56. Ways of traveling

readx;?ā€œ Xueya, why hasn't he been playing with me lately!"

The person who spoke was a young girl, with sun-like blonde hair and two small ponytails, and with the undulation of her voice, dissatisfaction was written on her beautiful and delicate little face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

She complained to the snow-white kitten in her arms, the white cat showed disgusted eyes, and shook her head, "Meow!"

"If only I could hear what Xueya said! he doesn't play with me, and Xueya accompanies me, and Xueya will be happy in Mia!"

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Meow!"

"Xueya, don't move. ā€

Probably because of the uncomfortable position of being held, the white cat quickly broke free, ignored its owner's call, jumped down and turned back as if with a hungry smile, and slipped into the nearby grass and lost his figure.

"Really, does Xue Ya like hide and seek so much?"

Miya pouted, followed as well, and came to the grass where Xue Ya had fled, bowed her head and bent into the grass.

"Wait for me!

The little princess of the kingdom of Jade, Mia Mozraf, chases her pet Xueya, and once again chases her in the palace with her pets, and the guards who stay by her side secretly know the little princess's temperament, a little naughty, but never do anything that makes her brother angry, such as always showing up on time for lunch and dinner.

Gradually, the work of the guards became more relaxed, and the white cat named Xueya wore a special magic collar around his neck.

Ten hours usually pass quickly, and since it's night, as long as you close your eyes, don't think about anything, relax, and soon you will enter the dream. Then, the next day came quietly, and in the habit of it, another long night departed.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ļ¼ā€

Danica woke up in the morning with some shock.

"That's right...... They left. ā€

Yesterday morning, she got up very early and went to Lance's tent.

She said a lot, and the relationship between the two was as good as ever.

"Anyway, you guy, don't make me say anything embarrassing. ā€

At that time, in order to try to recover her composure from the rapid heartbeat, Danica deliberately said this, and as soon as the words fell, she heard the laughter of the other party, and seemed to reveal a trace of regret.

"I'm sorry, Danica, I didn't mean to make fun of you. ā€

Lance said this at the time, basking in the early morning sun.

"Anyway, I have a lot to say to you and hear about the recent events, and I want to stay here longer with you. ā€

"Hmmm......"

"It's not just me, Neil and Charlie too. ā€

"Speaking of them, I did something that is not in line with the city lord, I understand what you want to say next, let's go find them, maybe they have already come out to find us. ā€

Not long after leaving the tent, Danica and Lance ran into a guy who couldn't get acquainted with each other.

"Do you have ......?"

"Ahh ā€

"What are these words?"

"Miss City Lord's stinky temper has come again, and she has begun to get angry again in the morning. ā€

Paz shrugged, "It's not easy for you, I admire you." By the way, in order to celebrate your reconciliation, I will give you a little information, I know where Neil and the others have gone?

"Don't sell it!"

After that, they found Neil and the others, and they had breakfast together.

At the breakfast meeting, in small talk, they roughly talked about where they were going next, and they would pack up and leave immediately after breakfast.

"Thank you for your hospitality!"

"Danica, to be honest, it's really nice to see you're okay, you really worried us yesterday. ā€

"I'm sorry for worrying you, but please forgive me for saying only sorry words. ā€

Danica bowed her head deeply, she was still very immature, not only to worry Dawn and them, but also to worry about the important guests and friends of the mountain city, this time it was a serious breach of responsibility. In her heart, she blamed herself.

"It's okay, Neil and I didn't take it personally. ā€

Xia Li smiled, not angry.

"Nothing but the experience of going to the tavern was unpleasant. ā€

"I'm sorry, I'm to blame for this. Lance picked up his knife and fork and cut the bread in front of him into small pieces, which he had only heard about later, and Lance was already drunk by then.

Before putting the small piece of bread in his mouth, Lance said, "I really didn't expect the Dragon Slayer Knight of the Sword of Light to drink so shallowly, haven't you ever touched wine?"

"My home is a pharmacy, and every day I stay in the pharmacy, I smell of medicine, and I can't help it. ā€

Neil shrugged his shoulders, and Xia Li next to him added, "Actually, Neil went to the tavern with his friends on the day of the coming-of-age ceremony, but unfortunately he was kicked out by the tavern people before he could sit down, because of the smell of medicine on his body. ā€

"Don't mention it! Xia Li! I still feel embarrassed, but I happened to be injured during training the day before, and I was annoyed by the nagging uncle, so I took a medicinal bath. ā€

"That's a very rude sentence, it's a medicinal bath made from the herbs that Uncle Baker has spent a lot of time gathering, and it proved to be quite effective afterwards, isn't it?"

"It's all forced...... Wouldn't it be enough to just use healing magic?"

"I don't think Ami will let you rely on healing magic every time you get hurt. ā€

Hearing Ami, Danica looked away, as if looking for something, and asked the two of them.

"By the way, where is Ami going?"

"Ami? Ami is always idle. What's wrong? Do you have something to find Ami?"

"I think Ami must have run to the tavern, there must be rumors of my gaffe yesterday, Ami will definitely not miss it, if you really make fun of me, I will really be angry!"

Xia Li shook her head, "Neil, really, don't mention this again, I think my nose always smells that wine smells, and I am not allowed to step into the tavern next time! However, we had traveled so many places to apply for benefits, and when we came back this time, we all felt that everything was not in vain. ā€

Xia Li said her feelings truthfully, "At first, we didn't have much impression of Ridingpa City, but after living here for a while, Danika, you and everyone else feel like returning to Shenge Harbor. The rebuilding of Ridimpa is well underway, and Neil and I are looking forward to the day when it returns to its former prosperity. ā€

After the breakfast meeting, they were to set off immediately and pass through the city of Ridimpa, and I don't know how long it would be.

In any case, their desire for a better place in Ridingpa is not false.

"Thank you, after that day comes, I'm sure it won't disappoint anyone. ā€

The people here love this place, and many people, including Danica, even if they meet someone who wants to move away, in the end, everyone does not give up, and the people who love this place still choose to stay here, including those young people who have longed for a better and more comfortable life.

The topic began to revolve around the mountain city, and the atmosphere became relaxed, and Dawn, who was standing next to him, also smiled, interjecting a few words from time to time.

However, the purple-haired and purple-eyed girl who came to the mountain castle with them still had a cold expression, and what made people really care was her action of eating bread non-stop.

"I was really surprised, I thought at first that I was going to prepare so much food to satisfy my hunger on the road......

At the beginning of breakfast, Charlie approached Dawn with a small request to prepare at least thirty pieces of bread.

Then, the purple-haired girl kept picking up the bread, and in less than ten minutes, the plate on the table was half empty.

"What's the matter, isn't it strange that you eat more than the average person?"

Joel glanced at them, didn't explain why she was able to eat so much, and continued to eat the bread on the table.

They watched as Joel picked up the last loaf of bread and drank several large glasses of water in a row, and the breakfast ended the day. Danica asked Dawn to pack his things, and he accompanied them out in the direction of the entrance to the mountain town. If nothing else, Ami will probably be waiting for them there.

Charlie pulled Neil and deliberately walked in front, and also took Yo'er with her, leaving the back seat for them.

"Danica, this time it was commissioned by the Sifang Temple himself, and you know that, like you, I want to be even better. Lance pondered his thoughts for a moment and spoke slowly, "This task...... Expect it to take a lot of time, and I can only tell you so much. ā€

"I've heard all this, and I don't need to explain it to me. On the contrary, I thank you for stopping by to see me when you are passing by in Jainlut. ā€

Lance looked at her and stopped abruptly.

"Again, I will try my best to become an excellent dragon slayer knight, no less than other people's excellent dragon slayer knights. ā€

"I know, what you said is exactly what I want to say, I will try to be a good city lord and make Ridingpa City more and more prosperous, this is my goal, my ideal. ā€

Danica isn't good at saying sensational things, which is embarrassing.

Lance looked down and smiled, then looked ahead.

"I really miss it, I really like it here, if possible, forget it, when I didn't say it. ā€

"It's so convenient to have a teleportation array now, by the way, I want to tell you that I have a new plan, and when this place becomes prosperous, I will go and meet with the president of the Magic Guild and set up a teleportation array here. ā€

"That's really looking forward to it. ā€

"I won't disappoint anyone's expectations. She swore that seeing that the destination was already in front of her, the prepared carriage was ten meters away, and Neil and the others were already waiting for them there.

"Looks like I'm going to hand you over to them, Lance, be careful. ā€

"I'm more worried than I am about whether you're sleeping well. ā€

"You're so annoying. ā€

Danica glared at him, took something out of the pocket of her jacket, and shoved it into the other.

"This is for you, I spent a lot of time writing it, read it slowly on the road, remember, it's only for you to read!

"Is this a letter?"

"It's all I want to say to you, remember! it's burned after it's finished, it's okay to tear it up and throw it away, anyway, don't stay. ā€

"When you say that, I really want to keep it in its entirety. ā€

"Hey!"

"Just kidding. ā€

"If you tell the truth, I will not let you go. ā€

Danica glared at him again, bowing her head slightly, looking at the Sword of Thunder on Lance's body.

"Sword of Thunder, I'll leave everything to you. ā€

"Don't worry. ā€

They got into the carriage, and Danica and Dawn watched the carriage leave, and turned around to find that at some point, there were more people around them, all around Danica.

"Oh, Miss City Lord, why didn't you tell us in advance, if it wasn't for Paz telling us, at least we could have sent them. ā€

"Why did they stay here for a day, I thought they would stay longer. ā€

"I actually missed it, and when I put down what I was doing, I saw the shadow of the carriage leaving, so I wish I had come early. ā€

"Everyone is really enthusiastic, don't stand here, let's go back. The old butler waved his hand and told them not to stand here, but his expression was a little confused, "I haven't told Young Master Path about this, how did he know that Young Master Lance left this morning?"

"He must be hiding somewhere to eavesdrop! I'm going to talk to him when I go back!"

Yesterday morning's experience replayed in her mind, and Danica pinched her face hard.

"I had to work hard today. ā€

******

After more than a week, Samuel and Vivian arrived in the easternmost border town of Carransland, not far from the border line.

At this time, Samuel was settling the travel expenses consumed along the way in the room, and the cheapest time to use the magic guild's teleportation array was one hundred and fifty gold coins, which was enough for a middle-income family to consume for several years, and if it was an ordinary civilian family, a little saving could last for ten years.

"I didn't expect it to take so many times, one hundred gold coins at a time, and for two people, a total of one thousand two hundred and five gold coins. ā€

Samuel felt blood dripping from his heart, and it took seven hundred gold coins to get here each, and they passed through eight towns, and it took a day and a half to take a carriage ride along the way.

"Including room and board, it cost nearly two thousand gold coins at once. ā€

Samuel considered taking a carriage ride next time, and it was only five gold coins at a time. In the wagons where carriages and coachmen are rented, five gold coins are also quite expensive, and they are all young and strong horses with full physical strength, as well as relatively comfortable carriages, and at least it will not feel too bumpy to sit in.

"If it weren't for the long time it took to ride in a carriage, I would have chosen a carriage. ā€

Samuel struggled with how to solve the problem of expensive travel expenses.

"What the hell are you going to do, you can't spend more than a thousand gold coins every few days. ā€

Distressed, Samuel suddenly thought of his former self.

"Why did I set this goal at that time, in fact, 10,000 gold coins is enough for a commoner to spend several generations. ā€

Samuel began to avoid reality, thinking about whether he wanted to be an ordinary farmer, doing a little work every day, without being too industrious, and this ten thousand gold coins was enough to spend several lifetimes.

"How is that possible! What's the point of a day like that! I make money just to be a commoner?!"

Immediately, this idea was defeated by reason.

That would be foolish, Samuel really wanted to have his own estate and servants, not to be busy making money.

"Maybe it's an opportunity. ā€

Owning your own manor and servants is not something that ordinary people can do casually, and it is not easy to obtain the qualifications as a nobleman.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ There should be some channels to buy the status of a nobleman, and it is not impossible if it is a declining nobleman, but there must be more money. "But to save enough money to buy the status of the nobility and squeeze into the upper aristocratic society with the new identity of the declining aristocracy, it will take more money.

"Meow! Vivien is back!"

The sudden voice interrupted Samuel's consideration, and when he looked up and saw the cat girl pushing the door in, he recalled the expenses along the way, and frowned, expressing his displeasure in a mocking tone.

"You're so happy. ā€

"What's wrong, meow, I'm hungry, I want to eat grilled fish?"

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ I almost vomited when I smelled it. Samuel walked over to her, "You shouldn't just go out to buy food, do you have any news from the Adventurer's Guild?"

"Meow? Vivian didn't go to the guild's meow, I don't know where it is!"

"You don't ask passers-by. ā€

"The question is the meow that I asked, but it's so strange meow, repeating the meow that the other party can't understand a few times, and Vivian gave up meow!"

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ You don't ask while eating grilled fish, do you?"

"How smart Meow, Samuel, do you know Meow?"

"Forget it, it was my mistake to rely on you. Samuel took out his purse and said to her, "I have calculated all morning, and I have thought about it many times, and the cost of the journey during this time is seriously out of my budget. I decided to solve this problem in two ways, one is to see if there is a caravan to go to Jiainlut to recruit guards, if not, use the second method, to buy a domesticated magical beast, but we are not magicians, there is no way to sign a magic pet contract with it, we can only spend some more money to buy a magic collar to make it obedient. ā€

Horse-drawn carriages are a method for ordinary people to travel, rich nobles or businessmen usually use the teleportation array of the magic guild to travel, of course, there are also some people who use Warcraft instead of horses as a tool to go out, but this method is dangerous and not the first choice for most people. Therefore, this mode of travel has gradually faded out of people's sight, and only people who are quite confident in their own strength will use it, and there are very few such people.

"It's strange meow, is it so dangerous to use a monster as a mount? After being out of the territory for so long, Vivian has only seen the monster car once on the road. ā€

"If it is not to sign a demon pet contract, how can people believe that the demon beast will be safe, even the demon pet contract is also dangerous, and if a low-level magician forcibly signs a contract with an intermediate demonic beast, there will only be one result, being killed by that intermediate demonic beast. Samuel shrugged, "I'll popularize it for you, countries began to ban civilians without power from using Warcraft vehicles a hundred years ago, and now only adventurers and mercenaries dare to do this, but that is also a minority, the Warcraft of the magic dealer is not cheap at all, and powerful adventurers usually choose to catch Warcraft in the Warcraft Forest, which is more cost-effective." ā€
