Volume Four, Volume 50, Chapter 25, Datang City

The wind and snow in the sky disappeared not far from the Northeast Supervision Mansion, because Zhang Tiedu was too fast and the flight distance was too far. In six or seven hours, he had already passed through several different climate areas. The more he flew to the south, the higher the temperature and the gentler the north wind. When he arrived at Jinghe County, Jiangzhou, although there was a hint of chill in the air, it was already warmer than Youzhou.

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

Xuanyuan Hill has no city walls, but the A-level city that appeared in Zhang Tie's sight had an extremely eye-catching red city wall. Looking down from the sky, the red city wall, which is more than 70 meters high, is like four arms stretched out by a giant, and like four fortresses, surrounding the entire city.

When it comes to the prosperity of the city, in addition to Xuanyuan Hill, the city in front of you can definitely be ranked among the top in Zhang Tie's memory and impression.

There are tall buildings in the city, and the market towns outside the city are also scattered. The wide Jing River flows from west to east from the edge of this big city. The boats on the pier on the north bank of the river are densely packed, and on the south bank, there are fields that are beyond the edge of the eye...

This city is the Tang Dynasty city that the third prince Xuanyuan Wuji sealed.

The sky is still dark. Although it is not snowing in Jiangzhou, the approaching winter still makes the sky here more gloomy and the stars are faint. It is just before dawn. Datang City, which is crawling on the north bank of the Jinghe River, is still sleeping. Few people are moving. Only airships that quietly take off outside the city and ships that are lit on the dock outside the city are silently declaring the hard work and hard work of the two professions of crew and sailors.

It only took Zhang Tie a while to see this city and to reach within 200 kilometers of this city.

The transportation network of Datang City is dense, with 6 waters and air. When you look down from the sky, the kilometers on the earth and railways are crisscrossing like spiders, especially the railways. Datang City, which serves as the hub of Jinghe County, connects six railways.

When Zhang Tie was flying in the sky, on the ground, the front of a steam train was spitting steam and white smoke, dragging a series of cars towards Datang City at a distance of about 8 o'clock per hour.

Zhang Tie originally wanted to fly directly to Datang City, but when he saw the passenger train under his feet, he felt a little moved and suddenly lowered his degree. From a height of more than 100,000 meters, he turned downwards and flashed a few times. He fell from the sky and landed directly on the stairs outside the rear of the carriage at the last section of the train.

There was no one guarding the back of the last carriage. The train was running on the tracks. No one saw that there was a single person at the end of the train.

For such a train, the last carriage is usually piled up and ceremonial places. There is a door at the rear of the carriage, which can be loaded and unloaded. At the same time, the carriage at the rear will also be connected with other carriages inside the car, and you can enter the train at the rear.

The door at the rear of the train car was locked, but how could such a lock be difficult to prevent Zhang Tie? Zhang Tie just glanced at the lock and the door lock opened silently. Zhang Tie opened the door and walked into the car. When he closed the door, the door lock at the rear was locked again.

The carriage is indeed filled with various salutes. Because there are too many salutes, the entire carriage is filled with the smell of leather oil.

The entire carriage is sealed, like a can. The air in the sealed carriage is a bit turbid. There is an aisle in the middle. There is an ordinary fluorite lamp on the aisle, radiating dim light. There are two layers of ceremonial shelves on both sides of the aisle, with large and small suitcases and 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 saw Zhang Tie and was about to open his mouth.

"Shh..." Zhang Tie made a sound ban, and the parrot closed his mouth and closed his eyes at the same time.

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

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

At this time, most people on the train were asleep, the curtains of the carriage were pulled up, and few people walked around the aisle, and only the sound of the train driving on the tracks outside was monotonous and boring. Zhang Tie had just passed through two carriages and met the train attendant who was patrolling the train.

The train crew chief's clothing was marked with obvious signs, and the crew chief was an uncle who was about the same age as Zhang Tie's father.

There was a thief on the train. At this time, Zhang Tie, who was still walking in the train, suddenly attracted the attention of the flight attendant. The uncle stared at Zhang Tie and walked over with some scrutiny and alertness. He was about to speak...

"It's uncomfortable to sit here. Can you take me to my private room?" Zhang Tie looked at the flight attendant, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, which directly sent a message to the uncle of the flight attendant.

The voice was heard, and the scrutiny and alert expression on the uncle's face disappeared suddenly, and was replaced by the respect and enthusiasm of seeing an old acquaintance with identity all at once.

"Ah, Mr. Liu, come with me. You have always kept the luxurious private room you like. Your private room is in front, so I will take you there..." After saying this, the flight attendant turned around, walked in front, and took Zhang Tie respectfully to an empty private room among the three front cars.

"Please trouble you!" When entering the private room, Zhang Tie turned around and put a gold coin in the hand of the flight attendant.

"It should be, it should be, Mr. Liu, be polite..." The flight attendant smiled like a flower on his face. After a little refusal, he took the gold coins handed over by Zhang Tie, "Just Mr. Liu, just call me directly if you have any need..."

Close the door of the private room, Zhang Tie smiled, lay down on the bed of the private room, closing his eyes to rest...

Outside the private room, the flight attendant left the door with a smile...

"Ah, head, who is that person..." A train conductor on the train asked strangely when he saw the flight attendant bringing Zhang Tie to the empty luxury private room.

"Young Master Liu!" The flight attendant said as he shook his head, and then, as the conductor looked at him, he calmly put the gold coin in his pocket. "This wealthy young master is different. He wants to experience what it feels like to be hard seats in Feiyu City. He can't stand it until midnight, so he can only go back to the private room..."

"Oh!" The conductor nodded in a vague way, and stopped asking more questions. However, he was envious of the flight attendant's knowledge of so many noble people. The extra money earned is really enviable...

...

Three hours later, as it was dawn, Zhang Tie also took the train and got off at Datangcheng East Station...
