  This dream could not be completed.
  Early the next morning, Cheng Xuyuan was awakened by the aroma of breakfast. When I woke up from a clear dream, I saw a handsome figure standing beside the bed holding breakfast.
  "Go wash up." Tang Yunxian said to him with a smile, "We can set off after eating."
  Cheng Xuyuan recovered from the shock caused by the dream. He blinked and turned his attention to the fragrance. on the food.
  After breakfast, everyone gathered together, checked the necessary luggage, went to the town's inn to take a few camels that had been reserved in advance, crossed the long road, and headed for the desert under the scorching sun.
  Many residents in the town claimed to have seen the ancient country, and Tang Yunxian went to ask them about it. But these people's statements are all kinds of weird, and the locations they refer to are also in the southeast, northwest, and it's really confusing.
  Tang Yunxian simply gave up, took out the Gaode map, marked the place where his finger pointed, and resigned himself to heading in that direction.
  Before leaving the town, Zhao Xintong couldn't help but look back. After all, this was a dangerous journey, and she still felt a little timid.
  The small town on the edge of the desert is like a gem embedded in the wind and sand. The greening is very good and the exotic buildings shine in the sun, forming a unique scenery in the desert.
  Everyone rode on camels and drifted away, and the small town gradually turned into a small black shadow in the wind and sand.
  The scorching sun was scorching everyone, and even if they were fully armed, they could feel the scalding heat waves hitting them in waves.
  In Tang Yunxian's backpack, there were the compass borrowed from Lu Tan, the key left by Grandpa Zhao Xintong, and some archaeological notes related to the Star Kingdom.
  As the camel team continued to approach the center of the desert, the compass trembled.
  But because it was placed in the bag, Tang Yunxian didn't notice it.
  Time flies in the desert, the sun climbs overhead, and the team stops for lunch.
  He Zhen thoughtfully handed Cheng Xuyuan a bottle of mineral water. For some reason, he suddenly felt that He Zhen's appearance looked familiar.
  After finishing lunch, Tang Yunxian sat on the back of the camel and continued to feel the natural sunbathing in the desert, his head becoming groggy. He couldn't help but lie down on the hump, and sleepiness gradually invaded his mind.
  This state seems quite comfortable...
  Between half asleep and half awake, countless small voices can be heard in my ears.

rang, gradually becoming louder and clearer.
  "Burn him to death!"
  "Burn him to death!"
  "Burn Li Yuan to death!"
  Tang Yunxian frowned slightly, not quite understanding why these fierce voices contained strong indignation.
  Then he seemed to have entered a dream again, and the sound in his ears became more and more noisy, as if millions of people were shouting at the same time, vowing to burn the man named "Li Yuan" to powder. The chaotic crowd, the blazing
  torches , and the running footsteps.
  The palace appeared in front of Tang Yunxian's eyes. He was floating in mid-air and saw a familiar figure coming out of the dormitory. He was dressed in a black dragon robe and looked slightly embarrassed at the moment.
  The emperor's face looked pale, and even the dragon crown on his head was crooked. He grabbed the minister beside him anxiously and roared: "Where is Li Yuan?"
  "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." The minister's legs suddenly became weak , and he knelt down in front of the emperor with a "plop", "Master Li, he , he is in the Star-Zhaing Tower..."
  The emperor saw the Star-Zhain Tower burning in the distance at a glance. The raging flames formed tongues of fire, like fire dragons rising from the ground, which looked shocking under the night.
  "Yuan, Yuan'er..."
  The emperor's voice was obviously trembling. The emperor's majesty no longer existed, and his eyes instantly turned red.
  He didn't get angry or cry, he just lost all his strength in an instant.
  It seemed that he had been the emperor for too long, and he was used to living with a mask. At this moment, watching the person he loved being burned to death, he was so sad that he didn't know how to react, and he even forgot to breathe.
  The great sadness was like a toppling mountain. The emperor took a few steps forward, but finally fell to the ground.
  In the distance, the military attachés and soldiers were still cheering for the victory. Li Yuan, whom they called the "criminal minister", finally died.
  The sad ending of this scene came too suddenly, and Tang Yunxian suddenly fell into sadness.
  He could see that the emperor loved the man named Li Yuan deeply, and Li Yuan was also a kind-hearted astrologer who cared about the common people... Why did things become like this? Before the doubts could be
  solved
  , Tang Yunxian woke up from his dream when the camel jolted.
  "Tang Yunxian, be careful!" Tai Sui's voice came from the side, with anxiety and worry, "There is quicksand under your feet!"
  Tang Yunxian quickly looked at the camel's feet, and saw that the camel's footsteps seemed to have stepped on a sponge, slowly and slowly. The ground sank, and others quickly moved away from the area.
  Logically speaking, when you encounter quicksand in the desert, it usually occurs in a relatively large area. It is unlikely that it would only appear under your feet like Tang Yunxian's.
  Everyone got off the camels one after another, not knowing what to do for a while.
  Cheng Xuyuan took out a rope from his bag, which was originally used to tie up clothes. He quickly rushed forward with the rope in hand.
  He Zhen's voice sounded: "That's quicksand, be careful -" Before he
  could finish his words, Cheng Xuyuan jumped up from the flat bottom, stirring up dust all over the ground. He completed a jump that was impossible for normal humans, and his long legs suddenly jumped onto the camel's back.
  Before Tang Yunxian could react, Cheng Xuyuan had already picked him up, easily jumped off the camel's back with him, and rolled him in the sand a few times.
  Tang Yunxian didn't care about the gravel that got into his clothes. All his eyes were focused on the face of the boy holding him.
  The closer the distance, the more heart-warming this face becomes.
  Cheng Xuyuan pushed him away violently, "If you continue to hold me, your camel will die."
  Tang Yunxian climbed up from him in a daze, watched the young man stand up, swung the rope from a distance, and pulled the camel He rescued it from the quicksand with his hind legs, as easily as he was holding a puppy.
  Everyone was shocked by the seemingly frail Cheng Xuyuan. His jumping ability and explosive power were unmatched by anyone even among national athletes!
  After rescuing Tang Yunxian and the camel, Cheng Xuyuan calmly sat back on his camel and said loudly to everyone: "You should pay attention to your steps. You can set up camp after walking a little further..."
  Next , everyone originally thought that there would be no more accidents, but something strange happened.
  Every once in a while, small quicksand would appear under Tang Yunxian's feet. Fortunately, he was on guard and avoided it without incident every time.
  This time, small quicksands seemed to guide him, and they did not appear again until dark.
  The moonlight was like water, and the sunless desert quickly cooled down. Everyone hurriedly took out their prepared cotton jackets and tents and prepared to set up camp.
  Zhao Xintong, who was warming himself by the fire in the desert, couldn't help but sigh: "People who can walk into the desert on foot are really brave..."
  In fact, they have not encountered real danger so far, so everyone can sleep peacefully at night.
  However, in the middle of the night, a strong wind suddenly blew in the desert.
