"You are really right. I heard that there is a mysterious weapon buried in the sea of sand under our feet. This weapon is powerful enough to destroy everything! But smart people know that it is just goblins, those green
It was just one of those crazy moments for the skinny dwarfs."
As the sand man spoke, he looked at the camel beast behind Wang Wei.
"Human Greenland, do you have any extra fresh water? I have almost used up my water. I will pay you five gold coins for a bag of water."
Business in the desert is actually the most profitable. In such a harsh environment, those who can traffic in goods that are not available elsewhere will naturally receive a lot of material rewards.
But everyone knows that there is definitely only one most precious thing in the desert, and that is water. The price of this thing is very high, and sometimes you may not be able to buy it with a cart of gold.
But now, Wang Wei happily threw over a bag of water and stretched out his finger. The other party even happily threw over a small bag with ten gold coins in it. Anyone who dares to do business in such a place
People generally have the same characteristics, that is, they are strong enough and don't like to cause trouble, so the other party does not care about the other party's hidden price. Obviously, to him, the price of this bag of water far exceeds the reward.
, so he will not take into account the other party's temporary price increase.
After all, this guy is only one person, and the sand people are indeed an entire caravan.
"To be honest, brother, you don't look like a real businessman. I guess you are also here for that legendary weapon, right?"
The sand man poured water into his mouth and said enthusiastically to Wang Wei.
"That's right."
Wang Wei was noncommittal. He knew that he really didn't look like a businessman and he lacked enough snobbery.
"If you can give me six gold coins, I will give you a piece of information. What do you think?"
Sandman said with a smile.
"If you give me this information for free, I will ensure that you can leave here alive. What do you think?"
Wang Wei also said with a smile, and then handed over six gold coins. Sha Renshi always maintained this smile, but when Wang Wei spoke, his eye sockets also jumped, but it was covered up well.
"I heard that the goblins and the elders of the Kui tribe have been very close recently. I wonder if it has something to do with this treasure."
This time, Sandman didn't talk too much nonsense, but directly told everything he knew, and then turned back to his team. Wang Wei sincerely thanked the other party for the news, which seemed to give him a lot of tips.
The city of the Kui people is built underground, and there is a huge sand cave on the ground. It is obvious that in this desert, almost every race has a skill that can solidify the sand. This sand cave is completely in a
The completely solidified sand dune looked quite spectacular, with various creatures walking back and forth in the hole. Wang Wei easily entered the sand cave. There were no guards here, and no one could
It was easy to get in and out, but some tools were needed to actually get in. Several Kui tribesmen sat on the bipedal animals Wang Wei had seen before, and ran over almost quickly. Each of them seemed to
He knows many languages. Before, Wang Wei saw them using a language he didn't understand, but now they use lingua franca to Wang Wei.
"Hey! Big guy! If you want to enter here, you need a good sandworm! Come and try ours. Our sandworms are fed with the best feed. Their bodies are fat and they can swim in the sea of sand.
Smooth and comfortable, there is nothing more comfortable than this!”
"Don't listen to him! Come and try ours. Our sandworms are light in size and much faster than theirs! It seems that you are the kind of person whose time is very precious. How can I waste your time on the road?
Woolen cloth?"
Several Kuai tribesmen made Wang Wei feel uncomfortable by arguing with each other, so he simply ordered someone's order at random.
Following the Kui people, Wang Wei went underground. It wasn't until he entered here that Wang Wei knew that the Kui people were indeed a smart race. They had already made full use of underground transportation!
More than a dozen sandworms are lined up in the wide cave. This creature, which is two times larger than the train siren, has small holes all over its body that can accommodate passengers. It is not as comfortable as in the train, but the space
It's enough for one person to do some less strenuous activities inside.
After waiting for less than half an hour, the sandworm began to move. Wang Wei truly felt that the speed of this creature in the sand was indeed extraordinary. Especially when the speed was added up, it was no slower than a galloping horse.
How many!
After traveling for nearly an hour, the sandworm finally arrived at its destination, the largest city in the Que tribe, an underground city called the Heart of the Sand Sea.
Looking around, the lines of every building here are full of circles, and they are also the shape that seems to be formed by being squeezed. The light here is dim, and it seems that the buildings and walls themselves have luminous
Effects and abilities, there are all kinds of weird creatures running back and forth here, some have some human characteristics, and some can't be seen at all. However, most of the creatures here have one characteristic, either they have carapace on their body,
Either it has scales on its body, which are the kind of features that can prevent too much water from being lost in the desert.
This place is not as orderly as a human place. In the most open space in the city, many merchants pile their goods there. If others need anything, they can exchange their goods for it. Of course, human gold coins are also universal here.
of.
Since Wang Wei is a businessman, he naturally cannot act too special, but he still needs to find a way to get in touch with the superiors. After all, as a businessman, you will never be able to meet the leader of the Kuoi tribe.
After taking a glance at the market, Wang Wei came to an empty place, tied the camel beast behind him, and then took out some fruits from the camel beast's pocket, which Wang Wei had just taken out from the ring before entering here.
When he came out, he filled a clay pot with some ice cubes and water, and then soaked the fruits in the ice water.
The sound of the collision of ice and the flow of water immediately attracted everyone's attention. Water resources here are very scarce. Even in such a deep underground, there are only some small seepage points of groundwater, and they are still controlled by heavy troops and sold at high prices.
. Now this guy who came out of the wet house not only has water, but also ice cubes, and is also using ice water to soak fruits?
"Dude! Dude! Are you new here?"
A guy next to Wang Wei who looked like a big cockroach whispered to Wang Wei in ugly common language.
"That's right, new here."
Wang Wei took out an already cold fruit from the ice water, shook off the water droplets on it, and threw it directly into his mouth. The pulp made a crisp sound, which was clearly distinguishable in the noisy market.
"If you can give me a glass of water, I will tell you a secret that is guaranteed to be worth more than the value of the glass of water you give me."
It seems that businessmen in the desert like to play the black box game and let people bet, but maybe this is the rule?
Wang Wei took the big cup handed over by the other party, and slowly poured him a cup from the basin with crushed ice cubes and water. The cockroach's hands trembled when he took the cup. He took a sip carefully, and then
Make an exaggerated swallowing sound.
"This is ice. It turns out this is ice. I have finally seen ice cubes! No one can say that I am a bumpkin from now on! Hahahaha!"
The large cockroach drank the ice water in sips excitedly. Wang Wei saw that he seemed to be addicted, so he simply clenched his fists.
The popping sound between the joints made the cockroach immediately realize that there seemed to be something to do, so he carefully covered the cup, held it in his arms, and then whispered to Wang Wei.
"If I were you, I would leave here right now. The Que people have strict control over water. No one can bring too much water in the underground city, not to mention you have ice! You will be caught
Take the one who finds water for them!”
Cockroach said with a fearful look.
“Is finding water scary?”
Wang Wei is very strange.
"Looking for water is not scary, but they will tie you to the mouth of the sandworm! Let the sandworm take you to find it!"
The large cockroach narrowed his eyes and said to Wang Wei.
"That's really handsome."
Wang Wei was laughing when there was a sudden noise at the end of the market, accompanied by the roar of some monsters.
"Oh my god, Greenland humans! Hurry up and hide your things, their guards are coming!"
The big cockroach opened his mouth and poured the remaining ice and water into his stomach. Then he held his stomach in pain and said to Wang Wei.
"No matter how much water you bring, as long as the water you carry does not exceed a certain amount, they will not care. Some mages from the green area will even drink a lot of water, and then use the recycling method to bring the water in!"
Cockroach was very conscientious. Even though his stomach hurt from being frozen, he still insisted on explaining to Wang Wei. But for Wang Wei, is there any way to meet the Kuoi officials faster than this?
The so-called guards soon appeared in everyone's sight. Although the Kui people were just small things, they had to admit that the creatures they controlled were indeed amazing. They were all very vicious-looking guys. For example, they appeared in front of everyone now.
