The next morning, the sun rose. It was a bright and sunny morning, and it seemed that some of the haze had been dispersed.
Lyu huddled next to the fire. As a 'youngster', she didn't have to think about whether her posture was elegant or not, but the feeling of being on a pirate ship became stronger in her heart. Fortunately, she had a guard named Hanhan.
"In other words, you are a royal family member of the Tallin Kingdom. When were you taken away by Qing Zhang and grew up in Bamboo Village?"
"yes."
Lyu spoke weakly, but not far away, Qifu was chopping wood to make a basket to save Lyu from the pain of being on the road.
"Your real father is going to die of old age?"
"I don't know. When I was sensible, my father was in his seventies."
"Ah ha, another ruthless person who is getting stronger with age."
Baha spoke in a saucy way. He was only 17 years old and grew up in a simple place like Zhucun. Lyu, who knew only a little about this matter, turned his head and chuckled, pretending to know everything.
"When you return to Tallinn, will it involve a fight for the throne?"
Su Xiao still doesn't know the situation of Tallinn Kingdom. His main purpose of going to Tallinn is to find the source of water.
"If the fight for the throne begins, I will be dead."
Lyu's tone was determined, as if this was an inevitable outcome.
"It's okay, we have experience with this kind of thing."
"Bird, you said strange things again."
"Don't talk nonsense first. Tell us how many brothers and sisters you have. We will plan an assassination plan. If there are too many, we will split up."
When she heard Baha's words, Lu took it as a joke at first, but after looking at Baha, she realized that the other person didn't seem to be joking, but was serious.
"You, you..."
Lyu was speechless, and Qifu who was nearby was wary, because not far away from him, a group of people were talking about how to assassinate Tallinn's royal family.
"It's useless. As long as the fight for the throne begins, I will definitely die. Tallinn's tradition is that no matter how many successors there are to the throne, only the last one who dies can inherit the crown and throne from the old king."
Lyu told the cruel tradition of the Tallin Kingdom. No matter how many princes and princesses there are, only one person can inherit the crown and throne after death. From what Lyu said, the crown seems to be higher than the throne, which is very confusing.
"This tradition is so wonderful. Will your family become extinct?"
"No, it has never become extinct. When I heard about this from my grandfather...the patriarch, I thought the same thing, wouldn't the Adri royal family become extinct? It's so ridiculous, but the result is that the Adri royal family has been going extinct to this day.
Even though they are not dead, I am still one of them. My other name is Adri Bev, which doesn’t sound good, so I call me Lyu.”
Lyu's eyes were full of disgust for the Tallin Kingdom and the Adri Royal Family, with undisguised disgust. She didn't even want to use her former name, but preferred to use the name given to her by the clan leader, Lyu.
"Adri Bev, that's a very feminine name."
"Do you think I look like a woman?"
Lyu was 'shocked'. She was sitting in front of the fire with her legs crossed, holding a burnt wooden stick with half-eaten grilled fish skewered on it.
"No, I was possessed by a sand sculpture just now, don't worry about it."
Bach's flirtatious words sometimes have a positive effect, and Lyu is no longer as sad as before.
After hearing about the way the Adri royal family passed down the throne, Su Xiao thought of the possibility that in addition to the throne, the Adri royal family also passed down other things.
After arriving at the Tallinn Kingdom, Su Xiao needed a starting point. Originally, Liu's royal status was very good, but after learning about the way the Adri royal family inherited the throne, the royal status was a big pitfall.
Under this almost cruel inheritance of the throne, as long as there is a prince or princess who can live beyond the age of ten, there will be no fools. The fools have been eliminated long ago, and those who remain are either strong or good at tactics.
Unfortunately, there is no better starting point at the moment. Even if it is a sinkhole, he has to jump in. However, before jumping into the sinkhole, Su Xiao can throw an Apollo in first and blow up most of the sinkhole.
After simple repairs, the group set off. This time Lyu felt much more comfortable. Eminem was carrying a wooden basket on his back. Sitting in it, Lyu was even in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way.
Along the way, Su Xiao passed through many villages in the wilderness. As expected, these villages were different from Bamboo Village. The villagers in these villages all wore linen clothes of a single color, and basically used pottery and wooden forks. The richer ones used iron dishes.
fork.
After two days of traveling, a port city appeared ahead. To reach the Kingdom of Tallinn, you need to take a boat across the sea. If everything goes well, you can reach the border of the Kingdom of Tallinn after two days of sailing on the sea.
At the port, various three-masted sailing ships docked here, smelling of sweat, and bare-chested workers were carrying goods. Maritime trade was a very profitable business.
The Kingdom of Tallinn mainly produces timber, copper, iron, tobacco, cheap weapons, various minerals, etc.
The output of Shengshou Kingdom is different. It mainly produces cotton, cloth, exquisite ornaments and clothing, gold sand, weapons used by the strong, various spices, various minerals, etc.
The difference in resource output between the two countries has given businessmen opportunities. The sea area between the two countries is called the Devil's Sea. As long as goods can be transported across this sea, the profit will be more than ten times or even dozens of times.
I don’t know how many people got rich suddenly, and I don’t know how many people died because of it.
In this sea area, the probability of a shipwreck is over 70%. It is this danger that makes the profits exaggeratedly high.
This sea is like a whispering devil, constantly tempting people to sail out to sea. There are no treasures on the sea, no romantic stories, but only real profits and rampant pirates.
The fastest is two days and the slowest is six months. The latter is a record set by a ruthless captain. Once you lose your way at sea, you will be far away from reaching the Kingdom of Tallinn.
The salty sea breeze came to her face. Su Xiao was looking for a suitable ship on the dock. She must find an experienced captain, otherwise she would have to take an 'ice ship' to Tallinn.
After asking several captains, they were all confident, but their brand-new ships showed that they were all fools who took risks under the trend of profit.
After searching for nearly half an hour, an old man with a wrinkled face, a long cigarette bag in his mouth, and no more than five teeth appeared in Su Xiao's sight.
“How much does it cost to go to Tallinn?”
"Three hundred gold pounds, or two hundred coins."
The two currencies the old man mentioned represent the Kingdom of Tallinn and the Kingdom of Shengshou respectively. The currencies of the two large countries are common to each other and are also common to all small countries.
"Pay directly in gold."
"That's best."
The gap-toothed old man smiled, and the teeth he showed were yellow and black. His three-masted ship was a bit old, and the hulls on both sides were covered with barnacles, which meant that the ship often went to sea.
After loading the cargo, the sailors on the ship pulled up the underwater anchor, lowered the mainsail with several holes in it, and set sail.
Liu stood on the front deck, looking at this scene with novel eyes. She felt that some of her dusty memories had been awakened.
"It's so beautiful, the sea is like the mother of all things."
Amid Liu's smile, the ship slowly set sail. She spread her arms and felt the sea breeze blowing in her face.
An hour later, the style of the painting changed suddenly. Liu was hunched over, with his hands on the side of the ship, his face turned pale, and he felt seasick.
"Ugh~"
Lyu felt like she was going to die. Obviously, her mother of the sea was not gentle to her, and gave her a big mouth that represented the mother of the sea.
