Chapter 483: Camping (1)
Early in the morning, a procession of royal guards from three countries set out on the road, heading towards Africa.
This team consisted of tens of thousands of people, all of whom were escorted by cavalry, as well as camel teams and elephant teams, that is, elephant soldiers riding elephants.
The dowry and dowry were loaded with more than a hundred carts.
The bride, Princess Helen, was drawn by eight horses and was richly decorated.
Since they were going to the Fire Dragon Mountain of the Phila Kingdom to find Michalta, Shangguan Yu's team also moved forward with the family sending team. The armored car was at the front, the open top was opened, and the team members sat on the roof and watched the scenery along the way.
Now that he knew the location of Micharya, Shangguan Yu was not in a hurry, and slowly moved forward with the family sending procession.
When they arrived at the border of Dora and Phila, Mojise, the king of Nara, took his own people and the send-off party and made a detour to Nara.
And Rubis, the regent of the kingdom of Naro, was also sent here and did not go forward, and when the welcoming procession of the prince of Duru crossed the border, he would lead his people back to the house.
Rubis, who was originally appointed as the regent by Shangguan Yu, insisted on assisting the crown prince, so he changed the title of the regent to the prime minister regent.
The bride, Princess Helen, and her brother, King Mogise, wept at some time, needless to say. However, it was said that the welcoming procession crossed the border and officially entered the territory of the country of Philadelphia.
There were far fewer deserts in the land of Philadelphia, and oases began to multiply.
Setting out before dawn, he trekked all the way from King Dora to the border, and by the time he reached the border, it was already dark, and the daylight had lasted nearly forty hours.
All the people were also sleepy and tired, and Prince Dulu, who was riding an elephant, said to Shangguan Yu, who was sitting on the roof of the armored car: "Divine Venerable, seeing that night is about to fall, this is still early before the time of our royal city, why don't we camp again?" ”
Shangguan Yu stood up and looked around at the front of the car, which happened to be an oasis, with a small village and a small river not far away. The surrounding terrain is relatively flat, not suitable for ambush, so he said:
"It's okay, I've been walking for so long, not to mention us, even the mounts are tired, so it's time to camp and rest."
Dulu then ordered to go down, and all the personnel camped on the spot, wrote down the supplies, lit a bonfire to cook, fed the mounts with water and fodder, set up tents, and those who did not have tents went to receive blankets.
Sita is hot all year round, with temperatures above 35°C. It's going to be hot to sleep on the ground with a blanket, so it doesn't matter if you have a tent or not.
Prince Dulu prepared two large tents, one for himself and the bride, and the other for Shangguan Yu's team.
While everyone was busy camping, Shangguan Yu and Du Lu stood together and asked, "This day is so long, how can this night be so short." ”
Dulu pointed to the sky and said, "Divine Venerable, we have three suns here, plus the reflection of the sky clouds and stars, so our days are very long and our nights are very short. That's why we have high temperatures here all year round. ”
The three suns are not actually the main reason for the heat, because the three suns are far away from Sita Star, and the real reason is that the three suns are exposed for a long time, so that the heat cannot be dissipated, which is why it is so hot.
"But tonight will be relatively long, about twenty hours. ”
When the crescent moon was translating, it had automatically translated Dulu's timekeeping system into earth time.
"Lying down, twenty hours? The day and night of your Sita Star are too chaotic, right? ”
Du Lu shrugged: "No way, don't you know that the world of the Divine Venerable is also like this?" ”
Shangguan Yu shook his head: "No, in our time, there is only one sun and one moon, and the time of day and night is relatively average, both 12 hours." It's just that the time of day and night will vary depending on the assembly, but each day is an even 24-hour period. ”
"Ah, it must be a very perfect world, no wonder it's called the kingdom of the gods." Du Lu said with great envy.
"There's nothing to envy," Shangguan Yu said, "If I had a choice, then I'd rather live in Sita Star." ”
"And why?" Dulu asked in great surprise.
Shangguan Yu smiled and said: "Do you know that on our earth, oh no, the kingdom of God, there are tens of thousands of nuclear bombs, do you know what a nuclear bomb is?" ”
Dulu shook his head blankly, indicating that he didn't know,
Shangguan Yu said: "Every nuclear bomb can destroy a city, and these more than 10,000 nuclear bombs can destroy the entire planet dozens of times. ”
Dulu's frightened expression: "Oh my God, that's terrible too." ”
"Isn't it? So living on Earth is like living on a bomb that could explode at any moment, how frightening do you say? So, although you Sita Star is very backward, but it is very safe, isn't it? ”
Although Shangguan Yu said this, but now that he thinks about it, since he knows that with the Turbidity Star, it is not safe to live anywhere, and even this Sita Star is under the control of the Turbidity Star.
The camp is in the territory of the country of Africa, and it has been a long way to enter the country. The procession of sending off relatives, including the men of Mogise and the people of Rubis, left at the border, and the original team of about 10,000 people was now only about 1,000 people who greeted them.
The procession sent by the country of Africa will not be able to meet until tomorrow.
The welcoming procession of more than 1,000 people is equivalent to a marching procession, and Prince Dulu ordered to go and bury the pot to make rice.
After dinner, sleep and rest on the spot, and send sentries to stand guard in turn. Shangguan Yu's team was assigned a luxury tent, which could accommodate more than a dozen people to rest in it, so Shangguan Yu allocated this large tent to the eight girls in the team, and he and the flying camel Chen Zhiyan and the three men used blankets to rest on the ground outside.
When it was time to rest after eating, Shangguan Yu was going to lie on the blanket to rest with the two brothers, but he thought about Zhao Yi, so he quietly came to the tent, hesitating whether to go in and call her, but saw Zhao Yi and Alice open the curtain of the tent together, and happened to collide with him.
Alice burst out laughing and asked, "Brother Yu can't sleep, think about it?" ”
Shangguan Yu scratched his head and said, "I'm looking for her to have something to discuss." ”
Zhao still immediately understood and said, "Is it something related to my father?" ”
Zhao is still Zhao Jun's daughter, and Zhao Jun is the supreme commander of the Earth Federation, and everyone in the team knows about this, so Zhao still says this, and it will not arouse suspicion.
Shangguan Yu nodded yes again and again.
Alice had no choice but to pout and say, "Okay, you two go talk about important things, I'll go play with Xia Xiaomi." ”
