The next morning,

Chen Wenxuan and the other two left the hotel and headed for the train station.

After entering the train station and finding the train they were going to take, Chen Wenxuan did not rush to get on, but instead observed the surroundings.

Because there were only early trains, the platform was very crowded, and the sounds of noise, complaints, and hawking filled the entire train station.

In the crowd, there were many people who smelled of medicine and had black ink on their cuffs.

These were people from the Wuling area.

The black ink on their cuffs was to facilitate identification, and the smell of medicine was to cover up the earthy smell.

People who have been fighting for years will have an earthy smell on their bodies. Digging holes, prying open coffins, and carrying corpses will all be stained with an earthy smell. This smell cannot be washed off, and can only be dissipated over time.

Although most people can't smell it at all, it's always better to be cautious when going out.

Moreover, Hunan is rich in medicinal materials such as Polygonatum odoratum, Angelica dahurica, and Realgar. It is safest to pretend to be a drug dealer, and no one will find it strange to bring more luggage.

"Second Master!"

At this time, a voice called out from behind.

Turning around, I saw Ma Jin dressed as a merchant, holding a large oil paper bag and walking over.

Seeing Ma Jin, Chen Wenxuan nodded.

"Have the others arrived yet?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Jin stepped closer to Chen Wenxuan and whispered:

"The chief has arrived earlier, and all the heads have been counted."

"You can just get on the bus. There are people in each compartment. Please call them if you need anything."

"I have asked. It takes six or seven days to get to Beijing from here. The food on the train is not as good as in the village. I went out to buy some wine and food for you."

""Okay, go ahead."

Chen Wenxuan sighed, feeling a little headache.

He felt like he was going to die when he thought about taking such a long train ride.

The trains nowadays are not as fast as those in later generations. There are fewer trains and more stops. Each train has to stop for ten minutes to several hours at a station. How can it be fast?

And now is the beginning of spring. Although the snow has stopped in Hunan, many places north of Hunan are still blocked by heavy snow. It would be considered fast to get there in six or seven days.

But there is no other way. Taking the train or the official road is much faster than the mountain road or the waterway. It would take half a month to get to Peking by taking those two roads.

""Huh~"

He smoked another cigarette. When the ticket agents on the platform reminded him that the train was about to start, Chen Wenxuan reluctantly left the ground and stepped onto the carriage.

Three minutes later, the train was full of passengers and goods. It was panting heavily, dragging more than a dozen carriages, passing through the train station and rushing out of the city.......................

On the afternoon of the seventh day after leaving Changsha, the train arrived at Beiping Station.

Seven days is not long, but not short.

Chen Wenxuan thought that the seven-day wait would be very painful.

But after getting on the train, he found that lying in the carriage seemed to be quite good.

Because there were vendors selling novels on the train!

And most of them were martial arts novels, such as"Legend of Jianghu Heroes" and"Legend of the Red Blooded Heroes", which were quite good.

The time spent reading novels passed so quickly, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

When he got off the train, he felt that he had not finished it.

There were still two books in his pocket that he had not finished reading.

After getting off the platform, Chen Wenxuan did not wait for his brother and the old foreigner, and directly led Hua Ling and Hong Girl to the waiting room.

When they were on the train before, they asked the waiter on the train.

The waiter said that Beiping was different from Changsha. There were trains at the big station in Beiping all day, and there were two or three trains to Shimen in Jidi every day.

Therefore, they can still take the train for a long distance.

After arriving at the Shimen in Jidi, they can take the official road, cross two counties, and directly enter Mengdi.

As soon as the train arrived at the station, his brother and his fellow apprentice brother Queqiao Shao went to ask for tickets.

If there is a train to Jidi in the afternoon or evening, they can arrive in Jidi in the early morning of tomorrow, and then spend a day or two to cross the two counties.

They waited for about ten minutes.

The three people who went to the ticket office to ask for tickets turned back and nodded to Chen Wenxuan.

""Let's go."

Seeing this, Chen Wenxuan whispered, and followed with Hong Girl and Hua Ling.

On the way to the platform, Chen Yulou looked excited.

"Half an hour later, a car headed for Shimen, Jidi."

"The front compartment was empty, so I stuffed some silver dollars and squeezed a batch of goods in. We went directly to the cargo box, just in time to carry the stuff on our backs first, and we could set off as soon as we got off the car!"

Just like that.

A group of people, including people and stuff, squeezed into two cargo compartments and headed towards Jidi.

After arriving in Jidi, the team of 100 people was divided into three teams. After dispersing out of the Shimen area, they headed straight for Quanwan County.

After Quanwan County is Yishang County, and the back of Yishang County is right next to Mengdi. Mengdi is right in front of us! (Apologies for the update.)
