Chapter 651: City of Great Swords!

When you come to your own land, you have to be entertained. Otherwise, I feel that I have not fulfilled the friendship of the landlord. This is a common belief among the people of the Northlands. Northland people treat recognized friends very sincerely.

In the afternoon of the same day, the little Yard took Charlotte and the others to eat first, and then went to the hot springs! It was a lot of fun!

In Celtic City, the water conservancy facilities are very complete, and in many families with excellent conditions, they are connected to the water!

There are also several large and small hot springs in Celtic City, and the geothermal resources are also very rich. This has led to a great love of bathing among the residents!

This is not the same as the Southerners, and it is different from the other cities in the Northlands.

In other cities in the Northland, water resources are not particularly abundant because of the difficulty of bathing.

And those residents in the south are not very particular about personal hygiene! Scrubbing your body with clean water once a month is already considered a person who loves cleanliness.

More people take a wash when it rains, or when they pass by ponds and streams. And it's just swimming, not bathing......

That's why a lot of people have a lot of questions on them, and their hair is full of lice!

On the one hand, this reason is because bathing is very troublesome, and ordinary people can't afford to toss. On the one hand, they do not have a correct understanding of the relationship between personal hygiene and physical health.

There are even many people who believe that taking a bath often will cause the body to be weak and easy to get sick!

This view was particularly recognized in the years after the magic plague, the Black Death, raging!

After the collapse of the Bright Star Empire, human civilization was devastated.

All kinds of knowledge and technology have been lost, and people have become frightened and ignorant. And there are many churches that contribute to this ignorance. Because only the most stupid people can give the most devout faith!

After the destruction of the Bright Star Empire, the Black Death broke out, and the last remaining major cities were destroyed during the three-year plague.

Only a few remote villages have escaped!

Under the deliberate misdirection of the believers of the extraterritorial evil gods, people began to kill the "Witch of Chaos". Countless suspected women have been lynched to death.

Because of the inaction of the Church of the Gods in the early stage, the action of "hunting witches" was further expanded, and by the time they found out that something was wrong, even the churches could no longer control it!

The witch hunt has been going on for almost 80 years! It wasn't until the number of women was severely reduced, and all people had relatives and friends who were brutally killed during the period, that things gradually subsided......

This led to three consequences:

1. The rat people behind the Black Death, the relieved Church of the Gods are almost extinct! At that time, basically all the intelligent biological regimes signed an agreement to exterminate the rat people! There are many clans of the evil gods in the outer realms, and the people of the main plane and even the inner and outer planes are all strangled. But there are very few like the nezumi who have been completely defeated. In particular, Grasalon, the most active extraterritorial evil god at that time, was killed by the Sun Knight, so since then, the extraterritorial demon has been honest for a long time......

2. The only non-demonic race in the main plane that can harness the magic of chaos, the witch, has since disappeared. Idlers can only learn about the existence of witches from books and stories. And some high-level adventurers have only heard of the witch by name but have not seen her.

3. In that time of nearly a hundred years of confusion and ignorance, all sorts of ridiculous and even hateful customs and understandings were born. The accumulation of thousands of years of human civilization has once regressed.

Among them, "bathing is bad for health, dirt resists the plague" is just a very trivial misconception.

Because of the regression of civilization, all kinds of knowledge and technology have been lost. So for a long time, the so-called doctors will only bleed (whether it is a headache, brain fever, diarrhea, toothache, all of them are bloodletted for treatment), vomiting (what do you have leg pain?). Let's try emetic therapy! ), enema (yes, an enema!) At that time, people thought that the reason for getting sick was because of a problem with bodily fluids. Therefore, bloodletting, vomiting, and enema have become the most commonly used and only treatment methods. )

In fact, doctors often use these three treatments together......

For enema, it has even been used by some fashionable aristocrats as a reserved program for private gatherings......

But even such a doctor with a greater probability of killing than curing a disease is not available everywhere!

Because many people think that sickness is due to a person's sin! So pray with all your heart!

But the clergy are so scarce, even the time to treat the nobles is very tight, how can there be time to treat the commoners?

Moreover, many diseases cannot be cured by low-level divine arts.

For example: kidney stones!

Low-level magic can't turn that little pebble away, right?

Another example: a dislocated shoulder.

If you don't do bone correction and just use magic treatment, then in the end, your shoulder may become deformed. I can't exercise properly anymore!

You don't let believers heal, but you can't waste precious magic on civilians, you can't let believers die, right? Therefore, this is why the profession of physician has been passed down.

……

But the three northlands are different!

It can be said that the Three Kingdoms of the Northland are the few places that have inherited the legacy of the Bright Star Empire.

The predecessors of these three countries were the three provinces set up by the Canxing Empire in the Northlands.

At that time, the gods were defeated to the mortal world, and the northern land naturally could not be left alone, and it was inevitable that they would be beaten into a mess.

But fortunately: the three provinces of the Northland were the most backward places at that time, so the Black Death broke out in the south! By the time it reached the Northland, the Northland people had already woken up and taken all kinds of preventive measures. In the end, although it was not completely spared, it also retained its vitality.

Because of the legacy of the Bright Star Empire, Celtic City is so advanced.

Here, public baths have become standard. Whether it is a commoner, a small merchant, a small nobleman, or a big nobleman, they can all find a bathhouse that matches their identity.

And there are also many public toilets on the side of the road! Charlotte went out of his way to try it, and although the roots were rough, there was a regular flush.

He even saw a line on the outer wall of the toilet: Those who defecate in the open, may the gods chop you to death!

You know, in all the cities that Charlotte passed, those little alleys were full of excrement! When it rains, it's a dung flow! The whole city stinks! But Celtic City is clean because people have made a conscious effort not to defecate in the open! Thank God!

The bathing culture of Celtic City has also developed particularly well. Not only does it have sauna steam (the stone is heated and poured with water to produce steam), but there are also very skilled technicians who will give you massage and health care!

Many big aristocrats will train their own specialized technicians and take pride in it~

Although because of the presence of Alice and Artoria and others, Yard did not take Charlotte to experience the full set of health care! But it also made Charlotte, who had never been able to enjoy it for more than a year, linger!

Lie back in the hot springs and enjoy a massage by a skilled technician, surrounded by delicious ice wine and fruit bowls. There are even special hobbies, which also offer pickled cucumber strips and radish strips......

Charlotte shook the goblet in her hand, and in the red wine of the glass was an ice cube carved into the shape of a small fish. The icefish collides with the glass, making a pleasant tinkling sound.

This glass is crystal clear and beautifully shaped, and it is a rare glass product.

The craft of making glass is left behind by the Bright Star Empire. It's a pity that only the craftsmanship remains, and the production principle is lost. So much so that the production of glass was too low and was regarded as a luxury.

And because of the high price, the great nobles who master the technology are secret, so hundreds of years have passed, and the technology has not been improved.

"How? Is Celtic City paradise? Yard the Short asked Charlotte, with a smile that all men understand.

"Cool~" Charlotte replied without looking back.

Yard waved his hand, and the technicians and maids left silently.

He continued: "In fact, Celtic City is famous for its gold grottoes! People in this city will be super enjoyed! ”

"Celtic City is the only wine region in the Northland, and it is the most commercially developed city! There are three amphitheaters, five small concert halls, and a large arena that can accommodate 40,000 people at a time. There are also more than 30 mid-to-high-end brothels@......"

Charlotte narrowed her eyes and whispered, "That is, we ......"

"There's a lot to be done!" Yard answered excitedly.
