Chapter 5: Arthur, My Knight

Han Ji opened his eyes and found that he was still on the street of Zhivadin, and the position of the people in Yuanbi had not changed, and he estimated that during this period, maybe time in the outside world was stagnant.

Han Ji stood on the street, looking around, desperate to see Arthur appear.

After a while, Han Ji saw a figure walking in the distance, he was wearing a brown and yellow tribal warrior suit, this is a kind of samurai clothing, it is a slim-fitting style, with the existence of a collar, it is a kind of clothing that is not old-fashioned in modern society, with his sun-like blonde hair, Han Ji knows that he must be Arthur.

"Your Excellency, the knight Arthur Pendragon has asked you for allegiance." Arthur walked up to Han Ji and knelt down on one knee, saying the oath in his mouth.

"I, Arthur Pendragon, swear allegiance to the man in front of me, henceforth his enemies will be my enemies, his pursuit is my pursuit, no matter what strong enemies and difficulties I face, I will be fearless, I will guard his honor and life with my sword, until the end of my life, and never betray."

The sudden oath startled Han Ji, but he quickly reacted, this was a knight's oath, and the person who took the oath was the hero he summoned - Arthur.

After Arthur finished his oath, Han Ji stretched out his right hand and put it on his shoulder and said.

"I, Han Ji, as the Marquis of Dingyuan of the Tang Empire, accept the allegiance of the knight in front of me, I swear that I will treat my knight fairly and justly, will not let the glory of the knight be tarnished, will not let the loyal and brave knight be buried, from now on I will share my glory with him, under the witness of heaven, I will never break my oath in this life."

After Han Ji finished his words in a solemn and formal tone, he and Arthur formalized the pledge of allegiance.

Passers-by in the distance seemed to see this scene and were pointing at them, Han Ji pulled Arthur up, "Arthur, my knight, let's find a place to talk." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency, I know there's a place where the ale is very good, let's go have a drink and celebrate!" Arthur seemed in high spirits and immediately proposed to go for a drink.

"Let's go! You lead the way. Han Ji also felt good.

"Then let's go, my lord." Arthur led Han Ji down the street and walked towards the southwest of Zhivading City.

"My lord, you see that Zhivading is very prosperous, right?" Arthur pointed to the passing caravan traveler and said to Han Ji.

Han Ji looked at the streets in front of him, some coming in and some going out, some pushing carts and pulling goods, some carrying and some hand-carrying.

Merchants carry goods with carts and horses, mercenaries guard caravans, coolies civilians carry goods, and large shops have clever men in front of them to greet business, and from time to time you can see well-dressed merchants entering and leaving the shops.

"That's true." Han Ji thought about it and felt that such a city in ancient times was indeed prosperous.

"This is the trading market of Zhivading, where all the bulk commodities are traded, such as the iron of Kulao, the furs of Kudan, the small amount of salt and the large quantity of smoked dried fish, which are exchanged for cotton clothes and grains, fine pottery, tools, oils, spices, etc."

"The first street is all about big trades, and many of the shops here are run by foreign merchants, but the second street is different." Following Arthur's words, Han followed them to the second street.

"This is a point of sale for loose goods, where there are relatively many goods and relatively cheap, and residents of wealthy areas in the northeast sometimes choose to walk a few more steps and shop here." Arthur said.

"Arthur, you shouldn't be a resident of Zhivadine either! You seem to be familiar with this place very well. "Han Ji is a little curious, could it be that the summoned heroes have a lot of knowledge?

"Your Excellency, I have been wandering on the continent of Calradia for several years, and Zhivading City is the city where I have stayed the most." Arthur said.

"Alright! How long do we have to get to our destination? Han Ji doesn't care, for the heroes produced by the system, they can't be looked at with ordinary eyes.

"Our aim is Third Street, which is coming soon. It was a place where foreign merchants and travelers settled, and where mercenaries gathered, where all those who begged for a living with swords would wait for their employers to come to their doors, and of course many outlaws were among them. ”

"Most of them are taverns, inns and small warehouses, and there are also plenty of places for men to vent, as well as some weapon workshops that sell and repair weapons and equipment."

"The security here is quite chaotic, it's okay during the day, just beware of thieves stealing, if it's night, there will be a lot of robbers eyeing lone passers-by."

Under Arthur's explanation, Han Ji has an understanding of the situation of Zhivadin, just like in the game, the city at night is dangerous.

"Your Excellency, we have arrived." Arthur pointed to a tavern and said to Han Ji.

Han Ji looked at the tavern in front of him, thinking that this should still be able to stay, why did Han Ji say this, because the signboards were all drawn.

Outside the tavern, there is a sign with no words, on which is painted a moonblade axe, below which is the appearance of a glass of wine, and then there is a pattern of roast chicken and a bed, which is really a very vivid surface of the tavern's name and business scope.

Because most of the mercenaries are illiterate, Han Ji thought.
