One early morning in late July.

A small boat sailed out of a thickly fogged jungle.

The rickety hull of the ship came downstream along the Twilight River among the three rivers of Jiuwan City, and finally arrived at Jiuwan City, which was located in the center of the world of the forest courtyard.

Subsequently, the boat docked at the river.

The two men on the boat returned to the surface and abandoned the boat.

The woman took some money and gave it to the man, and the other party carried a brown and yellow horse, and then walked in the direction of Jiuwan City together.

This man and woman are naturally Lindsay and Eleni.

Another month has passed.

It stands to reason that Eleni's beloved horse should be cared for in the villages and towns along the way, either healed or dead.

But this time the horse's pneumonia seems to be related to some kind of foreign body.

After a short period of improvement, it soon relapsed, and even less competent physicians could not do anything about it.

So until the end, the two still went on the road with a sick horse.

Seeing that it was the last leg of the journey into the city, Lindsay didn't mind carrying her horse on her shoulder.

On his way to the city, he quipped to Eleni:

"Eleni, we've spent a lot of time on this horse?"

Aleni accompanied by a smiling face:

"Who's to say it isn't?"

Lindsay asked:

"Didn't you think about selling this horse on the road like any other cargo?"

"If it was in another world, I would have sold it a long time ago!" Aleni gritted her teeth and cried, "But in a world like the forest garden, it is not a small amount to buy a horse, and it will definitely be a big loss for me to deal with it casually!" ”

"If you really want to sell it at the right price, it has to be a big city like Jiuwan City."

Lindsey could understand Elenie's thoughts.

The environment of the forest courtyard is not suitable for the needs of horse breeding.

The local beasts used for pack transportation have not yet been domesticated, so the price of such livestock is still at a high point.

It didn't take long for the two of them to come to the outside of Jiuwan City.

Three nearby rivers crisscrossed the city, and the gate where Lindsay and her arrival was built right out of the city.

Even though there are other residents in the vicinity who come and go on a daily basis.

But Eleni, with a mournful face, and Lindsay, who is wearing a fisherman's suit and carrying a horse in her hand, are still too eye-catching.

The guards on the bridge saw them from afar.

A middle-aged guard informed his companion and hurriedly ran over:

"Two ...... Is it the Awoken? ”

Of course, it is impossible for ordinary people to carry a horse around at will.

The guards did not dare to slack off.

Lindsay didn't speak, and Aleni stepped forward to negotiate:

"I'm a businessman, and this is my assistant."

"We came from Cape Lookout, and on the way the horse got sick. So I'm sorry, I can only use this conspicuous method. ”

"I understand, Ms. Merchant." The guard nodded, and asked as usual, "So have you ever entered the city in Jiuwan City before?" ”

Aleni pulled out a badge engraved with the image of the two snakes and handed it to the other party to inspect.

At the same time, he introduced himself:

"Of course, Eleni, the merchants' guilds in the city also have my name."

The guards checked the badge while cautiously looking at Lindsay, who was carrying the horse behind:

"So this ......"

Aleni suddenly asked rhetorically:

"The road to the cosmic frontier of the Montenegrin world has been reopened. You guys should have received the news too, right? ”

The guard nodded naturally:

"Of course, the messenger sent the news two months ago."

Erin smiled and patted the other party's shoulder, and a few copper coins slipped down her fingertips into the other's arms:

"He's the Awoken I hired over there."

"Don't worry, this guy is a gamer by profession, and his ability is just a little bit of strength......"

The guards were reluctant to provoke the Awakened, not to mention that they had also given tips, and at the same time, there was a record of recognition in the city.

After such negotiations.

Lindsay also managed to gain an identity to enter the city.

They then headed to the business district of Nine Bay City.

The two who have been together along the way have finally come to the moment of separation.

Lindsay didn't frolic with Alinee this time, but deliberately transported the merchant girl's horse to the Chamber of Commerce, and then prepared to leave silently.

Aleni chased after her directly, and her tone was impatient:

"Lindsay, you're leaving?"

Lindsey nodded:

"I want to continue to do business, and I have my own things to do."

“……”

"Good luck then."

Alini's expression suddenly changed from impatient to a gentle smile.

She leaned over and hugged Lindsay as if she were a friend's parting, and whispered softly:

"Here in Jiuwan City, I can also help you solve the identity problem of entering the city."

"But if you go over the city, you'll have to figure it out yourself."

"Stay safe ......"

Leaving this reminder, the merchant girl walked into the chamber of commerce without looking back.

Lindsey stood in the doorway.

Soon the maiden complained about the bad luck on the journey, and the confrontation over the price of the horses.

"Well, then, I wish you a prosperous business."

Lindsay whispered goodbye.

In the past three months, although the two have a lot of intrigues and small actions, they are already real friends in their relationship.

Otherwise, the profit-seeking trait of a businessman.

Aleni will not help him solve the trouble of entering the city for free, and it is impossible for her to chase him out and remind him when they are separated in the end.

Say goodbye to this chance merchant friend.

Lindsey turned around and walked alone in Nine Bay City.

Compared to Cape Lookout, which is located on the edge of the world, the city has many more stone and brick houses, in addition to the most visible wooden buildings.

But the most striking are the three rivers.

Echo Valley River, Shang River, Twilight River.

These three rivers originally met in pairs in the forest garden, but instead of merging into one river, they branched out into three tributaries again.

Jiuwan City is located here, and it includes all the bays of the three rivers.

Anywhere in the city.

Just walk through two blocks and you'll see the river flowing through the city.

But it is not like the water city of Venice, where the whole city floats on the water, and it is still the foundation of the land city.

"But if it's the rainy season, it's flooding."

"Then you can't flood the city?"

This question naturally crossed Lindsay's mind.

The change of seasons in the forest garden is not obvious, but the interweaving of the rainy and dry seasons that dominates the climate of this world.

After a journey like this, Lindsay no longer pondered the question.

Because he reflects the nature of the world:

"After all, there are the Awakened to manage it, maybe they have a way to deal with it?"

Lindsay's thinking gradually shifted to the true purpose of his trip.

The doctor who treated the organizer's injuries - Mr. Tang.

"So, let's go to a city hall or something like that and ask about the situation."

"And the other party is not related to me."

"If you want to commission treatment, I'm afraid you will have to pay some price."
