The capital of Jinhu Kingdom is also called the Holy City. In the mouths of the people, she has a very beautiful name.
Holy City Bansai.
Li Huguo was riding a camel, and he saw that the scenery along the way was slowly getting better. The originally desolate plains and dense vegetation near Bansai City had begun to appear, and various coniferous and tropical plants were slowly growing. It slowly became denser.
There were also some lakes, puddles, and some farmland around. What Li Hugo saw and heard along the way was very different, and places like Bansai City were almost the first prosperous city in the past few days.
The sun was very bright, so he covered his eyes with his hands and saw several women in the distance, carrying children on their backs and carrying huge clay pots on their heads, walking on the road. They walked steadily and wore exotic clothes. And he covered his face with gauze, looking full of mystery.
In the Kingdom of Golden Amber, women seem to like to wear smoky makeup, especially those with status. The smoky makeup is more exaggerated. For example, Gong Chuchu’s smoky makeup is very obvious, but her eyes are already big. So it’s not awkward to put on smoky eye makeup.
A group of soldiers came towards them, but when they saw the white camels, they lowered their heads one after another. The soldiers' equipment was very simple. They were bare-chested and wore a pair of shoulder armors on each shoulder. Maybe it was because the weather was too hot, and he didn't have any There are other protective gears, starting from the waist, which is a short leather skirt. The leather is very thick and seems to be the strong hide of some kind of monster.
Their weapons are all drop-shaped shields with various ornate patterns painted on them, as well as a spear with a willow-leaf-shaped spearhead, and the overall spear is thin.
"Do they all recognize you?" Li Yuguo looked at Gong Chuchu and said.
Gong Chuchu smiled and said: "They don't know me, but they know White Camel."
It turns out that white camels are a symbol of power in Bansai City. It is said that there are no more than a hundred white camels in the entire Bansai City. Things are rare and valuable, so naturally only a few people ride white camels.
When he arrived at the city gate, Li Huguo saw huge golden beetle carvings on the top of the city wall. He was amazed for a moment because the city wall was so high and it was the first time he had seen such an exotic city wall.
"That's a scarab. Do you remember the ancient language I told you before?" Gong Chuchu took the trouble to explain to Li Hugo, "In ancient fables, the city of Bansai means the current city of scarabs."
"Scarab City? Bansai City?" Li Hugo frowned, "Bansai City is more convenient."
"Yes, I think so too." Gong Chuchu said, "Uncle, these brothers of the Blackwater Bandits have to be outside the city because they don't have permission to enter the city. Can you follow me in?"
"Let me find a place for the Blackwater brothers to stay first. After all, even if the three brothers can enter Bansai City with us, these brothers will not be able to enter." Li Huguo shrugged.
Butterfly said: "Princess, that's fine. Since we have been away from the palace for so many days, we have to report to the king."
"Okay." Gong Chuchu bit her lip, "Uncle, you are not allowed to run away!"
"Haha, how dare you? I'm still waiting for you to help me introduce the high priest of Lebang." Li Huguo said with a smile.
The three Black Belly Snake brothers followed Li Yuguo. Li Yuguo discovered that the gap between the rich and the poor in this group of Cyber City was quite large. The people inside the city seemed to be some dignitaries, while those outside the city were all peasants and serfs. They are not allowed to enter Bansai City, so it looks very dirty outside.
Efforts can naturally be brought into Bansai City. After all, they are laborers and help their masters work.
"Aren't these the three Blackwater brothers from the north?" A middle-aged man with an open belly said as he came over with a group of people.
Black-bellied Snake crossed his hands, narrowed his eyes and said, "Oh, who did I think it was? It turns out to be you... Leprosy Lao San? So you are hanging out in Bansai City?"
"I have been here for more than half a year, and now there is a camel convoy here." The old man with leprosy looked up and down at the black-bellied snake, "Isn't it good for you in the north? Every day, you block the road and rob, and then go to the nearby town. Find a girl so that one person can be fed and the whole family will not be hungry.”
"Hey, business is hard to do now. Haven't you heard that the Golden Amber Kingdom has started fighting in the north and the Wood Dragon Kingdom, and the borders are not peaceful at all." As he said that, the Black-bellied Snake looked helpless.
The third man with leprosy quickly laid his eyes on Li Yuguo: "Oh, where did this man come from? He is so strong... Is he your new little brother?"
"This is our third boss!" One-eyed Snake came up and said.
"Boss? You, the third brother of Heishui, can actually be submissive to outsiders? I think this kid is only 27 or 28 years old, but his nose is young. Haha... This knife is good." The third man with dysentery said that he was about to stretch out his hand. Go and touch the Xingyue Scimitar on Li Yuguo's waist.
Li Hugo grabbed his wrist: "Don't move."
This grabbing wrist was extremely tight, causing the third child to exclaim: "Oh, broken, broken, let go! Brother, I know wrong."
Li Yuguo let go and continued to stand aside.
The third man with leprosy rolled his eyes and said, "How about this? We were all friends who hung out together before. Today I will be the host and we will go to a nearby restaurant to have a meal together. What do you think?"
"This..." Black-bellied Snake looked at Li Hugo.
Li Yuguo smiled and said, "Are you hungry?"
"Hungry, of course I'm hungry!"
"Just go if you're hungry." Li Huguo said. He wasn't worried about the old man with leprosy making fun of him, or in other words, he really wanted the old man with leprosy to play dirty.
Seeing everyone's ready agreement, the third man with leprosy was also very happy. He immediately invited everyone to a nearby restaurant. He only invited the four of them, Li Huguo, to dinner, so for the remaining brothers, Li Hugo gave them some money and let them go by themselves. Find something to eat.
All this money was taken from the Moon God's Tomb, but not much, just a dozen gold coins. There are hundreds of thousands of gold coins in the Moon God's Tomb. It is a huge treasure house, but this is the Moon God after all. Li Yuguo didn't want to take too many funerary objects, so he still prayed carefully with the Moon God for these. For Li Yuguo, one truth is that the dead are the most important.
There are slums outside the city, so Li Huguo didn't expect the food to be very good. When he came to a restaurant, the food was distributed and the food was very simple.
A piece of pancake with some minced meat on top, sauce and some dried vegetables on the side.
There was also a glass of ale.
Li Yuguo took a sip of the malt wine. It was much better than the one brewed by the Blackwater Bandit himself, but it was not as strong. The mangy third man put down the glass and smacked his lips, revealing a mouth of jagged and rotten teeth. : "Now that the brothers are here, let me tell you something straight. This boss Hugo is a capable man. I have a way to make a fortune here. What do you think? If possible, I am willing to help the brothers. Let’s make a fortune together.”
"Oh?" Black Belly Snake became interested, "What is it?"
The old man with leprosy raised his head, and a look appeared on his dark face: "Selling sugar."
As soon as they mentioned selling sugar, everyone's expressions darkened, because selling sugar, like selling salt, is a capital crime. Black-bellied Snake looked at Li Huguo, who stuffed a piece of dough into his mouth: "Don't look at me, it's illegal. Don't do it, the Pharaoh is in Bansay City."
