Beauty Steals the Country [End Times]

Luxury?Mu Xishan was suspicious, but didn't ask any questions.

Jiang Feng drove in the opposite direction from Base S.The surrounding scenery was still a desert, with yellow sand flying all over the sky, and the road gradually turned downhill, going straight down, and then entering a tunnel.The tunnel is very long, and the light ahead cannot be seen at all. It is surrounded by alloy materials, and two rows of light bulbs are installed on the top, which is unimaginable in the S base.

When night falls in Base S, the whole city is pitch black, except for candles at zero o'clock. Even the communication station uses regularly ordered batteries to maintain the normal use of the phone.

The car drove for about half an hour, and the tunnel suddenly widened, and a circular square appeared. The ground was divided into many areas, some were full of vehicles, some were full of people, and there were different registration desks at the end of the area.Jiang Feng slowed down and pulled over, entering a lane with fewer vehicles. Mu Xishan looked up and saw a hanging sign saying: Military Lane.

When the car drove to the end, Mu Xishan discovered that the exit of the tunnel was directly connected to the entrance of the base, and the name of the base was hung in the middle of the city wall: Ypsilon.

Jiang Feng's face can be used as an envoy throughout the north, and he only needs to pay the entry fee to enter the base without hindrance.

After passing through the city gate, the sky was bright, and Jiang Feng got off the car to change local money tickets.Huaxia uses crystal coins as the currency, but the rate of converting them into money tickets varies from base to base.The daily transactions of the base are mainly money tickets.The emergence of crystal coins is only for the traveling merchants and the four major bases to facilitate management when collecting taxes.

Mu Xishan got off the car and waited. He looked up and saw the steep mountain wall that towered into the sky. This is—built in the basin?

Jiang Feng came back with the money ticket and said to Mu Xishan, "Go, go this way!"

Mu Xishan followed Jiang Feng and came to a courtyard-style shop with shop banners hanging on the left and right: Right couplet: Guben Peiyuan.Zuolian: Longevity is the most important thing.

The plaque is: Ponzi Health Care Square.

As soon as Mu Xishan entered the store, he saw everything on the large and small shelves. It looked like a grocery store, with drinks on one side and equipment on the other.The store manager was sitting on a chair reading a book, and when he heard the sound of the wind chimes, he hurriedly got up to greet him. At first, he saw that the people walking in front were packed tightly and he was a little slack, but Jiang Qi, who swept to the back, immediately salivated and said, "Oh, third young master, It’s been a long time! I said it’s been years since we graduated, what’s causing you to come here today?”

Jiang Feng ignored the enthusiastic store manager, and led Mu Xishan to walk in, and entered the back room with bright and clean windows. Mu Xishan saw several decorative paintings hanging on the wall, and the paintings were exactly the tree Mu Xishan was looking for.

Mu Xishan looked down and saw a row of tableware on the shelf, the center of which was covered by glass and was a delicately crafted wooden bowl.

The store manager, Pang Fu, saw that Jiang Feng had been focusing on Muxi Mountain, so he immediately went up to him, "I see that you are full of dignity and have a good manner, may I ask your name?"

Mu Xishan was impatient with these pursuits, directly ignored Pang Fu's question, pointed to the bowl in the glass box and said, "Help me take out the bowl."

Pang Fu smiled and piled up flesh on his face, and continued, "Oh, I'm being rude to ask before introducing myself. My surname is Pang, and the word is Fu. I used to be in the same class as Jiang Sanshao."

Mu Xishan looked at Jiang Feng, and Jiang Feng explained, "Ipxi Dragon City advocates Mo's brother-in-law, who likes heresy since he was a child."

Pang Fu yelled, "What is heresy?" Jiang Feng ignored it, and urged impatiently, "Don't talk nonsense, take out the key."

Pang Fu suffered many blows, but his enthusiasm remained undiminished. He took out a wooden bowl and handed it to Muxi Shanhou and introduced it passionately: "This is the treasure of our store. It is made of mutated sandalwood. Invasion, eternal and rare holy wood. This sandalwood bowl is the precious green sandalwood that I specially hired someone to find from the virgin forest in South Africa. Using it for a long time to eat can not only improve human immunity, but also play a role in health and beauty. As long as you use it, not to mention living to the age of 99, even Su Damei from the Yunnan-Guizhou base is no match for you."

Hearing that Pang Fu made a fuss about his appearance, Jiang Feng frowned, looked at Mu Xishan with no abnormal expression, then looked at Pang Fu coldly, and said displeasedly: "Don't talk nonsense."

Mu Xishan didn't care about the confrontation between the two, and raised his bowl to the light of the sky.The bowl is yellowish brown under the light, and a small piece in the shade is slightly green, with beautiful lines and beautiful color.

If you take a closer look, there is a fine dust in the light beam that is isolated by invisible forces. Otherwise, if you put your hand on the grain, you can feel the light flowing on it, and there is a faint smell of wood from the tentacles. fluctuation.

Mu Xishan put down the bowl, saw the two people looking at him together, and asked, "Are there any other sandalwood besides green sandalwood?"

"Yes." Pang Fu took out the key to open other glass cabinets, and said proudly: "...Whether it's sandalwood, black, white, red, purple, gold, etc., our house has all kinds of sandalwood!"

Mu Xishan took them one by one, looked at them one by one, and listened to Pang Fu's explanation while thinking: golden sandalwood nourishes the essence and strengthens the kidneys, is the most able to strengthen the foundation, and is close to gold; Sandalwood has excellent toughness, strong plasticity, and is close to the wind; red sandalwood is also known as "Qinglongmu", which is quiet and ancient in appearance, hard and thick, and close to thunder; , sinks into the water, and has a unique fragrance. After the mutation, the two characteristics differentiate, and two kinds of wood species are derived: the former is Shentan, also known as Shentan, which is close to water; Light; black sandalwood, black heart brown, like satin jade, the most gorgeous, can absorb all kinds of dirt, almost dark; finally add green sandalwood with strong vitality.

Metal, wood, water, fire, wind, thunder, earth, light, and darkness are nine types of wood.

Mu Xishan finally confirmed that this is the earliest wood for making magic scrolls: Sandalwood.

"...You mean that after the catastrophe, sandalwood mutated into nine types of sandalwood, white sandalwood, green sandalwood, red sandalwood, black sandalwood, red sandalwood, jade sandalwood, golden sandalwood, and yellow sandalwood?"

After Mu Xishan asked, Pang Fu nodded affirmatively, and Mu Xishan picked up the bowl in his hand and stroked it carefully.Sandalwood is good, but it's just that the pursuit of carving is too much, which destroys the energy of the wood itself.

Pang Fu began to promote the handmade production of "National Sculptor", but Sassi asked uninterestedly, "Is your workshop for making tableware nearby?"

"...It's in the backyard." Pang Fu was stunned for a moment, and then happily asked: "Do you want to order it specially?"

Mu Xishan broke Pang Fu's illusion and said, "No, I just want to buy some sandalwood scraps."

In the end, Mu Xishan bought all the sandalwood waste at a low price, enough for several sacks, loaded them into the trunk, and then drove away with Jiang Feng.Through the car window, Mu Xishan could see Pang Fu enthusiastically waving from behind, and shouted to Jiang Feng to "come and see often", but Jiang Feng's expression was lukewarm, and Mu Xishan asked strangely: "When you were classmates, bad relationship?"

Jiang Feng has no habit of speaking ill of people behind their backs, and explained, "It's just not suitable for deep friendship."

After the two left, someone immediately reported to Zhang Mo.Pang Fu also changed his slick tongue in front of Jiang Feng, and said thoughtfully, "The man wearing the cloak must be the city owner of Base S, brother-in-law, what do you think he bought those scraps for?"

Although Zhang Mo also felt strange, but Mu Xishan did a lot of strange things, so there was no doubt.

"Who knows, that guy also dug up some useless things in the quarantine area. Maybe with a bunch of stupid subordinates, there will be a stupid master who follows him. Don't think too much about it. Go and see your sister, she She's not in good health recently, so you should spend more time with her."

"I see." Pang Fu nodded. He still felt that Mu Xishan's emphasis on sandalwood was too strange, but he had been in the sandalwood business for a while, and he didn't find that sandalwood had other effects besides health preservation.

When Mu Xishan and Jiang Feng returned to the Panlong Base, it was completely dark and the yellow sand became more and more intense.

The roofs of the residents were all covered with clay, and only the city lord's mansion was left. Jiang Feng parked his car at the gate of the mansion, and asked someone to unload the sandalwood waste and flower materials from the car, and moved them into the mansion. Mu Xishan followed behind, and found that the mansion There are many new faces.

After hearing the news, Zhu'er ran over holding an umbrella to cover Muxi Mountain from the sand, "City Lord, you are finally back!"

Mu Xishan looked at the strange faces in the yard and on the roof and asked, "What's going on?"

Zhu'er explained, "This is a supernatural person who came back from another base this afternoon. They are all relatives of the residents. Seeing that the roof of the City Lord's Mansion has not been painted, they were driven by their family members to help."

Mu Xishan nodded to show that he knew. In order to avoid distracting people, he asked Jiang Feng to move all the materials back to the cubicle of the bedroom, and wait for Huangsha to pass by before processing.

Jiang Feng put away his things and left. After Mu Xishan finished his dinner, Jiang Feng visited the City Lord's Mansion again, holding a black stone in his hand, which was the same as the one glowing in the tunnel.After taking it, Mu Xishan looked at it carefully. The stone was dim and the surface seemed to be covered with dirt. Mu Xishan scratched it with his fingernails and asked Jiang Feng, "What is this?"

Mu Xishan put the stone under the candlestick, and Jiang Feng took a closer look, "Well... When I first got this, I asked someone to look at it. It is solidified lake bottom sludge. It may be mixed with other unknown substances, and the texture is hard. , once it is hit, it will shatter as a whole."

Mu Xishan cut it with a knife, but the surface was too hard, leaving only slight scratches.

"Burn the outer layer." Mu Xishan handed the stone to Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng persuaded, "If this ability is used, the structure inside will be destroyed, and the center of the stone will melt into a liquid state."

"Have you ever burned it?" After Mu Xishan asked, Jiang Feng nodded, "When the dwarves first found it, they wanted to research a new light source, so let me burn the wrapped things."

When Mu Xishan heard this, he had a flash of inspiration, put the stone in an iron plate, and said, "Burn it."

Even though Jiang Feng was puzzled, he obeyed the order to wrap the stone with fire power.Mu Xishan saw that the surface of the stone was burnt black, then turned into ash, and fell off a little bit, and finally the surface gradually became thinner, which made the light appear brighter. After a long time, Jiang Feng felt that the case was burned, a slight Yellow liquid flowed out of the fire, and Jiang Feng stopped immediately.

Mu Xishan stepped forward, and on the red iron plate, there were pieces of broken stone ash and a transparent yellowish liquid, and there was a small black spot in the middle of the liquid.

This is clearly the structure of fluorescent stone.

Fluorescent stone is also called light amber.It is a finished product that wraps dead glowworms with magic plant resin, polishes them into a round shape, and processes them. It is as transparent as crystal, and uses light to store energy. Unexpectedly, in this era, there are naturally formed fluorescent stones.

However, Mu Xishan has never been involved in the production of fluorescent stones, so he does not know the resin material used, but he does know the appearance of the fireflies.

Mu Xishan immediately took out a pen and paper, drew the appearance of a firefly, and handed it to Jiang Feng, "What kind of animal is this?"

Jiang Feng immediately understood what Mu Xishan meant, "Do you think the worm wrapped inside is a 'mutated firefly'?"

Mu Xishan nodded, "I guess, this luminous stone is caused by a magical fusion reaction caused by the resin of a certain mutated wood accidentally wrapping the corpse of a mutated firefly in the process of falling naturally. We can artificially create a light source. Operate and create new lighting objects."

Jiang Feng disagreed, "But this thing cannot guarantee the durability of the light."

"That's because the hard shell covering the outside blocked the 'natural light source' from supplementing the sun's rays, so it consumed itself and became dimmer." Mu Xishan rummaged through the house to find an empty bottle to fill with the melted liquid, " As long as you can detect what kind of plant the liquid came from, everything is fine."

Jiang Feng reached out to stop Mu Xishan, "Let me do it, this liquid is still a little hot."

Mu Xishan handed out the bottle without hesitation, looked down at Jiang Feng's back exposed after squatting down, and muttered: "...You don't seem to be looking forward to it."

Jiang Feng paused his liquid-filled hands, and said after a moment of silence: "I just can't believe that a new light source can be found so easily."

Mu Xishan lowered his eyes, stood in front of Jiang Feng, "raise your head."

Jiang Feng raised his head in surprise, Mu Xishan looked down at Jiang Feng from a high angle, with a serious and meticulous expression, and said slowly: "I will make it one of the industries of S base, so, you—"

"I didn't question you." Jiang Feng interrupted Mu Xishan's words, knelt down on one knee, put his right hand on his left chest, and lowered his head devoutly, "Your belief is my belief, nothing else, I am willing to realize any possibility for you .”

The thin yellow qi on Jiang Feng's body completely disappeared, and was completely enveloped by the purple qi. Mu Xishan felt a little touched in his heart. He retracted the words behind him, turned his eyes to the candlelight jumping on the bedside table, and thought of the rich and powerful tunnel lamp of Yipsilon. Whispers, "I will not live up to your beliefs."
