Chapter 152 Akabane Grand Shrine

Mr. Lane... although he also has black eyes and black hair, if you look closely at his face, he doesn't seem to be from Mingao.

Compared with the generally rough facial features of Minggao men, Ryan's facial features look obviously much softer, giving people a non-threatening feeling.

Moreover, Mr. Lane's skin is also very delicate, more delicate than most women.

If Mr. Lane is not from Mingao, where is Mr. Lane from?

Unknowingly, Chiba Matsugiya was staring at Ryan's face in fascination.

Throughout the whole day today, the caravan's journey was very smooth, without encountering any monsters or any other abnormalities.

It wasn't until it got dark that, from a distance, the leader, Oda Yuki, finally saw Minggao's city illuminated by torches.

Seeing this, Oda Yuki turned around excitedly and shouted: "Brothers! Minggao is here! Speed ​​up!"

The members of the caravan were not blind, so they naturally saw this city. Oda Yuki shouted this to Ryan.

Hearing the sound, Ryan, who was sitting in the carriage, opened his eyes.

Minggao arrived? Is it already evening?

Thinking of this, Ryan couldn't help but pat his head. It seemed that he really didn't have a good rest and actually slept all day.

It's a pity that I didn't take a good look at the scenery during this journey.

Then he looked at Chiba Matsugiya, who was directly opposite. She saw Chiba Matsugiya holding the red-spotted lizard egg, opening her eyes in a daze, and wearing Ryan's cloak. She seemed to be asleep.

Seeing this, Ryan stood up and said softly: "Minggao is here, get ready to get off."

"Ah."

Matsugiya Chiba nodded. When she heard that Minggao had arrived, she suddenly felt relieved.

Finally, it was safe to send the egg back...

Unfortunately, the potion made from the eggs of the red-spotted lizard can only relieve the toxins in the mother's body.

As for the cure for toxins, even though my father had used his contacts to find it for so long, he still didn't have any clue.

Soon, he would steal the eggs of the red-spotted lizard again because of his mother's poison.

To be honest, after what happened yesterday, Matsugiya Chiba was already a little afraid of the red-spotted lizard.

But for the safety of her mother, Chiba Matsugiya had to suppress this fear.

Arriving at the foot of Minggao City, two soldiers immediately stopped the caravan and were about to search the carriage.

At this moment, Chiba Matsugiya, who was wearing a cloak, stepped out of the carriage. The blushing little daughter's pretentiousness disappeared from her face, and she looked a bit cold when facing the two soldiers guarding the city.

Seeing Chiba Matsugiya, the two soldiers were startled for a moment, then immediately bowed and said: "Miko-sama!"

Matsugiya Chiba nodded slightly and said coldly: "Let them pass."

"Yes!"

After the two soldiers responded, they stood on the left and right sides of the city gate and respectfully sent the caravan into the city.

After the caravan slowly entered the city, Chiba Matsugiya, who was following the caravan, said to Ryan on the horse: "Let's go directly to the shrine. I will ask my father to arrange a place for you."

Ryan nodded: "Okay."

Seeing that Ryan had agreed, Chiba Matsugiya was about to go back to the carriage to show everyone the way, but she saw Ryan suddenly extending his hand to her:

"Get on my horse, it will be much easier for you to show me the way."

"what……"

Hearing this, two blushes suddenly appeared on Chiba Matsugiya's cheeks. She subconsciously wanted to refuse, but she was choked in her throat and couldn't speak. However, her hand was raised involuntarily and stretched out Ryan to her. The palms of my hands were tightly grasped.

With a little effort, Ryan pulled Chiba Matsugiya onto the horse.

Because Chiba Matsugiya was still holding the huge egg in her arms, Ryan asked Chiba Matsugiya to sit in front of him.

Leaning back in Ryan's arms, Chiba Matsunomiya felt her head was in chaos.

Mr. Lane's figure looks so slender, but is his chest actually so broad?

Moreover, the grass-like fragrance that can be smelled in this way is much richer than that on the cloak...

But soon, Chiba Matsunomiya shook her head and began to show the way to Ryan and his party.

In fact, there is no need for Matsugiya Chiba, relying on Oda Yuki's words, she can also recognize the way to the shrine.

It is unclear whether Ryan's behavior in asking Chiba Matsugiya to sit on the horse with him contained any other thoughts.

On the way to the shrine, Ryan could see that although Minggao City did not look very prosperous, the people still lived and worked in peace and contentment.

The prosperity of Minggao City also varies from region to region, from the outermost military camps, to the thatched cottages where people live, to the stone and brick houses.

Arriving at the central edge of Minggao City, there are already neat rows of B&Bs, which look no worse than the Hedley Empire.

This Minggao City is already as big as the two prosperous cities of Hedley Empire, Yate City and Imperial Capital combined.

However, there is only one city in the entire country of Minggao.

Along the way, although Chiba Matsugiya has been trying hard to maintain a cold expression, and the blush on her cheeks is not so conspicuous in the dark night, the civilians on the street will still react when they see Chiba Matsugiya. Say hello with a smile.

It can be seen that the reputation of the Songgong family in Minggao is not low.

However, when the civilians saw Ryan, they all had strange expressions on their faces.

After all, it's hard not to think too much about my miko-sama sitting so intimately in a man's arms.

Some civilians quickly started whispering, and with Ryan's hearing, he could just hear them clearly.

"Didn't the miko-sama go to find the eggs of the red-spotted lizard? Why did she bring back a husband?"

"Go, go, go! What kind of husband? Did the miko-sama say anything? Do you think he is the husband?"

"Not husband-in-law, so they are so close..."

"Although that gentleman looks quite handsome, he seems to be from the caravan, right? Is he a businessman?"

"I don't feel like that, more like a ranger hired to protect the caravan."

"..."

Minggao, Akabane Grand Shrine.

The only shrine in Minggao, Akabane Taisha Shrine plays an important role in Minggao. It is the place where the people of Minggao gather their faith, just like the cathedral of the Hedley Empire.

There was a long staircase leading to the shrine. Two guards stood in front of the steps. When they saw the caravan coming, they immediately raised their guns and said:

"It is not possible to visit the shrine during the current period. Please go back...Miko-sama!"

When Ryan approached on horseback, the guard saw clearly the appearance of Chiba Matsunomiya, and immediately changed his words, put away his gun, and bowed.

Matsugiya Chiba nodded and said calmly: "The people in this caravan are all my guests. Please arrange their horses and carriages."

"Yes!"

The guards responded and began to take over the carriages from the people in the caravan.

Ryan took the lead in dismounting, and then reached out to catch Matsugiya Chiba. Matsugiya Chiba staggered when she landed, and just fell into Ryan's arms.
