Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring

One peaceful day in Gothic City, the fisherman began his day's work by lifting the boat and letting it slip into the water. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Thank you to the great Elron for guarding us. ”

After finishing the prayer with his hands on his chest, he put the rope loop on the paddle and pressed forward, forcefully counteracting the resistance of the paddle in the water, and rowed out of the harbor in the soft sunlight.

Already surrounded by fishing boats, he decided to take the risk and get a little farther away. Paddled through the waters full of fishing boats, the fisherman suddenly felt that something was wrong, and although he had only been out a few times, he could be sure that he had never seen a stream here.

"The water all went to that stream...... Strange, when did there be an island here?"

But having an island means having a good thing, and if you find some rare beasts on the island, you will be rich.

Thinking so, the fisherman paddled into the stream. While rowing the boat, he observed the water in the creek, which was clear and transparent, and it was obviously a good environment for fish to live, but there were no fish here.

"It's weird. ”

He said a sentence and continued to paddle forward. He had been sailing along the stream for so long that he had forgotten when he had entered the island, but judging by the scorching sun overhead, it would not be too long.

He sat down, let the boat follow the stream, and lay down on the boat, he suddenly felt sleepy, so he decided to take a nap.

"I hope there are no terrible beasts on this island......"

After saying this, he closed his eyes and fell asleep. When he opened his eyes again, he was stunned by what he saw, he was in a peach blossom grove with peach trees growing on both sides of the stream, and he propped himself up on the bed, trying to make out the trees on either side.

"It's all peach trees...... What's going on...... Is it human-born, or is it naturally grow......n?"

On both sides of the stream, the wind swept the peach blossoms down, and the peach blossoms fluttered in the air and landed on the fresh grass, which made people feel happy just by looking at it.

"It's beautiful...... I don't know what happened, but the view is amazing. ”

The boat floated for a while, but the peach blossom forest still didn't come to an end. As he drifted farther and farther away, the look of appreciation on his face became much more complicated, and he looked behind him and then at the front of him.

"Am I lost in this peach blossom forest?"

Thinking about it, he rowed the boat again, and went on as fast as he could, and after a long time, when he was about to despair, he finally reached the end of the woods.

When he saw the boundary of the peach blossom forest that seemed to stretch infinitely, he finally put his heart at ease. The fisherman sat down on the boat, gasping for air.

"What is that...... Is it a mountain? Is this stream coming to an end?"

He looked up and saw a high mountain with a hole in it that shone faintly brightly.

"Could it be...... The Dragon's Treasure. ”

The fisherman moved his throat, found a peach tree by the brook, tied the boat, and headed for the hole in the mountain.

He carefully walked to the edge of the cave, there were no dragons or treasures, but fortunately there were no terrifying beasts inside.

"There is indeed light...... Why is there light in this mountain? Is there any artifact sealed in it, and I will be the next Elron!?"

The fisherman happily punched upwards and walked into the cave. At first, the cave was very narrow, but after he walked for a while, the cave, which had been getting darker and darker, suddenly became brighter.

He happily ran towards the light, only to find that on the floor of the cave, there was a fire burning in the cave. The fisherman thought it strange that the fire had no fuel, but the flames never ceased, and he crouched down to take a closer look.

"Strange...... Why is this fire burning...... should I touch it?"

The fisherman stretched out his hand slowly, but halfway through it, he suddenly thought, "No, this fire must be a little wonderful to burn in such a place, and if I touch it rashly, it may be burned all at once." ”

He took his hand back and walked up the cave again, and after a few steps he noticed another fire burning in front of him, as if to show him the way.

"It's good that I didn't touch it just now. ”

He touched his chest and comforted himself, walking along the flames, when suddenly he saw something strange again. No, he smelled the scent before he saw it.

"What kind of scent is this......?"

He sniffed the smell and walked all the way over, and found a paper bowl on the floor, and in the bowl there was still residual heat and steam noodle soup floating on it, and he leaned over.

"It smells so good...... What is this, I have never seen anything so delicious. ”

But thinking about it, with the experience of the previous car, he didn't dare to touch it, he put his hand on the noodle soup and felt the residual warmth.

"It's still hot...... Is there anyone up ahead?"

Thinking so, he cautiously followed. After walking for a long time, he didn't touch the person in front of him, and he even tried to shout a few words, but no one responded to him.

Just when he was about to give up, he suddenly found that the pattern of the cave had changed strangely, and the cave, which was originally a naturally formed, narrow and traceable cave, suddenly became a mess.

"What's going on...... how does it look like it's been blown up by an explosion. ”

The cave was littered with signs of forcible destruction by the east and west, and the fire of the guide was cut off, and he wandered aimlessly around the wreckage of the explosion.

"Strange...... I've been here for a long time, but why am I not hungry at all?"

He walked forward as he spoke, and then, at last, he saw the light. He ran as fast as he could towards the light source, and when he saw the exit, he stopped.

"One City......"

There is a city at the foot of the mountain, and this city is beautiful in architecture and full of traffic, and it looks extremely prosperous.

"Even the king's palace is not so spectacular......"

While sighing, he walked down the hill and walked to the gate of the city with excitement, and it was strange that there were no soldiers guarding the city.

"Strange ......"

With that, he walked into the city. And what caught his eye was the luxurious streets and the laid-back people, all with happy smiles on their faces.

The fisherman casually found an old man sitting on the grass basking in the sun and asked, "Uncle, where is this place?"

The uncle glanced at him and asked, "Are you new here?"

"Well, I accidentally got lost here. ”

"I see, this place is called Floating Night City, a city like a dream?"

"A city of dreams?"

The fisherman chewed on the sentence and asked, "Have you ever heard of Gothic City?"

"Gothic City...... Some impressions. ”

The old man squinted his eyes and thought about it, and then said: "I'm old, and I can't remember many things clearly, you can ask in the tavern or the church." ”

"Okay, thanks. ”

"The tavern just goes straight down here, and as for the church...... Go ask for yourself. ”

"Thanks, then I'll go, goodbye. ”

The fisherman waved his hand and walked along the main road. Along the way, he looked at the buildings on both sides and the people on the road, and gradually began to understand what a dream city was.

In the distance, he saw the tavern, and as he approached it, he heard a girl with a voice as melodious as a bird reprimanding someone.

"Robert, I've put up with you for a long time!

"Little Nightingale, don't be angry, when my friend returns, we'll pay the bill together. ”

"Heh, what together, you obviously eat white food!"

"What is this, we are good friends, it is not a matter of course. ”

"Good friend, I think he's scared of you, a good friend, how long has he been out since the last errand......"

"Seems like it's been almost two years......?"

"Maybe he's back a long time ago, but he just doesn't want to see you. ”

"Nonsense!"

The fisherman walked over and tiptoed to ask, "Well, hello, I just came here...... Excuse me, do you know Gothic City? I'm looking for my way back. ”

The man named Robert smiled and looked back, "That's a good question!

Robert told the history of the floating night city in detail, and he was very organized and gushing, and looking at his appearance, he must be familiar with this work.

Hearing Robert's words, the fisherman decides to stay in the floating night city for a few days to see if what Robert says is true.

"So, who do I need to report with if I'm going to live here?"

Robert thought for a moment, scratched his head, and said, "Who ......? There used to be such a person, but now there is no need." Wherever you want to live, just put your name on the door number. ”

The fisherman nodded, he had stayed here for seven days, had tasted the most delicious restaurants, experienced the most miraculous churches, heard the most beautiful songs, and had seen the most beautiful buildings.

Seven days later, the fisherman returned to the tavern, where Robert was still sitting and gulping down.

"Hello, I've decided to stay here. ”

"Right? I'll just say you're going to love it. ”

"Everybody who's seen this place won't want to leave. ”

"That might be the case. ”

"How?"

"I just know someone, and he can't wait to leave?"

"Why? Who is he?"

"Speaking of him, he is a strange man, he alone holds four swords, and he can be seen at a glance in the crowd. He can't drink, but he's always messing around in the tavern......"

The sun and moon of the floating night city are quietly circulating, and every visitor who strays in here will be gently received. Don't panic when you come here, find the tavern in the city, where you will be greeted by a beautiful waitress and a flamboyant old man. Here, you will drink the most beautiful wine and enjoy the most beautiful moon.

In the soft moonlight, the fisherman will never remember how he met the storm at sea and how he sank to the bottom.
