After receiving the news that several other people were online, Nian Nian reminded Simir to prepare for departure, so he left Tongtian Tower with him and walked towards the south gate of Chang'an City.

The moment he stepped out of the study room, Simil changed back to his don't-need strangers and mortals, and followed behind Nian Nian, who had the same indifferent expression, walking slowly and unhurriedly.

The South City Gate is the only way to the Qinling region. The Qinling region has always been the destination for many missions around Chang'an, and is also a treasure land for producing various materials. Therefore, there is an endless stream of players running back and forth on weekdays.

Outside the South City Gate is the carriage and horse shop run by the imperial court, which is where the transportation provided by the system is for players.

At the carriage and horse shop, players can choose to rent horses to travel on horseback, or hire coachmen and carriages to serve themselves. No matter which method is used, they will be charged based on speed and distance, and the price of either method is very affordable.

The fastest horse can travel all the major towns in the game for only 20 gold, and players only spend dozens of copper coins on daily travel.

For the same distance, the price of a carriage and driver will be twice as expensive as the price of horses of the same speed, but considering the different experience and comfort, this doubled price is completely within the acceptance range of the players.

The carriage and horse shop not only has a rental office where players can rent horses, but also has a special stable to provide free storage services for players who have purchased their own horses and carriages. Of course, the horse grass that the horses need to eat during the boarding time requires the player.

Prepare your own.

The price of buying a horse is more than a hundred times more than renting a horse, and the carriage is even more expensive. The price of some famous stallions, or horses with particularly beautiful and unique appearance, is even more expensive than buying a small yard in Chang'an City.

It is expensive. And when you buy this horse, you have to provide it with food, wash it, and take it to see a specialized horse doctor when it is sick. The subsequent expenses are also a lot of money.

Despite this, there are still many players who have some spare money and choose to buy an exclusive horse and then buy an exquisite and comfortable carriage to drive, which is not only more convenient but also very respectable. In addition, there are also many players who spend all their money to buy horses.

Raising horses, you would rather not be able to support yourself but also support your beloved horse. This is probably the legendary true love.

Before Nian Nian could reach the south city gate, he received news from San Chi Shui, saying that he and Shi Sui had arrived and were waiting for her outside the carriage house.

In the distance, the noisy sound of people roaring and horses neighing reached Nian Nian's ears. She frowned, slowed down and let Simil walk beside her, and then walked towards the carriage and horses together.

Amid the chaos and noise around him, Nian Nian quickly made a quick distinction with his eyes and led Simil around the crowds of people who were haggling over renting and returning horses, and walked towards the stables of the carriage house.

Not only are there a lot fewer players in the stables, but they are also more orderly. Players and NPCs come in and out in order, nodding and chatting with each other from time to time. The atmosphere is very harmonious. The stables themselves are also very clean and tidy, not only can they not smell

What a strange smell, each horse is equipped with a separate small room and an NPC attendant who is responsible for taking care of the horse's food and drink. A large pasture can be vaguely seen behind the stable, and several people are walking the horse in it.

Opposite the stable is a small pergola, with some wooden tables and chairs arranged in twos and threes. Sanchi Shui and Shi Sui were sitting under the pergola drinking tea.

Nian Nian walked straight towards the two of them, and noticed that two carriages were parked not far away, and the two coachmen were leaning on the shafts of the carriages, chatting one after another.

"Nian Nian! Here, here!" Sanchi Shui also saw her and greeted her loudly.

Shi Sui's gaze also moved to Nian Nian, who was walking towards him, following Sanchi Shui's movements. Under the bright sunshine in the morning, the elf girl who slowly approached had a pair of eyes that were brighter than the sun, and she was blinking.

Look at him without blinking.

Nian Nian smiled friendly at Shi Sui and stepped aside slightly, revealing Simil who was following behind him.

Simil also put on a faint smile at the right time, raised his hand to the two people in front of him and tapped his forehead, then slid it over his chest and made a pious sign of the cross. At the same time, he leaned forward slightly, straightened his body and faced the two people.

He nodded and signaled.

Upon seeing this, Sanchi Shui and Shi Sui stood up quickly and took a few steps forward to meet Nian Nian and Simil. Shi Sui stood upright, arms stretched out like holding drums, hands folded in front of his chest, facing Simir.

Duanran bowed his hands. Sanchisui cupped his fists cleanly, said "Nice to meet you" and stepped aside.

This was the first time I saw Shi Sui saluting in every year, and it was also the first time I felt that the words "gentleman's style" might really have something to do with this person.

She was silently sighing in her mind at the completely different treatment that she and Simil enjoyed, when she saw the three people who had finished their salutes all turned their attention to her.

"What are you doing?" Nian Nian paused for a moment, then said, "You don't want me to salute you, right?"

Simil coughed and took over the words: "My name is Simil Lak, you can call me Lak, I am a 63rd level holy mage of the light system. I encountered an accident after entering the Qinling Mountains with my companions, and I was resurrected and returned to Chang'an City. It happened to be

If I meet this Elf player, please ask her to escort me to meet my companions."

Shi Sui also introduced himself and Sanchi Shui politely, and then invited him to sit under the pergola and wait for a while.

While Shi Sui was talking, San Chi Shui came close to Nian Nian and asked, "The salute you gave to that woman in the West Market before seemed pretty nice. How about another one?"

Nian Nian rolled her eyes at him and replied: "That is our most formal courtesy, can you bear it?"

"Can that blonde beauty bear it that day?" Sanchi Shui asked dissatisfiedly.

"She has a high level and seems to have a relatively high temperament, so it's not a bad idea to salute her." Niannian replied matter-of-factly.

Sanchi Shui stretched out a finger and tapped it on Simir, Sui and himself. He counted while tapping: "63, 59, I am 57, what level are you at?"

Sanchishui bared his teeth at Sanchishui every year, but Sanchishui continued: "There are three of us, two are your employers and one is your boss. Shouldn't you be polite?"

He grinds his teeth every year, but he still bows to San Chi Shui and others in a demonstrative and non-reverent manner.

Simil smiled and explained to Sanchishui: "This is indeed the most formal etiquette among the elves, and ordinary players rarely salute like this. The short bow held horizontally in her left hand means that she will not attack without any malicious intent.

What is written on the right hand is in elven writing, which roughly means 'May the creatures in the world take care of you and me'."

"Then why do players rarely salute like this?" Sanchi Shui asked shamelessly.

"Because not everyone can write that elf sentence. If you write it incorrectly, it will be a blind gesture, and it will not trigger the magic elements to produce effects." This time, Niannian answered him directly.

"Effect?"

"That's not just a fancy way of saying hello, it can temporarily activate the natural magic elements around me, and it also allows me to perceive magic fluctuations more accurately."

Shisui's eyes moved and he said: "Were you trying to find out the number and identity of the other party? Or were you worried that she would cause trouble in the street?"

"I didn't think too much about it, just in case." Nian Nian shrugged and replied.

"So that woman didn't make things difficult for you because she knew you were wary of her?" Sanchishui recalled the scene at that time. Although Nian Nian was inexplicably cowardly, the woman didn't stalk her too much.

"I don't know about that, maybe she doesn't bother to embarrass me." Nian Nian said nonchalantly.

Naturally, Simil didn't know what they were talking about, but he roughly heard some of the situation, thought about it, and said nothing.

While they were talking, several people also found seats in the pergola and sat down. Shi Sui waved to the tea vendor to give Nian Nian a cup of water, and poured another cup of tea for Simil.

Simil picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and then started a moderately friendly conversation with Shi Sui, talking about the customs of the East and the West, etc.

Nian Nian sent a message to Tang Qingli and the others who were walking this way, and began to listen to their conversation obediently, but her vacant eyes clearly exposed the fact that she was distracted.

Just when Nienian was talking about the dangers in the Qinling Mountains, Niannian suddenly came to his senses, said "Here we come", stood up and walked out of the pavilion.

Not far out of the pergola, she saw the two sisters Tang Qingli and Qinghua Fuling looking around at the city gate from a distance, so she quickly sent another message to Tang Qingli. Tang Qingli looked in the direction in which the message came, and saw that Nian Nian was mating

He stood on tiptoe and waved to them.

The three of them walked quickly and entered the pavilion with Nian Nian. Tang Qingli was a little apologetic and said to the three people inside that he was sorry for being late. The two sisters Qinghua Fuling were also a little reserved and blushed and apologized to a few people in embarrassment.

Shi Sui said gently that it didn't matter, then stood up and suggested that everyone get on the carriage.

"This is still some distance from Taibai Town at the foot of the Qinling Mountains. Let's set off now and we should be able to arrive before noon." Shi Sui said, leading everyone towards the two carriages.

He and San Chi Shui walked in the front, while Tang Qingli and the Qinghua Fuling sisters quickly followed. Simil stayed where he was and only raised his feet when he saw Nian Nian before walking towards the carriage.

Nian Nian walked at the end and quickly figured out how to distribute the two carriages between the seven of them. Then he walked a few steps quickly, took the hands of the blue and white sisters and got directly into one of the carriages, facing the remaining four

A man smiled brightly and said, "We girls just chose this car. Do you mind?"

The four men who said they didn't mind had no choice but to get into another carriage. Amidst the shouts of the coachman, they staggered behind the carriage that was already driving in front and headed for the rolling green mountains in the distance.
