Chapter 134 City of Hope (2)

City of Hope is a city, an oasis inside, a priceless treasure in the desert.

The west, the east, the south... It has been a month of drought. Residents in various regions could still rely on the water source of the underground water pool to survive, but now it is no longer possible, the water pool has dried up. In order to survive, they took their belongings and migrated to the north, to hope capital.

Shen Qianli was in the migration team.

She took a cursory look at the crowd and didn't see Gu Lang. She recalled that she fell into the gap in time when she leveled up the game. Could it be that Gu Lang did the same?
So how did she wake him up?
Mu Mukui is a very good person, but he is a bit old, and obviously he can't bear such a long migration.

Shen Qianli asked him to take a rest, put up a thick cloth to block the sun, and let him sit on the spread cloth on the floor. The yellow sand burned his feet, and his heart was burning like anxious... Mu Mukui wanted to go there quickly City of Hope, Shen Qianli is pressing him not to think so much.

There are 501764 NPCs.

Can City of Hope fit in?

Mu Mukui and Shen Qianli are two poor people. No one will pay attention when they fall behind the team. Everyone is eager to enter the City of Hope with fewer people. It is really terrible to have no water source. This dry season is like a disaster. What is it? Curse, what a damned curse is cursing them!
The migratory caravan had left the southern town for five days.

There are still ten days to arrive at the City of Hope.

Shen Qianli waited for the big team to leave, and she started to pack her luggage in silence. There were only some clothes in the backpack, a chipped bowl, a shriveled water bag and a rusty dagger on her waist. My boots are old, the toes are peeling off, they are shabby, my hands are full of calluses, I am really poor.

Mu Mukui was even more shabby than Shen Qianli, his skin was already dark, and his skin became darker due to the exhaustion of life, and his face was covered with wind and frost.

Shen Qianli found out that she and Mu Mukui were laborers in the quarry, and the stones knocked out of the quarry were used to strengthen the fence, and there were human-eating sand monsters hidden in the yellow sand, which built the fence. If it is strong, the sand monsters will not go to the town to eat people.

Sand monsters eat people, and they have been walking for five days. It is abnormal not to meet a single sand monster. Shen Qianli looked at the shadow of the big team going far away. The yellow sand could not see the end. The heat inside caused Shen Qianli to look away and said, "Mumukui, I decided to go back to the town."

Mu Mukui was very surprised, this smart and cunning guy actually made a different decision from the previous few days, one wanted to go to the City of Hope, today this one wanted to go back to the town, but turning back was a dead end.

He shrugged helplessly and said, "Dude, I understand how you feel about leaving your hometown, but you have to know that there is no water in the town, not even a drop of water, and we will die later..."

"No, we will die if we keep walking."

Shen Qianli's eyes were deep, "Dude, you know my intuition is like my protector, and now it tells me that it's dangerous to go any further, and I can't go any further."

Following Shen Qianli's gaze, Mu Mukui looked at the yellow sand heat wave that seemed to be burning in the air, and said: Come on, come on, the yellow sand is your burial ground, and it will melt you from head to toe !
Human beings always have some fear of the desert.

"It's a little dangerous..." Mu Mukui, a dark and honest man, shrank his neck. The longest distance he has traveled since he was a child was in these five days, in order to survive.

When Shen Qianli heard that the game location was City of Hope, she raised her first question, which was very important: "Has anyone been to City of Hope?"

"...No?" Mu Mukui's mind was almost tied up.

They all say that the City of Hope is a sacred place, with sandbanks, lakes, plants, endless water sources and a palace to worship the sun god. It is a paradise. After the disaster, they lived a happy life of good food and wine, and a master!
When Shen Qianli heard this kind of words, there was a strong taste of pyramid schemes, and he asked: "Have any people who followed the sun god to the City of Hope ever come back? Has anyone really seen the City of Hope and arrived at the City of Hope?" ?"

"They say that the City of Hope is a paradise, and you can go to the north all the way, and you can reach it at the end, but no one who has gone to the north has come back. Have you forgotten the boy Dabs who moved the stone with us? He I left the town and never came back, not even a single letter was sent back.” How scary.

There are countless people who follow the Sun God, and there are also countless people who went to the City of Hope, and none of them ever came back.

where are they now?
Going all the way to the end of the north, can you really see the old buddy in the City of Hope?

Mu Mukui didn't dare to speak anymore.

He also had no way of confirming the real whereabouts of those people.

The City of Hope has always been in everyone's legends. No one can prove that it is at the end of the north.

As for the palace of the sun god, no one has seen it in the tallest building at the north end.

……

The town in the south is a place where the stone walls are constantly expanding to the outside. It has a large population and is crowded together. It is really dilapidated and small. It seems that there is no opportunity for development.

The aborigines are very ignorant. They believe in the sun god in the desert, because the sun shines on the growing melons and fruits, which are very juicy, sweet and crisp, and can be sold at a good price.

However, after a month of drought, the underground pool did not produce a single drop of water, and the seedlings of melons and fruits died of drought before they grew up. The aborigines could only pack their luggage and migrate to the City of Hope, hoping to bring them new life. hope.

……

It took Shen Qianli five days, it was indeed five days, Shen Qianli was afraid that he would forget the game time and get lost in the desert, so he kept using the dagger on his body to write strokes on the wood. Qui returns to town.The drought has cracked the land of the town, and the stone walls couldn't bear the high temperature and exploded. The desolation is extremely desolate, like a furnace. Shen Qianli feels her skin is burning, she is too hot!

This game shouldn't be called City of Hope, it should be called The Oven!
Mu Mukui entered the town and passed out after holding his breath. Shen Qianli carried him, not knowing where to go, feeling that the soles of his feet were getting hot and smoking.

She summoned the referee cat, this little guy who is invulnerable to water and fire, rolled happily as soon as it landed on the ground, as if it was out to let the wind go.

Shen Qianli let it thrash and roll.

When it lay lazily on its stomach, Shen Qianli came out from the shadows, and she said, "Referee cat, can you help me find the entrance to the underground pool?"

Referee Cat It's a cloth, puppet, cat.

Its body is made of cotton, it doesn't even have ears, and its brain is also a ball of cotton.

Just relying on some cat instincts, such as rolling, flopping, scratching the beard...

Shen Qianli and it are in the relationship of master and slave, and they can't communicate with each other. She tried to explain the place in detail, "The underground pool is very cool inside. There is a spring. It should be dry now, but it should be better than these places. The house is much cooler..."
