Chronicles of Primordial Wars
Chapter 338: The Palace
In the White Stone Desert area where White Stone City is located, Shao Xuan met two people who were assigned to patrol outside. However, based on their distractions, he wanted to know what was happening in White Stone City. Moreover, according to information Shao Xuan learned, the patrols outside White Stone City were much stricter in the past than they are now, and the patrols are not in the same state as they are now.
But also understandable.
For slaves, White Rock City is a very critical time, and the death of the great slave lords means that their biggest lords are gone, who will succeed them, who will soon become their next lords, everything is uncertain and worried about their future development.
Easily avoiding these distracted guards, Shao Xuan also pays attention to some of the surrounding creatures, such as flying birds, small animals, etc., may be another “eye” of the White Stone City people, who knows if there will be slaves in White Stone City? Be careful.
After coming to a large rock, the rock looked like a mushroom, with a large umbrella roof above it, because during the sandstorm, the sand of the large particles scraped closer to the ground, slowly grinding the rock closer to the ground, which is why it is now like this.
Hiding under here, Shao Xuan doesn't have to worry about being spotted by the birds above for now. Near the night, there are no patrols around here, and then he moves forward, and he is almost to White Stone City. Shao Xuan intends to rest for a while.
After drinking some water and regaining strength, Shao Xuan thought in his heart about the plan to blend into White Stone City. Just thinking, frowning, he's been thinking about how to get into White Rock City, but if the knife is in White Rock City, what if the knife isn't there? What are you doing in town?
Think about it, Shao Xuan will cut the next section of the rope off the camel. He intends to use this rope to take a look at the location of the knife and wonder if it will succeed.
When Bhu was finished, Shao Xuan opened his eyes and looked at the rope on his hand. He read out the closing words above and distinguished the orientation against the closing words above. He drew a picture of his fingers on the ground, and finally determined the orientation shown. However, this direction is not the orientation of White Rock City.
In any case, Shao Xuan intends to go and take a look.
Fortunately, it was a long time before it blended into White Rock City, otherwise it would be a waste of time.
After changing direction, Shao Xuan quickly passed in the direction indicated in the conclusion. Without the help of chirping, Shao Xuan's progress in the desert has slowed, but not slowly.
Walking, Shao Xuan discovered that the white stone desert area had exited. At such a critical time in White Rock City, the knife is not in the city, why are you running away?
Shao Xuan continued in that direction and took a short break at night, then continued his search until he came to a place.
It looks no different from the rest of the desert, looking at all the high and low dunes, even in relatively flat places, like wind-blown lakes, “glittering”.
The wind is slightly high and the sand and dust are flying.
Shao Xuan looked at a sand dune like a mountain range in front of him, and looked around him. He didn't see anything suspicious, but the conclusion showed that it should be around here. Is it necessary to keep moving forward?
Not only because of the closing words, Shao Xuan also has a strange feeling that there should always be something here.
Keep walking forward, climbing up a dune like a mountain range, and it feels even weirder inside.
In Shao Xuan's mind, the “enclosure” wrapped in fire flashed. Such a change made Shao Xuan stop.
When Shao Xuan was confused, he suddenly heard a slight noise. Although all the surrounding winds are shaking the sand particles, Shao Xuan's ears have been boosted after the improvement, and other sounds can be distinguished from those murmurs. That's obviously not the sound of the sand grain blowing.
Quickly lay on the ground, pull the hood up, and Shao Xuan looked past in the direction of the sound.
The sound appears very light in the sand and dust, such as the sound of a rock moving, cautious, and the person making the sound seems to be wary of something.
Shao Xuan lay patiently there, staring in the direction of the sound.
The surrounding sand was blown on Shao Xuan's body and quickly covered the layer.
Shortly afterwards, Shao Xuan discovered that between the two sand dunes in front, a gap was opened on the ground and the sand fell down.
The opening gap was getting bigger and bigger. Until he was able to allow one person to go out, Shao Xuan didn't see a person rapidly coming out of the inside. He looked around cautiously and waved down.
Shao Xuan saw that he had moved a person out of the open gap and that someone seemed to be helping deliver it underground. However, the underground gap was closed when the unknown person was removed.
The person who first came out looked around and dragged the person who didn't know he was alive to a distance.
Shao Xuan thought about it and walked along the ridge line through the cover of the sand ridge. Although he could not follow closely, at least he could see which way the person was going.
The man walked out a distance, went around a hill, then dug the sand on the ground with his hand, dug out a pit, pushed the person in, and before burying it, he would also push the pit to remove all the clothes on the person, compare on himself, seemingly to keep it for himself.
Put away the stripped clothes and fill the pit with sand, and the person looked around before returning.
Shao Xuan watched the man return to the place where he came out. He opened the sand that had already been covered and snapped the tablet down.
The tablet moved away, and the man said something to the person below, from the open sew down.
The slab closed again and everything was back to normal. The wind quickly drove the sand, covering the place up, and nothing abnormal could be seen.
Shao Xuan wrote down the place and came to the place where the man had just buried the man, opened the sand and saw the buried man.
Previously, this man's face was dragged down. Shao Xuan couldn't see him clearly, he could only see that he was an individual. Now, Shao Xuan finds that this man not only has a face, but also has many crashes and necrosis on his body. He looks very scary. There are also signs of bleeding in the nostrils, etc.
Shao Xuan couldn't see how the wounds on this man were caused, and there was no lettering on his face. Without those broken wounds, he should be a tall, muscularly knotted man. In the desert, even low-level slaves are a good workforce.
What's down there? Shao Xuan was curious. What's the purpose of a knife if it's here?
Shao Xuan lurked around looking for opportunities.
Around noon the following day, the desert was hot and Shao Xuan was still hiding behind the sand ridge, and his body had been covered with a layer of sand. Not concerned about the heat of the sand, Shao Xuan stared over there and heard a little movement.
Soon, it opened a gap again, and another person came out. Not the one Shao Xuan saw last night, doing the same thing.
When the other person came out, he also dragged the individual to the distance, intending to dig the pit and bury the person. Shao Xuan's sudden appearance surprised him. Before he could make a sound, he was strangled and both arms were removed.
Shao Xuan looked at the slave pattern that appeared and disappeared on him and found that he was a slave to White Stone City.
