1014 the Road Traveled

"Look! This Norma Collier...I've heard of him." Looking at the newspaper that had just been delivered to my office, the eye-catching text on the front page was already the most popular in this school. The welcoming teacher's girl, Benjamin, said to the old man beside her.

The old man squinted his eyes, held the reading glasses from the north with his hand, and barely read the small text on it: "He once helped us..."

This old man is also a teacher, he is Benjamin's teacher, he is a declining little nobleman. He used to be the wisest and most educated elder in the town where Benjamin lived, and he was also a philanthropist.

When the devil invaded, he spent all his wealth to help the people in the town escape, and even sold his own house in the end.

But it can be considered that good people have good rewards. He finally survived the double disaster of the plague and the devil, and was met by his apprentice, Benjamin Aichal, who is the most beautiful female teacher in this small town.

"I think, since the newspaper said he was a war criminal, he should have done something bad." Benjamin helped his teacher pour a cup of hot tea, and put the cork back on the thermos bottle.

The more she uses these utensils, the more she gets used to them. These products from industrial civilization have changed everyone's life.

Even such a small detail can make people feel the joyful convenience. This is a feeling that has never appeared in my life before, a feeling that makes people yearn for life.

"You're right... child. Although the Norma Empire once took in many refugees when the demons invaded, it said that the royal family of the Norma Empire tried to steal nuclear weapons and set off a war with our country... This is wrong..." The old man pointed to the small print on the newspaper and said to his students.

"I like it here!" The old man took off his glasses, and then carefully wiped the very useful reading glasses with a piece of animal skin.

Ever since Mr. Benjamin applied for this pair of glasses and someone actually sent them, the old man has been taking good care of this not-so-valuable reading glasses very carefully.

"At least, I see hope." As he said, he wrapped the glasses with leather and put them back into the glasses case: "I have lived to be 67 years old, and this is the first time I have seen someone working for the people like this His Excellency the Consul."

The consul he was talking about was the consul in this small town. This young magician had done a lot of good things for the whole town. Of course, these good things were actually arranged by the superiors and had to be completed.

Every consul must follow the above indicators to complete the construction of roads, build schools, open small factories,

Settle refugees and provide them with jobs and other tasks.

If they encounter difficulties, the local garrison will provide help, and if they need more help, there will be special people to approve and send special people to help complete it...

In short, this place is very similar to when the Alan Hill Empire was just rising. Everyone is flexibly and desperately completing all the tasks in front of them for a better life.

"At least our school is what you, teacher, hoped for back then." Benjamin picked up the water glass by himself and took a sip. The long skirt on her was beautiful and new.

Over time, the donations from the north to the south began to change, with fewer old clothes and more new clothes. Moreover, some more expensive living materials also began to pour into the southern region in large numbers.

At the beginning, there were battery-operated radios, thermos bottles, plates and chopsticks... Now some more novel things have begun to appear one after another: for example, ironware that was rare among commoners in the past, various books that were extremely expensive in the past, and even It's some motorcycles and cars...

Benjamin's school has also changed drastically. The original playground has become more level, and the surrounding courtyard walls have also been repaired.

The soil in the flower beds has been refurbished, and spring is approaching, so it will definitely look like a bunch of flowers in the future.

The windows of the classrooms have been replaced with crystal clear glass. The army helped to expand the original windows and repair them with quick-drying cement to make the classrooms more spacious and bright.

Every classroom has a new dark blackboard, and the desks, chairs and benches have been replaced with "good things" of uniform specifications.

Everyone cherishes these brand-new desks very much, and naturally no student is boringly engraving a word "Zao" on them - after all, there is no such piece of text in the textbooks of other worlds, and no children have been similarly "inspired" .

In short, this is a new world, a world that people cherish and is worth cherishing. People living in this world have unprecedented peace of mind. They are willing to protect everything in front of them and leave all the good things to this world!

"Yes, children can learn useful knowledge instead of those red tape. Everyone can know the world, understand the world, and explore the world..." The old man smiled: "This is my voice." My long-cherished wish, now someone has helped me fulfill it."

He looked in the direction of the consul's mansion through the window: "He's still a young man younger than my grandson."

When mentioning his grandson, the old man's eyes clearly showed sadness - not everyone can survive the disaster, and the living will always bear more pain.

"Every time I see Mr. Consul, I think, if my descendants can be so good...my life will be worth it..." The old man sighed, picked up the teacup in hand, and took a sip of hot tea : "Fortunately... you are still alive, Aishar."

Benjamin comforted: "Teacher!... Robin hasn't been found yet, we can't give up hope!"

"I know, I know, but I don't know how to face him! He gave little Ike to me, but I didn't take good care of him...but I didn't take good care of my grandson." The old man lowered his head in self-blame , Wiping the tears off his face with his hands.

"Brother Robin will forgive you! Teacher!" Benjamin continued to comfort him: "Things will get better, just like our current life."

"Sometimes when I open my eyes at night, I will be full of resentment... I love the motherland now, and Alan Hill is worth my life to love it... But, I hate... why didn't they come to save us earlier? If His Majesty Chris could be born in this world a year earlier... even six months, then, how good would that be?" The old man's plaintive voice made Benjamin's eyes blush.

There are too many unsatisfactory things in this world. Even if you have seen the other side of happiness, you can still think of so much pain and sorrow... However, life must continue to stretch after all, and life is still life. No one can stay where they are, because time pushes everyone forward, in such a hurry, that there is no time to turn back and take a look at the rough road they have walked...
