Chapter 249: Hill Town [1840 Votes Plus Update]
After reading it, Ellie couldn't help but feel that Yuxi's strong love for Hao Meng was not reduced because of the temporary departure, but was much stronger than before.
Even Yu Xi can often correspond with Hao Meng because of her relationship at the Holy Spirit Women's College. Although it takes a long time to receive the letter due to the distance, at least a bridge has been built between the two people.
Somehow, Ellie suddenly envied Yuxi, although she was not by Hao Meng's side, but Hao Meng's heart was always thinking about her, and she was by Hao Meng's side, but Hao Meng almost didn't even look at her.
"I'll give it back to you when I'm done. Ellie handed over the letterhead.
Hao Meng took it happily and carefully put it on again, as if it were a treasure.
Seeing this scene, Ellie's heart became more and more jealous, she really wanted to replace Yu Xi, or say out out her good feelings for Hao Meng, but reason told her that it was impossible, between her and Hao Meng, she could only become a partner, a buddy, so she deliberately changed her habits with Hao Meng before, and deliberately grinned.
Speaking of which, Hao Meng was really careless, he didn't notice the change in Ellie at all, and kept looking at the address on the envelope happily, and he could communicate with Yu Xi according to this address in the future.
With Yuxi's encouragement, Hao Meng felt more energetic, and he threw up the whip vigorously to make the horse run more jubilantly, but at the same time, it also brought violent turmoil, so that Ellie almost didn't sit still.
"Hao Meng, slow down!" Ellie shouted as she tugged at the edge and handrails of the carriage with both hands.
Hao Meng realized this. I was a little too excited, and quickly stopped: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just want to finish the task quickly, and then go back to write a letter to Yuxi." ”
"Then you have to consider our feelings, it's so bumpy, everyone will not be able to stand it. Ellie complained a little, and she didn't know if she really complained about Hao Meng, or complained that Hao Meng's brain was too simple and didn't notice her mind at all.
Hao Meng apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, it's really my fault." I'm going to get up to speed smoothly. Eun Ellie-senpai. Why are you sitting here?"
Hearing this, Ellie was a little angry, and she couldn't help but cold her face and shouted: "I've been sitting next to you for a long time, and I've been talking to you for so long, haven't you noticed?"
"Huh?" Hao Meng was stunned. Think about it. It seems like that's really the case.
He couldn't help but pat his head. I was a little too excited just now, and I completely ignored the people around me.
After smiling apologetically, Hao Meng said, "Then let's hurry up." ”
Seeing Hao Meng's mind falling into Yuxi. Ellie had to let out a long sigh, maybe she and Hao Meng really had no fate.
"Drive!" Ellie also worked hard to shake up the whip, what she can do for Hao Meng now is to help Hao Meng improve her strength, so that she and Yu Xi can complete their dreams as soon as possible.
The carriage jolted violently again, choking Rudy Eribe and Xiaoxue inside the carriage, and Eribe couldn't help but poke his head out and shouted: "Sister, slow down, slow down, we can't take it anymore!"
Ellie said sharply, "You know what? Time is life, we don't have that much time to waste on the road! ”
As she spoke, Ellie kept flicking her whip, making the speed of the whole carriage increase again.
Hao Meng also looked at Ellie blankly, a little puzzled how Ellie, who was accusing him just now, suddenly seemed to be a different person, fortunately they rented a double horse, otherwise they would have galloped like this with a horse, and it wouldn't have overturned early?
"What are you looking at? Don't you want to complete the task sooner?" Ellie seemed to sense Hao Meng's gaze and turned her head.
Hao Mengleng paused, and then came back to his senses: "Senior sister, what you said is very right, time is life, let's speed up!"
Then Hao Meng and Ellie kept flicking their horsewhips together, making their speed go crazy. Except for the necessary rest at night, the day was basically spent in a carriage.
In this way, the original three-day journey turned out to be completed by them in two days.
Of course, the price is not light, Eribe, Rudy and Xiaoxue, but they are all dizzy, and they vomit one after another when they get out of the car, and it takes a long time to relieve themselves.
The next morning, they were already able to see the magnificent Abine Sea and the legendary tourist mecca of Hill in the distance.
Although it is late autumn, the temperature here is above 30 degrees Celsius all year round, and it is still hot.
Eribe, who had originally had some broken bones, finally regained a little spirit when they saw the blue sea: "Is it finally almost there? I really can't stand it!"
Hao Meng comforted: "Don't worry, it's fast, go down this official road, and we will be able to enter the range of Hill Town." However, with so many people, it is a question whether we can successfully find a vacant hotel. ”
"Let's go, let's go and see, if it really doesn't work, we can still set up a tent directly in the field. Ellie threw up her whip again, but this time it wasn't as crazy as before, after all, the closer you got to Hill Town, the more people flowed, and if you hit someone, it would be a huge nuisance.
Soon, they drove the carriage to the legendary tourist mecca of Hill Town, the whole town is quite large, almost the size of their forest city, but the rows of wooden houses, all built in an orderly manner, staggered and orderly, look relatively neat and clean.
"By the way, it seems that the pirates we want to exterminate are active in the Abine Sea, right? Why don't you come and attack this tourist mecca? Eribe asked, poking her head out.
Rudy flipped through some basic information that he had purchased from the Mercenary Guild in advance and said, "The pirates we want to exterminate are called the Green Pirates, there are about 100 people, and the logo is like this, you can take a look." However, the active pirate group in the Abine Sea is definitely not only this one, there are several larger ones, and this pirate group can only be average. ”
"But all the pirates seem to have a pact not to attack this town. Rudy looked up and said, "The rest is missing from the Mercenary Guild's information, but I've heard two rumors." ”
"Oh, what rumors?" Hao Meng immediately asked.
Rudy thought for a while and said, "One of the reasons why these pirates don't attack Hill Town is because Hill Town regularly pays protection fees to the Pirates, if the Pirates attack and drive everyone away, who will pay the protection fees?"
"This rumor is still relatively reliable. Ellie said, holding her chin.
"There is another rumor that this town of Hill was built by an earl, and legend has it that this count is so powerful that those pirates dare not provoke him, so that the town of Hill has been safe and sound. Rudy added, "But this rumor feels too absurd to be far less credible than the first one." ”
Eribe rubbed his empty stomach and shouted: "Okay, these materials or something, let's talk about it later, let's find a place to live first, and I have to eat a good meal, I have always eaten dry food for the past two days, and my mouth is about to fade out of the birds." ”
Hearing this, Hao Meng and the others couldn't help but smile, the little bird gnawed all the small dried fish that Eribe liked the most, and the harm to Eribe was very dissatisfied, so he could only gnaw dry food with them, can he not complain?
Xiaoxue hugged the bird and hummed, "Who told you to only bring that little bit?"
Eribe was depressed and couldn't help but roar in her heart, can I be blamed for this? Who knew that this dead bird would actually follow?
He could only shout this in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it in reality. The little bird who provoked it was not happy, and the most important thing was that if it angered Xiaoxue, it would be bad.
Soon, Hao Meng and the others turned to a hotel on the street, and Hao Meng and Ellie got out of the car: "Let's go in first and ask about the situation, you wait here for a while." ”
They nodded, and sat in the carriage and waited. After waiting for a while, Hao Meng and Ellie came out, both of them with helpless expressions on their faces.
"How's it going?" asked Eribe impatiently.
Hao Meng spread his hands: "No problem, the room has been occupied, let's go to another hotel to have a look." ”
He and Ellie then hopped into the carriage and headed for the next inn.
Fortunately, as a famous tourist destination, there are enough hotels in Hill Town, plus some houses are rented nearby, and it is generally no problem to accept tens of thousands of people.
It's just that I don't know if Hao Meng and them are unlucky, or if they are unlucky, they found several hotels in a row, but they all said that there was no place, and they were all full.
Ellie couldn't help but raise her eyebrows after hearing this: "This shouldn't be the peak tourist season in Hill Town, right?
The waiter at a hotel couldn't help but say, "Aren't the guest officers from the academy?"
"yes, we're from the academy, what's the matter?" Hao Meng wondered.
"Recently, four secondary colleges have held a training camp in Hill Town, not only have all the hotels been chartered, but even many rental houses have been given, even if there are some left, they have been taken away by other individual customers, and if a few really want to live, I am afraid that they can only live in the wilderness. ”
"Four middle school training camps?" Hao Meng and Ellie couldn't help but look at each other.
After Hao Meng came back to his senses, he said directly: "Which four middle colleges?"
"It seems to be Clay College, Newest College, Blue College, and what's it called? By the way, it's called Rhett College!" the waiter recalled.
"What? Rhett Academy?"
PS: Where is the monthly pass, where is the monthly pass? The monthly pass is in the palm of everyone's hand (to be continued......)
