Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
There was a crisp sound of "click", and the "stone skin" on the surface of Rick's body that lasted for a long night slowly shattered, and large patches of earthy yellow stone foam and cotton wool were scattered and scattered.
Rick looked at the earthy yellow stream that slowly seeped into the ground, his eyes full of regret.
If there is a good earth-based meditation method, Rick's mana purification and compression work can be at least twice as efficient.
Exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, a large amount of earth element residue, accompanied by breathing, formed a yellow column of air.
After getting dressed, everyone was almost up and running.
Wade Sr. prepares the food, while Chubby and Rick make up the tent and salute.
During the meal, Rick asked about Chubby and the black-robed girl's plans.
Xiaopang has lost a lot of weight in the past few days, and his eyes have become calm: "After I go back with my sister, I plan to sell those properties immediately, and then leave 'good and come again' and return to the Wusi Empire to develop." ”
Although the "good again" side is known as gold everywhere, not everyone can easily gain a foothold there.
Without their father's protection, the two sisters and brothers have lost their greatest support. And the last payment, the death compensation of those guards is everywhere where the money is used.
Without the protection of force, his father's connections collapsed overnight. They don't want to be rich now, they just want to sell those properties safely.
The black-robed goddess was cold, as if she had grown up overnight, with a little more responsibility and courage as an eldest sister.
After eating and drinking, the people went on the road again.
The destination of the crowd this time is the Monte Copper Plate City, which is only a day's journey from here.
"Good again" is made up of several large city-states. The most basic copper plate city, the intermediate silver tower city, and the advanced gold coin city
This division is calculated based on population and economy. When the tax reaches a certain amount, it can be upgraded to the lowest level of Copper Plate City, then Silver Tower City, and so on.
The name is vulgar, but it makes it clear that the city is hierarchical and economic.
In "Good Again", except for the lord of the city, who is a nobleman, the rest are merchants.
The status of the businessman, in the "Good Again" business alliance, has reached the extreme.
In the same way, the merchant class is distinguished by the vulgar copper plate and silver thaler, that is, the tong guò class, which can clearly know the financial status of the other party.
The father of Chubby and the black-robed girl is the merchant of the Silver Tower. In the city of Monte Copper Plate, a large number of properties have been purchased. Similarly, from an obscure small businessman, climbing to this step, the chubby father must have paid a lot, and he must have formed a lot of grievances.
That's why the two of them want to deal with the industry immediately and leave the place of right and wrong as soon as possible
The desert gradually showed a hint of brown, some drought-tolerant shrubs and grasses.
Under the hoof prints of horses and beasts, there are sand marks that look like folds, which have been blown out by continuous storms all year round.
The dark red mottled Gobi has traces of time. Large expanses of exposed rock are littered with cracks and gaps.
The desert is gradually replaced by dry and solid yellow earth, and there is a little more life around it. Scattered brown plants dot the borders of the Satsuma Desert, waiting for the next rainy season.
Beyond the Gobi, on the horizon, the outline of a village gradually appeared.
The earthy yellow village wall is low and thick. The lack of repairs throughout the year makes them look redundant and functional.
Rows of tall desert plants shield the yellow sand from the invasion and bring a touch of coolness to the villagers.
The whole village is a little dry and decadent. It's so close to the desert that it's largely unfrequented except for those who are willing to take risks.
Finally stepped on the ground, and both Old Wade and Chubby secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Even though they have a lot of experience, even if they know that they are only a day's journey, the desert scenery is so vast that it makes people desperately breathless.
Only when you actually leave the desert can you be safe.
After a short rest, everyone shook off the wind and sand on their bodies, rode horses and beasts, and came to the front of the village.
A few bare-bottomed, runny little children were chasing and playing with each other, and when they saw a few people coming, they immediately ran to the village in fright.
Before everyone really entered the village, several middle-aged men who were cleanly dressed and energetic greeted them with smiling faces: "Welcome visitors from afar, our Palm Village has not been so lively for a long time!" The other party's unconventional enthusiasm made Rick and the others look sideways slightly.
Especially Lao Wade, who has an experienced businessman, his face was a little heavy, and he lowered his voice and said: "These people are too enthusiastic, everyone be careful!" ”
It is the only village within two days. When the professor left, Rick didn't think there was any danger and gave him most of the supplies, not expecting this to happen.
In the end, everyone followed the well-dressed and energetic middle-aged men into the village.
The whole village was lifeless, depressed and decadent, and filled with an eerie atmosphere.
In every village, the doors and windows of the houses are tightly closed. Only a pair of bright green eyes were revealed, looking straight at Rick and the others.
A few men were fine, but the black-robed woman trembled and hid behind Rick, her hands clutching Rick's shirt.
Several men were warmly entertaining Rick and the others, and a young man with a pale face and a cold sweat on his face suddenly ran over in a hurry. A few people whispered a few words, and their faces suddenly changed greatly.
The enthusiastic smiles on the faces of several people, like snowflakes that encountered the scorching sun, disappeared in an instant, and there was a hint of killing intent in their eyes with a little green: "You are not welcome here, please leave immediately!" ”
The attitude changed very stiffly, and many thin and swarthy villagers around them, armed with various weapons, also quietly surrounded them.
Rick stared for a moment, and immediately hurried out of the strange village with the group.
Xiao Fat left the village, and immediately collapsed on the back of the horse, with a look of the rest of his life: "It's scared to death, have you seen it?" Those villagers have green eyes, is there something wrong with them?! ”
Old Wade was more steady, wrinkled his head, and muttered: "Regardless of whether we are sick or not, we would rather be thirsty and hungry than go back to replenish supplies." ”
Only Rick frowned deeply, looking thoughtful. There are too many secrets and knowledge in his head, and Rick has only partially analyzed and understood them.
"@#¥%%¥" A burst of whispers like thousands of people whispered together, full of inexplicable majesty, slowly coming from the dilapidated village.
Rick was stunned for a moment, and then a gleam flashed in his eyes!
"Someone actually promoted?!"
Rick looked at the village from afar, still dilapidated, but wrapped in a layer of bright yellow mist, revealing a touch of majesty.
Rick has just experienced these some time ago, and they are very familiar, and they are the "abyss test".
