Chapter 504: By boat

Blowing out the candles on the table, Princess Sophie cautiously poked her head out and glanced outside, before beckoning to Mickey and Lu Tao, who were still staying in the house: "Let's go, there's no one outside." ”

Lu Tao and Mickey followed, and Mickey lowered his voice as he walked and asked, "Where are the things you want to take?" We must be careful to avoid the patrolling soldiers on this floor. ”

"Don't worry, I have already told the captain of the patrol team during the day to tell them not to patrol around my room at night, and the reason is also ready-made, because I have been away from home recently, so it is difficult to fall asleep at night, and I will wake up at the slightest movement, so I can rest assured that no one will come to this floor. ”

Seeing Princess Sophie's confident appearance, Mickey had no choice but to nod, and reminded by the way: "Anyway, we have to speed up, even according to the best scenario, they haven't found out that you have secretly left the palace overnight, and they will definitely find out about this matter tomorrow morning, by the way, what about your maid?"

"I asked her to go home, because she was going to go with me then, so I asked her to go home and spend more time with her parents, and this reason is also normal, right?"

Mickey nodded: "That's no problem, in this case, maybe it can buy us more time, so let's hurry up, let's go." ”

For tonight's action, Princess Sophie deliberately changed into a more flexible dress, without extra skirts and lace to restrict movement, and soon the three of them arrived at a corner on the second floor, only about fifty meters away from the room where Princess Sophie was.

The door outside this room is a little different from the shape of other rooms, it doesn't seem to be a place to live, there is a huge iron lock tied to the middle of the door, Lu Tao reached out and touched the frame of the door, only to find that most of this door is made of metal, if you learn from the bridge section that Lu Tao once saw in the movie, you may make a pleasant sound, but now is naturally not the time to do this kind of thing, otherwise it will attract patrolling soldiers, it can't be said.

Princess Sophie took out a key that glowed with golden light from her pocket and inserted it into the huge iron lock on the door, and with a click, the lock was opened, and Princess Sophie carefully placed the open lock next to her, and then pushed the metal door in front of her hard, looking rather heavy.

"I'll do it here. ”

Lu Tao added, then stretched out his hand and gently pushed the door in front of him, and it only took about one-tenth of his strength to push the door open a gap that allowed people to enter.

"Thank you for your strength. Princess Sophie took a step forward and slipped into the gap where the door opened: "I can go in here by myself, and I'll come out when I get my things, and you will wait for me outside for a while." ”

Mickey and Lu Tao didn't object, it was dark inside, even if they went in, it didn't make much sense, especially if they were unfamiliar with the furnishings inside, and they knocked over something and attracted soldiers patrolling outside, it would be worth the loss.

Princess Sophie was really fast, it was only half a minute, she came out of it, she had to spend time here to find something, Lu Tao didn't see it, and he didn't know what it was, thinking that Princess Sophie put it into his backpack, he didn't think too much, the three of them continued to walk out, and began to follow the original path to enter here back to the outside of the palace.

Of course, when they returned to the outside of the wall, the two men who were making out were already there

It's really good that Lu Tao avoided seeing the scene of spicy eyes.

......

There are two city walls inside and outside Issos, the innermost city wall divides Issos into the inner city and the outer city, but the outermost wall is added later, neither has the majesty of the tunnel wall, and the materials are not very particular, although it is not the kind of level that pushes down, but it is so low that it is not like words, about two meters high, not as high as the wall outside the courtyard of some nobles in the inner city.

To Lu Tao's surprise, it was not the first wall that prevented everyone from escaping from Issos, although the wall would close the gates in four different directions at night, but in fact, there was still a way to bypass it, and I don't know if it was because it had been peaceful here for too long, even the defense became so lax, if there were enemy spies running in from these flaws at night, and then setting fire to it, I don't know how much damage it would cause to the city, especially when the inner city was inhabited by nobles.

The outer wall seems to have been repaired in the past month, and the protruding or broken parts of the wall have been filled in and leveled, leaving the three of them with a smooth wall, without any place to climb, Mickey studied for a long time, and his flaws as a half-hung soldier were revealed, although he could jump up and touch the top part of the wall, but the strength on Mickey's arm was not enough to lift him up, so until the end, he could only look like bacon hanging from the wall ready to dry.

In the end, Lu Tao really couldn't stand it, if the road was blocked here, it would be too ridiculous and generous: "Mickey, don't move, I'll help you go up." ”

Saying that, Lu Tao directly reached out and grabbed Mickey's calf and sent it up, and let it turn over.

"Ahh

There was a short exclamation, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and Princess Sophie was startled, and leaned on the side of the wall and whispered, "Mickey, are you okay?!"

"Ahem...... I'm fine...... Hurry up and come here!"

The second thing Lu Tao sent over was Princess Sophie, Princess Sophie did not fall over like Mickey, but was caught by Mickey on the opposite side, and then fell to the ground, so he didn't have so much trouble making himself, and with a light jump with his hands, he crossed the city wall that was very low for him now.

After crossing the last wall, the air outside seemed to be different from the breath of the city, and Princess Sophie took a deep breath and showed a big smile: "Great! I'm finally free!"

Immediately after, Princess Sophie looked at Mickey: "Mickey, where are we going next?"

Mickey was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Lu Tao, Lu Tao twitched the corner of his eye: "What do you see me doing, do you mean that you haven't thought about where you should go next in advance?"

"Hehe......" laughed quite unnaturally, and Mickey said embarrassedly: "I really haven't thought about where to hide next, now the range of human beings can move freely is too small, no matter which direction they go, they will soon come to the border, and outside is the territory of the demons, we can't hide within the range of the demons, in that case, we haven't been found by the king, we will die." ”

Mickey paused for a moment, and then continued: "Otherwise, we will find a way to join a certain cathedral, as long as we enter the cathedral, no matter what country it is, there will be no way to search for it, and then we will be safe." But the cathedrals we're going to have to be the ones that are near the border

The churches, the cathedrals of the capitals of various countries have been infiltrated by the nobles quite strongly, if you hide there, you will soon be detected, and each large bathhouse does not know how many hidden rooms from other nobles, in this case, the cathedral near the border may be in danger, after all, it is the forefront of the war, and it will be threatened by demons all the time......"

"I have an idea. Lu Tao thought for a while and said: "It's better for us to go directly to Harias, as the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place, I think as long as we go to Harias, even if it is early tomorrow morning, the people in the palace find out that Princess Sophie is missing, and they will never think that we will be in Harias." ”

"That's a good idea, let's go to Harias!"

The first to echo was Princess Sophie, and then Mickey also nodded: "Then let's go to Harias, I want to think about it...... Harias is in this direction, you need to cross a mountain range, or go around the mountain from the waterway, I recommend taking the water route is better, Sophie's physical strength is not very good, I don't know how long it will take to cross the mountain, and there may be unpredictable dangers. ”

Lu Tao nodded: "No problem, then we will take the waterway, we must reach Harias before those people find out!"

......

It was not until dawn that the three of them came to the side of a wide river, and on both sides of the river were lush forests, and they bypassed these forests to see a well-built wharf, and many boats were parked on the water outside the wharf, which were rising and falling with the rippling waves, and seemed quite quiet.

"Ah...... It's finally here, and if I don't feel like I'm going to die......"

The weak voice came from Princess Sophie, she never seemed to have stayed up late to rush by, whether it was mental or physical, it was greatly affected, and after walking for a long time, she could only hand over a huge burden on her body to Lu Tao, if she continued to let her carry it herself, it is estimated that she would not be able to go here at all.

Seeing the dock in the distance, after being relieved all of a sudden, Princess Sophie couldn't wait to fall to the ground immediately, and finally held up her spirit and walked in the direction of the pier.

Because it was still early in the morning, the dock was a little too quiet, and Mickey was not polite, walked to the edge of the dock where there were more boats on one side, jumped into a small boat that looked quite sturdy, reached out and tapped the door in the middle of the cabin, making a thumping sound in the silent air.

After a while, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties opened the door of the cabin fiercely: "Who? Knocking here early in the morning, don't you want to live?!"

Mickey reached out and took out a gold coin from his pocket, reached out and tossed it, and said, "A gold coin, send us to Haryas, do you want to earn this money?"

"One ...... Gold coins?" Looking at the glittering gold coin in Mickey's hand that was illuminated by the morning sun, the middle-aged man seemed to be about to pop out his eyes.

Lu Tao remembered that the conversion unit of money here is that one gold coin is equal to one hundred silver coins, and one silver coin is equal to one hundred copper coins, so the gold coin that Mickey is holding now represents 10,000 copper coins, according to the purchasing power of this world, ten copper coins can eat a good meal, in other words, a copper coin may be equivalent to a dollar in Lu Tao's world, and a gold coin is equivalent to 10,000 yuan。
