Pirates: Gods among the Straw Hats
Chapter 106 A gift for uncle (page 12)
Before it got completely dark, Weiwei finally stopped and pointed to the outline of a city not far away and said, "Everyone, Yuba is just ahead."
Everyone looked up at the faint outline of the city.
Many people have noticed abnormalities.
Nami raised her hand and grabbed it in the air.
"It's bad, it's a sandstorm. There's a sandstorm ahead."
Everyone heard this and hurriedly stepped up their steps.
Arriving in front of the city, everyone fell silent.
The sandstorm has just passed, but this place can be said to be in ruins.
"I just asked why there are no lights in this city. Is it already abandoned?"
Ye Shangqiu looked at the yellow sand everywhere. Many buildings were half buried. This was not something that could happen in a day or two, and definitely not something that could happen in a sandstorm.
This is obviously caused by the gradual accumulation of sand that has not been taken care of for a long time.
Moreover, the planning of this city is not good. From now on, there are no facilities to block the wind and sand in the periphery of this city.
You can see it if you travel to the Western Regions.
Generally, there will be windproof and sand-fixing equipment on the outskirts of cities or on highways.
The city may not be visible clearly. Generally speaking, there are trees near the city. Outside the trees are grass squares. The grass squares are expanded little by little, and the grass squares spread outwards, and then the woods can be formed little by little. Push through.
Trees are planted in the middle of the grass squares, gradually expanding the green area outwards. Most of the sand blown by the wind can be blocked by the grass squares and green trees outside.
For roads, it is a grass grid with barbed wire and some trees, such as Haloxylon ammodendron trees, planted in the middle of the grass grid.
But the city's scope is a bit strange. It can't be said to be strange.
There is an oasis in the middle of the city, and the city is built around the oasis. There are buildings outside the city.
The disadvantage of this structure is that the city will slowly swallow up the oasis.
Although buildings can block wind and sand, water for a city must be obtained from the oasis.
The oasis will not expand, and it will not be able to better preserve water sources such as rainwater, and the oasis will slowly dry up.
In ancient times, many such cities and many of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions disappeared because of oases. This country also disappeared, and their time was also short. Some countries may have a very short time from the founding of their country to their disappearance.
Everyone walked towards the center of the city.
When we reached the center, everyone already realized something was wrong.
Sanji looked around: "Didn't Vivi-chan say there is an oasis here?"
Weiwei was a little sad: "Too much sand caused the ground to rise, and the oasis was swallowed up."
Just then everyone heard the sound of a shovel scraping against the sand.
I looked down and saw an old man digging something down with a shovel.
The old man dug a big hole so deep that there was even a fault-like structure next to it.
There is only one tree three to five meters high, but this tree is dead.
"Are you travelers?
Desert safari is tiring, right?
I'm really sorry, the city is drained. "
The old man said and turned to look at everyone. Weiwei hurriedly covered her face with a veil.
The old man didn't pay attention, but said calmly: "But you should have a good rest. There are hotels everywhere. Those are the best places in this city."
Luffy couldn't help but ask: "I heard that the rebels are in this city."
As soon as the old man heard this, his eyes became sharper, and a bunch of things flew over.
"What are you guys doing with the rebels? Are you planning to join the rebels?"
After the old man stopped, he said.
"Those idiots are no longer in this city."
"What did you say?"
"how is this possible?"
Everyone is excited. The rebels are not here. Didn't they come here in vain?
The old man began to tell about the rebels.
The sand attack here did not just start recently, it started three years ago. This place was depleted three years ago, and the rebel army could not survive in this place, so it was moved.
Sanji asked, "Then where did they go?"
The old man sighed: "Cattleya."
Chopper suddenly realized: "Isn't Cattleya the city where I met the camel?"
At this time, the camel also spoke, and Chopper hurriedly translated: "When it met me, it was helping the rebels transfer goods to Catlea."
Usopp, Sanji and Luffy became angry when they heard this, and the three of them went up to beat the camel.
Ye Shangqiu turned to look at Weiwei: "Weiwei, don't cover your face, will you be embarrassed? It's a pity to cover such a beautiful face."
The uncle hurriedly turned back to look at Weiwei: "Weiwei, did you just call her Weiwei?"
Luffy hurriedly came out to cover: "Hey, uncle, Weiwei is not a princess."
Then Sanji took him over and beat him up.
Ye Shangqiu said calmly: "Yes, she is the princess Weiwei of this country."
"Hey, Ye!"
Nami was really a little angry.
"For managing a country like this, don't you owe the citizens an apology?"
Ye Shangqiu's roar silenced everyone.
The uncle grabbed Weiwei's shoulders very excitedly, and then revealed his identity.
He had known Weiwei since she was young, and it was also Uncle Dotuo who left the royal capital to establish Yuba at that time.
The uncle also told his story. In fact, the leader of the rebel army was none other than his son, but now the rebel army has been cornered.
He once stopped his son, but at that time everyone was almost dead and starving to death. The king did not respond at all. He did not send food relief or send anyone to evacuate the refugees.
They had no choice but to raise the banner of rebellion and want to survive. They had never plundered the people. What they plundered was always the king's army.
But now both sides are having a hard time. The king's army can still eat, but the rebels have nothing to eat, so the next battle will be the final battle.
The uncle always believed in the king.
The uncle looked at Weiwei: "Please, Weiwei-chan, go and stop them."
The old man shed tears as he spoke.
Ye Shangqiu patted the old man on the shoulder: "I don't hate loyal people, nor do I hate people who keep their promises."
Ye Shangqiu looked at the dry city: "Since you are willing to let us rest for a night, then we have to pay accordingly, and I believe you don't need any Baileys.
Well, let me give you a rain. "
"Are you going to use something like dancing powder?"
The uncle looked at Ye Shangqiu nervously.
"Don't discuss me with that group of trash."
Ye Shangqiu took ten pokeballs from his belt.
