Chapter 445 Holy City, Jerusalem

"Is the Holy City made of gold?" Xu Jingzhe stared with wide eyes and muttered to himself.

"Shh." Old Arthur covered his mouth and sneered: "That's really a wonderful thing."

"The stones kicked by my feet on the road are all gold, so do I have to work so hard to catch mermaids secretly?"

After resting in the second half of the night, Old Arthur regained his spirit and strength, and at the same time, he regained his chattering mouth.

"Why is the Holy City shining?" Xu Jingzhe wondered.

"Because the Holy City is full of huge khaki stones, each of which weighs at least several tons. There are many minerals mixed in the khaki stones, among which only the golden particles as big as gravel are the most. Therefore, every time the sun rises, all the stones exposed to the sun will sparkle. Here, it is what you see now."

"It's a pity that those golden particles are extremely hard and worthless." Old Arthur sighed and added.

"That's how I got my name." Xingxing also woke up and suddenly interrupted.

"Hey, my stupid and simple granddaughter, you've only known him for one night, are you going to tell him all your details?" Old Arthur was dissatisfied, bent down and scooped up a handful of sea water with his old hands and sprinkled it on Xingxing's face: "You wake up, he might take away the rutting Okap."

Xingxing giggled and swayed back and forth: "Okap will not pay attention to anyone except me."

"That's not necessarily true." Old Arthur made a grimace to deny.

The behemoth that pushed the boat forward had disappeared, and the small boat glided steadily and quickly by inertia. Getting closer and closer to the Holy City, Xu Jingzhe saw the rugged cliffs, on which grew ancient pine trees with branches like dragons.

At the same time, he finally saw one corner of the Holy City clearly.

Huge yellow boulders, with traces of knife and axe chopping on them, were placed in a mess, everywhere. However, the plane lines of these boulders were cut very completely, and each edge line was straight.

Before he could analyze it carefully, the boat slid into a cave. Old Arthur jumped out of the boat and pulled the rusty iron chain wrapped around the stone that looked like a bird hanging upside down.

"Swish, swish." A harsh friction sound.

"Swish, swish." The iron chain as thick as an arm was pulled up, and at the same time, a brown iron door slowly cracked.

Because of the lack of light, the iron door was painted the color of stone, so Xu Jingzhe did not notice its existence.

After passing the iron door, old Arthur jumped into the sea barefoot, only to the height of his thigh bend, Xingxing had already landed, jumping and calling Xu Jingzhe to hurry up.

Xu Jingzhe jumped lightly and came to the shore. Xingxing grabbed his hand and trotted. The road ahead suddenly became very narrow, and only one person could pass through. Going up, there were handmade stairs, with potholes and potholes, "growing" out of the rugged mountain. There were several arm-long candles lit next to them, illuminating the winding stairs.

Xingxing was familiar with the road and soon brought Xu Jingzhe to the ground.

What came towards him was a noisy noise. Xu Jingzhe stopped and looked at everything in front of him quietly, as if he was in another world.

This is a marble-paved street. The street is very wide and filled with all kinds of pedestrians. They walked, knelt, or lay in many forms, wearing a few thin leathers. There were shops on both sides of the street, and the shops were covered with withered straw. There were also all kinds of shops, selling tea, candy, meat, gambling, pimping... Behind the shops, there were houses, in patches. However, there were also huge stones across the houses. Further away, away from the crowd, there were more stones, like a series of khaki mountains.

A primitive and vibrant city!

This is the holy city, Jerusalem? !

"Silly boy, what are you doing?" Old Arthur returned to his territory, shaking his body, cheering: "Cersei, Kate, Blue Magpie, here I come!"

"Wait to tremble under old Arthur's crotch!"

"Grandpa~" Xingxing covered her face. If Xu Jingzhe hadn't been here, she would have run away in disgust.

"Okay, I've brought you to the holy city, let's say goodbye. Of course, when you want to go back, one gold coin." Old Arthur took Xingxing's hand and was about to leave. Xingxing pouted and struggled twice: "Grandpa, one gold coin is a lot, shouldn't we treat Brother Jingzhe."

Old Arthur quickly covered her mouth: "Shh...you silly girl, let's leave some old money for strangers, okay?"

Xu Jingzhe took out the special paper given by Uncle Da, and when he unfolded it, it turned into dust and scattered with the wind.

Now, he didn't have any doubts.

"Thank you both." Xu Jingzhe thanked sincerely.

"I don't mind if you thank me with heavy, shiny gold coins." Old Arthur bowed and saluted.

Xu Jingzhe turned around and left.

Xingxing held old Arthur's hand, stubbornly watching Xu Jingzhe mixed with people of all skin colors in the crowd, and said disappointedly: "Grandpa, why don't you invite big brother to your home? Anyway, we are poor, right?"

"Maybe Okap will like him. You are so unkind, my ribs will hurt."

Old Arthur twitched his nose, which looked bigger than ordinary people, and his gray-white pupils were terrifyingly deep. The other old and withered palm stroked Xingxing's flaxen hair: "Yes, I really want to, but you are still too young."

"What?" Xingxing raised his head and looked at Old Arthur in confusion.

Old Arthur smiled lovingly: "Let's go, we have money to buy meat."

After walking a few thousand meters, Xu Jingzhe suddenly stopped. Xingxing's silver bell-like laughter was in his mind. He stopped and looked back, and the figures of the old and the young were gone.

"It doesn't matter, we will see each other again anyway." He smiled helplessly.

Jerusalem is very different from the holy city he imagined. There are no skyscrapers hundreds of meters high, no sports cars driving on the streets, and no lights as bright as day at night.

Here, it is ancient, clean, and not polluted by the secular world.

Around him, there are many pilgrims mentioned by Old Arthur, both men and women, with bronze skin, men with naked upper bodies, and women with only a triangular piece of coarse cloth around their chests, with incomparable piety on their faces.

Each pilgrim has a different way of pilgrimage. Some kneel every three steps to the west, and some stand with one hand on their chests, chanting something. Some people walked barefoot on the coarse sand and then kissed the ground.

Of course, in addition to the pilgrims, Xu Jingzhe saw more people he didn't like. There were thieves all over the street. Among the hundreds of people who brushed shoulders with him, at least fifty reached for his pocket, but he easily avoided them by stepping on the fairy's drunken steps. There were also disheveled women who showed off their high breasts and pulled the men coming and going, with seductive moans coming out of their mouths.

On both sides of the road, some beggars were kneeling and lying, with ragged clothes, holding broken bowls in their hands, praying that passers-by would give them a copper coin.

Ordinary people, women with both hands full of gems and gold, poor people, thieves, robbers, prostitutes, beggars...

Coexist peacefully with the holy city of Jerusalem.

Weird, absurd and so natural.

Perhaps, only such a place that is not polluted by the world is most likely to give birth to a woman with a genetic sequence closest to Eve.

He found a shop, the fragrant barbecue, the spicy smell of spices spread, aroused his appetite. He walked over and found a not-so-clean table to sit down: "Give me ten skewers of barbecue."

The skewers made of red willow wood were brought up, sizzling with oil.

Xu Jingzhe raised his head, and a bronze-skinned, short-haired, thin man sat opposite him in a familiar manner, staring at the steaming skewers of meat, licking his lips, "I think, dear guest, you need a guide, right?"

"No." Xu Jingzhe simply refused and picked up one to eat with relish.

The meat was fresh, the boss's skills were very skilled, and the spices were not bad. The combination of the three made it delicious.

"No, I mean Jerusalem is very big. Besides the places that everyone knows, there are some secret places that only I know. They are exclusive." The thin boy did not give up and swallowed.

"So, those secrets are only worth a skewer?" Xu Jingzhe smiled, wiped his mouth, picked up a big skewer again, and shook it.

"Of course not." The thin boy introduced himself: "My name is Kode Banle. Distinguished guests can just call me Banle. The places I know are certainly not worth a skewer."

"The skewer is your sincerity to me."

Xu Jingzhe almost slapped him to death. Good guy, he treated him like a three-year-old child.

Seeing Xu Jingzhe's expression getting unfriendly, the man quickly raised his hand and swore: "I swear in the name of my family's lost bloodline that you will definitely be interested in those."

"Because you are carrying a beautiful long sword, I guess you must be a warrior. As long as you are a warrior, you will be interested in that."

"Tang sword." Xu Jingzhe corrected, handed the skewer in his hand to the boy, and warned: "My Tang sword is extremely sharp and can break the yellowish rocks here."

The man nodded randomly, his mouth full.

"I, I also want a glass of red wine that is more dazzling than gems, filled with a silver cup."

"Eating such delicious, delicious barbecue, without wine, the taste is half less." Banlie looked at Xu Jingzhe with pitiful eyes.

Xu Jingzhe asked for two glasses, and the wine went into his mouth, and the delicious taste exploded directly. It was indeed delicious, and it also had the original aroma of the barrel.

After eating and drinking, Banlie burped, still wanting more. Seeing Xu Jingzhe's cold face, he knew to stop while he was ahead.

"Please follow me, distinguished guest."

Xu Jingzhe followed his footsteps and walked in the crowded crowd. He looked around, looking at the beautiful women, hoping that one of them would make her unforgettable.

Uncle Da didn't tell him any good way, just said that the two would be attracted to each other.

So, he had to walk in the most crowded places.

Waiting for that moment to come.

Ban Lie was very smart, watching Xu Jingzhe's eyes constantly lingering on the faces of beautiful women, thinking that he had traveled a long way and was lonely physically and mentally, and at this moment he needed a woman to comfort his lonely body and mind.

"Distinguished guest, I know a place that is the most expensive place in Jerusalem. The women there are healthy, with slender and strong thighs, tall and soft but upright breasts. They are crazy like a female leopard in bed, no matter how you toss them, they will not be defeated."

"Of course, I believe that with your physique... three is no problem, a fierce queen, a cute loli, and a sexy woman with a baby face but a body more mature than a red pomegranate."

"It's just that the price is a bit high, one needs a full ten silver coins!"

"If you keep talking nonsense, be careful or I'll cut off your tongue!" Xu Jingzhe warned.

Banlie subconsciously covered his mouth, a trace of fear overflowed from his eyes, and he was as silent as a cicada.

On the way, Xu Jingzhe's ears were able to calm down a little, and his eyes stayed on the woman's face as usual. Jiang Ye said that she was a gift from nature and must not look ugly.

After walking for about half an hour, Banlie stopped in front of a house with drafts everywhere and pointed at Xu Jingzhe.

"Is it here?" Xu Jingzhe frowned.

Banlie shook his head.

Xu Jingzhe was furious.

Banlie quickly hid aside and pointed at his mouth. Xu Jingzhe was so angry that he laughed: "You can talk now, as long as it's not nonsense."

"This is my home, please go in and rest, distinguished guest." Banlie said politely.

Xu Jingzhe's face was terribly cold, and he felt that he was fooled by a young boy.

"No, no, no!" Banlie was frightened and retreated again and again: "Your long sword, Tang sword is too eye-catching. There are at least eighty thieves and three gangs of robbers following us along the way. So, we must go there at night. That's where I make money, so please don't get angry."

Xu Jingzhe understood and knew that he misunderstood Banlie. He smiled apologetically and followed Banlie into the house.

The so-called house is a wall made of some stones, a roof made of a few wood and some straw, a straw mat on the ground, and a broken table with a few broken bowls, that's all.

Xu Jingzhe sat down casually, thought for a while, looked at Banlie and asked: "Where are there the most women here?"

Banlie lowered his head, covered his mouth and laughed.

Xu Jingzhe added unhappily: "Except for the brothel!"

Banlie raised his head, his smile was restrained, and he said with a pious face: "That must be the Star Square."

"Star Light Field?"

"Yes, distinguished guest." Banlie had a fanaticism in his eyes, and said excitedly to Xu Jingzhe: "On the night when the Milky Way crosses the night sky, almost half of the people in Jerusalem will gather in the Star Square, both men and women."

"At that time, the Star Square has the most women!"

"When will the Milky Way cross the night sky?" Xu Jingzhe couldn't wait.

"Maybe tonight, or tomorrow night, or the night after." Banlie smiled and said, "It depends on the weather tonight."

"It's still early. You've been traveling all the way, so why not have a good sleep first? I promise that no one will disturb your sweet dreams."

Xu Jingzhe fell into a deep sleep and woke up with Banlie's whisper. When he walked out of the house, Xu Jingzhe saw a scene that he would never forget!

The starlight fell on Jerusalem like a waterfall, and the starlight was vast, as if you were in a sea of ​​starlight.

"Dear guest, you are very lucky. Tonight the Milky Way runs across the sky!" Banlie's voice sounded appropriately.
