Chapter three hundred and sixty seventh: the ancient city
"Ahao, be careful!"
Hu Bayi's scream came from next to him.
Chen Hao immediately felt a strong wind blowing from the back of his neck. He turned his head without thinking, and a black shadow flew over his scalp. At the same time, Hu Bayi's engineer shovel also flew over.
At almost zero or so seconds, Chen Hao reached out his hand and pinched the snake's head in the air. The whole process was so fast that only a series of shadows were seen.
By the time everyone realized it, Chen Hao had already pinched the snake's head and threw the snake's corpse aside. Everyone looked at him with a monster-like look.
"What a quick skill..." Xueli muttered to herself with her beautiful eyes widened.
The fat man swallowed hard, "Damn, this is not a hit? What a quick reaction speed!"
Hu Bayi was holding the engineer shovel and looked at Chen Hao in disbelief. Chen Hao's reaction speed shocked him. If it were him just now, he would have been sneaked up by a snake, let alone in that situation where he could still fight the virus.
After dealing with the two poisonous snakes, Chen Hao inspected several corpses around him and found that there were no more poisonous snakes, so he called everyone in.
At this time, the camels finally dared to go in. The reason why they didn't dare to go there was because they had a premonition that there were dangerous things hidden here in advance.
Hao Aiguo came to the corpses, looked at them and said, "These people died so miserable that we cannot let them corpses here. When I saw these wilderness corpses, I remembered the people who sent me to the earth kiln for labor reform. Those people died pitifully. After they died, they were exposed to the wilderness, without even a straw mat with a roll of corpses..."
As he said that, he went to mop the corpse on the floor. Suddenly, a black shadow rushed out of the sand beneath the corpse and flew to him in a flash!
"careful!"
"Do not to escape!"
Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
At this time, Chen Hao was walking in front and had no time to rescue him. Fortunately, Hu Bayi next to him was quick and slapped him with a shovel, chopping the snake into two pieces in the air.
The black snake fell to the ground with two corpses. Hao Aiguo was so scared that he collapsed on the ground and hurriedly said, "Comrade Xiao Hu, thank you..."
Before he could finish his words, suddenly, the snake head on the ground bounced up from the ground and flew towards Hao Aiguo like an arrow!
Chen Hao had expected this scene and had thrown the soul-chasing sword in advance. He saw a flash of sword light, and the snake head was only two inches away from Hao Aiguo's neck, and he slashed it to the side.
Everyone couldn't help but sweat. Hao Aiguo was even more scared and his legs were so scared that he was weak. Hu Bayi had to help him up from the ground.
"It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, leave quickly!" Chen Hao instructed.
These snakes have extremely high IQs and know that they will hide under the sand. He just checked it and didn't find it yet, so he almost killed Hao Aiguo.
Everyone dared not delay, so they quickly led the camel and quickly left the valley.
After entering the valley, a huge city standing in the dark appeared in front of you. There was no sight at all. There was a dilapidated and depressed scene, with broken walls and broken stones everywhere, and most of the entire city was buried in the yellow sand.
The city is very large, more than three times larger than the Xiye Ancient City I saw before. It looks dilapidated and depressed, and it is not difficult to imagine the prosperity and spectacular at that time!
Xiye Ancient City is said to have a population of 30,000 at that time. Based on the size of this Jingjue Ancient City, it can live at least 90,000 people. This shows how powerful the national strength of the Jingjue Kingdom was at that time!
Sydney sighed: "There are huge magnetic mountains around this city, and it is difficult for planes to fly above. Moreover, it is in the depths of the desert, which is difficult for ordinary adventurers to find here. I didn't expect that after more than two thousand years, this ancient Jingjue ancient city actually exists in the world."
Professor Chen smiled and said, "Hard work pays off. We have been studying Western Region culture for decades, but I never thought that we would really see this mysterious ancient city in our lifetime. Today, I was willing to bury my old bone here..."
Hao Guo said excitedly: "Haha! Yes, teacher. I have followed you to study Western Region culture since I was a child. I have always dreamed of finding this legendary ancient city one day. I didn't expect that our wish will finally come true today..."
The remaining members of the archaeological team could not hide their joy. It was their greatest dream in their lifetime to find this legendary mysterious ancient city.
There is too little information about the Western Regions Desert, so foreigners don’t believe that the Western Regions once had that glorious past.
Today, they were fortunate to see this legendary ancient city. If they could bring some information back, it would definitely cause a sensation in the world and add valuable historical information to the vacant Western Region culture in China.
However, it was dark now, Chen Hao and everyone found a relatively well-preserved building in the ancient city for a night of rest.
Everyone put down their equipment, Chen Hao, Hu Bayi, and a few fat guys with good physical strength were responsible for going to the ancient city to find water, while the rest made fires and cooked on the spot.
Sydney was very interested in this ancient city and said she wanted to follow everyone to find water and get familiar with the environment of the city.
It was hard for everyone to refuse. Besides, her physique is much better than others, so she doesn't rush to rest, so it's okay to bring her with her.
After leaving the camp, the fat man couldn't wait to say, "Miss Yang, this time we have successfully taken you to find Jingjue Ancient City. According to the previous agreement, you have to give us double the wages after going back. That is, 20,000 US dollars per person, don't forget this."
Hu Bayi said from the side: "It's not bad, our brothers have not yet started a family and have no father, mother and wife, so we just rely on this little money to live..."
Chen Hao kept walking in front. After hearing the two of them, he nodded in agreement and said, "No, the cash will be settled in seconds after you go back!"
The small bungalow they rented at the moment really made him feel too uncomfortable to live in. I wanted to buy a small courtyard after going back, so that three people could squeeze into a small bungalow. That would be too hard...
Seeing that they all fell into money gazes, Xueli smiled and said, "Don't worry, you won't lose any money. You will be paid in seconds after you go back."
Everyone looked at each other and smiled happily on their faces. The money last time was used so quickly that before they could enjoy the life of rich people, they had to work hard to help others with their hard work. After doing this trip, they could finally go back and rest for a year and a half.
The fat man muttered, "This is almost the same. When you come to this place where birds don't poop, you have to bask in the sun every day without eating or drinking, which will cost me half of my life. After you go back this time, you won't go to the restaurant every day to make up for it!"
