I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones
Page 651
Rounding is also a good thing.
It's hard for Lu Jian to say, if the wasteland hadn't been led by a saint and failed to establish these city-states, would it have survived until now? At least, in a world that has become the end of the world, extraordinary power is always useful.
The two came to the gate of the city. The guards here are not too strict. The distance between the cities in the wasteland is extremely far away. Most of the people who can reach here are business travelers. , trading the specialties of different city-states and earning profits.
Walking into the city, on the simple and plain main road, Lu Juan saw low-rise houses on both sides and vendors along the street.
The things these vendors sell are very strange. Most of them are metal products such as cans and spoons. Occasionally, some stone carvings can be seen. As for food or clothes, they are almost invisible.
It can also be understood that the nature of the wasteland is still in the desert, and resources are scarce. Except for the relics of the previous era that the explorers found from the ruins, everything else should be deployed uniformly, and there will be no surplus food for sale.
On the side of the road, someone was eating. He used a broken iron can, which contained a brown semi-solid like paste. He drank it in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and was quite satisfied.
Lu Jian remembered that the main source of food in the wasteland was bugs, but now it seems that there are other crops.
"Please support our Huangsha Brotherhood, Master Iron Snake will lead everyone to live a good life!"
Lu Juan heard the yelling not far away, and many people gathered there. Lu Juan and Feng Yu looked at each other and followed.
They found that in the middle of the crowd, there were a few young lads, and there was a big pot in which the brown paste was simmering. They were shouting and distributing food to others. As a result, this place was surrounded by water.
Thinking of this, Lu Jian didn't know where to find a bowl, and went to it.
At the end of the month, ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!
===854. Utopia===
Although the buildings in this city looked badly weathered and dilapidated, the quality of the residents was quite high. Everyone lined up in an orderly manner, round after round.
Most of the people were knocking on their bowls and waiting to eat, and few people were actually listening to the young people.
Lu Jian listened carefully while queuing up.
"Our Yellow Sand Brotherhood has been maintaining the law and order near Utopia for so many years, fighting against bandits in the desert, and escorting merchants. Our leader, Mr. Iron Snake, has a tough wrist and will lead Utopia to open up new worlds and gain more resource!"
"The reason why we are living so hard now is precisely because there are a lot of resources that no one is looking for. Now, the face of the Promised Land has been clearly revealed, and we should get our own share!"
"The truth of history is widely known, but we are not wrong. Are you willing to be tortured by illness and die early? We should find a way to treat our own diseases!"
Their words are very provocative, and their goal is very clear, that is, to get out of utopia and explore the unknown new world.
But obviously, no matter what era, not many people really care about politics.
Part of it is that one’s own will is small, and even if one has any thoughts about the sage’s campaign, it’s irrelevant to the overall situation, and part of it is that one’s not even sure what to eat the next day, and naturally one’s further future cannot be considered.
They are more just queuing up numbly, waiting to finish eating, at least enough to survive.
Lu Jian waited in line for more than ten minutes, and finally got his share.
After a spoonful of it, the viscous brown liquid exudes a smell that can't be called a fragrance, which is enough to kill the appetite of most people.
"Can you give me a little more? My bowl is so big."
Lu Bian asked.
The person in charge of distributing the food glanced at Lu trip and didn't give him another meal.
"Next one, don't dawdle."
The opponent used a spoon to drive away Lu Jian.
Lu Jian could only slip away holding the plate.
This is also normal. In this kind of occasion, if there is too much food for one person, then other people will definitely follow suit and ask for more, which will eventually lead to confusion and competition.
The young people were still preaching, and Lu Juan had come to the edge of the street. He squatted on the ground, enjoying the brown paste in the bowl into his mouth.
"This texture reminds me of something not so good."
Feng Yu sneered from the sidelines.
Lu Jian stopped halfway through drinking.
Look closely, this viscous texture, this dark brown color, this wonderful smell
"The taste is actually not bad, better than bugs."
Lu Jian drank the contents of the bowl in one gulp.
"It seems that the people here are pretty good at running for office, and they know how to use food to win people's hearts."
Lu Jian wiped his mouth, and the bowl in his hand disappeared again at some point.
"A crooked way."
At this time, perhaps hearing Lu Jian's words, a man in a windbreaker next to him chuckled.
His voice was very low, but Lu Jian still heard it.
Lu Jian noticed some tattoos on this man's arm, which formed a wonderful pattern with those crystals, like a symbol of some kind of organization.
"Do you think they're doing it wrong?"
Lu Jian made a sound, making the other party look over.
The man's eyes were a little surprised, as if he was surprised how Lu Jian heard this.
But soon the other party regained his composure, and only took a deep look at Lu Jian, remembering his appearance, before turning and leaving.
"It seems that the competition has already begun."
Feng Yu said meaningfully.
Lu Yi's goal is to choose a camp to help them become saints, so he must first understand the current camp and make his own choice.
At the same time, there will be other God's Chosen as enemies in this mission. Lu Jian believes that if he can find the hostile God's Chosen in advance, it will be very helpful for the camp he chooses to support.
After all, the camp chosen by the hostile God's Chosen must be harmful to the world, and it is a wrong choice.
"Let's find a place to stay first."
Feng Yu pointed to a low-rise building in front of him.
There are many residents in Utopia, but the city itself is also very large, divided into several areas, among which the part near the oasis is inhabited by city managers, explorers who often leave the city to explore ruins in the desert, etc.
A little farther away, surrounding the pyramid-like building in the center are some soldiers and administrators who maintain the city.
In the farther circle, there are ordinary residents. Most of these residents have no property. Although they suffer from crystal nucleus disease, they have not awakened too strong abilities and cannot go out to explore.
In the area on the edge of the city, there are a large number of vacant houses. These houses are reserved for the traveling merchants who come and go. What makes Lu Juan feel a little strange is that although these empty houses are easy to be occupied by some criminals Occupy, but after actually coming here, he found that these houses are clean, no one is occupying the magpie's nest, only one person lives in a room, and there is no dispute between everyone.
He and Feng Yu found a nice-looking house, and as soon as they walked in, they were stopped by a young man next to them.
"You better put your name on the sign."
The other party pointed to the sign at the door and the black stones next to it.
"If you don't first claim ownership of this house, you may be considered thieves and thieves."
Lu Jian was skeptical, picked up a stone, and wrote his and Feng Yu's names on a stone sign at the door.
"Why does it look weird?"
Feng Yu glanced at the two people's names, one on the left and one on the right, they looked like a couple.
"Don't worry about the details."
Lu Jian threw the black stone back and asked curiously.
"That's all right? Why do we have to sign first?"
"Huh? This is your first time in Utopia, no, even if it's your first time, you must have heard about it."
The man stroked his unshaven chin. Although he looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, he looked quite mature with a beard.
"Forget it, seeing you two are so old, maybe your memory is not good enough."
He looked at Lu Jian and Feng Yu. To him, the two people in their 20s were indeed old men.
Due to the existence of crystal nucleus disease in the wasteland, most people can't live beyond 25, and the mainstay is already in their teens.
In your 20s, it's already sunset.
"This city has the power of the blessing of a saint. Anyone who violates the rules will be sanctioned, and the rule made by that saint is that anyone can own their own house. As long as they sign their names, they can obtain ownership."
he explained, pointing to his own house.
"My name is Man Niu. If you don't understand anything, you can come to me and I will live there."
===855. Square Debate===
"The city has rules that must be followed"
After the other party left, Lu Juan and Feng Yu discussed.
"It's a bit of a weird thing. I don't know what the end of breaking the rules is?"
"Why don't you try it?"
Feng Yu suggested.
"Let's understand the rules first."
Lu Jie didn't take the risk to die. It would be fine if he was simply struck by lightning, but if he was directly expelled from Utopia, it would be harmful to the completion of the mission.
He thought about it, and felt that the little brother next door was quite nice, he would remind himself, and decided to ask him later.
But before that, Lu Jian still had to try his best to find out information on the street, so as not to be misled by the words of the family.
Packed up with Feng Yu and came to the street, Lu Jian soon found that many people were walking towards a building near the pyramid.
The building has a circular shape, supported by thick columns, like a circular square.
The steps of the square are the seats. People, regardless of gender, whether they are teenagers or children of only a few years old, sit on the seats according to the rules, waiting for something.
The clothes of these people are much better than what Lu Jian first saw. It seems that what he first encountered were the migrants living in the outermost layer of the city.
Lu Jian and Feng Yu found a place with a good view and sat down, and saw two people walking in the center of the circular square.
The clothes of the two people looked like scholars in ancient Greece. The crystals on their bodies were located on the neck and legs respectively. They glanced at the audience, and one of them said.
