Bandera left, and so did Ivo. The news that Lulkaf Kobochin was not dead spread throughout the city, and his past evil deeds were fully exposed. Some people began to despise him, and some began to despise him.
I didn’t believe it, but people with ulterior motives had ulterior motives. At this time, a piece of news spread in the tavern. There was an astonishing secret hidden under the Yueyue Lake in Shabazhou. This secret could
Lead people to find the tomb of Phoecanus Glonus and his treasure. Of course everyone is interested in such news, and some people have even set off to find the secrets at the bottom of Lake Drinking Moon.
In the hotel.
"Damn it, this news must have been released by Cobochin, the guy who suffered a thousand blows!" Codman was so angry that he picked up a pillow and threw it.
Jennifer said: "It's useless for you to be angry. His purpose is to change the targets of those who want to find him, including those in black and Rico who both want to kill him and want to find the ancient tomb."
"Then what should we do? Many people are preparing to go to Shashazhou now. Should we set off for Shashazhou immediately?"
"I have to go, but there is no hurry. I have to prepare the food and utensils before setting off."
Rourke asked: "Do you want to call Alice on the journey?"
"Of course." Jennifer said, "It's still a long way to find the ancient tomb. She has a good mind and will definitely be able to help on the way."
…
Because of Bandera's disappearance and the Kobochin incident, under Naviti's pressure, the security station withdrew the wanted order against Cesanil. Naviti, using his father's name, and
With the flattery of the local officials, he temporarily took charge of the government affairs of Xisha City. Of course, the first thing he wanted to do was to approve the mineral mining documents that Cesanil was eager to need.
After receiving the special approval, Cesanil was relieved of all his worries. He said to Naviti in the mayor's office: "You are acting as the mayor now, and you don't have time to hang out with me. It just so happens that I have the time too."
Other matters need to be dealt with. If I want to leave here and go to other places to mine minerals, I will entrust a person to help me deal with it. If I encounter financial matters in the future, he will be fully responsible."
"Although I haven't known you for a long time, I feel like I have been an old friend for more than ten years. You are really willing to leave." Naviti was very reluctant to leave such a good friend.
Cesanil patted his arm and smiled: "You are my friend, my best friend, I will always remember it. I left for necessary reasons, but I will definitely come back again, you are such a good friend.
, how can I bear it?"
"Humph, okay then." Naviti pointed at him and smiled: "But don't forget your promise."
"I'll be back soon. Goodbye."
Cesanil left the city hall and Xisha City. Monina, with eagle wings spread in the sky, flew from a distance and followed him.
"Where are we going now? Yuhuang."
"Go to Shaba Island." Cesaniel took out the sheepskin map and looked at it: "This map is not complete. What is it? It doesn't look like a forgery. It should be an ancient relic.
"
Monina landed on the camel's back, hugged Cesaniel and said: "No matter what it is, it is always useful, so save it first."
"Yeah. By the way, it's time to contact Chen Sufina. When you get to the next town, you can write a secret letter to contact her." Cesanil put the parchment into a different space.
"knew."
…
In Xisha City, a man carrying a coffin came to this strange city with his weird walking rhythm. He walked very slowly, and people walking on the street looked at him, but he didn't care about other people's eyes.
Just move towards your goals.
At the municipal building, the boy carrying the coffin stopped here. He looked up at the building, which was not very tall, and his emotionless eyes became sharp and full of resentment. Just when he was about to take another step,
A person stood in front of him.
"Undertaker, the Second Lord of Lawmaking has called you back. The war is about to begin, and you have a new mission." The man who spoke had an ordinary appearance, and after speaking, he left like an ordinary person.
The young man carrying the coffin stopped walking forward, suppressed the resentment in his eyes, looked at the municipal building again, turned around and left.
…
The journey from Xisha City to Shabazhou is neither too far nor too close. If you take the long way, you will pass through the Huangsha Inland Sea, bypass the Inland Sea Desert and then turn south. It will take more than 30 days to get there. But take the shortcut.
It would only take about ten days to go directly south, cross the border and then turn back west to re-enter the Zaliba border. Of course, Alice chose the shortcut. Although it would cost some money to go back and forth through customs, it was safer than walking through the desert.
On July 22, Alice and Jennifer arrived not far from Shaba Island.
"Four kilometers ahead is Shaba Island." The thick palm of the desert doodle bird that Jennifer was riding was standing next to the boundary marker of Shaba Island.
Komand pointed to the front and said: "There is a shed under the tree over there. Let's go over there and rest for a while before leaving."
Jennifer closed the map in her hand and said, "We're not far from Shaba Island anyway. These desert doodles are very tired. They might as well take a rest."
The shed is a pergola. In addition to providing tables and chairs to sell water and snacks, it also sells large, bright red and sweet watermelons. However, there are not many seats in the pergola, so Alice and the others waited nearby for a while before they found an empty table.
Sat down.
After a while, the busy melon seller came over and asked, "Do you want to drink water or eat watermelon?"
"Of course it's a watermelon." Comander said in a big and thick voice: "Where is your watermelon? Pick a big one for me."
The melon seller chuckled, showing his yellow teeth: "The watermelon is right there, but my melons are a bit expensive. A ten-pound melon costs five gold coins. Do you guys want to buy it?"
"A ten-pound melon costs five gold coins." Comand said: "I said you are really good at making money. Do you know that I couldn't earn fifty a month before? You are just robbing me."
Money."
The melon seller chuckled and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. I didn't sell it so expensively before, but I don't know what happened recently. Many people are coming these days to go to Shaba Island. There are more people coming, and the business is getting better."
That’s good, and the price of melons will naturally rise accordingly.”
Komande waved his hand: "Okay, okay, pick a big one. It needs to be sweet. If it's not sweet, I won't pay you."
"Well, I'll treat you well." The melon seller kept going to the tree and opened a wooden board, revealing an underground kiln that was letting out cold air. It turned out that all the watermelons were hidden inside.
The watermelon was brought up and cut into pieces. The melon seller took the money and went to greet other customers with satisfaction.
Comand took a few big bites, looked at the passers-by, shook his head and said: "Oh, I want to sell watermelons here. With such a good business, one day of selling can probably catch up with my two-month income."
Now, there’s no need to be so worried every day.”
Jennifer said: "Well, you can just get a wife in Shabazhou and stay here. In the future, you will have two sons, and your children and grandchildren will sell melons here."
"Oh, oh, I'm not joking. Is it wrong to envy other people's good business?"
"Look at your potential."
Rourke said: "However, people have not stopped along the way. There must be more than a hundred people. With so many people coming, I am afraid that Cobochin will spread the news while running, which will put pressure on us."
It’s big.”
At this time, several Akali jackals came running on the dirt road, and the strong wind knocked over the old woman driving the car on the roadside.
"Damn it! The road is so big, but these guys had to squeeze to the roadside and brought down an old woman who was several decades old. What a bastard." Alice cursed and was about to get up and go over to help people.
The men riding the Akale Jackal stopped when they heard Alice's scolding. The leader pointed a whip at Alice and said, "What the hell are you scolding?"
"Your mother is scolding you, calling you a useless, stupid son, a bastard." Alice learned a curse word from somewhere, and she opened her mouth to curse back.
The man riding the jackal became angry and whipped him: "I'll beat you to death, you bitch."
Wherever the whip could hit her, Alice stretched out her hand, grabbed the whip and pulled hard, dragging the person on the jackal directly off, then raised her foot and kicked him in the face.
This kick was so merciless that his nose and mouth were bleeding, and there was a leather shoe mark in the center of his face.
Alice said proudly: "You are the only one who dares to attack me these two times. I beat you until you don't know whether the watermelon is round or flat."
"Vice-captain." The other three jackal riders jumped down and helped the deputy-captain up.
The vice-captain covered his mouth and nose. Seeing that there were many people behind Alice, he pointed and said: "Just wait, wait for me, I will settle the score with you." After saying this, he rode on the Akale Jackal.
He ran away in embarrassment.
Alice clapped her hands and snorted, turned around to help the old lady, but saw that the old lady had already been helped up.
"Are you okay?" The man wearing a sand hat helped the old lady up and went to pick up the fruits that had fallen on the ground until all the fruits were put on the pig cart.
The old lady wiped away the dust on her body and said: "Thank you, you are such a good boy. Otherwise, I would have to pick up these fruits for a while, and they would definitely be trampled by carriages and horses."
"It's just a small matter." The Shali man couldn't see his expression because he was wearing a scarf, but his eyes were smiling. He brought his camel and said to the old lady: "You are going to Shabazhou, and so am I. All the cars and horses are running on the road.
You have to go quickly, let me go with you, lest they hit you again." He said and helped the old lady into the car.
"Hey, thank you, young man."
The Shali man led the camel and walked slowly beside the old woman's pig cart.
Alice sat back on the stool, shook her head and said, "People are just different. Those adults in their thirties and forties are not as morally good as a young man."
At this time, Rourke patted the table and pointed at the sky: "Hey, look, that thing is..."
