Chapter 371: The Legend of Seventy Yards
Located in the central plain of the Cold Stone Continent, the imperial capital Cold Stone City is the most prosperous city in the entire Cold Stone Empire, with a permanent population of five million, and an extremely prosperous commercial civilization.
Under the noon sun of December, the east gate of Cold Stone City was fully opened, and the vast road was large enough for three carriages to pass in parallel, and the travelers and caravans from afar passed through the east gate and merged into the bustling crowd, like a drop of water merging into the magnificent sea, causing no repercussions at all.
At noon, an Oriental man from afar walked into the east gate of Cold Stone City slowly with his bags on his back, looking at the almost endless commercial street in front of him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but completely ignored the strange gazes of the civilians around him.
There is no doubt that this newcomer from the East is none other than Lin Taiping, who escaped from the Land of Bones, probably because of good luck, the connection between the Land of Bones and the world of Constance happened to be on the central plain near Cold Stone City, so it didn't take him much time to arrive at the city.
As for the next thing to do, of course, is to find the dark creatures and Baron Michael first, because they have been recuperating in the land of bones for more than ten days, so if the guess is not wrong, then at this moment, the dark creatures should have met the Prime Minister of Hilton under the guidance of Baron Michael, so as long as they go to the mansion of the Prime Minister of Hilton, they should be able to meet the dark creatures.
And how to find the residence of Prime Minister Hilton, this is obviously an extremely simple matter, Lin Taiping stood on the bustling commercial street and hesitated for a moment, then immediately stopped a middle-aged man beside him, and asked very politely: "Dear sir, can you tell me, how to get to Prime Minister Hilton's mansion?"
"The Prime Minister's Residence, are you going to the Hilton Prime Minister's Residence?" the middle-aged man was slightly stunned. looked at Lin Taiping thoughtfully, but quickly replied, "This is very simple, you walk along this commercial street, and after turning two more intersections, you will soon see ......."
Before he could finish speaking, the middle-aged man suddenly raised his head in some surprise and looked at the end of the bustling street in the distance, and in the warm afternoon breeze, there seemed to be a little chaos at the end of the street. It seemed to be mixed with the exclamations of the crowd and the roar of the carriage.
The next moment, before Lin Taiping could come back to his senses, a panicked voice suddenly sounded, looking so strange in the bustling commercial street: "West! Baron West is here!"
In an instant, the whole street suddenly fell into an eerie silence, and the civilians and merchants on the street all turned their heads to look at each other, and after only a few seconds, they didn't know who was leading the way and screaming. Everyone sprang into action in an instant, and fled in panic.
Bang bang, all the shops on both sides of the street are closed, and pedestrians are either hiding in the alleys or turning around and rushing into the houses. A few children who had been separated from their parents in the chaos were crying loudly with flushed faces, and even the drunken diners suddenly woke up in an instant. Even crawled and fled so much that I couldn't even see my back.
"What's the situation? What is the situation?" Lin Taiping couldn't help but be speechless, grabbed the coat of the middle-aged man beside him, and asked in surprise. "Wait, sir, you don't seem to have told me where the Hilton Prime Minister's mansion is......"
"Damn, don't worry about this!" The middle-aged man was so anxious that his face turned red, he gritted his teeth and simply didn't even want his coat, he just took off his coat and turned around and ran, and by the way, he didn't forget to kindly remind, "Oriental, get out of here quickly, that guy West and his fox friends are simply the biggest scourge in the imperial capital, if you are bumped into by them, you will be completely finished!"
Before the words fell, the middle-aged man also disappeared without a trace, and the originally prosperous and lively streets suddenly became empty, not even a sparrow could be seen, only Lin Taiping was still standing in place dumbfounded-Baron West, fox friends, the greatest scourge of the imperial capital, etc., how did these words sound like they were describing Baron Michael?
It turned out that Baron West and his friends were much more powerful than Baron Michael, the second generation of provincial officials, and only a few seconds later, there was a sudden thunderous roar in the distant street, so noisy that even the ground trembled slightly.
The next moment, accompanied by the flying smoke and dust, more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages came from a distance at high speed, racing and chasing each other noisily, without any intention of slowing down at all, but instead smashing all the commercial stalls along the way into pieces, if a few pedestrians were not very timely on the wall, I am afraid that they would be knocked upside down and fly out immediately.
"Haha, I've won this competition!" On the golden carriage that took the lead, a young nobleman who was overly drunk waved his horsewhip and shouted triumphantly, "Listen, you guys who lost, you must give me all the fox slave girls you bought a few days ago, and whoever dares to repay the debt will demolish his house!"
"Don't be too happy, West, it's not certain who loses and who wins!" On the carriages next to them, more than a dozen young nobles all shouted, and as he spoke, several carriages accelerated and galloped, narrowing the distance between the two sides, and they were about to catch up.
"Damn, don't think it's going to catch up with me so easily!" West screamed in frustration, waving his horsewhip even more frantically, and under his desperate drive, the four horses pulling the cart accelerated and accelerated, as if they were completely out of control, and crushed all the obstacles in their path to pieces.
However, unfortunately, Lin Taiping happened to be in front of the carriage, and it was too late to dodge for a while, Baron West was desperately driving the horse, and suddenly saw a damn guy in front of him, and couldn't help but roar angrily: "Bastard, get out of the way, get out of the way!" If you cause me to lose this game, you will ...... it."
It doesn't matter what it is, because at this moment, the carriage rushing at high speed has already rushed over fiercely, viciously hitting Lin Taiping, and then the wheel slipped and suddenly lost control, crookedly rushed into a shop on the side of the road, and finally made a screeching sound and barely stopped.
Baron West jumped down from the carriage in shock, looking at the front of the car that had been crashed, this guy couldn't help but jump to his feet angrily: "Damn! Damn bastard! actually caused me to lose the game, you better be glad that you have been knocked to death, if you are still alive, I will let you experience a more terrible taste than death!"
What is called arrogance, this is called arrogance, more than a dozen noble children next to him also stopped, looking at the shops that had been smashed into ruins and Lin Taiping, who had no traces, several of them couldn't help but change color slightly, and couldn't help but pull the corner of Baron West's clothes, and lowered their voices: "See the undead! West, you are in trouble again, if your father knows......
"If there's anything to be afraid of, it's good not to let him know. West kicked the carriage a few times in anger, but thinking of the severe punishment that his father had always had, he couldn't help but feel a little weak, rolled his eyes slightly, and immediately turned around and shouted to the pedestrians hiding on the side of the road: "Listen, what did you just see?"
We didn't see anything!" All the pedestrians were shaking their heads desperately, saying that at that moment, their presbyopia had a collective attack.
"Get out!" Unexpectedly, Baron West was not satisfied with this answer, and corrected him in a serious manner, "let me remind you, just now my carriage was moving at a speed of no more than seventy yards, and then this damned Oriental suddenly rushed out of the side of the road and crashed into my carriage, isn't it?"
"Damn! This is also called seventy yards, and it's almost the same as adding a zero to the end!" A large group of pedestrians couldn't help but secretly slander, but looking at Baron West's vicious expression, they could only nod honestly, okay, seventy yards is seventy yards, even if you said that you were knocked down by that oriental man at a speed of seventy yards, we can only accept it helplessly.
"Good, that's right. Baron West nodded with satisfaction, looked at those aristocratic friends with strange faces, and opened his hands very happily, "So, guys, you have all seen it, it's not my fault at all, if you want to blame that oriental, it's too reckless, maybe he just took the initiative to bump into it, and wanted to pretend to be injured and extort a lot of money from me......"
"Be careful!" Before he could finish his sentence, the noble children suddenly raised their heads and shouted with horror on their faces.
"What?" Baron West was taken aback, almost subconsciously turned around to look, and at this moment, when he saw the scene behind him, he suddenly exclaimed with a pale face, and then-
At this moment, the Oriental, who was supposed to be hit without a trace, suddenly reappeared strangely, and rode a huge fat rabbit, like a heavy siege vehicle, roaring over, a huge rabbit weighing several tons, coupled with the terrifying speed of the high-speed impact, enough to smash a city wall to pieces......
So, at this moment, in the stunned eyes of everyone, poor Baron West flew out like a kite with a broken string, screaming desperately, and slashed a graceful curve in the air, slammed into the ruins of the shop, and struggled to get up for half a day.
At this moment, everyone present was collectively stunned, and in the strange silence, a noble child suddenly screamed and rushed to the rescue: "West, West, are you okay? Damn, what are you waiting for, hurry up and catch that damn Oriental!"
Obviously, it's too late!
By the time those guards reacted and rushed up like a tide, Lin Taiping had already turned around on a red rabbit and ran away along the commercial street, and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye, the warm wind of noon blew, and only his smiling voice could be heard, still echoing on the empty street.
"Seventy yards, everyone, you have all seen that my speed is only seventy yards......" (To be continued......
