Juliana’s workshop Chapter 53: Seeing and hearing on the road


   After leaving the shop, Lulunaka took Julius to the south. “Where are we going?” Julius asked. Lulunaka walked ahead, did not immediately answer Julius’s words, just walked forward, and Julius had to follow her behind. On the road to the south, people gradually increased. The two of them walked on the edge of the road, sometimes passing through the crowd, sometimes being passed by people-like Lulunaka’s petite body, it is not rubbing shoulders with others.

  A carriage with cargo passed by Lulunaka. Lulunaka trot to the front and talked to the coachman: “Sir, can I take a ride on the ride?”

   The coachman is an old man with rough skin. The heavy work has left many nicks on his face, which also makes him look older than his actual age. Seeing a child blinking like Lulunaka, the coachman’s face added a little smile, “Where are you going, child, if you don’t go the way, I won’t make a special change for you.”

   “I think you will at least pass Diosi Square, right?” Lulunaka blinked her eyes brightly, which made her look completely lively and lovely girl, “Please help, respect Sir.”

   The coachman laughed a few times, “Sit back, kid.”

   “Thank you, sir. Brother, come and thank these kind gentlemen.” Lulunaka beckoned to Julius, and Julius walked over, screaming thank you very honestly to the driver.

   The coachman looked at the two children who were following his carriage, with undiminished smiles on his faces. It seems that I have met a pair of siblings who are going out to play. The younger sister is lively and cheerful, while the older brother is a bit too dull and looks a little nervous.

   “Go to the back, children, as long as the smell is not strange, you can sit as long as you want, but then I will send you directly out of the city.”

   Lulunaka and Julius thanked the coachman again, and then sat down behind the carriage. There is a wooden board at the end of the carriage, just so that the two can sit side by side at the back and watch the surrounding scenery go backwards. This is a good position, but the smell of the carriage is a bit strong, which makes Julius squeeze his nose. “What are those in the back? The smell is a bit big.”

   “Food and crude condiments.” Lulunaka sniffed. “The taste of this salt… is refreshing.”

   “It’s too pungent.” Julius said, “There is also a salty smell.”

  ”The dried fish meat has sacrificed its texture and flavor in order to keep it longer.” Lulu Naka said, “It has a different flavor.”

   Julius doesn’t think this is any flavor, the smell is really unacceptable.

   “If there are good people who let us not walk on foot, you should be content, brother, if you are so picky, I thought you were aristocratic young master.” Lulunaka said.

   Julius shook his head. He didn’t actually care about the smell, he really cares about other things. “Where are you going to take me?” He asked the question again.

   “Let’s go for a walk. I haven’t been to King’s Fort for a long time. Let me see what changes in this place.” Lulu Naka said, “If you don’t see what changes in this city now, you can There is no chance.”

   “No chance in the future?” Julius asked. Lulu Naka didn’t seem to have any intention of answering Julius’s question, and avoided this topic, “You will know from now on, and now I explain this to you, you won’t understand it, maybe you will treat me as nonsense. .”

  Lulunaka has already said so, Julius is not good at asking any more, but this doubt is left in his heart.

   The two sat behind the carriage, watching the scenery on both sides receding. Now the two are still in the expatriate area, and the surrounding buildings are densely close together, with both residential houses and shops, and the riders of the people passing by are constantly passing by the carriage where the two of them are.

   Julius has never seen such a lively scene, his ears are full of noisy sounds, people talking and shouting, and the neighing of cattle.

  While Julius looked around, Lulunaka lowered her head and sculpted the wooden statue in her hand with a knife in her hand. That little piece of wood had been cut into a complete human-shaped silhouette that day, and there was no more place to cut it. Now Lulunaka is meticulously adding details to this wooden figure with a rough outline.

   “The sun is high, the snake’s shadow is heavy, the eagle’s claws are broken, and the eagle’s claws are broken, and they die in the sun…” Lulunaka also hummed Julius’s completely incomprehensible words. If she was singing, then the lyrics are too great. It was weird. At this time when everyone was busy, only Julius could hear Lulunaka humming.

  After leaving the expatriate area, the road narrowed slightly and it was not so smooth.

   “This bad road has been hundreds of years old, can’t it be repaired once?” The knife in Lulunaka’s hand stopped, sighed, and put the wooden statue into her arms. In such a bumpy road, even she is really not in the mood to continue busying her work. “It hurts my ass.”

   “Why is the road so bad here?” Julius asked.

   “You are going to ask someone from the Double Eagle Empire, but I don’t think no one will be willing to answer your question, and I probably think you are mocking them.” Lulunaka laughed, “External The expats live better than their own local residents… This kind of thing still hurts their hearts, although it is true.”

  At this time, a group of people on horseback passed by the carriage they were sitting in. It was a team of riders on tall horses, dressed in costumes different from those of the local residents. Various robes, with leather armor and iron armor covering key parts on the robes. As the riders passed by, Julius saw the weapons hanging from their waists. Axes, swords and guns are not rare things, but a scimitar like a crescent moon is eye-catching.

   Julius always feels where he has seen people dressed like this, and then remembered that this is what people in the Crescent Empire often wear, especially for the warriors-Olga is actually dressed like this~IndoMTL .com is very eye-catching. “Lulu Naka said, obviously, she has also noticed these riders, “This is considered to be your compatriots, don’t you go and say hello to them?” “Julius was taken aback at first, and quickly understood that Lulu Naka meant that they were both members of the Crescent Empire. Because they were born in a poor and desolate village, Julius’s world was once the size of a village. There is no conscious that he is a Crescent citizen living in the territory of the Crescent Empire. Even if it is mentioned by Lulunaka now, he does not have such a real feeling. It sounds like someone else’s business.

   And no matter how you look at it, Julius is not so much a member of the Crescent Empire, but his appearance and skin color are more like those of the Double Eagle Empire. After all, there is still a clear difference between the people of Oulan and Yilan. “I don’t think they will treat me as a compatriot.” Julius said.

   “This is really a shame, you are obviously a talent of the Crescent Empire.” Lulunaka smiled, “But if you are one or two hundred years earlier, you are also a member of the Double Eagle Empire-earlier Even the people of the Crescent Empire belong to the Double Eagle Empire. There is no crescent moon, no scimitar, no nomads, only the flag of the double eagle flying.”

   It sounds like Lulunaka is saying praise and praise, but the next moment it becomes ironic, “It’s a pity, now it’s the moon shining on the earth, the scimitar is falling like snow, and the sound of horseshoes keeps on. The banner of the eagle hangs on the top of the city, fearing displeasing the Crescent Empire that surrounds him… No matter how glorious it once was, it is nothing more than a landslide now.”

   “You seem to hate double eagles,” Julius said.

   Lulu Naka returned with a bright smile, “Who doesn’t hate something smelly on my body?”
