Chapter 529: (1/2)

No matter how strong the race is, there will be a day of decline and decline, just like the blood spirit empire back then.

There is probably still some way to go to the Principality of Referno, because it has been delayed for a long time, it is probably not realistic to reach the gate before dark.

Moreover, Ji Bai is not sure that he can enter the city. Although there is an acquaintance in the city that he is familiar with, he does not expect her to help him. Now the disaster is approaching, and even the imperial city has issued a wanted order against him. , The other party's first reaction when seeing him was not to ask the guards to arrest him, he was about to burn incense for blessing.

The horseshoe flew in, and soon he saw the towering walls of the border town of Lefno.

After all, it is a powerful Principality. The wall material is made of glass stone. The pure white wall seems to be frequently maintained and wiped away. It can be seen clearly even at night with low visibility.

The guards on the city wall were holding torches. As one of the several powerful principalities, the guards were absolutely passable. Compared to the gang of scattered soldiers in the southern countries, I don’t know how many times they were stronger.

To Ji Bai’s surprise, his forged identity, a knight on the road, did not arouse the suspicion of the guards. Ji Bai was a little surprised. He had been refused entry into the city by several small fiefs for ”identity problems” and other reasons. To be honest, he didn't hold much hope or said that these little lords did not intend to let any suspicious people into the city in order to protect themselves. This armor almost put the label ”I am a suspicious person” on his head.

Ji Bai, who led the horse into the city, wondered, but he didn't see the color of the two guards outside the door calmly faking each other.

”Oh, there's another traveler here, but it's really rare. The sky is gone, my husband, do you want to stay in the shop?”

”Huh?” Ji Bai's eyes, who was lost in thought, were attracted by the innkeeper who passed by in front of the store.

”Mr. Traveler, don’t hurry. You may not be able to find another one after you pass this store. There is only one store in this area. You may have to go for a long time to find the next one, and the sky is already here. It's too late Ji Bai looked at the sky: ”It seems that it does bother you, is there still room for your shop?” ’

There is only one shop in this area, and it hasn't been full of customers. Isn't it weird?

Chapter 44 ~ You are waiting!

Isn't it strange that there is only one hotel in a radius of tens of miles, but it is not full?

”Guest, should you come back to the Duchy of Lefno for the first time?” The boss is dressed as a wealthy commoner, and his clothes are made of fine linen fur and rich in colors.

The coat of arms of the Scarlet Empire has strict class specifications. Common people are not allowed to wear clothes made of high-quality materials such as silk and carved satin, which are exclusive to the nobles and the royal family, and no amount of money will work.

In addition, there are specific color rules. Wear black or white robe on the street and nobody cares about you, but if you wear a black and white robe, there will probably be a group of officers and soldiers coming over to encircle you soon.

The nobles regarded this behavior as an overstepping of the common people, a provocation to the aristocratic class, and would never tolerate it at all.

Ji Bai nodded. If you count the time, it has been two years since the last visit to the Principality of Leferno. Compared to the local snakes, he is indeed an outsider who doesn't understand folk customs.

”Then it's normal, sir, you didn't find anything unusual on your way to the Duchy of Referno?” The boss sighed, and after looking around vigilantly, he pointed to the sky and whispered. ”This day, it seems like it's going to rain. Ji Bai glanced at the night sky. The stars are shining, and the black curtain is dotted with invisible ends. The moon is hanging high in the sky without any cover. Tomorrow is probably a clear day. The rain obviously meant something else.

”Recently, the outside of the city is not peaceful. It is said, ah, but it is said that the civil turmoil in other principalities is very serious. The people are suffering from war and displacement. It is a luxury to live.” The boss's words are full of complexities. ”I don’t know if it’s true or false. If it’s true, I also hope it’s false. It’s a rumor.” If it’s true, then this country may not be peaceful anymore. It is impossible to dream of peace in a corner. Yes, the war will burn to Lai sooner or later...

”Sir, you don’t look like a refugee or a refugee. I don’t even know the armor on you, but I know it’s not easy. When this country is about to fall apart, you are here again. What are you doing here?” The boss's gaze became deep at that moment, but it seemed like an illusion and disappeared without a trace in the next moment.

”It's just a passing traveler.” Ji Bai was silent for a moment.

”Okay, maybe that's the case. It's an old man. I think too much. Or, it's a husband. You don't want to tell me. But no matter what the sheep is, I'm sorry. As an innkeeper, I seem to talk too much. Please come in. Mr. Bar, it’s getting late. If you miss this store, you might have to use the sky as the bed.

Ji Bai didn't hesitate, and followed the boss into this shop with large specifications.

The hotel is divided into three floors. In addition to the lobby reception area, it also includes some entertainment venues, such as pubs, card rooms, and the like. The second and third floors are probably where you stay, and there is also a backyard. ”Mu'. The overall scale of this area, even if the per capita is higher than the average value of the Scarlet Empire, Leforno can be regarded as a wealthy person.

The hall was bustling with hustle and bustle. There were many entertainment venues, so they didn't deliberately limit their volume.

Ji Bai is not a person who likes to have fun. On the contrary, he has some small prejudices against this kind of feasting place, while Bai Ji likes to be alone in a peaceful environment.

This noisy environment made him feel a little uncomfortable. After the front desk paid the money, he got the room key and went upstairs.

”Sir, if you have any needs, you can ring the curse bell on the bedside table. Our staff will come to serve you, order food or have some other needs, we will try our best to meet.” The receptionist added very intimately.
