Chapter 254 254. Visiting
Relatives "Master, I am willing to stay with you. If it weren't for you, I might have spent my whole life in a dark world." The girl's voice was cold, and her simple words were sincere.
"What are you worried about?" Lovi stared into her sapphire eyes.
Mixia's heart palpitated slightly, and she shook her head slowly: "It is my wish to be with the young master."
"Okay! I won't force you to leave."
A week after the city-wide celebration, another piece of sad news arrived.
Of the more than 3,000 Freedom Army soldiers, only 1,700 were left, with more than 60% casualties. This was like a bolt from the blue, leaving all the families of the soldiers chilled from head to toe.
Spring has arrived . The expeditionary force has not returned yet. As the temperature warms up day by day, everyone is looking forward to receiving more news from afar.
More and more immigrants are entering the Free Territory, most of whom are farmers who once lived in villages and towns on the southwest border of the Principality. They actively choose to immigrate to more remote areas.
Because only by running away can we avoid the war.
Judging from the map, there is no place safer than Free Territory.
There are natural barriers such as the Blue River in front and behind.
Further ahead is Duanlan Mountain, where you can choose to hide in the northern continent or enter the East Wasteland Forest.
In the current situation of the East Continent, only in remote places can one rest and seek stability. No matter what, it is safer than being in a place surrounded by war.
Besides, there is Donggang City there, a developed city that most people have heard of.
In recent years, due to the circulation of caravans and the dumping of products, the reputation of Donggang City has been pushed to a high level. It has become a big city that many people are familiar with. Even in the mouths of merchants, Donggang City is more prosperous and advanced than Chenguang City.
With taller buildings, cleaner streets and smoother roads.
On the first day of entering Donggang City, Suna was shocked by the monster in front of her. It was a giant alchemical vehicle running on the rails, with a humming sound from the front of the vehicle and white smoke coming out. The sound was too terrifying.
"This city is truly extraordinary!" Suna muttered to herself absentmindedly.
"You'd better go find your sister quickly." Mother Su Lanfang interrupted Su Ya's thoughts.
The two walked out of the port and asked passers-by for directions to Fort Fulin.
"It's a bit far! It takes about an hour to walk from here. You can choose to take the train to save some energy." A kind passerby pointed out.
Both mother and daughter were very curious about the alchemical creation running on the rails, and they would not miss the opportunity to experience it. They asked someone at the train station and spent two copper pennies to buy the ticket to ride.
Suna chose to board the last carriage.
The empty seat looked lonely. Through the transparent glass window, she could clearly see the scenery outside. The air was a bit stuffy, so she tried to open the glass window a little to let the cold wind in.
The bus departs every half hour, so you need to wait patiently.
Not long after, another person got on the bus. He was short, with a hood on his head and a bamboo basket on his back.
Squirrel orcs are not common in the Principality of Sheen, and Suna couldn't help but take a few more glances at them.
"Are you going to Fulin Castle?" Lin Xia simply took off her hood.
"Yes, I'm sorry for being rude." Su Lanfang realized that her daughter's behavior was inappropriate.
"It's okay! I'm going to Fulin Castle too. Who are you looking for?" Lin Xia looked at the two of them.
Very distinctive characteristics, such a broad mind is rare. "My sister Suya is a maid serving the Lord of Fulin Castle." Suna explained.
"It turns out to be Ms. Su Ya." Lin Xia nodded slightly.
Not too familiar with it, but I've heard of it.
The scene was quiet for a while, then the locomotive made a humming sound, the carriage trembled slightly, and the scenery outside the window began to move.
The car started moving! The speed gradually increased and finally remained at a constant speed.
The road surface built with the help of the Earth Guardians is very smooth and the train shakes very little.
Suna tried to stand up and grabbed the railing above her head. She walked to the end of the carriage and looked through the glass at the port gradually disappearing into the distance.
"How long is this railway?" Su Lanfang approached Lin Xia.
"It's not very long, about five kilometers. We've only repaired the first station." Lin Xia informed the other party.
"How generous! The best steel is laid on this road. Lord Lowe is really unique."
"Yeah! He's a special guy."
As they were talking, the train entered the mausoleum area and Suna turned around without looking back.
Lin Xia pretended to be nonchalant and looked at the two of them. People with dark hair could easily attract people's attention in Donggang City.
Su Lanfang is a bit old, with fine wrinkles on her face caused by time. She looks to be at least forty years old, with a gentle and dignified temperament.
Suna looks very young, giving the impression that she is less than 30 years old. She is very mature and has a graceful figure.
Both mother and daughter are much fuller than ordinary women.
After passing the mausoleum area, the train turned a corner and entered the parallel track of Fulin Road.
Suna saw many people running and chasing each other on a wide lawn.
The snow had barely melted when the football game began in full swing.
Although it is not the best weather for playing football, it cannot stop people's enthusiasm.
This is a vibrant city, Su Lanfang thought to herself.
She was a little worried about her daughter's choice of such a remote place. But now it seems that Su Ya is unexpectedly discerning.
On Fulin Road, there are rows of three-story Western-style buildings. There are also a large number of new houses under construction. It is a scene of bustling activity.
Unconsciously, the train began to slow down.
Both mother and daughter noticed the tall castle building not far away.
"We've arrived at Fulinbao!" Lin Xia stood in front of the door with a bamboo basket on her back, waiting for the train to stop slightly before manually opening the door. She put the bamboo basket down first and then jumped down.
The three of them walked towards Fulin Castle.
I just happened to pass by a group of workers who were unloading goods.
Some fresh fish is delivered to the port every day, but the quantity is not large, so there is no need to add an extra cargo carriage.
In fact, the benefits of trains have not yet been seen. In the eyes of most people, steam trains are just big toys of the lords and are far less practical than steam ships.
The guard at the door knew Lin Xia and did not try to stop her.
"These two are Ms. Su Ya's family members. Please help them settle down and pass the message."
The squirrel orc waved his hand and walked in the opposite direction of the corridor.
Su Lanfang and Su Na were led into the lounge by a guard.
There is a ceramic teapot and cups on the table.
Suna looked at the teacup and thought it was very clean, so she filled it with tea and handed a cup to her mother.
Su Lanfang stared at the ticking clock on the wall.
She understood the time.
This expression, which is different from the magic clock, is really amazing.
