Chapter 141: A Visit to the City That Never Sleeps
"Good! I've wanted to see it for a long time, and Uncle hopes you're not lying. Cute wrinkled his nose and said to Ellington.
"Hahaha, I won't lie to the little kid, let's go, uncle invites you to a big meal, you will never be able to eat outside."
"Humph! Uncle is the most annoying, people are not little children, I am the one who will become the strongest female warrior in the future, but I want to eat instant noodles. β
"Looks like you know a lot! Even the instant noodles are known, and I can rest assured that there are them inside. β
The two of them quarreled all the way to the castle, and by the time the shadow returned, Elena was gone.
"Damn, forget about Miss Jì, it's miserable, I hope Miss isn't hurt." The shadow hurriedly disappeared in the direction of the castle.
Along the way, I found that the inside and the outside are really two worlds, and the slums on the periphery are already better than those in small cities, there is no pungent smell and no black hands hidden in the shadows, even if it is Griffin City, such an environment is only available in the area of the City Lord's Mansion.
Although Elena is very naΓ―ve, it doesn't mean that she doesn't know what the folk are like, on the contrary, she has grown up in Griffon City since she was a child, she has long known the darkness outside, but she doesn't want her family to worry, so she has always maintained her innocence, in fact, the eccentricity in her heart has long been known by her family, and as a result, one is willing to pretend to be stupid, and the other group of people are also willing to accompany and pretend to be stupid, and the family pretends to be together.
After Elena and Ellington went to the outskirts of the city and saw the situation inside, Elena had to sigh that the people here were really happy.
The clothes on his body were made of unrecognizable material, but looking at the thickness and weight, it should be very warm, especially the thick gloves and the hat on his head. And the vendors, all of whom had a cage-like thing under them, glowing red, and they were thinly dressed but didn't look cold at all.
Many people will subconsciously stop and salute when they walk past Ellington. After that, he will leave, and Ellington will return the salute very politely, and they are very harmonious.
Elena looked at the people coming and going, then at Ellington and said, "I didn't think you were quite respectable, uncle." β
"Well, I'm also the first knight under the baron." With a look of pride and complacency, he almost had a few big words on his face, the first knight.
"Then why, when you were just outside, the poor people acted like they hadn't seen you?" Elena, who has a heavenly face, directly debunks Ellington's performance.
"What do they know, I'm just not there all year round. They were all a group of people who joined later, I, Knight Ellington, but I was with Lord Baron from the beginning, you must know that the Baron was not a Baron at that time, but I, Ellington, saw at a glance that Lord Baron was extraordinary, and then I was loyal to Lord Lord without hesitation, and those poor people knew something. I just don't bother with them. β
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice sounded from behind: "Really? How did I hear that wasn't the case? It is said that when some people saw their master, they still wanted to rob it, but the one who knew that the master was a noble mage, but in the end he didn't succeed, and was forced to spend a sum of money to buy grain and pay the grain tax, did I hear it wrong? β
Speak loudly. Ellington naturally knew who it was, such a nasty voice, naturally it was the nasty barbarian, Carl walked up to Ellington in full armor and looked at him with a grin.
"It's you again, it's annoying. If you don't want to be beaten, get out of the way, today I want to think about the master, I don't have time to chew your tongue. β
Ellington's face was very bad, of course, it had something to do with being debunked on the spot.
Karl shrugged and said, "You just go in, no one will stop you, but who is this man!" She can't go in. β
"This is my niece, what's wrong! Can't I bring her here for a long time? Ellington was very annoyed, and just boasted that he had brought people to the parents, and the door was immediately blocked, and no matter how he looked at it, he was slapped in the face.
"Long insight, I think there is no other plan, but Lao Dun, is the woman you looking for a little too ordinary, the master may not like it! Hahaha, I'm different, the maid next to the master is still I got it, I won't bother after saying so much, the master told me to patrol it, hey! The duties of the sheriff are really too heavy, and I can't hold it anymore! β
After laughing and leaving, Ellington spat at his back: "What the hell, this is a damn minister." β
said so, but when I thought of this simple-minded goods, I could think of sending a woman to impress the master, why didn't I think of it, I failed, I was depressed, and I was still arrogant on the surface, and I walked into the castle with Elena.
Elena could see that Ellington was not in a good mood, and it was not easy to say anything at this time, so she did not speak, and the two walked to the door of the castle without a word.
At this time, it was really not suitable to bring someone in to meet the baron, so Ellington left Elena outside and said, "You wait for me outside, come out soon, and then I will show you around the castle, and take you out to eat, a lot of delicious food, remember not to run around." β
Elena nodded obediently, Ellington went in with confidence, in his opinion, Elena is still very well-behaved, but his idea is obviously too ideal, how can Elena wait for him to come back motionless.
She has long been very strange about this castle, and she can't wait to start her adventure, by the way, she has just seen some half-elves, half-elves are not unseen, but groups of half-elves are rare, so naturally I want to go and see the excitement.
In the castle, Li Youran was already planning to rest, and he was just about to go outside to have fun with the people, and by the way, he put the guy who was playing the movie outside, and when the auction was held, he shook the group of dirt buns, and just as he was about to leave, Ellington came.
After reporting his own affairs, Ellington immediately went out, he could see that the Baron also had something to do, so he didn't waste time, but as soon as he came out, he didn't see Elena, who should have stayed here, scratched his head and thought: "This girl said she was waiting here, where did she go?" I shouldn't have run out, so let's go outside and look for it first, if I can't find it, I'll have to let Carl's damn guy find it. β
Ellington went out of the city to find out and didn't talk about it, Li Youran saw that the matter had been dealt with, so he went out of the city lord's mansion with Morton, and the first thing he wanted to go was Morton's half-elf station, where it is said that there was a good thing recently, a human woman, who fell in love with an archer who was on an errand under Morton.
No wonder everyone says that women chase men and cross heavy yarns, at first the half-elf still avoided her all day long, but he surrendered in less than half a month, and was actually taken down by a human woman, when this good news reached Li Youran's hands, Li Youran couldn't help but applaud, what is the best way to integrate, it is naturally a marriage, and now that it has made a good start, of course he is willing to be happy to see it.
When Elena came to the half-elf station, she happened to see a group of people around the two people joking, and the two people who were surrounded were also blushing, and what was even more strange was that the half-elf man was obviously a little overwhelmed, so that the human woman actually stood in front of the half-elf and said: "If there is anything you are coming to me, why do you want to embarrass my man." β
When the crowd heard this, they immediately coaxed and said, "I haven't gotten married yet, and the lord doesn't know if I agree or not, so it's too anxious to call your man!" Ha ha. β
"That's it, it's too anxious, or you're looking at me, in fact, I think I'm also very good, if you have sisters or something, can you consider me?" Those who were bold immediately began to express themselves.
Apparently this is a group of people making fun of two people who love each other, Elena watched it very interestingly, so she stopped and watched them play, it is difficult to see a group of half-elves like this, and there is also a protagonist in it who is human.
At this moment, a man shouted, "The patriarch and lord are here." β
As soon as these words were shouted, everyone stopped, and then Elena saw a half-elf and a black-haired Oriental man coming over, and under the kneeling of the half-elf, Li Youran and Morton stood in front of everyone together.
"Get up, today is also a big day, everyone is happy to play, don't have any constraints, today is a very important day, not only your people get married, but also a day that symbolizes your acceptance by mankind, I am very happy that you can find your partner, and I hope you can add new people to my territory as soon as possible." Li Youran walked up to the couple with a smile, and then took out a box with two rings in it and handed it to the other party.
"Here are two rings, one belongs to you, may you grow old together." A simple blessing made all the half-elves kneel.
Once upon a time did anyone care about them? Don't say anything about getting married, even their own lives are not guaranteed, all half-elves are slaves, it is almost a consensus, but in this territory, they are not slaves here, they have the dignity of being human beings, and even humans are willing to accept them.
"Okay, okay, probably I'm here, and you can't have fun, so I'll go first, but remember, don't play too hard, or you won't be able to do anything on your wedding night, and someone will probably hate you! Hahaha, I'm leaving, work harder, and make more people. β
In everyone's laughter, Li Youran and Morton left, they still have to go outside to have a look, if they are here, they can only be restrained. (To be continued......)
