Chapter 46 Chapter 46 A dozen alcoholic drinks...
A dozen alcoholics squinted their eyes, trying to see the scene ahead clearly in the glaring sunlight.
Her pace slowed down unconsciously, and the wind and sand in the desert seemed to stop at this moment, with only her rapid breathing echoing in her ears.
She rubbed her eyes again, trying to clear up the blurriness.
In front of her left, there seemed to be something reflecting a dazzling light under the sunlight. It looked a bit like a mirage, but it was so real.
"It looks like a city," said the drunkard as he ran forward, not caring how difficult the sand on the ground was to walk on.
At this moment, the only thing in her mind was the joy of discovering a new map.
However, she was completely unaware that she had not even reached the boundary of the gray area.
As the distance shortened, she finally saw clearly that it was indeed an ancient city. Although it had been eroded by wind and sand, its former glory could still be seen.
"Looks a bit like a pyramid," complained a dozen alcohols.
The city was built entirely of huge stones, some of which looked golden under the sunlight.
From a distance, you would think it was a city of gold.
[Is this the legendary Western Region?]
[There seems to be someone in front, is that riding a camel?]
[Here comes the photogenic crowd. I immediately thought this desert was incredibly photogenic. And this city also looks pretty photogenic.]
[Oh, I have to say it's really great to travel outside. Mainly because this is a real ancient place, not just imitations of ancient buildings, and there are many ancient people, so taking photos in period costumes is not out of place at all!]
[It’s a pity that the host didn’t get a hairstyle done in the one-click dress-up shop first, otherwise it would have looked so good in the photos.]
Yidajiujiu looked at the comments and smiled. "What's the big deal? I can just go to that city and buy two sets of clothes later."
She pursed her lips and said, "Let's go!"
Yida alcohol took two breaths, adjusted his backpack, made sure all the equipment was securely fastened on his body, and then continued his pace towards the ancient city.
The desert sun is like a blazing fireball, mercilessly burning the earth. Every grain of sand emits heat, as if to dry out the human soul.
As she got closer, the outline of the ancient city became clearer and clearer.
The architectural style of that city was different from any ancient civilization she knew. Its lines were simple and smooth, and the gaps between the stones were small and filled with sand.
Until she finally arrived near the city, she could see from afar a group of people wearing exotic clothes at the city gate.
Those people had tanned skin and almost all wore veils on their heads. Some of them were leading camels, while others were sitting on camels, looking at her curiously.
"Who is that?" asked a woman at the foot of the city wall.
Zaheer, who was beside her, squinted his eyes and shook his head after a long moment. "I don't know him."
"They look like people from Yue, but their clothes don't look like that."
Zaheer's words caused murmurs among the people around him.
They have been living here all their lives. They have seen some people from other places before, but those people were basically caravans.
They had never seen anyone traveling alone like this before.
“I’ll go take a look,” Zaheer said.
Ayiguna narrowed her eyes and said, "Be careful."
A dozen people walked slowly forward until they saw a man as thin as a monkey running towards them. The man had bright eyes and the clothes he wore looked very simple.
"Hey, where are you from?" Zaheer said in not very standard Vietnamese language.
He listened to what he said while drinking a dozen bottles of alcohol, and what came out of his mouth was a passage of text that he had never heard before but could understand.
"Hello, hello, I'm from the east. Where is this?"
Zaheer chewed on her words, thinking that there might be something wrong with his ears.
I clearly don’t understand, so why can I understand it?
He tried to communicate in his own language, "This is the Kingdom of Gold Sand. You don't know where this is or how you got here."
This place is very far away from the State of Yue. Even with camels, it will take at least five or six days to walk out of the desert, and that's if they don't get lost.
Yidajiujiu tilted his head and felt that the name Jinsha Kingdom sounded really appropriate.
"I got lost and ended up here."
Zaheer looked at her and felt that she didn't look like she was lost. At least her lips should be dry.
He looked Yido up and down, but he quickly noticed that despite Yido's dusty appearance, she looked like she hadn't suffered at all.
This made Zaheer a little wary of her. After all, in this ruthless desert, it was rare for someone to come here safely.
But when he looked around, he found that there was indeed only this person.
"Lost? Then you're lucky to have found your way here."
Zaheer also guessed that this person might have been separated from the caravan and came here by luck.
He thought for a moment and pointed to the city behind him, "Come on, I'll take you into the city. You look like you need a rest."
A dozen alcohols nodded, "Okay."
She just wanted to go into the city, and she didn't bother to think about what this person wanted to do.
Anyway, I have a golden body. Once people don’t need to think about danger, they will become lazy.
She followed Zaheer over, and the people here still stared at her curiously.
Yidajiujiu also looked at them curiously. "I always feel like I'm in a foreign country now, but these people's eyes are also black."
She and Zaheer walked into the city wall and saw that although the buildings in the city were also made of stone, they were really very exotic.
There are buildings on both sides of the street, which look a bit strange but very beautiful.
There is a market right as you enter here, but it looks rather shabby, with basically only local people doing business.
Those people also looked at her.
If it weren't for the golden body, after drinking a dozen bottles of alcohol, I would probably just want to leave quickly.
[This place looks like those remote countries. Their eyes are also similar, the kind that stares at you all the time.]
[Actually, I think it's pretty good to just wander around, or learn about the local history and culture. Isn't that what travel is all about? Broaden your horizons and understand the local culture.]
[It's really worth it. Ten thousand yuan a month for independent travel, safe and secure, and you can also experience the joy of traveling abroad.]
[Are all these pottery items they sell?]
[I think the host is so brave. Even if I had a golden body, I wouldn’t dare to play alone like this.]
Alcohol looked at a pattern on a pottery. There was a sun in the middle of the pattern, with purple and yellow patterns on both sides.
Seeing her staring, Zaheer asked, "Do you like this plate?"
"No, I'm just curious about the pattern," Yidajiu touched his chin.
“This is the totem of our Golden Sand Nation, the Eye of the Sand Sea,” Zaheer said, and began to ask, “Are you from the Kingdom of Yue?”
A dozen alcoholic drinks uttered a cry, "I guess so."
After all, their current base is in Yue State.
"I heard from the caravan that Yue is very prosperous. I like the tea they brought. I tried some and it's delicious," Zaheer muttered. "Did you bring any tea?"
I didn't expect that he would suddenly turn to tea leaves after drinking a dozen bottles of alcohol.
Of course she didn't bring any tea. This time she only brought some necessary things.
So she shook her head, but she didn't expect to see the natives who were looking at her just now lowered their heads.
Even Zaheer, who was standing beside him, lowered his head and turned away, as if he had seen something that should not be seen.
Yida Jiujiu turned his head and saw a group of people in white robes appearing at the city gate. They were carrying something that looked like a bed.
And on it was a woman lying on her side in a golden dress, holding a pure white cat in her arms.
They walked silently, and the people around them seemed to be very afraid of them.
Seeing this, Yiduojiu also lowered his head quickly. No matter what, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. No one looked at her, and she didn't look at anyone else either.
Although she lowered her head, she was still observing the group of mysterious people in white robes with her peripheral vision.
When this group of people in white robes walked, they looked a bit like they were equipped with springs, and they could take a high and light step.
But it also seemed like a robot, as if every step was carefully calculated and the steps were very orderly.
As the white-robed man approached, the noise in the market gradually died down, replaced by an oppressive silence.
No one looked up.
There was no expression on the faces of those men in white robes, they looked like walking statues.
The woman lying on the couch had her eyes closed all the time. She had a veil on her head, which was held down by a crown inlaid with various gems.
Yida Alcohol swallowed and waited for the group to pass.
However, when the man in white robe was about to pass by her, a series of ding-ding-ding sounds were suddenly heard, and those people stopped immediately.
[Fuck, this feels like a horror movie.]
[What on earth are these people doing? It feels like we're in an infinite world. When they show up, everyone freezes and dares not speak.]
[It's definitely not easy. Shouldn't the host shout, "I built this road, I planted this tree," and see if they take you to some dungeon?]
[No, in Sifang City, the tour guide could still rescue him, but here, he'll really just have to stay in the dungeon for a month.]
[It’s over, it’s over. They’ve stopped.]
Yiduojiu now just wanted to get these people to leave quickly. Although she was very curious, she had just arrived in the Kingdom of Jinsha.
She didn't want to stay in the dungeon like that couple.
She simply closed her eyes, but she didn't expect that a slippery touch would suddenly spread across her face.
Until her chin was lifted up and a strange voice came, "Open your eyes."
Yidajiu opened her eyes cautiously and saw that the woman had appeared in front of her without her knowing.
"Golden..."
This person actually has golden eyes.
"Stranger, what are you doing here?" The strange and hoarse voice came again.
Yi Doug only realized now that the woman didn't open her mouth to speak, but the cat in her arms was opening its mouth.
“!!!”
The cat also looked at her with its golden glasses. When she was drunk and being stared at like that, she always had the illusion that this person was the cat.
The cat has become a spirit?
But this is not the world of martial arts!
