Chapter 116: The Scenery All the Way
The road is rugged and winds through the Black Forest-covered mountains, and there are not many horse-drawn carriages coming and going, and they usually come and go in large groups. So the carriage that Zhou Zhongmou was driving was more eye-catching, but now there are many thieves in the Black Forest, but there are only a few of these thieves in the Transylvanian Empire, and they are mainly working in the territory of the Southern Yuktobania Kingdom. Zhou Zhongmou's striking figure was enough to intimidate a small group of thieves, and the Black Forest in this section of the country simply could not support the survival of a large-scale group of thieves. So it was a safe journey, nothing special happened.
After walking for more than ten days, Zhou Zhongmou finally saw the river between the mountains again, which was the obvious dividing line, the natural border between Transylvania and Belken. On the bridge and even on the road across the river, there were many wagons and travelers, waiting for the Belken Imperial Border Garrison on the other side of the river to let them go. Zhou Zhongmou also drove the carriage to the back of the team, he looked at the black forest behind him, and at this time the sun was gradually setting, this guy's mouth unconsciously hummed: "The sun in the west is about to set, and the end of the devil is coming" is really feeling. "I'm finally back to what I was going to do, and the memory of the Earth has begun to fade," the guy thought about the topic as he hummed the sun in the west.
Of course, Misha interrupted his reverie, "What are you singing? Is it the old language of your homeland? This woman was completely rude, and poked Zhou Zhongmou's waist with her fingers and asked him to translate it to her. "Oh, this is a song about how a country steps into destruction" Zhou Zhongmou was full of nonsense, and insisted on explaining the end of the devil as two kingdoms that were about to perish. It's like the setting sun, and they can't avoid their fate after all.
Of course, Misha also learned the song. It's just that the lyrics translated by Zhou Zhongmou are sung in the southern Yuktobanian language of this world, and I always feel very hairy
The bonfire burned. Travelers who did not make it during the night gathered around to chat and eat, merchants took the opportunity to go about their business, of course some jugglers began to perform, and troubadours began to sing Sharjah with their musical instruments, and for a moment the place became a sea of joy. People who are running around for life will not miss any happy time that can relax themselves, and when they are about to embark on a journey after dawn, it is better to take advantage of the beautiful night to relax. The aroma of food and wine mingled with singing and music that filled the place, and even the soldiers stationed on the other side of the river looked at the bonfire on the other side with happy expressions. Although they had seen this kind of joy many times, they still felt happy.
Zhou Zhongmou's attention was obviously attracted by the dancing women in the field, some of them were wandering warblers doing business along the way, some were dancers in the juggling group, and some were travelers, of course, his attention was soon interrupted by Misha, who began to get jealous. Zhou Zhongmou laughed and carried Misha, who was writhing in his arms, into the carriage, and it didn't take long for the body to start shaking rhythmically
The next day they crossed the river, and after registering the names and paying the fee, the carriage went along the road of the Belken Empire. This time, Misha climbed to Zhou Zhongmou's side and listened to him introduce the scenery along the way. "It's about two days to go down this road. We were close to the sea. At that time, we will have mountains on our right hand and the sea on our left. The view will be spectacular. I can't describe it here, but you can see for yourself when the time comes. ”
Sure enough, two days later, Misha saw a magnificent view, the road became only two carriages wide, and one side turned into a stone cliff plunging directly into the sea, and the waves crashed against the rocky shore, and the sound of the surging waves was like a rumbling drum that never ceases. Looking down, the shoreline is covered with snow-white waves piled up on the rocks like snow-capped mountains, but the more striking view is in the open sea, where the huge cyan dorsal fin makes a white trail on the surface, and the bulge proves the formidable creatures beneath the water.
"That's why the sea kings, the reason why humans can't go to the open sea. You're seeing huge sharks. If you're lucky, you might be able to see it jump out of the water, and it's a spectacular sight. Zhou Zhongmou looked at the shark in the distance with a smile, and said to Misha, who was already pale. "Don't worry, Misha. The shark couldn't get close at this distance, the water was too shallow for it to come in. So let's enjoy it to the fullest. You must know that there are still many people from all over the world who come to this land to see sea kings on this road. Now Zhou Zhongmou tried not to think about the XinZemlya Island he was going to and what to do when he arrived on the island, but just immersed himself wholeheartedly in this concubine relationship.
There are still many towns of the Belken Empire along the main road, although the Belken Empire, which relies on the deep sea, did not build many ports and navies due to the sea kings, but there are still brave merchants who control the ships with a relatively shallow draft, and sail along the coast to do business at the risk of being smashed by the waves on the rocky coast. There are also some towns with very good locations with small wharves that allow daring fishermen to fish inshore in small boats – and these fishermen earn a good income because of the odd things they can live in. Although they are afraid to go close to the deep sea, there are also good catches in the offshore waters - the only ones to worry about are some crustaceans and turtles, which are capable of both offshore and beach activities. At the very least, Zhou Zhongmou has seen the back shell of a sea crab on the coast that is larger than a house, and some people use this crab shell as the wall and roof of the house.
Misha had never seen such a sight before, so the long journey was spent in Misha's amazement and cheers. Now Misha doesn't have any special feelings about the official victory proclamation of the Belkenian Empire in the town, although at the beginning she would be happy that Belken had captured another piece of Transylvanian Empire territory, and she would be a little sad about the further weakening of the Southern Yuktobanian Kingdom announced in the proclamation, but now she is used to it. Even the other day, the Belkenian Empire officially celebrated the fall of the Transylvanian Empire with great fanfare and national parades, but rather was happy to get free food and drink, which the Imperial Government paid for.
