Chapter 63: Cloud City
The boy hadn't vomited yet, his mind was dizzy, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw something slipping past him, and instinctively reached out to fish—
He grabbed the girl's little hand.
But this little guy is not big, but the weight is not light, and it is heavy like a small cannonball. The boy was young and weak, and she took him to slide down.
Immediately afterwards, both of them were light-Chitose made a timely move, lifted them up, and threw them to the side of the board like a chick, away from the anchor head.
She raised her eyebrows: "It's all sick like this, and it's not worry-free!"
This time the world was spinning and mending the knife, and the boy immediately fell to the side and vomited.
Chitose quickly moved three feet away, full of disgust.
The fat woman finally came to her senses, took the child back into her arms and thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you, girl, thank you little master!"
She took out a small jar of medicinal oil from her bosom and handed it to the boy: "Rub a little on your forehead to relieve the fainting." ”
The boy was uncomfortable, but he didn't refuse, and scooped out a little medicinal oil and applied it to his temples. The sideburns were cool, the nose was spicy, and the boredom was really relieved slightly.
The fat woman found a conversation: "Where are you going?" The girl in her arms was about three or four years old, with clear eyebrows and fair skin, and was looking at the two in front of her with big round eyes.
"Cloud City. Chitose replied lightly, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
She exuded an aura of being unapproachable, and the fat woman laughed dryly a few times and said no more.
¥¥¥¥¥
The sand boat sailed to the opposite bank, and the riverside was already lit up.
After getting off the boat with the big current, the fat woman hugged the girl and said hello to the two of them and left.
The boy took a deep breath, the air was cold and fresh, and there was a slight moisture characteristic of the river.
It's a taste of freedom and security.
Behind, there were no more pursuers.
He sat on a boulder by the river for a quarter of an hour, and the discomfort of seasickness finally disappeared.
The horse was unharmed, and after a few bites of turf, Chitose pointed at it and smiled, "You don't have this horse yet, and it must not have been on a boat." ”
She stood beside him and stretched out without scruples, "Let's go, find a good restaurant and have a big meal!"
These days, she eats and lives in the wild, and every meal only has salted fish and hard jerky, and occasionally she can hunt two game, and she is about to fade out of her mouth.
She really wants to gnaw on a big hoof, it has to be stewed fat enough, soft enough, fragrant enough, pick it up and shake it to separate the skin and flesh, and chew it in her mouth full of oil!
The boy shook his head and said before she lost her temper, "Big city...... Delicious!Order as you like!"
The city is big enough, and the food is abundant and delicious!
And he said, the self-help questions are unlimited!
Chitose was not angry, carried him to the horse, and slapped the horse hard: "Drive, run!"
The horses' hooves were loud, and after passing through the narrow riverside fishing market, the chestnut horses picked up speed along the main road.
The east bank of the Cuilan River is fertile for thousands of miles, and it is not easy to find even a small mountain bag, and the road is flat and straight, which is by no means as rugged and difficult to walk as the mountain road on the west side of the river.
So two hours later, the boy arrived at one of the most prosperous cities in the Sand Realm, Cloud City.
Night had already fallen, and the west gate of Cloud City was still brightly lit, with a large number of people coming in and out.
Cloud City has no curfew, and it is a standard city that never sleeps.
When the boy first saw the ten-zhang high city gate tower, he was shocked, and after entering the west gate, he was speechless for a long time.
The rows of houses and buildings of varying heights are only condensed into thick black shadows at night, showing no edges and figures, but the light through the windows exposes the prosperity of the city.
As soon as the boy stood at the west gate, he could see the lights of thousands of homes, flickering and eternal, bright but gentle, like the stars in the sky reflecting the world.
It is also reflected in the boy's eyes.
At this moment, he held his breath.
After a long time, he squeezed out a syllable, and finally the words were round: "Beautiful!"
"Isn't that beautiful?" hillbilly!" Chitose scoffed, "You haven't seen ...... before"
Before he finished speaking, the two men behind the boy said impatiently: "Can't you go?
As soon as he entered the city gate, he stood in a daze, blocking the way of the others.
The boy woke up like a dream, and led the horse forward, the bluestone pavement was clean, smooth and spacious, and could accommodate at least ten horses riding side by side.
Even the sound of horses' hooves on the road is so crisp and pleasant.
If he hadn't gotten the wooden bell, if he hadn't fled all the way, if he hadn't experienced so many dangers, he would have thought that the little city of Yicheng was the whole world.
The spectacle in front of him would not even appear in his dreams.
"Before you even got to the restaurant, you started drooling?" Chitose looked disdainful, "Exit!"
The boy had seen the magnificence of the city, but she had smelled the smell of drunkenness, just as many of the great cities she had ever stayed in.
Oh yes, and the aroma of the meal.
She sniffed lightly twice and patted the boy on the shoulder: "Hurry up, I'm hungry!"
The main street of Cloud City is very magnificent, and the name is even more magnificent - Heavenly Street.
The city is well planned, and from the West City Gate to the east, it leads to the core area of the entire Cloud City. As a result, the buildings on both sides of the street are getting taller and more elaborate, and the facades are becoming more and more magnificent.
Even the lanterns under the eaves are getting brighter and brighter.
The boy happened to pass by a three-story restaurant, and the gilded sign could still blind the eyes in the light.
At the door of the restaurant, the door is like a market.
"Fushouju. Chitose pronounced the name of the signboard word by word, and her beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed into moon buds, "Let's go in and have a big meal!"
She smelled the smell, sesame oil, old wine, and the smoke from a hot pan.
The red dust world is too boring, and only this one is worth her attention.
In the midst of her anticipation, the boy led the chestnut horse and walked in front of the door.
Gain, gain, without stopping.
"Hey!"
Mo said that he stopped, and he didn't look back.
Chitose was furious, and his willow eyebrows were upside down: "Why don't you go in!" Fang was on the bank of the Cuilan River, and he clearly said that he could order and eat as much as he wanted!
The boy still cherishes words like gold:
"Expensive!"
How much money do you have to burn for a meal here? They have a limited amount of money in their pockets, so they have to spend it tightly.
"Your sister!" Chitose's slender jade fingers were about to poke his nose, "You little liar!"
No matter how furious she was, the boy walked on firmly, passing one splendid restaurant after another, but he didn't squint.
That's a lot of miles.
Chitose has the heart to eat a good meal, but she can't stay away from the wooden bell, so she can only passively follow the boy.
Eventually, the shops on both sides of the road became smaller and smaller, and the lights were no longer so dense.
The most prosperous section of the Heavenly Street has been left behind by them.
Chitose sat on horseback with a calm face and said nothing.
The boy kept an eye on his surroundings, and then suddenly pointed to the side: "Second change." ”
