Chapter 1,157: What the three worlds have in common

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Jing Jiu swallowed as she looked at a large handful of fragrant fried ants in her hand.

These white ants are the first stage of strange beasts. They like to make their homes near the roots of the 'Tree of Life'.

Because this kind of strange beast only appears near the "Tree of Life" and because their meat is delicious, they have always been loved by the world.

A single Shoujia ant costs 25 copper coins, and a string of fried ants totals 5. A total string costs 1 silver and 25 copper coins. For Jing Jiu whose monthly salary is only 50 silver.

After deducting her living expenses and the money she had to send back to her hometown, when she usually wanted to eat this kind of delicacy unique to the 'capital city', Jing Jiu was only willing to buy a bunch to try.

But now, my employer treats me very generously and buys 8 skewers for myself.

Eight strings cost 10 silver coins, equivalent to one-fifth of his previous salary. Spending so much money on this special snack was unimaginable to Jing Jiu, who was financially strapped.

"Click, click..."

The carapace of this white ant beast was fried to a crisp, and every time Lin Fei took a bite, it made bursts of sound.

"Why don't you eat it?" Lin Fei asked with some confusion when he saw that Jing Jiu didn't move, "You think this fried one is too greasy, don't you like it?"

"Boss, no, I like to eat." Jing Jiu came to his senses and started to eat immediately.

"Click, click..."

The two of them walked and ate, and under Jing Jiu's leadership, Lin Fei visited many interesting places in the White Elf's 'capital'.

For example, the Hall of Fame records the great figures of the White Elf clan throughout the ages, each of whom has his or her own legendary story.

Another example is the movie hall, which is equivalent to the cinema on Blue Star...

Of course, what Lin Fei likes the most is the snack street in the White Elf's Capital City. This street stretches for one kilometer, and there are different snack shops on both sides of the street.

It is a bit magical to say that as long as there is a civilized world, after the local aborigines build a city.

As time goes by, at some point in the future, the special existence of a snack street will naturally be formed.

Whether it is the humans of Blue Star, the lizardmen on Lizard Island in the spiritual world, or the elves in the elven world, they all have the same thing in common in this regard.

The saying that food is the most important thing for the people is applicable in any world... Lin Fei was holding a variety of delicious snacks in his hands? He admired in his heart.

Then what did he remember? He turned his head and looked at the accountant whom he had just hired and whose mouth was full of oil.

"Huh?" Jing Jiu, who was eating, noticed Lin Fei's gaze. She swallowed the food in her mouth, and a faint red color appeared on her cheeks.

Following Lin Fei along the way, Jing Jiu ate all the delicacies that she was reluctant to spend money on before. Now her stomach was full.

"It's almost time. I'm going back to the manor. Are you going back with me now? Or in a day or two? Come back here to report." Lin Fei asked Jing Jiu with a smile.

How many hours had they spent together? According to the content of the conversation, Lin Fei had some understanding of this elf girl.

Jing Jiu is not an aborigine from Capital City, she comes from a remote town hundreds of kilometers away from here.

After graduating from a school in Capital City, a university equivalent to Blue Star, she chose to stay here and work hard.

After graduation, she moved out of the university dormitory and rented a cheap house not far from the Royal Bank.

Now she was hired by Lin Fei as the accountant and needed to live in the manor. It would take some time to pack her luggage, so Lin Fei asked her if she wanted to report back in a day or two.

"Boss, let's go together!" Jing Jiu made a decision immediately. Now that she had lost her job, she was very strapped for money. If Lin Fei reported again after a day or two, she would be worried that something would go wrong.

"Together? Can your check-out problem be solved quickly?" Lin Fei asked.

"Okay, I rent a house on a daily basis. Could you please boss, please go back with me and wait for me to pack my luggage? I have very little luggage and I can pack it quickly." Jing Jiu requested.

"Okay!" Lin Fei said, and then he stopped a white 'taxi' on the side of the road.

After the two got on the carriage, they first went to Jingjiu's residence.

Jing Jiu's residence is a large 6-story house, two streets away from the Royal Bank where she works, about 20 minutes away.

Lin Fei, who was waiting for Jing Jiu in the carriage, opened the curtain and looked thoughtfully at the house in front of him.

The structure of the entire house has several small rooms on the first floor, which reminded Lin Fei of similar apartments on Blue Star.

It’s surprising that there are houses converted into single apartments in this elven world... The more Lin Fei learns about this world, the more he feels that this world with its feudal system is full of fascinating things.

For example, the previous movie hall, compared with the movie theater on Blue Star, feels not bad at all.

"Da da da……"

Jing Jiu came out of the house in new clothes, holding a wooden trolley suitcase in her hand.

"There are even trolley cases, this..." Lin Fei ignored the elf girl who had specially dressed himself, and focused all his attention on the trolley suitcase next to her.

Jing Jiu followed Lin Fei's gaze and looked at his trolley suitcase. He smiled and said to Lin Fei, "My uncle made this for me."

"Your uncle is a carpenter?" Lin Fei guessed as he looked at the exquisite patterns carved on the wooden trolley case.

"Yeah." Jing Jiu nodded and then got on the carriage.

"Two guests, please sit tight, we are setting off." After receiving the response from the carriage, the coachman shouted "fight". His white horse understood and immediately headed towards the west gate of the "Capital City".

Lin Fei had read some posts on the Internet before, saying that ancient horse-drawn carriages did not have shock absorbers, and people sitting on the horse-drawn carriages could make people vomit if they drove in places with bad road conditions.

Lin Fei didn't know whether the content of the post was true or not, but Lin Fei, who had driven a carriage several times, really thought these taxis from another world were really good.

Although there were bumps and so on, they were not obvious. Lin Fei sensed psychic fluctuations under the carriage. It should be some kind of special psychic device that weakened the vibration of the carriage.

"Why did you change your clothes?" Lin Fei withdrew his attention from the psychic energy fluctuations under the carriage and looked at Jing Jiu and asked.

Jing Jiu, who was looking out the car window, turned around and said to Lin Fei, "Because there was some oil stains on what I just ate, I changed my clothes."

"Oh." Lin Fei believed Jing Jiu's explanation.

In fact, Jing Jiu felt that when she went to Lin Fei's manor for the first time, she would face other people in the manor. She wanted to face them with her best face, so she changed into her favorite clothes.
