Soon, a carriage pulled by red horses stopped next to Ling Feng. The owner of the carriage was an old man who looked older. Ling Feng could see the years and even the wind and frost in his life from the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. The precipitation on his face. WWw,qUAnbEn-xIaosHuo,COmWhat impressed Lingfeng quite deeply was that his smile told his cheerfulness. At this time, he asked Ling Feng: "How many of you, do you want to take a ride?"
Ling Feng subconsciously looked at himself, and then at Ling Ling beside him. When he saw her looking like a curious baby, constantly looking at everything around her, she suddenly understood that this old man driving the car He must have realized that he and others had just arrived in Mumba City, so he asked this question.
Ling Feng was happy to have a carriage to ride on. After all, it is not convenient for a monster like Bai Jiahei to fly in this city. The old man in front of him seemed to be a very good person.
"Okay, let's take us for a walk around the main streets in the city first." Ling Feng said to the old man driving the car.
Anyway, Ling Feng was in no hurry to find a place to rest. It was necessary to get to know the city and check out the surrounding environment first. Now that he has arrived at the Kingdom of Gaochang, especially now that he has entered the city of Mengba, Lingfeng feels that the sense of identification with the Kingdom of Gaochang and the intimacy with the familiar environment in his heart are not so urgent for a while. . It was like a very anxious mood was suddenly released. Ling Feng faced Mengba City and didn't know what it felt like.
However, now that you are here, you might as well understand it first. What others say is never as true as what you see with your own eyes.
Ling Feng, Ling Ling, and Christina got into the old man's carriage together. It is the most common carriage in cities on the continent. It is pulled by a low-level monster or pure animal in front, and the driver sits on the frame behind the monster. Drive and control the car.
And behind the driver. It was not a carriage like a carriage traveling in the wild, but a structure somewhat similar to the rickshaw in Ling Feng's impression. Above is a canopy that can protect you from wind and rain. Underneath is a stool for people to sit on, the surface of which is covered with thick gauze.
Ling Feng sat in the middle, and Ling Ling and Christina sat on both sides. The three of them could enjoy the scenery on both sides of the street while the carriage was moving.
Most of the buildings are still made of stones. There are only a few wooden pavilions. Ling Feng was a little strange. According to his habitual thinking, he always felt that the further east he went on the Taikoo Continent. The architectural style is closer to the ancient times in Ling Feng's impression. Moreover, until the time of the Kingdom of Northern Ireland, Ling Feng was still gradually firming up his guess.
Why did things go wrong when we arrived at the Gaochang Kingdom
"Old sir, what are the special places in Mumba City?" Ling Feng asked the coachman. That's a lot. "The old man was obviously more talkative. While driving the red horse, he answered Ling Feng's question, "The most distinctive part of Mumba City is the city wall. Most people who are new to Mumba. I am always attracted by this tall and thick city wall. "
"It's nothing." Ling Ling murmured softly on the side, "The walls of the mercenary capital are also very tall..."
"It turns out that a few of them came from the mercenary capital." The old man said with a smile, but it was because they were driving a car. Didn't look back. Instead, he continued, "The distance is a bit far. However, even an old man knows that the mercenary capital is a super city and is better than Momba City. It is natural."
"Old sir, don't listen to the nonsense of children." Ling Feng comforted Ling Ling for a while and said, "The mercenary capital is geographically located between mountains and hills, so even the tall city walls do not give people It feels very abrupt. But Mumba City stands on the plains. At first glance, it will definitely give people a strong visual impact."
"Well, sir, you are really discerning." The old man driving the car praised and said, "Many people only know that the city walls of Mumba are beautiful, tall and imposing, but that is only superficial. As for The reason, even as an old man like me, who has been driving in Mumba for more than ten years, is not very clear.… "
"Brother, why do you look taller on the plains?" Ling Ling asked gently in Ling Feng's ear.
"That's because of the contrast." Ling Feng replied with a smile, "Don't understand?" Seeing Ling Ling, he still shook his head. Ling Feng looked around and saw Christina only looking at the two of them. After asking and answering questions, there was no sign of getting involved. I couldn't help but feel a little moved. Then I pointed at the pedestrians on the street, then pointed at myself, and said: "Do you think it's the people on the street who are good-looking, or my brother?" nice?"
"Well, of course my brother is good-looking." Ling Ling almost didn't look at the people on the street and quickly came up with her answer.
Ling Feng was very satisfied with Ling Ling's answer, but then he pointed at Christina and asked, "Which one is better looking, brother or sister?"
"Hmm.----" Ling Ling tilted her head this time and pondered for a while before replying in a low voice, "Pretty sister is better looking.
As soon as Ling Ling said these words, not only Ling Feng's face showed a slight smile, but also the old man driving the car in front also laughed out loud "haha".
When Christina heard this, her face, which had not changed much in expression, also showed a teasing smile, and the look she looked at Ling Feng was quite smiling. It wasn't until Ling Feng glanced at her meaningfully that Christina realized that the reason why Ling Feng asked this was just because he saw that her expression had always remained indifferent and calm, and he wanted to see a smile on her face. That’s all.
For a moment, there seemed to be a small wave in Christina's heart.
Fortunately, Ling Feng is continuing to educate Ling Ling: "Look, if my brother doesn't compare with his beautiful sister, you will think he is good-looking. This is comparison. ... The same is true for the city wall of Mumba City. Because it is surrounded by It’s flat land, and the area is quite wide, so its city walls naturally look higher than they actually are.”
Ling nodded, with a look of understanding.
"Sir, you are really unique in educating your sister." The old man driving the carriage said, "It's very interesting. You must be a noble, right?" Because when nobles travel, they usually have a lot of guards around them, and they wear well-dressed clothes. He wouldn't be as casual as Ling Feng is now, so the old man didn't think of this at first.
"Nobles are human beings too." Ling Feng answered casually, and then continued to ask about some of the sights of Mumba City. By the way, at the old man's suggestion, he also bought a copy of Mumba City in a trading area. map.
The entire city of Mumba is in the shape of an oval running from north to south. Lingfeng could see that to the northeast of Mumba City was the continuous Bayan Har Mountains, and to the south of the city was the sea. According to the old man driving the bus, during the hottest season every year, Mumba City will encounter several relatively large storms from the sea.
This is probably one of the reasons why most of the buildings in Mumba City are made of stone. Even though the upper part of some attics is still made of wood, it is relatively thick and atmospheric.
Ling Feng didn't expect that even after traveling to the Taikoo Continent, there would still be weather conditions like typhoons.
"By the way, old sir, why is there such a large area of ruins in this area outside the north of the city?" Ling Feng looked at the marks on the map and asked curiously. You know, the landforms of the plains around Mumba City are the best cultivation bases for crops. When Ling Feng entered the city, most of what he saw along the way was green farmland.
However, the map at this time clearly shows that about ten kilometers north of Mumba City, closer to the Bayan Har Mountains, there are actually ruins. This is very... Strange.
"Oh, you mean the area in the north of the city." Hearing this, the old man seemed to be used to it and didn't have much reaction. He said casually, "I don't know what's going on. Originally, whether it was the location or the soil and other conditions, , are all very good. The surrounding crops are also growing very well, but in those few square kilometers of land, nothing grows whatever is planted. Gradually, no one wants to plant that area."
"Oh, you can't grow any crops?" Ling Feng murmured in confusion, turned to look at Christina, and then continued to ask, "What about other crops? For example, trees and the like?"
"No," the old man driving the car said, "Now that place has almost become the garbage dump of the entire city. But..." The old man seemed to have remembered something and said, "There are two other things about that piece of land. There are two theories. One was passed down by the older generation, and the land there was once cursed by the necromancer, so nothing could be grown. The other was the former city lord who led many people to investigate, saying that there It’s not a cursed place, but the ruins of the teleportation array left over from earlier.” (Quanben Novel Website www.qUAnbEn-xIaosHuo.com)
