Manda left Miaoyin city in a carriage. She was embarrassed and embarrassed.
Along the way, the lioness kept complaining: "as long as you give an order, even one look, I will kill the arrogant Archduke immediately."
Manda shook her head and said, "you can''t kill him. There are too many strong people around him."
"That''s not necessarily true. Everyone thinks we won''t do it, including yourself. If we do, they won''t have time to take precautions."
Manda shrugged. "Even if you can do it, how can we get out?"
"When I do it, all their attention will be focused on me. You must have a way out."
"What about you?"
"I don''t care," said the lioness gritting her teeth. "Isn''t it worth exchanging my life for the life of a Archduke?"
"Of course not," Manda touched the lion girl''s face. "Your man wants to be a king. Don''t you want to be a queen?"
The lioness turned her head and opened Manda''s hand. Now she doesn''t want to hear Manda''s jokes. She is not the kind of person who can''t stand being wronged. She just can''t see Manda being wronged.
Moailabi was more rational than the lion girl. She noticed some details.
"The Archduke doesn''t seem to know you very well. He mentioned Almon in front of you and thought you were under Almon''s control."
"Thank Hermes for his blessing," Manda smiled. "It''s a rare luck."
The lioness frowned and said, "what luck is this? If he knew you were the controller of the southwest, he would never look at you like this!"
"Is his vision important? I don''t need his appreciation," Manda smiled contemptuously. "People who don''t know me will die in my hand if they are careless. This is the luck given to me by the gods."
Chuyt opened the curtains of the carriage and looked behind the carriage: "my Lord, maybe I''m suspicious. There seems to be a tail behind us."
Manda nodded: "you are not suspicious. You do have a tail. This guy has been with us for a few days. It seems that he will follow us all the way to the southwest."
The lioness was surprised, turned her face and looked at Moira and said, "did you find anyone following?"
Moira shook her head and chuyt said, "the other party is an expert, the class is not low, the means are very cautious, and there is no trace."
The lioness moved her shoulder and said, "I''ll kill him."
"Don''t worry!" Manda rubbed the lion''s shoulder. "It''s rare to come to the South and let him accompany us for a few days."
"There''s nothing to play with," the lioness pushed Manda away again. "I don''t want to stay in this damn place for a day."
"Holna has a point," said Moira. "Sheltai is very hostile to you. We have to leave the southwest as soon as possible to prevent him from doing it."
"Then let''s go back, but which way should we go?" Manda was lost in thought.
From southwest to due south, the nearest southwest city to Miaoyin city is parrot city. It takes ten days by water and 21 days by land.
"When you come, you go by water. When you go back, you go by land." Manda made a decision. He wanted to take this opportunity to increase his understanding of the south.
But chuyt was worried: "Sir, if you go overland, you must pass through the brittle rock canyon. The mountain thieves there are very fierce."
The lioness smiled contemptuously and said, "what''s the fear of mountain bandits? Do we kill less?"
"These mountain thieves are different. I asked Moritz. It seems that there are high-level believers among them. Moreover, the brittle rock valley is too special. The rocks there are more brittle than pancakes. If there are enough gravel, it can even kill hundreds of people."
The lion goddess se Mulan said, "I''m not afraid. I can fly in the sky."
Manda said angrily, "what about me?"
The lioness patted Manda on the face and said, "I''ll take you off."
Ogg sniffed his nose and said, "what about me?"
"Let the great prophet fly with you."
After telling a few jokes, chuyt returned to the subject: "my Lord, we don''t have enough hands. We really shouldn''t rush into the brittle stone valley."
In addition to more than 50 guards, Manda only brought lioness, Moira, Ogg and chuyt on this trip. There were really few hands.
Manda scratched her head and said, "I''ve heard that many people have walked that road. Have they all been robbed?"
"That''s not true. It''s really elusive. According to Moritz, no caravan carrying stones will be robbed, but those carrying grain will be robbed, those carrying slaves will not be robbed, but those carrying cattle will be robbed."
Moira said, "then we can''t go. We transported more than 40 cows."
Manda tilted her head. It''s really hard to understand. Why are mountain bandits picky when robbing? This professional attitude alone is not a fierce bandit.
He looked at Ogg and asked, "what did the great prophet say?"
Ogg looked at the lioness and said, "the great prophet said, if this woman doesn''t save me, she will be punished."
The lioness beat Ogg. Ogg wiped the blood on his face, offered blood as a sacrifice and made a simple prayer in the carriage.
"The great prophet gave the oracle. There are losses and gains on this trip. The losses will not be too great, but the gains are amazing."
Manda nodded and said, "then you can''t go against God''s will."
He decided to take the land route and carefully observed the customs of the South all the way. It is close to the southwest, but the landform is very different. There are many mountains in the southwest and almost all plains in the south. There are large uninhabited wilderness in the southwest. The population in the south is much more prosperous, with large tracts of farmland and dense long houses.
The only similarity between the two is that there are few cities. The regional area of the south is almost twice that of the southwest, but there are only four cities in total. Manda went to one of the cities and didn''t rush into the city considering that she might not be popular.
Manda speculated: "this should be related to the business strategy of emphasizing agriculture and restraining commerce. As far as I know, the shertai family has hated businessmen for generations. They do not prohibit their people from believing in ancient gods, but they are never allowed to believe in Hermes."
Moira stretched out her tongue: "no wonder he hates you so much."
The lioness suddenly pinched Moira''s tongue and gently pulled it out. The painful Moira tears flowed.
"He''s a stupid hick!" the lioness looked disgusted at the mention of sheltai.
Manda shook her head and said, "it can''t be said that he is wrong. There are fewer cities, fewer nobles and fewer nobles, which is more conducive to rule. It''s a pity to have such good land and don''t have to farm."
Compared with the barren southwest, the fertile south is admired by Manda. I''m afraid only turbulent city can compare with it.
"This land belongs to me," Manda said to herself, biting her lips. "It must belong to me."
……
After walking for twelve days, the party finally saw the mountain and the brittle rock canyon.
Chuyt reminded again: "my Lord, many nobles have also been robbed. Moritz''s nephew once robbed all his finances and ran back to parrot city with two maidens naked. I suggest you consider it carefully again."
Manda looked at the lion girl: "are you afraid?"
"I have nothing to be afraid of," smiled the lioness. "You are not afraid of shame, and I will be naked with you."
Moira was a little nervous: "it''s hard to find even a leaf in this season."
Ogg sniffed: "a leaf is not enough!"
Manda ordered to set off. The guards followed the carriage and walked through the valley with 48 cows for a long time. Suddenly, they heard a crisp sound, and a piece of gravel slipped down the hillside with snow.
They jumped out of the carriage and got ready for the battle, but saw a man in his thirties standing on the hillside and said with a smile, "friends from afar have worked hard all the way. Do you want to rest here or sleep here?"
