Chapter 720 The old man who rode a donkey
The teleportation feels not very good.
Especially the Druid's teleportation spell, the first thing I think about is not the comfort of the "passenger", but the environmental protection of the spell principle. That will be even more uncomfortable!
Charlotte felt like he was stuffed into the drum washing machine for a long time, and then was squeezed out by the drain pipe.
Even though he was as strong as his physique, he felt dizzy and could not stand. It was Luna who had already squatted on the ground. It was Artoria, and the governor was fine, but Alice was not at all.
"It's obvious that compared to the uncomfortable teleportation of Old Rabbit Pea, Rudy's is even worse! Vomit~" Charlotte held the tree and slowed down for a long time, and Alice gently knocked his back on the side.
"Let me see where we are now?" Charlotte opened the small map, then narrowed it down, compared the map where we copied from Yad before, and Charlotte found his location.
"We will be able to arrive at the city of Ecstasy at noon. It seems that we can catch up with tomorrow's harvest festival."
Charlotte and the others were teleported to a forest, surrounded by a big tree that was embraced by three people. It seemed that this was the teleportation point set by Rudy.
Although it was just early October, the north has entered late autumn. The ground is covered with thick fallen leaves, and from time to time, golden leaves fall like butterflies.
The forest is deep and the trees are dense, and the road conditions are very bad. Charlotte can only drive a tricycle at a very slow speed.
But they were lucky. They found a dirt road in about an hour. It seemed that there were villages or towns nearby, and people often walked on this road. Judging from the vegetation conditions, the abortion was pretty good.
Charlotte simply measured it: the line segment between two points is the shortest, but it is straight towards the Ecstasy City. Most of the roads are dense forests or hills. Not only is the speed not fast, but it is particularly bumpy. This is because the driver is his own druid.
If you can find a way that you don’t have a situation, it should be very fast even though you go a little far. Moreover, Ecstasy is the capital of Nonaville. In a town near Ecstasy, it is impossible to have no direct roads!
The front of the car turned onto the path and walked for more than twenty minutes. Charlotte's magic crow discovered a village.
Charlotte and others didn't want to be shocked, so they put away their tricycles and walked towards the village.
Because it is not far from Ecstasy City, it is a very mature and safe area. Therefore, this village does not have log walls built like those gathering places built in the wild.
At this time, the forest had left, and the terrain turned into open but slightly undulating hills.
At the end of September and early October, the dealer in the fields had already received the granary, with only lonely scarecrows in the geography.
This is a rare time for a year when there is no shortage of food and leisure. You can see from afar that some farmers are taking care of their yards, repairing fences or repairing their roofs.
The villagers were quite alert to the foreigners. They were all wary of their eyes, but they never put down the tools in their hands.
However, although the governor in the team looked quite scary, Artoria and Luna were both very friendly and charming, and there was a little girl (Alice) in the team, which made the villagers relax a lot.
"Membersman, how can I get to the Ecstasy City?" Charlotte regretted it after saying that.
When he talks about fellow villagers, he can't help but want to take away everything except one needle and one thread!
The man who was asked about Charlotte was a middle-aged man. Their house was a very sturdy wooden house. The inner layer of this wooden house was made of wooden boards, with adobe walls used in the middle, and then the outside was covered with log insulation. It was a characteristic building in the north.
In the window of the wooden house, some thin mistress was hugging a pair of children tightly. She was a little nervous.
The man felt a little relieved when he saw Charlotte's good attitude.
There are mixed experiences among adventurers, some are righteous and some are morally corrupt.
Those guys do a lot of things to steal, and usually if it is not too much, others will do whatever they can. After all, you can't just cut a chicken at the entrance of the village, and you can't just chase the whole village, right?
In fact, adventurers are not welcomed in the eyes of many ordinary people. After all, who would give up a stable life but go to the knife to lick blood?
No matter how hard a normal human is, he can break through to bronze. Such strength is unguaranteed in adventure.
So the public's opinion is: Who will take risks for good people?
"You walk along this path and you will see an official road before noon. People come and go on the official road, which is very safe. Follow the official road and go north to the Enchanting City."
Maybe it was because Charlotte and his group were quite pleasing to the eye, and the man also advised: "I suggest you find a place to spend the night in the afternoon. If you walk, you will not be able to reach the Ecstasy City before the sun sets."
In this world, the city gate will be closed as the sun sets. So even if you arrive at night, you can only live outside the city gate.
It seems that this man has seen some of the world. You should know that many farmers who have never left their homes in their lives speak very unorganizedly.
This man can clearly guide the way and think about the speed and progress of walking, which is already a figure.
"Thank you for your guidance. May Mother Earth fool you." Charlotte wiped his hand and placed five copper coins on the railing. This is a reward. If you use it to buy black bread, it will be enough for the four-small family to eat for several days.
As for Mother Earth, it was not that Charlotte had faith. It was mainly because he saw the wooden statue of Mother Earth in the house from the opened window.
There are many farmers like this who believe in Mother Earth.
...
Charlotte and the others set out on the road again.
Of course, it would not be like the man said, sitting 11th (legs) to the Ecstasy City.
Although Charlotte is not racing, he has a horse!
He and the governor took out the carriage from the semi-plane, and sat on the shafts on both sides, rushing the carriage leisurely...
Holding a small whip in his hand, he was moving forward swaying on the carriage. Charlotte couldn't help but remember some past events.
When he was young, he grew up in his grandmother's house in the countryside, and he often did things like driving carriages and riding donkeys.
At that time, the donkey was too tall, so he led it to the wall and rode the donkey from the wall.
It’s really a blessing from the God of Out of the Context!
Since I grew up, I rarely see donkeys and horses in rural areas, but there are more tractors.
"Time flies and never returns, the past can only be recalled..." Charlotte hummed softly.
(Maybe most of the book friends have never rode a donkey or drove a carriage. I haven't even heard of this song. I'm old...)
The speed of the carriage was very fast, especially as a druid, Charlotte made the horse go east and dare not go west.
After a while, they got on the official road.
If the countryside road is made because there are too many people walking, it is stepped on. Then the official road is specially built.
The national strength of Nonaville is still strong, and there are no large-scale riots or foreign enemies, so the political situation is relatively peaceful.
Therefore, the road conditions of this official road leading directly to the capital are really good.
Large pieces of gravel are baseted with sand and gravel. After several layers of compaction, the road becomes very sturdy and durable.
The road surface should be more than 20 centimeters higher than the flat ground to avoid being soaked in water. The road surface is very flat, and even hard wheels with iron-covered wood will not feel particularly bumpy.
If you want to be rich, you must first build roads. At least the transportation is quite good.
Another hour and a half later, the city in the distance was already looming.
Ecstasy is a city located on the plains. When it was first built, it was a construction master who looked for dwarves, designed according to the scale of the capital, and added several subsequent expansions. Ecstasy is now a behemoth.
According to Charlotte's visual observation, the city wall is twenty meters high, exceeding the height of five floors. It is built with specially treated boulders, making it look extremely thick and sturdy.
"This city is really good!" Charlotte praised.
"Hahaha! That's of course, welcome to the paradise of men in the Northland! I'm Ronald..." The person who spoke was a businessman in front of Charlotte and the others.
The old man was very talkative, because the team waiting for the inspection to enter the city was 100 meters long, so he and Charlotte started chatting.
