Chapter 34: The Oasis

On the bleak wasteland, a variety of boulders of all sizes formed the main scenery of the field, and a huge rock that was noticeably more majestic than the surrounding boulders, like a small mountain, suddenly came a sound of loosening. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Then a sneaky figure pushed away a rock that was used to block the entrance to the cave, and then quickly threw it aside and pretended to be nothing.

Looking at the straw that was blown by the breeze in front of him, and looking around at the environment of the Gobi rocks around him, Xuanye also found the corresponding direction on the map, and then moved towards that side.

Maybe it's because it's already a little close to Stan Rosai City, and the probability of the appearance of demonic beasts that are not very frequent has obviously become less in the vicinity, and other humans can occasionally be seen along the way, except for Xuanya, most of them seem to appear in groups.

There were two or three people at the least, and there were hundreds of caravans and their guards, and in this regard, Xuanye only looked at it from a distance at most and turned his head away, and he didn't know if it was because of the impact of Luo Luoji's death on him.

Being alone in the wilderness can be regarded as a very attractive prey in itself, and in the wild, where there is no legal constraint at all, human beings are often more dangerous than monsters, but he has a broken bow and a short sword at his waist, as well as a tattered little baggage, which also dispels many ill-intentioned thoughts.

Hehe, this joke isn't funny at all, and if you take 10,000 steps back, someone who really has space equipment is an even worse target.

The mercenaries and scavengers who have been wandering in the wild all year round naturally know how to choose.

Therefore, Xuanye's day and night rush was relatively peaceful, and gradually, traces of the road appeared in front of him, although it was still the kind of sandy gravel pavement, but it was obviously artificially paved.

As he passed by a small level naturally constructed of two boulders, he saw a dense layer of parchment on the boulder

'Recently, a group of hyenas (15-25) roamed the trade lanes, clean the trade roads, cut off the ears of the hyenas, and each of them can be exchanged for an additional fifty copper coins in the mercenary hall'

'A small tribe of gnolls migrated into the oasis around the city, driving them away or killing them before they could cause more damage, each pair of gnolls claws in exchange for an additional eighty coppers'

'Road maintenance, report to the road repair team, as long as you have the strength to get a corresponding salary. ’

'Corn and wheat merchants are welcome to trade in Stanross, and this season's food trade is exempt from tax. ’

‘......’

Although there are no guards on the side, this small level is plastered with various precautions and published tasks.

Judging from the newness of the parchment, it should be a recent task, and a lot of the parchment still seems to have some traces of pasting before, which is quite humane, you can save the time of going back to the city to pick up the task, and go back with the proof to complete the task directly.

As for whether they will use prey from other places to make false reports, it is estimated that they have also had a unique way of distinguishing them until now, at the very least, from the freshness of their ears and claws, they can tell whether they are nearby or far away.

And judging by the intensity of this task, it should be completed by relatively low-level mercenaries and even civilians.

Passing through the corner of the small level, you will see a fresh green color when you look down the slope.

Accustomed to seeing the dead desert and the barren Gobi, the sudden appearance of a large oasis in front of me really gives people a comfortable feeling.

It seems that the air is fresher immediately!

Looking into the center of the oasis, a magnificent city of rocks comes into view, the entire city is built on a gray-white stone hill, with steep terrain and towering walls that seem to be able to withstand any attack.

A wide road leading from the city gate winds down the stone mountain, densely packed with people the size of ants.

Stan Rose!

Bordered by the Desert of the Dead to the west and the Split Wind Plains to the north, it is the only large human gathering place in the vicinity that has formed a city!

"I'm a good girl, what a god. ”

Although there is a vague picture in his memory, compared to his own immersion, Xuanye still feels the greatness of manpower.

The city of Stanrosese was built on the top of a mine, and even such a vast oasis next to it was artificially cultivated and expanded over the years after the city was founded!

It is the source of life for the entire city of Stanrose.

Groups of camels were prostrate at the edge of the oasis resting and feeding, and laughter came from the tents, as if rejoicing that they had finally crossed the desert or plains to this oasis.

It should all be caravans and scavengers who want to reorganize first and then prepare to enter the city.

Looking at the Rongrong Chacha in front of him, Xuanye also felt a little distracted, if he hadn't followed those plague gods halfway and turned back, maybe he and his uncle would have celebrated here.

After shaking his head and shaking off all the distractions, Xuanye continued to walk in the direction in front of him.

Looking at the singing and laughing in front of him, it seems that the follow-up actions of the cult organization to which Ye Man belonged have not affected this place, what is it that was desperately trying to live in the first place, it has been more than two months, and there is no.

Gradually, I came to the camp, listening to the exotic instrumental music in my ears, and watching the hot dance of those hot dancers, Xuanye's mood also improved a little, and gradually integrated into life from the mentality of a bystander along the way.

After taking a glass of wine handed over by the dancing girl and thanking him, Xuanye found an open space and sat down.

This should be a small celebration of several caravans spontaneously gathered next to them, and they are about to enter the city, so it's not bad to mix with them, and by the way, ask about the latest news.

However, it is clear that this group of businessmen who have just come in from outside also have limited knowledge of the current situation of Stan Rose.

Two of the teams came to sell grain because of their past experience, and the two months of the rainy season were in the stage after the bumper harvest in other places, but in the city of Stanrose, it happened to be the time when the harvest was not harvested.

After all, relying on this oasis outside, there is still a lot of pressure to feed everyone.

Therefore, even with his perception that was far beyond ordinary people after opening the perception of the inner mansion, he did not receive any useful information from the nearby conversations.

And just when he was about to give up and prepare to meditate all night and enter the city tomorrow, the conversation between the two drunks caught his attention.

“...... Hey, when I was passing through Dandui Town, I heard that another professional-level big man had died in the Stanrosai City Lord's Mansion, and you said that when the internal conflict on their side would end, it wouldn't have any impact on our business. ”

"Hey~, you said that you are smart or the boss is smart, you must be sure that he will come to earn a vote, no matter who is in charge of Stan Rosai in the end, he must also need food, then he has to be polite to us......"

“......”

began to hear that he had died a professional rank, and Xuan Ye subconsciously thought of Uncle Luo Luoji, but then he thought that it was from the City Lord's Mansion, so it seemed that it didn't matter, and it had been more than two months since that encounter, so it shouldn't be considered recent.

Listening to what they mean, it seems that there is some kind of battle going on inside Stan Rosai now, the City Lord's Mansion is actually dead, and he is still a professional powerhouse, it is obviously not a trivial matter, listen to their meaning, this may determine the last right to speak in Stan Rose.

Even this group of businessmen knew that it was obvious that this incident had started a long time ago, but unfortunately the original owner was a guy who only knew how to practice martial arts and curry favor with the potion before, and his identity and grade were also lower, otherwise it is estimated that he should be able to know the rumors at that time.

But obviously, this is a good thing for himself, at least when the internal forces struggle, it reduces the probability of being discovered, since the involvement is so big, it is impossible for the Kender family, as the third major force, to stay out of the matter.

Maybe it's still the main side......
