Chapter 157: G. Guzhen
The endless Gobi Desert is full of gravel, rolling or still.
When Zou Xuan first set foot here, he almost decided that there was only fine sand and gravel here. However, when he squinted his eyes and looked around, he could barely find a few sparse plants ruthlessly dotted across the sky.
The ancient town of G, a town with a history of thousands of years, has experienced glory, but now it has fallen down, leaving only endless vicissitudes here......
The Grey Mist Desert is constantly expanding, and at the same time, it is constantly changing the geography around it.
What was once a town of the town stood in a forest full of life, but now it is a desert......
Perhaps in many years, this place will also be swallowed up by the Gray Fog Desert, and no one can say whether this ancient town will become a part of history and gradually forgotten, or whether it will continue to stand here.
Zou Xuan followed the guidance of the mission and came to this ancient town on the border of the Gray Mist Desert. Now his first task is to meet the mayor of the town.
Step out of the teleportation stone henge made of huge stones, and the surrounding area is empty! Zou Xuan couldn't help but turn around and glance at the teleportation stone formation behind him, the erosion wind had left patches of mottled marks on these boulders, and there was nothing else to pay attention to.
"Strange." Zou Xuan muttered in a low voice: "Let me go to copy the ancient town, but where is the town?" ”
Zou Xuan didn't see the so-called town, and in an instant he thought of the teleportation accidents that had occurred many times!
"Could it be that this time it was in the wrong place? No, this time I did get out of the teleportation stone smoothly, right? ”
Zou Xuan was curious, and opened the map to confirm his location.
He soon found his place, and at the same time he found the ancient town of G. The ancient town of G appears on the same map, about five kilometers away! In the map, five kilometers is not too far, but if you have to walk on two legs, it is not a short distance!
"Damn, it's wrong again!" Zou Xuan complained.
But he soon found out that nothing had gone wrong on the trip! Because at this moment, the teleportation stone array where Zou Xuan is located is called the teleportation array of the ancient town!
In other words, unlike the previous two villages, this ancient town did not build the teleportation stone henge in the city, but chose to build it five kilometers away from the town, where birds don't!
"Why is this happening?" Zou Xuan had the urge to cry.
The first two teleportations failed, but this time when encountering this crappy teleportation point, it was unexpectedly successful! What an irony!!
With a sigh, Zou Xuan began to follow the guidance of the map and walked in the direction of the ancient town!
It took about twenty minutes, and Zou Xuan finally came to the outside of the ancient town.
The scale of the ancient town is not large, but after all, it is still some grade higher than the previous desert village and gray fog village, which are surrounded by wood.
The entire ancient town of G is protected by a stone wall, and the materials of the wall are the same as the boulders of the teleportation array five kilometers away, but some of these walls in front of you are also the same dilapidated, and some are new! It's like a new build.
Outside the ancient town, two heavily armed soldiers were leaning against the door snoring and resting at the moment, and between the two soldiers was a wooden door composed of two heavy wooden planks, both of which were in a half-open state, revealing the width of a wooden door, about five meters away.
Zou Xuan looked at the two guards who were lazy, and before thinking about going in, should he report it?
Zou Xuan was afraid that if he broke in casually, he would cause some misunderstandings, but he was worried that disturbing them would affect the rest of the two officials, which would make it even more unpleasant!
Scratching his head, Zou Xuan slowly approached the city gate. Suddenly, one of the soldiers suddenly opened his closed eyes, and a pair of eyes locked Zou Xuan fiercely, but soon the eyes calmed down again, and then slowly closed again!
This move seems to have become a reminder to allow Zou Xuan to pass. Zou Xuan strode towards the town with confidence, but in his heart he was feeling the vigilance of these soldiers!
Walking into the town, there are neat streets, lined with houses of different architectural styles. Generally, the style of dilapidated houses looks more quaint. The new one is a bit more concise.
The whole town seemed quiet and not noisy at all. There were no children frolicking in the streets, and no beggars asking for food. Only the only soldiers in armor would pass by on the street, but these guys usually had serious faces and didn't smile!
Zou Xuan had the courage to stop a serious soldier, and asked timidly in the face of the other party's slightly terrifying gaze: "That...... Brother soldier, where is the mayor? My map, ahaha...... I seem to have a problem with this map, it just doesn't show the mayor's location. ”
After Zou Xuan finished saying these words, he felt that his back was wet. However, after hearing Zou Xuan's distress, this soldier actually said that he took the initiative to take Zou Xuan to see the mayor!
I really didn't expect that although these soldiers looked terrible, they were surprisingly easy to get along with!
Along the way, the people Zou Xuan met were all soldiers! This made Zou Xuan puzzled, how could he have seen some children playing on the street, right? Could it be that there are no children in this town at all?
Zou Xuan wanted to ask clearly several times, but the words finally stopped. "Forget it, it's better to have more than one thing!"
Under the guidance of the kind soldiers, Zou Xuan met the mayor!
The mayor is a middle-aged man who is also dressed in armor, but unlike those fierce soldiers, the mayor is quite elegant in appearance and demeanor, full of intellectuality, and quite a Confucian general!
"Welcome to the ancient town of G. The mayor greeted Zou Xuan with a smile, and Zou Xuan immediately responded politely to the other party under the leadership of the mayor.
"Hello! This is the letter that the desert village chief has entrusted me to bring to you. ”
Zou Xuan handed the letter from the desert village chief to the mayor of the ancient town, and after the mayor opened the letter and quickly skimmed it, he nodded with a smile.
I saw that while he received the letter, he motioned for the kind soldier to leave. Then he faced Zou Xuan and said with a smile: "The desert village chief said that you are a talent. Well, that's good! It is indeed a talent! ”
Of course, Zou Xuan knew that the mayor's remarks were just polite.
Although Zou Xuan didn't know what was written in the letter, he thought of the bitter and hateful expression of the desert village chief before he came. I knew that the mayor in front of me needed help!
"Is there anything I can do to help?" Zou Xuan got straight to the point, thinking that only in this way could he receive the task, complete the task, and get paid!
The mayor smiled with satisfaction when he heard Zou Xuan's inquiry. "We really need your help!"
