Verse 71 is accidental

"Probably...... I'm tired of wandering around. Ashrufat replied. "But let's be honest, in a place like Brasian, it seems like a pretty good choice to marry two wives and spend the rest of your life together in peace. ”

"Your words reveal your inner hesitation, but I admit that this world is very cruel. Lanny said. "Not all hard work pays off...... More just for nothing. Ashrufat, if you come from a family of high-ranking officials, then I think you are already famous by now...... is already the lord of a city and a land. ”

"yes, unfortunately I'm not. Ashrufat replied with a smile, "I'm just a mercenary, and at most I've been a captain. ”

As he spoke, he had already put Lannie in the car. This is a mail car, that is, in the Anthropocene, the best choice for those who have money but not very rich to travel far away, and can travel quickly and safely to and from major cities. Normally, the mail car is shared by multiple people, but this time Lannie is moving, so she carries a lot of gifts and has to charter a car by herself.

"See you again. Lanny leaned out of the carriage and waved goodbye to Ashrufat.

After sending her off, Ashrufat walked back. Walloon City is the main city of the Northern County, and it is much larger than the city of Bracian in terms of size and prosperity, and it can already be regarded as a good city. According to others, although Walloon is only the main city of the Northern County, its prosperity is not inferior to Nosi, the capital of the province of Acanea.

Ahead is already the market of Wallonia – a bustling commercial city, the city's markets are crowded and lively every day. This is a notch higher than the city of Brasian. The bazaars in Brasian City are not bad, but only when large caravans arrive, or during festivals, and on normal days they are less so. And in terms of overall scale, Wallonia's fairs are far from being comparable to those of Brasian.

If you go back, you should buy something for your two fiancées. With this in mind, Ashrufat searched left and right in the bazaar, looking for an item that was easy to carry but a little classy.

There is indeed a lot of cargo here. The amount of food, fabrics, decorations, spices, etc., is so large that it makes people feel like they can't find it. However, after spending a little time, he still bought two seashell necklaces that are relatively rare in the mainland.

"Is there anybody? Can anyone help me?"

Ashrufat stopped, and with some surprise he heard someone asking for help.

It was a woman on the side of the road, between two stalls, who spoke. The girl looked young, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a confused and helpless expression on her face. Ashrufat was somewhat surprised to see the other pedestrians hurrying by, seemingly ignoring the girl's cry for help.

This seems a little strange, because this is not a remote alley, and three or five big men can come out at any time, and they will come out of it at any time, and they will come to extort money with a fierce spirit. This is the middle of the city, there must be soldiers to maintain order, and any dispute will attract the city's law enforcers.

Ashrufat didn't have time to think about it, and stepped forward. "Miss, do you need help?"

"You...... Can you hear me?" the girl looked at Ashrufat uneasily.

"Of course I can hear you, what's wrong? May I ask ...... you?"

"I'm lost. The girl was visibly relieved. Ashrufat peeked around, but didn't seem to see any ill-intentioned glances. The people in the bazaar were in a hurry, and no one had time to stop and look at others.

"Lost?"

"I'm an out-of-towner. The girl's expression was like seeing a savior. "The first time I came here, I was separated from my family. I need to go to the boulevard now, where there is a house painted pink on the outside. It was where I stayed, but I didn't know how to get there. ”

"It's not a problem. "Ashrufat really thought it was a little strange. "At every intersection in the city, there are road signs that you can find boulevards. In fact, any well-planned city has these configurations (not necessarily in a small place like Brasian, of course), and Ashrufat himself is a newcomer, but he has never worried about "getting lost". "If there's no signage, or if it's vague, then at least look at the street signs along the road, which have the name of the street written on them. ”

"I ......" the girl twisted her hands uneasily, her face flushed, and she lowered her head at the same time. "I don't know how to read. ”

"Ah......" Ashrufat immediately apologized, "I'm so sorry. He looked at the girl's dress, and she was dressed in a rather beautiful uniform, which looked like a servant of the rich family, but not quite like it. To be honest, it's hard to tell where she's coming from from the way she looks. To say that she is a nobleman, then she lacks the kind of heartfelt, high-minded arrogance, to say that she is a servant, and she does not have that kind of low-brow and obedient look, to say that she is a country girl, but neither clothes, jewelry, nor conversation are like. I must say that she looks like someone, I can only say that she is a bit like a squire nobleman, but she is only "a little bit like". If you take the two sisters Hoshimi and Hoshiki as a reference, you will find that this girl is very different from the two of them.

"Well, I have time now, and I can take you to the boulevard if I wish. ”

"Thank you so much. The girl immediately bowed to him and said in a grateful voice. "Everybody calls me Fana. ”

"My name is ......" Ashruphat tried to name it, but finally thought it was over. "Let's go. ”

Soon, the two men left the bazaar side by side.

Although Eshuruphat had to find the Pierce Chamber of Commerce before and needed Lenny to lead the way, it was not a problem at all to find a street. Whenever you arrive at an intersection, just look at the signage that guides the way. It's likely to take a long detour, but you'll always find your goal.

"This is the boulevard. As he turned a corner, Ashruphat pointed to the way ahead. The city seems to be well-planned, and the "boulevard" is lined with residential areas that look neat and pleasing to the eye, and at first glance it is a neighborhood for the wealthy, or at least the middle-class families.

In front of you, you can see a house that, as Fana said, has its entire exterior painted pink.

"It should be that one. Fana looked very happy and thanked Ashruphat once more.

Although Ashrufat was now able to leave, he continued to accompany Fana to the pink house for some reason. At this moment, he was completely sure that this was just an ordinary incident of getting lost, and it was not some bait to lure people into a trap.

"Anyway, Fana, where are you from?? Ashrufat asked inadvertently.

"No," Fana replied. "I'm from the city of Brassian. She replied with a smile. Ashrufat found that although the woman was illiterate, she did not look like a vulgar talker. It's really a wonderful combination of contradictions.

"Are you a resident of Bracian?"

"No, because my family is going to live in Brassian for a while, so I stay with her. Fana replied. "This time, I also accompanied her to this city, as if to buy things and recruit people. However, in the end, he accidentally got separated in the market and got lost. ”

Oh, businessman? That's normal. Ashrufat didn't think much of it.

In the blink of an eye, they were in front of the pink house. The color of this house is striking, because there is no second building of the same color as far as the eye can see.

"Thank you, Mr. Ashrufat. Fana had clearly confirmed that this was where she was staying. It is a pleasure to thank Ashrufat once again. "If you may, please come in and let me treat you a little. ”

"No, thanks. Ashrufat said. "I have a few other things. ”

Fana stood in the doorway, watching Ashrufat walk away. It wasn't until he was gone that she started knocking.

"Who is it?" the door opened from the inside. "It's my sister, I'm scared to death! I thought you were lost. You're dumb and can't speak, so it's dangerous to get lost. ”

"It's lost. But Shirley, I was lucky because I met a kind gentleman on the way who helped me lead the way back. ”

"A kind gentleman?"

"Well, he can hear me. With that, Fana glanced back in the direction Ashrufat had left. Because she didn't care, Ashrufat didn't notice a strange thing—when Fana spoke, her mouth never opened.

......

Ashrufat wasted a little more time in Wallonia. When it was dusk, he began to walk towards the inn where he was staying. Wallonia, like Brassian, has a thriving business and therefore a thriving hotel industry. The place where Ashrufat settled was a small but very elaborate inn. The downside of this shop is that it doesn't offer food and beverages, but that's perfect for Ashrufat.

Over this time, Ashruphat has grown accustomed to the surprising quality of "not needing food". Of course, this is just his habit in life, and in his heart, he is full of doubts about his ability. He has confirmed that at least three days of drinking only water and not eating do not seem to have any adverse consequences for him.

The hostel is located on a bustling street with lots of people. Ashrufat walked forward, and as he was thinking about it, he collided head-on with a man who was approaching him. Eshurufat's figure only swayed slightly, and the other party was knocked back a few steps and sat on the ground.

"I'm sorry!" Ashruphat came back to his senses and immediately apologized casually. "I didn't care...... It's you, Gray?!"
