Chapter Eighty-Four: Peace
Walking into the tavern on the coast, unlike the quiet atmosphere of the tavern in Larante, here, it is quite noisy.
Lu En had just walked in when he could smell a strong smell of alcohol.
"There's a new face! Hey! Little white face, come and have a toast! The man with the tattoo on his arm raised his glass and laughed, he put his arm around Lu En, and then poured the contents of the wooden wine glass into his mouth.
A cloudy ale mixed with a little foam rolled down his neck and dripped onto Luen.
Kara frowned, trying to suppress her urge to screw the man's head off.
The master's body, she will be sincerely afraid when she touches it, and she will be hooked by these people at will?
Lu En didn't care much about it, but he didn't like it very much, so he pushed the drunk away and walked into the bar by himself.
The people around him began to heckle, and the sound shook the four walls, "Hey! Bub! Where are you from? ”
"Look at his timid face, you can tell at a glance that he is a city man!"
"In the city...... What a place! You see the women around him, who are more beautiful than the prettiest of. ”
"He smells of milk!"
A bunch of vulgar sailors pointed at the newcomers, both curious and disdainful.
As sailors who fought against the wind and waves on the sea, they had never looked down on the little white face who went out with a maid, even if it was a nobleman, and here, the nobleman did not dare to offend them.
At sea, no one wants to offend sailors and crews.
Looking at the group of sailors around him who were drunk on the ground, Lu En stepped over to a drunk man who couldn't speak and found a table where no one was around.
There was originally someone here, but he carried the drunk man lying on the table and threw it out, so it was empty.
In the tavern, a large expanse of sea food smells through the nostrils.
On the low platform in the middle of the tavern, the dancers had just finished their movements, shells, herbs and other things hung everywhere they could, the windows were wide open, and the wind was blowing, but the smell of fish did not diminish in the slightest, after all, even the sea breeze was full of fishy smell.
Kara didn't sit down, she stood quietly beside Lu En, waiting for her master's orders.
The drunk man passing by wanted to touch the beautiful woman's buttocks, but before he could do so, Kara's upper body remained motionless, but she took a step back and broke his toes with an expressionless face.
The drunken man screamed, rolled out onto the road with his legs in his hands, and then was kicked by the other sailors who were giggling, and no one cared about such a thing.
This is the atmosphere at sea, no one will be afraid of the wind and waves, and even a fool will challenge the wind and waves, but when you are photographed dead on the shore, no one will care about you, of course you can touch a woman's buttocks, but when you are trampled on your toes, others will only laugh at it.
This kick made a lot of noise, so Kara bowed slightly and said to Lu En, "Sorry master, I lost my temper." ”
"No, as long as it's not something I don't let you do, you don't need to ask me about other things, you can realize your ideas, but don't be too arrogant, it's better to keep a low profile." Lu En said casually: "Have a glass of golden honey wine, right?" ”
The bartender, a young man with a bow tie, immediately replied, "Of course, I will prepare it for you at once, but you don't have a low-key look in your tone, sir." ”
"It varies from person to person, but when you meet someone who should be low-key, you will still be low-key, by the way, prepare a room for me, and I plan to live here for a while." Lu En said to the bartender.
"Yes, sir." The bartender is not surprised, this is on the edge of the port, and I don't know how many people walk in and out every day.
Lu En opened the room, came to his room with wine, sat silently, took out a pen and paper from time to time to write and draw, and in the evening, the waiter came in and lit the fireplace and candles, and served dinner.
Carla had been standing by his side, and the master had not spoken, and she naturally had no need to speak, but just like that, she was very satisfied, and the quiet time with her master made her feel happy.
Lu En quietly watched the fire in the fireplace, the flames rising and falling. The shadow of the pyre and other shadows flickered outward, and on the first night he came to the harbor, he didn't do anything else, looking at the harbor outside late at night, he suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "Kara, do you think what I did is useful?" After I leave Larante, the local aristocratic forces and traditional street forces should also support another United Chamber of Commerce, another Hall of Radiance, and those monster hybrids have not yet awakened, they are just glad that they finally have something to eat. ”
Kara didn't know where her master's worries came from, but she replied honestly, "I don't know," she replied, based on her honest personality of preferring to be realistic. ”
It was a very constructive answer, which made Lu En can't help but laugh out loud.
His mood suddenly improved a lot, so he stood up: "Okay, go to sleep, there will be something tomorrow, Coral will come to us tomorrow, and then we will go to the bottom of the sea to have a look." ”
"Yes." Carla said immediately, and then, the usually cold dragon maid suddenly became a little shy, and she asked again, "What...... Do you need me to warm my bed? ”
"That's why I open a double room, and it's not very soundproofed." Lu En stepped on the floor under his feet, squeaking and squeaking, it was obvious that there was only a thin floor, and he could even hear the sound of walking downstairs.
Kara visibly became disillusioned, but quickly picked herself up and began to serve her master to wash.
The night went by—
When the first unclear light pierced the linen curtains, Lu extinguished the candle. Of all the hardwood beds he had ever reclined, the inn was not particularly good; In fact, it only takes a move of your nose to immediately tell how unruly the tattered cotton wool on it is, and how fishy it smells.
Stepping down the creaking wooden ladder, Lu En bought two bowls of fish soup and two pieces of bread for two copper coins. The soup has a strong sea fish, just to wash away the unbearable smell of sourdough bread that has been fermented for a long time. Stepping over the drunken man lying on the ground, he walked out into the street, along the edge of the harbor and onto the beach.
The beach here is quite suitable for relaxation, the sand is very fine-grained, and the morning tide takes up most of the space. Dry, semi-dry, and still moist seaweed lay in layers on the sand and rocks, a large number of dead shells, their grayish-white shells embedded in the lower part of the rocks, and jellyfish or small crabs crawling that had just washed up.
The sea did not completely recede, the wind blew towards the ocean from behind, and Lu En stood on the highest boulder nearby, looking out at the sea at the beginning of the day.
Nice morning.
