Chapter 71: The Role of Tianhua Cards (II)
() Being harassed by the three major empires all year round, the Orlan Empire has focused most of its energy on war, and a large amount of resources produced by the empire have also been used here, making the Oran Empire itself develop slowly, not to mention that it cannot be compared with a powerful country like Huarong, even the Ice Moon Empire is much stronger than it. Therefore, the degree of wealth and poverty in Orlan is distinguished by geography, the closer to the direction of the Eight Ice Empires, the more prosperous, and the closer to Huarong and Qilu, the more barren the south of the two countries. Oran City is located in the middle of the empire, and its conditions are inferior to that of Ulan City, but it covers a much larger area.
"What's going on, what's delicious, you can take me there!" Garamandis is not a dragon who likes to wait.
"Okay, eat, eat to death. I still have a dozen gold coins from the wanderer, enough for you to eat a few meals. Let's go and find a restaurant. The two of them walked out of the corner, and after Nian Bing identified the direction, he led Garamandis towards the center of Oran City, where there was always a place to eat.
The closer you get to the center of Oran, the number of beggars is gradually decreasing, and there are many shops around, although the scale is not large, but it is somewhat prosperous.
After walking a short distance, the preface finally saw a restaurant, not waiting for Nian Bing to say the people, Garamandis had already walked over quickly, the restaurant looked ordinary from the outside, and the six people did not even have a person in charge of reception, the two entered the restaurant, it was almost noon at this time, and the guests in the restaurant sat down about seventy percent, Nian Bing pulled Garamandis to sit down at a table near the window, Garamandis has always been the most interested in human restaurants, look east, look west, especially look at the food on the other table, it almost flowed out of his ambergris.
"What do you want to eat?" a waiter walked over and asked politely.
Nian Bing and Garamandis look about the same age on the surface, although they have different temperaments, they both have handsome appearances, and Garamandis exudes a looming domineering. And because of Nian Bing's cultivation of magic, although he is dressed ordinarily, he exudes the aura of high school on his body.
Garamandis said unceremoniously: "If there is anything delicious, it will be served for ten people." ”
"Ten servings?" the waiter looked at him with some surprise.
Garamandis said impatiently: "If you let you get on, you can get on, hurry up, are you afraid that we won't have any money to give?"
The waiter nodded. Hurried to go.
Nian Bing said in a low voice: "Great Galamandis, when you wait for you to eat, it will be a little Sven." He knew a lot about Garamandis's food, and before coming here, they had eaten in a small town restaurant, and Garamandis's almost crazy eating appearance scared many people.
"Sven, what's the matter? "Garamandis won't buy Nian Bing's tent.
Nian Bing was helpless, he told everyone the truth that he didn't know the big stomach king in front of him, but life seems to be more important, bear it, only endure it. He didn't say anything more, and turned his attention to the side, just then. The guests at the nearest table were talking about something, and their voices were so loud that they could be heard clearly from Nian Bing.
"Have you heard? Grand Duke Blue Feather has already returned. ”
"Grand Duke Blue Feather is back? Foreword, don't you need him to defend it? Without him to lead the legion, what if Huarong and Qilu attack again?"
Hearing these two words, Nian Bing couldn't help but cheer up, wasn't the destination of Luo Rou letting herself get into trouble was the Duke of Blue Feather's Mansion?
"Of course, there is no need for defense, it is said that this time, with the mediation of the Ice Moon Empire, it has always been resolved. Both the Huarong Empire and the Qilu Empire promised not to invade our country within three years, of course, our Oran also paid a lot of price, Huarong and Qilu are simply a tiger and a wolf. I don't know how much of my country's resources have been robbed this time. ”
"Hey, I knew that the final result would be like this, either the land was ceded or the compensation was paid, and our Orlan was almost finished. ”
"Shhh, it's not good for you to be quiet, let the officers and soldiers hear it. Hey, now our Orlan Empire is not supported by the Duke of Blue Feather, if it weren't for the Silver Feather Knights led by him to fight desperately, I'm afraid that Huarong and Qilu's people would have already fought over, and they couldn't get mixed up here, if it didn't work, let's move there collectively, that side is close to the Ice Moon Empire, and the Ice Moon Empire will never watch our Oran be destroyed. If the Huarong Empire were stronger, I am afraid that the situation on the entire continent would change.
"I can't say that, I don't think the Ice Moon Empire has any good intentions,-, they just need to invite the ice and snow goddess sacrifice to help, how dare the Huarong Empire be so arrogant. If there are too few strong magicians in our Orlan Empire, they will be bullied by the price increase, and the two empires of Huarong and Qilu have already occupied so much land, and they are still constantly expanding, it is really a wolf's ambition! Actually, if our Orlan is ruled by the Duke of Blue Feather, maybe it will be able to change the current situation? Unfortunately, the Grand Duke of Blue Feather is too loyal to the royal family, which is almost impossible. ”
"Don't talk about that, politics has nothing to do with us civilians, drink, drink. ”
The conversation stopped for a while, and the guests at the table continued to eat and drink, and from their words, it was not difficult to hear the status of this Duke of Blue Feather in the Orlan Empire, Nian Bing said secretly in his heart. Luo Rou, Luo Rou, you still count on the daughter of the Duke of Blue Feather to help you, and now the Orlan Empire has no time to take care of itself. Forget it, no matter what, you don't have to do what you promised to do, and sending the letter over is also considered to have completed the mission. However, listening to the meaning of these people just now, this Duke of Blue Feather is the head of the entire Silver Feather Knights, wasn't Aunt Yu Ruyan protected by the Silver Feather Knights in the first place? Perhaps, this duke still knows Aunt Yu Ruyan, if only he could meet Aunt Yu through him. After so many years, I don't know how my aunt is now.
As soon as he thought of Yu Ruyan's kind smile, Nian Bing's heart unconsciously warmed, and at that moment, he stood up and walked to the side of the table of guests, and said to one of them in a white robe, "This big brother, can I trouble you?"
The man in white was drinking wine, and when he heard Nian Bing's voice, he couldn't help but look up, Nian Bing's handsome appearance was easy to give people a good impression, coupled with his sincere and polite tone, the man in white said: "Little brother, what do you want to ask? Listen to your accent, it should be from other places." ”
Nian Bing nodded and said, "I'm from the Ice Moon Empire. Excuse me, how to get to Duke Blue Feather's mansion?
The man in white was obviously taken aback, and looked Nian Bing up and down a few times. Said: "You want to find the Grand Duke of Blue Feather, little brother." I think you want to join the army, then you should go to the military department, Grand Duke Blue Feather is not something that anyone has seen. ”
Nian Bing pretended to be reverent and said, "Grand Duke Blue Feather has always been my idol and the person I respect the most. I just want to know where his mansion is, and maybe I'll wait outside his door and I'll be able to meet him when he comes out. ”
When the man in white heard Nian Bing say this, his face suddenly looked much better, nodded approvingly, and said, "Not bad." Grand Duke Blue Feather can be said to be the protector of our Orlan Empire! Without him, the Oran Empire can't even maintain its current appearance, there are many thoughtful young people like you now, but whether you can see the Grand Duke or not depends on your luck. The Duke's palace is located in the south of the city, in the city of Oran. In addition to the Imperial Palace, the mansion of the Grand Duke of Blue Feather occupies the most extensive area, and you can find it anywhere in the south of the city. ”
Nian Bing smiled: "Thank you for your advice." After saying that, he returned to his place.
"Nian Bing, the kid didn't bring me to this Oran City to take me to eat good food. Garamandis's disgruntled voice rang out.
Nian Bing smiled and said, "Of course it is, why not?" However, I have some personal matters by the way, and a friend asked me to send a letter. You can rest assured that you won't lose too much time. ”
"That's fine, but remember, you have my magic imprint. It's impossible to run. Garamandis's pupils suddenly turned red, and he looked at Nian Bing with deep meaning, as if to say, boy, I will eat you in the future.
Nian Bing shook his head helplessly, and said in a low voice: "It's my honor to be with the great Galamandis, why should I run? After eating, let's find a place to stay, I'll deliver the letter in the afternoon, if you think it's not good here, we'll go to the Huarong Empire tomorrow. The Huarong Empire is the most powerful empire on the mainland of Yangon, and it is also the most prosperous empire, and there are naturally delicious things there. ”
An hour later. Nian Bing walked out of the hotel with Garamandis with a bitter face.
"Bah, bah, bah, what kind of bullshit restaurant, the things made are unpalatable, Nian Bing! Garamandis was extremely dissatisfied with the food at the restaurant.
"Boss, you stepped up your scolding, you didn't eat less just now, and the food was the most expensive dish, we only have two gold coins left, it is estimated that it is enough to live in the hotel, it seems that I really have to find a job to support you." ”
Garamandis said as a matter of course: "Although it is difficult to eat, I also have to eat well, you are willing to find a job casually, as long as there is something to eat, it doesn't matter to me where to stay." ”
Hearing him say this, Nian Bing was not angry and happy, lowered his head, and a light that Garamandis could not detect flashed in his eyes, and the two words kept wandering in Nian Bing's mind.
Although Garamandis has high requirements for food, he has no special hobby for living, as long as he finds a bed to sleep, and sleeping when he is full has always been his favorite thing to do. The two found the cheapest inn and settled down, Garamandis slept, and Nian Bing used one of his two gold coins to buy the cheapest ten white scrolls in a magic shop.
Selling scrolls, I'm afraid it's the fastest way to make money, like Garamandis, I'm afraid few people can raise it,
The progress of the same origin of ice and fire has greatly improved Nian Bing's attainments in the magic array, although the success rate of making the white scroll into a magic scroll is smaller, but he only made some ordinary fourth-order scrolls, plus the trigger effect, it is not a difficult thing. This Acne Oran City is really poor, now sell a few for some money, just enough to spend.
It only took Nian Bing an hour to make a few scrolls, except for one that failed because of carelessness, to successfully make nine fourth-order trigger scrolls, Mandis's dragon snoring is really not small, Nian Bing glanced at him, quietly slipped out of the room, and walked towards the southern city of Oran City according to the news he heard.
There's no hurry to sell scrolls, let's get the letter delivered first. As the man in white in the hotel said, it is not difficult to find the mansion of the Duke of Blue Feather in Oran City, after Nian Bing walked to the south of the city, he only asked one person and found his destination. Across the two streets, he has seen the red courtyard wall as high as two zhang, the Blue Feather Grand Duke's Mansion covers a huge area, the vermilion courtyard wall up to two zhang high is like a city wall, at the gate, sixteen silver feather knights wearing silver light armor stand neatly in two rows, the feathers on their helmets are all cyan, one by one the knights with swords, although they do not squint, but Nian Bing can clearly feel that they are always observing everything around them, once there is any wind and grass, these silver feather knights can make the fastest response.
Sixteen low-level Silver Feather Knights are sixteen swordsman-level martial artists!Who said that the strength of the Orlan Empire is weak, just the Silver Feather Knights of these 10,000 people, I'm afraid only the Flame Lion Knights of the Huarong Empire can compare, no wonder those civilians will say that the Duke of Blue Feather is the protector of the Orlan Empire, and the Silver Feather Knights can definitely be compared with the ordinary army of 200,000!
Inside the Grand Duke's Palace.
A handsome middle-aged man about forty years old sat behind the secretary's bookcase with frowns, as if he was thinking about something annoying, although this person was sitting, but inadvertently exuded a strong flexible and murderous aura, his eyes were constantly flashing, the black robe on his body could not hide his majestic body at all, his hands on the bookcase were very distinctive, the palms were broad, the fingers were slender, although the joints were not prominent, but only from the appearance can be seen, it was definitely a pair of very powerful hands.
Outside the door, a man walked in, and a soft and beautiful voice sounded, "I'm back." What did Your Majesty say today?"
The middle-aged man looked up, and there was a woman who came in, looking like she was twenty-seven or eight years old, wearing a light blue long skirt, with beautiful patterns embroidered with silver thread on the skirt, willow eyebrows and nose, skin like clotted fat, a long dark green hair scattered behind her back like a waterfall, bound by a silver ring, blue eyes were crystal clear, and her beautiful face showed a little concern and some worry. If Nian Bing saw her, she might not immediately recognize that she was the Yuruyan who gave her the Tianhua card at the beginning, and eight years have passed, but her appearance has not changed in the slightest.
