The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 1135 Pearl City

Because of various unscientific forces, it is not as difficult for people of different cultures and languages ​​to communicate as they think.

There are translation symbols in the talisman, which can translate languages ​​that cannot be understood. Magic also has language proficiency, and can be enchanted on items. Now monks must go to the Three Realms. The language proficiency pendant, although it is provided by Dragon Palace, but the core of the technology is still People from the sea tribe.

When the Sea Clan sent them to the Dragon Palace to contact the monks, they mainly exchanged spells, and of course text was inevitably involved.

There are many things that can’t be understood just by talking about them or by being proficient in language translation. If you don’t know Chinese characters and don’t understand the culture in this area, you really can’t understand the true meaning.

Therefore, the Hai people are also interested in learning Chinese characters, and try to communicate with monks in Chinese.

It's just that the monks relied on translators at the time, and they often couldn't speak with their brains.

For example, when talking about a certain spell, the monks would probably say, 'Fuck, your spells actually have this effect? '

Over time, the Hai Clan seems to have misunderstood the word "fucking" and thought it was an interjection expressing surprise...

- Seems to be right.

But they are still relatively sloppy in learning Chinese characters. If they write a wrong word, they don’t say anything. As a result, the fireworks in the previous word are wrong, and there is only a huge cursive character hanging in the sky...

So, against the background of a huge crimson 'grass' character, the flying boat landed in the specially vacated space on the small island, and all the monks got off the boat one after another with expressions on their faces.

The welcome from the Sea Clan was very formal. They obviously didn't realize what was wrong with their welcome ceremony. After the monks started to disembark, a large group of sirens came running from both sides, holding all kinds of things made of shells, The musical instruments with the characteristics of the Hai nationality began to play the welcome song.

Sirens are the most musical type among the Sea Clan. They look similar to humans in appearance, but their skin is a faint blue color, and the characteristics of aquatic creatures such as fish fins can be seen on their hands and feet.

And as long as they are on the shore, all the sirens wear masks made of huge shells on their faces, because the parotid glands they breathe grow on their faces, even the air on the shore is too dry for them, so they can only use Mask coverage with moisturizing effect.

It seems a little impolite to look at, but it would be shocking if they took off their masks, and the scarlet parotid glands on their faces would keep wriggling when they bulged their cheeks and played...

Let's not talk about this, the Hai people set up a high-standard welcome ceremony. Although the monks here are full of shit, they can't be too rude, so they quickly lined up.

This formation is not divided by sect, but by seniority. The first ones are naturally the elders who came to lead the team from each sect. Brother Lin and the others are the youngest and the lowest seniority, so they are naturally at the end.

The bustling people in front were full of people, and there were sirens playing musical instruments on both sides. Lin Tianci couldn't dance too much, he couldn't see clearly what was going on in front of him.

Presumably the elders of various factions are arguing in a very formulaic and official way with the people in charge of welcoming guests from the Haizu.

For the monks, the Hai Clan was the first organization to offer an olive branch to Eastern China. At the same time, for the Hai Clan, the monks were the only outsiders they invited to their territory. It was the first time for both parties to do this kind of diplomatic affairs. It's all about how solemn it is.

As a result, Lin Tianci stood there and basked in the sun for almost half an hour...

This small island is called the Island of Sail, which was specially set up by the Sea Clan to welcome people on the shore.

Although all the sea people can go ashore, they are still aquatic creatures after all. Even if they go ashore, they will not leave the water too far. The only people who will go to the shore to wander around the city are the sirens who like to travel, but they are only on the coast. urban activities.

The real city of the Hai people is underwater, somewhat similar to the Dragon Palace. The island of sailing was set up to trade with the western fleet.

So when the welcome team finally started to move, Lin Tianci could see some captains and crew members dressed as Westerners stretched their necks and looked around outside the blocking of the sea clan guards.

The sea is too vast, and the products are extremely rich. This is a huge treasure.

But if you want to obtain these treasures, you must establish a good relationship with the Hai people.These captains and crew members from the west had never seen the Sea Clan welcome anyone so solemnly, and it was no surprise that they were curious.

The Island of Sail is an octagonal artificial island surrounded by specially built deep-water ports and docks. The monks’ flying boats landed on the east side of the small island. After the elders put away the flying boats, the guides of the Sea Clan led the They came to a building on the west side.

This place should be an exchange for trade. There used to be a captain holding a cargo list to trade with the Hai people for a long time, but because of the arrival of the monks, the Hai people made an exception to close the trade for one day and transformed it into a welcome meeting place.

So Lin Tianci, who had been standing in the sun for more than half an hour, finally found a seat to sit down.

However, this is just the beginning. Formal diplomacy between two large organizations will definitely be very troublesome. This is mainly due to face issues. They all think that they must not embarrass themselves and must show respect for each other, so they appear to be very polite. many.

When everyone was seated, the Sea Clan sent out a mermaid holding a manuscript...

Routine speaking time.

It is said that the mermaid is similar to the little mermaid in Lin Tianci's impression in his previous life. The upper body is a human and the lower body is a fish, so it is called a mermaid.

Of course, only those who are good-looking are called mermaids, it is so real.

No matter what era it is, or what world it is, the leader's speech is always long and drowsy. In order not to be ashamed, brother Lin and a group of monks can be said to find a way to cheer up and show their ears to listen look.

But after finally surviving until the mermaid finished speaking and went down amidst applause, the elder from the Tianhe gang also took out a stack of speech scripts from his arms, and it looked thicker than the mermaid's...

After all, the No. [-] in the top ten in name is the Tianhe Gang. It is not a problem to let a member of the Tianhe Gang be the representative on such an occasion, but because of the monk's strong physical fitness, his speeches are even more merciless, and he does not even drink water to moisten his throat. need.

As a result, Brother Lin almost fell asleep. If Xuan Shaoyang hadn't pinched him from below, he would have been ashamed again...

After finally surviving these routine testimonial speeches, the guide of the Sea Clan immediately led them to the real place of abode.

As I said before, the city of the Sea Clan is actually underwater hundreds of meters deep, similar to the Dragon Palace, so they didn't set up any residences on the island.

In order for the monks to reach the Sea Clan city comfortably and quickly, they specially made a special thing like a train carriage.

This thing has its own water separation ability, and it can enter the deep sea like a submarine without being crushed, but the power depends on the seahorse pulling the cart in front.

The seahorse of the Dragon Palace belongs to the strange creature whose upper body is a horse, the lower body is a fish, and the whole body is covered with scales, which is a seahorse in the literal sense.

The seahorses of the Hai people... are the same as the seahorses on Earth, except that they are so big that people can ride them directly.

They also use a similar method to transport goods from the island of departure to their own cities, but the kind of goods transported mainly focuses on fast speed and heavy load, so there is no need to choose comfort.

Pulled by more than 20 seahorses in front, this special passenger car began to move down gradually after speeding on the sea for a while.

Along the way, Lin Tianci and the others were already tired of seeing the underwater scenery, mainly because the underwater light was too dark, even with the eyesight of a monk, it was impossible to see too far.

But the underwater situation on the Sea Clan's territory is two different things.

The seahorse carriages that travel to and from the island of sailing will emit light, and many carriages that pull goods are connected to the underwater city, looking like strips of flickering light.

And as the depth increased, the Sea Clan city closest to the island of departure gradually appeared in front of the monks.

It was a huge royal blue city in a circular shape, like a magnificent sapphire inlaid on the bottom of the sea, close to the bottom of the sea, you can see a road that looks like there are street lights on both sides extending to the distance, these lights will almost Ten Sea Clan cities are connected to form a huge underwater complex.

This is the city known as the Pearl of the Sea, and it is also the city of the sea elves.

Sea elves belong to one of the branches left by the ancient elves, and are a subspecies of convergent evolution of the ancient elves adapting to the underwater environment.

They themselves have many characteristics of the Sea Clan. They can ignore water pressure and can breathe freely in the water, but the sea elves still retain the characteristics of elves.

Like those pointy ears.

Moreover, the sea elves are also the most capable on the shore among the sea people. They can live in the hinterland of the mainland like normal shore creatures without any moisturizing measures. After all, they are originally a land race.

It's just that sea elves are also very home-loving elves. They don't appear in cities of land races, and they rarely leave the sea, so it's almost impossible to see sea elves in other places.

It is very strange to say that there will be sea elves going to Tianshui Palace to become monks, especially considering that sea elves don't like to leave home.

By the way, Tianshui Palace also sent someone, but it wasn't Ran Qinglian, it was Ran Qinglian's elf senior sister, maybe they wanted to take the opportunity to go home and have a look.

The Pearl City is very similar to the Dragon Palace, they both use a huge translucent dome to prop up an area underwater to build the city, and the Pearl City is the only place in the Sea Clan city that has a large number of dry areas. The main blocks of other cities are all It is soaked in water, because other sea people prefer the feeling of being in water to being dry.

As the seahorse carriage approached, they entered the Pearl City from under the dome.

After the sea water in the special hatch was emptied, the monks left the carriage under the guidance of the guide. The first thing they saw was a banner specially made for today, which read 'Warmly welcome the monks of Eastern Shenzhou'.

And behind this banner, there are two signs of the same size, the book on the left: lying down, and the book on the right: grass.

All monks: "..."

It seems that cultural exchange is really necessary.
