Castle of Black Iron

Volume 50 Chapter 25 Datang City

The wind and snow in the sky disappeared not far from the Northeast Governor's Mansion, because Zhang Tie's speed was too fast, and the flying distance was too far. In six or seven hours, he had passed through several different climate zones. The farther you fly to the south, the higher the temperature will be, and the gentler the north wind will be. When you arrive in Jinghe County, Jiangzhou, although there is still a bit of chill in the air, it is already warmer than Youzhou.

The Grade A city that appeared in Zhang Tie's sight was incomparably magnificent, several times larger than Youzhou City.

Xuanyuan Hill has no city walls, but the Grade A city that appeared in Zhang Tie's sight has an extremely eye-catching red city wall. Seen from the sky, the 70-meter-high red city wall looks like four arms stretched out by a giant. Like four fortresses, the whole city is surrounded by it.

In terms of the prosperity of the city, apart from Xuanyuan Hill, the city in front of Zhang Tie can definitely be ranked among the top few in Zhang Tie's memory and impression.

There are many high-rise buildings in the city, and the market towns outside the city are also dotted around. The wide Jing River flows through the edge of this big city from west to east, and the boats on the pier on the north bank of the river are densely packed, while on the south bank, there is no limit at a glance. field……

This city is Datang City, the closed city of Xuanyuan Wuji, the third prince.

The sky is still dark. Although there is no snow in Jiangzhou, the approaching winter still makes the night sky here a bit more gloomy, and the stars are faint. It is just before dawn, and the Datang City, which is crawling on the north bank of the Jinghe River, is still asleep. Among them, few people were active, only the airship quietly taking off outside the city and the ships moored with lights on the pier outside the city silently proclaiming the hard work and hard work of the two professions of sailors and sailors.

It only took Zhang Tie a while from seeing the city to approaching within 200 kilometers of the city.

The transportation network of Datang City is dense, including water, land and air. When viewed from the sky, the kilometers and railways on the earth are criss-crossed, like a spider web, especially the railways. Datang City, which is the hub of Jinghe County, is connected to six railways.

While Zhang Tie was flying fast in the sky, on the ground, the front of a steam train was spewing steam and white smoke, and was dragging a series of carriages at a speed of nearly 80 highways per hour to the big city. Heading towards Tang City.

Zhang Tie originally wanted to fly directly to Datang City, but when he saw the passenger train under his feet, he suddenly slowed down and turned around from an altitude of more than 100,000 meters. As soon as he moved, the whole person fell from the sky and landed directly on the stairs outside the rear of the last carriage of the train.

There was no one guarding the back of the last carriage, and the train was galloping along the rails. No one noticed that there was an extra person at the end of the train.

such a train,

The last carriage is generally a place for stacking salutes. There are doors at the rear of the carriages, which can be loaded and unloaded for salutes. At the same time, the carriages at the rear will also communicate with other carriages in the car, and can enter the train at the rear.

The door at the rear of the train carriage was locked, but how could such a lock be difficult for Zhang Tie? Zhang Tie just glanced at the lock, and the door lock opened silently. Zhang Tie opened the door and walked into the carriage. Among them, when the door was closed, the rear door lock was locked again.

Sure enough, all kinds of salutes were placed in this carriage, because there were too many salutes, the whole carriage was filled with the smell of leather oil.

The entire carriage is sealed, like a can, the air in the sealed carriage is a bit cloudy, there is an aisle in the middle of the carriage, and there is an ordinary fluorite lamp above the aisle, emitting a dim light, and there are two layers of salutes on both sides of the aisle Racks, suitcases, large and small, wooden boxes, piled up the entire carriage.

Zhang Tie walked along the aisle of the carriage to the front door of the carriage. In this carriage, Zhang Tie even saw a cockatoo in a cage. The cockatoo was about to open its mouth when it saw Zhang Tie.

"Hush..." Zhang Tie gestured to silence the sound, and the parrot closed its mouth and eyes at the same time.

The lock on the front door was also locked, but when Zhang Tie walked in front of him, the lock and the door opened silently like a humble servant.

A fat man in a gray-blue conductor's uniform was covered with a blanket, snoring on the seat at the door of the salute car, sleeping soundly, and did not notice Zhang Tie's arrival at all. After walking out of the last salute car, Zhang Tie Tie walked straight to the front compartment.

At this time, most of the people on the train were asleep, the curtains of the carriages were all drawn, few people moved in the aisle, only the monotonous and boring sound of the train running on the rails came in faintly, Zhang As soon as Tie passed through two carriages, he ran into the train purser who was patrolling the train head-on.

There was an obvious mark on the train purser's clothes, and the purser was an uncle who was about the same age as Zhang Tie's father.

There was a thief on the train. Zhang Tie, who was still walking on the train at this time, suddenly attracted the attention of the uncle of the crew. The uncle stared at Zhang Tie, walked over with some scrutiny and vigilance, and just wanted to speak... …

"It's uncomfortable to sit here, can you take me to my box?" Zhang Tie looked at the purser, a strange brilliance flashed in his eyes, and the sound transmission directly reached the ear of the purser.

As soon as the voice came to my ears, the look of scrutiny and guard on the uncle's face disappeared, replaced by the kind of respect and warmth as if seeing an old acquaintance with status all of a sudden.

"Ah, Mr. Liu, come with me. The luxury box you like is reserved for you all the time. Your box is in front. I'll take you there..." After saying this, the uncle in charge turned around and walked in In the front, Zhang Tie was taken respectfully to an empty compartment among the three carriages in front.

"Excuse me!" Zhang Tie turned around when he entered the box, and put a gold coin in the purser's hand.

"You should, you should, Mr. Liu is polite, you are polite..." The purser smiled like a flower, and after a little refusal, he took the gold coin handed over by Zhang Tie, "Mr. Whatever you need, just call me..."

After closing the door of the box, Zhang Tie smiled, and lay down on the bed in the box, closing his eyes and recuperating...

Outside the box, after the purser smiled and left the door of the box...

"Ah, boss, who is that person..." A conductor on the train couldn't help asking a little strangely when he saw the purser personally bringing Zhang Tie into the empty luxury box.

"Mr. Liu!" The purser shook his head while talking, and then calmly put the gold coin into his pocket under the watchful eyes of the conductor, "This rich young master is different. The car on Feiyu City, I want to experience what a hard seat feels like, but I can’t stay up until midnight, so I can only go back to the box..."

"Oh!" The train attendant nodded half-understanding, and didn't ask any more questions, but in his heart he envied the purser for knowing so many noble people, and the extra money he earned was really enviable...

...

Three hours later, as the sky brightened, Zhang Tie also took the train and got off at Datang City East Station...
