Chapter 560: The jetted sand column shows sincerity, ask for the moon

“Buzz…”

The sound of the sound in the sand dunes behind Su Peng was like the sound of a huge monster breathing. In an instant, it made a sound like a train whistle, but several times louder.

Su Peng and others were attracted by the attention. They saw that in the sand dunes, it seemed as if a huge whale was breathing. The yellow sand in the sky was blown up and flew to an altitude of about a hundred meters in the air, and then it fell down.

"What?"

When Su Peng saw this, he was shocked. Today, he could be said to be full of disasters and difficulties, and various things happened in succession. I don’t know what happened again this time.

The guards of Kucha Gan City had just experienced a sandstorm and were in a fragile spirit. When they saw this abnormality, many people were frightened. Some people rolled and crawled away from the direction of the squirting sand, while others simply knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing and praying.

Su Peng quickly ran towards that direction, Ouyang Qing was in this direction, and at this time he was holding a long knife and watching the sprayed sand in the sky.

After nearly ten minutes of spraying out, the power of the sand slowly weakened. The sand pillar fell down. Then, there was a sound of something huge inhaling. The sound was extremely strange, as if some huge monster was breathing.

Su Peng came to Ouyang Qing in front of that direction. Listening to this voice, Su Peng looked solemnly and said to Ouyang Qing beside him: "Brother Ouyang, do you hear the sound of what kind of thing?"

Ouyang Qing's expression was also very serious. He listened for a while and found that the breath-like sound lasted for several minutes before saying, "I don't know, but looking at the scene just now, it seems that when I was in Tengzhou, I heard some people who were traveling to the sea say the breathing sound of the giant whales in the sea... But looking at the height and thickness of the sand column, I am afraid that if it was really something that was sprayed out by a living creature, it was several times larger than a whale. Could it be that there was a whale in the desert like a sea?"

Su Peng was also shocked when he heard this.

As a person baptized by modern film and television art, Su Peng has watched many movies. He just remembers that there seems to be a movie in which a huge ray and whale that takes sand as the sea and can survive in the desert appeared in the desert.

But this is the world of death and reincarnation, not the world of movies. Could it be that there are also such fantasy creatures here?

Just as Su Peng was thinking, the sound of inhaling lasted for more than ten minutes. It turned into a sound of exhaling again. Suddenly, another piece of curled sand column rose up and rose to more than a hundred meters in the sky.

In that scene, it seemed that there was a giant whale or some giant living in the desert, breathing under the desert.

Seeing this scene, many of the guards in Kucha Gan City had already started shouting words like demons, which seemed panic for a while. The guards didn't even listen to the orders of the leader Ganluo. If they weren't for some basic constraints, they would probably have collapsed and fled.

"You can't just do this, even if you are a monster, we have to check it out!"

When Su Peng saw this, his eyes flashed with a brilliance and he said firmly.

Ouyang Qing was also a brave man. At this time, he calmed down and nodded, "Let's go check it out!"

Su Peng nodded, then shouted to the back: "The one behind, those who don't have the courage, just kneel here. They are heroes. Let me and Brother Ouyang see what kind of monster it is!"

After hearing Su Peng's words, the two wolves in the Western Regions who had gathered here immediately raised their chests and walked over.

The sand scorpion, Xinjina, hesitated for a moment, looked at Ibn, the big moon man, and Ibn nodded. Xinjina shook her head, and the two of them came over.

And behind, Adula shouted, shouting twenty or thirty of his subordinates, and also came over.

Su Peng saw it and nodded. Adula's subordinates were worthy of rolling in the desert, and their courage was much greater than others.

Those four masters in the world can perform well. Perhaps some of these people are greedy, but it is not vague that things really happen.

In this way, these people have gathered together. Su Peng and Ouyang Qing took the lead and told the leader of Ganluo to stabilize the place. The thirty or forty people went to the place where the strange situation occurred.

...

The place where the abnormality occurred is actually not far from where Su Peng and others gather, only less than 800 meters away.

Su Peng and thirty or forty people soon arrived at that place.

When they arrived here, Su Peng and others stood on a sand dune, looking at each other, looking at the place where the sand was spraying below.

There was no monster in the place where the sand column was ejected. There was a concave area. There was a huge black iron plate like something under the sand.

The black iron plate-like thing looked like a lid, with a length and width of more than one hundred meters. Su Peng seemed to guess that this thing should be pressed under a sand dune, but the previous sandstorm blew the entire sand dune elsewhere and exposed the one below.

Under the huge black iron plate-like thing was a huge iron plate like a colander. However, there were many deep holes on this iron plate. The iron plate was at least one meter thick and had hundreds of round holes one to half a meter on it. These round holes were constantly spraying out sand columns.

There were constantly sand and the sand in the surrounding dunes, which were blown up by strong winds from unknown places on the black iron plates. The wind pressure there was extremely strong. Once the sand was blown up, it would fly to a height of 100 meters and then form sand columns.

Su Peng looked at this huge iron plate and felt a little shocked. Such a thing must not be formed naturally, but someone should have made it.

But I don’t know what is under that iron plate full of holes.

...

Just after Su Peng and others watched for a few minutes, the wind blowing from the ground and through the iron plates with countless holes gradually became smaller, and the sand columns blown out gradually decreased.

Soon, the wind blowing from the ground seemed to stop, and the surrounding sand began to flow down to the huge black iron plate due to gravity, pouring into the ground from the hole, and I don't know where it fell.

However, the calm lasted only one or two minutes. Soon, the unknown underground space actually produced a huge suction force, as if a giant whale was sucking water. The surrounding yellow sand was attracted by the powerful suction force to the holes of the black iron plate and flowed into the underground.

Su Peng and others stood on the sand dune about sixty or seventy meters away. They could feel the sensation of wind, which showed how strong the suction force was.

The expressions of Adula and others around him were very shocked. Looking at this place, I didn’t know what to say.

Su Peng was the first to react. He turned around and said to Adula: "Adula, it doesn't seem that this place can be formed naturally. What do you think this should be?"

Adula looked at the wonder in front of her and said for a while: "I don't know about this thing...but it looks a bit like a vent in a secret passage? But if it is a vent, this thing is too big..."

“Vent vent?”

After hearing this, Su Peng suddenly seemed to think of something. He pondered for a moment and said to Ouyang Qing and Adula: "Brother Ouyang, leader of Adula, I suddenly had an idea. If this is a ventilator, is this place the ventilator of the ancient city of Senyu?"

"You mean, this is the Ancient City of Forest Prison? Is the Ancient City of Forest Prison underground?"

When Ouyang Qing heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked Su Peng.

"That's right! All the information we got. There is no explanation. The ancient city of Forest Prison is not underground!"

Su Peng nodded and said.

"……yes!"

Adula also felt as if she had realized it suddenly and slapped her thigh and said.

"The ancient city of Forest Prison is recorded in classics. There should be such a place...but, over the years, everyone has truly discovered it."

"I also wondered, if it really exists, then there will always be a record of scales for four or five thousand years, but why hasn't anyone seen it? Although I once suspected that it was deeper in the desert, it would be inappropriate to think about it carefully. Since it is a city, it must be within the scope of the previous oasis. Otherwise, in the depths of the real desert, no one has the financial ability to build a city."

"But the oasis back then was just in such a range, but no one discovered this ancient city of Forest Prison... This has to be said to be a contradiction and a doubt."

"But if this ancient city of Forest Prison was built underground, everything would be explained!"

Adula patted her thighs and said to Su Peng and Ouyang Qing.

Su Peng nodded, he looked here and said, "I feel more and more that this is the ancient city of Forest Prison... But if you want to investigate, you must go in. Those holes seem to be unable to enter. We have to think of a way to find out if the inference is correct."

"There is a way to do this."

When Adula heard this, he laughed and said, "I knew it was an adventure this time, so I bought many long tough ropes and put them on the camels to carry them. There were hundreds of them. After the camels found this place, we found someone to come over. When it was calm there, tie the ropes to the iron plate. Then hundreds of people added camels to lift the iron plate so that they could enter below and check whether it was the ancient city of Forest Prison."

“So very good.”

After hearing this, Su Peng nodded and responded.

...

The few people present were all very motivated. They left more than 20 people to guard here, and the rest returned to the place where they gathered and informed the situation where they guarded the place.

After learning the real situation here, the guards and bamboo shoots breathed a sigh of relief. What people feared was unknown. If they understood what Dingxi was, their fear would naturally disappear.

Su Peng and others waited for nearly an hour. Sure enough, the lost camels were attracted by the smell in Adula's medicine jar and found them by themselves.

Su Peng and others counted that more than 140 camels were alive, and there were only twenty or thirty camels with their supplies. Most of the supplies were still there except for the tent.

Su Peng was already very satisfied with this result. He rectified the team and brought the guards and camels to the place where the black iron plate was...
