Chapter 350: The Tavern of Ercheng
"You mean, you don't know how to go through the border?"
Xunchen's eyes widened, and he suddenly looked more like a big horse monkey, he didn't expect that this Liang people would be so enthusiastic, he obviously just asked for directions, why did he finally kidnap people?
According to Chi Niu's words, he didn't dare to let the noble young master's silver go to waste.
"Although I don't recognize the road now, but in a while we can go to the front of Ercheng to buy a map, with the map, I promise to send you two to the border city safely and securely, you know, we Liang people are all good at finding the map!"
Chi Niu patted his chest and said.
In the end, Xun Chen thought about it, and still accepted Chi Niu's construction, after all, with Chi Niu by his side, it was beneficial to have such a serious demon clan person as Chi Niu by his side, whether it was to cover for him and Su Wen, or to deal with other demon clansmen.
What's more important is that this Chi Niu doesn't seem to have any heart, but for Xun Chen, it is very easy to control, so as not to cause trouble for them.
In this way, the three of them walked together, and before dark, they rushed to the nearest town to Chi Niu's tribe.
Ercheng.
For Su Wen, when he first arrived in the Demon Domain, he found that whether it was the name of the Demon Clan, the name of the tribe, or even the name of the town, it sounded quite interesting.
Especially when he found out that he still needed to pay the city tax if he wanted to enter the demon town, his interest suddenly became stronger.
Ercheng is only a small city, but everyone who enters the city needs to pay a tael of silver. Originally, Su Wen was still worried that the soldiers guarding the city gate would come forward to investigate, but he never thought that as long as you paid the money honestly. No one cares about you at all.
One or two pieces of silver is still a bit expensive for a clansman from a small tribe like Chi Niu, but for a local tyrant like Xun Chen, he doesn't bother to pick it up when he falls on the ground.
But to Su Wen and Xun Chen's surprise, Chi Niu actually refused their kindness to pay for him, but insisted on taking out a piece of broken silver from his small baggage and handing it over to the soldiers defending the city.
This happened again at dinnertime.
Although Chi Niu also sat at the same table with Su Wen. But he ordered a plate of vegetables alone, honestly picked up the rice, and resolutely did not touch the big fish and meat ordered by the dust.
"I've taken your money. How can I let you pay for it when I'm out of the house? Don't worry, before I came out this time, I secretly brought a lot of plates. ”
So Su Wen couldn't help but sigh secretly. This is really an overly honest guy.
Satiated. Chi Niu really went to buy a map, and of course, the money for the map was also paid for by himself.
The Liang people are good at planting, and whether they are planting fruit trees or rice, they have to find the right soil, so it is also the talent of the Liang people to find their way.
Although Chi Niu has never been out of Ercheng in his life, he has been taught by Abba to recognize maps since he was a child, and he still remembers. Abba has lamented many times that the best place to plant fruit trees is to do so. It's still in Tianliang County, but it's a pity that it's all occupied by the people of the Xingyue clan, and every time he talks about it, Chi Niu can't help but listen to it.
So when he got the map and saw that he would pass through Tianliang County on the way to the border city, Chi Niu couldn't help but grin and giggle for a long time.
On the other side, Xunchen was about to take Su Wen to the only tavern in Ercheng to have a look.
"If you want to find out the news, what could be more convenient than a place like a tavern?" When Xun Chen said this, there was a look on his face that made Su Wen a little.
In this regard, Su Wen could only smile wryly, thinking in his heart that he had never eaten pork, hadn't he seen a pig run?
When he arrived at the door of the tavern, Chi Niu smiled stupidly and said, "I won't go in, I'll just wait for you at the door." ”
Su Wen knew that although Chi Niu said that he had brought enough coils, it was still too extravagant for him to go into the tavern to drink, and it was not easy to persuade him at the moment, so he nodded, and walked in with Xunchen.
The name of the tavern is very simple, it is called "Ercheng Tavern", of course, this may also be because there is only one such tavern in the huge Ercheng City.
Along the way, in addition to the Liang people of Chi Niu's tribe, Su Wen also saw many other demon clansmen one after another, which suddenly changed Su Wen's original impression of the demon clansmen.
Originally, in the minds of most human beings, the demon race was barbaric, fierce, and even ignorant, which was based on the impression left by the demon soldiers who repeatedly invaded the human border, as well as the demon clan's inability to attract talent and obtain a literary position.
Before this, Su Wen also thought so.
Although he got acquainted with the three princesses of the demon clan in the Yellow Crane Tower, Gojo, judging from the other party's appearance, it seems to be very different from the well-known demon clan, but Gojo is the royal family of the demon clan after all, and his words and deeds are no different from human beings, which seems to be understandable.
But now Su Wen really saw these ordinary demon clansmen, in addition to their appearance, their way of life, their behavior habits, conversation, temperament, and folk customs are all no different from human beings!
It is true that not every demon clan person will be as honest and honest as Chi Niu, but at least in Su Wen's opinion, they are by no means as terrifying as human impressions.
This undoubtedly subverted Su Wen's traditional concept of the demon clan, but for Xun Chen, he was not as surprised as Su Wen expressed.
It was as if he had known what a real demon man was like.
The two walked into the Ercheng Tavern, only to find that it was not as hot as Xun Chen had imagined, but rather deserted compared to the Human Restaurant, where there were four or five guests scattered around, and the boss was also chatting with the regular customers very leisurely.
At this time, when he saw the guests coming in, the boss hurriedly stood up and eagerly beckoned the two to sit down.
"What are you two going to drink?"
Xunchen grinned and sniffed, then said with a smile: "I've only drunk our red fruit wine there, I don't know if the boss has it here?"
The tavern owner couldn't help but shake his head in embarrassment and said, "It seems that the two of you are from the east, and red fruit wine is a specialty over there." There is no small shop, but I recommend our plum wine here, why don't you try it?"
Xunchen touched his nose in disappointment. Then he nodded and said, "Okay, then two pots of plum wine." ”
The boss went to drink with a smile, but several people at the table next to him kept looking at Su Wen and Xunchen, with curious eyes flashing in their eyes.
It is no wonder that within a radius of dozens of miles in Ercheng, the large and small tribes add up to less than ten, except for the Liang clan and the Mo clan. There are also the Ash people, the House people, the Tamxiao people, etc., and the people who live here are also used to the storage of the neighbors, but now Su Wen and Xunchen are dressed up. But it makes them look fresh.
A young man from the Ash tribe took advantage of his drunkenness and asked with a smile: "I heard the boss here just now that you are from the east?"
Xunchen didn't see any life, nodded and responded, "Yes." I'm Aqua of the Mandrill Clan. This is Duanmu of the Sea Clan. ”
Hearing this, everyone was immediately interested, it turned out that these two people were really from the East Coast, and they were the famous Mandrill Clan and Sea Clan!
The young man of the Ash tribe suddenly sighed: "It turned out to be a guest from afar, you just call me Xiaoqi." ”
At this time, the tavern owner also happened to bring up the green plum wine, and Xunchen immediately raised his wine glass and drank a glass with Xiao Qiyin.
"I don't know if the two of you came from afar. Where are you going?" the boss also seemed to have a warm personality, and took the initiative to talk to Xunchen at the moment.
"We're going to the border city to join the army. My brother has admired the Black Flag Army since he was a child, but unfortunately he is a Sea Clan, so we came thousands of miles to the south of Xinjiang just to try our luck. ”
Hearing this, the tavern owner suddenly smiled and said: "It's always good to be ambitious, speaking of which, if you want to join the army, maybe in a while, there will be leaders of the border cities to recruit soldiers!"
"Oh?" When Xiao Qi heard this, he suddenly said strangely: "What, Lao Ken, what wind did you hear again?"
The tavern owner called Lao Ken poured himself a glass, and then said leisurely: "Haven't you heard?
The Northern Barbarian is the name of the demon people for human beings, and they call the demon beast also called the brute beast, which shows that in the eyes of ordinary demon people, human beings are no different from beasts.
Lao Ken's words were an understatement, but they stirred up turbulent waves in the hearts of Su Wen and Xunchen.
Xunchen picked up his wine glass, took a sip of green plum wine, tried his best to calm himself, and asked curiously, "The Northern Barbarians are coming?"
Lao Ken shook his head with a smile, "fight" and "fight", although there is only one word difference, but they are two completely different meanings.
"It's not a war with us, but their own people are going to fight with their own people, you say, at this time, isn't it a good opportunity for us to send troops? That's why I just said that we should be conscripted soon!"
For a moment, Su Wen secretly clenched his fists, and two words suddenly flashed in his mind.
These two words were said to him by Mu Xi in the state examination room at the beginning, and they were also the focus of the state examination.
That is, the Civil War!
Could it be that the ten nations of the Terran race are really about to break out into a civil war?
Su Wen was a little stunned for a while, when the Holy Land was opened before, didn't he hear that the contradictions between countries had intensified to the point where war was inevitable?
Although it has been almost half a month since everyone left the Yellow Crane Tower, it is not possible for such a big thing to happen!
At this moment, let alone Su Wen, even Xunchen couldn't sit still.
If the news Lao Ken said is true, how can he, as the current Terran military advisor and the Terran Jade Seal, drink here with peace of mind!
No, we must rush back to the human realm as much as possible!
