Chapter 0102: Night Sea
The Donglin Kingdom has a coastline, Mozhou, Miaozhou, Guozhou and Haizhou are all bordered by the sea, and the coastline of the Donglin Kingdom is also quite long.
It is true that Cheongju is adjacent to Goju and Haeju, but it is not close to the sea. Gray whispered that even swimming was learned in the waterhole of the dungeon world.
The sea was the first time he had seen it. As for the boat, it's the first time that the big girl got on the sedan chair.
When I saw the sea before, I was still full of emotion. Children born inland will be amazed when they see the sea for the first time.
When I actually got on the boat, I found that daring to look at the sea and taking a boat are completely different things!
It's better to just go up, at most the boat is swaying from side to side on the beach, which makes people a little uncomfortable.
After the official departure of the ship, Gray Qingyan soon knew that it was terrible, and he vomited so much that he couldn't wait to die.
Not to mention eating, even the bitter bile is about to vomit out. The whole person fell into a kind of groggy state, and he was going to die.
Fortunately, Lao Dao still has a little money, and he can live in the second-class cabin with Gray Qingyan, so he has booked a single room. There is Lao Tao to take care of it every day, and it is finally better.
Finally, after 3 days, Gray said that he couldn't bear it anymore, and took advantage of the opportunity of Lao Dao to sleep and desperately crawled back to his hometown continent, and it took 3 days to cheer up a little.
The thought of crossing back and still on the boat made the whole person tremble a little for a while.
But wouldn't it be even worse if he didn't show up for a long time, if the old man woke up and couldn't see anyone?
However, he also found that his family seemed to be able to effectively resist seasickness when cultivating his divine will, which was not a bad way out.
There was no way to dodge the gray light words, so he could only bite the bullet, and after cultivating the divine will, he secretly returned to the ship.
It didn't take long in the middle, and Lao Dao didn't find out that Gray Qingyan left in the middle of the night. What made Lao Dao even more surprising was that the next day, Gray Qingyan actually stopped getting seasick.
Even the physical condition of seasickness and vomiting to the point of dying a few days ago seems to have improved a lot overnight.
Of course, he didn't know that the reason why the current gray light words were no longer seasick was all because he could cultivate his divine will at any time and at any time in order to keep the spirit platform clear.
But in this way, the amount of Divine Consciousness brought from home is consumed too quickly, and the amount that can be guaranteed to consume one light in 3 days is now basically dissipated in less than a day and a half.
Gray Qingyan didn't have any other good ideas, so he could only return to his hometown frequently to cultivate his divine will, and accumulate enough to return to the ship of the copy world.
For more than ten days, he almost didn't toss him to death. When he arrived at Night Beach, Gray couldn't help but cheer.
Lao Dao saw his eyes full of tears, and thought that the apprentice had seen the prosperity of the night sea and couldn't believe it.
However, at this time, Night Beach does have the qualifications and confidence to see all the mountains.
Across East Asia, it is the premier metropolis. Even Edo Castle, which was contemporaneous in Toyo Fuso, was slightly inferior to Yekai.
Countless foreign foreigners come and go, live, travel and do business here, and it is called the paradise of adventurers in the Far East and the New York of the East.
Just from the architectural style, you can see that the style and mood of Yehai and other cities are very different.
When it comes to the combination of East and West, Night Sea is the perfect example. There are not only Chinese traditions here, but also countless foreign customs.
In particular, many architectural styles in Yehai do not belong to the Chinese heritage or Western style, but are created by many comprador wealthy businessmen. More specifically, there is a special flavor of the colony.
Along the way, Gray Qingyan is not a child who has never seen the world. From the steamer outside the Guan, he saw countless traditional towns, fields and villages.
After leaving the port by sea boat, I passed through several ports on the Bangzi Peninsula and witnessed many Fuso-style buildings and customs.
But the brilliance of the night sea is still beyond the limit of Gray Qingyan's imagination. After all, he was only born in Mangshan Town, which has more than 100 households, and the largest place he has ever been to is only Huanshan City.
The prosperity and dense population of the mountain city have made Ash speak lightly, and he dreams of moving there with his family.
But the Night Sea is even greater.
At this time, there are more than 3 million people living on the night beach, both Chinese and foreigners, and it is extraordinarily magnificent.
However, as soon as he got off the boat, he noticed that there were a surprising number of poor people and beggars and homeless people.
Lao Dao also looked at the group of beggars gathered around him with some sighs, and comforted the overwhelmed gray lightly: "It's okay, it's okay." They're not bad people, and we don't have to be afraid. “
Just because he took pity on the yellow-faced and thin-skinned child, he gave him a piece of bread, which attracted many beggars begging for food around.
If it weren't for the later rickshaw driver shouting loudly to disperse these people, Lao Dao and Gray would have been a little helpless.
With the address of the letter in hand, the rickshaw driver quickly promised to deliver them to the place quickly and well.
The first time he came into contact with rickshaws, he felt really fresh, and he was listening to Lao Dao chatting with rickshaw drivers all the way.
"This place is in the Public Concession! Tsk, this friend must be a rich man!"
The accent of the night sea people was different from what Gray Qingyan had heard outside the gate before, and he pronounced the words quickly and his tone was sharp. Many times I thought that the man was angry.
Later, I listened to it a lot, but I didn't feel awkward anymore. On the contrary, I think it sounds quite good, and there is a special different taste.
The rickshaw ran very quickly, but it still took nearly 2 hours to reach the address left on the letter.
"Is this it?"
Looking at the tall and gorgeous garden house in front of him, Gray looked at the master beside him with some unconfidence.
But Lao Dao is also here for the first time, and it is inevitable that he is a little uncertain: "Probably! The address left by Brother Ji Sun is here, and there should be no mistake." ”
The rickshaw has gone, and the streets are full of people, both foreigners and Chinese. Most of them were well-dressed decent people, and occasionally a few were plainly dressed and seemed to be servants as well.
The two were struggling, not knowing how to greet the bottom of the garden house, when they saw the iron fence door open and someone walked out.
Just looking at the clothes, Lao Dao concluded that this was a servant of the family, hurriedly stepped forward to block the way, and said with a sincere smile: "This sister-in-law walks slowly, please ask for something." ”
Lao Dao and Gray said lightly that although they can't talk about sleeping in the open on the road, there is nothing decent on the boat.
Especially at the beginning, Gray said that he was seasick, and he vomited all day long, and his clothes were naturally not clean and tidy, and there was a faint smell.
Suddenly, he stopped someone, and he was immediately frightened. If it weren't for the fact that Lao Dao was older, and Gray said lightly and looked quite simple, maybe the middle-aged woman would have shouted.
When he went out this time, Lao Dao also dressed up with Gray Qingyan, and bought new clothes to take on the road.
It's just that the clothes they wear at this time are still based on robes and coats, which are not at all like the style that is popular on the night beach.
The night beach is full of flowers, foreigners from various countries haunt the country, and the major compradors in China also follow the dress style of foreigners, which is seriously Westernized. Almost all in the night sea society are dominated by suits.
But in recent years, with the end of the Northern Expedition and the establishment of the Nationalist Government, the tunic has also become popular. All the progressives in China usually abandoned the old robes and riding coats in favor of the tunics.
Therefore, as long as others look at the clothes of Lao Dao and Gray and Whispering, they know that they must be dirt buns from other places.
The woman grew up on the night beach since she was a child, and although she was a servant woman, she looked down on the dirt buns from other places.
After being startled by the sudden appearance of the two, although he didn't scream, he was also embarrassed, and couldn't help but say a series of night sea slang to the two people.
She said it quickly and quickly, and the two of them were dizzy, so confused.
Fortunately, Lao Dao and Ash were patient, and they couldn't understand what she was saying, so they didn't continue to argue.
When the servant woman had finished spreading the fire, she didn't go too far, but took the note with some contempt of a superior person. After just one glance, I felt the green tendons on my eyelids beating.
That's a good address!
"Nong is looking for whom! Nong knows where this is!"
"We're here to find Brother Ji Sun, oh, by the way, his tuba is called Wei Quan, Wei Jisun! I should have moved from outside the customs in the early years, I don't know if I live here?"
Hearing that the person on the other side could really tell the name of the master's family, the servant woman inevitably dared not underestimate them.
Although the servant woman had only come here in recent years, she also knew that the head of the family had moved from outside the customs. Listening to the old Taoist accent and salutation, I began to guess in my heart.
Maybe it's someone from the old man's family, even if it's a country bun, it can't be too rude.
So the next moment, the servant woman had a big change of enthusiasm, even if she still had some disdain, but she couldn't find fault with it by the whole.
I can't say that I just turned around and greeted the porter, and rushed to report the name and origin to determine whether it was a serious relative or friend.
Lao Dao and Gray Qingyan were also let into the foyer, sat down to wait for tea and waited for news.
Lao Dao didn't think there was anything, but Gray said lightly that he was a little restless. Everything here was far beyond his vision.
The grandeur of the ideas I saw in Qingdahu's house couldn't even splash the waves of ideas at all. Compared with other people's here, it is simply a heaven and an underground.
It's just that the decorations and utensils in the foyer make Gray Qingyan secretly smack his tongue in his heart.
On the contrary, he was born rich and noble, just looking at the Western scenery, and he didn't pay too much attention to what was beside him.
The posture of the two naturally fell in the eyes of the porter. But even if the porter's vision has been exercised, he can't guess the identity of these two people.
This old and young style is very different, and it is really incomprehensible.
was about to say a good thing, when he heard a majestic voice outside: "But Brother Junshi is here?"
