Chapter 205: Return to Boulder City
The distance between Boulder City and Black Rock City is much closer than that of the Stone Tower Tribe, and it can be reached in about ten days at the speed of a jeep, of course, if Ruya is traveling alone on a bald head, this speed will be reduced a lot, but in order to take care of those children, Luya can only 'slowly' sit on the jeep. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
This time to Boulder City, Lu Ya still chose the road of the market, although a little detour, but it is better to walk, because since the reputation of the Black Stone Market opened, there are always many people on the road from Boulder City to the market every day, some of them are in the form of caravans, and some are in the form of threes and threes or individuals. Not surprisingly, their destinations were all Blackstone Bazaar, and the target was the tempting merchandise of Blackstone Place.
According to the joint negotiation decision of Lua and House some time ago, except for some fixed suppliers, all the remaining commodity sales quotas have been determined by lottery, which also excludes the situation that those large caravans will take all the inventory at one time, and the small chambers of commerce behind will not be able to drink a little soup.
As soon as this method was announced, the vast majority of people raised their hands and feet in favor of it, because this meant that those small teams and even individuals had the opportunity to get the first-hand source of Blackstone Fang, which also increased the number of people who came to the market in disguise.
As soon as the floating population increased, it also promoted the economy and construction of the entire bazaar, and benefited from the overall development of the entire bazaar, and the people in charge of those caravans of course also saw it, so all kinds of hotels, inns, shops and various services in the bazaar sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the shops were only rented to those who opened the shops, and the land was not sold. As the manager of the market, the Blackstone tribe just collected enough money from the store every month to make those medium-sized tribes red-eyed, of course, they really didn't dare to have any ideas.
Passing by the bazaar, Ruya also had a meal with Kuchi and Isido, who also wanted to follow Ruya to Boulder City, but because a batch of new goods was about to be sent away in the past few days, he could only be stupid.
After eating and drinking, Lu Ya and the others continued to set off, and then they only stopped at noon and at night when they had dinner and rest in Boulder City. Thanks to the influence of the Black Stone Workshop, the shadow of the inns can be seen every once in a while on this road that is not traveled by many people, although these inns are not big and not luxurious, but they are much better than Rua and them sleeping in the wilderness.
The existence of jeeps is no secret nowadays, as long as you know a little about Blackstone Place, you will know that jeeps are a magical means of transportation, plus those who are lucky enough to be jeeps deliberately show off in front of people, jeeps have even become a status symbol in people's hearts.
During this period, there were naturally some people who wanted to buy this kind of jeep at a high price through Blackstone Fang, but the answer they got was always very resolute, that is, not to sell it! Of course, the jeep can't be sold, at least at this stage, you don't have to think about it, there are too many involved, and Ruya doesn't want to cause trouble for himself.
A convoy of five jeeps at a time like Luya, the degree of pulling can be imagined, so every time he stops to rest, there will be a lot of passers-by who come to observe and point to the car, and they don't dare to get too close, so they look at the jeep with envy from a distance.
Lu Ya has naturally been recognized countless times, mainly because his image is too distinct, his human figure, much lighter skin color and age than normal orcs, and the most important thing is that he is still sitting in a jeep, which adds up to almost exposing his identity as the patriarch of the Blackstone tribe, and he can be regarded as experiencing the feeling of being in the spotlight all the way.
Ruya still remembered the fact that the Priest's Tower was opened once on the fifth day, and after calculating his itinerary a little, Ruya arrived at Boulder City the afternoon before the next Priest's Tower opened.
The huge city wall that is about twice as tall as the Black Rock City makes Lu Ya sigh every time he sees it, he knows that there is no stone mountain near this place at all, so how did this huge stone city be built? This question has long been impossible to verify, and no one has studied it specifically, those who live in this majestic city only need to know that to defend this city is to keep their hopes.
As the family that has been inheriting and leading the city, the Harrison family, I don't know how many battles they have experienced over the city for countless years, but they have always firmly grasped the ownership of the city, and their heritage can also be seen.
Now that this family, the nominal first person in this city, took the initiative to invite him to the banquet, Lu Ya suddenly felt that he was a little inflated~.
Thinking of the happy place, Ruya whistled briskly, watched the city gate getting closer and closer and more pedestrians, and stopped to open the door and jumped down with a gesture to the driver.
After tidying up the corners of his clothes that had been made a little messy, Ruya walked forward, and the jeep moved slowly behind him, and the movement here quickly attracted the attention of a large number of orcs waiting to enter the city, whether they had heard of the jeep or not, it did not hinder their curiosity about the jeep.
"What's the matter?" a puzzled question rang out from behind the crowd, and the crowd moved out of the way to reveal a young priest in a white sacrificial robe.
The priest was also stunned when he saw Ruya and the number of jeeps after he got up, but Ruya recognized the man at a glance, smiled and greeted him.
"It's still big brother, you're on duty today, you don't remember me, I and my companion came once before winter, at that time we were stolen by a few little guys at the gate and couldn't enter the city, or did you come to let us in, did you forget?" Lu Ya said as he took the hand of the young priest who was still a little stunned and shook it, then let go of his hand and still looked at him with a smile.
"You... oh, it turned out to be you" The young priest didn't seem to think about it at all, but seeing that Lu Ya was so enthusiastic, he also responded to the situation.
How could Lu Ya not know that people didn't remember him at all, but he didn't blame others, after all, he was a little embarrassed at that time. But this time it's different, although the word "homecoming" is not appropriate, but it's not a character himself.
"That's the kind of car called Jeep, hiss~ It turns out that they can really run on their own" Someone in the queue to enter the city recognized the jeep and exclaimed.
"One, two, three, four, oh my God, there are five jeeps, should this be some big man from the Blackstone Workshop?"
"Blackstone, I think I've heard of it somewhere," many in the crowd struggled to recall.
"You haven't heard of the Black Stone Workshop, so you know all the soap, anxiety relief, cement, perfume and fine iron weapons they sell."
"What! It turns out that these strange cars belong to the Black Stone Workshop, I remembered as soon as you said that, when I delivered to the hotel in the city a few days ago, I smelled the smell of wine from the back kitchen, hiss~ I was almost drunk just by smelling it" A simplely dressed porter in the crowd said with emotion.
"What's that, let me tell you, last time I followed the caravan in the city to the Blackstone Bazaar to help unload the goods, you don't know, the walls of the bazaar are all made of that kind of cement, and the streets near the Blackstone Fang are not even as prosperous as those shops in the North City, and that day it happened to be the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the bazaar, I also met the legendary Blackstone Patriarch, who is really called a young and young Ruya patriarch!, that is the Luya patriarch of the Blackstone tribe!" A laborer who was bragging about what he had seen in the bazaar suddenly noticed Ruya, who was talking to the priest on duty, and his eyes almost bulged out of his sockets.
"Where is where" many people immediately came to the spirit.
"Where is the Black Stone Patriarch, where is it, people really want to see it," a fat girl with a ghostly face pushed away the crowd and shouted outside.
・・・・・・
Seeing that he was so famous now, Lu Ya suddenly had a feeling that no one in the world knew him, but the 'girl' who had already targeted him obviously saw it, and hurriedly turned his head to look at the gatekeeper who had guessed his identity.
"Big brother, let's go in," Ruya almost put his face in front of the priest's eyes.
"Oh...・Oh~~Clan・・Uh・・・Please inside, this is the passage for priests, come here" The priest came back to his senses, and immediately led the way respectfully sideways.
As Ruya advanced, the five jeeps also slowly disappeared into the city gate hole under the curious eyes of everyone, and the 'girl' who wanted to rush up to meet Luya was stopped by two guards, and could only look at the direction in which Ruya disappeared with a sad face.
"Hiss~" Lu Ya shuddered, glanced back suspiciously, and turned around.
"Patriarch Lu Ya, do you want me to introduce you to a more comfortable hotel" The young priest has been extremely enthusiastic since he learned of Lu Ya's identity, and it stands to reason that he will complete the task by leading Lu Ya and them into the city, but Lu Ya is now about to walk to Beicheng District, this guy has been following Lu Ya's side, and he just doesn't leave, so Lu Ya is really a little speechless.
"No, Priest Warren, don't you need to be on duty at the city gates" Ruya's playful eyes made Warren's gaze dodge a little.
"Yes, yes, hehe" Although the face of the priest on duty named Warren was embarrassed, he just pretended not to understand.
"Then why don't you hurry back, if something needs you, it's not good that you're not there" Ruya didn't bother to look at him anymore, jumped into the jeep, and slowly moved forward.
"Yes, yes, yes," Warren just said, but his legs just kept following Ruya's team.
"Priest Warren, if you have anything, just say it, you tangled, I'm worried about you" Ruya pinched his nose with a helpless expression. (To be continued.) )
