Chapter 35 Isn’t Alice talkative at all?

 In the end, Ringer still didn't ask about that idea, mainly because it was pointless to ask. After all, Alice couldn't give him a clear reply: Yes, that's right, that's what my fellow Earthlings think.
p>

To be honest, Lin Ge still couldn't believe how dare she answered like this.

The cloud whale that fell from the sky was covered by the heavy rain and was not discovered by the local residents or the aliens in the Xugen Swamp. Everyone waited quietly in the hotel until the rain stopped. Ringer decided to go out to find clues to the next girl's queen. The purpose

The place is the largest city on the Silkilia Peninsula: City of Cold Nights, Qiyu Port.

In fact, after learning from the landlady that the Church of Judgment, the headquarters of the Judgment Holy See, is located in Qiyu Port, the young man has given up the idea of ​​going to that city. He thinks that he does not have the courage and fearlessness of Alice to dare to unite with the church.

Inquiring about information openly and openly under his nose.

If this behemoth is angered, I don't know if the cloud whale controlled by Ieta can receive a cannon. After careful thinking and evaluation, the young man finally came to the conclusion that it is a bit difficult.

So his initial idea was to go to several small cities along the coast, such as the "City of Cold Lanterns" Martial and other places to inquire about the news, pay attention to the latest trends in the alliance of religious groups, and by the way ask if there are any on the Sicilia Peninsula

Stories similar to the "March Search Diary" in Rosting City or the Legend of the Wind in Avion City, maybe there are clues to the next girl's queen hidden in them.

However, a piece of very unfortunate news is that the thread of Saint Xalia's fate is pointing in the direction of Qiyu Port.

Guided by fate, young people have to give up the idea of ​​​​escape and stand up to face the city that was once considered full of violence, crime and darkness.

It is said that to this day, some people still think that it is the most dangerous place in the world, especially the vast expanse of sand sea or the chaotic sea area with surging wind and thunder.

Because malice from human beings is the purest, undisguised evil in the world.

……

"Those are all shameful slanders!"

On the car seat, a thin, unshaven, middle-aged man dressed like an ordinary farmer raised his riding crop angrily, waving it in the air and making a crisp crackling sound, mixed with his somewhat sharp accusation: "Since I was naked,

From the time when I climbed the fig tree by the village square and dug out wild pheasant eggs, to now the great-great-great-grandmother of that nest of pheasants is about to pass away. The opinions of you outsiders have never changed! Your views on this area have never changed.

The prejudice is so deep, it’s even deeper than the discrimination against us country folks like us by the tall old men in Elfland! I can’t stand it, oh no, I mean, of course not!”

Having said this, he waved his riding crop in an imposing manner, showing a resolute resistance and awe-inspiring dignity.

Two aardvark beasts, which look a bit like wild boars but have shorter manes and docile tempers, pull the cart and walk leisurely on the muddy country road after the rain. From time to time they stop and open their mouths to chew.

Bite the lush weeds on both sides of the road and savor the sweet smell of dew and green grass leaves after the rain.

This new breed is a cross between Macmian domestic pigs and Buck wild boar, a specialty of the Scycilia Peninsula. It is only bred on a large scale in the territory of Motosh. It is widely praised for its obedience and tolerance. Not only

It can be raised as a carnivorous species, and sometimes it can temporarily perform physical tasks such as pulling carts and plowing fields. However, it is not so suitable because no matter what they do, whether eating, drinking, littering, or working, they always look the same.

He looks leisurely and at ease, not very controlled by others, just like the two aardvark beasts pulling the cart in front of him. If he can catch up with half of the distance covered by a horse-drawn carriage or even an ox-cart in half an hour, it will be considered very fast. In this way

Their personalities are in sharp contrast to their owners.

A pile of thick fodder is bundled on a simple cart, as well as various agricultural and sideline products: milk, eggs, cheese, fresh vegetables, chicken feathers, pig bristles, etc.

In addition, there are also several special passengers sitting there.

"Oh? So, the situation now is different from the past?" Alice asked enthusiastically, sitting on the hay pile, next to the expressionless Ringer and the helpless Saint Xalia.
Considering that this trip may have certain risks and it would be inconvenient to bring too many people, Linge asked the other girls to stay on Yunjing Sky Island to wait for news about him, and it was enough for him and Saint Xalia to go and find out the information.

But a certain golden-haired maid shamelessly came up to her, saying that she could certainly be of some help and asking Ringer to take her with him.

Ling Ge didn't agree, so she went to Saint Xalia to act coquettishly, to Maidien to tease her, and to complain to the boss's wife. Although Ling Ge didn't know the use of complaining to the boss's wife, she had to admit that she was indeed upset by her quarrel.

Confused, I agreed on the spur of the moment. There is no use regretting it afterward. Now I can only pray secretly that she will not cause any trouble to me.

Alice really didn't cause any trouble for him, but she was too talkative.

After the three people left the Cloud Whale Sky Island, they followed the thread of fate and searched for a place where humans could live. They soon found a small village with only about forty households, where they planted olive trees and figs.

They make a living by raising pheasants and aardvark trees, as well as a few fields growing oats. Mr. Gweli, the only farmer in the village who owns a cart, is planning to go to the city to sell fodder and various agricultural and sideline products.

Ge asked him to give him and others a ride. In return, he reluctantly took out two 1-penny coins from his increasingly shriveled wallet.

For the sake of these 12 guineas (the guinea is the basic unit in the Metosh monetary system, which is equivalent to the penny in the monetary system of the Kingdom of Great Brita. Thanks to the power of the latter, the 1 penny denomination of the Breton coin

It can be exchanged for 6 guineas. This is also the only place where Ringo can realize his superiority as a national of Great Brita (other than language) abroad.) Mr. Gwilly readily agreed to their request and had no doubts.

This seemingly strange pair of master and servant call themselves "travelers".

Of course, this is because he cannot see Saint Shalia.

Then...Alice started chatting with him.

After all, the Golden Retriever Maid has always been an outgoing and talkative person, and Mr. Gwilly seemed to be very keen on expressing himself. The topics they chatted about ranged from "the weather in the Kingdom of Great Britta" to "the maid's job"

, and from "Why do wild pheasants build nests in trees" to "Can olives be eaten raw?", they were chatting very enthusiastically even though they were not on the same channel, which made Ringer and Saint Xalia who were listening a little bit a little confused.

Numb.

The reason why Mr. Gweli had such an excited reaction just now was because Alice asked him a question that everyone who travels to the Sicilia Peninsula would ask: "Is Qiyu Port really that bad?

?"

"That was all hundreds of years ago!" Mr. Gweli raised his tone: "It's naturally different now! Of course, I'm not talking about those damned bandits, robbers, pickpockets, profiteers, and gangsters.

The police, rapists, drug addicts and gangsters... have all disappeared, but it is said that they no longer dare to be as arrogant as before.

"If I had lived several centuries ago, I would definitely agree with you, because at that time, bandits and bandits dared to appear on the road openly, stopping passing business travelers to collect tolls, and the government troops only needed to collect enough protection fees.

They turned a blind eye; pickpockets in the city did not run away after a failed robbery, but turned around and punched the person being stolen, and then robbed them openly; gangsters competed for territory in every street, and the dead people would be pulled in and even rats would not dare to go out.

In his black workshop, all the corpse oil was squeezed out and used to make candles, so at that time, candles were the cheapest products in the shops in Qiyu Port, a hundred times cheaper than if I gave you a ride now...

"I heard this from my grandfather, and my grandfather heard it from his grandfather. His grandfather only lived for more than 40 years because he was stabbed by a gangster on the street when he was young.

On the ribs, the lungs were injured, leaving serious sequelae. Do you know why my grandfather’s grandfather was involved in a gang fight? Of course it was to protect my grandmother’s grandmother, who was only 17 years old at the time, but

It is said that it was because of this incident that the famous rich lady fell in love with my grandfather’s grandfather..."

"Oh, I see, that's it." Alice listened attentively, nodding her head from time to time, and making a sound of sudden realization. For those who didn't know, she thought she was listening to a professional lecture given by a university professor.

Ringer: "..."

He retracted his preface: Mr. Gweli is obviously much more talkative than Alice.
