"
A crisp voice sounded, followed by a high shadow of Qian Ying and got out of the car. The medical staff sent to this was actually a famous girl 'sex'.
, But this sound is into the ear, it is extremely familiar.
"Uh ... no? Women appear here are dangerous, do she know?"
Xu Jiangzi murmured to speak, and the medical staff had appeared in front of everyone, like a high willow, gorgeous face, big eyes, like waves of blond hair, especially shining under the sun, a simple and generous one, a simple and generous one, a simple and generous one.
The white 'color' suit shows a hot curve, the pink legs are slender, and there are still two buttons on the chest.
Doubt whether he can recognize this beauty as soon as possible.
It stands to reason that the current situation is a bit bad, because suddenly such a hot beauty is thrown in front of many men who have not tasted meat for a long time.
Do you do something to protect this crazy woman who is unknown.
The results prove that Xujiangzi is completely considered. Shanra Dot is mad enough, but it is by no means a silly woman.
With a very female 'sex' smile and sound, when asked if anyone was willing to help move my luggage, because the movement of the hand was very large, the curve on the chest was shaking, and Xu Jiangzi stood in place, and suddenly felt the nose at the nose.
Heat, reach out a 'touch', the finger is full of red red, and the nasal blood flows out.
To this extent, the practice of the monk has nothing to say, except for shameful words. Xu Jiangzi scolded himself and heard a large footsteps beside him. The first thought was that these men couldn't bear it all.
Polying up, I was shocked to run forward with almost instinctual response, and wanted to protect the beauty who did not know life and lived, how could I think of two steps, and Xu Jiangzi was shocked. Only he ran forward.
It shakes his hands vigorously and steps back quickly.
"ah?"
If you want to be surprised, it must be false. It is inexplicably becoming the only volunteer Xu Jiangzi. He hurriedly stopped the trend, but he rushed too anxiously.
Grab the hemisphere, finally, Shanra Duo took the lead, grabbed his collar, and pressed hard on the ground.
"Oh, ah, the brother's greeting method, although the enthusiasm is a bit enthusiastic, but it is not difficult to accept, please ask him to help this."
Xujiangzi fell quite heavy, and it felt quite embarrassed, but the first thing he crawled up was not trying to save the face, but first turned to return to the team to find the powerful assistant Yu Wen Guihe, and hurriedly questioned.
"... Is there anything I should know but don't know?"
"Yes, this woman also went to the mine a few months ago to conduct medical activities. She looks beautiful. Many people have a" color 'heart ".
Those who want to play with the rape by force with force, all violent in the middle of the night, died of non -life, the corpse is not complete ... She is a well -known dangerous person. If possible, pray that she will never look at you, and you will be tens of millions.
Don't look at her. "
"... I will warn me early next time, please warn me earlier."
"No problem, how long will it take?"
"... A few years earlier."
"ah?"
Yuwen Turtle Crane, who was stunned, patted his shoulders and walked towards Shanra Duo. In the reason, there was a bunch of things to ask Shanra Duo.
It will just come to sightseeing.
The ordinary and plain bunker is completely mechanized inside, and I haven't even seen a few people. Almost all of them are mechanized facilities. The door of the corridor at the end of the corridor, there is a palm -shaped touch box next to the corridor.
Just open the trend; stand in the middle of the aisle, without having to raise your legs, there will be a conveyor belt to send people away ... All kinds of unbelievable organs, Xu Jiangzi feels dazzling 'chaos', and feels like he is entering the heavenly world in the book.
Then, then
"Dr., don't be so old, look at these things, look dumbfounded. How can I take you out in the future?"
Shanra Duo took Xujiangzi into a suite, not spacious, but the tables and chairs and beds inside were all available, but it was clean and refreshing, but the bright metal wall on all sides made Xu Jiangzi feel that this suit was quite similar to his own cell.
It ’s really the same.
"What are you doing here?"
"How do I know? Suddenly I came here, can I not come here? I see you seeing you here that you are strange. What do you come here?"
"Uh ..." The problem was blocked, but Xu Jiangzi didn't know what to say. Shanra Duo made it clear that he didn't know, but he was just ordered to act.
Far, as a leader, it is impossible to run out secretly, and follow this remote place?
"Ask you, here are weird, what is it?"
"Don't you know? This is Loulan's arms factory and arsenal. It has been in history for a long time and has been abandoned for many years. Later, in order to supply weapons to the Taiping Army, it will be opened again and running again."
"What? Isn't this a military fire factory here?"
"You have to understand this way."
Shanra Duo was stalling with both hands, and it was easy to say. Xu Jiangzi was very surprised. I couldn't figure out why the King of the Sun let him send himself here.
Isn't the battle in the soil ...
This idea flashed in my mind, and Xu Jiangzi moved in his heart, and the policemen suddenly felt like anyone was peeping at himself, but in this small room, only himself and Shanra Duo, how can I see how can I see it?
Less than a third person.
At first reaction, Xu Jiangzi immediately opened the door and went out to see what was going on, but there was nothing outside the door, and there was no trace of anyone on the long walkway. There was no one hiding there.
"It's strange..."
After returning to the room, she explained the situation to Shanladuo. Shanladuo was also very surprised. After searching the room carefully and confirming that there was no surveillance equipment, she could only judge Xu Jiangzi's feeling as an illusion.
.
"By the way, are you... very familiar with the Sun King?"
"Damn it, why are you so crazy? How can I be familiar with him? He is the King of Loulan. At most, like others, I have only seen him from a distance. It is not as far away as the time you killed me in front of him.
Very close."
Zanladuo answered without thinking, as if he was lying. Xu Jiangzi's question was blocked again before it even started. He could only say goodbye and leave, thinking about other possibilities. Before leaving, Zanladuo threw
He has a pack of pills, which he says are a panacea for colds, coughs, headaches and stomachaches. He is a newly developed product and should carry a pack with him in case of unexpected events.
"...Is there anything going on here?"
"Life is full of surprises. If you are unlucky, even getting a cold vaccine will kill you."
"That's true..."
After Xu Jiangzi received the big gift package from Shanladuo, Shanladuo did not forget to remind you, "Let me tell you, now you are my property. You are not allowed to mess around with women outside. When you see a beautiful girl, you are not allowed to hit her.
idea."
"...You are a big bisexual thief. Don't you think it's unconvincing to say this?"
"So, if you see a beautiful girl, you have to come back and tell me first, and then it's your turn to eat after I finish eating."
"Then wouldn't we become big male and female thieves?"
"This is a good and creative idea. Remember to hold high the banner of the Heluo Sword Sect when the time comes. It will definitely become very popular."
Seeing the woman's eagerness to try, Xu Jiangzi couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. After returning to his companions, Xu Jiangzi sighed even louder. The dormitory in this arsenal was extremely bad, and it felt even worse than the prison. However,
, eighteen people crowded
In a room, at least I don’t have to worry about crazy people coming to harass me in the middle of the night. Thinking about it carefully, I haven’t had a good sleep at all during this period. I have been studying and getting beaten every night, and I haven’t been disturbed.
Nervous breakdown, even I have to admire myself.
"Everyone, I brought back some medicinal herbs. It can cure all colds, coughs, headaches and stomachaches. It can also be taken as a holy food for health. You..."
Before he finished speaking, Xu Jiangzi saw all his comrades hiding away, with expressions of fear like snakes and scorpions, as if what he held in his hand was not a panacea, but a super poisonous poison. In fact, Xu Jiangzi did not
I know very well whether this 'medicine' is safe or not. Looking at everyone's reaction, I can only smile bitterly.
The working life that started the next day was no different from working as a miner before. It was just that another production line was opened in the arsenal, and the prisoners manually operated it to carry out more delicate work. The work itself was nothing, but it was different from simple mining.
In comparison, this work is particularly exciting.
These prisoners are not ordinary prisoners. Some have special powers and can influence electronic devices with their will; some are proficient in mechanical principles and even have the qualifications of magic weapon developers. The purpose is to completely isolate them from machinery, and they are specially blocked.
That super-primitive prison had no machinery or electronic equipment in it. Now, people were transferred to this arsenal, which was almost entirely mechanical. It was like a huge treasure house. If it wasn't so weird, they might have started right away.
The rebellion started.
"Don't act rashly. I suspect that we are under high surveillance by the Loulan clan. Their specific purpose is unknown. Please be patient for a while." Xu Jiangzi said: "At least, first familiarize yourself with the nearby geographical environment. You will be able to do whatever you want.
It’s easier.”
Xu Jiangzi did not say these words casually. In terms of the personality of a leader, he is the type who pays more attention to making decisions before taking action. Even if he is not fully prepared, he must at least be quite prepared before he will pay any attention.
All actions, if he were to act rashly when he first arrived, he would never be able to do such a thing.
If it were Ximen Zhuyu, he might now encourage everyone to take action, observe while taking action, design the next plan, and even look for feasible strategies by observing the failure and death of his companions. Of course, this kind of sacrificing companions to find safety
Regarding the route, Xu Jiangzi would never be able to do it.
However, Xu Jiangzi soon discovered that his judgment was not wrong, because after a few days of work, he found that the bunker gave him a strange feeling. At first, he thought it was his illusion, because the comrades around him
There was no such feeling of abnormality, everyone said it was nothing special, but when he fell asleep at night and the white tiger kept roaring in his dream, he realized that it was by no means an illusion, but a call from the depths of his blood.
Time shifts, vicissitudes of life, desert canyons can turn into fortresses, but the fighting spirit of the White Tiger hidden deep in the blood will never disappear. Even after decades or hundreds of years, when the tribe sets foot on their homeland again, the blood will throb.
Then you will wake up. Even if you are thousands of miles away, the feeling is very strong, let alone stepping directly on the ruins of your homeland.
"That's right, this is the former home of the White Tiger clan, but..."
Xu Jiangzi was 100% certain that the formerly mysterious White Tiger Canyon was the land he was now stepping on. However, looking at this place horizontally and vertically, there was no trace of the White Tiger clan living there. It was not even a canyon.
The bunker is built on a rock hill, but the nearby terrain has not yet formed a valley, which is far different from the legendary White Tiger Canyon.
After discussing with his comrades, they couldn't explain the reason, and they didn't find anything wrong with the arsenal. Xu Jiangzi thought alone and deduced various clues, and finally came up with the answer.
I once heard that in ancient times, two tribes fought. The winner not only killed all the losers, but also sprinkled salt on the old land where they lived, leaving the place barren and lifeless. The Loulan clan may be very afraid of the White Tiger clan.
existence, so in the white of destruction
After the Tiger Clan, even the place where they lived was destroyed, the canyon was destroyed, and bunkers were built on top. Although this kind of thing sounds exaggerated, the Loulan Clan is a very exaggerated tribe. With their amazing technological power, it is nothing
Can't do it.
"They did it very thoroughly. They killed all the people and demolished all the nests. But since the nests are gone, what treasures and inheritances are left?"
Xu Jiangzi was confused about this question, but he soon found the answer. The legacy of the White Tiger clan is definitely well hidden here. Even if the Loulan clan's information may be wrong, his blood induction will never be wrong.
, something that can give me such a strong feeling must be unusual. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be funny if I worked so hard to dig out my inheritance and finally found a half-worn shoe?
"However, it's really unsettling not to know what the inheritance is. If it's just gold, silver and jewelry, that would be fine..."
Xu Jiangzi is very worried about one thing, that is, the White Tiger clan is famous for its viciousness. If there is anything fatal left behind that will endanger the world, once it is seen again, it will be a catastrophe. However, Shanladuo does not agree with his idea.
When the White Tiger legacy was discussed in prison, she showed a high degree of interest.
"Don't be so pedantic. Weapons themselves are not sinful. It depends on who uses them. For example, if they are given to us, they can hoe the strong and help the weak, defeat the Taiping Army and create peace."
"...Frankly speaking, I'm just afraid that if the weapon falls into the hands of someone like you, the consequences might be worse than that of the sky demon."
This discussion ended in a falling out and fighting, but Xu Jiangzi was aware of the danger and decided that if he got any clues, he should pretend not to know anything and not get in touch with the inheritance too quickly.
Helplessly, there were too many things that Xu Jiangzi could not decide. On the third day after they arrived at the bunker, Xu Jiangzi was carrying a bucket to fetch water. When he passed a certain rock wall, the ground suddenly shook violently, and a sound came from inside the rock wall.
There was a loud noise, and a big gap opened up. It was dark inside, as if it led to a large space.
With such a strong shaking and such a large rock crevice, even if Xu Jiangzi wanted to conceal it, he couldn't. He was quickly discovered by people who came after hearing the sound.
"Here, how come a hole suddenly opened here? It's incredible! It's fine when others walk by, but a big hole opens when you walk by. Isn't it a coincidence?"
The prisoners exclaimed repeatedly, and soon they figured out the answer from Xu Jiangzi's special identity.
"Could it be that...this is the old place of the White Tiger clan? But how did it become like this? Does Loulan want to use us to hunt for treasure?"
Listening to the surprised cries of his companions, Xu Jiangzi not only sighed for their hindsight, but also lamented his own misfortune and the lack of blessings from his ancestors. It is not impossible to use blood to feel the key to inherit the inheritance, but at least it is not impossible.
Also choose a better time and place. Now that I can’t even hide it and have one more vote to share the inheritance, what should I do?
However, things still look a bit weird. If the White Tiger's legacy is hidden behind this rock wall and can be found by walking in through this big crack, then for rough guys like us, it is very difficult to discover the White Tiger's legacy.
It is indeed difficult. If this crack had not been shaken out, God knows how long it would have taken to find the clues. However, with the technological power of the Loulan clan, which has occupied this place for many years, they should have conducted a carpet search everywhere. There is no reason why this area was not found.
There is a large cavity behind the rock wall.
The Loulan clan aspires to the White Tiger legacy. This rock wall should have been broken down long ago for detailed exploration. How come it was not discovered until today? The reason for this can only be carefully examined.
"Bring me the lighting equipment, or any lamp, and I'll go in and take a look first."
Xu Jiangzi didn't want to act too quickly, but he only had influence over these comrades and had no absolute binding force. If he didn't go in to explore first, the job would only be taken away by them, and it would be even more difficult to deal with something when the time came.
Everyone always competes for the opportunity to hunt for treasure, but this time no one wants to compete with Xu Jiangzi, because if this is really the hometown of the White Tiger, the only person who can touch the hidden mechanism is Xu Jiangzi, and he must be the only one.
Although this arsenal is almost completely mechanized, there are still more than a dozen Loulan technicians and guards left behind. With the commotion here, they should be here soon. Xu Jiangzi acted before them.
He took Yuwen Guihe and several comrades into the dark deep cave.
"The range that the lights can illuminate is limited, so please be careful where you step."
Xu Jiangzi warned everyone that any lighting equipment sounds nice, but in fact it is just a few oil lamps, which can only illuminate a few steps. It is dangerous to climb up and down between large rocks. Fortunately, a few
He is not bad at personal skills. He usually works in mines and has already developed the ability to see in the dark, so he is not troubled by this dangerous environment.
In the darkness, I couldn't tell anything. The deeper the surrounding rocky terrain became, the more empty it became. I didn't know how much space there was underneath. I held up an oil lamp and shined it. Except for a few feet in radius, the rest was boundless darkness. I couldn't even see my fingers, even if there was darkness.
Even though he has limited ability to see, he can't see very far, let alone which way to go.
Yuwen Guihe said: "Boss, what should we do?"
"Let's go back first. We don't know which way to go. It would be bad if we can't go back." Xu Jiangzi looked at the expectant looks of his companions and said, "This place is quite evil. I don't believe that Loulan doesn't."
Knowing the existence of this place, we should have enough exploration time to prepare torches and ropes before going deeper."
With that said, Xu Jiangzi led his companions back. Although he could only see clearly within a few feet, Xu Jiangzi had a strange feeling, as if he knew what existed in the north, north and west direction. If he looked there, he should be able to find something.
What was discovered...should be like this, but it is not suitable for discovery with so many people.
Based on this idea, Xu Jiangzi walked back with his companions, but when crossing the rock wall, Xu Jiangzi once again felt the line of sight from a few days ago, a pair of eyes staring at him.
"who?"
Having the same feeling twice in a row, Xu Jiangzi was convinced that this was not an illusion, and it might even be that the other party deliberately let him discover it, but...who are these eyes hidden in the darkness?
The first thing Xu Jiangzi thought of was the Sun King. After all, he was the most likely person to be sneaking around here. However, this conjecture was not certain because even though the time was short, the feeling those eyes gave him was not the same.
Not the Sun King.
When a few people left the cave, Loulan's security personnel had already arrived. They were shocked when they found this vast dark cave. Their horrified expressions did not seem to be fake. Xu Jiangzi was convinced that they really didn't know, and they also dismissed everyone and pulled them up.
Blockade the line to prevent everyone from approaching, report this matter to Loulan, and wait for the verdict.
That night, a fierce quarrel broke out among several prisoner leaders in the meeting, and they almost turned against each other. The reason for the quarrel was over the White Tiger inheritance. The possibilities contained in this great secret treasure made many people lose control of their patience and felt that
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as we can obtain the secret treasure first, we will have enough strength to fight for freedom and end our current life as a prisoner. If we wait for Loulan to send someone to take over this place, it will be too late.
Such voices were raised, but they also encountered resistance. The opposition, led by Yuwen Guihe, believed that the whole thing was weird. Ever since the Loulan clan transferred their own people here, the whole thing was extremely unusual.
The Loulan clan should have some plans to use their side to do things. We should be under extremely strict supervision, and any rash actions are inappropriate.
The two factions were in a stalemate, and in the end Yuwen Guihe's faction prevailed. After all, the whole situation was so abnormal that even people who were usually comfortable with self-deception would find it difficult to continue deceiving them, so they decided to proceed with caution.
Xu Jiangzi did not participate in the entire discussion process, because he knew that he was the key to the entire plan. Without his participation, no matter which faction was involved, there would be no chance of success. The discussion would be in vain, and what he should do most is to
On the other side of the break in the rock wall, find a dark corner to hide and see who will take the opportunity to sneak in.
Having sensed two strange sights in a row, someone must be peeping in secret. Before officially looking for something, it is best to find this person first and eliminate the risk factors. This is the best policy. Just thinking about these questions, suddenly in the dark corridor
A white shadow appeared, quickly approaching the crack in the rock wall.
"Sure enough, it's here!"
When the target appeared, Xu Jiangzi was like a dormant tiger, bursting out from the darkness and rushing towards the target directly in front. After taking a few steps, he stopped in shock.
"...Why is it you? What kind of chaos are you here to cause!"
