Chapter 301: From Africa
The wine lady who delivered the wine was a young woman who wore bright lipstick, and the lipstick at the corners of her lips had been spent. Burgundy curls were scattered and scattered, interspersed with broken rubber bands. She wears the uniform apron of a restaurant waitress from ten years ago, only the skirt is shorter.
She held a wooden barrel to pour beer for the high submersible, her hands trembling so hard that the amber liquid flowed all the way to the ground.
She hurriedly lifted her apron to wipe the wine stains, and Gao Qian accidentally saw dried blood on the honey-colored skin below.
"Are you alright?" Gao Qian raised his hand to take the barrel of the wine girl and put it on the side of the table, "Let it be here." ”
He took out a colored coin worth ten magic crystals from his pocket and placed it on the table: "The rest is yours." ”

She hurriedly lifted her apron to wipe the wine stains, and Gao Qian accidentally saw dried blood stains on the honey-colored skin below, like a sinuous snake.
"Are you alright?" Gao Qian raised his hand to take the barrel of the wine girl and put it on the side of the table, "Just leave it away." ”
Gao Qian took out a colored coin worth ten magic crystals from his pocket and placed it on the table: "The rest is yours." ”
Not long after walking, the weather became hot, as if it had been brought from cold to tropical all at once, and the high diver had to throw away a lot of fur warmth. And when passing through the town, he exchanged gems for magic crystal coins, and bought some clothes suitable for the season for Jiajia and himself.
He no longer always walks in the wilderness, but tries to rest in the town as much as possible, as he finds Jiajia more interested in human towns. She liked to take a bath, and although this service was very expensive in a hotel, he still tried to satisfy Jiajia's hobby. A little girl should be beautiful and fragrant, shouldn't she?
At night, when Jiajia wears comfortable pajamas and falls asleep sweetly on the bed, he will quietly get up and look at the stars in the east. He was missing his lover, his friend, his teacher...... My heart hurts when I think about it. But he can't go back yet.
Passing through the Far North, they pass through a neutral zone before reaching the Midland.
It is called neutral because it has not yet been declared by any of the gods. The reason why it was not declared was not because the gods had forgotten about it or were too humble, but because it was really unsuitable for human life.
The neutral zone is full of swamps, volcanoes, poisonous water, abysses, monsters and monsters. It is known as the Land of Oblivion, also known as the Devil's Eye. However, this is the intersection of four continental regions, the Far North, the Middle Continent, the Southern Continent, and the Northern Continent. The only place that does not border the neutral zone is the Eastern Continent, where the great powers of the East are located.
The geographical knowledge of the seven continents and four oceans that Gao Qian memorized when he was a child has long been inapplicable. Today, there is only one continent, and the rest is the ocean.
And this neutral zone is an area pushed out by the collision of the continental plates due to the movement of the continental plates. It is the only transportation artery that can connect four continents, allowing humans to cross terrifying primeval forests, frighteningly steep mountains, or unfathomable lakes.
It is also the only path that is safe for humans. Because here, as long as you have the money, you can hire a heavily armed guard escort. Except for the gods and the Great Demon God, this kind of escort can basically deal with all monsters.
Therefore, despite the sinister nature of the Neutral Zone, which has been viciously cursed by passing merchants, in the face of the fact that planes cannot go to the skies, the risky merchants and ordinary travelers who have to go out are still willing to choose to reach their destination through this place of death.
At this moment, the place where the high dives rest is a hotel located in a transportation hub. The name of the inn is very regional, called Chaos Hotel.
The hotel's architecture reflects that it is at the crossroads of four continents, with European-style arched windows, American-style vulgar signs, and a rudimentary interior like that of Africa.
This is also reflected in the parking lot in front of it, and the livestock trough is also fully reflected. Horses, cows, donkeys, sled dogs, and mild-mannered monsters were all separated and encircled.
However, the silver forest horse is not in the parking lot, but is tied downstairs in its own building, and can be seen from the window.
Here, if you want to be unruly, you only need to do one thing, pay enough magic crystals.
At this moment, Gao Qian was sitting at the rough wooden table, quietly drinking a glass of sour beer in front of the candlelight on the table.
They had been here for two days, and a fat fur merchant strongly invited him to come along. The Fur Merchant was waiting for a team of guards that had already been contacted, and the heavy sword that the High Diver had brought with him to scare the Fur Thief was presumably used by the Merchant as another free guard.
But it was nothing, and the merchant's carriage looked comfortable. And the high potential does need to find out some news. Merchants from the north to the south are the right sources.
Then
Downstairs came the neighing of horses on his silver horse.
Gao Qian put down his beer glass and walked to the window to look down.
In the stone-paved alleyway, illuminated only by a burning torch, he saw his silver forest horse. Silver Horse was gouging his hooves, snorting at a corner of the alleyway.
Gao Qian squinted coldly, and a tall, thin figure wrapped in a cloak slowly walked into the torched Hokage, he stared at the forest horse for a long time, and suddenly looked up at Gao Qian.
Gao Qian saw a chocolate-colored dark face, with black lines painted on the face, and the person's pupils were large, like a beast that had been accidentally encountered in the field at night, cold, naked, and emotionless.
The man glanced at it, then lowered his head and entered the door of the hotel.
Gao Qian slowly left the window, he glanced at Jiajia who was sleeping soundly on the bed, picked up the heavy sword, opened the door and walked out.
It's late at night, but the liquor shop in the lobby of the hotel is still bustling.
Traders, bandits, wanted criminals, mercenaries, and troubled travelers from all over the world gather here. They exchanged messages, talked about women, bragged and bet, punched and drank, and passed the time.
There's not much fun left in this day and age. However, in this small hotel, you can find almost everything. You'll find almost everything.
