The gentleness at night and the gentleness during the day seemed to have a distinct difference! What was the difference? He Yi and Ji Xueshan were not very clear, because only two nights they had the opportunity to get along with the gentleness, but they were drugged and fell into a deep sleep.
It was clear that the gentleness did not want them to see something they should not see.
Last night, he Yi saw the skinny mercenary walking out of the gentle tent with her own eyes. She even knew that he was a woman disguised as a man. It was really strange for gentle to bring a sexual partner into the desert.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the vast desert, presenting a magnificent scene.
He Yi looked at the setting sun, which was about to set in the west, and the doubts in her heart grew.
!!
Since the gentleness at night was somewhat strange, she and Ji Xueshan even needed to be drugged to cover up his unknown side. Then would he choose to go down to the tomb of Queen Loulan at night?

The convoy followed the setting sun and finally arrived at the ruins of Loulan’s ancient city before the last wisp of red clouds faded away.
Although the ancient city had experienced the plundering of thousands of years of wind and sand, its ancient charm still remained. The tall stone pillars and majestic broken walls all showed the glory and grace of the city in the past.
Walking on the uneven road and looking at the dilapidated buildings on both sides, it was as if they had entered a mysterious alternate dimension.
The car had stopped long ago. Because the road of the ancient city was badly damaged, it was impossible to drive, so they could only abandon the car.
The group of people took the necessary items and walked through the desolate ancient city, as if they were a stranger who had suddenly barged in. They did not fit in with the deathly silence here.
Twilight gradually arrived, and the visibility slowly decreased.
There were no birdsong or insect cries. Other than the sound of Boots stepping on the sand, there was no other sound. He Yi looked at the gradually thickening twilight and felt a gloomy and cold air slowly surrounding them.
“Mr. Wen.”He Yi finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and caught up with the gentleness in front of her. He walked extremely fast, which was a little different from him during the day. During the day, regardless of whether things were fast or slow, he almost walked steadily without a trace of impatience. “Please stop for a moment!”
The gentleness stopped and slowly turned around.
He Yi could not help but tremble. She saw that gentle’s eyes were a little bright and seemed to be shining when he looked at her.
Seeing he Yi’s surprised and frightened look, gentle seemed to realize that she might scare her. She quickly lowered her eyes and said indifferently, “What’s the matter?”
Hearing that his voice was still normal, he yi suppressed the doubt and fear in her heart and asked calmly, “Are we preparing to go to the Queen’s Tomb?”
“No!”Gentle immediately denied it. “Rest first and replenish your strength! We’ll move at midnight!”
He was concise and did not utter a single word of nonsense, but it was slightly different from his usual style.
Although his usual gentleness was indifferent, it was as his name suggested. He was really gentle and did not have any aggressiveness. Even his words were very mellow, and he considered the feelings of others in an extremely gentlemanly manner.
At this moment, he was not willing to say a single word. He seemed to be slightly anxious, but at the same time, he seemed to be suppressing some kind of emotion.
“OH.”He Yi did not dare to ask further. She only felt that her heart was beating wildly in her chest. “Okay.”
He turned around gently and quickened his pace.
When the sky was completely dark, they finally arrived at the imperial palace on time.
The so-called palace was just an even more magnificent broken house. But it could be seen that the degree of damage was much lower than those ordinary houses outside.
He Yi somewhat understood. The main reason why he chose to stay here was for safety reasons. Thousands of years old dilapidated houses were on the verge of collapse and could not be used as a shelter at all. It was safer only to rush to the palace.
Although the palace looked very dilapidated, its sturdiness and safety were undoubtedly far greater than ordinary houses.
After entering the main hall and walking for about ten minutes, they finally found a suitable place to rest.
This place was completely airtight, and there were many stone pillars carved with dragons and phoenixes in the hall. He Yi understood the reason why he gently chose this place — the stone pillars could play a very good role in supporting! Therefore, this place should be the most secure and safest place in the entire Loulan ancient city.
Finally, they could sit down and rest. Everyone finally heaved a sigh of relief. They took off the materials and equipment on their bodies and began to start a fire to boil water and cook.
There were a few mercenaries who brought light gas cookers. No matter where they went, it was convenient for them to fire at any time.
