The scenery under the setting sun is lush and lush. Looking around, the road is surrounded by harvested wheat fields. After a lot of hard work, seeds will be sown on the land again, and farmers should also look forward to the harvest next year...
A very delicate and small carriage galloped on the road, and the curtains were occasionally pulled open, revealing an innocent angel face, which was complemented by a white and sacred petroglyph. One big and one small, decorating this vast field.
The groom who was pulling was a handsome young man with sword-browed eyebrows and starry eyes and jade-faced men, almost comparable to the handsome man who only existed in the legend. He was no one else, but David Mo who had just left Colombia.
After the battle two days ago, he did not stay in the Royal City of Colombia for too long. After sealing William VI, he set off immediately. Sauron was also quite interesting. It seemed that because he was worried that he would not work hard, he gave him thirty crystal cards before leaving. It is said that this thing is common in the east and west of Orlando, and each piece is worth 100,000 gold coins.
This thing is quite similar to the crystal cards of the Holy Empire, but the anti-counterfeiting pattern on it is somewhat different, indicating that these crystal cards can only be used in Orlando.
"You will reach the territory of the Duchy of Lusen after walking for a hundred miles west. After walking for so long, I finally saw a little hope." The young man in white whispered to the girl behind him. The reins in his hand couldn't help but tighten a little, obviously he was quite excited.
Leya still doesn't know what he is going to the Principality of Lusen, but she has already understood the man's surname. If it's something he doesn't want to say, he won't answer no matter how you ask, so she can only wait silently for him to give the answer.
The carriage was also sponsored by Sauron. The original carriage was a bit worn along the way. After all, Leya was a delicate girl, so he did not refuse this gift.
...
It was already dark, and the carriage slowly drove to the vicinity of a medium river. On the pier, a few pedestrians occasionally took boats to the other side. It can be seen that there was no prosperity here as imagined.
The young man in white walked slowly to the dock with the reins of the horse. A boatman rushed over and nodded and said, "Does this gentleman want to take a boat? The villain's boat is spacious and comfortable, and it is best for carrying a carriage like you."
However, the young man did not talk to him, but a sweet and tender voice came from the carriage: "Where is your ship? This car is not small, don't scratch it."
The boatman hurriedly pointed to the distance and explained: "Miss, sir, look, that boat is a small man's boat. Although it is not beautiful, it is guaranteed to be spacious!"
Looking in the direction of his finger, I saw an extremely ordinary wooden boat staying in a narrow harbor. Although it seemed a little worn, as the shipkeeper said, it was indeed spacious among these boats.
Just as they were talking, several more boatmen came to the side, and they all said that their boats were better. The middle-aged boatmen who were the first to step forward was immediately anxious and shouted: "Sir, Miss, it was the villain who came first, it was the villain..."
The curtain of the car was slightly lifted open, and the girl inside glanced at the boatman around her and looked at the pitiful middle-aged boatman. She felt a little reluctant and said, "Forget it, it's just you. Be more stable when pulling the boat, don't make any mistakes!"
The middle-aged boatman quickly made a happy guarantee of absolute stability, and then turned to the boatman around him and said, "Let it go! This is my business, don't block my business!"
The boatmen around him sighed and walked away. It was not easy to make a living on this river. The business of a whole carriage like this is even more rare. You can earn at least three or four silver coins in one trip.
The girl whispered to the young man in white. The young man in white nodded and followed the middle-aged boatman to the slightly old wooden boat on the shore in a carriage.
The river water was clear and you could occasionally see a few fish passing by along the moonlight. The middle-aged man had a good skill in roaming the boat. During the time the boat was sailing, there was not even a single wave.
The middle-aged boatman was a person who couldn't rest. While he was lying on the boat, he introduced the river in front of him: "This river is called Ziwu River. It is said that it was left behind when two Holy Light-level heroes fought. Because the entire battle lasted from midnight to noon, he got this name..."
The girl had already walked off the carriage at this time. Whenever she listened to the introduction of the boatman, she would whisper to the young man in white. The two men and women complement each other and stood on the boat with a look of a talented man and beautiful woman...
The middle-aged boatman had never seen such a pair of beautiful men. He couldn't help but secretly praise: "The gods that the minstrels preached are probably not as good as these couples..."
He could occasionally hear the soft voice of a girl, but he was not familiar with the language, but he thought it should be those official words from the East.
"Are both guests from other places? Our Duchy of Luson is a good place, surrounded by three sides and one side, and the war outside has nothing to do with us for many years. Many people say that we are the last pure land in western Orlando." The boatman explained lingeringly.
The young man in white did not talk to the girl, but just smiled and nodded, which was an answer to the boatman. After a while, the scenery on the other side gradually appeared. Behind the small pier were rows of neat village houses, and the pavement with bluestone was a bit prosperous.
After a gentle collision, the wooden boat stopped on the shore. The girl took five silver coins and handed them to the middle-aged boatman. This was one more than the boatman expected, which made him unable to help but thank him.
After the young man in white waited until the girl and the petty horse entered the car, he tightened the reins in his hand again and drove the car forward slowly. There was no suitable hotel in the village, and he needed to rush to the city of this country as soon as possible to find out where the entrance to the Kilimanjaro Mountains was.
...
The Duchy of Lusen is not big, and there are only seven cities in total with the royal city. The original territory is far larger than now, but the parts close to the mountains have been completely abandoned. Because the court of the Duchy of Lusen still remembers the legacy of his ancestors, that is, they must not be close to Mount Kilimanjaro!
As he walked and stopped along the way, David Mo had no idea how many times he had asked. Almost everyone remained silent about the Kilimanjaro Mountains. Even Leya was a little surprised, why did Mount Kilimanjaro become so strange that even the people living here knew nothing about it.
The Lusen Royal City is a medium-sized city with some loose soldiers standing at the gate. It is obvious that these people have not experienced war in years.
Fortunately, these soldiers did not make it particularly difficult for them to travel. Foreigners could pass through the entire city by paying a silver coin, and they would also give a roughly printed guide map, which blurred the names of many signs and buildings.
Looking at the map in his hand, Mo David couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. This is a bit similar to doing business, but a discerning person can tell that such a thing is not worth a silver coin at a glance. It's just that the city gate guards are looking for some excuses to collect money.
There are several hotel-like icons marked on it, which are quite useful, but he can't understand the text on it at all, so he can only leave it to Leya to read and explain it.
"These hotels should have been given money too..." The girl frowned and muttered a few times, then continued: "The locations of these stores are a bit remote, and they probably have no customers..."
She gestured on the map twice, and finally confirmed: "This one should be pretty good. Although the labeling is not very clear, it is precisely because of this that it should not be paid, but it has reasons to have to be marked."
David Mo nodded. The little girl was very clever. He never doubted this. So he said lightly: "That's this family. Let's see what qualifications it has to make these Qiu Ba have to mark them."
Following the direction provided on the map, after driving about ten miles, they finally saw the true face of Mount Lu in the inn. The two looked at each other, and obviously they knew what each other meant: No wonder they used this place as a landmark.
Strictly speaking, this place has been separated from the category of inns, because there has never been a hotel that is willing to cross the storefronts in such a prosperous area. The entire hall looks magnificent and the appearance is wrapped in a layer of glazed glass. This momentum alone can be called a luxury hotel.
A huge fountain blocked the hotel's door, but not only did it not make people feel abrupt, but it added a bit of temperament. This is almost a building comparable to Yuelai Manor.
However, unlike Soren, there are crowds of people coming and going, which is obviously a place for regular business operations. After leading the carriage over the fountain, a friend immediately came up and took the carriage away and gave them a sign to pick it up in the future.
"Welcome to Lusen Grand Inn. Our store provides accommodation and catering. I wonder what you need?" I immediately followed up with a young man and began to ask about their consumption purpose.
"Accommodation." Leya said lightly.
Seeing her elegant and luxurious look, the young man didn't dare to ask anything more. He quickly bowed and said, "If you stay in a hotel, please come with me..."
After entering the hall, they found that there were people responsible for the four or five counters, people coming and going, and cars were endless. This inn had almost no time to spare.
After a short queue, it was finally their turn. A young woman bowed slightly and said, "What kind of room do you want to live in? The rooms in this store are divided into three levels: upper, middle, lower, and of course the prices are different... One gold coin in the lower room is one night, two gold coins in the middle room are two nights, and four gold coins in the upper room are one night."
After Leya finished translating, even David Mo, who had always been quite indifferent to money, could not help but be amazed. He could almost stay in an ordinary inn for a week!
