Chapter 696: Yalingang

Yalingang.

It's the northernmost port on the East Coast, and it's busy on weekdays with countless ships coming and going. And this is also one of the few ports on the east coast that can go to the main continent - after all, it is not a port, and there are ships going to the main continent.

Due to this reason, coupled with the fact that the geographical location is indeed remote, the port of Aringang was not affected in the previous battle between the Avengers wizards and the Deep Blue Keep, and it was operating as usual.

Time, close to dusk.

In winter, the westward sun lazily sprinkles the golden sunshine around Yalingang. From a distance, the sea seemed to be rusty and rippling.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa......"

The sound of the sea sounded, and a medium-sized sea boat, under the skillful operation of the helmsman, quickly passed through one cargo ship after another, and entered Yalin Port to stop.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Several large, heavy gangplanks were lowered from the side of the ship and landed on the shore accurately, allowing the ship's passengers to land on land.

"Squeak Squeak Squeak ......"

The gangplank shook slightly, and Richard stepped on the gangplank and stepped off the boat, officially setting foot in Yalin Port - more than ten days have passed since the previous big battle.

For more than ten days, Richard did not waste much time, leaving the battlefield and going to the nearest small port. After that, I took a boat from a small port, arrived at a medium-sized port, and then got on a wooden boat from a medium-sized port, and finally came to Yalin Port, a large port, and wanted to go to the main continent from here.

The reason why he knew that he could go to the main continent from here was due to Sherlock. When he was on the Rocky Mountains outside of Auburn, he met Sherlock and talked a lot with them. It was at that time that the other party told him that the easiest way to go to the main continent was to come to Yalin Port to take a boat. At that time, the other party came to Yalingang with a long convoy.

I wonder if the other party has arrived early?

Richard thought to himself, took a deep breath, and the cold air with the salty smell of sea water poured into his lungs, and his spirits were lifted, and he turned his head to look around, and looked at the whole of Yalingang.

It can be seen that Yalin Port is indeed a rare large port on the entire east coast, much larger and more prosperous than the previous Hague Port and Alfalfa Port.

Inside the port, large and small ships were crowded, like a can of sardines. Ships that are not familiar with the harbor can hardly dock in the harbor, so they can only dock in the shallow sea outside the harbor, go ashore in small boats, and then find someone to help.

And leaving the port and walking deeper into the land, there are lively streets appearing. Every street was full of shops selling all kinds of goods, and young men stood at the door and shouted loudly.

Between the shops, there will naturally be no shortage of taverns and inns, so that they can serve the merchants who come and go. Occasionally, a drunken drunkard staggered out of the tavern, stepped on the hard, slippery ground, and fell to the ground without paying attention.

After all, it's the northernmost part of the East Coast.

Even if the east coast is close to the sea, it is icy in this winter. Melting snow flows on the ground, and after a night of cold winds, it creates a mirror-smooth and hard ground.

In this way, the drunkard naturally fell into a lot of meat and food, and he couldn't get up after struggling for a long time, which caused passers-by to constantly laugh.

The drunkard was furious, scolded continuously, and finally found that he couldn't get up, so he simply lay on the ground and prepared to sleep.

This is very dangerous, in this winter, once it is night, the cold wind blows on people's faces, like knives, and will frantically take away every trace of heat from people's bodies. There are really people who dare to sleep on the street, and they don't have to wait until the middle of the night to freeze and become a hard portrait sculpture.

Eventually, the guy from a nearby shop couldn't stand it anymore, so he pulled up the drunkard who was drunk and slept and dragged him to the store, ready to wake up the drunkard and go home.

This naturally made the owner of the shop very unhappy and reprimanded, but in the end he did not throw the drunkard out.

Richard took everything in his eyes, his eyes blinked, and he could sense that the folk customs of Yalingang were still good.

But he didn't think much of it, and walked into the distance, ready to find a hotel to stay in first.

As a result, when passing a tavern, I saw a large convoy parked on the side of the road, unloading, and a person constantly directed.

Raising his eyebrows, he walked over to the person in command, patted the other party's shoulder, and said in a slightly surprised voice: "You just arrived?"

"Huh?" the other party turned his head to look at him in a daze, first stunned, and then a little surprised, "You arrived earlier than me?"

The other party was none other than Sherlock.

Richard shrugged, looked at Sherlock and couldn't help but say, "By the way, you're too slow, haven't you, left so many days earlier than me, and only now arrived at Yalingang?"

"You can't blame me, my dear friend. Sherlock said, pointing to the long convoy, "You don't see how many things I have to carry, how can I be fast? I'm already the result of speeding up the trip! But wouldn't it be nice to meet you, we can go to the main continent together, and we can take care of each other."

I have inquired about the good news, and in three days a ship from the main continent will pass through this Yalin port, and then we will be able to get on the boat and go to the main continent. ”

"That's good. Richard nodded.

"Looks like you agreed. In that case, let's not stand here. Sherlock said, looking very afraid of the cold, sighed at his hands, and rubbed his ears again, completely lacking the temperament of the aristocratic gentleman before.

Stretching out his hand, he pulled over the little maid named Lucia, and Sherlock said, "My goods, I have to unload them for a while, let's go into the tavern to warm up, and we can also have something to eat by the way." ”

"Good. Richard had no reason to refuse, and agreed, and walked into the tavern next to him with Sherlock and the little maid on the other side.

......

Inside the tavern, the stove was blazing, and as soon as you entered, a wave of heat rushed in.

Sherlock stretched his body and sighed, "This is the wonderful world, it's hell outside." As he spoke, he sat down closest to the fire.

The guy from the inn ran over attentively, handed over the menu, and asked loudly: "This guest, this is the menu, take a look, what do you need?"

Sherlock took the menu, hurriedly swept it, frowned slightly, looked at the guy and said, "You don't seem to have any good things on the menu? It's all some pickled chicken, pickled duck or something, nothing else?"

"I don't know what you're talking about......," the guy asked cautiously.

"For example...... Yalingang is very famous tiger striped grouper, is there any? Find me the fattest one, stew two. ”

"This ......" the guy looked embarrassed, "I'm really sorry for the guests, there are too many people ordering tiger striped grouper, and I bought it in the morning." ”

"What about the black ear shells?" Sherlock asked again, looking very understanding, "The black ear shell soup is very good, and the last time I drank it, I can't forget it." ”

The man's expression was extremely tangled: "This is faster than the tiger striped grouper." ”

"That's it. Sherlock sighed, a little disappointed, but didn't give up completely, and asked, "What about the big fire rock crabs? ordinary sea crabs, there must not be them now, but I know that there are many big fire rock crabs at this time, and they are very delicious." If so, give me this table first, and two for each person. ”
