Not long after bidding farewell to Night Spirit, Loran Hill was about to set off.
"Will you, Miko-sama, go to Nanfengzhou first?"
After learning of Loran Hill's decision, the leader of the fleet was a little surprised, but he quickly accepted it. After all, the affairs of the witch were not something he could interfere with.
"I will report the news of your return to the East Continent to the Spring Court in a meeting. I wonder if Your Highness would mind."
"I can report this, but I hope you can talk to Officer Chun and keep it confidential for me and not publicize it."
"I understand." The man nodded, expressing his understanding. Many important people do not want their whereabouts to be disclosed.
"Well, that's it for now. Tomorrow I'll be boarding a ship bound for Linjiezhou. We'll be apart for now."
"I wish your highness a safe journey."
After leaving the Pearl Islands, Loran Hill and the people from the Tuo Shi Tang boarded a ship bound for the Twenty-two Southern Continents and set off towards the vast distance.
If the Eastern Continent where the Plantagenet Dynasty is located is drawn into a map, a rough dragon shape can be seen, and the heart of the dragon is the location of Luojing. The dragon's head is in the high mountains in the northwest, and its two wings spread out are the continuous mountain ranges in the north and southwest. The twenty-two continents in the south are located at the tail of the dragon, which is far away from Luojing.
Nanfengzhou is located at the southernmost tip of the 22 southern continents. It is also the departure and return point of another route from the East Continent to the West Continent. This route passes through the South China Sea, through the Endless Sea, and arrives at the easternmost tip of the Southern Islands. Then it moves along the route between the islands, and then turns to various ports at the southern end of the continent and enters the West Continent.
Compared with the route from Wanglong Port through the Endless Sea to Longquan Bay, this southern route is particularly longer, but the advantage is that the waves on the sea are relatively small, relatively calm and safe, and the various special outputs and goods of the Southern Islands also make many merchants willing to take this route.
In the past, every three to five years, the Plantagenet dynasty would send envoys to the southern Kingdom of Hinayue and the Redberry United Kingdom to conduct certain visits and exchanges. This is also a continuation of the story between the Five Phoenixes back then, and the friendship between two of the Five Phoenixes, Chifeng and Xuanwu.
Thanks to this route, the commerce in Nanfengzhou is particularly developed, and many people from the Western Continent live here. You can even see some Western-style buildings and customs.
The tide lapped against the side of the ship, creating a soothing ripple of water. In the dimly lit cabin bar, a bard played his harp and recounted stories of the past. Those traveling between the eastern and western continents often spent long periods at sea. During these tedious voyages, even entertainment that had previously been indifferent became lively and engaging.
The piano played very quickly, and the sound changed from being calm to becoming high-pitched.
"So, that black-faced man, clutching an eight-edged golden hammer and riding a black cloud-stepping snow-capped divine horse, leaped down the mountain. The hammer danced with such force that it made people tremble with fear and terror. Anyone who was touched was either killed or injured."
"This solved the problem. Then a young woman came out of the carriage, supported by her mother-in-law. Her voice was like an oriole and her face was as beautiful as a peach. People were bewitched by her and couldn't sleep." Having said this, the bard suddenly stopped and started drinking water.
"Get to the point, who is that girl? Is she good enough?" The other people around were addicted to listening to it, but when it suddenly stopped, they felt really itchy and uncomfortable.
"Ahem, please wait a moment, I'll take it easy." But at this moment, the bard suddenly stopped being anxious.
"Okay, okay, okay, here, go on." He threw a handful of copper coins on the table, making a crisp sound.
A girl passing by the public activity hall in the cabin saw this scene, a funny expression appeared on her face, and then she continued to pass by without stopping.
Although the hall was bustling, it was also filled with the smell of alcohol and a strong odor of sweat. She really wanted to squeeze in and sit there, just to take a look occasionally.
The ship heading to Nanfengzhou was not as big as the treasure ship he had taken before, so the space inside was much narrower. In addition, there were people with various backgrounds on the ship, so Loran Hill was not very willing to go out.
for example
"Hello young lady, are you also heading to Nanfengzhou? I'm Li Jialiang, from Qiyunzhou, and it's a pleasure to meet you."
A young man in a white shirt stopped in front of Loran Hill. He held a folding fan in one hand and wore a blue embroidered jade ring pendant on his waist. He looked mysteriously confident.
"Well, can you please move aside? I need to go over."
"Of course, I just really want to meet you. Could you tell me your name? Although I am not talented, I have just passed the Blue Embroidery Examination. I am also traveling now and want to see the beautiful rivers and mountains of the dynasty."
After saying this, he deliberately turned sideways to reveal the blue embroidered jade ring hanging on his waist.
Blue embroidery? Loran Hill recalled the dynasty's system of honor and fame. The highest were gold embroidery and silver embroidery, and the rest were seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, indigo, blue and purple. Among them, purple was the most expensive, followed by blue embroidery.
Generally speaking, if you want to study at the Jixia Academy, you must at least be able to master blue embroidery, and your age cannot exceed the limit. This person looks relatively young, so it is indeed not easy for him to reach blue embroidery.
However, the communication between Jixia Academy and Emenas also recognizes the strength of its students. If the students graduate normally, they can directly obtain the silver embroidery rating. If they graduate from the fourth grade, they can also obtain the purple embroidery rating. As for the grades below that, there is no more.
Although it seems to be very preferential and high, considering that there are so many talented students gathering in the entire Western Continent, and only about 400 students can graduate normally each year, this evaluation is actually not low.
"Sorry, I'm not interested. Can you please move aside?" The girl gave an awkward but polite smile, thinking that it would be much easier to bring Dai Ju out. It would be much easier to use this guy to drive people away.
