Chapter Eighty-Seven: The people who sit in the well and watch the sky always occupy the majority
Behind the city gate, there is the concrete outline of Shenghan, and the neatly planned houses are lined up one after another, and the ground is paved with white stone.
Brightly coloured people adorn the streets, especially the exotic bewitching beauties.
The wide main road stretches forward, with small lanes forming a complex route that extends in all directions.
The huge ground lion snorted white air from its nose as it pulled the heavy cargo forward.
This monster beast has a very gentle personality, the appearance is the same as that of a lion, three meters tall, without fangs and claws, it loves to eat grass, and it can eat any grass very fragrantly.
Because of this habit, they were often used by the caravans of Feron as coolies.
After all, the tricks of the big merchants have always been kept secret from the outside world, and they will never sell Trojan horses that walk on their own to others.
Mary looked around in high spirits, and when she saw something interesting, she pulled Shi Qing's hair and spoke excitedly.
It's a pity that Shi Qing couldn't understand a word, but it didn't affect his happy mood.
It's a shame to say that the last time he was in Portugal, most of his attention was on the princes and princesses, and he didn't appreciate the exotic streets at all.
So this was his first experience in a foreign country, and it felt very new and interesting.
To be honest, just looking at the appearance here, it is hard for him to imagine that the rest of the country is already full of robbers and government strikes.
One big and one small had a lot of fun, John was a little impatient, and he couldn't wait to appear in the second prince's mansion at once and get rid of this Taoist master as soon as possible.
Under John's thoughts, they finally arrived in front of the second prince's mansion.
"Mary, I'll go up and knock on the door, and you wait here," John said with a beaming face, and the man walked to the window of the room on the side of the barred door, and told the doorman what he meant.
Shi Qing looked at the mansion in front of him, it was very luxurious, there was a white avenue straight forward behind the iron bar, there were trees and lawns on the left and right, and there were four fountains.
At the end of the avenue is a six-storey fan-shaped building with colorful windows that shine in the sun.
Such luxury should not be owned by Mary's father, otherwise, it would be okay to take his wife and daughter, why should he leave it in that country.
However, if you work here, the salary should not be low, so why leave your wife and daughter in the countryside?
Shi Qing couldn't figure it out, so he put it aside and didn't continue to think about it, this was someone else's family matter, and he shouldn't interfere more.
After about six or seven minutes at the door, a sturdy figure appeared on Baishi Avenue.
With a national face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, it can be seen from his appearance alone that the person who came is a person who pays attention to loyalty and righteousness.
"Jack."
"Daddy."
As soon as the barricade door opened, two different voices rang out, and the words were full of surprise.
Jack was also happy, first hugged John, then knocked off the other party's shoulder, and then crossed Mary, hugged him in his arms and rubbed his face, "Good baby, I miss Dad." ”
"I miss Daddy too," Mary said sweetly.
Between father and daughter, the scene is so happy that outsiders can't intervene.
Shi Qing, who was watching from the sidelines, had a sour nose, remembering the past with his father, he turned around and wanted to leave quietly.
After making out, Jack finally remembered that there was another outsider, "John, who is that person?" ”
Before John could answer, Mary preemptively said, "Dad, the eldest brother is a good man and takes good care of me on the way. ”
"Jack, that's the Taoist master of the Shang Kingdom, let's try to get involved as little as possible."
Jack was shocked, Shang Guo Daoist, isn't that person?
"Actually, we came this time to have bad news to tell you, on the 24th of last month, Jenny passed away, we wanted to inform you as soon as possible, but it was too chaotic outside......"
Jack's brain buzzed, as if countless gongs and drums were ringing in his ears, shaking his brain dizzy, Jenny died?
The woman who loved to laugh, love flowers, and love him even more passed away.
Yesterday, he was still thinking about going home to spend time with his family when the matter was over......
He stood on the spot.
As a close confidant of the second prince, he is accustomed to life and death, and understands that anyone can usher in death, and those who live need to wipe away their tears and move forward.
But this time the news of death was so heavy that it was almost unbearable for him.
"Daddy, woo, I miss Mommy so much," Mary cried out with her little hand by the collar.
Jack was shocked by the crying, and he didn't care about Shi Qinghe's sadness, he hurriedly reached out and touched his daughter's head, "Okay, Mary, don't cry, your mother likes to laugh the most, you always cry, it will make her sad." ”
Mary still cried.
Jack was helpless and comforted with kind words.
When Mary stopped crying, she remembered that there was another big brother, and when she turned her head to see that the big brother was gone, she cried again.
Shi Qing, who said goodbye without saying goodbye, was on his way to the palace.
He thought that his fate with Little Mary ended with the end of the journey, and he didn't play any sad goodbye, as a sentence in his previous life, I went gently, just as I came gently, waved my hand, and did not take away a cloud.
The palace of Guraton is located in the northern highlands of St. Han, which is composed of large and small palaces, with a nine-meter-high wall at the bottom of the highland, and the four gates are heavily guarded to prevent ordinary small disturbances.
Because the buildings on the high ground were very conspicuous, Shi Qing could conclude at a glance that it was the palace, he ran to the palace gate and said to the guards guarding it: "I am Shi Qing, please go in and report, I want to see King Guradun." ”
The guards had already received the news, and without hesitation, they moved out of the way: "The king has ordered, you can go in directly, and the carriage has been prepared over there." ”
Shi Qing nodded, stepped into the palace gate, and stepped into a carriage that was open on all sides, with only bead curtains hanging down.
The driver was majestic and silent, waiting for him to get into the car, and without saying a word, he directly waved his whip to drive away the white horse.
The carriage made its way up the highlands, passing through many palaces along the way, and finally stopping in front of a palace at the top of the highlands.
The semi-circular roof, with something like a lightning rod erected in the center, and stone pillars lined up one by one on the perimeter, and a guard standing under each stone pillar, the scene looked full of solemnity.
Shi Qing stepped out of the carriage, and a woman wearing a thin skirt who vaguely revealed her flesh color as she walked walked stepped forward, speaking fluent Dashang dialect, "Master Shi, the king has been waiting for you for a long time." ”
"It's a bit of a hurry," Shi Qing smiled, without further explanation, and followed the woman into the palace.
The outside of the hall is solemn, and the inside of the hall appears empty and full of atmosphere.
There are no excessive ornaments, and only rely on the ceiling and stone pillars to carve the scene of the Taoist master and the demon beast fighting, highlighting the shocking beauty.
Shi Qing exclaimed slightly, and did not act too explicitly, it is easy to be said to be a dirt bun, especially on important occasions in a foreign country.
At this time, he represents not himself, but the face of Dashang.
After all, there are always the majority of people who sit and watch the sky, and they often judge the overall quality of a country only by seeing the bad behavior of some people.
