Professor Chen said to everyone: "It seems that this is the place where a sacrifice to the important deceased, and the people buried here are extraordinary. This is the burial custom of Gumo in ancient times. These people should be prisoners. They were tied to the desert and died of thirst. They were pulled into the tomb until they were dried up, and they were pulled into the tomb and dripped with the blood of the animals."

With Professor Chen and his group of archaeological teams, even if they have something, they can't touch them casually. Chen Hao didn't have the heart to study these things, so he stood at the entrance and smoked and planned to go up.

Everyone searched around the tomb room, but did not find the coffin, nor did they find other dark rooms, and were confused.

Xueli was meticulous. She found that one of the floors was a bit abnormal, so she called everyone over and cleaned them up and found that it was a square stone slab with two pull rings on both sides.

Everyone worked together to pull the large stone slab aside, and a tomb chamber of about the same size as above was revealed below.

There was a rusty iron ladder under the tomb. Everyone tried it and found it was still stable, so they followed the iron ladder to the tomb, where the tomb owner placed the coffin.

The tomb below is obviously much better than the one on the previous floor. It is surrounded by exquisite murals, and the coffin is about the same size as the container, which makes the archaeological team dance and excitedly, and is very excited.

The mural describes the past of Gumo and Jingjue Kingdoms. The inspection team members patiently interpreted the things described above carefully.

It turned out that Gumo Kingdom was a vassal state of Jingjue Kingdom. It was always bullied, but was unable to resist. Later, after Queen Jingjue died, all the oppressed countries united and destroyed the extremely powerful Jingjue Kingdom in one fell swoop.

According to the mural, Queen Jingjue is the most beautiful woman in the Western Regions. She has always covered her face with a green gauze. No one has ever seen her look.

Queen Jingjue used cruel and bloody means to suppress the surrounding neighbors, and wanted the surrounding countries to worship her like a true god. Anyone who dared to resist her would be skinned and executed alive.

Perhaps her actions angered the gods, and in the end, the arrogant Queen Jingjue died suddenly without any trouble for a few years, and no one knew the cause of her death.

It is said that Queen Jingjue has some strange ability. As long as the person seen by her eyes will disappear inexplicably.

The person buried in this tomb was Prince Gumo. After the Queen died, he reached the deadline and buried it in this tomb with his beloved woman.

Everyone had been studying below for several hours. In the end, Professor Chen disagreed with opening the coffin to check. He was afraid that the air would enter the coffin and the corpse of the owner of the tomb and the burial objects could not be preserved, so he asked everyone to seal the stone door and return to the ground.

Everyone had been resting in Xiye Ancient City for three days and three nights before they headed to Jingjue Ancient City deep in the Black Desert.

This is already the deepest part of the entire desert, and there is no longer any poplar euphratica, saxacum, etc. The surrounding dunes have become very similar. No matter where or from any angle, they feel exactly the same. In addition, there are no reference objects around, so it is very easy to get lost.

Even An Liman came in here for the first time in his life. He said that if he hadn't been blessed by the white camel elf and killed him, he wouldn't have come to this desert hell.

An Liman is worthy of being a living map of the desert. His familiarity with the desert is like a woman fiddling with pots and pans. He will stop from time to time to compare the direction of the sun, and then determine the direction of travel.

Under his leadership, everyone rushed in the black desert for another day. After dark, they found a dune with a shade and camped for rest.

An Liman taught everyone a way to reduce the heat, which was to dig a sand pit under the sand, place a tent on the sand pit, and lie in it and sleep, which was much cooler than lying directly on the sand surface.

This method is indeed effective, but the temperature in the desert is too high. Even if it is lowered a little, it still makes people feel extremely hot.

Sister Ye Yixin has the worst physique. She has heatstroke in such a hot environment and is dizzy. She has no way to rush to go and can't eat.

Seeing this, Chen Hao had to let the fat man carry her on his back.

The fat man was happy. As soon as Ye Yixin was weak in the past few days, she was so thin that she was skinny and boneless. She weighed less than 90 pounds and didn't have much burden on her back.

Another thing is that walking in such a place with a beautiful girl on her back is not a bad thing.

Along the way, everyone rode camels and drove No. 11 again, and stopped and took 5 days to finally arrive at the deepest part of the Black Desert.

At this time, they only had the last little water left and there was not much food left. Lack of water was the biggest problem they faced.

Everyone had to stop and discussed whether to continue looking for Jingjue Ancient City. Perhaps after finding the ancient city, there is water source inside to be replenished in time.

But doing this requires a great risk. Perhaps after 7 years, the water source in the ancient city has long been exhausted. After entering, they cannot replenish the water source, so there is only a dead end.

A more conservative approach is to either turn back to Xiye Ancient City now, replenish enough water sources, and then come back to find Jingjue Ancient City. All previous efforts were in vain.

What's worse is that after these long journeys over the past few days, Ye Yixin and Professor Chen couldn't stand it anymore, especially Ye Yixin, who had been in a coma for several days, had a high fever and had suffered from severe dehydration.

Chen Hao couldn't bear to let everyone suffer, so he had to exchange some mineral water from the system with the achievement point, find a place where no one was, put it in a kettle, and give it to everyone to drink.

Because at this time, only Hu Bayi and Xueli had a little water left, and everyone else had drunk it.

His kettle could hold more than three pounds of water. It took 3 bottles of mineral water to fill it up and distributed it to everyone. Everyone could drink several sips. Everyone was very grateful to him and thought he was reluctant to take a sip along the way, so he left it for them to drink.

Everyone left some water and fed it to Ye Yixin. After drinking the water, they rested for another morning. The girl actually woke up, but she was still very weak.

After resting, everyone continued to discuss the two plans proposed before, but half of the people chose to return to Xiye City, and half of the people chose to continue looking for Jingjue Ancient City, which was difficult to make a decision for a while.
