Chapter 9 Homecoming
"Hey...."
Charlie lay on the plank bed and let out a moan.
"Fuck, I've never been so fond of bed."
"You know him?"
On the other bed, there was old York, lying sideways, with a cigarette in his mouth, this old man was quite addicted to smoking, except for some dry food and water, he only had cigarettes, to be honest, if he had done finger recombination, he would definitely have necrosis of the finger blood vessels due to nicotine poisoning.
"I'm not familiar with it, he is responsible for escorting this train, so I always see him, the person is very good, as long as the money is enough."
Of course, the last sentence is said from the bottom of my heart, so many stevedores, why can he stay in the car? You'll have to ask about his shriveled wallet.
"Is this the soldier's compartment?"
"Hmm."
Charlie shrugged.
"This is thanks to Your Excellency Copper Coins, otherwise we civilians wouldn't be able to live here."
"Your Excellency the Bronze Coins."
Suddenly, Charlie sat up with his arms propped up.
"Do you have any plans for the time you go back?"
The sudden war disrupted his plans, cost him his job, and he almost ran out of his savings to be able to go back to see his daughter, so he was in desperate need of a job now.
Naturally, after knowing that Fugui is an extraordinary person, he gave birth to a little careful thinking, and there are not many opportunities to eat with the hands of the transcendental, such as leaving a little bit of his hands at will, which is enough to earn a month.
"I.."
Fugui pointed to the leather bag on the table.
"When I go back, I'm going to set up a small workshop."
This money is not much, the factory does not need to think about it, but the workshop is more than enough.
"Huh?"
"Not everybody likes to fight and kill, and if I could, I'd rather do business."
"This... Okay.."
Charlie shrugged his shoulders, as the saying goes, the strong can always be willful, this is people's freedom.
"I don't know, can you bring me one?"
After a moment's silence, Charlie asked cautiously.
"I don't have any other abilities, but I'm well-informed, and I used to have a nickname in Wallash, called 'Charlie Knows.'"
"Hah.."
"Yes."
Fugui nodded, the aroma of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, serious business actually needs such a person, its positioning is similar to the sales of running out, of course, he just wants to launder money, but he always has to do enough.
The more you understand the convenience of capitalism, the more you will know that people in the capitalist world are wolves, and they will stare at every bite of meat they can eat.
"Thank you, Boss Copper."
"Well, it's fast enough to change your words."
"Let's all rest, those orcs are gone, as long as they don't want to be surrounded, they probably won't come back."
"Okay.."
...
"I'm going to get home."
Along the way, there were no problems, but because of the previous delay, although the strange and familiar capital could already be seen in the distance, it was already close to dusk.
Leaning on the window, Charlie looked at the capital in the distance, and a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes from time to time.
It is understandable that at the age of thirty-seven, he left his country to go to the colony to mine, and this digging was almost twenty years, and then returned to this noisy place, how could there be no sense of being a person or a person.
As a person from the earth, he knows that twenty years has changed dramatically for the country after the Industrial Revolution.
"Sigh Rhythm ~~"
The sound of a horse chirping attracted everyone's attention, including Fugui and Wu, three high-headed horses with shiny fur marched in unison, and their strong muscles even wanted to burst their skin.
But even more attractive than the horses are the three women sitting on it, dressed in leather armor, slender bodies, long pale green hair, and especially a pair of pointed ears through the long hair, there is no doubt that these are three female adventurers with elven blood.
"It's really beautiful."
After a few glances, the steam locomotive and the horses staggered away, Fugui couldn't help but sigh, the appearance of these three women is not much different from 3D animation, and as real people, they have a charm that paper people never have!
"It seems that the kingdom is also in a hurry, hehe."
After reading the brainwaves of the three of them, Fugui probably knew that the purpose of their trip was to march along the railroad to exterminate the orcs wandering behind the front line, and the royal family of the border kingdom issued an unlimited mission through the adventurer's guild.
It means that anyone can pick it up, as long as they hold the orc's head, they can come and receive the reward, and it is also anxious to think about it, it is estimated that the damaged railroad tracks are not only those they encountered before.
"But.."
Retracting his gaze, Fugui couldn't help but be a little curious, those three women were three sisters, but the one at the head couldn't read her thoughts, and even said that he could feel that the natural electromagnetic waves between heaven and earth couldn't pass through her body, and this was the first time he had encountered such a thing.
"Sure enough, if you forget to fight, you will be in danger, and if you are warlike, you will die."
Once again, Fugui began to introspect every day, telling himself not to be complacent because he killed an orc, this world is full of adventurers, too presumptuous, maybe one day it will overturn...
...
"This is my home."
Charlie pointed to the house on the side of the road.
"You're pretty big."
"Hey, hey."
Charlie grabbed his hair, which was also his pride, although it was in the lower town, but this house was also the reward of his years of hard work, providing a place for their father and daughter to live.
"Knock knock~"
"Daughter, I'm back."
Charlie came to the door and knocked on it.
After a while, the door slowly opened, and a girl about twenty years old came out, wearing a simple dress, a pair of braids, but wearing a mask on her mouth, and she also wore a mask at home at night, which was unexpected.
"Daddy!"
The girl seemed surprised to see her father, who might only come back once a month on weekdays.
"There is going to be a war on the front, and I am just in time for the last train."
"Another war?"
A hint of fear flashed in the girl's eyes, and she wanted to hug her father forward, but in the end she held back.
"Who are these two?"
"Friend, boss, let's go in and say, by the way, boss, my daughter has a cough and lung disease, but she has been taking medicine, so it won't be contagious."
Fugui nodded, when he read his thoughts before, he already knew that according to the analysis of symptoms, it was most likely tuberculosis, and the good news was that Valash had medicine to treat this disease.
The bad news is that this drug cannot cure tuberculosis, it can only prevent its onset, and it will not infect people during the pill, and then, he sensed the electromagnetic waves in the girl's body, and sure enough, there are shadows on both sides of the lungs, but the area is not large, and it is estimated that it is a lesion.
"I heard that there seem to be some shrines in Valashri, isn't there some magic or something in them?"
