Chapter Seventy-Five: Entering the Kingdom of Gus

Sandstorms in the wilderness of Arsa last for five months, with each sandstorm lasting from three days to a month, but each time the storm stops for fifteen days.

Every storm must be fifteen days apart.

These fifteen days are the most safe period for moving around the oasis.

No one knows why, but these laws of the Arsa wilderness have not changed for thousands of years.

The sandstorm that Tang Dou encountered was still the first sandstorm of the entire sandstorm period, and it often didn't last long, and after seven days, the sandstorm stopped, and everyone in Dusa Ayla Seven Shelter immediately packed up their belongings and set off.

This time, Tang Dou and the others acted together with the Gus caravan.

Previously, because of Tang Dou's promotion, Lawrence had decided to buy all of Tang Dou's bamboo rice.

There are only one hundred catties of bamboo rice (Tang Dou only took out so much, he wants to sell bamboo rice for noodles and luxury goods), and a hundred slaves can be exchanged for one catty. After experiencing the big discounts of the previous "goods", Tang Dou's real blood basin is waiting here.

But Lawrence only hesitated for a moment and agreed.

Lawrence is well aware. For those lords and lords of the Seven Great Powers and the Ten Great Lords, the only pursuit of their lives is excitement, refinement, and comparison.

Their power is quite stable, and their strength has not been able to improve by leaps and bounds. The wilderness of Arsa is their sanctuary and their cage.

So, what do they have to enjoy?

What do they have to pursue?

In fact, in any place, any race, unless it has really been completely rationalized, in the end, what is pursued is the word "interesting".

What the elves find interesting is the pursuit of art and romance. What the demon clan finds interesting is the pursuit of strength and glory. As for human beings, they have everything they want, and the most easily infective thing is the life of drunken money.

Both elves and demons have to admit that when it comes to pleasure and tossing, they can't compare to humans.

The most touching masterpieces are written by human beings, the most chilling evil of human nature is the outbreak of human beings, the most inspiring hope is human beings, and the most can make people see the despair of the world is also human beings.

Humans are such a complex race. And any race that has been with them for a long time will also be affected.

This is also the reason why the elves and demons will separate the large number of humans who come to their continent. Unlike the Nine Howls Continent, they don't care where the elves and demons live.

Elves and demons need human culture, art, knowledge, and tools, but they are afraid of human corruption.

The reason why the hybrids of humans, elves and demons have always been in a somewhat awkward position is that the hybrids are more likely to be infected with some bad habits of humans.

And the wilderness of Arsa is where the elves deal with all those who are not popular with them. As long as the humans who have not directly contributed to the elves (all of them have taken refuge in the Heavenly Wind Continent), half-bloods who have broken the law (whether they are half-elves or half-demons), and even elves who have committed serious crimes but have not yet reached the level of betrayal, they will all be driven to the Arsa Wilderness.

Over time, the people of the Arsa wilderness have multiplied and formed an independent cultural sphere.

Here, based on the social form of human beings, with more violence and barbarism, it eventually becomes such a wild place.

Since it is based on the form of human society, it is conceivable what the lords and lords of the country who are idle will pursue.

Lawrence can become one of the caravan leaders of the Gus Kingdom, naturally he has his unique vision, he knows very well how much fashion trend such a thing as bamboo rice will cause, not to mention that he originally wanted to win over Tang Dou, with such an opportunity and excuse, it is even more important to seize.

So in seven days, Lawrence relied on his eloquence to get closer to Tang Dou, and the two sides looked like old friends for many years.

However, Lin Xiao finally gave an accurate definition of these two people.

Two guys with their own ghosts.

Tang Dou's plan is very simple, that is, to use the wind of the Gusi country to confront the Sand Tooth country, if he can provoke the battle between the Gusi country and the Sand Tooth country, of course it is better, even if he can't, he doesn't mind but makes a lot of wind and rain. Anyway, his purpose is to muddy the waters, and then fish in troubled waters.

Fifteen days was not enough time to get from Dusa Ella VII to the country of Gus, which would take at least a month, so they had to stop again when it came time to get to the next oasis. No one knew when the second sandstorm would come fifteen days later, and no one dared to risk their luck.

Fifteen days have passed, and hiding in an oasis is the smartest thing to do.

God seemed to be helping Tang Dou and them, and didn't let Tang Dou and them wait long, and on the third day after arriving at the oasis, the sandstorm came again, this time for another ten days, and then stopped.

This time, they were able to take advantage of the gap to reach the country of Gus.

After so many days, there have been a lot more outputs in the Source of Life space, especially Aunt Mi finally found the artificial cultivation method of the Doji, with a large number of Doji, Sha Yunyue has developed a batch of new injury medicines, which have excellent results in dealing with external injuries.

The main thing is that the cost is cheap, and the cost of the injury medicine with the doji as the main medicine is three to five times cheaper compared to other injury drugs with the same effect. This means that this high-grade wound medicine can be distributed to his soldiers in batches, ensuring the survival rate of these soldiers on the battlefield.

Everyone knows that what is really easy to die on the battlefield is not the killing on the spot, but the infection and ulceration of the wound after the injury.

The injury medicine of the Doji not only has an excellent anti-inflammatory effect, but also has a good effect on hemostasis and muscle building. Sha Yunyue is quite fond of Doji now, and she wants to use this thing as a holy medicine for trauma.

Another piece of news made Tang Doudu quite surprised, a month ago, Zhou Fatpang sent an expedition team to explore the situation in the Source of Life space. Although Tang Dou had now mastered many uses of the Source of Life space, even including spatial movement in the space, he still had very little understanding of the entire space.

The Source of Life space is a complex place, and there are many relics left by dragons in it, which need to be explored.

And Zhou Fatpang was instructed by Tang Dou to send out the right exploration.

And a month after the departure of this exploration team, just when Tang Dou and they had just made the second oasis, there was a good news that surprised Tang Dou.

They actually found coal and iron ore in the Source of Life space.

In Tang Dou's original imagination, the source of life space should be a huge subspace, just like a space bag, the whole space is like a huge cave, after all, although the source of life space has day and night, but in fact, there is no sun and moon, it is just that the canopy automatically corresponds to the sky outside to glow and darken.

Therefore, Tang Dou always thought that the Source of Life space was a huge cave, and in the cave, because of the existence of life energy, there were those lives, and he never thought that such a thing as mineral deposits could be found in this place.

But in fact, it was.

This made Tang Dou have to start thinking about what kind of existence the Source of Life Space was.

Or, is it really another world?

But if that's the case, why couldn't the dragon clan develop in the Source of Life space back then?

Tang Dou asked the pig this question, but the answer he got was:

Think for yourself!

It seems that the tsundere beast has become more and more simple since Tang Dou began to develop a new workshop in the Source of Life space. I don't know what she and Qiqi are doing every day, but it doesn't seem to be angry with herself, because every time she greets the other party, the other party will still take care of herself, and if it is about cultivation, she will also patiently guide her, but what about other aspects......

Don't mention it.

After such an astonishing discovery, Tang Dou began to have a new plan, on the one hand, let the exploration team continue to explore the west, preparing to explore the entire west after completely exploring it, and then enter other directions.

At the same time, he asked Zhou Fatpang to prepare manpower to mine the two mineral deposits, but instead of asking for speed, he asked to slow down, and he still had some things he wanted to experiment.

The number of people in the new workshop is already more than 5,000 people, and the hundreds of slaves that Lawrence gave him before have been put into Tang Dou.

This slut asked Ah Bao and Lin Xiao to find a sanddigger near the route, and then used Ah Bao's natural ability to lure it over, let the sanddigger attack the caravan, and then took advantage of the chaos to load more than a thousand people into it.

Where can Lawrence see through the truth, at that time, his flesh hurt so much that he almost fainted. Although his "goods" did not lose too much, in order to win over Tang Dou, after finding out that Tang Dou had "suffered heavy losses", he offered to compensate Tang Dou, so Tang Dou had more than 500 more slaves. Happy slut plans to do it again.

However, he still knows the bottom line, if he is attacked by a sandworm once, it will be unlucky, if it is twice in a row, even if Lawrence can't react, when it comes to this matter later, someone will always react, so these days Tang Dou is always thinking about how to put people in it reasonably.

Because there are more than 5,000 people. Therefore, in addition to the exploration teams sent out, there are more than 3,000 people who can become good seedlings of warriors, and more than 1,000 teams can be pulled out by those who line up to repair houses, farm, graze, and open mines.

Zhou asked the more than 1,000 people to build new residences near the two mineral deposits, and at the same time find a way to establish a stable transportation line between the mineral deposits and the new workshop (the spatial movement in the Source of Life space is not used to pull goods). These preliminary actions were all repeatedly explained by Tang Dou.

Tang Dou actually just wanted to seek stability, and at the same time wanted to leave time for some of his experiments. But in the slaves...... No, in the eyes of the new Workshopman, this is the love that the great Master Nicholas loved them.

So they were full of energy, and Tang Dou gave them twenty days to establish the time to establish in advance, and they were stunned to finish it in thirteen days. This is all the result of Zhou Fatpang's repeated requests to slow down.

I have to say that the slaves who have just been liberated are still very down-to-earth, but they don't know how long they can be steady as the good days continue.

However, Tang Dou is not worried about this, with the old elf Klein in charge, he is not worried about the problem of people's hearts.

Taking a step back, even Klein can't hold it down, the Source of Life space is also under his absolute control, who would dare to oppose it?

It was another ten days of trekking, and then I finally arrived in the country of Gus.

As the most powerful of the seven countries in the Inner Ring, the Gusi Kingdom naturally has their advantage, that is, they have the largest oasis in the Inner Ring. The size of this oasis even gave Tang Dou the feeling of returning to Anduma.

Although there is no Cheongluo River that runs slowly and continuously in Anduma, the Gus Oasis in the country of Gusi has a desert lake that is no less than Cheongna Lake.

No one knows how such a huge desert oasis could have been formed without a surface river, but it was formed, opened for thousands of years, and if nothing else, it will continue to exist.

Because having the largest oasis means having the largest growing area and water source, and the largest growing area and water source means the most food and drinking water, which means the largest population.

With a large population base, the country of Gusi also has the largest army.

This is the strength of the country of Gus.

Among the seven great powers in the inner ring, only the Gusi country has the domineering power to claim that it can fight against any two countries and join forces!

Of course, no matter how strong the Gusi country is, it will at most tie any two countries join forces, and if they want to add one more country, they will also have to lie down, so although it is the most powerful, the Gusi country has no way to take the other six countries. After all, the other six countries are not stupid, if they really let the Gus country eat the other countries one by one, then in the end, no matter who is left, it will be a dead end.

The same principle naturally applies to the other six countries, so the seven countries in the inner ring have always maintained a delicate balance. Although several countries with the lowest power have changed over the millennium, the situation of the G-7 has never changed.

Although the inner ring is experiencing the great battle between the Kadesa Collar and the Tiger Shadow Collar, it has not affected the territory of the Gus Country, and everything in the Gus Country is extremely peaceful, and it is impossible to imagine the barbarism and bloodiness here for a while.

Then, Tang Dou and the others saw the slaves who were hanging everywhere.

Not long after entering the border of the Gusi Kingdom, Tang Dou saw the slave stakes and cages everywhere. The condemned slaves were hung from stakes, locked in cages, each dying, or simply a corpse.

Almost every place that resembles a square will have dozens of piles or cages. There are also many on both sides of some roads. Tang Dou frowned when he saw such a miserable appearance, and even Ellie and Morion, who were already considered natives of Arsa, couldn't bear it.

Occasionally, some slaves would cast stares when Tang Dou and they passed by, but Tang Dou could not see fear or joy in the eyes of those slaves, and some were only numb. (To be continued.) )
