Chapter 296: The Tavern Heard
After Satoshi and Bentassen filled out the registration form, the fence that blocked them was opened, and they walked over.
This underground passage is lit by many glowing stones, and it is very bright, and there are many castle guards inside, as well as many snow horses and vehicles.
"Please pay the entrance fee, two white tiger coins per person."
At this time, the coachman in front of a carriage came over and said to Simon Satoshi and Bentasen.
Ximen Cong glanced at the coachman, and then shifted his gaze to the city guard, who said: "Yes, each person who enters the city has to pay two white tiger coins, but not for nothing, these two white tiger coins are for the coachman, and the coachman will be responsible for taking you anywhere in the city." β
"I see, it's not expensive."
Simon took out two white tiger coins and handed them to the coachman, at which point Bentasen tugged at his sleeve.
"What's wrong, Bentarson."
Simon Satoshi was puzzled, he didn't know what Bentason meant.
"That, Xuanyuan Cong, I don't have any coins, you can help me give it to me."
Bentathan whispered in Simon Satoshi's ear.
"That's right, little thing."
Simon Cong happily took out two more white tiger coins and threw them to the coachman.
Then he and Bentarson got into the carriage together, and the coachman sat in front of them, and they ran through the underground passages, and in a short time they appeared in the Icebreaker City.
"Where are you going, I'll pull you there, you don't have to pay extra, the cost is all counted on those two White Tiger Coins."
The coachman said.
Simon thought about it, and he looked at Bentasen again, and saw that Bentasen was also looking at him.
"Where are you going, Bentathan?"
"I don't know."
Bentathan shook his head.
"Then let's find a place to stay."
"Okay."
After discussing with Bentasen, Simon Cong said to the coachman: "Take us to a better hotel, we want to stay." β
"Okay."
The coachman waved his whip, and the carriage moved quickly.
Saimen Satoshi sat in the carriage and looked out of the window at the scenery, this city was quiet at night, almost no one could be seen, but the houses were brightly lit, proving that there were creatures living inside.
Soon, the driver stopped, and after Simon and Bentasen got out of the car, he said, "There are hotels around here, you can choose for yourself, I'll go, drive." β
After the coachman finished speaking, he rode away quickly.
Satoshi looked at the surrounding houses, and there were very conspicuous signboards on the top of the houses, all of which were hotels one by one.
"Which one to choose?"
Satoshi Ximen asked.
"Whatever."
Bentarsen returns.
"Okay, let's choose the penguin hotel, we came through the penguin sea, there is a penguin hotel here, and it is quite fateful."
"Hmm."
Satoshi and Bentathan walked to the door of the Penguin Hotel, which was a half-length door, not yet fixed, gently swaying in the wind.
Satoshi pushed open the door and walked inside, there were some tables inside, and a counter, on top of which lay a fat humanoid creature.
Simon Satoshi took a few steps, and the humanoid suddenly woke up, looking at Satoshi and Bentasen, its eyes glowing, and then a warm smile came from it.
"Welcome, good both."
"We want two rooms."
"Okay, five White Tiger Coins a day in one room, including food."
"Well, that's ten White Tiger Coins."
"Good. My name is Fat Bird, and I'm the boss here, so you can call me if you have anything. β
Simon Satoshi and Bentasson nodded their heads in understanding.
Below, Fat Bird took two wooden signs with keys and gave one to Simon Satoshi and Bentasen.
"The wooden sign on the key has the name of the room, please go upstairs by yourself."
"By the way, do you want to be almost something."
Both Simon Satoshi and Bentasen were a little hungry, and of course they agreed.
After that, they went up the stairs to their room, where Simon Satoshi's keywood sign read 309, and Bentasen's keywood sign read 308, but they were next to each other.
When they arrived, they were living at the opposite door.
"Okay, let's go in and rest, and I'll talk about something tomorrow."
"Well, good night, Bentason."
Satoshi said goodbye to Bentasen, and he entered his room.
The inside of the room was not bad, there was no bed, and there was a cushion on the floor, which was where to sleep.
There is also a cubicle in the room, and there is a pool in it, which seems to be a hot spring, and it is steaming.
"Yes, it's comfortable."
Satoshi Ximen is very satisfied with this place.
Soon, the waiter at the hotel brought the food, and after Ximen Satoshi finished eating, he cleaned up before leaving.
"Soak in a hot spring and sleep, it's really not easy to get dusty along the way."
Simon Satoshi thought.
"There are still thousands of White Tiger Coins, which can be squandered for a while"
"Hey, most of the white tiger coins are in that car, and the car was smashed at that time, and I can't bring much of my box of white tiger coins."
Ximen Cong sighed lightly, went to soak in the hot springs, and fell asleep in a very comfortable state.
When he woke up the next morning, Satoshi went and knocked on the door opposite, and when he found that Bentasen was not in the room, he went downstairs to find Bentasen sitting at a table on the first floor eating.
Satoshi also asked for a meal, and sat down with Bentasen to eat.
"It's delicious, the food in Baihuzhou is really unique."
"Yes, yes."
"What's next for you, Bentathan?"
"I don't have any special plans, let's go around the Ice Break City first."
"Well, so am I."
After Satoshi and Bentasen finished eating, they tacitly explored alone in the Ice Break City this time.
"Looking for the white tiger, where to find the white tiger?"
"My main goal now is to bring a message to the black tiger's wife, and to give the black bead to his wife."
"But the White Tiger Continent is too big, hey."
"Let's find a place to ask."
Satoshi was walking on the side of the road, and he saw a hotel, so he naturally walked in.
"Hello, what do you want to drink?"
"Have a drink."
"Ice Wine, a White Tiger Coin."
"Give."
Simon Satoshi paid, took the wine he was looking for, and sat down at random.
There were many people in this tavern chatting about something, and Simon took a few sips of wine, and then listened patiently.
"Did you hear that? Did you hear that? β
"What? What the? β
"Don't talk nonsense, tell me if you have any news."
"I've heard that Lord North is coming to inspect our place recently."
"Lord North? No way? No way? It can't be that man, Lord North, right? β
"That's right, you're not mistaken, it's all of us in Icebreaker CityβLord White Tiger North."
"I heard that Lord North is very handsome, right, when it came last time, I happened to go to the Xuanwu Sea for something, and it was easy to see it this time."
"Yes, yes, when Lord North came, it was a very sensational scene, and it was lively to watch."
"Hey, hey, I like to watch the excitement the most."
"Me too, me too."
"I'm more, I'm more."
"Don't say it, I have another bad news here."
"Bad news, what's the news?"
"I heard that there is a penguin sea on our route from Ice Break City to White Tiger Wharf, and the penguin sea is near the broken ice river, and our route to White Tiger Wharf is broken."
"What? Penguin Sea appears halfway from our Icebreaker City to the White Tiger Wharf town? In the Crushed Glacier? β
"Yes, I've heard it too, hey, I don't know when the Penguin Sea will disappear, I have to go back and forth from the White Tiger Pier and the ice breaker often, and I can make a lot of money at a time."
"Yes, yes, I often go to the White Tiger Pier to sell things."
"It's hard to live now, we can only trade in the deeper cities of Baihu Continent, and we won't be able to make a lot of money like that."
"Well, that's the case, this news is really bad, Ice Break City will have a hard time in the future."
"Hey."
There was a sigh in the tavern, and Simon took a sip of wine, thinking in his heart:
"White Tiger Noth is coming?"
"That's right, I don't have to go to the white tiger, after it comes, I will directly talk to it about the black tiger."
"It's from the White Tiger Community, so you should be able to know who the Black Tiger's wife is."
"Now I'm just going to wander around the ice break, just wait for the White Tiger Noth to come."
Simon took another sip of wine and continued to listen.
"There's one more big thing."
"What's the big deal? What's the big deal? β
"Wouldn't it? No way? You haven't heard of this big thing? β
"No, no, you say it quickly, you say it quickly."
"Just don't grind, hurry up."
"My news is still based on the news of the Penguin Sea, I heard that the city lord has expanded the number of city guards and is preparing to expel the Penguin Sea."
"Really? Is the castle lord crazy? Penguin Sea it also dares to provoke. β
"Shhh, you speak quietly, let the city lord's people hear, you have a few lives that are not enough to die."
"Oh, yes, I mean, the city lord is really going to expel the Penguin Sea?"
"Yes, this news is true, the announcement of the expansion of the city guard is coming out soon, and everyone will know soon."
"Yes, that's too dangerous, who would dare to expel the Penguin Sea."
"yes, yes, it's so dangerous."
"Hey, let's not talk about whether it will succeed or not, I don't know how many people will die this time."
"That's right, that's right."
At this point, the entire tavern fell silent.
"There's something wrong with the entire Ice Break City City Lord, and he wants to provoke the Penguin Sea."
Ximen Cong felt that the head of this Ice Broken City City Lord was in water, and it was snowing all day in Baihu Continent, and it was not a very strange thing to put some water in its head.
"I've experienced the horrors of the penguin sea firsthand, and no other creature can compete with it except the white tiger."
"There are a lot of them, and it's also a food delivery."
"Huh? Isn't White Tiger North coming lately? Could it be that this city lord is trying to borrow the power of the White Tiger North? β
"If White Tiger Noth makes a move, it should be no problem."
Simon thought about it.
At this moment a strange humanoid creature came from outside, with a few feathers on its head, and it still had a sad face.
"Come on a bottle of Varath."
It shouted as soon as it entered the tavern.
As it spoke, the rest of the tavern looked surprised.
"What? Warat? β
"Is that the bottle of Valat, which costs 200 White Tiger Coins?"
"Who is this person, so rich, the son of a big family."
"I don't know, look at its head, there are a few feathers."
"The people of Suzaku Forest."
"Yes, yes, no wonder it's so arrogant."
"Hey, I want to drink the valat too, and I'll be satisfied with the opening of the bottle cap and give me a sip."
"You think it's beautiful, people who want to lick the cap of the Vharat bottle can line up from here to the inner city of the city lord."
"Hey, I'm not as greedy as it, I just smell it."
"Cut~~~"
In the envious eyes of the surroundings, the humanoid creature with the feathers on its head took out 200 white tiger coins and threw them on the bar.
"Hello, are you going to open it?"
"Open."
"Okay."
The waiter opened the bottle of Valat, which was worth 200 white tiger coins, and the people around the tavern were frantically sniffing, wanting to ask about the aroma of this bottle of wine.
"Is that an exaggeration? It's not just a bottle of wine. β
"But 200 White Tiger Coins, it's really expensive."
"I'm not a particular drinker, otherwise I'd get a bottle and try it."
Simon Stoshi took a sip of his wine glass and thought.
The man with the feather on his head took the bottle and poured it into his mouth a few times, and the air around him became very quiet, and everyone watched him enjoy the expensive bottle.
The sound of its throat swallowing the liquor was clearly transmitted to the surroundings, "coo", "coo", "coo".
"Good wine."
The humanoid creature whispered, and it found a random place to sit down and continue drinking.
The surrounding humanoids swallowed their throats as if they were drinking the bottle of Vharat.
Then, I don't know who broke the silence in the tavern, and the humanoids around them were chatting again.
Simon glanced at the humanoid creature who was holding a bottle and gulping down, and he thought:
"Suzaku Sen is here, just like Bentasen, I don't know if they know each other."
"Forget it, it's none of my business, I'll continue to hear the news."
After that, there wasn't much useful information in the tavern, and they started chatting about something else, and after listening to it for a while, Satoshi left it.
When he returned to his hotel, he found that there were four or five city guards inside, and he was very puzzled, when the innkeeper pointed to him and said, "That's him." β
The sittingly city guards walked towards Ximen Cong, who frowned, he didn't understand what these city guards were looking for him.
"Hello, I'm Ou Jie, the city guard, and the city lord ordered all the outsiders to assist the city guard in a major operation?"
"A major move?"
Simon Satoshi asked, and he wondered in his heart: "Wouldn't this city lord want us outsiders to participate in its great operation to expel the penguin sea?" Isn't that for us to die? No way? No way? This city lord can't really be so disgusting, right? β
"Yes, you must go, or you will be imprisoned by the city lord for two years, and then expelled from the ice city, never to come again."
"What? If you don't go, you still have to go to jail? Why? β
"Why? With this is the order of the city lord, this ice breaking city city lord is the biggest, and everything is the city lord's final say. β
"Hmm... Let me think about it. β
"Okay, you still have a partner, it also has to assist the city guards, you can consider that when it comes back, don't think about escaping, you can't run away from this ice-breaking city, don't waste your efforts, and let yourself suffer in vain."
The city guard threatened Simon Satoshi with a word, and sat down with his companions again, chatting.
Simon Satoshi walked over to the counter and whispered to the boss, "What's going on?" β
"There's no way, this is the city lord's order, I advise you not to disobey, you are a foreigner, I don't know how powerful the city lord's prison is, no one who went in came out alive, let alone two years, the longest insistence is less than three months, hey."
"This city lord is too arrogant, isn't he?"
Ximen Cong was very angry, and he wanted to punch the city lord of the Ice Breaking City a few times.
"No way, who made it the city lord, hey."
After the innkeeper finished speaking, he left the counter, not wanting to talk to Simon Satoshi too much.
After a while, Bentasen also came back, and those city guards also told Bentasen about it, Bentasen glanced at Simon Satoshi, and Simon Satoshi replied with a helpless stall.
"What should I do?"
Bentathan walked over and asked.
"Go, what else can I do? If you don't want to cause trouble, just go and see it first. β
"Well, I don't want to cause trouble."
After Bentasen and Simon Satoshi finished speaking, the two of them obediently followed a few city guards, and they were taken to a camp of the city guards, and arranged into a large bunk room with two dozen beds in it.
Now some of these beds are lying on people, and some are still empty.
Simon Satoshi and Bentasin chose two connected beds, and they sat on the beds, chatting in voices that no one else could hear.
"This city lord is too domineering, it's really hateful."
Bentathan said angrily, clenching his fists.
"yes, isn't that bullying a foreigner? If we provoke anyone, we will come to this troubled water, and it is not a good thing for the city lord to bring us here, we are very dangerous. β
"Why? What's your news? β
"I've heard that this Ice Breaker City is mainly going to expel the Penguin Sea, so we want to expand the city guards, and unfortunately, we are forced to expand."
"What? This city lord was kicked in the head by a donkey? It's going to do such a stupid thing, isn't this looking for death? β
"Yes, you and I don't know the horror of the Penguin Sea, no matter how many people the city guards go, they will all be sent to death, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless it asks for the White Tiger's help, then our mission will be easy, and I've heard that the White Tiger Noth is coming here."
"Really?"
Bentathan asked, not at all surprised that White Tiger Noth was here, it already knew about it from Linador.
"Yes, I don't know if White Tiger Noth will make a move?"
"No, don't think about it."
Bentathan said affirmatively, which made Simon Satoshi wrapped in a question mark.
"Why? Bentasen. β
"The white tiger will not move the penguin sea, you believe me, this is for sure."
"Well, if that's what you say, that's bad, we're probably in a bad situation."
"yes, be improvised."
"Well, there's no other way." Let's read the book network on mobile phones, please visit γγ, the full text is free to read online
