Kapitel 9: Chapter 9: You Have Changed
The sky is dotted with stars, and moonlight mixed with cold wind covers the world.
At this time, in the carriage that Jack borrowed, Vittoria huddled up in Jack's arms to resist the cold.
The carriage had no roof, it was just a wooden board with two wheels and some straw on top.
Newgate, who was driving the car, was sleepy at this time, but he still whipped the horse from time to time. They wanted to reach Astapor as soon as possible.
I hope I can sleep in a warm hotel tonight.
At this time, Jack was enduring the strange smell coming from Vittoria and was counting the stars in the sky out of boredom.
He already knew the current time on the way. Westeros was now in the 299th year of the Aegon calendar, which was the time when Eddard Stark had just gone to King's Landing.
At this time, the Mother of Dragons had just been sold to the King of Horses by her second brother. She was still an innocent little girl who dreamed of living happily in Pentos forever.
However, her second brother Viserys Targaryen's desire to restore his country was far stronger than Daenerys imagined.
As Viserys had said, even if all the warriors and horses under the horse king played with her, let alone the horse king, Viserys would not care.
Just as Jack was falling asleep, Newgate's voice suddenly came, "Captain, we are in Astapor."
"Huh? Are we there yet?" Jack immediately came to his senses.
Astapor lies at the mouth of a winding river, known to the Astaporis as the Worm, which flows into Slaver's Bay from the east.
South of Astapor lie the Ghiscari Mountains, where ancient Ghiscari ruins lie.
On the Cedar Island west of Astapor, the declining Giza and Varos are across the sea.
Astapor is the southernmost slave city in Slaver's Bay.
Yunkai was a hundred leagues to the north, and Meereen fifty.
A well-mounted traveler could reach Yunkai from Astapor in six days, following the ancient Ghiscari coastal route.
At this time, Astapor did not close the city gates as night fell.
For Astapor, the nine thousand Unsullied in the city are enough to destroy any invading enemy.
Even the Dothraki.
Astapor is an ancient city, but it is no longer as populated as it once was.
The most famous structure in Astapor is the step pyramid, the tallest of which is four hundred feet high.
A variety of trees, vines, and flowers are planted on the pyramids, and at dusk the benefactors light up silk lanterns of various colors.
The yacht cruises in the Worm River.
All the streets were made of red brick, as were the stepped pyramids, the amphitheaters dug deep into the ground with circles of descending seats, the sulfurous fountains, the gloomy taverns, and the ancient walls surrounding the city.
The air was filled with fine red dust, which flew along the gutters when the breeze blew.
While driving the carriage, Newgate introduced the ancient city to Jack.
Finally, the three of them chose a hotel that looked more reliable and booked two single rooms. At Jack's request, the owner gave them a large bucket of hot water for free.
Jack handed Newgate a silver coin and asked him to buy some clothes for the little girl. He took Viteli to take a bath and washed himself at the same time.
The smell of the pirate was indescribable, just like when Evelyn was brought back from the sheepfold by her father.
It's even much more smelly.
Oh my God, speaking of Evelyn, Jack has to complete the deal quickly, he only left Evelyn with three days of food.
Viteli didn't seem to like taking a bath, but under Jack's order, she obediently let Jack do whatever he wanted.
Damn, Jack felt that after taking a shower, Vittoria had lost at least two pounds, and dirt was falling down like rain.
However, the result of the bath was obvious. After washing, Viteliel did not feel very beautiful.
I can only say that she is pretty, but her eyes as bright as the evening stars are still a big plus.
To be honest, Jack was a little disappointed. He had expected that the little girl he picked up would be a beautiful beauty.
But in fact, few children of slaves were beautiful.
"Have I disappointed you?" Viteliel asked suddenly.
"No, of course not." Jack denied quickly. He was really satisfied with Vitelli.
Jack felt that he would be able to get a personal secretary who was good-looking, capable and good at fighting.
But Viteli's meaning was obviously different from Jack's.
"I may not be pretty enough, Captain, but my mother taught me a lot of bed skills, and I can make it easy for you."
Jack pinched Viteli's little face and said, "Little girl, you know a lot. Let's wait two years before we talk about this. You are too young."
Viteli pursed her lips and said, "I know, but you've become like this, I think I can help you relieve it."
"My mother told me that when men become like this, it's the women's turn."
Jack's eyes suddenly widened a bit: "You don't need to solve this problem. I will find a cheap prostitute to solve this problem."
With that, Jack turned and left to get the clothes that Newgate had just delivered.
Viteli frowned and looked at Jack's back, biting her lip.
Her mother once said that when a man finds excuses not to touch you, it means he is tired of your body.
But Jack clearly didn't touch her body. Could it be that he got tired of her body after giving her a bath?
