Chapter 557 Arrival at Tiansheng Imperial City
But at this high altitude, it’s worse not to smile.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was filled with anger.
Really... enough.
……
The moon is bright in the sky and the stars are shining like a weave.
The wind was howling in the sky, making it almost impossible to open your eyes.
The hearts of Chun Xing, the prince and the others were like hair flying in the wind. While they felt the heroic spirit of looking down on all the other mountains surging in their chests, the previous fear and terror had long been blown away by the wind.
After soaring in the sky and flying steadily, everyone calmed down and looked down from the sky. Although it was impossible to see the scene below at night, the silver light sprinkled on the earth, the dark and undulating mountains, like the spines of animals surging in the night, quickly retreating, made everyone who was flying for the first time feel infinite emotion.
Riding on the night wind, more than 20 hang gliders soared above the abyss, shuttled between the misty mountains, and walked shoulder to shoulder with the stars. The unbridled and happy laughter of the crowd echoed among the clouds in the valley for a long time.
They flew all night until the first ray of morning light penetrated the clouds and illuminated the earth. Then Lin Xiaoyue led them to slowly land on the top of a towering mountain.
Everyone who landed on the ground smiled at each other, with fatigue and excitement in their eyes.
The Seventh Prince was still not satisfied and asked Lin Xiaoyue why she stopped flying.
Lin Xiaoyue rolled her eyes and asked him to take a good look at herself and the others. They had not slept all night, and even though their hearts were still pounding, they could not resist the silent invasion of the biological clock, and there was a dark circle under their eyes.
Perhaps the meaning in her eyes was too obvious. The Seventh Prince was stunned for a moment and then understood. He pinched his nose and pretended nothing had happened as he strolled away.
Lin Xiaoyue gathered everyone together and asked them to use the open area where they were currently as the gathering point, and to spread out in search of water and food, and to gather here in half an hour.
After the flight, the Black-Armored Guards who had previously had some misunderstandings about Lin Xiaoyue now realized that they were the ones who had misunderstandings. They stopped competing with Lin Xiaoyue and obediently went with the guards she brought to collect supplies from the surrounding area.
Otherwise, the little dry food they had with them would not be enough for them to sustain on this journey which would not last long.
The mountain breeze is gentle and the forest is deep and dense. Figures fly quickly through the jungle, spreading out in the mottled light and shadow of sunlight and tree shade.
After all, in this untouched and unpolluted green mountain and clear water, the products are much richer than in modern times. Chun Xing and Xiao Cao went to the nearby area to pick some wild vegetables, while the men went to hunt wild animals or go fishing in the river.
Lin Xiaoyue was not idle either. She strolled around in the woods, climbed over many trees, and brought back a lot of bird eggs.
The only people in the entire team who were sitting there waiting to eat were the Seventh Prince and the Crown Prince. According to their status, they did not need to do anything. They only needed to open their mouths and their subordinates would bring the prepared food to their mouths.
But I don't know what's wrong with these two people. They haven't slept all night. Now they are still very energetic, rolling up their sleeves, and seem to want to make some "contribution".
However, both of them are people who have everything provided for them. Even though the Seventh Uncle had once put on armor and fought in many battles, he had never gone to the stage of collecting food by himself.
Therefore, the two of them climbed up trees and went down to rivers, but they couldn't catch any pheasants or small fish. After all the trouble, they were in a mess. In the end, they only pulled back two handfuls of brambles, which made Lin Xiaoyue burst into laughter. She was very happy.
The others wanted to laugh when they saw this, but due to the status of the two big guys, they had to use all their strength to hold back their laughter, turning their backs and trying not to look at the embarrassment of the two. Unfortunately, their constantly shaking shoulders betrayed their inner emotions.
The Seventh Prince was not angry. He knew that he had made a fool of himself, so he simply hit Lin Xiaoyue with a whip, then clapped his hands. He didn't care whether the ground was dirty or not, lifted up his clothes and sat on the ground, raised his hands with a righteous look, and sat down to wait for the food.
Everyone was not fussy about details and there was nothing to be particular about being outside. They cleaned the pheasants, rabbits, deer and fish they had shot, set up the barbecue grill, and happily grilled meat and fish. After filling their stomachs, they each found a place to curl up and take a nap.
When the sun sets and the moon rises, the mountains in the twilight outline a scene of overlapping peaks, distant and tranquil.
After a day's rest, everyone had their evening meal, stood up, stretched their arms and legs, and got ready. Taking advantage of the dark night, they continued to move towards their destination.
In this way, the group traveled day and night, hiding during the day and moving out at night, and it took them about six or seven days to finally arrive at Tiansheng Imperial City.
Along the way, everyone ate meat and drank stream water every day. If Chun Xing hadn't brought wild fruits with her to balance their diet, everyone would have been constipated and their faces would have looked like shit.
So, when they arrived at the outskirts of Tiansheng Imperial City, they immediately landed the hang glider on the mountain outside the city. In order to prevent it from being discovered, they dismantled it, dug several large pits, and buried it all.
After everything was done, all traces on the ground were cleared and well hidden, and then everyone lined up to enter the Tiansheng Imperial City with unkempt hair and dirty faces that had not been washed for several days.
The group did not wander around. They immediately found the largest inn, booked the upper room, asked the second brother to help fetch water for bathing, and gave him quite a bit of silver so that he could buy clean clothes for everyone to change into.
After everyone closed the door and dressed for a long time, washing themselves from head to toe, they finally washed off their fatigue and dirt. They went out of the room and went downstairs to the lobby to book six large round tables and ordered a lot of food. Of course, most of it was vegetarian.
You can't not eat vegetarian food. For several days in a row, every meal is meat. Even if you like meat, you can't do this, it will cause constipation.
So, the shopkeeper, the waiters, and even the other guests staying overnight at the hotel all looked at Lin Xiaoyue and her group, who ordered a lot of vegetarian dishes and were eating happily, with something strange in their eyes.
If the shopkeeper and his assistants had not received a lot of tips in advance, I would almost have thought they were a group of poor people.
It was already noon when the group finished their meal. There was no rush to move, so everyone relaxed and strolled out on the street.
Speaking of the imperial city of Tiansheng, its prosperity goes without saying. However, Tiansheng does not have the cement formula of Dayuan. Therefore, whether it is the city walls, buildings, or even the road surface, they are more than one level worse than Dayuan. When the wind blows, everyone will have a mouthful of dust.
The Seventh Prince and the Crown Prince felt a little uncomfortable when they saw that their new shoes had become dusty after just walking for a while.
Fortunately, the two of them were unhappy but they just kept it to themselves and didn't say it out loud, otherwise they would have been ridiculed by Lin Xiaoyue: It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
A group of people were strolling on the street, but at noon, there were not many people walking on the road. The doors of the wealthy families were tightly closed. Even though there were merchants or small vendors setting up stalls around, as well as people on the street, they did not pay too much attention to them.
