Chapter 997: Transaction in Aru Village
The desert scenery flashed past the two of them.
In just a few breaths, Bai Qiyun and Disiya appeared in a village located in the desert.
Compared to people in the rainforest, the structures of houses in the desert are thicker and more solid.
Moreover, the wooden bridges connecting everywhere like Huachengguo have been replaced with stronger steel cables.
This is of course, after all, the desert faces the threat of sandstorms all the time, and the temperature difference between day and night here is huge, so the construction of houses must take into account the thermal insulation function.
Moreover, Bai Qiyun also found an interesting mark on the corners of these houses.
That is the academy symbol of the Miao Lun sect. In other words, the construction of the buildings here was actually helped by people from the Miao Lun sect.
As the school with the deepest involvement in architecture among the six schools, they are indispensable in most official and private buildings in Xumi.
What Bai Qiyun didn't expect was that they could be seen in this vast desert.
It seems that in the Sumeru region, under the leadership of King Daci Shu, the separation between desert and rainforest is not as clear as imagined.
Maybe the two types of people just want to be out of sight. As long as they don't cross the distance between each other and don't appear in each other's sight, then the Sumeru people can still recognize the 'fellow countryman' whose skin color and lifestyle are different from their own.
.
Although this recognition is based on forced integration by some external force, it can barely be regarded as a kind of integration.
Without Inazuma, Kaiji Island can only bow its head and accept the rule of the shogunate, and it must rely on those people to maintain the safety of commercial routes and maintain economic vitality.
However, compared to Haiji Island, the desert of Sumeru has obviously received much less help from the rainforest.
After all, the people on Kaiji Island look the same as the people in other places in Inazuma, but desert people can be recognized at a glance as long as they enter the rain forest.
This is a serious injury and there is no way to avoid it.
Naturally, the estrangement and contradiction between the two groups became more acute.
However, this does not have much impact on Bai Qiyun, who is a foreigner.
"Here we are, this is Aru Village."
Desiya's footsteps stopped in front of a white building.
Perhaps for the purpose of cooling down, the buildings here mostly use white paint to reflect the sunlight as much as possible and prevent the temperature inside the house from getting too high.
"Aru Village..."
Bai Qiyun chewed on this name, as if he had heard it somewhere.
The two of them walked forward side by side, and under the leadership of Desiya, they arrived in front of the tallest building in Aru Village.
"So, what do you want to do by bringing me here?"
Bai Qiyun knew that Disiya's past might be hidden in the desert, but he didn't care too much about this woman's past.
Because everything he cares about has been confirmed by him, otherwise he would not allow this person to serve as his dependent.
After all, no matter how anxious he is, the standards of some things cannot be lowered, otherwise it will only cause greater trouble in the end.
"Of course it's to fulfill the agreement. You owed me a condition in disguise before."
Disiya pinched her exposed waist and looked at the boy with a proud expression.
"The conditions...you tell me."
Hearing this, Bai Qiyun did not comment.
Although the conditions for family members between the two of them were clearly stipulated, when it came to Desiya himself, he did owe something.
Seeing Bai Qiyun's preliminary agreement, Disiya's eyes showed a look of satisfaction.
She turned around and pointed at Aru Village, which was covered by vast yellow sand.
"Do your best to improve the living conditions here. This is my only personal request."
As soon as these words came out, Bai Qiyun's expression paused and his brows raised.
There was a little confusion in his eyes.
"This matter...is a bit big."
Bai Qiyun's fingers kept tapping on his waist, as if he was pondering the feasibility of this request.
"Besides, King Daci Shu should be responsible for this matter. Why do you want to find me, an outsider?"
"If King Daci Shu wanted to improve this place, he would have improved it long ago, but this place has still looked like this in the past few hundred years."
Desiya shrugged, her face full of indifference.
The atmosphere between the two of them was a bit awkward, especially since Bai Qiyun knew that the protagonist in their story was still watching him rape him, so he couldn't say anything good to defend him for a while.
Perhaps from Lin's point of view, this matter will involve conflicts between different ethnic groups, so it has been piled up there for hundreds of years.
But for human beings who only have a short life span of a hundred years, this problem has existed for several generations, and gods and humans have completely different views on the problem.
That’s why Desia doesn’t have any hope in the gods.
Bai Qiyun was silent for a moment and then looked at Aru Village.
Here, people's mental outlook is obviously more exhausted than those in the rainforest.
After all, in addition to monsters, the dangers in the desert also include unpredictable natural disasters.
"Okay, I promise you, I will try my best to improve the life here. In addition, please put forward any other conditions you have."
After thinking about it, Bai Qiyun agreed to Disiya's request.
With his ability, it is not impossible to slightly improve his living conditions.
And because of his foreign status, it is easier for him to be accepted by the locals when doing things here.
Hearing this, Disiya couldn't help but ponder for a moment and said casually.
"In this case, please take care of some small villages around Aru Village. Their situation is even worse than Aru Village."
As a large village and town closest to the border between desert and rainforest, Aru Village actually has many connections with Kavanyi.
Thanks to this, in terms of materials and economy, this is the best gathering place for desert people in the entire desert.
Those small villages do not have this condition.
"No problem, it's just a casual thing, but I promised you so many conditions, so you have to agree to my small request."
Hearing this, Desiya's heart suddenly tightened.
She realized that the young man in front of her was looking at her with a dangerous look, so she swallowed subconsciously and pretended to be calm.
"you say."
Bai Qiyun leaned into Disiya's ear and whispered softly.
Disiya's face was stiff after speaking just a few words, and her wheat-colored skin was visibly tinged with a hint of crimson.
Until Bai Qiyun left her ear, Disiya's body still stood stiffly, without any reaction.
"Well, my conditions aren't too excessive, right?"
Bai Qiyun licked the corners of his dry mouth.
"this..."
Hearing this, Disiya came back to her senses and gritted her teeth, not knowing whether she should agree or not.
Just as the corner of her sight swept across Aru Village in the dream, looking at the dilapidated streets, a flash of determination suddenly flashed in her eyes.
"Okay, I promise you."
Desiya almost gritted her back teeth and choked out these words from her throat.
