Chapter 203 What Fang Heard

As soon as they entered the first town, they boarded the train.

Shifang was full of curiosity about everything here.

He is not the only one as curious as he is.

Sitting next to Shifang was a mother and daughter. They came from outside the Yanhuang occupied area and had originally lived a hard life.

Not long ago, a small group of Yanhuang's troops came to their village while on a mission. The Yanhuang soldiers were entrusted by their comrades to come to the village to see if his wife and daughter were safe.

For various reasons, both parties lost contact and thought the other was dead.

When his wife heard that her husband was not dead and had joined the Yanhuang Army, she cried with joy.

Then the mother and daughter were escorted by a special person to the Yanhuang occupied area.

They traveled thousands of miles along the way, and there was always a soldier accompanying them, so the mother and daughter felt at ease. The daughter kept looking out the window and asking questions.

The train is not actually that fast, but for most people, this speed is already beyond their reach.

"Mom, can we take this long car back when we come back?" The boy's face looked a little thin, but his eyes were particularly bright and beautiful.

"Okay." The woman was actually still very confused about the future.

At this time, the soldier sitting opposite said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, my brother Long is now a junior commander. He has been allocated a large villa in Qingzhou City and receives fifty taels of silver every month. You and Xiaoya don't have to go back to live that hard life anymore."

"How is Aaron doing in the military? Fighting is dangerous, right?"

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. Although no one in the army can guarantee absolute safety, Brother Long has left the front line and is doing fine. He has made great contributions on the front line this time. He and I joined the army together, but now he is two levels higher than me. Brother Long was also personally met by the lord and the great elder and awarded a badge."

"What do the lord and the great elder do?" The woman didn't understand these things. She wondered in her heart whether they were high-ranking officials such as the county magistrate or the legal advisor.

"The Lord is our emperor. Although he has not yet ascended the throne, we all know that he will be the emperor soon. The Great Elder is equivalent to the Prime Minister, the highest official around the Lord."

At this moment, a flight attendant came to them in the aisle of the carriage pushing a cart, and the boy's attention was attracted by the snacks on the cart.

But she remembered that her family had no money, so she lowered her head silently again.

"Wait a moment." The soldier waved his hand: "This, this, this... and this, give me some of them all."

The soldier brought a bunch of snacks and drinks and placed them on the small table.

"Little boy, eat whatever you want."

"Brother Chen, why did you buy so much? How much does it cost?"

"Not much, not much, just a hundred or so coins. Our Yanhuang coins are very durable, especially when I'm in the army. Two months' salary is equivalent to what my husband earned from farming for a lifetime." The soldier smiled and said, "There's a restaurant in front of the carriage. I'll take you there in the evening."

"Brother Chen, it's really not necessary. We have been through hard times. It's nothing to go hungry for a few meals."

"That won't do. If my brother Long knew that I let you guys starve, he would definitely beat me up."

The woman really cared about money. During the whole journey, the mother and daughter had been watching their brother in arms spending money all the time since they got on the car.

We stayed in the best inn, whose rooms were more beautiful than the county magistrate's house, and we ate the best fish and meat.

It's the same on this train. I heard that this train travels more than 2,000 miles. How much does it cost?

Moreover, they never missed any meal, and every meal was more sumptuous than that during Chinese New Year.

"Brother, which unit are you from?"

asked Kui Gang from across the aisle, having shrunk to twice his size in order to board the train.

If he couldn't shrink, he would have to stay in the cargo compartment.

"I am the third batch to join the Black Evil Corps." The soldier said, raising his left shoulder: "Are you from the City God Division?"

"Is it so obvious?"

"Of course not. The wristbands you guys are wearing are specially made for the City God Division. They are not available anywhere else, and no one dares to imitate them."

"How is the battle going on the front line now?" Kui Gang asked, "If it involves military secrets, just pretend I didn't ask."

"Well, it's no secret. We will launch a general offensive in half a year and unify the world," said the soldier.

Millions of people throughout Yanhuang had no doubt as to whether Yanhuang's general offensive in half a year would be victorious.

The gap between the remaining three rebel forces and Yanhuang is so huge that there is no comparison at all.

"Why do we have to wait half a year? I can't wait to see the lord wearing the dragon robe." Kuigang was a little disappointed.

"Aren't you afraid of war? Many people will die in war." Shifang couldn't help but say.

"My lord once said that there are two kinds of wars that must be fought in this world. One is the war of unification. Even if there is no lord, there will be others working towards this goal. If the whole world is divided into princes, it will be like the Warring States Period thousands of years ago. The princes are constantly fighting each other every day, and more people will die. The other is to resist foreign races. We cannot retreat because of fear of war." Kuigang said.

"If everyone has a Buddhist heart and everyone can worship Buddha, there won't be so many wars." Shifang said.

"My lord said that if there is more than black and white in this world, there can't be only humans in this world. Similarly, not everyone can believe in and worship Buddha. Every life should have its own color, race, and even its own beliefs. I respect your beliefs, but you can't force me to accept your beliefs."

"Amitabha, the donor's master is a man of great wisdom."

"Of course. If the lord does not have great wisdom, he cannot establish Yanhuang." Kuigang said proudly.

After two days and two nights, the train finally arrived in Qingzhou City.

When Shifang arrived in Qingzhou City, his eyes became dull.

Unlike the border town where they boarded the train, the station there was a bit ordinary.

The population of Qingzhou City has now reached one million, and its area has expanded several times. Two sides of the original city wall have been demolished, and the remaining two sides serve as a sedimentation and witness of history.

The Qingzhou City Railway Station is incredibly huge.

There are people coming and going here, and Shifang feels that there are more people here than he has ever seen in his life.

It is noisy but full of vitality, with crowds of people everywhere.

When Kuigang and others brought Shifang to the outside of the train station, Shifang saw tall buildings, blue sky and white clouds, and passing traffic. It was a scene that was completely different from the one at the foot of the Baiyun Temple mountain.

"Is this Qingzhou City?"
