Kingdom of Troit.

It is located 400,000 kilometers southwest of the Celestial Star Empire, it is only a small kingdom, just an ordinary first-class civilization, the Troitte Kingdom has a unique landform and beautiful scenery, especially the rivers in the kingdom are very numerous, and it is known as the country of water.

In the Carter Fort in the Kingdom of Troit.

The whole city of Fort Carter is almost suspended in the sky blue crystal, because he is located in the blue diamond known as Gordon Lake, the city is full of rivers, the city is not big, only hundreds of thousands of people, although not as prosperous as many large empires, but also leisurely, the buildings in the city are all white huts with spires and red mushroom chimneys, as if quiet, beautiful fairy tale world.

In the river channel inside Fort Carter, the lake from outside is brought in and criss-crosses the city.

There are no large streets in the city, and the city is full of arched bridges that connect some important buildings, and the boats drifting on the rivers have become the means of transportation for the Carterburgers to move around the city.

At this time, in the bow of a small boat in the inner river of Fort Carter, a man and a woman sat on the bow.

The man had long black hair, and wore a simple white robe, although he looked a little cold and delicate, but compared with his female companion, he was undoubtedly much inferior, and the woman was also a simple, unadorned blue dress, with bright red hair, but with a face that was suffocatingly beautiful, so that the boatman in the bow, a young man from Fort Carter, was almost a little daunted, and almost hit the oncoming boat several times.

"Here, it's so beautiful!" the long-haired woman looked happily at the white hut with a red fuzzy chimney around, and the lake below was almost transparent blue, she sat on the bow of the boat, simply took off her shoes and put the fair-skinned, flawless jade feet in the lake, as the boat swam away, gently playing, a group of small fish with light blue were attracted by the jade feet to follow, and kept pecking gently, making the red-haired stunning woman make a light and sweet "clucking" sound.

The black-haired man stood next to the red-haired woman, with a hint of tenderness on his cold face, looked at the woman who was smiling contentedly and happily, and said, "If you like, we can buy a house here, and after living here for a while, we can also come back if we are free." ”

"Really. The red-haired woman looked up in surprise, looking at the black-haired man, there was affection and attachment in her eyes, she wanted to agree immediately, but she always couldn't help but think of more, hesitating: "Will this take up too much of your time Xiao, you have been with me for so long......"

"Why do you say that, Avril, this time has been my most relaxed day. The black-haired man smiled, he was Xiao Chen's first step in his relationship with Avril Lavigne, he did not continue to carry out the travel plan, but stayed in the Star Empire to date Avril often, the location of the date is not limited to the Star Empire, all large and small empires, kingdoms, any place with beautiful scenery suitable for lovers to travel, will become the place where their footprints arrive Love, for Xiao Chen, it is a fresh and unique experience, no worse than the taste of breaking through in cultivation, and even, a little fascinating.

Xiao Chen turned his head and said to the boatman at the bow of the boat, "Cavill, do you know where there are houses for sale in the city?"

"Ah, sir......" The young boatman who was a little distracted was asked by the black-haired man, and he quickly withdrew his gaze from the red-haired woman, and his nervous mouth was a little knotted: "I...... We...... Fort Carter is...... Earl Carter's private fiefdom, ...... Houses are not allowed to be bought and sold privately throughout the city, so if you need a house, you must ...... You have to go and apply to Earl Carter. ”

"I still need to apply...... Xiao Chen asked, "Then where is Earl Carter?"

"The Earl is an important minister of the kingdom, the close people around the king, usually in the royal capital, but at the end of each month, the Earl will return to Fort Carter to live for a few days to deal with the affairs of the city, after all, Fort Carter is the pearl of the whole kingdom, even the king has to come to live for two months every year, and the Lord Earl also regards Fort Carter as his most precious private property, so the houses in the city are strictly forbidden to be bought and sold privately, and violators will be hanged by the earl. Cavill said.

...,

"Such a beautiful and dreamy city, this Earl knows how to appreciate it, and treasures it in his pocket. Avril said.

"Isn't it?" said Cavill proudly, "Our ancestors all worked for the Earl's family, so we have the right of abode in Fort Carter, and once a noble gentleman of the kingdom wanted to buy my house for 100,000 gold coins, but I did not agree. ”

Avril smiled.

One hundred thousand gold coins is indeed a lot of money for an ordinary person in a small kingdom of the first level.

"So, the Earl Carter is no longer in the city, and if he wants to buy a house, he must wait until the end of the month. Xiao Chen said.

"Yes. Cavill Road.

"Then let's wait for the Earl to come back, there are not many days until the end of the moon, you like it here, we just happen to be here for a few more days, anyway, everything is on track now, with Auburn and Durin, Ally can already be on his own, and you can be more relaxed. Xiao Chen and Avril said.

"Well, I listen to you, Xiao. Avril took Xiao Chen's hand.

Xiao Chen and Avril stay at the Moon Hotel in Fort Carter.

For them, this kind of small kingdom is their favorite place to stay, because in such a small kingdom, no one will know them, although they are famous in their respective empires, and even Xiao Chen is a well-known figure in the entire continent.

But between civilizations, each has its own hierarchy and its own circle.

It's as if the Tegel Empire, Nikola, and Moqing the Great, these empires and figures of the Eastern Continent hegemon, are also unattainable things and things for Xiao Chen, who was once in the fourth-level empire, and he has never even heard of them.

A first-level civilization is basically another world.

At least, Xiao Chen and Avril live here, and they have never heard anyone in the kingdom talk about the movements of the major empires, what super powerhouses, the conflict between the sixth-level empires, and Xiao Chen, the king of the younger generation of the mainland...... Ordinary people have never heard of it at all.

In the tavern and in the neighborhood, the most talked about is the movements in their small kingdom, what counts and nobles have an affair with a certain noble lady and the duel and other huābian news, or what a certain noble child genius can actually go to the fourth level civilization to study, or the dispute between their small country and the nearby small country, will there be a war......

For Xiao Chen and Avril now, it is like a paradise completely isolated from their previous lives and the world.

They can let go of all their defensive baggage, identity, and enjoy the quiet world of two people in this beautiful fairytale town, living the life of ordinary people.

Here, they are not the most talented young kings in the continent, they are not the deputy leaders of the Star Alliance, they are the most ordinary young people, boyfriends and girlfriends, enjoying the sweet taste of love.

Therefore, they will go through so many prosperous empires, but only choose to buy a house and stop in such a small first-class civilization.

Because of this, they can restore their most authentic selves, enjoy the most peaceful life, and let their souls rest in a harbor.

The Moon Hotel is a small hotel in Fort Carter, the environment is extremely quiet, the most important thing is that there is a tavern downstairs here, selling cheap but good wine, Xiao Chen every day, in addition to taking a boat out of the city with Avril, going to Gordon Lake to fish, sightseeing scenery, in the evening, he will bring a large bucket of fresh silver bass in Gordon Lake back, let the owner of the tavern burn it, and drink and eat fish with the wine in the tavern.

The owner of the tavern is a bearded fifty or sixty-year-old talkative old man, called Aemon, the old man Aemon is said to have been an adventurer when he was young, worked as a guard for the Carter family, and is a three-star swordsman, this strength, in Xiao Chen's opinion, is of course not worth mentioning, but in Carter Castle, and even in the Trouth Kingdom, it cannot be regarded as an ordinary person, a three-star swordsman, in a first-class kingdom, already has a certain status.

...,

The wine at the Moon Hotel was good, and with the talkative old man Aemon, who liked to boast about the adventures of his youth, it was able to gather a large audience of drinkers, and the inn was lively in the evening. And with Aemon's strength, there are no thugs who dare to make trouble in his tavern, but many travelers and drinkers like to come here, and business is very good.

On the first day that Xiao Chen and Avril lived in, because of Avril's beauty, it caused a sensation, and many gangsters saw that they were outsiders and wanted to take advantage of them, so they were all kicked out by Aemon.

Xiao Chen carried a bucket of silver bass in the evening and walked into the hotel with Avril.

There was an immediate cheer.

"Our angler 'Shaw' is back, along with his beautiful little sweetheart. ”

Aemon came over happily and took the big bucket of silver perch in Xiao Chen's hand, and when he saw it, the big mouth full of missing teeth cracked, and his eyes widened: "There is a golden perch today, Xiao, I really doubt that you have a fishing rod made by a god......"

"Golden bass!"

"What! There was a golden perch caught. ”

The large group of drinkers who had been sitting in their seats flocked to see that in a large wooden barrel, there were more than a dozen tumbling and jumping fat and tender silver fish, and among them was the largest one, with golden scales all over its body, and a few long whiskers on the side of its mouth.

"It's really a golden bass, oh my God, it's incredible, Xiao, how did you do that. ”

"Silver perch is already difficult to catch, and you can even catch golden perch, which is known as the king of fish, which is not easy for the king to taste. ”

"Xiao, I'll pay fifty gold coins to buy it......"

"Damn, Capote, you're really shameless, this is a golden perch, do you think Xiao is a foreigner who doesn't understand the market? I'm willing to give a hundred gold coins. ”

"I'll give you a hundred and twenty gold coins. ”

"I'll give you a hundred and fifty gold coins. ”

There was a commotion in the tavern, and Xiao Chen protected Avril from being bumped into by these excited drinkers.

"I said, give me silence. Aemon's loud voice shook the tavern, and his thick arms lifted the large group of drinkers away, stood next to Xiao Chen, and his eyes swept over everyone: "What's the noise, you rough people, don't you see our beautiful Miss Avril present?"

"Uncle Aemon, thank you. "If Avril hadn't been protected by Xiao Chen, she would indeed have been squeezed by this group of drinkers, although these rude drinkers, although they didn't dare to do anything, but if they found an opportunity, there would be no shortage of groping pig hands.

Although Aemon is over fifty years old, he still feels his heart beating faster when he is thanked by Avril Lavril so gently, and he only feels that the most beautiful woman he has ever seen in his life is less than ten of the woman in front of him, and he smiled: "These rabbit cubs are not honest, Xiao, are you going to sell this golden perch? If you sell it, I will pay three hundred gold coins to collect it." ”

As soon as the three hundred gold coins came out, the other drinkers all flinched, although the golden perch was good, but three hundred gold coins, eating a fish, it was indeed not something they could afford, of course, they believed that Emon could make a lot of money by buying it and reselling it to those noble lords, but Emmon spoke up, with his prestige, no one would fight with him.

"Uncle Eamon, I won't sell the fish, the rest will be the same, the rest of the silver bass will be given to you, and the drinks will be free. Xiao Chen smiled faintly.

"Okay, but you have to wait, this golden bass is very tough, and it will take at least an hour to cook well. Aeon also saw that Xiao Chen didn't look like a person who was short of money, so he just asked casually.

"Silver perch, keep me one, old Imon. ”

"Leave me one too! ”

The people in the hotel saw that the golden sea bass had no chance, and the remaining silver sea bass was also a rare delicacy, so they naturally scrambled for it......

Staying in the Moon Hotel, Xiao Chen will go out fishing every day, silver sea bass is the most famous delicacy in Lake Gordon, but it is known for being difficult to fish, that is, some old anglers, can catch a silver sea bass for a long time to be happy, Xiao Chen has a bumper harvest again and again.

...,

Except for the first day, he caught other fish with him, and later tasted the delicious taste of silver perch, but he didn't want any other fish, as long as he had silver perch, he could catch a large bucket every day.

Eamons saw Xiao Chen's powerful fishing skills.

took it back to the Moon Hotel, Xiao Chen couldn't eat so much, so everything else was given to Aemon, and Aemon gave him free room fees and all-you-can-drink drinks.

An hour later.

A large pot of delicious golden sea bass was finally served on Xiao Chen and Avril's table, and the large copper pot was still heated with charcoal, and the milky white soup was tumbling in the pot.

"Xiao, the fish comes up, just eat it in this charcoal pot, the golden perch has tough flesh and very few spines, even if it rolls for an hour, it will not melt, but will become more and more flavorful, ensuring that you eat it crookedly." Aemon said proudly.

"Well, then you're welcome, Uncle Aemon. ”

Xiao Chen scooped a piece of fish meat, tasted it, and suddenly the meat was delicious, making his internal organs squirm, his eyes were bright, and he also scooped the fish into Avril's bowl with the fish soup, and exclaimed: "This is really good, try it." ”

Avril also tasted a piece, her eyes lit up, and she was amazed: "Even if we are in the empire, we can't eat such a delicacy." ”

This may be an exaggeration, the empire is an empire after all, the land is vast, and there are many delicious things that can be compared to the golden sea bass, but it depends on who you eat with, with Xiao Chen, even if it is the simplest porridge and side dish, Avril will feel that it is the most beautiful taste in the world.

The two men were fishing and drinking.

Avril's alcohol consumption is not weak, and she can also accompany Xiao Chen to drink a lot.

In the hall of the hotel, after a while, a pot of hot silver perch was also served, the drinkers, the diners cheered, the silver perch was difficult to buy even if it was paid, in the Moon Hotel, because of the arrival of Xiao Chen, it actually made the store, almost every night there are more than ten silver perch, which can be on the wheel of almost every table, and it has also become a feast for gluttons.

"Let us honor our great angler, Shaw. A drinker stood up and shouted and raised his glass.

"Haha, Angler Shaw, long live. ”

The drinkers cheered, Xiao Chen raised his glass, and signaled to this group of excited drinkers, the atmosphere in the tavern was warm, as if a grand banquet was being held.

Everyone lit the fire, ate delicious fatty fish, drank hot wine, and the drinkers were talking nonsense, rowing wine orders, talking about their own experiences, the old man Aemon's voice was always the loudest, and he began to brag about his extraordinary adventure career again, this time it seemed to be talking about going deep into a forbidden forest with the adventurer team, and encountering a first-order demonic beast black-striped leopard......

Xiao Chen and Avril Lavril were full of food and drink, holding hands and walking to a protruding pontoon bridge outside the small door of the hall, they stood on the edge of the pontoon bridge, Xiao Chen wrapped around Avril's waist from behind, at this time, the night was dark, the lights of thousands of houses in Fort Carter were lit, and the firelight was reflected on the sparkling river, as if there were two cities above and below the water, the hotel hall was still noisy, and the boasting of old Eamong and the drinkers was still echoing in the night.

Avril was lying in Xiao Chen's arms, the wind in Fort Carter at night was blowing, a little chilly, but leaning on Xiao Chen's arms, it was unusually warm, like a stove, and the powerful heartbeat behind her seemed to reach her chest cavity and beat together with her heart.

Avril closed her eyes comfortably and muttered, "It's like a dream, and if it's a dream, I'd rather never wake up." ”

Xiao Chen's chin rubbed Avril's soft and soft long hair, the fragrance of Avril's hair was between his noses, his black and deep eyes stared at the night, and his voice was deep and gentle: "How is this a dream, even if it is a dream, I will make the dream come true." ”

Avril raised her head, her eyes were also bright in the dark night, one of her hands reached up, pressed against Xiao Chen's cheek, rubbed the rough scum, and her voice had a hint of greasy: "Sometimes I really wonder if you lied to me, how can a man who has never been in love say such touching love words." ”

...,

Xiao Chen himself was a little stunned.

There are some words that he would never say before, but now he naturally blurts out, is this the love that can change people.

"Poof!" Avril pinched Xiao Chen's nose and said coquettishly: "Fool, I'm joking with you, the more you talk about love like this, the better, I love to listen to death." ”

Xiao Chen was dumbfounded, he really couldn't guess the woman's thoughts.

"To-morrow, the Earl Carter is supposed to return to the city, and we will go to him and buy a cottage in the city, so that we can live in it. Xiao Chen said, he still likes to be quiet, not to mention, he will still practice at night, although the liveliness of the hotel is good, but it is not suitable for a long stay.

"Yes. Avril mumbled lowly, her heart beating hard.

In the hotel, after all, it is only a hotel, Avril and Xiao Chen still sleep in separate rooms, she has her own reserve, and Xiao Chen will not take the initiative in this regard, but her own cabin is different.

Avril dreams of having a private cottage with Xiao Chen, no matter how big the Xingchen Alliance's property is, no matter how luxurious the house is, no matter how extravagant it is, it is impossible to give her a sense of home, but with Xiao Chen, even if it is a simple cottage, it also makes her feel happy, and here, no one knows them, Auburn, Du Lin, all the people they know, enemies, friends, they don't know here, just like the private world between her and Xiao Chen, the private realm shared by the two of them, has their own little happiness and little warmth.

As the night wore on, the hotel was quiet.

Xiao Chen and Avril returned to the hotel together, Xiao Chen and Avril entered a large suite, Avril entered her room, Xiao Chen also returned to the room, and saw that Avril's breathing sound gradually became even, Xiao Chen activated the magic circle in the room to prevent someone from breaking in, and then he jumped out of the window, like a phantom, shuttling through the sky, and it didn't take long to reach a height of more than 100,000 meters, and suddenly the elemental layer rioted, Xiao Chen still continued to rise, until he reached 187,000 kilometers, he felt that he had reached the critical point, all his strength hole cards were displayed, and he began to cultivate in this riotous elemental layer......

Although being with Avril Avril has greatly shortened his cultivation time, and he almost no longer cultivates during the day, Xiao Chen will not forget how many terrible enemies he still has, and the huge crisis hidden under this happiness and sweetness, so at night, he will continue to cultivate penance.

Now the altitude he could reach had increased by two thousand meters, to 187,000 meters......

PS: (It is very difficult to write about Xiao Chen's love, and the choice of Avril is even more controversial, I once thought about letting Xiao Chen fight and kill, and has always maintained coldness, without any seven emotions and six desires, as if an ascetic who abandons all mortal emotions, until he sets foot on the peak, but that kind of star abuse, I always feel that something is missing, I don't want Xiao Chen to be immutable, the life of the previous life was almost a little sad, without the slightest change, even if this life steps on the peak of the supreme, life may not be complete.) So I took the risk to write about Xiao Chen's love, although the pen is stiff, it may not be able to achieve the expected effect, but I will try my best to write, as for why I chose Avril, I think, if there is no proactive woman, I am afraid it will be difficult to break Xiao Chen's heart defense, in this regard, Winona, Zihuang, and even Xue Wei Xuerui are not very suitable, they are either relatively cold and not active, or they are still young, or even a sister in general, but Avril, such a hot personality, a proactive woman, it is easier to break the ice that Xiao Chen wrapped in his heart, in terms of feelings, Xiao Chen is indeed more like a "sufferer" Can you expect the current Xiao Chen to take the initiative to pursue a woman? Anyway, I don't expect it, I can only let the woman "push back" him! Avril is not popular enough, and there are not many descriptions in the early stage, and it is normal for some people to be difficult to accept, but this can be changed with the progress of the article and the increase in the number of scenes). (To be continued.)
