Chapter 42: Finally Arriving in the Night
The bumps for several days made Lin Xiao feel a little tired, and Mu Yurou looked at the scenery outside the carriage listlessly all day long. Therefore, when she opened the curtain and saw the towering city wall of Dark Night Town, Mu Yurou quickly got out of the carriage and ran towards the city wall with a cheer.
"Young master, this city wall is so high!"
Mu Yurou looked up at the walls of Dark Night Town, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.
"It's really high!"
Lin Xiao also nodded in agreement.
When he just got out of the car, Lin Xiao couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the hundreds of meters high city wall of Dark Night Town.
In Lin Xiao's opinion, Night Town is also a border town, even if it becomes relatively prosperous because of many adventurers, this city wall will not be so atmospheric, this can be compared to the height of the wall of Seven Star City!
"Hehe, isn't it strange why Nighttown has such high walls?"
Ye Wuxian also walked up slowly.
"I started a little bit, but now I figured it out. ”
Lin Xiao looked at Ye Wuxian and smiled slightly.
"Oh, tell me about it...... I don't believe you can analyze everything!"
Ye Wuxian deliberately quipped.
"There should be three points in total!"
"Which three?"
Ye Wuxian narrowed his eyes.
"Natural disasters, **, Warcraft. ”
After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he looked at Ye Wuxian with a smile on his face.
"Hahaha...... Second brother, second brother, your mind really makes me ashamed of being a big brother!"
"Young master, what are you talking about natural disasters ** demonic beasts, why don't I understand?"
Mu Yurou heard the conversation between Lin Xiao and Ye Wuxian, and asked a little puzzled.
"Natural disasters refer to sandstorms. ”
Before Lin Xiao could speak, Ye Wuxian spoke.
"Sandstorm? What's that?"
"It's a storm in the desert!"
"What is a desert?"
......
Ye Wuxian opened his mouth wide and spoke.
Mu Yurou looked at Ye Wuxian's appearance and pursed her mouth disdainfully.
"It's the first day of the Wind and Thunder Empire, and I can't say it clearly...... Young master, you tell me. ”
"Hahaha......"
Seeing Ye Wuxian eating deflated, Lin Xiao also burst into laughter, and even Shen Dong'er, who was not far away, pursed her lips and chuckled.
Ye Wuxian's face was full of depression.
Can this Nima blame me, I don't even know the desert, where do I know how to explain it!
However, Ye Wuxian was curious about Mu Yurou, although Ye Wuxian hadn't talked to Mu Yurou much along the way, it could be seen from her words and deeds that she seemed to know nothing about some of the most basic things. It's no wonder that Ye Wuxian is curious!
"The desert, like the forest, is a special environment. It's due to the lack of trees......"
It took Lin Xiao a lot of effort to explain to Mu Yurou what deserts and sandstorms are.
"Since Nighttown is desert on both sides of the city, the first purpose of this wall is to protect it from sandstorms. ”
Seeing Mu Yurou's sudden realization, Lin Xiao also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that there will be some teaching in the future!
"What about **?"
Mu Yurou thought of what Lin Xiao said again, tilted her head and asked.
"** is ......"
"I'll come, I'll come...... I'll do this!"
As soon as Lin Xiao spoke, Ye Wuxian took over the conversation again, as if he wanted to regain the face he had just now.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Ye Wuxian cleared his throat, sorted out the wording in his heart by the way, and then looked at Mu Yurou with a smile on his face and said: "There are deserts on the east and west sides of Dark Night Town, but the desert that passes through the west is the territory of the Yellow Sand Empire! The reason for the name is that the canyon is flanked by unreachable cliffs, and the only way to reach the center of the Wind and Thunder Empire is to cross the Zhenbei Gorge. Therefore, it is a natural dangerous place, and the name Zhenbei means that it is equivalent to guarding the north of the Wind and Thunder Empire! In this way, the Dark Night Town has also become the first military town in the north of the Wind and Thunder Empire! If the army of the Yellow Sand Empire occupies the Dark Night Town, it is equivalent to holding the throat of the north of the Wind and Thunder Empire, so the second major function of the wall of this Dark Night Town is to prevent the invasion of the Yellow Sand Empire. Got it?"
After Ye Wuxian finished speaking, he looked at Mu Yurou with some smugness.
This time the explanation is clear enough!
"Young Master, let's talk about it!"
Mu Yurou's confused expression made Ye Wuxian hesitate.
Nima? Is that not clear?
Even Shen Dong'er on the side looked at Mu Yurou strangely.
Could it be that this girl is deliberately angry?
It's no wonder that Shen Dong'er and Ye Wuxian couldn't understand that for Mu Yurou, who lived in Butterfly Valley all the year round, they didn't even know what war was!
Lin Xiao shook his head.
"Actually, Brother Ye has already made it very clear just now, before I tell you a word, you will understand!"
In desperation, Lin Xiao once again explained to Mu Yurou what war is and why there is war, and Mu Yurou nodded thoughtfully.
"Then I should know what Warcraft means!"
This time, without waiting for Lin Xiao to explain, Mu Yurou spoke.
"Tell me about it!"
Lin Xiao looked at Mu Yurou with interest.
"I just heard what the young master said, there are a lot of demonic beasts in that forest in the south, since even people will start a war because of the temptation of interests, let alone demonic beasts without wisdom! The third function of this city wall should be to prevent those demonic beasts from harming humans!"
"Clever!"
Lin Xiao looked at Mu Yurou and nodded appreciatively.
The strange thing is that this time Mu Yurou was not happy because of Lin Xiao's appreciation, but lowered her head a little depressedly.
"What's wrong, Yurou?"
Lin Xiao asked with some confusion.
"Nothing..."
Mu Yurou looked up at Lin Xiao.
"I was just thinking...... When I was in Butterfly Valley, I hated the cliffs around me that kept me in that little world. But after I came out, I found that the people outside were really strange, they could live freely, but they built a cliff to lock themselves up. What's the difference between this outside world and Butterfly Valley? It's just a bigger Jedi!"
Mu Yurou's words made everyone stunned on the spot.
"The outside world is nothing but a bigger Jedi ......"
Lin Xiao couldn't help but muttered to herself.
Seeing that Lin Xiao, Ye Wuxian and the others were stunned, Mu Yurou said with some fear: "Young Master...... Isn't it Yurou...... Missaid the wrong thing again?"
Lin Xiao shook her head slowly.
"No, Yurou, you're right! The outside world is indeed a bigger Jedi!"
Lin Xiao touched Mu Yurou's little head a little dotingly.
"But Yurou, you have to remember that as long as the heart is free, as long as the heart is not blocked by these walls, the outside world is a truly free world! Just like for Yurou, as long as you maintain this innocence and kindness, you will be truly free and truly happy, understand?"
Lin Xiao's words made Mu Yurou a little incomprehensible, but she still nodded vigorously.
"I can't imagine that I, Ye Wuxian, have lived for more than twenty years, but I haven't had a little girl who doesn't know the world to see it thoroughly, and in vain I am still called the first day of the Wind and Thunder Empire...... What a joke!hahaha......"
As if stimulated by Mu Yurou, Ye Wuxian couldn't help but raise his head and laugh.
After a long while, Ye Wuxian stopped and turned his head to look at Mu Yurou.
"Sister Yurou, from today onwards, you are my own sister Ye Wuxian! If anyone dares to hurt you, even if I chase him to the ends of the earth, I Ye Wuxian will not let him go! You have to remember what the second brother said, maintain this innocence and kindness, and don't be polluted by those worldly fame and fortune!"
Through Mu Yurou's words, Ye Wuxian vaguely knew that Mu Yurou was from a Jedi, and then he understood why Mu Yurou had those strange behaviors before. For Mu Yurou's kindness, Ye Wuxian appreciated it from the bottom of his heart, so he made this promise.
"With the young master here, no one will hurt me!...... I still want to thank you, Brother Ye!"
A sound from Brother Ye suddenly made Ye Wuxian feel comfortable all over his body.
"Hahaha...... Yes, yes, yes, no one will hurt you with your young master, you can just marry your young master!"
Looking at Mu Yurou's cute appearance, Ye Wuxian couldn't help but joke.
"Bad guys...... You're such a bad person...... I won't call you Brother Ye anymore!"
One sentence made Mu Yurou's face flush, and she stomped her feet and ran back to the carriage.
"Hahaha......"
Ye Wuxian couldn't help but burst into laughter again.
Lin Xiao rolled her eyes helplessly.
"Let's go to Nighttown!"
Shen Dong'er had been listening to the conversation between the three of them on the side, and when she saw the sky gradually getting dark, she finally couldn't help but remind.
Lin Xiao and Ye Wuxian also nodded slightly when they heard this.
"Lin Shaoxia, you and Yurou ......"
"Miss Dong'er, don't call me Lin Shaoxia one by one, it makes me quite awkward! It seems that I should be a little older than you, if you don't mind, I'll call you Dong'er, you can just call me Brother Lin Xiao! Not to mention that maybe I will change my name to call you sister-in-law in the future, such a bite of Lin Shaoxia will make a difference!"
Lin Xiao is not the one who suffers, he was just teased by Ye Wuxian, and now he is just going back.
The corners of Ye Wuxian's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he secretly glared at Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao's words made Shen Dong'er's face suddenly become like a red apple. However, she is a child of a big family, although she is shy, she didn't run away immediately like Mu Yurou.
"Well, then Brother Lin and Yurou will live in our Tenglong Chamber of Commerce when they arrive in Dark Night Town! In this way, we can thank Brother Lin for rescuing them on the road, and we can also take care of each other. ”
Shen Dong'er's words made Lin Xiao secretly laugh.
Lin Xiao knew that Shen Dong'er invited her to live in the Tenglong Chamber of Commerce, and the most important thing was probably because of Mu Yurou's words that day! However, Lin Xiao originally planned to treat Shen Dong'er's physical problems after settling down, so it would be more convenient to live in the Tenglong Chamber of Commerce.
"Then excuse me!"
Shen Dong'er's face was overjoyed, and she smiled at Lin Xiao and Ye Wuxian before returning to her carriage.
"Second brother, Dong'er's matter will trouble you!"
When Shen Dong'er got into the carriage, Ye Wuxian whispered to Lin Xiao.
"Big brother is so polite to me again, I'm going to be angry!"
"Hahaha...... Okay, I'm not going to be polite to you in the future!Let's go, let's go and see what this legendary Dark Town of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon looks like!"
Ye Wuxian walked freely, put his arm around Lin Xiao's shoulders and walked towards the city gate together.
Looking at the city gate not far away, Lin Xiao's heart was also excited.
Dark Night Forest, I'm Lin Xiao here!
