Cosma Empire

Du Lin left. After the executive officer from the imperial capital read out the final resolution of the cabinet, Du Lin expressed on the spot that he was willing to accept the cabinet's resolution and left the city of Odis without any protest. When the news of Du Lin's departure spread, many people couldn't believe it was true. He left without making a fuss? And left behind a bunch of riches?

This may be a trap, a trap, maybe Dulin is still hiding in a certain corner of the city...

Durin had really gone, and three days later he was standing in the first city where the wild west and center of the Empire bordered.

When it comes to the west, most of people's impressions of the west come from some film and television works. There are grass balls and yellow sand pushed by the noisy wind everywhere, and those who may appear anytime and anywhere on horseback with guns. Robbers and sheriffs, of course, people's deepest impression of the West is actually gold.

Gold rush and gold diggers have always been the hottest topic in the west and the west. A vein with medium gold reserves can form an ecological circle with a population of between 100,000 and 200,000. It can be said that gold in the western part of the empire It's everything, everything revolves around gold.

Good, bad, and neither.

"The air here is very dry..." Dufo looked at this... city, it should be a city, but there are no concrete and asphalt roads like other places here, and the dust all over the ground makes the city look It's like it's about to go to waste. There are wooden houses everywhere, and they are not very high. The tallest house is only three stories high. To say that this is a city is better to say that this is a ruin that is about to be submerged in sand and dust.

Du Lin was standing at the station with a suitcase. Before he came, he had contacted the Guarts here, and someone would come to pick them up. He was also looking at the city. To be honest, it is very dilapidated and backward, but obviously, this is actually a tourist city.

Yes, a tourist city, this is also the only tourist city in the western part of the empire, there are always some people who have watched movies about the western part and want to go to the western part of the empire to experience the wild life. But in fact, those wild lives are not only not fun at all, but also very dangerous. Survival in the wild in the west needs to face two of the most terrifying things. The first thing is those animals that are used to eating meat, such as Gobi wolves, black lions and countless jackals.

None of these animals are easy to deal with. The reason why Gobi wolves are not called coyotes is because these wolves living in the Gobi are completely different from the common coyotes in other places. Gobi wolves have yellowish-brown fur, making it difficult to spot these top predators of the west when they are prostrate on the Gobi. Their bodies are more slender and their limbs are more developed. The most terrible thing is that their number and predation methods are more cruel.

In order to capture a prey, Gobi wolves may create a hunting plan that lasts for several days, until the prey is completely desperate and still slaughtered by them. Some biologists believe that the Gobi wolf is a kind of intelligent creature, otherwise they would not be able to formulate some hunting plans, let alone the ability of division of labor and cooperation that only intelligent creatures have.

The second black-haired lion is rare in the Gobi, but there are many in those corrupted rocks. The black-haired lions hunt at night, and they can clearly see things within at least 150 meters at night. At the same time, they have Excellent hearing. Traces of them can be seen near many mines. For these top hunters at night, the place where humans gather is equivalent to their canteen. Some people will be eaten every few days in some simple places. news.

The last one is actually not scary in terms of individuals, they are very thin, but what can be compared with the other two predators is the number. If you haven't seen dozens and hundreds of wild dogs hunting at the same time, you must not have imagined that this little thing that seems to be able to kill with one punch can actually have such a terrifying hunting ability.

This is only the first point, the second thing is more dangerous than the first point,

That's the humans that appeared in the wild.

They may look like caravans passing by, or pedestrians shuttling on the Gobi. When you think they are not dangerous, they will often shoot you secretly. Then take your belongings, horses, and sometimes while it's hot.

Humans are always more dangerous than animals, because when you see those predators, you will be mentally prepared, know that these things will bring harm and danger, and come up with countermeasures. But when you see a person, your first thought will never be "kill him before he kills me", so humans in the wild are the most dangerous creatures in the west!

In order to prevent those movie fans and idlers who have not experienced the fun of the wild in the wild west and become the food in the stomachs of animals, it is also for economic construction, so there is this city, everything They are all built according to the pictures in the movie, and many people will come here to travel except in winter.

After waiting for about ten minutes, a...a wooden cart that is commonly used in the countryside to pull things or hay appeared in sight of the two of them. The two pack horses were shivering in the cold wind, and their hair was about to stand on end.

"Mr. Du Lin, I'm very sorry for being a bit late. The road ahead is temporarily closed, so I can only take a short detour." The coachman took the initiative to jump down from the position of the groom. Two thick cloaks were pressed on the pack horses, so that it seemed to dress the two pack horses.

Du Lin nodded, then turned over and climbed into the truck with Dufo, "You don't have a car?"

"Car?" The coachman smiled shyly, "The mayor does not allow any modern things to appear here, especially during the peak tourist season. All citizens here must wear clothes that are more than a hundred years old. In order to maintain the original taste of the West."

Duffer couldn't help laughing out loud, "It doesn't seem easy to live here, can't you have modern things in your home?"

The coachman returned to the carriage, pulled the rein and shook it, "Of course not, you may not know how curious those tourists are about our life, they may break into your home anytime and anywhere, and then ask to stay for one night to experience life .all the modern stuff will ruin their experience, I feel like we are primitive. The only consolation is that we don't need to work, the city hall will give us the necessities and necessary supplies for free, and pay us an income , ten yuan plus twenty silver coins per person per month."

"silver?"

The coachman took out a silver coin that looked like a silver coin from his pocket, and he handed it to Du Lin, who flipped it a few times in his hand. On the front it has a... a chief with chicken feathers and twigs in his head, dressed up in a very different way or something, and the reverse has a crossed hatchet and spears, and a shell at the bottom.

In the driver's explanation, Du Lin gradually understood the meaning of this thing. To put it simply, this is a kind of local currency, worth about fifteen cents. These silver coins can be used as settlement props when trading in the city. It has a similar purpose to the tokens on Durin's side. But these silver coins are not open to tourists, they are purely a prop that can only be used among local people, and they cannot buy valuables, only food and the like.

Along the way, Du Lin sighed that there are still some "smart" people in this empire. This city has attracted many tourists in an alternative form. In addition to the normal sightseeing experience life, there are many activities and alternative activities. Experience, such as harnessing horses and cattle, galloping on horses within a limited range, and even playing with bows and arrows.

This is like a miniature of an era in a modern world, and it can indeed attract many people to travel here.

The coachman took Du Lin directly to the church in the "city". As soon as he opened the door of the church, a gust of heat gushed out from the door, which made people feel inexplicably relieved.

A very burly guy in his thirties stepped forward and stretched out his hand, warmly holding Du Lin's hand tightly, "Mr. Du Lin, I heard that you are coming here, all of us are very excited I look forward to the arrival of this day. Thank you for everything you have done to us and to all Guart people!", this burly man is called Ikot, and he is the branch president of the local association here, with considerable reputation. One of the conditions for selecting a branch president.

After he introduced Doolin and Dufer into the church, he walked and said, "The mayor does not allow us to build any buildings outside the plan, so we can only hold activities in this public church. This time, all local Guar All the special families have sent representatives, and everyone is very happy!"

When Du Lin walked down a road and entered the cathedral hall, everyone in the hall stood up, and all eyes focused on him with curiosity, doubt, gratitude, excitement, and so on. This is not the first time such a scene has happened, Du Lin naturally would not be stage frightened, he kept nodding or saying hello to the people around him, making the atmosphere in the hall very active.

When Du Lin walked to the host stage, people sat back on the bench at his request. He looked at these people, glanced at their faces, and said with a confident smile, "We are all First time meeting, some of you may have heard of me, my name is Durin, Durin Kesma. It is a great honor for me to stand here and say something to you, which is one of the purposes of my coming here .”

"I'm no different from everyone here..." He raised his hand and kicked his feet, showing his ordinaryness, "But it's a little different, because I'm unwilling, I don't want to, I can't Endure!"
