Chapter 448

In front of the sand dune, in the endless desert, a strange stone pillar suddenly appeared. The nearest stone pillar to Shen Shi was about thirty feet away from him, not far from the bottom of the sand dune. From a distance, the stone pillars over there look very strange in shape. Although they are different in size, they are almost all big at the top and bottom, and small in the middle.

After looking at it carefully for a while, Shen Shi looked around again. He saw that in the nearby desert, there was nothing unusual except the strange stone pillar that suddenly appeared. There was yellow sand everywhere. So after pondering for a moment, he took Xiao Hei to the stone pillars.

This distance is not too far. After going down the sand dune, Shen Shi quickly came to the periphery of the stone pillars. However, Shen Shi was a little careful. In this mysterious place, everything seems strange. Maybe some dangerous things will come out at any time.

When he came near, he could see these strange looking stone pillars more clearly. Shen Shi then found that the stone pillars standing in the desert seemed to be more like a kind of yellow clay, with potholes on the surface and short but sharp spines. The size of the stone column is not small. Generally, it is at least two people high. The strange thing is that the lower part is like a mound, and the middle part suddenly shrinks, and the upper part becomes a ball. The surface of the sphere is dry and hard, with few cracks and cavities, but there are obvious traces of sand erosion in many places.

At this moment, the sun is burning in the sky. It seems that it is the hottest time of the day. The temperature in this desert is also extremely hot. Even the monks who have been trained like Shen Shi feel a little uncomfortable. The clay stone columns exposed to the sun do not seem to be alive at all, and they can't see any rules one by one, so they are silent The earth stands in the desert.

Shen Shi frowned and looked to the left and right. It seemed that there were a lot of tall stone pillars in the forest, which stretched out to the depth of the desert. These stone pillars had strange shapes that he had never seen before. The most important thing is that the yellow clay like things on these stone pillars are obviously different from ordinary stones, and they are also different from the tiny sand everywhere around them. But in the vast desert, except for sand or sand, there are no other things around them except these stone pillars.

Is it something from an ancient age thousands of years ago that has been passed down to this desert?

Shen Shi shook his head. After pondering for a moment, he continued to walk into the stone pillar forest.

The tall stone pillars stood in silence, and the fierce sunlight seemed to be with a trace of ferocity, which evaporated all the life here, and even could not find a slightly shady place. I don't know why, Shen Shi is walking, but he has a kind of uncomfortable feeling, as if he was peeped at in the dark.

Shen Shi's steps pause slightly, and his eyes sweep around, but the stone column is silent and motionless. He looked down at Xiaohei again, and he saw that Xiaohei looked listless. No matter what kind of creatures, even with the strong blood of monsters, they would not feel comfortable in such a hot and dry desert or in the hot sun. However, in addition, black seems to have no more unusual.

Shen Shi thought about it, but he went on. With his continuous progress, he gradually came to the depth of the stone forest, and the stone pillars around him began to become tall, and even began to appear as tall as three or four feet. However, the higher the stone pillars are, the wider the distance between them is. It is obvious that in a certain area, there will only be one of the tallest stone pillars, and the rest are relatively shorter ones.

However, in addition to these, Shen Shi did not find anything.

There are no plants, no animals, no vitality, and even no insects. Only these mysterious and strange stone forests, high or low, stand alone and silent in this scorching desert.

Shen Shi passed by a stone pillar and suddenly stopped. First, he looked at the front stone pillar. It was not very tall. Even if the lower part of the mound was included, it was close to two people. The yellowish brown surface is covered with hard sand, which can be seen everywhere.

Shen Shi gazed for a moment, then stretched out his hand and touched the pillar carefully.

There was a rough and hard feeling from the tentacles, and a trace of scalding heat.

Shen Shi frowned and drew back his hand. Unexpectedly, the surface of these stone pillars was exposed to the hot sun for a long time, so the temperature of the stone surface was a little frightening.

After standing in the same place and thinking for a moment, Shen Shi still didn't seem to have any clue, so he had to go on. Only this time, he just took more than ten steps. Suddenly, he was shocked, his eyes were slightly fixed, and he looked forward.

In the depth of this strange and silent stone column, he suddenly saw a wall.

Yes, one side of the broken earth wall, which had been weathered for a long time and could only barely see the outline, stood alone behind a stone pillar in front of it.

Shen Shi's spirit was suddenly aroused. This is the second thing he saw in the desert after he came to the desert, except for these strange stone pillars. Moreover, the wall is obviously made by intelligent races. Even if the wall is already weathered and broken, it is good to find some traces left by predecessors. Moreover, if it is really the architectural relics made by predecessors, then it should not be just this. Maybe there will be more discoveries.He looked a little happy and said hello to Xiao Hei. Then he walked forward quickly. Xiao Hei looked up at him and grunted twice. Then he ran with him listlessly.

In the twinkling of an eye, Shen Shi came to the side of the wall, and saw that the wall was extremely broken, leaving only a little fault. The highest place was only two feet high, and both sides of the wall were covered by yellow sand, revealing an indescribable desolation. Shen Shi tried to pat the wall lightly, but as soon as he exerted his hand, he felt that it was light under his hand. Unexpectedly, a large piece of wall turned directly into a piece of ash and silt of different sizes and fell down.

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment. The degree of damage of the wall was even beyond his imagination. It seemed that it had been broken for countless years. When he bypassed the wall, he found that there were other similar debris behind the wall, which began to rise and fall in the stone pillar forest, and it seemed that the scale was not small and the distribution area was quite large.

Looks like, is it an ancient village?

Shen Shi's spirit was greatly boosted, and he stepped forward. There were many broken earth walls in front of him. There was an ancient and desolate atmosphere in the yellow sand everywhere. But except for these ruins, except for those doors and windows and beams that can barely see some outline, he still did not find any breath of life, no trace of anyone who had ever lived here.

Everything seems to have been annihilated with the passage of time, even the remains of this piece of relics, it does not seem to take too long, will be mercilessly engulfed by this desert.

At the same time, in the ruins of this ancient village, Shen Shi found that the strange stone pillars were still densely distributed, and the density of the large and small ones was even more than that of the surrounding stone forest. Many of the stone pillars were directly born in the courtyard of some houses, and even rose directly from the damaged houses.

This kind of scene makes people feel strange and abrupt. He always feels that something is wrong. Shen Shi frowns slightly, as if he is subconscious. He lightens his steps and walks quietly in the ruins. Tall stone pillars were not far away from him, but it felt like the ancient village was drowned by these strange stone pillars, especially in the ruins.

Like a sharp blade into the body!

There's the creepy illusion.

In front of him, he suddenly saw a piece of ruins. It looked a little more complete and tall than the surrounding walls, but it was also dilapidated. At most, the remaining walls were a little higher, and the houses inside were still a little bit like.

Shen Shi moved in his heart and went to the room. Xiao Hei followed him and suddenly looked up at the scorching sun. He saw that the sun had moved slowly to the West for a few minutes. The sky was still bright, but it seemed to be softer, and the temperature around him had dropped a little.

The door of this ruined house has long disappeared. Shen Shi directly stepped in from a small gap on the dilapidated wall. Looking at the outline of the ruins around him, it seems that there was a small yard earlier, and the houses in front of him are quite large. It must have been in those days that the owner of the house here was a person with a certain status in this village.

Shen Shi looked around for a moment, and then walked towards the house. Most of the houses in the ruins were weathered and collapsed. Only the largest house in the middle had three walls, but the roof had long disappeared.

Walking up the steps or the mound of soil, Shen Shi walked into the room. There was fine sand everywhere. But a little inside, he found half of the table lying on the ground. There was a mound of brick and stone, which seemed to be a stove, but it might just be a simple stone frame. In short, he couldn't see it.

In addition, there is no trace of life. Shen Shi shakes his head and turns around to go out. But at this moment, Xiao Hei, who had followed him into the room, suddenly gets a stir in his nose. Then he trots to the side of the mound. After smelling everywhere, he shouts at Shen Shi.

Shen Shi picked his eyebrows and walked over quickly. He looked at the earth mound carefully. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly stretched out his hands and pushed the sand away.

After a while of hard work, when the yellow sand was blown away, in front of Shen Shi and Xiao Hei, on the ground of the ruins, there was a mottled and worn stone slab, which was full of rough marks after many years.

Shen Shi looked at them, suddenly stretched out his hand and drank in a low voice. With a low dull sound, "boom", the stone slab rose. Then, in front of them, a downward black hole appeared.
