Chapter 24: Graham
The rebels in Bark Village didn't even have time for breakfast, so they were busy dividing into three teams, and there was an uproar in the small square. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Xian Ruola noticed the noise outside the house, and she didn't sleep much all night, so she came to the window to observe the situation outside.
Bang, the door was kicked open, and Cesena walked in with a dress.
The snow-white dress has a long hem, complicated and heavy, multi-layered lining, layered with layers of texture, Cesena shook the collar at Xianruola, overlapping wearing methods, high-flying upturned neckline, the color is plain white, but there is gorgeous, because of her short stature, half of the clothes are dragged to the ground.
Sesena held her dress and spun around, the heavy skirt fluttering, looking like a child shaking the quilt, she giggled and said, "Your Royal Highness is familiar with this dress." ”
The moment Cesena appeared with this dress, Xian Ruola recognized it, this was her sacrificial dress, stared at the long sleeves fluttering up for a while, there were indeed fine seams, and it was very dazzling on the smooth and clean outer garment like snow, it was the one she wore yesterday, and looked at the weather outside the window: "The time is about the same, do you want me to sacrifice today?"
"Of course. ”
"You don't want to ask me if I'd like to?"
Cesena threw the sacrificial garment onto the bed: "Just leave the Crystal Princess in the Sealed Land, do I need to ask you?"
"Aren't you afraid I'll kill myself?"
"Aren't you afraid that we will kill hostages?"
Xian Ruola frowned, she was really worried that the rebels would threaten her with hostages: "Cesena, we can meet any conditions for you except Crystal Mountain, so you won't think about it anymore?"
Cesena pursed her lips and smiled, revealing a mature and seductive charm that matched her small appearance, flicked her hair and turned around and walked out: "Hurry up and change into sacrificial clothes, it's a pity that I'm not tall, I really want to try on such beautiful clothes." ”
Seeing that Cesena was about to walk out, a flash of inspiration flashed in Xianruola's mind, and she hurriedly said: "I'll cooperate with you! Release the hostages, release my mother, Queen Carrelian!"
"Hehe, are you still qualified to put forward conditions?"
Xian Ruola bit her beautiful lip and bit out a row of white marks: "Aren't you afraid that I will make trouble in the Sealed Land and release the Sealing Beast?
"Oh, where is the less!" said Cesena, but the man stopped at the door.
Xian Ruola breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that she had stabilized her: "How can outsiders know about the seals and spirit prayer spells of our Karelian royal family. ”
Cesena tilted her head and stared at Zenora, trying to tell from her expression if she was lying.
Xian Ruola thought to herself: I am indeed lying, but as the brain of the Silver Sword Jue Bird Regiment has been adventuring all the way for so many years, how can I survive without a dim sum machine.
The expression on his face remained unchanged, and he told the last decisive lie to completely deceive Cesena:
"If there is no secret method, according to what you said, when my sister was thrown in the sealed place, it should have been my business, how could it happen that the current sealing point is active again?"
Cesena paused slightly, and thought to herself: Crystal Mountain is my only purpose, it doesn't matter if Karelian, Baikoma, hostages or whatever, getting a crystal mountain that can be mined safely and stably is the most important thing.
His heart was already shaken, but his mouth was still not relaxed: "The Baikoma monarch said that your sister's bloodline is not pure, so the seal failed, and he was against this matter in the first place. ”
The snow-haired girl sighed secretly in her heart and whispered, "How did things come to this......"
Fairy knew that the monarch of the Baikoma rebels she spoke of was Glanhan, the man she had always called her brother-in-law, almost brother-in-law...... More than a year ago, the incident swept through the entire Baikoma County in a short period of time, occupied the city of Baikoma, proclaimed itself as the monarch and demanded independence, and it was in the limelight for a while, and the whole country was shaken, and other countries and even heroic countries were shocked, and there was a faint tendency to succeed.
Later, under the repeated attacks of his father, Marshal Lemore and General Hudwes, nearly 100 battles of all sizes, each with its own victory and defeat, and finally in the Battle of the Roots and Sprouts, Lemore defeated the main force of the rebels with 30,000 people 85,000, killed and captured more than 50,000 rebels, and the enemy who retreated with Graham was only 3,000 horsemen, and his own casualties were only 8,000, which was a great victory, and was rumored to be the Carrelian god of war for a while.
The rout and the troops of other directions retreated to the city of Baikoma as the whole line of Granham shrank, and Lemore could not storm the city after replenishing his troops, because there were nearly 50,000 rebels gathered in the city, and there were only 40,000 on his side, so he could only besiege and wait for next year's increase in troops before attacking the city.
Xian Ruola thought about the whole situation in her mind, knowing that it was only a matter of time before Brother Graham was finished now, except for the conspiracy, and in this context, no unexpected situation was allowed, even if it was a possible accident. He should know that he is not a vase waiting to die......
Thinking of this, Xian Ruola stopped talking, she already had a plan in her heart, she just smiled faintly, walked to the side of the bed and picked up her sacrificial clothes.
As a mercenary magician of the rebels, Cesena was of course very clear about the current situation of the rebels, and shook her hair: "Do you want to release the hostages? ”
Shut the door and leave.
Sighing, Xian Ruola put down her clothes and pulled the curtains, that's all she could do now.
It is precisely because the all-out war with the rebels has only lasted half a year, and now all the rebels are compressed in the city of Baikoma, so that the people in the rest of the kingdom feel that the enemy is far away, the war is gone, and there are more pedestrians on all the roads, and even the rest of Baikoma County has returned to normal and commerce is prosperous.
Even the city of Murimu, which is located at the junction of the county system, is very prosperous, and there is no trace of war in it, even if the curfew was only issued last night and the militia was hired to hire citizens, it did not affect the market trade.
Yu Youzi walked slowly from side to side, and saw a stall selling wine and juice. When someone threw him five yellow-green coins, he jumped into the car and put a wooden round cup with a long handle into the juice bucket and took out a cup and put it into the container brought by the customer.
While pretending, he shouted loudly: "Come and taste it! Come and taste it! It's absolutely strong! Five cups!"
There are also a bunch of shops selling all kinds of drinks next to it, not to mention there are twenty stalls, shouting different names of wine and juice, the cheapest of which is the most expensive one.
Yu Youzi took out the money bag and looked at it, the iron coin with a little black should be equivalent to the silver coin on the earth, the yellow-green coin should be called a copper coin, and the gold coin is called Lever on the size of a nail shell, but I don't know what their direct conversion ratio is.
At this time, a guy with a small wooden head appeared in Yu Youzi's field of vision, he looked at a wine stall, claiming to buy a barrel of gray wine for a tavern, and several stall owners hurriedly shouted to him to go over and look at their own wine, they were selling gray wine.
Yu Youzi also curiously followed the guy into a wine stall, only to see the stall owner scoop out a glass of wine and hand it to the guy for him to see, and when he stepped forward, he saw that it was a transparent and slightly gray liquid, and the smell of wine wafting over Yu Youzi could smell it, it seems that the molecular structure of alcohol is the same no matter what the world is, and the product of bacterial decomposition has the same intoxicating effect on humanoid species.
On the other side, four round cups with handles were handed over, and it turned out that several other stall owners selling gray wine brought their own liquor to the big customers to see, and after a while, Yu Youzi was squeezed out.
Then there was a burst of bargaining, and the last stall owner with small profits won and hurriedly pulled his men to his own wine stall.
Yu Youzi followed him, watching him eleven cups, silently counting how many cups he scooped out and poured into his man's wine barrel. The guy also stared closely at the stall owner's cups with handles, each one of which was expected to overflow quickly before it counted. Finally, he filled the small wine barrel and began to settle the bill, Yu Youzi silently calculated the number of glasses and the total amount paid, and came up with the ratio of 25 times for 1 Caret.
"The young man wants wine?" After the stall owner greeted the guys, he saw that Yu Youzi had been following them, and thought that he also wanted to drink: "See if you are rich at a young age?"
Yu Youzi thought to himself: In the three worlds of non-linear time, it is difficult to have an accurate number of my age, although my body is a little taller than this short uncle, but my body does not look big, and it is in this new world where no one knows me that I will be regarded as a teenager.
Thinking in his heart, he said, "I have money, but I didn't bring a cup." ”
The stall owner's uncle laughed twice, thinking that the little black-haired guy in front of him was definitely a chick, he had just made a big deal, he was in a good mood, and wanted to play with this teenager to see if he would choke on this liquor for the first time. So he scooped out a glass of wine, took out a slightly larger cup from the car and poured it in, and handed it to Yu Youzi: "It usually takes 13 times, but count you 11 times!"
Yu Youzi also wanted to see the brewing technology of this world, after all, he already knew just now that he could taste the taste of alcohol, so he took the wine glass, took out 11 from the money bag and handed it over, and when he took a sip, the hot and spicy feeling spread in his mouth, and he couldn't help but sigh.
It's actually a distilled liquor, with a high degree, a jerky taste, and choking in the throat, which is not a good wine, but this degree is already worth half of Carré's price. I think it's a drink for ordinary people.
The wine stall uncle watched Yu Youzi drink the wine dry one by one, and he didn't show any ugliness, but his face was a little radiant, his face was red, and he looked much more energetic, and he couldn't help but praise in his heart: Good young man.
Yu Youzi returned the wine glass to the uncle, nodded, and continued to follow the crowd for a while to the end of this road, Yu Youzi didn't think about it and got into an adjacent road next to him, now he is full of food and drink, and needs to eat after eating.
Along the way, I saw that there were so many bottles and jars and bowls and plates that were all made of wood, and I wondered if there was no invention of ceramics in this world? But there is glass, and the houses here are all glass windows, and ceramics should be easier than glass manufacturing.
Thinking about it, my heart moved, it should be because this area has many forests, natural wood production is high, compared to ceramics in the price is more close to the people, simply put, wooden tableware is a specialty here. I didn't walk a few steps, and sure enough, I saw a few stalls selling ceramic bowls and jars, shouting Kexi pottery bowls for sale, and when I asked the price, sure enough, one pottery bowl topped five wooden bowls.
On this road, there are many sellers who have dried candies, and I spent five times to buy a few packs of small candy and taste it, and I can also eat the sweetness, and I walked there after a while.
Walking along the streets, I actually saw some stalls selling weapons and armor. A row of wooden shelves was propped up under the wooden shed, with swords and bows of various shapes and sizes hung, and a wooden plank four or five meters long was used as a table, on which were placed in leather clothes, cloth armor, and some iron. I asked about the price, and it was all in Liver.
Come to think of it, Carré is an iron currency, and the armor of these weapons is also made of iron, so the cost price of any weapon is at least the same weight of Carré and then add the forging fee. Yu Youzi didn't have an iron coin on his body, but he didn't know how many carrés he could exchange for one Lifer.
Walking into a weapons stall, there are four watchers selling in an area of wooden sheds six times the size of a covered meat stall. Yu Youzi picked up an iron sword casually, and weighed it, at least 1.5 kilograms, the surface was full of black dots and concaves, it should be that the iron used for forging was not good, and there were too many impurities such as carbon, it was an inferior sword, much worse than the rebel weapons he had robbed before.
"Or else, this broadsword can be sold cheaply for only eight liviers!" said the stall owner.
Yu Youzi thought about another thing, according to the concept mentioned in the book, he translated the metals of this world as iron and gold, but unfortunately he couldn't do chemical experiments to determine the ordinal number of the elements, but at present, according to the popularity of use, it can be basically determined that they are the iron and gold of this world, even if the atoms in this space-time structure are indescribable The atoms in the world are different from those on the earth, and there is no problem at all to think that they are "iron", "gold" and so on......
After waving his sword twice, he returned the goods to the stall owner, glanced at the armor stall opposite, and suddenly realized that the things he needed to buy most now were clothes and shoes. Thinking of this, he no longer followed the crowd, but found the gathering area of cloth and garment vendors.
