The strongest heavenly master

Chapter 57 Searching for Xiye Ancient City
So, Gao Xing walked back, squeezed into the crowd, looked at the map carefully, and then expressed his opinion.

"I measured the direction just now, and we are indeed going astray. However, the direction we should deviate from is not too far away..."

While speaking, Gao Xing pointed to the map.

"If my feeling is correct, we should be in this position now... Xiye Ancient City is located to the southeast of us, not too far away.

If there is no problem on the road, hurry up and hurry, and you should be able to arrive in two or three days. "

An Liman looked at the route Gao Xing pointed out, then got up and glanced around, thought for a while, and nodded involuntarily.

Professor Chen thought for a while, and agreed to Gao Xing's plan: "Okay, since everyone's opinions are not unified, then follow the route Gao Xing said."

"go!"

A group of people left here in a mighty way.

As a result, after walking for two days, they did not find the remains of Xiye Ancient City.

Water, almost exhausted.

In the evening, a group of people sat around the fire with a heavy heart.

Hu Bayi sighed: "Let me report the situation to everyone. The food can last for two days, but the water is gone. You should still have a little bit on your body, which can barely last for a day.

In other words, the current situation is quite serious. If we can't find the ancient city of Xiye tomorrow night, or the source of water, the consequences will be disastrous. "

"Comrade Xiao Hu, rummage around and see if you can find the reserved water bag again."

"Professor Chen, Fatty and I have searched for it three times, and the water bladders are all empty."

Hearing this, the group could only look hopefully at An Liman.

"I don't even have any water..."

The fat man said unhappily: "I didn't ask you for water. Don't you claim to be a living map of the desert? How can you get lost?"

"It's because you guys didn't listen to my advice. I told you earlier, the Black Desert is not a random place..."

Gao Xing was a little annoyed by what he heard, so he couldn't help shouting: "Okay, stop arguing, is it useful? Save yourself some energy and continue looking for the way tomorrow. I believe we are not far from West Night City.

Hu, after dawn, let's observe the terrain together.After all, West Night City was not small back then, and some clues might be found through the compass. "

"Well, try it after dawn."

……

The sky in the desert is dark early and bright early.

When the first morning glow appeared in the sky, Hu Bayi took out his compass and began to walk slowly around, looking up at the sky at the same time, calculating the direction.

Gao Xing changed the direction, walked up to a nearby sand dune about tens of meters high, looked around for a while, then took out the compass and turned it from time to time...

When the sun broke through the clouds and dyed the sky red, Gao Xing let out a sigh of relief, with a hint of joy in his eyes.

"Old Hu, what did you find?"

Back below, Gao Xing walked towards Hu Bayi.

"What about you?"

"I think, I may have discovered something, and I can be sure that we are definitely not far from Xiye Ancient City."

"Ha, what a coincidence, I also discovered it. Why don't we write it on the sand?"

Hu Bayi couldn't help laughing.

Gao Xing nodded immediately: "Okay!"

So, with their backs to each other, they wrote a few words on the sand.

"Huh? You two have the same idea."

Xiaodie took a look with her head, and couldn't help but yelled.

That's right, according to Gao Xing and Hu Bayi's judgment, the location of Xiye Ancient City is the same as Gao Xing deduced before, it is in the southeast.

However, they have been walking for two days, and their current position is almost a little east of south.

Professor Chen cheered up: "Great, since you both speculated like this, I think there is nothing wrong this time."

"How about this..." Gao Xing suggested, "Let's go due east first. We don't think we will be able to walk very far until we reach the ancient Silk Road. At that time, An Liman must know the way."

"It makes sense, then go east!"

So, the group got up their spirits and headed towards the place where the sun rose.

This time it finally came.

After walking for about two hours, An Liman suddenly said pleasantly: "I know this place, it's great. In half a day, we will find water..."

"Wow!"

"Long live!"

Hearing An Liman's words, the group immediately rejoiced, and Ye Yixin and Xiaodie even screamed.

"Amazing, you two are masters!"

Hao Aiguo couldn't help but glanced at Gao Xing and Hu Bayi, and praised them sincerely.

After walking for a while, some bones began to appear on the side of the road, including humans, wolves, camels...

However, this was not frightening, on the contrary, the group began to cheer up.

"Yes, this must be the ancient Silk Road back then..."

Feeling excited, Professor Chen started to explain again.

"Back then, it was the only land passage linking the East and the West, and there were endless caravans, which was quite prosperous. However, at the same time, there were also many horse thieves and robbers who robbed the passing caravans on the Silk Road...

Now, if we keep walking along this ancient road, even if we can't find Xiye Ancient City, we will definitely find other ancient sites, or a small oasis..."

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, an ancient ruin finally appeared in front of the crowd.

"Haha, it really is a road that never ends!"

"Where is the ruins of Xiye Ancient City?"

"It looks a bit like it, after all, there were not many cities with such a large scale at that time..."

Although the ruins can already be seen, the group of people walked for about an hour before stepping into the ruins.

Compared with the remnants of avoiding the black storm last time, the weathering of the buildings here is much more serious.

Because this place does not belong to the quicksand area, the ruins have not been buried under the yellow sand, and have been exposed to the air for many years, so weathering is inevitable.

Many buildings have completely collapsed and merged with the surrounding desert.

However, judging from Candan Duanbi, the city is relatively large in scale.

It can be imagined that when the Silk Road was glorious, there must have been many caravans coming and going here, from inside and outside the customs, blond Hu merchants, hot Persian women...

"Cha, cha, cha!"

The ancient and vicissitudes of life made Shirley Yang and Chu Jian forget their hunger, thirst and fatigue, and excitedly picked up their cameras and kept taking pictures.

After all, there are too few people who can see this ruin with their own eyes.

They are undoubtedly the lucky ones to be able to come here.

"There's water there..."

An Liman jumped off the camel, pointed to a lonely earthen house not far away and said.

From the outside, the earthen house belongs to the Central Asian style. Although it looks like an earthen house now, it must have been weathered like this.

"How did water get in the house?"

Hu Bayi said with some doubts.

"I don't know, anyway, there is a well inside."

"Then I'll go in and have a look, you don't come in yet..."

Hu Bayi took out his pistol, walked carefully to the door with the flashlight in his hand, took a look around, and found that the inside was empty, and there was indeed a well in the middle.
