Chapter 1000: Twilight (2)

"Maps?" The Aiken people seemed to have expected it and were not too surprised: "As for the map, there are indeed products in the clan, and there are marks for more than 400 cities and tribes around, which we recorded at any time when we were traveling, and it is absolutely accurate, but the larger map is ......."

An Xiaoyu frowned, she knew that although Gamai City was ancient, it was still a medium-status city because the leader of the Aiken clan was not an absolutely top-notch big race. Of course, such a city could not be expected to be able to get a map of the entire alien territory here, but four hundred cities and tribes were a little too small.

In fact, the ancestral land of the Aiken is still further south, near the barren desert. They are good at business, and although they control the city, the city is not what they want. It can be said that the Aiken people in Gamai City, since they stayed in the city, actually did not have a high status in the entire group.

Most of the Ekans with the highest status were stationed in the largest cities and tribes, and were responsible for a lot of commercial affairs and managing the city, which was not the job they wanted to do. So An Xiaoyu frowned, and wanted to ask if there were any places in the four hundred cities and tribes where they could get the map of the next region.

As the innkeeper said, the map of the Aiken is still the most detailed and affordable except for the top tribes.

As if seeing An Xiaoyu's worries, the Aiken clan in front of him suddenly said: "If the adults feel that the map is not big enough, you can go to the east of Ferlon, where there is also a station of our clan, and you can get a map of the cities around Ferlon." But here, that's the limit of what we can do. ”

An Xiaoyu expressed his understanding, after all, they relied on Gamai City to conduct business, not to travel to the entire alien territory: "Then give me the map, I believe you will be satisfied with the price." ”

The Aiken clan must be satisfied with the price, a map for a life law crystal, is equivalent to a life, they really want to encounter this kind of business a few more times. But An Xiaoyu, who got the map, was not very satisfied, this map was a bit interesting.

Gamai City is a port city, probably because of the port, so the clear range of the map is mostly along the coastline, although it is said that there are more than 400 cities and tribes, most of them are spread out in a north-south direction, and really go east to Kaferon, the distance is probably not more than 1,000 miles.

Seeing that An Xiaoyu was not very satisfied, the Aiken clan was also a little unhappy, after all, they operated in good faith, and now they have taken a big advantage, so they thought about it and said: "I don't think the adults are in a hurry to go somewhere, if there is still time, it is better to spend a few days." ”

"Huh?" An Xiaoyu asked, "Will there be a new map delivered?" ”

The Aiken clan shook their heads: "I can't say, in a few days, it will be the annual Coastal Chamber of Commerce in Gamai City, which attracts many races every year, not just the surrounding area." If you want to get a more comprehensive map, you might as well stay and try your luck, maybe you will have a chance. ”

Ann whispered a slight groan.

"Of course, our clan will also help adults pay more attention to this news."

Now that the words have been said about this, An Xiaoyu really plans to stay here for a few more days, so he nodded and said, "Then thank you, if there is news, you can come to the hotel to leave a letter, and I will naturally appear when the time comes." ”

She couldn't see the faces of the Aikens, but she knew that this guy must be crazy, and it would be a great thing for them that the Twilight Elves would stay in Gamai City, and even join the Coastal Chamber of Commerce. If you take advantage of the opportunity, you may be able to raise the status of Gamai City to a higher level.

After leaving the office, An Xiaoyu did not return to the hotel, but casually walked around the city.

The bazaar is close to the coast, almost half of the edge can see the clear beach, the port is just west of the bazaar, and when An Xiaoyu arrives here, a group of walrus-looking alien races are struggling on the surface of the sea with heavy hammers and sharp cones, trying to break the ice in the sea.

A large area of the harbor has been turned into broken ice, floating on the water, and it looks very mysterious. The icebreaker is in this shattered sea, and half of it is embedded in the ice, and if the surrounding ice is completely opened, it is estimated that it will not be long before this sea area is reopened.

An Xiaoyu knew that this was a preparation for the Coastal Chamber of Commerce, and the surrounding cities relied on Gamai City, most of which borrowed the large throughput of the natural port here, and the navigation route was of course the top priority of the Chamber of Commerce. However, there seem to be more wild beasts in the Western Sea, and the ice-breaking operations in Gamai City are often interrupted.

After a casual glance, An Xiaoyu felt bored and left, but she didn't expect a small tail to follow behind her.

Her spirit was sealed, she couldn't feel her surroundings at all, and by the time she came back to her senses, a little fox had been following her for a long time. It looks like a very spiritual red fox all the time, and it doesn't look very big, and it's the same size as a kitten.

An Xiaoyu leaned down gently, reached out and touched the little fox's head, at first the little guy was a little resistant, but when the law of life penetrated into its body, the little fox's face suddenly showed a comfortable feeling, and took the initiative to step forward and put his head on An Xiaoyu's palm.

"Little one, where did you come from?" An Xiaoyu asked.

Although the territory of the alien race seems to be unguarded, An Xiaoyu knows that there are not a large number of wild animals in the city, and there is definitely an alien race who is responsible for dealing with these things secretly patrolling. The little fox didn't know where it had crept in, and if he had been allowed to run out on his own, he would have turned into a fox in a few minutes.

Reaching out to pick up the little fox from the ground, An Xiaoyu gently patted its head and let it stay honest in her arms, and then walked into the market by the way, and found a clothing store that looked good and had the Aiken logo on the sign, and when she came out again, she had already changed her outfit.

A long white and light green skirt covered An Xiaoyu's feet, fluttering gently beside the dust wolf, just adding a touch of dust to her. The rag bag on his waist had also been replaced with a deerskin pouch, and he hung it around his waist with a light-colored ribbon woven from an unknown plant.

Even the dust wolf has an extra bag like a blanket on his back, which is used to hold some useful things, and everything he has to carry with him. The long hair is no longer completely draped, and the hair is tied up by a hairband on the forehead that is forged into a ring of branches, and there is a white metal flower on the right side, which is lifelike.

It can be said that after this costume change, An Xiaoyu is more in line with the twilight elves in people's minds. But in fact, the real Twilight elf image is closer to An Xiaoyu's previous appearance, and the dress is very simple, but no matter how you say it, it doesn't matter if you follow the local customs, An Xiaoyu doesn't want to show it to others all day long.

The color of the little fox is even more petite and cute in the light green arms, and when An Xiaoyu returned to the hotel with the little fox in her arms, it was just time for lunch. There were more and more customers in the hotel, and there were many new faces that I hadn't seen in the morning, An Xiaoyu thought about it for a while, and then understood.

The Coast Chamber of Commerce is imminent, and of course a lot of aliens are coming here, so it's normal to have more customers in the hotel. Seeing An Xiaoyu walk in, the proprietress nodded, and then her eyes fell on the little fox in An Xiaoyu's arms, and An Xiaoyu realized that the other customers were not looking at herself, but this little thing.

Sitting in front of the bar, An Xiaoyu asked, "Is there anything wrong?" ”

The little fox sat cross-legged on An Xiaoyu's lap, looked up at the aliens in front of him who were looking at him, shrank his head in fear, drilled into An Xiaoyu's arms, and made a aggrieved sound. An Xiaoyu gently stroked the fur on the little fox's back and comforted it.

The proprietress shook her head and said, "If it's an adult, it's nothing, but Gamai City has always been more resistant to foxes, which is the rule set by the Aiken clan in the city." For many years, no fox had ever been able to get out of Gamai alive and have to be spared if they entered. Of course, these two ...... around adults These three can be treated differently, the twilight elves are a race that loves nature, and the animals around adults will definitely not be filthy existences. ”

"I see." An Xiaoyu nodded, but did not move, in fact, she was already glad in her heart, fortunately she took in this little fox, otherwise she would really die if she walked around. However, why the fox is not allowed to appear in Gamai City, this is also a private matter, and An Xiaoyu didn't ask much.

"A glass of ale, rye bread, baby bison and vegetable salad, thank you."

The proprietress nodded, and it didn't take long for Ann Xiaoyu to bring over the food she had ordered, and what the Twilight Elves ate had always been a mystery, and many aliens believed that they didn't eat meat. On the contrary, the human beings, who are enemies, know better, in fact, the Twilight Elves eat everything, and they are also very similar to the humans themselves.

I finally came to the territory of the alien race, and as a foodie, of course, I have to try various flavors of the alien race, such as bison. You must know that bison is already a rare species on human territory, and to put it simply, it was eaten too crazy after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it was about to be eaten up, and it has not been relieved for so many years.

Gently forked a piece of bison meat with a wooden fork, put it in his mouth and chewed it, An Xiaoyu felt a wild taste permeate, coupled with the special spices and sauces made by the hotel, so that the whole taste was full of the taste of nature, and it was more comfortable to pour it in a sip of ale.

Throwing a piece of meat into the little fox's mouth, An Xiaoyu looked happy: "Another glass of ale!" ”

It didn't take long for the news that the Twilight Elf of the Jiuluo Hotel was a drunkard quickly spread, and at noon, An Xiaoyu drank five glasses of ale wine in a row, knowing that it was not a small glass, but a large cup made of inferior glass similar to a draft beer cup, and the aliens in the store were dumbfounded.

However, after drinking, they were not drunk at all, and no one even paid attention to the question of why the two big foxes did not need to eat.

The proprietress also seemed to be a little surprised, but after An Xiaoyu went upstairs, a smile suddenly appeared on the octopus face, for a hotel owner, guests who like to drink are always the most popular, they are the most real existence.

An Xiaoyu took the little fox back to her room, put the little fox on the stall, the little fox seemed to have never touched such a soft ground, after rolling on the ground, put her chin on the stall, pricked up her two ears, and had a lot of fun.

"Why don't the foxes appear in Gamai City?" An Xiaoyu asked, "Is it that the Aiken clan has a grudge against the fox?" ”

The administrator's little jelly said with a smile; "It's not that the Aiken themselves have a grudge against the foxes, it's that the Aiken people in Gamai City have a grudge against the foxes. At that time, Gamai City had experienced a great war, and of course there would be many races coveting such a port city, so the battle for Gamai City began. ”

"Relying on their trading position in the nearby cities, the Aiken were able to defeat their enemies almost without spending too much men and money. However, one day, a fox came to the city of Gamai, and the fox carried a basket of fruit to the front line of the Aiken people, and poisoned the soldiers guarding the city gate with a few apples. ”

"Uh......" An Xiaoyu didn't expect things to be like this: "Anyway, the fox was sent by the alien race who attacked the city back then?" ”

The administrator smiled, "The most amazing place is here, when the Aiken people have fought hard and won a miserable victory, when they signed the agreement, they asked each other if they had sent a fox. However, the other party did not seem to know that such a thing was happening, and they thought that it was the soldiers who defended the city of Gamai that day who had taken the wrong medicine. ”

"That's interesting!" An Xiaoyu looked down at the little fox who was still scurrying on the ground, and always felt that there must be some conspiracy behind this matter.

The administrator also said; "Anyway, the Aiken clan in Gamai City has hated foxes since that time, whether it is a fox-like alien race or the fox itself, other alien races are also very easy to understand, no matter how hostile they are, in the final analysis, it was the fox who made the first move, and the Aiken themselves don't know what's going on."

The little fox seemed to feel An Xiaoyu's gaze, raised his head on the carpet, tilted his head curiously to look at An Xiaoyu, and then rolled over and fell to the ground, his white belly facing the sky, and his small mouth was slightly open, as if calling An Xiaoyu.

An Xiaoyu smiled and ignored it, the little fox himself was not interesting, and went to find the frost wolf and the dust wolf. But the two spirit beasts ignored it at all, and in fact, the frost wolf and the dust wolf were not foxes in the first place, they could turn into wolves, even cats, and knives, they were just the embodiment of the origin of the law.

The little fox suddenly felt very bored, and lay innocently on the ground without moving, but it didn't take long for a slight cry to come from there, and An Xiaoyu, who was still thinking about what news he should find out next, looked over and found that the little guy was already asleep, shook his head, and didn't care.

In the afternoon, An Xiaoyu did not continue to go out, but stayed in the hotel, this morning she was already eye-catching enough, according to the Twilight Elf's quiet personality, if she went out in the afternoon, she was likely to be suspected, and not showing up was the best choice.

Throughout the afternoon, An Xiaoyu continued to comprehend the law, the law of cause and effect, and the law of life.

She knew that only the comprehension of the law was the basis for her to leave the alien territory, and only by comprehending the law to the depths could she be able to open the seal of the dantian and the divine soul, and even if she arrived at the border, she would not have to be afraid of anything. As for the so-called "high" identity of the current Twilight Elf, it can't stand scrutiny at all.

It is also applicable in this small city, or in other big cities, but if you really encounter a top race, such as the royal family, such as the race of the level of the West Mountain Ghost, they do not take the status of the Twilight Elves seriously, and it will be easy to be debunked at that time.

Especially when approaching the border, it is the place where the conflict between humans and aliens is most intense, and if you want to pass through that place, it is impossible to rely on acting, even if An Xiaoyu has not been there, she knows how strict that place will be for traffic control.

One of the reasons must have been the conflict between humans and aliens, and the Empire's tolerance of aliens and mestizos exacerbated this control. At a time when the internal economy of the alien race began to decline, under the pressure of the top races, the living environment on the side of the empire also became what many races desired.

In order to prevent divisions and contradictions within the group, both the Council of Elders and the Imperial Family must have been fully prepared for the circulation of people and the exchange of information. An Xiaoyu felt that if he arrived at the border, he would probably have to rely on force to rush over, and if he couldn't do it, he might even use frost wolves and dust wolves.

With a sigh, An Xiaoyu opened her eyes, looked at the hope that spilled in from the window, got out of bed gently, and asked the little raccoon to go to the front desk downstairs to order a dinner for herself, and did not appear in front of other aliens again, and could vaguely hear the regretful chatter of customers downstairs.

There are still four days left before the Coastal Chamber of Commerce, and An Xiaoyu wants to take advantage of the fact that she can quickly break the seal through a bigger gap, so that she can disguise the Law of Light and the Law of Life to a greater extent, and deal with other races who don't know where the venue is used.

If what the Aiken said is true, and someone will come here with a map of a wider area, then it will definitely not be the upper echelons of the Aiken tribe, or a higher race, and it will inevitably be exchanged at that time. In fact, it's not that An Xiaoyu has to pretend to be a road idiot, but a map can make her go once and for all.

If she could get a map that was detailed enough, she would be able to avoid many large races, tribes, and cities along the way. For the safety of almost half the way, it is worth spending a few more days in Gamai City, at least with a little more preparation.

As for the purpose of buying the map, An Xiaoyu can also talk nonsense that he doesn't like to go into the city, likes to detour the forest and the like, in short, the aliens are very willing to believe it.

Twilight Elves, isn't that it?
