Dawn of the Grey Tower

"Be careful! Open the gate!" The heavy sluice lifted as the winch slowly rolled, revealing the true look of the hole bridge. The shadow of the bridge deck fell on everyone who passed through the bridge hole, as if it was a silent welcome, or a silent laugh. This is a city that will devour people. It is large and complex enough for people to spend a lifetime here. It is a labyrinth and a vortex. Once caught in it, the snares created by the complicated relationship and the nails created by people's desires will trap people in it forever, and they will never tire and endlessly. In such a place, it is not surprising that anything will happen.

"Hey, the goods are all unloaded for you. Thanks to you, otherwise I don't know how long I will be trapped in that ghost town. It's a pity that I have to go home and say something safe to the old one, so I can't go ashore and drink with you A cup." The boss of the ship stood on the deck, looking at the few people who had gotten off the ship, and said heartily. As soon as he got out of trouble, he went straight to the stream without even returning home on the way.

This relationship was indeed owed by the boatman, and there was nothing to be moved by Yu Li. But Yu Qing, they still liked the man who was begging for life on the river. After throwing the money bag with money to the other party, the mage shrugged slightly, "Then drink it next time, we will have to start Go back here and drink with you again when the time comes. This money should be your first appointment."

The sale of timber along the river plus the transportation of pedestrians may seem to some people to be a lucrative business, but in the final analysis, one boat per person can only earn a limited amount of profit and cannot afford a long pause. The cheese can not pay the freight to the other party, which has been said for a long time. They helped the ship boss get rid of the difficulties as soon as possible. The latter took them to the stream for free. However, since they are not short of money, why should they be stingy with this cost? Now that I have given the other party money, I have to leave a way for myself, so I don’t even have someone willing to carry them in case I have to run into trouble.

Cleverness is beyond rivers and lakes, and fire and water are the most ruthless. The people who live in water and fire look rough, but they are not simple. The boss of the boat almost understood the meaning of the cheese at the same time he took the money bag. He smiled, didn't say much, just nodded to the mage and propped away. In some cases, you don’t have to be so eager to pack your tickets even if you read it. After all, he doesn’t know if the pedestrian cheese is going to fight home or kill or set fire. If he is really in trouble by the time, he can help, naturally he can help, he can't help, so he has to hide away. Mo Dao, this is Bo Qing, if everyone is righteous to Bo Yuntian, this world will be chaotic.

The figure of the ship's boss disappeared outside the sluice gate, and the people who remained in the sluice gate also diverted their attention from this small parting. They now have an entire city to face, but they have no time to sigh. Jian Qi and Ata led a horse, looked around, and looked for the exit of the pier. In fact, it was not difficult to find, because apart from the wooden boards near the water where they were, there were a lot of stairs and The ramp leads to a higher place. I wanted this design to prevent the river from flooding and causing the cities built on the water to be submerged. Very reasonable, the cheese thought, taking the lead towards the nearest ramp.

As it claims, the rushing capital embraces all the rivers that flow down from upstream and what they bring. Just a small dock, the cheese they see the pedestrians with a lot of differences in skin color, hair color and even race. Some of them are workers, some are businessmen, and some travellers who seem to have no clear purpose similar to them. Of course, there are also a lot of people who are indifferent in shape and bad intentions, especially after seeing the appearance of the two prairie horses and Atta, several people who have hidden their faces under the hood have begun to whisper. But somehow, when they saw the cheese and sword seven, they disappeared.

"It's not quite right." Jian Qi also noticed the guys. He was not afraid of the other party's stumbling and making a trick. If he swam outside for a long time, if he couldn't even deal with this kind of thing, he would have been trapped in an unknown ditch. What he said was wrong means that in the absence of a manager, these ground snakes would take the initiative to retreat. This is not like a rogue approach, these people should not be so timid.

"There's nothing wrong. Remember the rule that the boss said to us? The only rule in this city, respect." The cheese heard and understood the meaning of the companion, and said, "This respect has two meanings, positive On the one hand, the city is full of inclusiveness, able to accommodate all people and viewpoints. But think about it in reverse, there is no so-called lord, no army, or even a unified security system. What do you think makes this place not reduced to Unable to take it? Keeping respect for others means that if you feel offended, you can fight back. Everyone here can become a murderer without being responsible."

"Did you keep your distance because you threatened each other?" The sword seeker's tone was hesitant, and he began to think that the city was not as interesting as looking at it from a distance.

"It's not that exaggerated. Labang gangs are the instincts of intelligent creatures. Here, race, gender, occupation and purpose may become some kind of label. They may be aware that some of our labels are not easy to provoke and give up. For example, maybe in this In the city, cats are a kind of sacred animal, and all the people who keep cats are protected. Maybe the mage's words are completely teasing Kailas. You are now lying on the back of the horse led by Atta and wandering around, looking completely unattracted by the lively scenery around.

But this assumption was quickly overturned~www.readwn.com~ because when they walked to the real place of the city, that huge platform on the water, a large number of vendors sold cat meat . And looking at that, it seems normal to buy and sell cat meat here. In front of the stall carrying cat skins, some customers were eating cat food. The mage exhaled slightly, murmuring, "There must be no witches in this place. It would be weird if the mad women who love cats like this would not even directly lift the city into the river." There are indeed witches..."

Guess, it shouldn't be on the street. The cheese stopped their thoughts in time. They now need a place to stay. The more they are in such a strange environment, the more necessary a reliable foothold is. So what kind of foothold is reliable in this strange city? An ordinary hotel will inevitably be a den of thieves. Do you need a local to help? But why don't local people lie to them?

"Hey, kid! Look at your horse! It's about to mention my head!" An angry voice sounded from behind, looking back, Jian Qi was busy to apologize. The person he apologized was also the one who had just complained, and his height was only up to the sword seeker's abdomen, paired with the iconic long beard. There is no doubt that this is a dwarf. And dwarves don't like horses, and it's not news anymore.

The cheese looked at the dwarf, frowning and thinking about it, he knew who to ask for a foothold.
