Rise From Doomsday Chapter 1624: 、Blackwood City
In the distance, there is a city built against a mountain, the whole body is black, if it is at night, I am afraid that I can't see anything.
"This is Blackwood City?" Liu Weian sat on the chariot, quite curious. There are still five or six kilometers away from Blackwood City. He has good eyesight, and other people need the help of binoculars, but he doesn't.
At first, I thought that there would be many dangers on the road, but who knew, the road was smooth and came directly to the range of Blackwood City. Apart from encountering other caravans on the road, I didn't encounter a single zombie.
"Yes, Black Wood City is not as big as the Ancient City of Moon." Loris Tanggula was named and accompanied by Liu Wei'an. .
Last time, Liu Weian was a benefactor. He had to be polite and grateful. At the same time, he thought that he would not meet again in the future. He was more free and easy, and he spoke casually. But this time, no matter how he adjusts in his heart, he can't let it go. Well, Liu Weian is already the uncrowned king of "The Ancient City of the Moon". With a single word from him, the entire Yu clan, more than 200,000 people, was wiped out.
Don't talk about him, even the current regiment leader Cao Junjun is respectful in front of Liu Wei'an.
"I thought it was black wood, but it turned out to be black stone." Liu Wei'an said. The walls of Blackwood City are made of a kind of black stone. He has never seen such a stone. However, judging from the structure of Blackwood City, the density of this black stone is not small.
"This is a fossil, a fossil of a black tree." Slow Slow Tanggula explained.
"Fossils? Trees?" Liu Wei'an was very surprised, "Were there trees on Mars before?" Blackwood City is black, and the mountain is also black. It is almost unnecessary to guess that the material of Blackwood City is excavated from the mountain.
The formation of fossils takes tens of millions of years. Tens of millions of years ago, there were no humans.
"According to the research, there are, otherwise, there is no way to explain this black tree fossil." Loris Tanggula said.
"Mars is still very mysterious." Liu Wei'an said, human technology has gone out of the solar system, but on Mars, there are still many secrets that cannot be answered.
The chariot stopped suddenly, and the market in front of it was very lively with businessmen coming and going.
"This is not a market for cattle and horses, it is clearly a market for people and horses." Liu Weian got out of the car, and Huang Yueyue, Fang Xiaoyuan, Yang Wujiang, Slow Loris Tanggula and others also got out of the car.
This market has two main functions, one is trading and the other is transit. "Blackwood City" is a very conservative city, and modern technology is not allowed to enter, not to mention vehicles such as chariots, and even electronic watches are fined if they are found.
The city lord of "Blackwood City" is an antique over a hundred years old, and the cardinal is also an antique over a hundred years old. It is conceivable how conservative the city managed by the two antiques is.
So, there are caravans coming from outside, and they must be converted into human-powered carts here. Before the end, there are ox carts and horse-drawn carts. After the end, all the cattle and horses are dead, and only human carts are left.
"They're all evolutionaries." Yang Wujiang was a little surprised. The evolutionists were human pushers. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn't believe it. After the apocalypse, the original hierarchy has changed. Those who have acquired the ability to evolve will automatically increase their status. Those who were originally rich and powerful, if they are still ordinary people, will quietly decline in status.
In the face of the threat of death, combat power determines the right to speak.
"The economy of Blackwood City is very poor. If you don't work, you will starve to death." Loris Tanggula explained.
"What about ordinary people?" Pig Dachang asked, all evolved people have to work, wouldn't ordinary people die of exhaustion?
"As long as you are devout to the true God, you don't have to worry about starving to death." Loris Tanggula's words make people not understand, "Whoever believes in me will live forever"?
Human carts may seem simple, but because they are evolutionaries, they are infinitely powerful. One person can pull up to 2-3 tons. Therefore, the freight is not cheap, which is about 5 times that of an equivalent truck.
"No wonder there are not many caravans willing to come to Blackwood City." Huang Yueyue didn't have to worry about money since she was a child, but she also knew that such a high labor cost would inevitably reduce the profits of merchants. I don't want to do it anymore.
It was only when I entered the city that I discovered that the uniqueness of Blackwood City is far more than that. First of all, the number of people entering the city is limited. In view of the capacity of Blackwood City and its security capabilities, the number of people entering the city is stipulated every day. Liu Wei'an now I understand the reason why Loris Tanggula asked him not to bring so many people in. Only half of them entered Blackwood City, and the other half had no quota today and could only wait until tomorrow.
There is also the poll tax for entering the city, which is 20 times higher than that of the Moon Ancient City. Yang Wujiang was extremely shocked.
"With such a high tariff, isn't Blackwood City afraid that no merchants will come here?"
"There is a treasure in Blackwood City, which makes the caravan have to come." Loris Tanggula said.
"Lanxiang fungus." Fang Xiaoyuan's heart skipped a beat.
"Exactly!" Loris Tanggula nodded.
When entering the city, Blackwood City inspected it very carefully. Items related to modern technology are either not allowed to enter or must be reported. If you are blacklisted, you will never be able to enter Blackwood City again.
"Wonderful city!" Yan Shisan, the prodigal son, was quite speechless. Because he admired individuality, he wore leather jackets, leather pants, and artificial leather. As a result, he was found not to comply with the regulations of Blackwood City, and he was warned not to wear artificial leather materials to enter. Either don't go in, or take it off.
Yan Shisan had to take off his clothes and changed into cotton clothes before he was able to enter. Zhu Dachang and Lu Laocan laughed loudly, and the old and prudent leader Yang couldn't help laughing.
Walking into Heimu City, it seems to have entered another world. The old buildings, narrow roads, ancient carvings, and everything are incompatible with the modern city full of feasting and feasting.
"Before I was in the city-state of Gulast, I thought it was very ancient. Only when I came here did I realize that the city-state of Gulast is not ancient at all. This place is truly ancient. I feel like I have traveled to ancient times." Huang Yueyue Caressing the old wooden bed, on the beams, there are still a few cobwebs that haven't been cleaned.
The dim oil lamp makes people suspect that it will go out at any time. I am used to the bright electric light, but suddenly seeing this kind of oil lamp, I have a weird feeling of novelty and absurdity.
A room like this costs half a gold coin for one night.
"It's the first time I sleep on a round bed. I don't know if it really has the effect of improving sleep as the store said." Liu Wei'an said with a smile.
Rich people can build various styles of beds according to their preferences, but this is the first time he has seen a round bed in a hotel.
"I can't sleep." Huang Yueyue immediately said, if there are other choices, she doesn't like to sleep in this kind of bed, and I don't know how many people have slept in it.
"Let's go, let's eat something first." Liu Weian was not hungry, he just wanted to see the situation of "Blackwood City". A city is the living environment, which can be seen from the aspect of food.
The food in "Black Wood City" is similar to that in "Moon Ancient City", potatoes, corn, soybeans, and corn juice and soy milk, but the price is much more expensive, almost three times that of Moon Ancient City.
With such a high price, it is no wonder that those homeless people are hesitant to "Blackwood City". Coming from the Ancient Moon City, they encountered many caravans and homeless people along the way. There are almost no comments on Blackwood City. is positive.
After eating, Liu Wei'an was about to go out to have a look, but he heard the sound of Dangdang on the street, and then someone warned everyone in Mayan language not to go out, and immediately went back to the house and used two Word summary: Curfew.
Liu Wei'an looked at Loris Tanggula, who was also stunned.
"There is a curfew on the 5th, 15th and 25th of every month in Blackwood City, and there is generally no curfew at other times, unless something happened. I didn't hear anything happened today."
He didn't get any news, and after entering Blackwood City, he also felt that the city was very peaceful, and it didn't look like something happened.
"Could something happen temporarily?" Fang Xiaoyuan asked.
Loris Tanggula has no way to answer this question. Once the curfew is imposed, no one can appear on the street except the guards of the city lord's mansion and the clergy of the church. To kill. "Angel Mercenary Group" has a branch in Blackwood City, but in this situation, there is no way to convey information~IndoMTL.com~It's only eight o'clock. "The prodigal son Yan Shisan glanced at the time, the nightlife has just begun, and there is a curfew, Blackwood City is too unfriendly.
"Taking this opportunity, everyone have a good rest." Liu Weian glanced at Yan Shisan and returned to the room first. Everyone returned to their rooms one after another. Yan Shisan rose into the air at the corner and left the hotel through a window with a diameter of only 20 centimeters.
The bed in the hotel is round, and the windows are also round.
"Didn't you eat enough just now?" Back in the room, Liu Weian took out food from the space ring and began to add food. The food in the hotel is small and expensive, let alone adults like them, and they are evolution Ordinary people can't get enough to eat. Huang Yueyue sat down to eat together embarrassingly. She used to eat very little, and half a bowl of rice was enough for dinner. I don't know if she stayed with Liu Wei'an, Sancunding, Daxiang and others for a long time. Under their influence, the appetite also increased.
The food that Liu Wei'an carried with him was all good things, both meat and vegetarian. While eating, Huang Yueyue guessed what might happen in Blackwood City.
Liu Wei'an was relatively calm and didn't make random guesses. When the food was half eaten, the oil lamp shook, and there was an extra person in the room.
"Sister Danxia, you're back." Huang Yueyue exclaimed in surprise, "You haven't eaten yet, sit down and eat together."
Chen Danxia, who was dressed in black, sat down when Liu Wei'an signaled. Before everyone entered Blackwood City, she had already come in one step ahead. If something happened in Blackwood City, she must be the one who knew the most.
