Ghost Eye Merchant Reborn
devil city gift
"You are really careless. Why did you enter the desert without any preparation? This is the outskirts of the Devil's City. Fortunately, we passed by here today. Otherwise, if you had entered the inside of the Devil's City, it would be difficult for even the gods to save you."
A beautiful little girl from southern Xinjiang spoke naughtily. Although she seemed to be talking to Tang Ling, her eyes occasionally glanced at Fujisawa who was wearing a mask and did not speak.
Tang Ling knew her senior brother's unique charm and naturally understood it, so she didn't look down on the girl. If she hadn't known her senior brother, she would have been curious about him wearing a mask.
"By the way, what are you doing here? Who is he to you?"
The little girl lowered her voice and asked Tang Ling quietly. Her Mandarin was not very good, but Tang Ling was already very talented in languages, so she could barely understand her.
Tang Ling smiled and said, "He is my brother. We came here for a trip. We originally wanted to see what the desert is like, but we didn't expect that we got lost."
The little girl nodded. Although her Mandarin was not very standard, she could understand it.
"My name is Amanguli, you can call me Guli, what about you?"
Amanguli opened her mouth with a smile and introduced herself generously. Amanguli is indeed very beautiful. Perhaps because she is from southern Xinjiang, her eye sockets are deep and she looks a bit like a foreigner. Her nose is high and her skin is beautiful.
It's a little dark, probably because I often live here in the desert, where the sun is relatively abundant, but I look very healthy.
Tang Ling looked at the lively Amanguli, smiled slightly and said, "My name is Tang Ling, and his name is Fujisawa."
"Fujisawa..."
Amanguli murmured, then suddenly smiled and said, "His name is as beautiful as his person!"
Tang Ling burst into laughter. This girl was quite straightforward. Most girls would be a little shy when seeing her senior brother, but she expressed it frankly. Tang Ling felt more favorable towards this girl.
Tang Ling was sitting on the camel cart driven by the caravan. At a glance, she could see the endless desert. The wind and sand in the desert were relatively strong, which made people's faces feel a little painful. It was noon now and the weather was relatively hot. Amanguli gave Tang Ling
Ling handed over a water bag, and Tang Ling took it with a smile.
Then Amanguli smiled and handed her senior brother Fujisawa a water bag, and explained, "Brother Fujisawa, this water bag has not been touched by anyone. It is new. Drink some water quickly. There is a lot of wind and sand in the desert."
, It’s noon again, the weather is too hot, drink some water to replenish your energy.”
Fujisawa was originally very repulsive to women. Although this Amanguli was very cheerful and forthright, Fujisawa still had a cold look and did not pick up Amanguli's water bag. Amanguli stretched out his hand, and the atmosphere was a bit...
Awkward.
"Gu Li, don't give it to him if he doesn't drink it. Who in this desert doesn't know that water is the most important thing."
A very strong man spoke. This man was also a member of the caravan. Tang Ling knew at a glance that this man liked Amanguli. Of course she was in a bad mood when she saw Amanguli fawning over a strange man so much.
, so his attitude towards Fujisawa is not very good.
The people here are all straightforward, and their dissatisfaction with others is directly displayed on their faces, and they will never do one thing in front of others or behind their backs.
Of course Tang Ling knew that the senior brother would not feel thirsty at this moment. They all brought water with them, and Tang Ling's space was prepared with many things that would be used in the desert, so the luggage of the two of them was not very much.
Because they were looking for the artifact, Master and Tang Ling also told Fujisawa about Tang Ling's situation, so of course Fujisawa knew that Tang Ling had the artifact and had the space to carry it.
The purpose of this trip is to find the artifact, which both of them attach great importance to. It has been three days since they arrived in southern Xinjiang. According to the map given by the master, they can only find it slowly, but the location on the map is very small. After arriving here,
Only then did I realize how big this place is.
Tang Ling and Fujisawa have been searching here for three days, and they can only search in one direction each time. When they found this place today, they obviously found that the desert here was different from the ones they had encountered before, and it was more difficult to walk.
Moreover, the wind and sand were extremely strong, and we could see strange-shaped piles of sand and rocks from a distance.
If they hadn't happened to meet this caravan, Tang Ling and Fujisawa would not have known that they had reached the outskirts of Devil City.
If it were in other places, everyone might not know it, but as long as anyone lives in southern Xinjiang, everyone knows about Devil City. It is a terrifying existence, but it is also a mysterious existence.
Many people come to Devil City specifically to travel and explore and experience desert life. Similarly, there are also some who study art and come here purely to experience the natural landscape here.
Of course, most of the people who come here to visit the Devil City come to the outskirts of the Devil City, and no one wants to go to the inside of the Devil City.
Anyone who has been to the Devil City knows that any navigation system will fail when it gets here. Even the most basic compass will fail when it gets here. Therefore, no one dares to enter the Devil City easily. The entire Devil City is very large.
, the further inside, the more mysterious and dangerous it becomes.
Therefore, the Devil City has always been very mysterious. It attracts people, and at the same time, everyone is also afraid of it. Fortunately, they met Amanguli, otherwise it would be easy for them to get into trouble. After all, Tang Ling and Fujisawa are very worried about this Devil City.
Not much is known.
Amanguli glared at the man who just spoke, but said nothing. Instead, she looked at Tang Ling and chatted enthusiastically.
"Where are you from? If you want to visit the Devil City, why not stay at our caravan camp. It is very close to the Devil City. Many people who go to the Devil City will stay with us first. Otherwise, they will stay there first.
If you go to Devil City anywhere else, you may not be able to come back at night."
Amanguli enthusiastically invited Tang Ling and Fujisawa. Although she liked that cool man and Tang Ling was just Fujisawa's younger sister, she could tell that among the two of them, this sister seemed to be the one who made the decision.
people.
Tang Ling thought for a moment but didn't speak. The man from before quickly said, "Gu Li, they are all strangers. Who knows why they happened to appear in front of us. Our goods this time are of great value. You
How can you just take in strangers?"
This time the man was not targeting Senior Brother Fujisawa. Come to think of it, their goods this time were indeed precious things. But Tang Ling just took a quick look and saw that there seemed to be nothing there. There was a golden mist. In other words, these things
There are no valuable items in it.
"Batu, I am the leader this time. Naturally, I have the final say. I have already decided to invite sister Tang Ling and brother Fujisawa to join us. Don't say any more."
Amanguli put her hands on her hips and gave Batu a stern look. Although Batu was not convinced, he was helpless. The leader this time was her, Amanguli. And the most important thing was, who called him?
I like Amanguli.
Seeing Batu's deflated appearance, Amanguli was very happy and smiled happily. Tang Ling thought for a moment and then said, "Well, if you don't bother us, we will stay at your place.
If you are not prepared today, you must be fully prepared tomorrow and then come and have a look at this devil city."
Later, Tang Ling asked Amanguli some things about the Devil City. Amanguli was very talkative and told Tang Ling a lot of stories about the Devil City.
There is a legend in the Devil's City. It turns out that this is a majestic castle. The men inside are handsome and strong, and the women are beautiful and gentle. They live a happy life. But then a devil came here and taught the men here bad. The men became addicted to wine and sex.
, obsessed with power, and women also change because of the changes in men. They are no longer hardworking and only think about how to hook up with a rich and powerful man. What was originally a castle full of happiness has turned into a castle.
A hell full of pain.
Later, in order to punish the people here and suppress the devil, the gods killed all the people here. All the people in the castle were crushed under the ruins. Every night, the voices of the dead souls repenting would resound throughout the Devil City.
, this is their repentance.
But this is just a story. Tang Ling just listened to it, but the locals here believed in this story very much, so they kept urging themselves not to make the same mistake, so in the small cities near Devil City,
People's happiness level is still very high.
Before going to the Devil City, you must make all preparations and learn some knowledge about the desert and the Devil City. Only in this way will you not die in the Devil City.
All along, some explorers have died in the Devil City, so ordinary people, even on the outskirts of the Devil City, only dare to visit places near the edge, at least this way they won't get lost because of the direction.
Because in the desert, caravans use camels to travel, so they move relatively slowly. The caravan that Tang Ling and Fujisawa met at noon did not reach the place until the afternoon, and after arriving at the place, Tang Ling
It's obvious that the temperature here seems to have dropped, and the sun has slowly set. It gets dark later here, around 9 p.m., and it doesn't get dark until very late.
This side of the desert is indeed a place where "wear a cotton-padded jacket in the morning and wear gauze in the afternoon, and eat watermelon around the stove." At noon, Tang Ling felt that she was so hot that her whole body was about to be scorched by the sun. It was not yet evening, and the weather was
It started to get colder.
Tang Ling came to the place where they were stationed. Rather than saying that this was where they were stationed, it was a small trading place. The style here was quite different. They were all tents set up by hand, and in front of the tents were placed
all kinds of things,
The things were quite complete, and there were a lot of people coming and going. Tang Ling saw that most of the people visiting this small street here were tourists like Tang Ling. The things here felt very fresh, which was pretty good.
It was so lively, I guess those people were all going to Devil City.
Amanguli pulled Tang Ling cordially. Tang Ling was also easy-going. She was pulled back and forth by Amanguli. This little girl was still very energetic and energetic. She had walked such a long way and she didn't even know she was tired.
, if this was a random girl of the same age, she would definitely be paralyzed on the bed in the tent at this moment.
When they arrived at the place where they were stationed, Tang Ling was dragged by Amangulli to visit the small streets here. Faced with the different customs and the enthusiasm of Amangulli, Tang Ling quickly integrated into the folk customs.
Anyway, what Tang Ling is looking for is a treasure, and she definitely can't go to the Devil City to look for it at the moment, so it's also a good choice to stroll around the small streets here.
"Tang Ling, this is the jade that is special to our place. Although our place is remote, we are rich in jade. Look at this, this is the Hetian jade from our place. How about it? It's beautiful, isn't it?"
Tang Ling looked at the Hotan jade in Amanguli's hand, and nodded. She was also a little surprised. Tang Ling nodded because what Amanguli was holding was indeed Hotan jade, and she was surprised entirely because Amanguli casually
Picked it up from a stall here.
In Tang Ling's understanding, although there is a possibility of picking up items on the street stalls, this situation is basically rare. Tang Ling then took a look at the street stalls and was really shocked. They were all genuine.
If they set up a street stall to sell jade, the probability of selling real jade should be more difficult than winning the lottery. Here, they just put it on the street stall for sale, and the style is really different from their place.
When Amanguli saw Tang Ling looking at the Hetian jade in a daze on the stall, she smiled. Tang Ling must have never seen such a good jade before, so she was dumbfounded. Many outsiders were also dumbfounded when they saw these Hetian jade.
With this look, when they know the price of jade, they will become even more crazy.
Amanguli is not stupid. Of course, she knows that if this Hetian jade is sold elsewhere, the price should be quite high. Otherwise, those who come here will not act so crazy when they see such cheap Hetian jade.
She had seen a man once come here and buy Hetian jade from all the street stalls here. He was very excited after buying it. It was only after she learned about it that she realized that the price of Hetian jade can be sold outside.
They pay such a high price, but these things are very cheap here.
For people here or those who travel here, the most expensive thing is not the local specialties, but the fruits they brought here for trading.
Yes, the price of fruits here is very high. Although their local grapes and cantaloupe are relatively cheap, other fruits, such as apples, pears, bananas, etc., are sold at very high prices. They are definitely worth a fortune.
something.
"Which piece do you like? I'll give it to you."
Amanguli spoke generously. For her, these Hetian jades are indeed not expensive, and the people here basically know her. Generally speaking, they will not ask for her money.
The reason is very simple. Her father is the owner of this small street, and Amanguli’s family is the founder of this street. Now the buyers of these stalls are all beneficiaries, and they care deeply for Amanguli and her family.
I'm grateful, and of course I won't ask for this small amount of money.
When Amanguli saw Tang Ling staring at a piece of Hetian jade, she thought that Tang Ling liked that piece of Hetian jade. She pointed at the piece of Hetian jade that Tang Ling was looking at and said to the stall owner, "Stall owner,
I want this piece of Hetian jade, how much does it cost?"
The stall owner waved his hands repeatedly and shook his head, "If you like it, just take it. It doesn't cost much anyway, so just take it."
When Tang Ling heard them talking, she came back to her senses slightly and looked at the stall owner. Although the price of Hetian jade is slightly cheaper here, she doesn't give it away casually. The influence of the Amanguli family is quite high.
Not small.
"That's not possible. I'm buying something to give to a friend. If I don't pay, it won't be a gift from you. The money must be paid. Besides, if my father finds out that I take your things casually,
But I will be punished."
Amanguli waved her hand very resolutely, and then Tang Ling realized that it turned out that Amanguli bought this Hetian jade as a gift to her. She was indeed distracted looking at the piece of Hetian jade just now, but she was distracted.
The reason is not because she likes that Hetian jade.
The Hetian jade was different from the others. It was surrounded by a mass of black air, but if she looked carefully, she seemed to be able to see a layer of golden mist wrapped in the black air, but she couldn't tell yet.
The stall owner hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and then said proudly, "In that case, just give me a hundred yuan."
After Tang Ling heard the price, she was a little stunned. One hundred yuan? Are you kidding? This is also a Hetian jade, but it only sells for one hundred yuan. It would be fine if this is just an imitation, although the Hetian jade is faintly
It has a dark air, but it is definitely authentic.
What surprised Tang Ling even more was that Amanguli nodded, "Okay, then it's one hundred yuan. After paying the basic price, my father won't blame me. Here you go, here's one hundred yuan."
The stall owner smiled and took it, checked whether it was genuine or not, then put it into his pocket and handed the Hetian jade to Tang Ling neatly.
Tang Ling was slightly startled. When Amanguli saw it, she quickly said, "This is a gift from me. It's not very expensive. You must never tell me you don't want it."
Amanguli was deeply afraid that Tang Ling would say no. Tang Ling looked at Amanguli and smiled, then put the Hetian jade on her wrist to show that she accepted the gift. Amanguli saw it and became happy.
"You are different from those people. Some of the girls I have met before are not very straight. They always shied away and said they didn't want it, but they couldn't keep their eyes off it, so they accepted it in the end. None of them had as good a personality as you.
"
Tang Ling smiled. It seemed that Amanguli liked to make friends and give gifts to her friends. However, the people she met before were not Tang Ling, so she would naturally feel different.
Tang Ling accepted the gift, but she did not forget the reason why she fell in love with the Hetian jade bracelet. Tang Ling looked at the stall owner and asked, "Boss, where did your Hetian jade come from? What else can you do?"
Do you remember where I got this bracelet on my hand?”
