Chapter 129 (1/1)
What is the capital of Cangshi kingdom? If you ask people on the mainland other than Cangshi Kingdom, they will tell you that it is just the center of a small country in the north. In fact, due to the vast mainland, many people are difficult to distinguish between the northern grassland and the grey Lion Kingdom bordering it. Therefore, although it is not possible to classify the Cang lion kingdom into the nomadic people, most people's impression of the Cang lion is far from civilization.
What about the actual situation? This city, which is called the capital of the grey lion, is not a super large city in the world. After all, the population of the whole Cang Lion Kingdom is probably one of the few on the mainland. It is only because of the bitter cold climate in the north that the Cang lion has a vast territory that is not commensurate with its population. But after all, as the capital of a country, the area of Cangshi Wangdu is about as large as four iron castles. That is to say, it will take at least half a day to ride around the outer wall of the capital.
Although the population of Cangshi kingdom is not large, the capital city is still full of people. With the dawn, the gates of the four directions of the city also slowly fall down the passage through the moat in the groan of the winch. Merchants who get up early and wait to enter the city to trade and farmers who need things in the city have been waiting outside the city for some time. Among the crowds was a carriage drawn by two old brown horses, on which the words ”fantastic tour of Roland in big hat” were written in some faded color paint.
”Hello, sir. Where are you from As Roland drove through the gate with a hat big enough to be used as an umbrella, the guard asked politely.
”Good morning, sir. I'm from the south, and as you can see, I'm taking my apprentice with me on the search show. You are also welcome to come to our show when you are free. ” He lowered his hat slightly with his hand to show his respect, said Roland in a happy tone. He looks like a passionate performer who is actively inviting everyone to see him.
”My pleasure, sir. But now, with your permission, we must examine your carriage, and your apprentice, where is he? ” The guards are satisfied with Roland's response. Although there are not many wandering artists, there are always a few of them in a month. After all, although the southerners don't see the kingdom of the God lion, it also shows that those things that people have been tired of seeing in big cities may be welcomed again.
”Of course, my poor little apprentice fell in love with a beautiful lady in the last town. Unfortunately, it's not possible for people like us to have a relationship like that. So he's still in the shock of lovelorn and hiding in the car. You know, young people at this age Roland said, shaking his head and spitting out smoke from his mouth. Then the old man took out a walking stick about the length of his arm from the sleeve of his robe to help him get out of the driving position of the carriage. ”Come on, I'll take you to see him. Well, it's not convenient to be old. ”
Obviously, compared with the story in Roland's mouth, the guard was obviously frightened by the old man taking out his walking stick. In this era, due to the existence of magic, people's first reaction to incredible phenomena is often the caster. And it is precisely because of the real existence of these means to turn the impossible into possible, the concept of magic has not yet come into being. So Roland's behavior in the guard's eyes was instantly close to the casters in the legend. As for the casters, almost all kingdoms dare not refuse their entry, because God knows what kind of disaster it will bring if they are rashly offended. For example, the plague brought by the Earl of salon. In the city of grey lion, there are rumors that the count of salon offended a wizard. For this reason, the guard's attitude towards Roland changed instantly. In addition to being more respectful, the old man also saw fear and worry in the guard's eyes.
”Roar, don't be afraid of young people. It's just some small skills of an old man like me. You know, when you have a beard as long as mine, it's no different from committing suicide to work on your physical strength. ” Roland said to the guard that his voice was very kind, like a kind old man joking with his grandchildren. The old man did not go to the other side to explain that his means was not magic. In the long time, Roland knew that sometimes people misunderstood their identity, but could bring unexpected convenience. Taking the guards to the back of the shed, Roland lifted the curtain behind the shed with his cane.
”My dear apprentice, don't miss your girl any more! I told you that it is impossible for you and her. Just because of your loss, I, the old man, will bring Mr. guard to care for you
The sunlight shining into the shed was bright enough. Along the light, the guard saw the appearance of the debris piled up in the carriage shed. At the same time, I also saw the young man who was half lying on the straw and covering the sudden sunlight with one hand at the bottom of the shed. Cheese's pale face because of weakness and his own appearance were paved by Roland, so that in the eyes of the guards, it was a young man who was depressed because of lovelorn. As for his special skin color, it seems not surprising that Roland is a caster.”You see, Mr. guard, this boy has been like this since two days ago. Even the physical work of driving a car has made me an old man to do it by himself. There's no time to clean up the debris in the shed Roland, with his pipe in his mouth, complained to the guard. It seems that he is really an old man who has no idea for his younger generation.
The guard simply looked at the things in Roland's shed. Because of his concern about Roland's identity, he didn't even dare to approach the shed rashly. He didn't want to think that he was turned into a frog or a spider by the mage for such a stupid reason. After confirming that cheese was indeed a normal human, but his face was a little pale, the guard also indicated that Roland was OK. He even said to cheese before he and the old man closed the curtain.
”Boy, although I know that lovelorn is a very painful thing, but you also have to worry about your father's body.”
With that, the guard went away to check on the next man with a lot of luggage into the city. Leaving a puzzled face, cheese is still thinking about when he lost his love. However, after Roland climbed into the driver's seat of the carriage again, they still entered the royal city smoothly, and did not disturb anyone except the guard's little doubt. Maybe after today, the guard will completely forget that he checked such a mysterious old man and a lovelorn young man.
And this is exactly what Cheese needs.
