Cultivation begins with expelling corpses

Chapter 73 Xiangzhou
"Master, it's a long way to go to the master's gate. According to my disciples, why don't we go to Xiangzhou by horse-drawn carriage first, and then take the train from Xiangzhou to Sudi? Three days, this will save us at least half of the time."

In the morning of the next day, Zhang Shaozong went to Zhulinju, Pingyang Town, had breakfast with his master Ao Tianlong, younger sister Ningshuang, Ah Ying, Yuan Bao, and his elder brother Zhang Jizong, and then he was about to leave. Before leaving, Zhang Shaozong looked at his master and made a proposal Dao, Maoshan is on the side of Sudi, and from Wuling in Hunan, it may take nearly a month to travel by horse-drawn carriage. If this is the case, it will take two months to come and go. So much time wasted on the road, so it is proposed.

"Train?" Ningshuang's eyes lit up when she heard Zhang Shaozong's words: "Is that the big and long car that I run by myself? I haven't even sat in it before. How about it, dad? Just going to take the train can also save time."

Big and long?

What a word of tiger and wolf.

Zhang Shaozong looked at Ningshuang suspiciously, thinking that his thoughts were impure and misguided, or his younger sister was driving.

Ao Tianlong was also moved. After all, he didn't need to do anything on the way. It would be best if he could save time. After all, he had been delayed here in Xiangdi for so long, and just like Ningshuang said, he hadn't taken the train yet. , to experience it, he was also quite curious, and nodded immediately upon hearing this.

"Okay, then do as you say."

Immediately, the group packed up and saluted and boarded the car. Zhang Shaozong didn't bring anyone with him to Maoshan this time, except for his master and younger sister, he brought a tool man, Yuanbao, who could help drive the carriage and fetch things.

Two carriages are prepared.

"Brother, then I will leave with master, sister and ingot, and I will leave it to you for the time being. Ah Ying, you can just watch the store and take care of the house."

Finally, when everything was ready, Zhang Shaozong bid farewell to his elder brother and Ah Ying.

"Don't worry, be careful on the road."

"Master, take care all the way, I will wait for you to come back at home."

"it is good."

After saying goodbye to each other, Zhang Shaozong and his party of four immediately set off. After leaving Pingyang Town, they rushed all the way to the direction of Xiangzhou. Xiangzhou is also the provincial capital of Xiangdi. It takes about five or six days to go all the way from Wuling by horse-drawn carriage.

On the road, at the beginning, Zhang Shaozong and Yuan Bao were in a carriage, and his master Ao Tianlong and his younger sister Ningshuang were in a carriage. However, after leaving Pingyang Town for less than an hour, after a brief rest on the road, it became Yuan Bao and Ao Tianlong. A carriage was driven by Yuan Bao, and Zhang Shaozong himself and Ning Shuang got into a carriage, Zhang Shaozong drove the carriage, and Ning Shuang sat in it.

"Oh, the female college is not allowed to stay."

Seeing this, Ao Tianlong couldn't help sighing, ever since he met Zhang Shaozong when he stayed here in Wuling, in Ningshuang's eyes, his status as a father has been getting lower and lower, until now he has completely become a brother without a father.

This made Ao Tianlong feel like his daughter, who had been raising him for 16 years, turned around and didn't want him as a father and ran away with others. Fortunately, this person is his most valued, beloved and outstanding disciple, and he has always been filial to his master. , Thinking about it this way, I feel a little more comfortable in my heart.

At least not cheap for outsiders.

"Brother, what exactly does that train look like, and how does it run? I heard people say that the train seems to be running on some track, and what is that track?"

On the carriage with Zhang Shaozong, Ningshuang was like a curious baby, asking Zhang Shaozong about the train along the way, because she had never been on a train before, so she seemed a little excited.

Trains are not popular in this era, especially for people in some remote inland places, they only exist in legends.

This is like the first time many people took a plane in the previous life, and some excitement and anticipation are unavoidable.

"The railroad track is the route on which the train travels. The train must run on it, just like the carriage we drive can only run on the road."

Zhang Shaozong was not tired of bothering, explaining to Ningshuang along the way, occasionally seeing the opportunity when Yuanbao was driving behind and couldn't see them in front of them, he kissed Ningshuang's little mouth and pulled his little hands, making Ningshuang's face blush.

In this case, naturally, there are some classic questions between couples where a woman asks a man.

"Brother, will you treat me well for the rest of your life?"

"The mountain has no edges, and the heaven and the earth are united. I dare not break with Qing."

Well, there is also Bai Yuzhen, maybe there will be other women in the future, but no matter how many women there are in the future, my love for you will never change.

Zhang Shaozong silently added another sentence in his heart, that's how he feels the same.

Ningshuang was overjoyed instantly when she heard the words, her whole heart felt sweet all of a sudden, she leaned her head on Zhang Shaozong's shoulder, thinking,
Brother is so nice.

Five days later, the four of Zhang Shaozong rushed to Xiangzhou smoothly all the way. During the period, they also encountered several waves of bandits and people with malicious intentions, but they were all resolved smoothly.

Xiangzhou is the provincial capital of Hunan. Although it is not comparable to the top cities in China such as Beijing, its prosperity is not comparable to that of Wuling, Taoyuan, and Jiu'an under Zhang Shaozong's rule. On the night of arriving in Xiangzhou, Zhang Shaozong passed by With the VIP card of the foreign company in hand, he booked a high-end hotel for foreigners, and then bought four first-class train tickets to the provincial capital of Suzhou the next afternoon with this VIP card of the foreign company. Willis gave it to him when the Wuling City Foreign Bank saved money.

Everything was properly arranged, and the four of them stayed in Xiangzhou that night. At night, Zhang Shaozong took his master, junior sister, and Yuan Bao to a high-end western-style restaurant for dinner. Originally, he wanted to take the three of them to try western food, but The three of them were not used to eating, and Zhang Shaozong himself felt that his appetite was not very good, so the four of them were not full, and finally went out to the street to find a Hunan restaurant.

"Those Western food tastes not very good. We Chinese make it delicious. I really don't understand why so many people like Western food and it's so expensive."

After eating Western food that was not suitable for her stomach, Ningshuang couldn't help expressing her feelings when she came to Chinese food again.

"It depends on what the individual thinks. It is not ruled out that some people really like western food to their appetite, but more people actually think that eating western food is stylish and has face, and they think western restaurants are upper class. You become an upper-class person, and these people actually eat Western food to save face."

"I don't really have much appetite for Western food. I just wanted to take you, Master and Yuan Bao to experience the taste of Western food, but if you don't like it, then I won't go there."

Zhang Shaozong said with a smile.

"Well, I won't go there in the future. I used to think that Western food is delicious and high-end, but it turned out to be like that when I went."

Ningshuang nodded, and Yuan Bao and Ao Tianlong on the side also nodded in agreement. At this time, a newsboy suddenly came to the door outside.

"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers, the first-class train was robbed, seven dead and twelve injured, selling newspapers, selling newspapers."

"Give me a copy, no need to look for it."

Hearing this, Zhang Shaozong asked the newsboy to come over and buy a copy, and he gave it directly to Dayang.

"Thank you uncle."

The newsboy took Dayang and immediately happily gave Zhang Shaozong a copy.

I am not old, and I am not yet an uncle.

Zhang Shaozong wanted to say this very much, but in the end he didn't say it out of his mouth. He took the newspaper and read it. The headline was the robbery of the first-class train that the newsboy was yelling just now, but it was just last night. The train from Xiangzhou to Beijing was robbed on the way out of Xiangzhou, and the robbers robbed the first-class carriage, and killed seven people and injured twelve people, two of whom died were foreigners. It caused a sensation in Xiangzhou City.

You must know that those who can take the first-class trains these days are not ordinary people. In addition to money, they also need a certain status. Generally, those who can take the first-class trains are basically dignitaries or foreigners. If they are not rich, they are expensive. He couldn't sit in the first-class carriage of the train, Zhang Shaozong was able to buy the first-class train ticket just now because of the VIP card of the foreign company, but now a first-class train was robbed and someone died, the sensation can be imagined.

"Brother, what did it say?"

The three of Ao Tianlong also looked at Zhang Shaozong and the newspaper in his hand, Ningshuang couldn't help asking.

"It said that the first-class compartment of a train bound for the capital was robbed last night. Seven people were killed and twelve were injured."

Zhang Shaozong immediately told the three of them that the newspaper disappeared, and at the same time handed the newspaper to his master.

"Ah, it's so dangerous to take the train, so we shouldn't be robbed too."

Ningshuang immediately worried.

Originally, Zhang Shaozong was going to blurt out that he would not, after all, he bought a first-class car, and those who can ride in a first-class car these days are either rich or expensive, and the law and order inside are not beyond the reach of ordinary people, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly thought of this newspaper The one that was robbed just now was not the first-class car, maybe the group of people specifically looked for the first-class car to start, knowing that the people in it were either rich or expensive or not short of money.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shaozong took out the copper coins directly.

"Let me do the math."

Then, his expression suddenly became subtle. Their train tomorrow will really be robbed.
