Inside the cabin, Abe looked at Laurie who was explaining in front of him and whispered to the girl next to him.
"Let's just listen to the captain. We'll do whatever they say."
The girl spoke.
"Okay, but don't worry, miss. Even if you are really stranded, I will get you back safely."
"Well, I believe Abe."
After discussion, everyone finally decided that it would be better to go to Hongye City first.
Because even if Hongye City is gone, there will definitely be some dilapidated houses. At worst, everyone can move their things over and temporarily take shelter from the wind and snow in the dilapidated houses.
In the hall.

Shelly didn't dare to offend, he said helplessly: "This...maybe things are a little complicated, we misjudged the distance before!"
Shelly came in quickly.
An extremely rough voice came from the city wall.
“We’re finally here!”
This is very embarrassing. You walk to someone's door and find it is locked, and you can't see if there is anyone in the house.
After hearing Abei's explanation, the girl's eyes were full of stars.
Looking at the girl's embarrassed face, Abei found it a little funny.
Bang! The big ship made a muffled sound, and they knew that it had arrived at the dock.
Some people also spoke out to comfort others, as if they were comforting others, but also as if they were comforting themselves.
"ah?"
I can clearly see the city, but I just can't get there. What else could this be but the devil? "Don't worry, we will definitely get there."
"Ah? Impossible!"
"We really miscalculated, because we never thought that the wall of Hongye City would be so tall! It looks right in front of us, but it's actually very far away..."
"Forget it, forget it, just hurry up!"
Some people are very happy, but others think more.
Suddenly there was a scream from the hall outside.
Someone said pessimistically.
Abe looked at the innocent girl and touched her head.
"I'm afraid too."
"I underestimated this heavy snow. Although our horses are good, they are not good enough to move freely in the snow. And there is another problem. We are running out of fodder. This is something I didn't expect before. The horses can't hold on for long."
Everyone stretched their heads to look.
Laurie had to reassure these people, otherwise they might do something unexpected. Someone had asked him to stop the boat before, and then said that they were riding away on horseback.
And most importantly, he has a pair of exaggerated horns on his forehead, which makes him look like the devil in the legend!
"Abe, I, I don't have any gold coins left. I spent them all..."
"Yes, because this river is not straight and the wind direction is not very good, our boat is moving very slowly. In addition, the wall of Hongye City seems to be really big, so we feel that we will never reach the destination. But according to my visual observation, we will arrive soon."
Someone shouted loudly in the cabin.
Abei lowered his head in confusion, and saw the girl tiptoeing and whispering in Abei's ear:
Abei's tone was still emotionless, but the girl could hear the determination in her voice.
Everyone climbed onto the deck without caring about the heavy snow.
The girl was a little unsure.
“Boom~”
They finally saw the whole picture of Hongye City and were speechless for a moment.
"Captain, Captain!"
In addition to the two people, there are four burly men here, who are the girl's bodyguards.
"I have."
"Miss, please go."
…
Although they had been cheated by the captain once, everyone was still very excited after hearing the news. They had packed their things long ago. Some people had horses, but they needed to be led out from another exit.
They both opened the door, and many people had already appeared in the hall.
Laurie said, pointing in a direction.
Abe shook his head.
The young man was also a little confused.
The girl was a little crazy.
"But I wonder if these people will welcome us?"
Although the girl was wearing thick clothes, she still felt very cold.
Three hours had passed since Red Leaf City was discovered.
The crisis was resolved, and some people spoke in a relaxed tone, some even cracking jokes.
Sure enough, in the distance, a city stood.
From the initial excitement to the current numbness, everyone is a little bit unbelieving.
"Great! We are saved!"
“I, I can!”
Listening to the subtle chewing sound, the girl swallowed her saliva and her little hand involuntarily reached out to the black bread.
"Ah? Aren't you old sailors? How could you make a wrong estimate?"
Captain Shelly's excited voice came from above.
The person who spoke was a blond-haired, blue-eyed young man, and beside him were several burly men who looked like guards. They looked like the sons of some wealthy family.
"Is this an illusion, or have we fallen into the devil's trap?"
Abe took out a large piece of dark bread and a pot of dark beer from his bag.
Shelly explained.
Only then did the girl finally start to feel a little scared.
The four guards led out six horses and came out from another exit.
Arriving at the foot of the city wall and looking up at the tall wall and the heavy city gate, everyone suddenly discovered a very realistic problem.
Many people have started feeding the horses to ensure that they have enough physical strength to be ridden after going out to the field.
…
This made the young man suspicious of Captain Shelly.
But if they continued along the original route, they might not even have a broken house. If they were stranded because of ice on the water, they would really be trapped to death on the river.
The girl next to Abei was not prepared at all and took a big breath of cool air.
Whoosh~ The sail was whistling, Abe opened the window a little, and the wind and snow poured in instantly.
"Don't worry!"
In the corner of the hall, Abe and the girl looked at those people without saying anything.
“It will probably be here soon!”
If there is no one in Hongye City, then they can only think of another way. At worst, they can just give up the ship. Anyway, with these gold coins, they will not starve to death in the future.
There was a hint of grievance in Shelly's tone. He had never seen such a high city wall. Even the royal city of Buck Kingdom could not compare to it!
Just one sentence was enough to make everyone cheer.
"Ladies and gentlemen, great news!"
"Okay everyone, pack your bags, we will arrive at Red Leaf City soon, but in order to prevent being turned away, if anyone is good at speaking, you can come with me."
The heavy door opened, and the rumbling sound made everyone subconsciously step back a few steps. Those who didn't know thought it was a rock falling from the mountain! "You must say something nice later!"
Abe closed the window and said with a frown:
"Even if you don't tell us, we will definitely move forward as fast as possible."
The Senluo River is called a river, but with its size it can definitely be called a river.
If it were an ordinary situation, some people would inevitably be upset, but given the special circumstances, no one blamed others too much.
"Red Leaf City is right there."
“It’s so cold!”
The young man was a little bit unconvinced. The reason they chose this ship was because the people on board were all experienced sailors and there was a high degree of security guarantee. Now you tell him that such a low-level problem could occur?
"What's wrong?"
They couldn't see if there was anyone up there, and with the snow and wind blowing hard, their voices couldn't be heard!
Bang! Many people were so frightened that they couldn't even stand.
Especially when that huge figure, covered in fine steel armor, carrying a four-meter-long machete on his back and three meters tall, walked out.
"It's almost here, everyone please get ready!"
At this time, the girl quietly pulled Abei's clothes.
Abe didn't force her. She broke off a piece of dark bread and ate a few mouthfuls with dark beer.
"They will definitely welcome you! Even if they don't welcome us, they will welcome gold coins, oh no, silver coins! I think in such a remote and barren place, they may not even be able to take out a single silver coin!"
The sailors were busy dropping anchor, while the customers were rushing to get off the boat.
"this……"
You need to look up to see the whole picture of the gray city wall.
"Won't."
Everyone collapsed.
"What are the people down there doing? What's going on?"
"No, no! It's too disgusting! I want white bread. I want Queen's bread!"
Abei shook her head. She didn't like such arrogant people, but she had to admit that he had some truth. In such a small place, as long as you could take out gold coins, you would definitely become a guest of honor.
"We are a passing merchant. My name is Shelly. The weather outside is too bad and our ship cannot leave. We would like to come to your place to rest. We will pay!"
"Phew, great! It's finally here!"
Because the stove was taken away and there was no place to keep warm, everyone returned to their own small rooms. Now, because of this exclamation, the hall was full of people again.
"No problem... What the hell is this?"
More than an hour passed.
Although everyone hopes that there is no Nosa City in Hongye City, we still have to be prepared for both scenarios.
"Abe, do you think we will die?"
"That's great! We won't be kicked out of the hotel just because we don't have money to stay there! Even though that hotel is not a place for people to live..."
However, after an hour, they still hadn't reached Hongye City, which made everyone a little anxious.
"this……"
Shelly and the other two were counting the gold coins. If there were anyone in Hongye City, they would see if they could exchange them for some supplies. There were too few cities along the way. They had gold coins now, but they couldn't spend them.
"this……"
After the door opened, the sound of footsteps could be heard. In the dark doorway, a tall figure over two meters tall walked out first. He was muscular all over, and his important parts were protected by a shiny silver armor. On his shoulders was a sword that was more than three meters long. The blade was shining coldly, and the sword body was as big as a door panel. If you said it was a shield, some people would definitely believe it.
"Break a piece for me, I can't break it!"
"The snow has turned into a blizzard. If we can't find a place to rest, we're going to be in trouble."
The power of nature is awe-inspiring.
Seeing this, Abei reached out his hand and gently took the girl into his arms.
"Okay, thank you all. By the way, everyone, look here——"
Abei saw the tall city wall in the distance through the gap in the window, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.
Of course, the premise is that they can survive this heavy snow.
Shelly shouted. He knew that others might not open the door at this time, so he could only promise benefits first. If others still didn't agree, he would have to spend the money first.
Obviously, this is not a human! After him, many people came out one after another, each of them was huge in size and equipped with exaggerated equipment.
…
"clear."
"I'll come too."
Abe held the girl in his arms and with one light jump he stood steadily on the dock.
Shelly's reminder made everyone come back to their senses. It doesn't matter how high the city wall is, as long as there are people, it will be fine.
"I'll tell you a secret, I'm actually very afraid of death!"
"Ah? Don't we still have horses?"
"It seems that the people in Red Leaf City are easy to talk to!"
Because the wind was causing the boat to sway all the time, the captain put away the small stoves in their hands to prevent fire.
"Didn't we say we would be here soon? Why hasn't it arrived in such a long time?!"
"I can't compare to the young lady. No, there is no comparison at all!"
When the river was not frozen, Shelly and the other two maneuvered the sails in the heavy snow and easily adjusted the direction and turned at the fork in the road.
"Haha, it doesn't look far away!"
“Wait!”
"Is it really coming?"
The girl was a little surprised, because she knew very well how powerful Abei was. If she said there would be trouble, then there would really be trouble.
"You'll know later."
"Abe, you're amazing! As amazing as my sister!"
"It's normal to be afraid of death. It's a sign of respect for life. But if there's a time when I need to sacrifice my life, even if I'm afraid of death, I will still rush forward without hesitation."
"I'll go out and take a look."
"So can I!"
Abe looked as if he had expected it.
Fortunately, this embarrassment did not last long.
"I!"
Laurie suddenly seemed to remember something and opened the window. A gust of cold wind suddenly blew in, scaring everyone.
The sound coming from the city wall made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Laurie looked at these people and said with some relief: "Ladies and gentlemen, we are very lucky. Red Leaf City does exist, not far ahead!"
They had never seen such a tall wall before! "Hurry, hurry, hurry, get down first, the snow is getting heavier!"
The girl breathed a sigh of relief. Compared to these people, she trusted Abei more. If Abei said it had arrived, then it must have arrived.
This is a joke! It's so cold, and he's all alone without a place to keep warm. He'll probably freeze to death by tomorrow morning. The more times like this, the more we need to unite.
In the simple room, the girl who wrapped herself tightly spoke with a helpless tone.
The girl looked up, somewhat incredulous.
"I have some brown bread here."
"That's great, I told you my luck couldn't be that bad!"
The girl was a little surprised.
"Abe, are we not there yet? I'm hungry!"
Abe's eyes narrowed.
"sky!"
As a powerful and rare female knight, Abe is actually afraid of death?
Hearing Abei say that they would be arriving soon, the girl called all her guards over.
There were not only people on board, but also their horses.
Even the three experienced captains were trembling in their legs.
What the hell is this!
Where on earth have we come to?
"Ah, Abe, is it too late for us to escape now..."
