Chapter Ninety-Six: The Pool
"Let's go!"
A small tent was given to Mo Li, and his entourage also got on the flying beast of the guards, and I shouted.
Suddenly, the flying demonic beast slowly took off under the control of the controller, and gradually pulled up. The whole picture of Stone Desert City slowly appeared in my eyes, clearly visible, but it was getting farther and farther away, smaller and smaller.
There was a strong wind blowing from the Tagore Desert, the sand and dust were filled, and the flying demonic beast flew towards Yancheng in the southeast direction at a high speed.
The first time Qing Liang sat on a flying demonic beast, his little face was full of nervousness and surprise. She was standing on the edge, her hands clutching the guardrail, staring at the rocky desert city that was rapidly sweeping into the distance beneath her.
I saw tears flowing from the corners of her eyes, so I couldn't help but walk over and ask softly, "Green scales, sand in your eyes?" ”
"Nope."
Qing Liang was a little frightened by me, looked up at me suddenly, raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said timidly:
"Young master, it's Qinglu who is crying."
I was slightly stunned, looked down at the stone desert city that was getting farther and farther away, and suddenly understood.
Stone Desert City is the hometown of Qinglan!
No matter how many unbearable memories there are in Stone Desert City because of the mixed-race problem, this is the land where she was born and raised.
She was born here and grew up here. Fourteen years, countless days and nights, there are sorrows, joys, sadness, and joy.
This city records the bits and pieces of her past and her every growth......
Today, but they will travel far away.
I let out a long sigh, and it was only at this time that I realized that it was not only Xiao Yan who parted, but also Qing Scale.
Looking at Qing Scales, I didn't say anything for a long time, I really didn't know how to comfort her.
"This is the Green Scale Girl, right?"
At this time, a voice suddenly came to mind, I turned my head to look, and couldn't help frowning, it was actually Mo Li, this kid.
When he saw me, he smiled slightly, and said to me, "Brother Nalan, I heard my father say that there is a girl in Stone Desert City, although she is not a fighter, she can control a fourth-order demonic beast!" :”
"I can't help but be curious in my heart, I hope I didn't disturb Brother Nalan."
I raised an eyebrow, vaguely aware that something was wrong. This Mo Li, this Mo family, there are some problems!
The Mo family must have recognized the talent of the green scales - the blue-eyed three-flower pupil!
Originally, the Mo family just grabbed the green scales and wanted to remove her eyeballs and transplant them to Mo Cheng, the great elder of the Mo family.
I thought that now that there was the Nalan family and I was covered with green scales, the Mo family would understand the situation and would give up that unrealistic idea on its own.
But I really didn't expect that the Mo family's courage would be so great that even the Nalan family's tiger whiskers dared to come up and brush it?!
"Girl with green scales, in Xia Moli."
Seeing that I didn't speak, Mo Li thought I had no opinion. He turned around and smiled at Qing Scale, his smile full of grace.
This kid is handsome, and if he is placed in Gama City, he is afraid that it will be enough to provoke the big girls and little daughters-in-law in the city to scream.
But here in the green scales, it is useless. Growing up being bullied since childhood, she has a subconscious vigilance and vigilance against strangers.
I was able to gain the trust of Qing Liang so quickly, in the final analysis, I still borrowed the light of the two brothers Xiao Ding and Xiao Li!
After all, Qinglu has been with Xiao Ding and Xiao Li for almost four years, and he trusts the two brothers very much. And I'm ...... is the brother-in-law of Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.
Xinya and Wu, Qinglu didn't pay much attention to me, and it was easy to trust me.
It's a bit ...... Interesting?!
Qing Liang looked at Mo Li timidly, and subconsciously retreated to my side.
Mo Li was suddenly a little anxious, and a pair of eyes looked around, and finally landed on Qing Scale's arm.
There was a small red snake entangled, but it was a smaller fire spirit snake, and the green scales only discovered today that it could become smaller.
"Green Scale Girl, this is that fourth-order fire spirit snake, right?"
The smile on his face suddenly bloomed, and he sighed with a hint of longing: "The green scale girl is really powerful, she can actually control a fourth-order demonic beast......"
"Miss Green Scales, can you tell me how exactly you control this fourth-order demonic beast? It must have been a dangerous situation. ”
Ignoring him, Green Scale hid beside me, eyes on me.
I raised my hand and touched her head, smiled on my face, and whispered, "Qinglu, go back to the tent and play with Mei'er." ”
Green Scale nodded, and obediently ran into the tent. Mo Li was a little anxious, but he couldn't stop it, he turned his head to look at me, squeezed out a smile on his face, and said:
"I heard my father say that yesterday's battle with Queen Medusa was commanded by Brother Nalan?"
"Brother Nalan is really a god, and he has been given such a heavy responsibility by the family before he has reached the crown, so he must be the next patriarch of the Nalan family."
"Mo Li is here, congratulations to Brother Nalan first!"
This guy is going to have trouble.
I sneered in my heart, and looked at him quietly like a clown, expressionless and silent.
A moment later, another moment, Mo Li became embarrassed, and also felt that something was wrong, looked at me and asked hesitantly:
"Brother Nalan...... Why do you look at me like this? ”
I turned my head and looked to the east, which was in the direction of Yancheng. After a pause, I asked leisurely:
"Mo Li, do you know why Yancheng is called Yancheng?"
Mo Li was stunned for a moment, not understanding what I was asking for. This question is known to anyone with a little knowledge, and he has been told by his elders since he was a child.
"Why is Yancheng called Yancheng...... That's because near Yancheng, there is the largest and best quality salt pond in the entire Gama Empire, and even in the surrounding more than a dozen countries-Xichi! ”
Mo Li clasped his hands and said proudly.
Salt, although this thing is not as expensive as the pill, but it is better than the quantity.
And everyone can't live without it!
If the peasants do not eat salt, they have no strength to work in the fields; If a soldier doesn't eat salt, he won't have the strength to fight!
The Gama Empire was not near the sea, so it could not boil sea salt, and could only survive on salt ponds and well salt.
And Xichi, the salt produced every year, accounts for seventy percent of the total salt production of the entire Garma Empire! There is even a surplus to sell to nearby countries that lack salt, what a fortune is this?!
But now, of course, I don't want to talk to Mo Li about this huge wealth.
What's more, Xichi has never completely belonged to the Mo family, they are at most an agent.
"Mo Li, I heard that the salt of Xichi, your Mo family divides it into three grades, which three grades?"
Mo Li raised his eyebrows and said, "The best is white salt, which is made into a tiger shape." It is only supplied to the royal family, the Yunlan Sect, and the three major families such as Brother Nalan. ”
"The second is green salt, made into the shape of a horse, and sold to those small local families and small forces."
"Again, it is coarse salt, because it contains more impurities, mixed colors, and bitter taste. But it is also the cheapest, the most producing, and sold to those civilians. ”
I nodded thoughtfully, turned my head to look at Mo Li, with a smile on my face, and said:
"Mo Li, as one of the four major families in the north, your Mo family should eat white salt logically - but I heard that your Mo family never eats high-grade tiger-shaped white salt, only medium-sized horse-shaped green salt?"
