Chapter 211: Iron Gate Fort
Li Banfeng stayed in the carry-on room for a full sixteen hours before coming out.
Staying for so long, it's been well thought out.
First, he wasn't sure if Ling Miaoying would hook up, and he had to let the lady clean it up.
Fortunately, the lady didn't find a hook on him.
Second, he wasn't sure if Ling Miaoying would chase the train, or when the train would stop.
If Ling Miaoying chased after the train, or if the train stopped directly in Green Water City, and Li Banfeng quickly appeared, then his situation would be the same as if he hadn't escaped, and he was still under Ling Miaoying's control.
In terms of cultivation, Li Banfeng is far inferior to Ling Miaoying, and there is also a gap in experience, even compared to the magic weapon, Li Banfeng did not take advantage, under the control of Ling Miaoying, Li Banfeng was definitely dead.
The only thing that can be counted on is to live with you, and it is the wisest choice to hide in your house for a while.
But what if Ling Miaoying got on the train and picked up the key?
Isn't Li Banfeng afraid?
He was afraid, but it was useless to be afraid.
If Ling Miaoying really found the key and he wanted to pick it up, Li Banfeng couldn't stop him at all.
So Li Banfeng prepared for the worst.
If Ling Miaoying picked up the key, he should take it back to study, and after studying for more than ten hours, he would definitely be tired and keep the key somewhere.
It was now two o'clock in the morning, and Ling Miaoying was most likely sleeping, this was the best time for Li Banfeng to think of to escape.
Coming out of the carry-on room, Li Banfeng found that he was still on the train.
This meant that Ling Miaoying didn't pick up the key.
This is a relatively ideal situation for Li Banfeng.
All he had to do now was wait quietly in the carriage until the train arrived, then get off and find a way back to Greenwater City.
The last time he took the train, Li Banfeng didn't open the curtains to look out.
This opportunity is rare, Li Banfeng stood on the edge of the carriage and carefully admired the scenery outside the car.
There was nothing to enjoy, the night was deep and dark, and you could only see the silhouettes of the trees rapidly receding on both sides of the road.
After looking at it for a while, the conductor reminded him: "When the train enters the hole, you lie down first." ”
Li Banfeng hurriedly lay down in the coal pile with the conductor.
When did this conductor come?
Li Banfeng didn't even notice it at all.
When the train passed through the cave, the conductor stood in front of Li Banfeng and asked, "Why are you on this train?" ”
Li Banfeng thought for a moment and gave a very reasonable explanation: "I have a ticket!" ”
He handed the ticket to the conductor.
The conductor looked at the ticket and gave Li Banfeng: "It's not a ticket for this train." ”
"Really?" Li Banfeng looked at the ticket carefully, then looked at the train carefully, and asked with a shocked face, "What is the number of this train?" Did I get on the wrong bus? ”
Li Banfeng felt that his acting skills were very realistic, but this did not impress the conductor.
The conductor said expressionlessly: "This is the 1151st train, and you are going to take the 1173rd train.
And this is a truck, and you have to sit in a bus. ”
When Li Banfeng heard this, he quickly put away the ticket and apologized again and again: "The first time I took the train, I accidentally got on the wrong train, and when the next stop arrived, I got off immediately." ”
The conductor's thoughts were different from Li Banfeng's: "If you let you get to the next station, it will be my serious dereliction of duty." ”
Li Banfeng thought for a moment and said, "Then wait for the temporary parking, and I'll get out of the car immediately." ”
"There are no plans for a temporary stop on this train."
"Then I'll bother you to arrange a temporary parking lot."
The conductor still shook his head: "Arranging temporary parking at will is also my dereliction of duty." ”
Li Banfeng frowned slightly: "Then what are you going to do?" ”
"I suggest you get out of the car immediately."
"If you don't stop, how can I go down!"
Woo~
A whistle sounded, and an iron pole protruded from the carriage.
Li Banfeng was stabbed off the train by the conductor and fell into the woods next to the tracks.
Before being stabbed, Li Banfeng tried to resist, but was unsuccessful.
In Puluozhou, don't offend the flight attendants, Li Banfeng really appreciated this iron law.
What is this place?
Li Banfeng patted the dust on his body and tried to distinguish the direction.
The direction can be distinguished, but Li Banfeng doesn't know his location.
Heading back along the railway?
Li Banfeng had just taken a few steps when an inexplicable chill suddenly hit.
There is danger.
The source of the danger is not difficult to determine.
Ling Miaoying must have suspected that I was on this train, and he might be chasing me along the way.
Ling Miaoying didn't know where I got off the train, and it was safe to stay away from the railway as soon as possible.
Li Banfeng looked at the technique of seeking good fortune and avoiding evil, and walked through the forest, walking a long way and walking all night.
The road to the forest is not easy to walk, and it is constantly dangerous, Li Banfeng has just arrived, and he has been very cautious all the way.
At dawn, Li Banfeng walked out of the forest, passed through a canyon, and finally saw the crowd.
At the entrance to the canyon, eight gates were built, which are very exaggerated gates.
Each gate is five meters wide and eight meters high, one left and one right, lined up in a row, inlaid under the four door frames, blocking the entire canyon.
Although they were not close, Li Banfeng could see that these gates were very thick and heavy, and the material was sturdy.
How much manpower does it take to push this door open?
What's behind the gate?
Is it a secret realm?
Or a tomb?
Or is it ......
Whew~Whew~
What was that?
The train is coming after you?
Ling Miaoying chased after her?
Li Banfeng heard the unique spitting sound of the steam train, and he trembled with fright.
Looking around, Li Banfeng didn't see the train, but saw the entrance of the canyon, and the gate on the far left opened.
Whew~Whew~
He didn't see the person who opened the door, only black smoke and white mist spitting out the door panel.
Steam gates?
And this construction?
Whining~
Two whistles sounded, and the door opened completely.
Li Banfeng took a few steps towards the gate, not perceiving the danger.
He needed to find someone to ask for directions, just in time to see who was controlling the steam gate.
But when he got to the back of the door, he saw no one but a huge table clock.
The table clock is two meters high, and the huge pendulum swings back and forth, which can completely reflect Li Banfeng's whole body.
At the back of the dial are gears that drive large connecting rods that control the valves on the pipes.
Li Banfeng studied the basics of machinery in college, and after watching it for a long time, he seemed to see some clues.
This clock has a chronograph function and a timer function.
It's seven o'clock in the morning, and when the time comes, the clock's mechanism automatically opens the valve, and the steam engine drives the door and opens it.
High-tech!
Li Banfeng has been in Green Water City for so long, and he has never seen such a steam automatic door.
The steam valve is very precise, the door is opened and closed without human control, the door shaft is limited by the switch, the door is opened to the position, and the valve will be closed naturally.
But someone should do the boiler burning, right?
Don't tell me there are steam robots.
Li Banfeng followed the direction of the smoke to find the chimney, and then found the boiler room.
There is indeed a boiler burning in the boiler room.
There were five men in total, two with coal, two with water, and one reading the meter, recording the temperature and pressure.
Li Banfeng walked to the door and asked, "How many people, may I ask where this is?" ”
There was a lot of noise in the boiler room, and a few people looked at Li Banfeng, as if they couldn't hear what he was talking about?
Li Banfeng shouted again: "Several, I'm asking for directions!" ”
The men still didn't hear clearly, and they pointed to the sign at the door, which read: Idlers are not allowed to enter.
Li Banfeng turned around and left.
You don't have to ask these people for directions.
With such a big village, who doesn't ask?
People are busy, so we don't need to be suspicious.
There are many houses in the village, they are very dense, and the styles are very similar, they are all two-story small buildings, all of them are flat-roofed, and each small building has a large black iron gate.
Looking at the area of each small building, it is about seventy or eighty square meters, and the two floors add up to one hundred and fifty or six, and the spacing between the small buildings is also about five meters.
How did this village get so neatly repaired?
It may be that Li Banfeng came too early, and there was not a single pedestrian on the road.
If there are no pedestrians, who can you ask for directions?
Li Banfeng came to the door of a small building, knocked on the big black iron door, and waited for a while, but no one inside responded.
If this one shouldn't, go knock on the next one.
Neither should the next one.
knocked on more than a dozen in a row, and finally one of them moved.
Wow~Wow~
On the iron door, the cover of the door mirror was opened.
Wow~Wow~
The man inside looked behind the door mirror for a long time, and then opened a small window in the iron door.
"Who are you looking for?"
There was a young man standing behind the door, and through the small window, Li Banfeng could see most of his face.
His skin was very white, as if he hadn't been in the sun for a long time, his hair was a little long, but it was neatly groomed, and his lips were blue and black, and he usually shaved, but not so often.
This person's face made Li Banfeng very intimate.
But the young man didn't feel Li Banfeng's kindness, his eyes wandered around, trying his best to avoid Li Banfeng's gaze.
It was clear that he didn't like strangers.
"I'm here to ask for directions," Li Banfeng said, "I want to know what kind of place this is?" ”
The young man replied, "This is the Iron Gate Fort." ”
Iron Gate Fort?
After three points?
I actually followed the train to this place.
How can I go back now?
Go to the station, buy a ticket?
Li Banfeng has a road guide in his hand, a round-trip road guide from Blackstone Slope and Green Water City.
But does this thing work in Iron Gate Fort?
Even if it works, Li Banfeng doesn't really want to go to the station, since he came to Puzhou, the experience at the station is not too pleasant.
Come back from Shindi.
In Yao Lao's map, the location of the Iron Gate Fort was marked.
"How do I get to Xindi?"
"Which piece of new land are you asking?"
Li Banfeng recalled the markings on the map: "I'm going to Peach Blossom Lake Xindi." ”
The man thought for a moment and said, "You go out of the fort first, then turn right at the gate and go straight.
After walking for more than ten minutes, there is a fork in the road, and you can see a big willow tree at the crossing, the willow tree is very big and easy to recognize.
When you are facing the willow tree, turn left along the fork in the road, keep walking, don't turn outside along the way, just go forward, walk for half a day, you can see the Peach Blossom Lake,
Facing the Peach Blossom Lake, turn half a circle from left to right, walk to a big rock, jump into the lake, and at the bottom of the lake, you can see the new land. ”
The direction is used in front and back, left and right, not to mention east, west, north and south.
Measure the distance with time, not to mention a few miles or a few meters.
Li Banfeng felt more and more that this person had a sense of intimacy.
"Thank you." Li Banfeng took out a banknote and stuffed it to the man.
The man lowered his head: "I don't want money!" ”
It's easy to be shy and cramped, Li Banfeng seems to see an old friend.
I wanted to talk to him more, but the man across from him didn't seem to want to talk anymore.
Li Banfeng stuffed the banknote in the crack of the door and turned to leave.
The man shouted behind him, "Wait a minute. ”
Li Banfeng is not equal.
The man unscrewed the door and chased out: "I don't want your money, I forgot to tell you just now, if you can't swim, don't go to Peach Blossom Lake, you will drown." ”
Li Banfeng nodded and said, "Thank you, this money ......"
"I don't want it!" This person is a bit stubborn, stubborn that is unique to otaku.
He turned around and was about to go home, when he saw an old man driving a donkey cart into the fort.
The donkey cart was filled with sacks, and the young man walked up to the donkey cart and asked, "How much is a pound of white rice?" ”
This old man sells grain.
"Two pieces of five!" The old man stopped the donkey cart.
The young man thought it was expensive, but didn't say much.
He buys things easily and does not bargain.
"Get me a bag."
The old man took a bag of rice and gave it to the young man: "Fifty catties for a bag, one hundred and twenty-five yuan." ”
The young man nodded, counted the money, and gave it to the old man.
He buys things and gives money first.
The old man took a bag of rice and gave it to the young man, who opened the bag and looked at it: "This rice and sand is a bit much, can you change it to a bag ......?"
"It's all the same, what to change!" The old man drove away with the donkey cart.
He is not good at negotiating when he buys things.
Especially if money has already been given.
This set of characteristics is all too obvious.
This is a trait that almost every otaku has.
Li Banfeng looked at the man and couldn't help asking, "Are you a house cultivator?" ”
The man looked at Li Banfeng, did not speak, carried the rice, and went home.
The old man who drove the donkey cart smiled: "It's your first time coming to Tiemen Fort, right?" Iron Gate Fort lives in house repair! ”
Are they all home repairs?
Then stay in this good place for two more days.
It's impossible for the shadow to know I'm here, but it's a good opportunity to learn about home repair.
PS: Iron Gate Fort, a good place that people really yearn for.
