Chapter 6 Tianshui Bisha Yi

Soon after saying goodbye to Eidolon, Roland Hill was also leaving.

"Master Miko, do you want to go to Nanfengzhou first?"

After learning about Roland Hill's decision, the captain of the fleet was surprised, but he quickly accepted such a thing. After all, the Miko-sama's affairs are not something he can interfere with.

"The news about your return to the Eastern Continent, sir, will be reported to Chun's lawsuit at the next meeting. I wonder if Your Highness would mind."

"It's okay to report this, but I hope you can talk to Chief Chun, and try to keep it secret for me, and don't publicize it."

"Understood now." The man nodded, expressing his understanding. Many big people didn't want their whereabouts to be leaked.

"Well, that's it for now. Tomorrow I'll take the sea boat to Linjie Island, and we'll part for the time being."

"I wish your Highness a smooth journey."

After leaving the Pearl Islands, Roland Hill and the group of Tuo Shitang boarded a ship heading for the twenty-two continents in the south, and set off for the vast distance.

The Eastern Continent where the Plantagenet Dynasty is located, if drawn on a map, you can see a rough dragon shape, and the dragon heart is where Luo Jing is located. The dragon head is in the high mountains in the northwest. And the continuous mountains in the southwest, while the twenty-two continents in the south are located in the position of Longwei, which is far away from Luojing.

Nanfengzhou is located at the southernmost tip of the twenty-two continents in the south, and it is also the departure and return point of another route from the East Continent to the West Continent. Follow the route between the islands, then turn to the various ports at the southern end of the continent, and enter the western continent.

Compared with the route from Wanglong Port through the endless sea to Longquan Bay, the route in the south is extra long, but the advantage is that the wind and waves at sea are relatively small, relatively smooth and safe, and the various special outputs and goods of the southern archipelago , also makes many businessmen willing to take this route.

In the past, every three to five years, the Plantagenet Dynasty would send envoys to the Southern Young Moon and the Redberry United Kingdom for certain visits and exchanges. The friendship between the two of the five phoenixes, Chifeng and Kujuan.

Thanks to this route, the commerce and trade of Nanfengzhou is particularly developed, and many people from the Western Continent live here, and you can even see some Western-style buildings and customs.

The tide slapped the side of the ship, making a soothing sound of undulating water. In front of the bar in the dark cabin, a bard was playing the piano and telling stories about the past. People who travel between the East and West continents often have to stay at sea for a long time. During the boring voyage, even some entertainments that were previously ignored have become lively and interesting.

The sound of the piano was playing fast, and the sound was gentle before it turned, and became high-spirited.

"Speaking of which, the black-faced man held the eight-edged pumpkin hammer in his hand, rode on the black cloud and stepped on the snow horse under his crotch, and jumped down from the mountain. I am also afraid that anyone who is touched will either die or be injured."

"This time the siege was relieved, and then a young woman was supported by her mother-in-law and walked out of the carriage. Her voice was like a green oriole, and her face was like a peach blossom. It made people fascinated and couldn't sleep." The bard stopped suddenly and began to drink water.

"The point is, who the hell is that girl? Is it good?" Others around were addicted to listening, and it would suddenly stop, which was really scratching.

"Cough, please wait a moment, I will take it easy for a while." But at this moment, the bard suddenly became less anxious.

"You, do it, do it, give it, hurry up and continue." He threw a handful of copper horns on the table and made a clear voice.

The girl passing by the public activity hall in the cabin saw this scene with a funny look on her face, and then continued to pass without stopping.

Although the hall was very lively, there was also a smell of alcohol and stuffy sweat, so she had to squeeze in and sit there, just take a look at it occasionally.

The sea-going ship to Nanfeng Continent was much smaller than the previous treasure ship, so the space inside was much narrower. Coupled with the various personnel in the ship, Roland Hill was always reluctant to come out for activities.

for example

"Hello, lady, are you also going to Nanfengzhou? Under Li Jialiang, people from Qiyunzhou, it's a pleasure to meet you."

A young man in a white shirt stopped in front of Roland Hill. He held a folding fan in one hand and wore a blue embroidered jade ring pendant on his waist. He seemed to have a kind of self-confidence.

"Well, can you let me go, I want to go over there."

"Of course, I just want to know you very much. Can you tell me your name? Although I'm not talented, I can pass the blue embroidery exam. Now I'm traveling, and I want to see the great rivers and mountains of the next dynasty."

After he finished speaking, he deliberately turned his body sideways to reveal the blue embroidered jade ring hanging from his waist.

Is it blue embroidery? Roland Hill recalled the dynasty's fame system. The highest are gold embroidery and silver embroidery, and the rest are seven colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, and purple. Among them, purple is the most expensive, followed by blue embroidery.

Generally speaking, if you want to enter Jixia Academy for further studies, you must have a blue embroidery at the minimum, and the age cannot exceed the limit. This one looks relatively young, and it is indeed not easy to achieve blue embroidery.

However, the exchange between Jixia Academy and Emenas also recognizes the strength of their students. If they are students who graduate normally, they can directly get the rating of Silver Embroidery. The rating, as for further down, there is no.

Although it seems to be very preferential and very high, considering that the entire Western Continent has gathered so many talented students, and only about 400 students can graduate normally every year, this evaluation is actually not low.

"I'm sorry, I'm not interested, can I let you go?" The girl showed an embarrassed expression.

With a polite smile, I just wanted to bring Dai Ju out. It would be much more convenient to use this guy to drive people out.

It's a pity that the other party is not the kind of person with a thin face, or he is used to being sought after by others, so he is very uncomfortable with Roland Hill's indifferent appearance.

"Miss, maybe you don't know much about the dynasty's fame. In fact, Lanxiu is second only to Zixiu's rating. In Zhou County, you can fill in the vacancies at any time, sigh... I wanted to serve the country, but However, my father asked me to grind for a few more years, and then I will be admitted to Zixiu." He still shook his head as he spoke.

"Well, I see, please get out of the way."

In this regard, Roland Hill reluctantly shook his head, I am afraid she is also good-natured, and if other witches were here, this young man would have been thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.

Just when the girl was thinking about whether she should use her abilities to shut up this son, someone finally interrupted her boasting.

"This little brother, you've blocked humanity, just let it go." As he said, a huge palm pressed on his shoulder, making the young man so short that he could barely stand still.

A burly and sturdy man came behind him, and the palm with thick knuckles seemed to be bigger than the head of this gentleman, and seemed to be able to twist the other's head like a little duck.

Feeling the surging momentum emanating from the strong man behind him, this young man could not soften, and his face turned pale and let it go.

"Let this lady laugh, you go."

"Thank you, uncle." Roland Hill cupped his hands, saluted slightly, and walked over briskly.

When she left the cabin and went to the deck, the strong man released the big hand on the shoulder of this young man.

"You, you, actually..." Rubbing his sore shoulders, the young man began to look for excuses and accusations to accuse the other party. The things he learned on weekdays can only come in handy at this time.

"My name is Xiang Tianhe, you can come to me at any time." After speaking, he turned around and left, and continued drinking with his friends who were waiting beside him.

"Why were you so enthusiastic just now?" the old friend on the side asked with a smile.

"It's nothing, I saw that she came with the people from Tuo Shitang, so I helped me out."

"It turns out that, Tuo Shitang, I'm afraid it will be very sad this time. Forget it, we can't control this, let's continue drinking."

After leaving the interior of the cabin, Lorraine Hill went up to the deck and looked at the sky and sea in the afternoon.

It should be coming soon. I heard Wei Lengyan say that they will stop at Linjiezhou, instead of sitting directly to the end, Nanfengzhou. Linjiezhou is on the northwest side of Nanfengzhou, and it is closer to Qingxiaozhou, and Wei Lengyan and the others are members of the branch of Qingxiaozhou.

Facing the sea breeze, the girl's mood was much more relaxed. She thought for a while, stretched her hand behind her head, pulled off the hairpin, untied the tie, and let her hair flutter in the wind, feeling the fineness of the hair. A relaxed feeling of air blowing over the side of the ear.

After a while, he re-tied the hair behind him, and then inserted the hairpin. The corner of the hairpin had a butterfly that was about to fly, and it was also decorated with blue gems. Made from the style of hairpin Trinasha left her.

In fact, at first she didn't care what style of hairpin or hairpin she wore, but as she got used to wearing the blue butterfly hairpin, she also had feelings and liking, so she just didn't change it, it was her little feature. .

In the next few days, although there were occasional people in the boat who wanted to strike up a conversation, the clever Loren Hill would always ask the members of Tuo Shi Tang to help him stop or solve it, so there was no problem along the way.

Early one morning, there were cheers and shouts from the deck, and then Roland Hill also knew that he saw the coastline in the distance.

After about an hour of sailing, the ship was firmly docked in a medium-sized harbour, and many people disembarked to relieve the boredom on board.

"Finally back." Several people in the same group breathed a sigh of relief. The journey was really bumpy, but the task was completed anyway.

"Let's find a place to stay, and leave tomorrow to return to Qingxiaozhou."

"Yes." The group carried the salute, as well as the incomparably valuable wooden box, which contained the potion that Roland Hill gave them.

"Lord Jialan, please come this way." Wei Lengyan came to the girl and acted as a guide.

There is a huge archway on the harbour pier in Linjiezhou, with the words 'Linjie Mansion' written in a red pen on a white background. This is not only an important port of Linjiezhou, but also the state capital.

Many pedestrians can be seen in the wharf, and occasionally there are some yellow-brown prison cattle pulling mountain-high trucks to transport goods. Compared with ordinary animals, these prison cattle are several times stronger and can also pull more and more. heavy cargo.

In the sky, you can occasionally see passengers landing on giant birds. Those giant birds have cars tied to their backs, and their beaks are covered with iron mouths to prevent people from hurting. After landing, they first lie down and let their backs The person above gets down and then gets up again.

Compared with the Western Continent, the biggest difference in the East is that the use of monsters and beasts is more here, and these domesticated beasts can be seen everywhere, participating in people's life and work.

"The guest is here, the guest is here."

As soon as he entered the door of the hotel, the black-billed bird in the bird cage made a sound to remind the staff in the store.

"Hao Le, come here." A clerk wearing a blue cloth turban rushed over, then greeted a few people to sit down and asked.

"Excuse me, how many people are staying at the hotel?"

"There are nine in total, including two ladies, and at least four rooms are needed."

"OK,

Wait a minute, everyone, I'll take a look at the room. "After he finished speaking, he opened the cabinet door on one side and glanced over it.

There are wooden signs nailed to the counter, with the room number in the hotel written on it, and then there are hooks below, some have signs, some are empty, and there are many signs, some say one day, Some say five days and so on.

"There are just four more rooms here, not far from each other. I will arrange registration for you." After that, he skillfully opened the booklet in his hand, and then asked them one by one.

After some registration and narration, a small bag of silver rings was placed on the table, and then the clerk also handed the keys to several people.

"Please come with me." After saying that, he led the way ahead.

The structure of the hotel is similar to a quadrangle courtyard, in which the front hall is used to entertain guests, as well as tables and chairs for dining. On both sides of the courtyard are kitchens, latrines, and places for livestock and goods. Four floors.

Walking into the yard, Roland Hill glanced over and saw a prisoner cow squatting in the stable. It was very big and had colored threads wrapped around its two corners, which seemed to be a unique custom of other small clans.

After walking up to the small building where they lived, a few people put down their luggage, and then they relaxed.

Four of them stayed in the hotel to rest and take care of the goods, three of them went out to buy some things for the road, while Roland Hill and Wei Lengyan were free to move around.

"Want to go shopping in the street? Lord Jialan."

"Go, I'm also very interested in this place."

"Hehe, I've been to Linjie Mansion a few times before, I'm familiar with it, here's a guide for you." After speaking, the two walked out of the hotel's door.

It seemed that it had just rained on the street, and the blue stone bricks were still wet and steamy. The houses on both sides were not short, but had several floors, with white paint on the sides and blue and black tiles arranged on the top.

Linjiezhou is located on the coast and in the south, and the rainwater is very rich, so every household here likes this kind of blue tile with better waterproof, and the ground also has perfect drainage ditch.

Recalling the time in the mountains of Ximu before, people there rarely used tiles, and most of them were thatch and wooden boards, so that they could prevent rain, because there was very little precipitation in the mountains of Ximu, so there was no need to worry too much about this.

Walking on the street after the rain, Roland Hill looked at the shops on both sides with curiosity. Many pedestrians also carried paper umbrellas that were put away, and there was still fresh water vapor in the air.

Here you can see some porcelain shops, bookstores, restaurants for drinking tea, shops selling Western-style clocks and lamps, cloth shops, clothing shops, medicinal materials shops, medicinal herbs pavilions, classics bookstores, steaming cloud shops, pearl and jade pendant shops, etc. .

Compared with the inland, the goods in the seaside ports are much more complete. Roland Hill occasionally sees one or two blond or red-haired Westerners. Some of them speak oriental languages ​​fluently, similar to the locals. Coming and living all year round.

"Lord Jialan, do you need anything to buy?"

"It seems that there is nothing missing, but some things are quite fresh and curious, let's take a look."

"Then go this way, there is a shop with very good clothes. They specialize in Tianshui Bisha clothes, and their ancestors also made clothes for the nobles in the palace." Wei Lengyan felt that the eldest lady should be interested in clothes, and cited He led Lorraine Hill to an elegantly decorated clothing store on the street, where many young girls were choosing clothes.

"Bixia Tsing Yi Square"

ps: Haitianxia and Tianshuibi are both precious fabrics that have appeared in history.

"The Story of the Five Kingdoms" volume: The sky is blue, because the people in Yu's inner circle are dyed blue, and the evening dew is in the atrium, which is dyed by the dew, and its color is very good, so it is named.

"History of the Song Dynasty, Records Eighteenth Five Elements Three" contains: Yu Palace is filled with rainwater and dyed light blue for clothes, and the number is "Tian Shui Bi".
