Interstellar Farming: The sick and weak male protagonist is struggling to survive on money

Chapter 744 A Different Frontier City

Nian Shutong didn't choose any of the border cities she had been to before, but randomly boarded a starship that was closer to her and arrived at the current border city.

It's just that when she stepped into the gate of the border city, she noticed the difference here.

When the guard guarding the gate of the border city saw the veiled Nian Shutong, he said in a bad tone, "It must be too good-looking."

"definitely."

The one on the other side confirmed it, and Nian Shutong glanced at the two of them incomprehensibly. This glance somewhat hurt the eyes.

The guard on the left was full of pockmarks, and the guard on the right had a pitted face, but the two were more confident than the other, standing at the door with their backs straight, showing their faces proudly.

It seems that this face is their most proud part.

And they said they must be wearing veils because they are so beautiful?

Nian Shutong walked into this border city with doubts.

When she came in, she really saw a lot of people wearing veils or masks just like herself, but these people walked on the street with their backs bent and very unconfident. Hot Wheels disappears in the blink of an eye.

How is this going?

After Shutong walked a certain distance back then, many people pointed at her, but they didn't think she was ugly, but said she must be too beautiful.

"It must be too good-looking, but she is not embarrassed at all."

"It must be a newcomer, otherwise it can't be like this."

"You're right, it must be a newcomer."

After walking a certain distance, Nian Shutong probably understood one thing, that is, in this border city, the uglier the more confident, the more beautiful the more inferior it is.

And it is normal for all people to have aesthetics, because they know that wearing a mask or veil is good-looking, but they are still proud of their ugliness.

Nian Shutong doesn't particularly care about appearance, but when you have a good-looking face, you must be happy.

The indifference she said means that she will not judge things because of a person's appearance, and will not judge things because of a person's appearance.

But if she is really allowed to choose by herself, she will still choose the good-looking one. Who would really like the ugly one?

Even if it is a bowl for eating, everyone will choose a good-looking one, and I have never seen a business make a rice bowl so ugly that it is so ugly that you can't eat it just looking at the bowl.

But this border town is very different. People here really think that being ugly is good, and you are right when you are ugly.

Nian Shutong was somewhat interested. Is this kind of operation real, or there are some potential factors in it.

She walked to a tavern by herself, and when she entered, she ordered a baijiu that happened to be live broadcast by Xiaohe, and another plate of peanuts. She found a corner table by herself, drank and ate slowly.

"Brother, has the Border City Lord prayed recently?"

"It seems to be coming soon, either today or tomorrow."

"That's good, finally caught up."

"That is, as long as the city lord prays, you can come back from the Zerg battlefield with almost no danger."

"Who says it's not? I also chose this day on purpose."

Nian Shutong drank the wine carelessly, and collected some information, the border city owner would pray for blessings. Could it be that the border city owner is an ugly person.

In any case, the city lord's blessing seems to have a very important effect.

Because the people here obviously believed in this, thinking that the blessing of the city lord would allow them to return safely from the Zerg battlefield.

"It's kind of interesting."

Nian Shutong ate the last peanut in her hand and didn't wait any longer. She didn't care if the city lord prayed for blessings, so hurry up and go to the battlefield.

But when she got up, the street outside began to cheer, and the city lord prayed!

The mayor prayed!
Nian Shutong stepped out of the tavern and turned in one direction. Now that he has caught up, let's take a look.

She followed the crowd in front of her and walked straight forward. This is probably the scene of the empty alley.

About a few hundred meters away, there is a huge square. In the middle of the square is a circular high platform, a bit like an altar.

Nian Shutong followed the crowd and stood at one place, looking at the center.

After waiting for about half an hour, a faint scent of flowers wafted over. Nian Shutong sniffed it lightly, and it was non-toxic.

But the scent of flowers made everyone quiet down, like the most devout believers, with their hands clasped together, looking up at the direction of the sky.

Soon, a white figure appeared from one place, not flying by itself, but with some kind of small aircraft under its feet.

People, it seems, are okay for now.

If there is a real problem, it is that this person is near the end of his life.

Nian Shutong watched the man float towards him, his face was not ugly, but rather handsome.

This is the mayor?
She also thought that it was because the city lord himself was ugly that the people here would be confident with their ugliness.

But now it seems that her idea has been completely overturned.

"It's time to pray for everyone again. As the old saying goes, appearance is the least important thing."

"The heart of a person is what you really want to get in touch with, so don't judge a person or refuse to understand a person just because of their appearance."

The city lord in white said a few words, sat on the high altar, and began to pray for everyone.

Nian Shutong clearly saw that from the body of the city lord in white, the power of blessings, the power of real blessings, was radiating out and falling on the people below.

And the uglier it is, the more it seems to get.

The people below feel very clearly, which is probably the reason why they feel that the uglier they look, the more proud they are.

But the city lord in white above is burning his spiritual power to pray for everyone.

Nian Shutong frowned. At first, she thought that it was not an old goblin, or that she had some means to secretly steal people's energy. There are really many such things.

But all the actions of the city lord in white proved that her guess was incorrect.

This is a person who burns his strength and prays for the following people.

What is he for?
Nian Shutong didn't understand, and she didn't accept the blessing of the city lord in white. The power of blessing that fell on her returned to the city lord in white in the same way.

The city lord in white naturally sensed it, opened his eyes to look at it, and then closed his eyes again.

A blessing event lasted less than 10 minutes, and the city lord in white was still sitting on the altar and said to the people below: "I hope everyone returns safely."

The people below left clearly, this is the rule of the city lord in white, he wants to watch them leave.

Only Nian Shutong could understand that the city lord in white didn't even have the strength to leave.
