Liban, an inconspicuous third-level administrative planet in the vast territory of the empire, has gradually become different due to two edicts from Tianjing Star a few years ago. The establishment of the Imperial Tourism Special Zone, the exaggerated investment of the Ministry of Finance, the presence of countless nobles and wealthy businessmen, and the inter-racial education pilots strictly implemented by His Majesty, turned this planet into the center of discussion among the people of the Empire.
It can become a special tourist area and divide the wealth of the nobles on behalf of His Majesty the emperor. Libanxing naturally has enough beautiful scenery, whether it is the spectacular Chiling in the western hemisphere, the fog barrier in the sky on the pine green, and the tens of thousands of yellow stone alum thorns into the sky. The peaks in the mountains are all rare beauty, which fully proves the nature's carving skills like ghosts and gods.
There is also the most beautiful scenery from Banxing, that is, the group of mulberry trees that spread over the flat field. Tens of thousands of square kilometers of mulberry tree vegetation are divided into countless operating areas by artificial areas.
Mulberry trees, and the larvae of some kind of moth insect that accompanies them, are the planet's most famous specialties, aside from its natural beauty and the state's new universities. Many years ago, the fabric woven from the silk spit out by these moth larvae became the favorite luxury item of the imperial aristocracy. It's amazing that, except for Lisaka Star, the countless planets in the Empire can't find a bad environment that is completely suitable for the kind of delicate little larvae.
The extremely expensive silk entered the Federation along with a big collision between the universes. For decades, the only cargo eligible to venture into Bermuda with the Royal Special Mecha Warriors was silk.
With this smuggling, the Empire has seized a lot of wealth from Bermuda and the upper echelons of the Commonwealth. Although this wealth is far from enough to offset the Empire's military spending, it may be based on some emotional childish considerations - we have it, you don't, You have to wait for us to deliver, so we are superior to you - the imperial family has always condoned and even strongly supported silk smuggling.
The federal side has tried to win this childish quarrel, but the toughest wildlife protection laws and HTD bureau officials who always like to wear iron masks in public prevent the federals from planting mulberry trees and cooking the larvae in warm water Attempts to weave white clumps...
The Federal Academy of Sciences has also tried to use biological methods to recombine, but without the technical support of the Charter Bureau's biological protein, they found that this attempt would cost a lot of money, so they had to terminate the plan and continue to buy silk underwear, silk brocade quilts smuggled from Bermuda , silk bras, silk breast pads... everything made of silk is hidden in privacy.
Two thin young tourists are walking on a street in the southern district of Libanxing Sangzhizhou. The silk clothes they wear are not particularly conspicuous. Compared with the local residents, it is easy to reveal the identity of tourists, but these There are too many tourists on Nianli Banxing, and it is difficult for these two people with ordinary faces to attract anyone's attention.
In addition to the hundreds of well-trained professional soldiers in the four blocks, these soldiers in charge of secret security work, with a sullen face, pay attention to their every move, and watch the wind and grass around them vigilantly.
The two young tourists did not look like close friends who traveled together, because when one of them coughed uncomfortably and squinted his eyes to tears, the other showed no concern at all and remained indifferent. Okay, there is a chill in the slightly squinted eyes.
Xu Le felt that his lungs were filled with scalding smoke, and his throat was filled with red-hot pebbles. He coughed extremely hard and was very uncomfortable. , struggling to stand up.
The blood hole on his shoulder temporarily stopped the bleeding, and the strange force that was wedged into his body by the imperial officer was still tormenting him all the time, preventing him from running the power to repair his body, like a slowly spinning boulder, constantly grinding, to put All he wishes to grind and smash.
It is very strange that he came to this unfamiliar imperial planet from the Red Rose Royal Spaceship, and he still did not die, nor was he thrown into a dark prison where the sun did not see the light. Follow the young Imperial officer and enjoy the scenery on this beautiful planet.
In a very short few days, he stood on the spaceship and overlooked the spectacular Chiling in the Western Hemisphere. Those blood-like waves nearly 100 meters high swayed that hard heart; Respirator, standing in the fog barrier of the pine green, climbing hard all night, Fang began to break through the clouds, standing on the ridge to see the first ray of morning light, the wet morning dew moistened his aching lungs and felt a little relieved. Cool; he also strapped a small jet device on his back, like a natural bird, flying in the strange and indescribable yellow stone alum rising to the sky and the pinnacles...
During the former Tai dynasty, prisoners always had a good meal and a full meal before they died. Now in the empire, although it is also a monarchical society, Ke Xu Le does not think that these are the benefits before his death. It is ridiculous. .
He stroked his chest, which was cut by the tip of a spear, shook his head and exhaled, stood up, looked at the young imperial officer who had been more than ten meters away, stretched out his hands and rubbed his somewhat stiff face hard until he rubbed it. After showing a few indifferent smiles, he strode up to catch up.
A brunette with scruffy hair on the street is holding a little girl's hand and saying something. They are probably father and daughter, because they both have a pair of beautiful sky blue eyes, and the curve of the lower jaw seems to have been carved by the same sculptor. It's just like that, but I don't know why there is a dispute. Some of the worn clothes are wrinkled and broken between the big hands and the little hands, and the little girl cried.
On the back wall of the restaurant on the right hand, a black dog ran quickly, with a simple and honest bone in its sharp mouth. The black dog ran very resolutely and had a clear purpose. The beggar with rice jumped over half the broken wall and ran towards the mulberry forest in the suburbs.
At the turn of the road ahead, a boss-like figure in silk clothes is talking down to a farmer. The reason why he is condescending is because the farmer with a box under his arm is talking and his body is getting lower and lower, and he seems to be kneeling. .
Beside the two, the listless middle-aged man should be a soldier, the tourist in front should be a soldier, and the carriage driver behind him who had been following him for half an hour should also be a soldier. Around this seemingly peaceful block, all the their people.
Xu Le walked behind the young imperial officer, walking silently, observing the surrounding environment. If he couldn't understand what the imperial people were thinking, then stop thinking about it. His best ability is to simplify complicated things. .
He simply regarded himself as a tourist. It was rare for him to go deep into the territory of the empire. He looked at this strange world, listened to the unfamiliar and incomprehensible languages of people in the streets, and looked at the animal-drawn carts that surprised him, and vaguely grasped why At that time, the uncle said that he was willing to wander in the universe, but he could not clearly explain this feeling.
Before the vast green sanghai, Huaicao Shi stopped, slowly put his hands behind him like an old man, raised his cheeks slightly, squinted his eyes and took a deep breath of fresh air.
Where the eyes fell, the mulberry leaves fluttered in the wind, and it seemed that the rustling sounds could be heard only with vision without using ears. Shasha, Shasha, the sound of mulberry leaves being blown by the wind is also the sound of being eaten by Can'er... The most honorable young man in the empire, a gentle smile suddenly appeared on his indifferent cheeks, as if thinking of a certain some fun childhood memories.
The smile gradually faded, and Huai Cao Shi only allowed memories to flood into his mind occasionally, and occasionally he was touched by the four seasons of spring and autumn, and he had to restore absolute calm immediately.
"Although I really don't understand, I still want to thank you for showing me so many beautiful scenery."
Xu Le coughed twice, and looked at Sang Shuhai in front of him with concentration and surprise. He was standing side by side with Huai Cao Shi at this time, and he had no consciousness of the death row, nor did he notice the anger in the eyes of the plainclothes soldiers around him.
Huaicao Shi glanced at him coldly from the corner of his eye, but did not answer, but a strange color flashed in his eyes.
If there is no accident, the federal person around him will be tortured to death after all the value has been drained, unless he agrees to defect. He had absolutely no sympathy for this, just curious about Xu Le's performance at the moment.
The war has lasted for decades, and the Empire has captured many federal soldiers, even high-ranking officers. Those federal soldiers who knew they were going to die include those who scolded the emperor with impassioned enthusiasm, those who were cowardly crying and kneeling on the ground begging for death, and some who were silent. There are also people who laugh and pretend not to care, but there are very few people who can really immerse themselves in the scenery in front of them before dying like this person.
The Red Rose is temporarily resting, Huaicaoshi is like a tourist hiding in Libanxing, and he is not in a hurry to return to Tianjingxing, because the political situation of the empire has been surging in the past few days. He needs to be outside the bureau and replace his father The emperor will see the situation more clearly, and as the person involved, returning to Tianjing Xing one day later will definitely help the emperor to deal with the situation.
As for why he took Xu Le with him when watching the scenery, it was based on two very simple reasons. One of them was that a dangerous person like Xu Le would not find any chance to escape unless he took care of him personally.
"I checked your details, and you seem to be a perfect moral person, like a saint." Huaicao Shi said slightly sarcastically, "Don't be in a hurry to deny it, your government is creating you according to the saints."
"I really want to know, if you are really a saint, will you feel ashamed or ashamed because of your inner morality, and will you realize your sins before you die." Huaicao Shi walked slowly forward. After a few steps, he turned around on the mound and looked down at him.
"Sin? I'm not a perfect moral person. I peeped at the skirts of female police officers when I was a child, but when it comes to sin, only some innocent people I didn't intend to kill would make me realize this, but... " Xu Le Answered: "Absolutely not including the Imperials."
Huaicao Shi was expressionless, and suddenly asked, "What do you think of the scenery of my empire?"
"It's beautiful and spectacular." Xu Le answered honestly.
"Trying to invade our country and turn these beautiful landscapes into a hell of war. As a federal soldier, shouldn't you feel guilty?"
