As a guest, Loren Hill naturally didn't have to kneel down and kowtow like Yu Luchen. She picked up three incense sticks, lit them on the candle, and bowed respectfully with the other guests who came together, and then put the incense in the Inside the tripod.
In the lobby, there are many old people from Tuo Shi Tang. They are very senior. Although their strength may not be enough for some juniors, but because these people are still there, Tuo Shi Tang can still have a unified command core.
However, after all, such a situation would not last long, Tuo Shi Tang could not be without a sect master for a long time, and their command could not last too long.
After the worship, some guests will leave after a small meeting, while some VIPs and guests with deep relationships will rest in the accommodation arranged in the Tuosi Hall.
Because Loren Hill was explained by the hall master Yu Luchen, the staff of the main hall arranged her to a quiet residence. Most of them were women, and there were few men.
"Miss Jialan, let's rest here first, the fellow student you are looking for, let's go through the roster in the main hall, and we will probably know where it is tomorrow." Several colleagues told Lorraine Hill.
"Thank you, then I will trouble you."
After that, Lorraine Hill took a walk in the courtyard and the hills.
This shore is larger than a small town, and it is the residence of Tuo Shi Tang. There are about 100,000 people living here, and many of them rely on Tuo Shitang for a living.
Some are accountants and helpers in the shops and branches of Tuo Shi Tang, and some are members of the Chamber of Commerce who build boats, sew clothes, and even weapons for Tuo Shi Tang. Although these people do not directly belong to Tuo Shi Tang, there are many It is a peripheral organization with a deep relationship with Tuo Shi Tang.
Every door-to-door is a fairly large organization. Although there may be several thousand or even less than a few hundred formal disciples, the affiliates and factions that surround them are enough to span several continents and involve a lot of people. Although Tuo Shi Tang is not a door-to-door, it is also a fairly large faction.
Looking down from the pavilion on the hill, you can see the wide river below. The water is shining brightly, and bursts of broken light are reflected in the sun. The river is full of boats of various sizes. shore, and then dock the ship to the designated place.
Now the two shores are full of boats from all over the world, and people walk up and down from time to time, which can be said to be lively.
Just as Roland Hill was sitting in the pavilion enjoying the river view, the sound of light footsteps came slowly from behind.
"Is this sister here to enjoy the scenery too?" A greeting sounded from behind.
Roland Hill turned back and saw a lady dressed in white silk brocade walking over, followed by four maids.
"Yes, just arrived, come and sit here for a while." Roland Hill nodded, then touched Dai Ju, who was squatting in his arms.
Now this little guy is about the size of two hens, crouching on the girl's lap like a fluffy pom-pom.
"Is this a girl raised? It looks so cute." She was surprised by the girl's appearance, but she said about the fat bird in the girl's arms.
"I raised it, um, this guy is just a little lazy." Roland Hill stretched his hand into the feathers, felt the little guy's fat body, and shook his head slightly.
"Hehe, it's not a bad thing. In the past, my husband gave me a puppy, and it was cute when I was young. Unfortunately, when I grew up, because my temperament was too lively, I couldn't stay by my side. Later, I simply gave it to a friend. "She walked into the pavilion and sat down slowly, while the maids behind her stood outside the pavilion.
"Can you get close and touch it?" The lady seemed to be fascinated by cute things, and she looked at the girl in the white dress with hope.
"Well... OK." Although a little surprised, the girl nodded.
"Chirp."
After Dai Ju heard this, she opened her sleeping eyes, looked at the lady in front of her, and looked up at Lorraine Hill above her head. She moved her feet and continued to squat down.
Looking at it like this, it seems a little unhappy, thinking that he can't touch it casually, but after all, it was Roland Hill's words, and it was not easy to refute, so he had to move his body and express it.
"Hehe, it seems that it is still a little temperamental." The lady smiled and stopped extending her hand.
Then, the lady also turned her gaze to the scenery outside the pavilion, looking at the lively river scene below.
"Where is my sister from? She seems to be very interested in the scenery here."
"Me, I'm probably from Min Zezhou, but I've stayed in the Western Continent for a long time, and this is the first time I've come to Nanfengzhou."
"It seems that the girl's life is also very exciting." The lady praised a little.
"Why do you say that?" Lorraine Hill blinked.
"Because a girl with looks like you is not something ordinary people can do alone."
"That's it." Roland Hill recalled his own experience, and it seemed to be the case.
"If you are a young girl in the dynasty, if you have a good background, you will be surrounded by a group of servants and maids since childhood. Although you don't have to do anything by yourself, it also reduces some of your freedom." She explained briefly.
"Before I married my husband, I hardly ever went out of the house, and occasionally I just went to school with girls of the same age, and there were almost all girls there."
"After getting married, because my husband traveled around in business, I also traveled around. Fortunately, most of my business is shipped by ship, so it won't be uncomfortable without the bumps of the car and horse."
"After the baby was born, because the family's business was getting bigger and bigger, I had to help out with some things, and I experienced more later."
"The atmosphere of Nanfengzhou, compared with the continents within the dynasty, is quite broad and likeable. Occasionally you can see some women doing business here, but in the Zhou County within the dynasty, this will be despised by others. Even say some very bad things." She shook her head slightly, feeling the difference in the environment.
"But I seem to have seen some women who hold positions in important institutions." Loren Hill thought of the friend from the Marigold Hanging Flower House.
"My sister should be talking about the disciples of the great faction, that's different from ordinary people," she explained.
"I've been to many Zhou counties. Although people don't clearly state or distinguish them, they roughly divide people into three categories. The first category is normal men who work at home, go out or do business. The second category is ordinary men. Women, people usually have to help the family from a young age. When you grow up, you get married and serve your husband and take care of the children. Like me, even if the family background is good, there are many restrictions. Be dignified or something."
"The third category is different. If you are an official disciple of a major faction, you can travel with your sword at will, and the government will give you some respect, even if you are a woman, you will not be despised by others. , outsiders will treat you the same as those who are famous and will not treat you with contempt."
"So, for a long time, I have been envious of people like that. Since I had a child, I also thought about which major school to send her to study in the future, to see if she could be admitted."
"But I also know that some things also depend on fate. One of my sisters was also an inner disciple of the big faction back then, but unfortunately the child didn't inherit her talent. In the end, she had to go to the side branch, but it was not bad."
"How does my sister feel in the West, is it much different from ours?"
"The Western Continent? If it was before, it would be about the same. Generally, only the children of wealthy nobles and businessmen can obtain a good education. In terms of monopoly of knowledge, it is even worse than the East." Roland Hill shook his head.
In the Eastern Dynasty, even poor people could rely on hard work and scramble to enter a faction such as Tuo Shi Tang, and then earn a share of the world, but ordinary people in the Western Continent can't get extraordinary knowledge at all, and they don't know how Practice, condense the extraordinary core.
Perhaps because of this, in terms of the density and number of transcendents, Eastern dynasties have always been larger than those in the West. Factions, large and small, are not only the pedagogical inheritors of transcendent knowledge, but also specialized organizations. Some of them were Caogang, some were doctors, and some were dyers. Such an organization of learning and practical integration filled many gaps under the dynastic governance.
"However, the West has changed a lot now, and I can't tell you a lot of it. If you have the opportunity, you can go there and take a look."
"Haha, thank you sister for your suggestion. I think it will take a few more years before the child can go far."
After that, the two sat in the pavilion and talked for a long time. The lady introduced the persimmon tea, ice cracked porcelain, etc., which are specialty products of Nanfengzhou, to Roland Hill. She said that she could buy some when she left and give them to friends. .
Because Nanfengzhou is the main business point of the East and West Continents, in the face of the strong demand from the West Continent, many porcelain workshops simply migrated here.
"Ice-cracked porcelain, the color is empty and blue. After being released from the oven, it will make a continuous crisp sound, like wind chimes, and the cracked pattern at the bottom of the enamel is even and beautiful, like ice flowers, which is very attractive."
"Speaking of which, my husband went to the Bingcizong branch here this morning. It is estimated that he will bring back a batch of good samples when he returns in the evening. My sister lives in the yard of which number, and I will have someone give it to you when I leave. Send a box."
"This... Then thank you sister." Roland Hill wanted to refuse, but he didn't want to live up to the lady's kindness and enthusiasm, so he nodded and said the yard where he rested.
It's good to give her a gift when it's down. Speaking of which, I also brought some special products from the Western Continent, and it's useless to put it in the storage space anyway.
After the situation in the empire stabilized, she went to many places. Sometimes she saw good things and bought a lot, which gradually accumulated. Of course, the most items in it were from the Jade Forest.
Not only Vestena, the Elf Queen, but also Ayhekatri gave a lot of things when she left.
"My name is Ran Yinan, what's your sister's name?"
When it came time to part, the lady asked the girl's name. Seeing that, it wasn't intentional, but it was only at this moment that she really remembered.
"Call me Jialan." Roland Hill looked at the lady's innocent look and replied with a smile.
"Good name~" She gave a thumbs up, then covered her mouth and smiled again.
After that, the two went down the mountain and walked together for a while, and finally parted rather reluctantly.
"See you next time~" Ran Yinan waved and walked down the hill.
Looking at the lady leading her maid to a distant courtyard, Loren Hill lamented that such a person is rare. Even though he has been married for many years, he still maintains a naive and romantic feeling, sharing a lot with others without utilitarianism and prejudice. matter.
After staying with this lady all morning, Lorraine Hill was in a much better mood. This time, he learned a lot of things that he didn't know before.
The Plantagenet Dynasty is both conservative and open. Conservative lies in the dynastic government. There are many rules and scruples. Openness lies in various factions in the world. They compete with each other, innovate, continue to inherit and develop, and keep the people alive. The existence of the dynastic system also filled many places that could not be taken care of under the dynastic system, so that order exists and the world is not in chaos.
Even in Min Zezhou, in the remote areas in the swamps and mountains, there are still caravans patrolling periodically, and goods are exchanged. If not, the world is generally in a state of stability and stability.
'What about the prosperous dynasty? '
The girl stood on the hillside near the river, watching the countless lights and boats on both sides of the river at dusk, the sound of silk and bamboo, incense and smoke, a bustling scene, and whispered softly.
the next day.
After Roland Hill got up, he went to the window, washed his face with clean water, and looked at himself in the mirror, with blue hair and golden eyes, a red scale on his forehead, exuding a soft halo. , and then the water mist was slightly swirling, and there was also a shallow water mist in the eyes, and there seemed to be a faint golden-red light and shadow swimming like a swimming fish.
It's already Dragon Sequence 5, the girl whispered softly.
Dragon Sequence 5: Water Mist Red Ray, in the Hidden Dragon Road, is a professional agency of the Dragon Sacrifice faction. If it is outside, a fifth-order dragon witch like a girl can serve as a festival in a county, and control and control the local dragon veins.
However, if Roland Hill does such a thing, even the dragons of a continent or even a country can guide the regulation. Her own talent, the blessing of the crown, and the status of the Golden Sparrow Witch conferred by the dynasty will greatly increase her presence here. capacity.
After this time, let's go to Luojing. Speaking of which, it's time to meet the senior Chifeng. I don't know whether the senior witch is out of the customs now, or is still dormant as before.
Walking out of the door, Roland Hill walked down the stairs along the hill. Occasionally, other female guests could be seen along the way. At this time, the drum sounded inside the mountain gate of Tuo Shi Tang, and soon Lively again.
Compared with yesterday, there are more boats on both sides of the strait today, and there are already boats from Tuo Shitang waiting on the river. There are ten people rowing on each boat, and one of them stands with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance. mountain gate.
On the bank under the mountain gate, old men in black and red clothes stood. They first burned incense to sacrifice to the sky, and then one stepped forward and announced loudly.
"Tuo lion rides the waves, and is unparalleled in power. If you want to convince the brothers in the door, you should use your own skills!"
After he finished speaking, he inserted a big golden lion-bite spear into the middle of the high platform, causing bursts of shouts from the shore and the river.
"Tuo lion treads the waves, unparalleled in power!"
"Tuo lion treads the waves, unparalleled in power!"
"Tuo lion treads the waves, unparalleled in power!"
"Tuo lion treads the waves, unparalleled in power!"
Thousands of members of Tuo Shi Tang gathered here. They were on both sides of the mountain, looking at the figures on the river all ready to go, waiting for the final winner to be decided today as the new head of Tuo Shi Tang. , he must rely on his own strength to defeat his powerful peers under the attention of all the people, so that he can gain everyone's approval and become the new 'Lion King'.
The lion rides on the waves, and is equally majestic. Only the most staunch and majestic lion can lead this group of arrogant people.
In this way, the drums rang again, and the boats on the river began to row. As they moved forward, the two began to approach, and then the candidates on their respective boats would jump up and fight. Competing with the swaying boat, falling into the water and losing, the winner continues to advance, until the last person reaches the shore of the mountain gate, takes charge of the lion biting the jintuo spear, and becomes the new generation of gatekeepers.
Standing under the willow tree on the shore, Roland Hill looked into the distance, and finally saw the familiar figure from the past.
Yu Baiqiu, now holding a long knife like an oar, stepped on the boat, fighting with his opponent in a splash of golden water waves.
The roar of the gold is endless, the water boat is ups and downs, you come and go, and waves of water mist are set off.
Compared with the past, Yu Baiqiu now has more beards and cheeks on his face, and the twisting of his arm muscles like gold and bronze burst out with waves of strong air, like a mountain.
Uncle Yu is also in Sequence 6.
War Sequence 6: Jin Lilie Spear, even in the sixth rank, is a very difficult position to promote. It seems that he has passed the most difficult level.
"Victory!" With an angry shout, Yu Baiqiu swung the big curved spear and slammed into the opponent's blade. Then the opponent flew into the water with the knife and declared defeat.
After that, he kept his pace, jumped several times on the river, and rushed to each opponent again.
There is more than one scene like this. There are nearly a thousand boats on the river, flowing down the river, and the masters of Tuo Shitang on the boat come and go. The duel is extremely fierce. Each of them represents one continent and one county. The branch forces jumped up in the collision of the boats, fought on the deck and the water surface, decided one winner, and then continued to move forward.
Just as many generals, hall masters, and rudder protagonists in the Tuo Lion Hall were racing by the hour, a group of special rowing boats also rowed from the upstream.
"Haha, such a grand event, how can I be absent." These people are members of the Panlong Association, and they are standing on the bow of the boat in Tsing Yi with dragon patterns.
"My Panlong Association will also send a hundred people to compete. If you win, you won't have any requirements, you will only be a member of the association. If you lose, you will give up all of the seven continents of Mianlei to your faction. You can see how it is! Haha!"
Although he proposed, the other party didn't care about Tuo Shitang's answer at all, and also sent boats, carrying masters of the Panlong Association, to rush into the Tuo Lion's boating formation.
The anger of the two factions also reached the highest at this moment.
