Science tells us that existence is reasonable. But who can tell me why there is no trace of what was supposed to be there? I can't believe I was dreaming, that my body was still aching.

? ? Su Jin laughed

"We didn't find anything during the archaeological excavation. Nineteen years ago, there should have been debris from the destruction. Now, there is nothing left. We have explored the entire desert, but now we have found nothing." After tangling with the person called Sikong Qing for a few minutes, this professor, her teacher, finally broke the two of them being alone. He sat down in front of her and told the two of them what had happened this time.

"In other words, what was supposed to exist has now turned into sand?" Not seeing the actual situation, Su Jin laughed and made a wild guess.

"Xiaoxiao, you're right. Those palaces, stone pillars, and the things we discovered previously no longer exist. Back then, when they said that everything was destroyed, I didn't believe them. But now, it seems that our efforts were in vain." The professor's words were very accurate. No one had seen what had happened that year. That night was so quiet that it seemed to have made people forget the entire world. After it collapsed, they didn't stay any longer. The only thing they left behind was a bracelet. It's still stored in the lab's glass case.

Sikong Qingqing, who was standing to the side, frowned. He had thought that he would be able to find some clues this time around, the things he had lost that night and the situation where he had lost control of.

"Professor, I want to take a look." She didn't want to believe it when she was told that there was nothing at all. She was pounced on by someone in the underground palace last night, why was there nothing today? 'Can you not let such a fantasy happen to her? '

"I'll take you there. Can you move your body now?" Hearing Sikong Qingqing's arrogant words, Su Jin's lips curled up into a smile. She had forgotten that even though her wrist was painful, it was not as painful as her leg. If she wanted to leave, she needed help, but she really did not want to be together with this so-called handsome guy.

"No need. Qiu Yun, just take me out. We're classmates after all. Follow me ?" Her meaning was very simple. They did not know each other, neither did they intend to get to know each other. The young master of the Sikong Family was someone she could not afford to meet. Her identity was also a bit awkward.

"It's alright. Qiu Yun still has things to take care of. Since there's nothing else to investigate, let's go take a look and determine the date of return." As he spoke, he reached out for a piece of cloth and put it on Su Jin before picking her up.

"Hey ?"

"Don't tell me you want others to hug you?" There was no woman in this world who could let him carry her. If it wasn't for Su Jin's smile that gave him a sense of intimacy, he definitely wouldn't have come here and talked to her so much. Yet, this woman actually dared to reject him.

When he found her in the morning, he found out that Su Jin Xiao was the same person from last night. But she suddenly disappeared and appeared in the sand early in the morning with wounds all over her body. He didn't know why, but he felt as if his heart was beating non-stop the moment he saw her. It was the same feeling he had had a long time ago. Thus, he wanted to confirm if this woman was related to the person in his heart.

Su Jin laughed awkwardly as she held onto his clothes. Although she was surprised, she also hoped that this person wouldn't be unhappy and throw her away. If he had to rely on him now, he could only do so. He was in a bad mood.

However, in the next moment, a flash of surprise appeared in her eyes. The thing in her left hand ?

A blood-red ring, what looked like a piece of blood-red jade, how could she have such a thing? A possibility flashed through her mind, but it made her feel like her heart was in turmoil. Could it be that the man helped her put it on? What was the use? Wearing it on her ring finger, didn't that make it impossible for her to find a boyfriend?

"What's wrong?" Feeling the uneasiness of the person in his embrace, Sikong Qingqing asked arrogantly, "Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

"Ah, no." He carefully hid the item on his palm. If he wasn't mistaken, that ring's design was very similar to that bracelet, but he couldn't be sure. He would only know when he returned. But there really was nothing inside. Then what about his father's corpse and the person that was rumored to have been found all those years ago? Was it all ruined?

"Almost there." Thinking that she was anxious to see those things, Sikong Qingqing quickened his pace. Su Jin's smile was not heavy. In his eyes, it was not strenuous at all. However, the people who saw him laughing with Su Jin were astonished. When the people from the Sikong Family saw Su Jin who was being hugged by Sikong Qing, they were very surprised. However, those who came out from the archaeological institute on the other side and were interested in Su Jin revealed a face of disappointment.

"Right, where did you find me?" She scanned the bustling crowd, her excellent eyesight allowed her to see the things below a few meters, the items from nineteen years ago were no longer there, and the long stone steps that used to be the entrance to the hall were now flat ground, the door of the hall had also become a piece of sand, not a single trace of the ruins.

As archaeologists, they studied the plan and thought that it might sink. They then probed deeper into the soil and found that it was just sand. The stone buildings, which used to be a vast hall, were now devoid of anything.

It was as if he had disappeared into thin air. Nineteen years ago, the ephemeral stone palace had nothing left. She looked at the wasteland and suddenly wondered if the place she had fallen into was really here.

"What exactly did you discover last night?" Sikong Qingfeng did not think that there was a need to hide Su Jin's smile at the moment. However, the person in his arms only smiled and slowly said: "What? Like a very strange dream, I fell into a very deep trap and then I didn't know anything. " However, it wasn't a fracture, but a dislocated body. This was too much of a coincidence. Did she have to say it?

"Then you didn't discover anything. It was just a trap. How deep was it?"

It must be very deep. At that time, I was in a rush and whoever tried to find those items fell before I could find a safe place to land.

"Someone put you on it." "If no one had pulled her out, no one would have been able to come out from that deep place. But who is that person?" This is the place, the person I wanted to save won't let you stay at the place where you fell, but that person is so familiar with this place, could it be a tomb robber? "

"Tomb robbing?" Ye Zichen laughed. That person didn't just steal the tomb, he also stole people. How could she not know how she had been pushed and in such an indecent way? She vowed to find that man. As long as he appeared before her, she wouldn't let him escape. The person she, Su Jin, remembered with a smile was not that easy to escape from, even if she couldn't see that man's face clearly.

The smell of a person was not so easy to change, so she believed that person would appear again. With the ring on her finger, she would definitely catch that person. At that time, she would not be polite.

"Yeah, other than the tomb robbers, who else could it be?"

"How many were there last night?" She looked at the yellow sand in front of her. After a night, the wind had completely destroyed her footprints. She could no longer find the original tracks, nor was she able to find the place by relying on its smell. In the darkness, who could tell the direction?

"It's just one. They said that the person they are chasing is over 1.6m. Isn't that you?"

"That's right, that's right. It's me. I felt that I was following the right path, but I didn't expect that I would be heading in the wrong direction ?" "No, against the wind, faster." The mountain winds would move according to a certain pattern, and now it was really dusk, bringing with it the smell of sand and dust. Su Jin smiled. "To the east."

Sikong Qingqing proudly carried her and turned around. Along the way, they were both breathing in and out, causing Su Jin's forehead to ache slightly. She really wasn't familiar with this person, but what was so natural about it?
