Chapter 255: Sissi

1775: Lin Zefeng, a native of Beichen, personally drove a train with 34 small carriages for a successful test run. Since then, the human transportation industry has entered an era powered by steam.

The following year, steam trains were also used in Britannia.

In 1776, Ramses II successfully conquered most of the lands of the Arab nation through more than ten years of outward expansion, and proclaimed the establishment of the Great Egyptian Empire, covering an area of more than 10 million square kilometers, which is the largest country in the world after Britannia, Beichen and Russia.

He succeeded to the throne in the Great Temple in Cairo.

1790: The first industrial revolution is completed in the East.

1800: Arthur led Britannia through the first industrial revolution, at the beginning of the nineteenth century, at the age of 56.

More than forty years have passed since Char came into this world.

In March of the year.

Char was arranging his collar in the bedroom, putting on a very modest suit, his face was unchanged from forty years ago, and his time stood still at the moment when he carried the power of fate.

If it weren't for the fact that this room wasn't the same as it used to be, it probably wouldn't feel like decades had passed.

In fact, Char feels the same way, his life is very monotonous, but he also has a lot of hobbies, but time always flies.

Maybe that's the case for an immortal like him.

The bedroom is larger than it used to be, with a small balcony on one side and a large floor-to-ceiling window separating the exterior from the interior.

Through the balcony, you can see the snow-covered peaks, and the blizzard is raging outside, and even the castle seems to be swallowed by the blizzard.

This is the depths of the Himalayas.

"Are you going out?"

Hearing this, Char turned his head, and a little girl was leaning against the door, half of her body hidden behind the door, looking at Char timidly.

The girl looked only three or four years old, and her appearance was very delicate, as if God had made it up with his own hands, especially the dark green eyes, which revealed a sense of tranquility.

Her long black hair was casually draped, but it also seemed to have a slight dark green luster.

Char smiled softly with a soft look in his eyes, "yes, go out to meet a few old friends." ”

The girl was silent for a moment, she seemed to want to talk to Xia Yaduo, but she couldn't find anything to talk about for a while, and then she continued.

"And when are you coming back?"

"Before dinner."

Char walked up to the girl, picked her up, and made her sit on her right arm, she was very light, very small, Char didn't feel the weight at all when he held her.

It also smells like a baby.

The girl obviously didn't expect Char to pick herself up, and she was a little flustered, but she quickly eased up.

"Do you want to come with me?" Char whispered.

The girl nodded.

Char just carried her down the stairs and chatted as she went.

"What did your mother name you?"

"Sisi." The girl said, "That's what my mother calls me." ”

"This should be a nickname." Char said, "That means your mother hasn't named you yet?" ”

He thought for a moment, "The English name is Akaxia, and in Sanskrit, it means to glow, and it has a very special meaning.

In Chinese, it's called Xia Qian. ”

Sissi's face showed a slightly distressed look.

"What's wrong?" Char asked softly.

"There are too many names." She said.

Char smiled, "A name is just a code name, let others call you whatever you want." ”

The girl thought for a moment, "I still want to be called Sissi." ”

"Okay."

Char walked downstairs with the girl in her arms, flipped the doorknob, opened the door, and outside the door was no longer the ice and snow of the Himalayas, but a very gorgeous sea of flowers, with a rich fragrance of flowers and different kinds of flowers in full bloom.

This is the courtyard of Sahiri.

The girl had obviously never seen such a scene, and she was somewhat surprised by the scene before her.

"It's been a long time since it's been taken care of."

Char carried the girl into the garden, and there were already many weeds growing on the ground, but even then the flowers were still blooming.

"Your mother used to love this garden."

The girl's gaze scanned around the area.

Char led the girl through the small town of Sahili to a public cemetery at the other end of the town, where she stood in front of one of the tombstones.

This tombstone is connected to the burial chamber and is luxurious, like a huge yurt, but it is made of granite, and the tombstone is a door, and when it is closed, it can never be opened again.

On the tombstone, you can see a very familiar name.

【Hart Valentine】

Hart was already in his thirties when he obtained Char's fate, and his lifespan and method of death were already written in the Book of the Dead, so naturally it was impossible for him to live until now.

This day was his sacrifice day, and Char's funeral did not coincide, and he had some more important things to do, but Arthur himself was there, which caused quite a stir in Sasili.

Throughout his life, he was an absolute legend for the people of this town, and his name will remain in this town forever.

And for Char, he is also a friend who matches his personality.

Char hasn't seen him in the past few decades, and Char has always seen his aging.

He has actually experienced a lot of things over the years, such as being rebelled by his subordinates, assassinated by gunmen, and being admitted to the hospital for rescue, almost not surviving.

However, these difficulties were solved by him.

But Char never had much real sense of his death.

It wasn't until he actually stood in front of this tombstone that he might have suddenly realized that the man named Hart Valentine had disappeared forever in this world

At this moment, Char finally had something to empathize with the old man.

Everything that has been emotionally invested in the past will be vulnerable in the face of the years.

All things, in the face of eternity, are fleeting.

"What is this?" The girl in Char's arms asked.

"My friend." Char said.

Sissi raised her head and looked at the burial chamber suspiciously, "So, there's a person lying here?" ”

"Pretty much."

"Who is he?"

"A good man." Char said.

He stared silently at the tombstone, which had very few descriptions of his deeds, or rather, only one sentence:

[A good person]

This may have been left by his descendants according to his last words, and all his merits and demerits do not need to be boasted about by himself, and left to be commented on by posterity.

Char silently raised his hand, a bouquet of flowers appeared in his hand, and slowly placed the flowers in front of the tombstone.

Then he turned around and left, and since he became an immortal, he always had to accept the cycle of life and death.

After Hart's death, the Valentine family, which supported him, had many splits, mainly the independence of the families located in various parts of Europe.

However, the main body of the Valentine family still exists, but with his passing, Mafia, the organization that was established in the past to protect the village and resist the invasion, will eventually go astray from the inevitable fate of the family.
