Chapter Ninety-Four: The Great Sandstorm
Su Ling'er shook her head and said, "My dad has been taking troops at the border recently, so he won't be there now. ”
I forgot this, once when I was chatting with Li Xue, Li Xue told me that we and Su Ling'er's family backgrounds are similar, and we are both military families.
Just like my father has been at the border in the past few years, it is unlikely that Su Linger's father will stay in the rear safely.
I asked, confused, "Your father is not here, how can you go to see him?"
I remember more clearly than anyone else that Su Ling'er came to see her father, and I don't know what the situation is now, I usually don't bother to care about this kind of thing, but today I always want to ask for clarification.
Su Ling'er was not impatient, but replied with a smile: "We will pass by there when the Tiger People and Warring States leave us and go to the Elven Forest." It's just that I don't know what our luck is, but there are often sandstorms on the way to the Tiger People Warring States. If the sandstorm is bigger, we don't know how long it will last. ”
As soon as Su Ling'er's voice fell, my face changed.
Even after so many years, Su Ling'er's impression of the poisoned milk left on me has not weakened in the slightest.
I quickly opened the window and looked outside.
Well, the weather is not bad, the wind is mild, even the clouds are rare, it is a good sunny day.
And even in the desert, the temperature is not very high, and with the roof of the carriage blocking the sun, people like me who can't cultivate don't feel very uncomfortable.
I was relieved to see this.
It may be that Su Ling'er's poisoned milk has been cured, otherwise according to the previous words, the sandstorm should have risen now.
In such a short period of time, my facial expressions have changed quite a lot, and Su Ling'er, who has been looking at me, inevitably asked suspiciously, "Lotte, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine, just look at the scenery outside. ”
I quickly replied.
Su Linger's poisonous milk attribute is one of Su Linger's anger points, and I am not so stupid as to expose my thoughts.
Thanks to Su Linger, this girl is still easy to deceive, I casually said that she believed it, and following my words Su Linger continued: "The scenery of the desert is very monotonous. But the dangers of the desert are not monotonous. The calmer the weather in the desert, the more dangerous it is, and if it's cloudless and not very hot, then there will definitely be sandstorms. ”
Wait, wait, wait?
Combined with Su Linger's words just now, plus everything I just saw.......
Outside the car, the voice of the tiger man from before suddenly sounded: "Envoys of the Human Federation, there will be a small sandstorm ahead that will affect our speed, please don't panic." ”
Shall I it?
And it came true.
I looked at Su Ling'er with a strange expression, thinking to myself, maybe this girl didn't just do her work when I wasn't paying attention, right?
To be honest, I've been researching for a few years, and I've rarely seen Su Linger's feat when she was doing her best, is this poisoned milk still a skill?
Seeing my expression and my previous reaction, Su Ling'er knew that I was weird no matter how unresponsive I was.
Sure enough, as I expected, Su Linger's face suddenly became extremely strange, and I saw Su Ling'er turn her back all of a sudden, and said excitedly: "Lotte! Why are you like this? You were infected by Li Xue's dead girl, right?"
I don't know if I was infected by Li Xue or not, but Su Linger's poisonous milk skills are indeed very strong.
It's just that now that my emotional intelligence is low, I won't continue this topic, so I quickly changed the topic and said: "Ling'er, the sandstorms of the Tiger People and the Warring States are so frequent, so how do the Tiger People farm the land?"
If it is a man, he must eat, and if he eats, he must eat grain, and if he grows food out of the ground.
It's a simple truth.
For a person, his most basic needs are food and water.
If there is no food, then who is still entangled in what spiritual and cultural needs.
If you make a connection between the relationship between civilians and the government, then for civilians, it is "I can't eat enough, you are not good".
I don't know much about the history of this world.
But in my last life, I didn't read much history in China, and I looked at the rebellions in Chinese history. Every rebellion in the base mountain was accompanied by the appearance of famine.
For a government, its most basic job is to ensure that every one of its citizens can have enough to eat.
If the government is compared to fish and civilians are water, if the fish does not feed the water, then don't blame the water for suffocating you as a fish.
It's a simple truth.
I still know a little about the population of the Tiger People Warring States, although there are not as many as humans, but there are still nearly 100 million people in the country.
In this bad weather, what do they rely on to feed this little 100 million people?
Farming?
To be honest, I've seen rice that can be grown in saline soil, but I haven't heard of a crop that can be grown in the desert.
Changing the topic is changing the topic, and I'm quite interested in this question.
After listening to me, Su Ling'er turned around and replied with a look of knowing you: "Of course there is a way." If you want to survive in the desert, then no one can compare to the tiger people. Just like Rakuten you created a spiritual product, the tiger people also have a magic that allows crops to ripen and eat in a day in order to survive in the desert. It's just that although the food cooked with this magic can be eaten, it can provide less than half of the energy to the human body compared to real food, and the taste is also very poor, so no one wants to eat this thing until the crisis. ”
Sure enough, whether it is a tiger man or a human, it is not a role that can be handled casually.
It's like this kind of magic that can ripen quickly in a day, I don't even know about it, I haven't even heard of it.
Although Su Linger said that this magic has such and such problems, the practicality of this magic cannot be denied.
If I can, I would like to let the magicians within Kangxiao Company learn this magic, so that in the future, Kangxiao Company can have a team dedicated to solving natural disasters.
Doing business must not fall in the eyes of money, and the charity that should be done must still be done.
Since ancient times, it has been a big business, and the bigger the business, the more jealous others will be. If the mentality of jealousy spreads rapidly, then no matter how big a company is, it will be discredited.
If a company does not have a reputation, then the company is really not far from going out of business.
If you want to solve this problem, the best way is to do charity, charity on a large scale.
I make a lot of money, but I also donate the money I earn, such a conscientious enterprise will naturally be respected, and then the business will only get better and better.
And the idea of setting up a disaster relief team like mine has something to do with the essence of Kangxiao.
Kangxiao Company is a private enterprise on the surface, but it is essentially the product of my cooperation with Long Jie. The reason why Long Jie let Kangxiao Company become bigger and stronger is entirely because Kangxiao Company plays an extremely benign role in the Human Federation. And many things in Kangxiao Company are not for profit.
For example, the pillar industry of weapons manufacturing and marketing, my long-standing idea of arms export has been shelved until now, and all the weapons manufactured by Kangxiao Company are now supplied to the army, except for the weapons I left for myself and my friends.
According to Long Jie's words, Lingke weapons can be used by ordinary people, and if they are exported to civilians, then there will be many problems.
Like some gangsters, assassinations, shootings, it's too troublesome.
Although Lingke weapons are expensive, they can basically be obtained by anyone who wants to get them, and if they are exported, it will cause panic in society to a large extent.
It's like the ban on guns in China in my last life.
The ban on guns, coupled with the dedication of the police department, is why China is known as the safest country in the world.
With the experience of my previous life, I naturally support Long Jie's forward-looking statement. It's not that I'm thinking too much about it, I just want to say that Kangxiao Company is actually the second spokesperson for the government. There are many things that the government is not easy to come forward for, if Kangxiao Company comes forward, then the problem will be solved.
Like this group I want to start.
Now that the Human Federation does not have a special disaster relief team, if I am established, then I am also showing my attitude to Long Jie, so as to make Long Jie believe in me more, and he will be more inclined to my Kangxiao company in terms of policy.
Although friends should not be so calculating with each other, friends are never a reason to do whatever they want without punishment. Friends are mutual, you help me, you treat me well, then the friendship can naturally continue.
I nodded silently.
It's not just that magic like that, but I've got to find a way to get it.
As soon as I was about to open my mouth to speak, the voice of the tiger man outside sounded again: "Everyone be careful, the sandstorm is coming?"
What? The sandstorm is coming?
To be honest, I haven't seen a sandstorm look like.
I opened the window in front of the carriage, and I was greeted by a long stretch of yellow sand that seemed to be connected to the sky.
The weather was now overcast in an instant, and not only that, but the wind was also coming, and as soon as I opened the window, my hair was blown back by the wind.
This frightened me and I hurriedly closed the window.
In fact, I am still mentally prepared for the power of sandstorms, after all, I have watched various TV series and movies in my previous life, and I have never eaten pork, at least I have seen pigs run.
Another reason why I'm in such a hurry to close the windows is that there is too much sand!
Who said you can only eat sand if you are swept up in a sandstorm, I just opened the window and took a mouthful of sand directly into my mouth, and the first thing I did when I closed the window was all kinds of spitting.
The spiritual power on Su Linger's body flashed, and then Su Linger handed me a water bladder. I rinsed my mouth and said helplessly, "Is this sandstorm so bad? What are they going to do outside?"
Unlike me and Su Ling'er, whether it is the driver of this carriage or the soldiers who came to pick up people from the Tiger People and the Warring States, they are all outside, and under such a powerful sandstorm, they are probably really in danger of their lives.
But Su Ling'er shook her head and smiled: "Don't worry, they're fine." The tiger people have a special spirit weapon that can shield from sandstorms, this spirit weapon is simple to make and is very practical whether it is daily or combat, so basically all tiger people will carry such a spirit weapon when they go out. ”
Is there anything else going on?
As long as there are people, even the bad weather can't defeat people.
After listening to Su Ling'er, I was relieved, because of curiosity, I opened the window again, this time I didn't feel the wind as soon as I opened the window, and the first scene I saw when I opened the window was a slightly transparent magic barrier erected around us.
Seeing my window open, the tiger man who had been talking to me before said to me, "Please rest assured, we will set off when the sandstorm passes, and we will set off soon." ”
Seeing that he is so relieved, I don't worry too much.
I smiled and nodded, looking ahead, the sandstorm getting closer and closer.
With my guts, I thought I still wouldn't look at it, so for the sake of politeness, I hurriedly said to people: "Pay attention to safety!"
With that, I got back into the carriage again.
I'm not afraid of losing face, I'm really afraid of death, especially now that I'm already young, I'm even more afraid of death.
Having truly experienced the taste of death, I really had a great desire for life.
So at my age, which should have been all kinds of deaths, I've never done death, even to be a mecha, I don't need to be handsome, high attack power, or something that can quickly attract people's attention.
Even if Su Ling'er and this tiger man are very confident, they still have to be cowardly.
Back in the carriage, Su Ling'er chuckled when she saw my appearance: "Don't worry, it'll be fine,
This is not a big sandstorm that can't be defended against by spiritual weapons, that kind of big sandstorm hasn't appeared in nearly a hundred years. ”
Shall I it?
I was really afraid that Su Linger would suddenly speak like this, so I stood up and covered Su Linger's mouth as soon as I stood up.
This is the first time I have been so close to Su Ling'er, I suddenly felt a panic on my face, I let go after a few seconds of covering it, and hurriedly said after letting go: "Ling'er, don't talk nonsense." ”
"You!"
I have to say that Su Linger's temper is really good, if my sister had given me a drum washing machine a long time ago, then let me talk like this here.
But I can't even sigh now, Su Ling'er had just said a word, and suddenly a loud shout came from outside: "Oh no, this is a big sandstorm that has not been encountered in a century! Brothers, form a formation!"
"Yes!"
"Whew!"
"Click!"
......
Really, whoever says that Su Ling'er is not a poisonous milk in the future will fight with whomever I want.
What Nima said is too accurate, right?
There was a commotion outside, and then I heard a strong wind sweeping in an instant.
If the sound can pass through the magical barrier created by the spiritual weapon, then it means that the magical barrier that protects us has disappeared.
Suddenly, I felt weightlessness under my feet, and then the carriage suddenly tilted towards Su Linger, I didn't stand firm and fell directly to Su Linger, thanks to Su Linger's timely reaction and hugged me, I didn't suffer any harm.
I'm not stupid, this situation has only proved two things.
First, the quality of our carriage was really good, so it was not damaged.
Second, we seem to have been swept away by a sandstorm.
And at this moment, the carriage that was protecting us suddenly made a "squeaky tooth" sound.
I was in a hurry all of a sudden, and said directly to Su Ling'er: "Ling'er, quickly, use the Eternal Xuanwu." ”
Su Linger couldn't nod his head when he hugged me, so he could only prove it with practical actions.
The spiritual power light flickered, and in the next second, the carriage that had reached its limit was instantly destroyed from the inside by a metal monster seven or eight meters tall that appeared inside.
Thanks to what I did was to use the spirit array to teleport into the cab, this has to be used in other ways, I guess I can't even get into the cab.
Standing in the cab doesn't have the feeling of spinning in a carriage.
This has something to do with my design.
Because the control mecha uses what cultivators call mental power control, it avoids a lot of troublesome things such as wires, transmission tubes, etc., so I simply designed the control room to be resistant to rotation.
I can't remember the name of this design, but it's pretty useful.
That is, no matter how much it is outside, I can't feel it inside.
It's just that my heart isn't that big, and the Eternal Xuanwu has just finished upgrading its equipment, and I can't bear to let it fly around in a sandstorm.
So I hurriedly let go of Su Ling'er and came to the driver's seat in a few steps.
With the driver's seat merged, my eyes were instantly ......
Really, I don't want to say more, I'm just mentally retarded.
As I stepped into the driver's seat, the Eternal Xuanwu mech activated, but my perspective kept spinning!
I forgot that my perspective changed with the perspective of the Eternal Xuanwu.
In other words, I'm playing the same 3D game as I am, and it's the kind of 3D game where the screen shakes is particularly severe.
Really, if it weren't for my mech, I'd have to vomit here.
Now I still can't vomit, and even my mind moved, and then a soft blue light instantly appeared in front of my eyes, and when I looked at it from the outside, the palms of the two palms and the palms of the two feet of the Eternal Xuanwu Mecha instantly sprayed out a long blue light.
Does anyone remember my quad-core linkage jet?
Now that I've built all my mechs, why can't I send myself to heaven like my idol Tony Stark (Iron Man)!
Don't forget, the Eternal Xuanwu is the pinnacle of all my creativity.
In this kind of sandstorm that can blow more than a dozen tons of stuff all over the ground, the way I chose to deal with it was to force it.
As long as I exert a kinetic energy stronger than the wind, then I can stop moving.
