Silk Road 15
The way to the Rakshasa Country and the Western Liang Women's Country is actually where the first oasis is separated, one goes to the west, the other goes south, the West Liang Women's Country goes west, and the Rakshasa Country goes south. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Because the Rakshasa country is closer to the desert, where it is more desolate and barren, but the Rakshasa country produces one thing that makes the people in the upper echelons of the Rakshasa country richer than other countries, and that thing is the ghost bead.
The ghost bead is the name of the Rakshasa country, but it is not this name outside, and it is called the ghost Buddha bead outside.
A ghost Buddha bead can make a person's debt for a year, and it is better for people to be reincarnated in the next life, so the price is very high, and it is generally good for a commoner to buy one in his lifetime.
On the way, Zhiwei learned through a conversation with Mo Mujie that the business they did was to bring the ghost Buddha beads to other countries to sell, of course, because the price of the ghost Buddha beads was too high, their caravan only bought a few, and the rest of the remaining money was used to sell other ordinary goods.
Zhiwei didn't understand what the ghost Buddha bead was, but he learned a news through Mo Mujie's words, that is, the ghost Buddha bead was lost, maybe he can't say that, it should be said that the ghost Buddha bead was lost with the leader.
However, these things have nothing to do with the current situation, right? Although the ghost Buddha beads are very useful, they are not a strange thing, the Rakshasa country has at least tens of thousands of ghost Buddha beads circulating in the market every year, there are so many ghost Buddha beads, how can people set up such a big battle to harm these people.
Zhiwei denied his own speculation, but did not completely dismiss his other speculations.
At this time, the heavenly more and more were already hanging high, but half of them were eaten by the tengu, but they did not appear, as if the moon was really eaten by the tengu, but how could Zhiwei believe that the moon was really eaten by the tengu, if there was really such a powerful tengu, then would humans still be alive.
Therefore, Zhiwei looked at Mo Mujie quietly, he wanted to see what would happen here.
Unsurprisingly, the next day there was a decrease in the number of people, but this time only one person was lost, and that person was not from his own caravan, but just a small merchant. And even his goods were lost, so no one suspected that something had happened or that Timber was trying to kill others.
But Zhiwei and the others knew that the small merchant had really disappeared, not that he had left the team, because the small merchant's things had been disposed of by Temutu.
Did it happen? They gathered together again, since it happened, then let's face it, Temutu looked at them with a solemn expression, and said: "I don't hide it from everyone, everyone knows that there is a person who disappeared today, and that person disappeared completely. As for the reason, everyone knows the reason, what to do now. ”
After Temutu finished speaking, the audience was silent for a while, and someone asked, 'Then, are we still going to follow the same path?' Or continue on the path set yesterday? ’
"I won't say anything, my life is my own, vote, I won't stop you if anyone wants to go." Temutu said with a deep groan.
"Okay."
"Okay."
Everyone immediately agreed, since everyone didn't know how to choose, the best vote was the best.
Soon, two teams of people were divided, one team was led by Temutu, they chose to go to the Rakshasa country, there were about a dozen or so people, and some of them chose to go to the next oasis according to the original plan, but this part of the number is not much, just a few, as for the rest of the people, except for Zhiwei and the three of them, the rest have their own plans.
Temutu first looked at Zhiwei and them, then he looked at the people who had not yet voted, and asked, "Haven't you chosen yet?" Either way, we're about to go, and if we don't, we'll probably have to abandon you. ”
Those people said: 'I haven't thought about it yet, after all, this is a matter related to my own life, so I should think about it for a long time.' ’
Temutu nodded and said, "I understand, you can choose before we leave, I guess we will have to delay a little time." ”
After speaking, he looked at Zhiwei and them again, as if waiting for them to choose.
Zhiwei thought about it, but smiled and said, "Let's choose not to leave, and wait here where we are." ’
Everyone is puzzled, how can they wait for death here.
"Zhiwei, you better choose one, it's not a good choice to wait for death here." Temutu persuaded.
Zhiwei shook his head and said: "You see, we have divided into two teams here, and these two teams are in different directions, then, you only have two results, one, one of the teams is safe, two teams are not safe, as for why there are only these two, in fact, you are all betting, that vision can only affect one team of people or affect two teams of people, if the first one, then one of you wins, and the second one loses." ”
"But if we don't go, there's a third outcome, which is that at least two teams are safe. In terms of probability, the number of people surviving has increased. ”
Temutu was puzzled and asked, "If you don't leave, no matter what happens, you will still be killed in the end."
Zhiwei smiled slightly and said, "Who said we wouldn't leave?" It's just that it's slower than you, after you set off, we will set off in three days, so no matter what the result is, as long as it's not the second way, we're safe, of course, it's not 100%, it's still to bet that one of your roads is safe, if it's right, you'll live, and if you're wrong, you'll die. ”
The people in the tent were dizzy by Zhiwei's words, but they still understood, Zhiwei still had to choose a way to go in the end, so wouldn't it be back to the beginning? Is there something wrong with this, everyone thinks.
However, the situation was too tense, and it was almost noon now, and if they didn't leave here, then the devil knows what would happen.
Therefore, the others did not think anything more, and immediately began to separate the goods and the camels, and when they were all ready, the sun had come to noon, that is, at twelve o'clock, and at this time, after they had eaten a good meal, they parted sadly, and they knew, and did not know who would survive to the end.
Who is not sad, knowing that they are going to die, everyone will be sad.
Zhiwei watched him leave, but he didn't feel sad at all, sadness was not for him, maybe he would be sad for his relatives and friends, but these people were just passers-by in his life, not even friends, how could he be sad.
After they walked away, Zhiwei turned to look at the crying Mo Mujie and asked, "Why don't you leave?" ”
Mo Mujie wiped the tears from his face and said, "I want to change." ”
Zhiwei nodded, he knew that Mo Mujie didn't want to go through those things again.
