Chapter 114: The Western Continent
In the face of the jelly's words, the owner of the Youlou House smiled bitterly and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the next second, his expression became extremely frightened: "Be careful of ......" Before he finished speaking, he spurted out a mouthful of black blood.
Xiao Ming and the others let go of the black blood, and watched this thing fall on the ground, and immediately black bubbles were churning, and the ground was corroded into a big pit. Looking at the owner of the Youlou again, he was already killed. The five of them were stunned, and then ran to see the owner of Chenlou, but they were also dead.
"Let's go. Don't come again!" Tifa sighed and said to the landlord's guards who were surrounding them.
One of the tallest men in the guards seemed to want to say something, but was about to speak, but was interrupted by Ilti: "You guys, do you want to die if you stay here? We're tired of killing, we need to rest!"
The guard's face changed three times, and finally he sighed, waved his hand, and dispersed with his companions, and in a few moments, the army in the distance began to move, heading towards the west.
"What the hell is going on? What does that guy want to say?" When the army of Jinyilou left, Ilti wrinkled his face, held his head and said depressedly: "We have been killing for a long time, but we have not received any news?
"It seems that things are not as simple as we thought!" Tifa patted Irty's little head: "Little fool, didn't you notice just now that the man did not speak the ancient language of the Orientals before he died, but the lingua franca?"
Ilti was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and then reacted. The last three words of the owner of the Youlou just now. The lingua franca of Unicom is used. The two languages are very similar though. But there is still a big difference in pronunciation. Ilti has a big temperament, and she didn't react after hearing it, but Tifa and the others understood.
"What's wrong with him speaking the lingua franca?" Irti was still confused as he was reminded by Tifa.
The other party spoke a lingua franca, which was obviously a hint. Think about the last word 'knot' at the end of him, what are you the beginning of?" Tifa said, seductively.
Irti thought about it for a while, then slapped her thigh and said suddenly, "Could it be ...... He's his sworn brother who tells us to be careful. Yes. He's threatening us that he's dead and that his sworn brotherhood will come to us for revenge?"
Originally, seeing Ilti's abrupt look, everyone thought that she had understood, but when she said such a thing, everyone couldn't laugh bitterly.
"Stupid, he's supposed to be an association. What a sworn brother. You haven't learned much of the old Oriental sayings, but you've learned a lot of broken problems!" Jelly scolded amusefully and angrily.
"Knots, associations, they also have power in the Ancient Stars?" Iorti was shocked.
"The three landlords here, all of their abilities are to restrain the masters. Especially the owner of the Chenlou Building, he almost came for the master's ability. And there are only two enemies who understand the capabilities of the master. One is Rodtang. One is association. Rodtang is now mixed up with the bugs, and there shouldn't be such a large human army under his command. Associations, on the other hand, can do it. Don't forget that the predecessor of the association was the scientific research group, and sixty percent of the first members of this scientific research group were Orientals. Therefore, the power of the association in the Star of the Ancient Domain may be greater than we imagined. Jelly analyzed.
"The waters of the Ancient Domain Star are deep. It is not enough to have a Rodtang, and now there is an association again. Coupled with the impetus behind the Xiao family and the Situ family. The planet is going to be in chaos!" Tifa sighed.
"So what do we do now?" asked Irty.
"Although the association sent a special person against Xiao Ming, it felt a bit anticlimactic. This is different from the usual style of association. If there is something wrong with them internally, there is a deeper conspiracy!" Tifa frowned and thought about it for a while: "It seems that our breakthrough point may be the killer who was marked by jelly!"
"That guy? He's a fast runner. Judging by the coordinates transmitted back by the tracker, this guy is already in the sea of a thousand waves. The target should be the Western Continent!" Jelly said.
There are only two continents in the ancient domain, east and west, separated by the famous Thousand Waves Sea.
Every day there are a thousand big waves churning the ocean. This is where the name Senbami comes from.
It is almost impossible to sail on the surface of the Thousand Wave Sea, let alone the ancient sailing ships, and even the photon train cannot run normally on the Thousand Wave Sea. The big waves on the sea of a thousand waves are not just as simple as water, what really kills is the electromagnetic storm in it, and even the mysterious space cracks in it.
Therefore, to cross the Senbo Sea, the only way to go is under the sea. A thousand meters below the sea, the Orientals erected an undersea passage. This is probably the most frequently used high-tech vehicle by the Orientals on the Ancient Planet. But even so, the train of this undersea passage is only one flight a day, and it appears at a fixed time, and if you miss the time, you will have to wait for the next day.
When Xiao Ming and the others came to the undersea station, they had already missed the only flight, so they had to wait at the undersea station. There were not many people in the whole station, and the jelly under boredom counted it, and there were more than a thousand people. This amount sounds like a lot, but for the entire Eastern Continent, it is pitiful.
But think about it, the entire Eastern Continent is larger than all the land area of Earth, the home planet of mankind, combined. Most of the Orientals living here still use the oldest animal vehicles. In this way, it would take at least three years to get from one end of the Eastern Continent to the other—and that's still a full speed rush.
Therefore, the Oriental people on the Star of the Ancient Domain have never left within the range of thousands of miles of their birthplace in their lives. For the Orientals living here, it is a tradition to be inseparable from their homeland. Only the rootless prodigal son would run around, which is a great misfortune in the Oriental tradition.
Therefore, except for those who live near the coast, the rest of the Orientals will hardly do anything to run from one continent to another.
The 1,000 people at this station are already a lot. The main thing is that in the past few days, the annual business alliance is being held on the Western Continent, which is a great attraction for businessmen. So the merchants who lived near the coast all wanted to run to the western continent. If this time is staggered, Xiao Ming and the others can see fifty people at the station, which is considered a lot.
There was no word all night, although Jelly used the countless miniature reconnaissance planes sent out to discover the team of the Xiao family, the Situ family, and the Ye family, but Xiao Ming and they did not plan to go to contact them. Let's not talk about whether these people who are running outside have enough authority to know Xiao Ming's identity and status, even if they do, Xiao Ming doesn't want to deal with the Xiao family and the Situ family for the time being.
On the contrary, the Ye family can get in touch, but they have to wait until they are separated from the other two.
Early the next morning, the photon train departed. Although the Senbo Sea is wide, it is only a two-hour journey for the photon train. Perhaps due to the habit of the Orientals, the photon train here is not divided into separate isolation rooms like the Eight Star Regions of the Outer Regions, but as a whole. If you have good eyesight, you can see the front of the car directly from the rear of the car.
Xiao Ming and the others deliberately chose a position far away from the three families and sat in the penultimate carriage, generally speaking, those who will sit here are not wealthy, because the more you go to the back carriage, the cheaper it is. However, Xiao Ming and the five are really not like poor people. The most fundamental reason is that these five people are all handsome men and beautiful women.
If that's all it takes, it's just an eye-catcher. It's just that the clothes of the five are too ornate - it's not the style that's gorgeous, it's the material. The five of them didn't have the clothes of the Ancient Domain Star, and they were all prepared for them by the old lady after they arrived at the Xiao family.
Just like the special gold coins given to Xiao Ming by the old lady, Xiao Ming's clothes and materials, which look extremely ordinary, are actually the top colors, not to mention ordinary people, even people from smaller families or sects may not be able to afford to wear them.
Those who can take the photon train are either businessmen, or they are quite alternative among the Orientals and like to run around. Which one is not a person with a vicious eye, and he can recognize the grade of clothing on the five people at a glance, so Xiao Ming and the five of them didn't figure it out until they got out of the car. Why did everyone look at them with strange eyes during the whole process, and obviously did not show any flaws.
It wasn't until a long time later that the five of them knew that the flaws were there, and they could only smile bitterly in the end. This is obviously the old lady's harmless pit for them, what else can they do?
The five of them came to the Western Continent safely, and after coming out of the undersea station, they followed the crowd into a carriage and walked for about half an hour, and they came to the first city they came into contact with in the Western Continent, Cape City.
Interestingly, the closest city to the submarine station in the Eastern Continent is called Tianya.
Haijiao City is said to be a city, but it is not as big as Xiaoxia City. However, it is extremely prosperous, mainly because there are many merchants who come and go between the two continents, and even the commercial atmosphere here is also very strong, and you can see and sell the special products of the two continents everywhere.
The two continents in the east and west are about the same in latitude, so the general climate is also similar, but because of the difference in soil quality and environment, the style of the two places is completely different.
Specifically, there are many mountains and lakes in the Eastern Continent, and the Oriental people living in the Eastern Continent are emotionally delicate, full of fantasy and poetry. However, the Orientals in the Eastern Continent are also good at keeping order, which can be seen from the fact that there are thousands of sects in the entire Ancient Domain Star, and only a quarter of the number is in the Eastern Continent, and seven of the top ten sects in the Ancient Domain Star are in the Eastern Continent. Orientals in the Eastern Continent prefer to hold together.
The western continent, on the other hand, is full of canyons, basins, and deserts. Everywhere you can see the boundless area, and there are too many places to look at the mountains and run dead horses. However, the sects in the Western Continent that concentrate three-quarters of the Ancient Domain Star are mostly small and medium-sized sects, and there are only three sects that carry the crown. The Oriental people of the Western Continent love freedom, have an unrestrained and bold personality, and of course, are relatively not very orderly. (To be continued......)
