In the western part of Cecil City, there are many forests and lush vegetation. The vast expanse of jungle provides a continuous supply of building materials, industrial raw materials and even food sources for the new Cecil collar. In the northern part of the forest, white water is used. In the place of the river, the frost forest village is gradually getting more and more lively as the rising sun rises.

This is a new village, but it is orderly and lively. The neatly arranged wooden houses are shrouded in smoke. The “new home” built of cement and masonry is dotted between these wooden houses. The wide concrete road is connected. The main buildings in the village, due to frequent cleaning, and strict sanitation system, these roads are clean and tidy, and there are no common notes on the roads in other areas of this era.

These kinds of features are the embodiment of the "Cesil order."

The lumberjack Buddy came out of the door in the morning sun. He had the heat accumulated after a meal at home, which helped him resist the cold spring in the forest. The man who cut the tree for a lifetime came to On the street, rubbed the nose that was slightly itchy in the cold wind, and then walked toward the newspaper.

As he crossed the street, he glanced at the houses on both sides. This place appeared in the heart of last year.

He still remembers that when the eight hundred refugees of Cecil had just arrived on the land, it was only a simple and poor logging camp. So many loggers and a small team of soldiers came here with an axe sword. The tent was laid down, and the original camp was not as big as the square in the center of the village. But now less than a year ago, it has become a village, and it is still a beautiful and large village tent turned into a lumberjack The lumberjack hut has been expanded and added to become a street. The resources of the support from the city are continuously sent here, just as the timber cut down here is continuously sent to the city, the cement appears, and the store appears. The village where the logging camp became turned into a name lord personally named it Frost Forest Village.

If you haven't experienced it all, Buddy can't believe that it all happened under his eyes.

More lumberjacks appeared on the streets. Buddy and these friends greeted each other. Everyone said with a smile and walked forward. On the road, someone suddenly sighed: "This place is really big."

"That is, after all, we are not idle in the winter," a lumberjack with a big beard laughed. "Let's even the bell towers are covered."

"I don't know what has changed in the city recently," Buddy muttered. "There is a change here than we can."

"I went to the city last time and saw that the west side of the city was building a new house. It was said that there were two thousand people in the buffer camp who got what it called... Oh, get citizenship," said the first opener, "but recently I have never been to the city..."

There are convenient roads and rivers between Shuanglin Village and Cecil City, but in fact the lumberjacks here do not often enter the city. Since it has become a fixed settlement, the various village facilities have been established, and the frost forest village gradually has With the ability to be self-sustaining, the workers who came here have become settled villagers. Because there are a lot of work tasks, and there is nothing to do in the city on weekdays, the people in the frost forest village usually have monthly Once in the city, once or twice, their changes to the city of Cecil often depend on the occasional return of the people who came to the city to describe, or listen to the team guards who transported goods between the village and the city.

Between the chats, everyone's topic gradually turned to guessing the changes in the city, guessing whether the lord made new things, but they did not chat for too long, the report has arrived.

Buddy wiped his nose and looked at the shack in the check-in. According to the workflow, he reported the tools after he reported here, and then went to the designated area of ​​the forest with the foreman, but what seems to happen today. Things he saw many people gathering in the small open space in front of the check-in, even their own foreman stood there.

Buddy and several lumberjacks curiously scraped together and found that the team that transported the materials arrived in the village of Frostforest. Although it was already a village, it was only a new village. Many cloths, drinks and the like still had to be transported from the city. Come over, basically at least one such team will come from the city every week.

It’s a good thing for the team to enter the village, but it’s a bit strange that everyone gathered. In order to unload the goods and hand over the things that the villagers ordered personally, the team has to stay here for a whole day. Everyone gathered here early because the team brought What new things?

When Buddy was wondering, he saw his foreman squeezing out from the crowd with a smile, and the foreman was still holding a few large papers with ink and ink that were printed with words and pictures.

"Head," Buddy rushed past. "What good things did the team bring?"

"Oh, Buddy," the foreman was obviously in a good mood, and he was quite interested in showing off. He waved the paper in his hand and said loudly, "Look, newspaper! New things coming from the city!"

"Newspaper?" Buddy stunned, and the team really brought new things, and just like every time in the past, as long as it is a new thing in the city, it must have been heard by everyone. "You mean These sheets of paper? What are you doing?"

"People can also buy books to look at," the foreman looked at Buddy and looked proud in his eyes and tone. Although he was just a little earlier than others, he bought a newspaper, but he was very angry. "This is above." There are so many things written, and even the most recent changes in the city."

"Where?" Buddy listened and suddenly went forward. "Which is written... What are you writing?"

“Here, the Baimu Street Community in Xicheng District has been completed, and new immigrants who have obtained citizenship are relocating. Here, it is said that wheat and fur have to be cut recently because they have opened up with the business road of Gülen, and there are also Is the Church of the Light of the Holy Spirit Plains crazy? They all started to burn other people's churches?"

The foreman pointed at the plates in the newspaper, and said that he had a surprised expression on his face, and then he looked at the news seriously. Buddy looked at him with a big look, but suddenly felt a depression.

He can't read it...

He recognizes the words, but only recognizes a small part. At the very least, he can spell his name and address, and read the form on the memorandum. This is the result of a few days of evening school. At night school, a teacher from the city came to give everyone a five-day class every week. Buddy went there several times, but he didn't listen carefully!

He looked at the newspaper full of words and couldn't help but get upset.

The foreman was seriously watching the contents of the newspaper, and did not care about Buddy's annoyance at all, and he saw half of it laughing again. The newspaper still seemed to write some interesting jokes or funny stories, but for Buddy. Words, everything is missed.

Even this newspaper is said to have only a few copper plates.

He knows that he can't ask the foreman to read the newspaper for himself. Even if the foreman usually has a good relationship with everyone, this kind of request is unrealistic.

Several familiar workers were crowded out of the crowd, and Buddy raised his eyelids and glanced at it. He saw that one of them was holding a newspaper in his hand and was separating the newspaper in his hand while walking. Give it to someone else.

They may have bought a copy. Although a newspaper is as cheap as a few copper plates, for many lumberjacks who just have some spare cash, it is still worthless to spend money to buy a few sheets of paper to read. "The behavior, but they are finally curious about the content of the newspaper, so the possibility of making money together is very high. Anyway, a newspaper contains several pieces, and these people can take turns to look after them.

Badi looked at the people with a little envy, and the poor people who had a hard-working origin in their hearts, who dealt with the axe saw, now walked straight like a scholar, and rolled up the newspaper like a decent. Clamping under the arm is like holding a book, really...

Really decent...

Buddy touched his pocket and suddenly bit his teeth and turned to the direction of the team.

The foreman was watching some things at this time, looked up and saw Buddy's move, couldn't help but curiously cried out behind him: "Why are you going? Quickly name!"

"I buy a newspaper!"

"Can you look at it?"

Buddy did not return: "I bought it back and slowly studied it and waited for Mr. Bernard to come and ask him!"

"Mr. Bernard" is the teacher who was sent to lecture in Frost Forest Village, a second-level clerk who works in the Office of Government Affairs.

Looking at the walk, it seemed as if he was mad at Buddy. The foreman shrugged and looked down at the newspaper in his hand.

He said to himself: "I have to put it back and put it back together. I have a few more pieces. I have a book at home."

......

In the plain of the Holy Spirit, before the meteorite fortress, Wright Iveyen looked up and looked up at the ancient fortress that stood in the southernmost part of the Holy Spirit Plain.

The black wall of the fortress has a slight grid-like brilliance in the sun. The copper that is poured in the brick wall of the city wall is shining. The builder of the meteorite fortress melts the copper and mixes the gold and copper in the copper. This magical alloy absorbs the magic from the sun when it is exposed to the sun, and releases it slowly throughout the day and night, making the entire wall strong, and this magnificent and strong fortress is exactly one hundred years ago. The product of the chaos in the fog.

It stands between the mountains at the junction of the South and the Holy Spirit Plain, and controls the only way from the South to the plain of the Holy Spirit. It even connects the north and south of the Dorgon River. It also flows through the gate on the side of the fortress. It is a The great irony symbolizes the kingdom’s complete blockade of the entire southern region. In the entire century after the fortress was completed, the south became a deliberately exiled land, and the second dynasty feared the ancient and huge Cecil family. After making a comeback and shaking the royal family, the fortress was built while constantly separating and weakening the south. It was a new "Southern Xinjiang" that wanted the meteorite fortress to be the kingdom, and threw the survivors of the Cecil family. The wasteland in the south.

This sturdy fortress is used to guard against the opening of the kingdom of this kingdom.

However, in the past century, the Cecil family has never crossed this level. They silently endured the cost of the failure of the foggy month, silently accepted the separation and suppression of the royal family, until last year, the Cecil After the ancestors' resurrection, the members of this family crossed the Rock Fortress for the first time and went to the plain of the Holy Spirit.

Wright looked up at the black high wall of the Rock Fortress, and the history of the fortress and the short time he experienced on the incredible land of exploration in the South, and then he took back his sight and sorted out his old The priest's robe, stepping toward the level.
