She Is Not a Witch Chapter 100: Go south by boat

The lively New Year celebration ended happily. As the head of state, Lorraine Hill attended the final curtain call ceremony and met representatives from all over Luojing, as well as some outstanding craftsmen, R&D personnel, etc.

That night, grand fireworks rose in the night sky and bloomed together. The gorgeous and huge fireworks flooded the sky, and the golden rain streaked across the sky, leaving long afterimages. Many old people, children, men and women in the city stood like this In the streets and alleys, watching the fireworks rising slowly and then in full bloom, although the last time Luo Jing set off a large number of fireworks was only three or four years ago, but now it feels faintly like a lifetime away.

The Plantagenet Dynasty ended, a new country was slowly established, new and strange things that had never been seen before began to appear on the streets, students came from all over the city, dressed in different races, and the airships in the sky were constantly coming and going Floating boats and steam iron ships shuttled across the river all announced that many drastic changes had begun to take place in this country.

In the new year, Chun Lisi finally compiled new teaching materials and began to popularize them to the whole world. Secondary schools, and institutions of higher learning in the state capital.

Essentially, universities are composed of major factions. They are not only places for learning, but also participate in actual production, and complete tasks and missions issued by certain countries. Their recruitment of members is based on demand, that is to say, when the faction When there is a shortage of people in the industry, they will recruit a large number of students, otherwise they will not expand enrollment at will.

This ensures that the disciples or members who enter the big faction are all aiming at specific positions, even if there is a small amount of redundancy, they will not deviate too much, so as to avoid the waste of the so-called mismatch between students and actual needs.

After the gradual establishment of the education system, schools around the country began to be established according to the plan. In the early stage, due to the shortage of teachers, they would be replaced by some disciples. After that, we will gradually fill in the teachers of middle schools, and after eight years, we will ensure that the teachers of institutions of higher learning will be fully assembled.

Currently all schools are public, elementary schools are exempt from examinations, secondary schools have moderately difficult examinations, and higher education institutions have more difficult examinations. In the future, there will be sufficient educational resources, and the number of students will be appropriately relaxed to allow 80% of the students Students can enter higher education institutions to study. Among them, the tuition fees of primary and secondary schools are exempted, and institutions of higher learning will charge part of the tuition fees to offset expenses. There is not much difference between entering a faction and entering a job. 60% of the time is involved in actual work, and 40% of the time is spent on further studies.

After the establishment of the education system, the first national census and the compilation of household registration have gradually begun. It is expected that the information of the country will be collected by the end of the year, and then land distribution will be carried out, and granaries will be gradually established in various places to ensure the farmers. income and equilibrium prices.

When the work of this year is roughly arranged and the future plans are made, the time has slowly come to May, and Lorraine Hill also has time to visit and watch around Luojing, knowing the current policy implementation situation .

The weather has warmed up, and the Nightless River flowing through Luojing is also sparkling, bustling with light and breeze. There are boats passing by on the river, including roaring steamboats and a large number of people. Old-style wooden boats, and a small number of new-style fuel-powered boats, they are loaded with various goods, driving this gradually prosperous trade.

From the snow-capped mountains in the north, along the hills and plains, all the way to the east, the river flowing into the Yellow Sea became the main artery in the middle of the dynasty. The industries along the river flourished. The spinning and weaving industry in Moshangzhou, The grains of Hedaizhou, as well as the special products of the states along the Yellow Sea, all rely on this waterway for transportation, and the inland river and inland sea trade has developed rapidly.

The country's first railway was also confirmed this year. The current plan is to build the main railway from Longquan Bay-Huiluzhou-Luojing to open up the trade between the inland and the outer sea. The next step is Nanfeng The railway from Muqingzhou to Muqingzhou on the south bank of the Yellow Sea. (The map is set in the comment area, and it is available in the book friend group, welcome to check~)

The last is the Beihaifu-Beishongzhou-Beifushancheng-Luojing railway. After the construction of the three main railway lines is completed, it is like installing a skeleton for the two wings and tail of a dragon, and the states and counties along the way will develop rapidly. . On this basis, it will continue to expand until all states and counties across the country are connected to the railway network, which is planned to be completed within ten years.

After dealing with the current affairs and plans, Lorraine Hill has a few more weeks of free time. This time, she plans to go to Qilei Qizhou once. This is a place where there are many alien races in the dynasty. Some systems The construction of the building will be more sensitive, and she needs to actually go and see it. In addition, she also wants to meet a witch there, as well as the Ye family who moved here.

I don't know if Yeling has grown up now, Lorraine Hill had a reverie before going out, and then embarked on the journey after some disguise.

Because she was not in a hurry, she did not fly directly there, but took the new type of transportation in the Dynasty to experience the situation along the way.

So, a girl with dark chestnut hair, wearing a coffee-colored coat, a long plaid skirt, black-rimmed glasses, and carrying a simple suitcase walked into the river port in the south of Luojing City.

In the port, there are many ships docked, some of them whistled, started slowly in the water waves, and headed for the distance.

"This is the passenger ship to Hedaizhou. Please use your tickets to board the ship in an orderly manner." Passengers on the passenger ship knew the procedure, and he repeated it over and over again.

At the entrance of the boarding ship, several strong guards stopped the people who jumped in the line, and after some corrections and lectures, the line gradually became orderly.

Slowly, when Lorraine Hill boarded the ship, about two-thirds of the passengers had already passed by, and it was no longer crowded at this time.

"Miss, please show your ticket." After seeing Lorraine Hill, the more serious ticket inspector just now slowed down his words slightly.

It's not that he's biased or anything like that, but after spending the whole morning with those passengers who messed around and tried to explain, this intellectually beautiful girl looked very reassuring.

"This is my ticket." Lorraine Hill handed out his boat ticket, which had a steel stamp and a blue stamp on it, with the name and time of the boat printed on it.

"That's right, I wish you a pleasant journey." Rarely, the ticket inspector remembered the welcome words he had to say during the training, and let this gentle and lovely girl board the boat.

After boarding the boat, it started to be a little noisy, and then people's novelty dissipated a little, and then gradually quieted down. Lorraine Hill also had time to look at the facilities in the boat.

Compared to the luxury cruise ship she used to take on Ubere, this passenger ship is much simpler. After all, many things in China have just started. The ship uses a lot of wooden furniture and facilities, and the cabin is divided into three floors. , Up and down, can take about 200 passengers and about 40 crew members.

After waiting for a while, the passenger ship slowly slid into the river with the roar of its siren, then turned its bow and sailed towards the east.

On the way, Lorraine Hill looked at the scenery along the coast. Many towns were under construction, some were building roads, some were constructing water conservancy facilities, and many carriages towing goods had begun to appear on some newly built roads.

In a few years, there should be motor vehicles on the road.

Sitting by the window, there was an open diary on Lorraine Hill's lap, recording what he had seen and thought along the way. Although some people wanted to strike up a conversation during the journey, they all refused because of this girl. No one came forward either.

Now is not the previous years of turmoil. The laws in the early days of the dynasty were strictly enforced and supported by the army. Many door-to-door hunting methods are beyond the imagination of ordinary people, including but not limited to, summoning ghosts to inquire, sending special monsters to search, using special divination rituals to track down your belongings, and so on.

In the era of extraordinary power, the cost of breaking the law has also increased a lot.

Looking at the thriving scene along the coast, Lorraine Hill also arrived at Hedaizhou, the destination of the passenger ship, within two days without knowing it. For ordinary people, the next journey is to take a carriage, but she Instead, you can walk over.

It is more free and convenient to walk over by yourself. You can stop at any time without saying anything, and you can also enter the mountain villages along the way to check, and you can easily transfer. Therefore, Lorraine Hill did not choose a horse-drawn carriage for the rest of the journey.

In this way, stop and go along the way, Lorraine Hill looked at the implementation of policies in various states and counties, and then recorded his experience along the way until he stopped at Yanyu Island.

Looking at the tall and imposing gate on the mountainside from a distance, Lorraine Hill hesitated for a while, and decided to go in for a visit.

Because I accidentally participated in that special sacrifice when I was passing by Yanyu Island, and it was also the time when I came into contact with the practice method of the Dragon Sequence. I haven't paid a good visit since then, and I'm a little ashamed to say it. The year before last, the various factions in the world were too busy to discuss in detail.

Thinking so in his mind, Lorraine Hill walked up the long stairs with a light rattan suitcase.

The residents in the city looked at the girl with some curiosity, but they didn't exclaim in surprise. After all, this is also a big city of the state, and they have seen many western travelers, and even the elves passing by occasionally.

When they came to the huge three-dimensional archway where the phoenix was flying, several guarding disciples asked about the origin of this chestnut soft-haired girl.

"I met a senior in the faction before, so I came to visit." Knowing that it would be difficult to get credit for saying this, Lorraine Hill paused for a moment, took out a letter from the box and handed it to this person disciple.

Looking at the emblems of the flame of return and the phoenix owl on the greeting card, this disciple was much more cautious, and did not immediately refuse, but asked the younger brother behind him to send it to the elders in the faction for questioning.

"Please wait a moment, this girl." He looked about 30 years old, about the fifth level of cultivation, with a pendant carved with red jade hanging on his waist, he should be the second generation disciple of the sect.

During the waiting period, this disciple also curiously asked about the origin of Lorraine Hill.

"I'm from the Western Continent, and I've been to the Eastern Continent before." Lorraine Hill looked at the scenery of the red leaves on the mountain, and said in the gentle summer wind.

"That was the seventh year after the world changed. At that time, a grand sacrificial ceremony was held in the city, and many scenes of waving Yanray lanterns were seen..." There was a trace of nostalgia in her words.

"That time, when I was a child, I also played in the street with my family. I remember that the night market snacks were delicious, and my mother complained that I spent too much money." Feeling up.

Then the two chatted for a few more words. The disciple was a little curious about the appearance of this young girl, but he didn't ask directly, after all, this kind of thing is not polite.

"Brother, I asked the uncle of Huoyetang, let this lady come in." The disciple who asked before trotted over.

"Okay, miss, please." As he spoke, the disciple led Lorraine Hill to the inside of the mountain gate.

Because the invitation from Lorraine Hill was not considered a high-level invitation, it is estimated that the other party thought it was just an ordinary true disciple of the Xiangyu Sect, so he was not surprised.

On the mountain road along the way, there are neat fiery red sycamores, which are bright in color and faintly exude a scorching breath. It seems that they are not ordinary varieties.

It is said that Chifeng brought out the seeds of the Huowu tree in the mountain of the Yellow Sea, many of which were given to Yuyan Hongmen, because the land here is suitable for planting.

Although there is still a gap compared to the fire sycamore tree where the phoenix lives, the quality is not low. Lorraine Hill estimated in his heart that it probably has a fifth-level gold-level evaluation.

In the Maple Leaf Garden where I used to live, the red maple tree used to be at the seventh level, but now it has advanced to the eighth level, and the fire sycamore tree on the Yellow Sea Mountain is also at the eighth level, and the tree is very slow to advance. Because of the lack of self-mobility and ability to change, some problems often require external help to solve them, so high-level trees are so rare.

Through the stairway full of fallen leaves, Lorraine Hill came to the front hall of the Yuyan Red Ray Gate, where an old man was already waiting for her.

"Hello, little friend." He stepped forward to greet him and asked someone to bring tea, and then asked about Lorraine Hill's purpose in detail.

"Actually, I have also practiced some of your sect's methods, and this time I also want to come to discuss it."

When he heard it at first, the old man frowned slightly, but he opened his mouth in surprise when he saw the increasingly hot aura and magic power emanating from the girl.

It is not uncommon for the practice method of the door-to-door sect to be exiled. After all, it has been hundreds of years, how could it be completely kept secret, but it did not come to the door, so it declined or was replaced, because the practice of any method needs supporting things. Difficulties and nodes can not only be solved by reading books. There are countless seniors in the faction who taught you the experience of stepping on the pit, and recorded the various problems encountered in the practice of this method, as well as the supporting materials and medicines, solutions, the required secret environment, etc. The reason for fearing that the method will be left outside, if someone can really succeed in practicing and advancing only by relying on the knowledge in the book, that is a rare genius, and it is a good thing to absorb it into one's own family.

"Miss, can you tell me your name?" Looking at Lorraine Hill who faintly possessed eighth-level strength, this old seventh-level true disciple had no choice but to respect him modestly.

"This..." Lorraine Hill looked at the people around her. She didn't like lying very much, but she didn't want to embarrass each other.

"It's not convenient for me to say my real name now, but you can call me Mesia." The girl pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose.

"Miss Mei, please wait a moment, I'll call all the masters over here." Then the huge flame-bathed Yumen gradually became lively.

Uh, obviously wanting to keep a low profile, Lorraine Hill watched a few breaths gradually rising outside, regretting it in his heart.

Forget it, let's show it a little this time, and then pass the improved method back to the Yuyanhongmen.

Now she is no longer practicing the original version of the method, but a new 3.0 version of the method that Suqin, Chifeng, personally suggested.

The sun in the sky slowly turned towards noon, and bells began to ring in Yanyu Mountain City, and then amidst a burst of fiery red piercing through the air, many disciples from the faction gathered at the lecture altar on the mountain behind the main hall.

For a whole afternoon, Lorraine Hill stood on the altar with a warm welcome and talked about the new practice method and experience, so that everyone in the Yuyan Red Ray Sect couldn't help but immerse themselves in it, until the sun was completely sinking. Surprised to wake up.

And this is just the beginning, and then Lorraine Hill stayed here for three more days before explaining the experience of the practice.

However, I can't stay here any longer. Lorraine Hill feels that if she stays any longer, her identity will be exposed. She has already heard that the other disciples of Chifeng's direct descendants have also rushed over. If I go down, I'm afraid people will see through my identity, and that would be embarrassing.

It's really embarrassing for me to pretend to be a phoenix.

Finally, Lorraine Hill began to bid farewell amidst the mournful farewell of everyone in the Yuyan Red Ray Sect.

"This is some experience I have recorded over the years, and I will give it to Senior Sister Xiangxia." The seat of Yu Yanhong Ray Gate, Feng Xiangxia.

She is dressed in fiery red crimson clothing, with gardenia yellow firewood prints and feather decorations on the hem. It is very bright and gorgeous, and it is impossible for ordinary people to suppress this kind of clothing, but she does have a kind of classical and simple beauty, which is amazing.

"Thank you Mesia, you were the one who helped me in the sacrifice back then. Although it has been many years, I still feel this familiar aura." , smiled and looked at the young girl in front of him.

"I know you don't want to show your name to cause trouble~IndoMTL.com~ But if you come to Red Ray Gate again in the future, we will still treat you with the highest courtesy. If you need help, you can come to us."

"Thank you, Senior Sister Xiangxia, for your kindness. I will come again in the future, but this time I will say goodbye first." Lorraine Hill looked at her holding the suitcase in front of her, bent to return the greeting, and then raised her head , smiling.

Then she turned and left, walking down the steps step by step in front of everyone's eyes.

Pieces of flaming sycamore leaves rolled up in the breeze, and flew up from the terraced circles, making a soft clattering sound, and then the girl's figure disappeared into the flaming red leaves.

Looking at the direction in which the girl was leaving, Feng Xiangxia looked at the leaf that fell into her hands, a line of golden words quietly appeared in it, and then burned quickly and dissipated into the air.

The people behind her didn't notice anything yet, but her eyes were full of water, she clasped her hands together, and closed her eyes to pray.

Thank you, it turns out that His Majesty Chifeng is still somewhere in the world.
