Beautiful Another World Red Tide

"Stop! Where did you come from? What are you doing here?"

Two ferocious soldiers raised their guns and held Weikener against him so that he could not go any further. They surrounded Weikener from left to right and kept looking at him, the big bags on his body, and the bags on his back. Putting on the jewelry on the girl's neck, greedy eyes kept appearing in her eyes.They like this kind of big fish from other places the most. These country people are the easiest to be bluffed, and they will obediently pay for them if they are just a few words of scaring.Especially this kind of big and small bags, they cherish their things more, lest they will be messed up by the bag.

"I came from the west to see a doctor in the capital."

Weikener opened his eyes and said sonorously that it has been more than half a year, and he has finally completed the geographical mapping of the western region, and he can come to the central province to see a doctor for Sansa.Originally, they should have arrived here three months ago, but it happened that during that time the central province was in turmoil, and the two of them had to go to the northwest to map some terrain, and then went to Jinping City in the central province to live temporarily.

After staying in Jinping City for two months, they found an opportunity to go to the imperial capital. During this period, Wei Kena also found countless doctors in Jinping City, but none of them could cure Sansa's illness, and they were powerless to her illness.Sansa's disease is not a common disease. Doctors and priests call this disease magic disease, which means that this disease cannot be cured, at least for now.Unless it is said that a great magician of the wizard level is found to have magic power for Sansa to soothe her veins, otherwise Sansa can only step into the embrace of the underworld step by step.

Naturally, Wei Kener was not reconciled to his lover walking towards the embrace of death step by step. He made his final plan in Jinping City, and went to the imperial capital to seek the help of a magician and try to cure Sansa.For this reason, he sorted out all the topographic and landform maps he had drawn before, and was waiting to exchange them for his lover's life.

Sansa's health is getting worse and worse. She can still sit up, walk and write in the west.But now her health is getting worse, and she can hardly go anywhere except on the hospital bed every day. She is too weak to walk, and she is out of breath after walking a few steps, as if she just ran 1000 meters.According to the doctor, the final preparations will be made within a year at the latest.Wei Kener is really not willing to let Sansa die like this in such a beautiful age. He is trying his best and must find a way to cure Sansa. He is more than happy.

"To see a doctor? I don't think so." The soldier on the left said with a sneer.

"You have a big bag and a small bag. You need to bring so many things to bring patients to see the doctor? I think you are clearly a spy of the peasant bandits, and you are here to spy on the information of the imperial capital!" The soldier on the left shouted suspiciously.

Other people who were about to enter the city stopped to watch the 'drama'. Obviously, it was absolutely impossible for Wei Kener to pass this checkpoint without paying.If it is light, it will be driven out, and if it is serious, it will be arrested as a peasant bandit.But looking at Wei Kener's dress, he really doesn't look like a rich man, this young man is probably about to suffer.

No one is willing to step up and say a few words, of course, stepping up to say a few words, feeling better about injustice, and then being arrested by these soldiers as peasant bandits?It is not easy to live in this world, who dares to touch the bad luck of these soldiers?

"I'm from another place, and I came here all the way. I have a certificate, and all the procedures are complete. Kind sir, please let me in." Weikener asked humbly.

"He said I was a kind sir?" The two soldiers laughed loudly with their guns in hand, and then drove the others away viciously, not allowing anyone else to watch here.This was an unlucky performance, and the others did not dare to stay here any longer, and all hurriedly left this place.

"Give me that necklace, and I'll put you in it." The soldier on the right was quite easy to talk to, and asked for a bribe.

"How can you do this?" Wei Kener took a step back and argued.

"So? What's the matter?" the soldier on the left sneered.

"This is the way things are now. If you have money, you can say anything. If you are dissatisfied, you can find someone to make decisions for you. If you have no money and no power, you still want to go to the city? Think about it!"

387 A play within a play

"It's going to be a pain if you don't keep it in order." Two middle-aged men dressed as workers stood with their arms crossed and said, looking towards the city gate from a distance.

"In these days, you can't do anything without money and power. It would be great if you could go to Zhongnan. It's really annoying to suffer this kind of uselessness every day in the imperial capital." said the bearded worker on the left.

"It will be fine. The brave men went to fight in the southeast, and all the soldiers were transferred to the southeast. The defenses in other places were empty. Our comrades have just liberated the southwest. I guess our Leszek comrades will be able to fight again by winter at the latest. I'm back." The bright-eyed worker on the right comforted me.

"What's that man's name? What's his name Wei... I think I've heard this name before." The worker on the left suddenly patted his forehead thinking.

"It's Wei Kener, I think I heard him say that." The workers on the right also thought together.

"The name is very familiar, I should have heard it in the newspaper."

"Your behavior is very suspicious."

The two soldiers guarding the city gradually surrounded Weikener, one left and one right, and were about to strike. The soldier on the left grabbed Wekener's shoulder and pressed hard, but it aroused Wekener's resistance.This action couldn't help but made the two of them laugh even more happily. If you dare to resist, you will be convicted of your crime. Even if you are not guilty or suspected, you are now a rebel who is suspected of being a peasant bandit.

"stop!"

A muffled roar stopped the actions of the two soldiers, and then the two 'gentlemen' walked quickly from behind the city gate in front of them.One of the two gentlemen wore a military uniform, and the other looked very mighty in a well-fitting suit.The two gentlemen are very handsome, and one only needs to take a look to know that they are definitely not something these two soldiers can provoke.The two soldiers quickly backed away with an apologetic smile and put away their guns, lest they offend the two gentlemen.

"I am Christie Yundalim, the head of the Second Regiment of the Winter Palace Guards, and this is Mr. Fox, the Chief Steward of the Winter Palace." The middle-aged man in military uniform with various medals on his body The officer took out his military ID card and said to them while looking at it.

"grown ups!"

"grown ups!"

The two guards quickly stood at attention and saluted the two adults. These adults were rarely seen once in several years. Even the commanders of their garrison had to bow and bow in front of these two to show respect, let alone their guards. City group, if the captain knew that they might have offended the two big shots, he would have skinned them overnight, wouldn't he?

"Is this how your guards guard the city gates?" Mr. Fox, the steward of the Winter Palace, had clean short blond hair and a well-trimmed beard, and asked with some dissatisfaction when he saw the tense appearance of the two soldiers.

"My lord, he refused our interrogation, and even resisted." The soldier on the left quickly explained.

"Call your captain." Christie also waved angrily.

"My lord!" The two guards pleaded hastily.

"Hurry up!" Christie yelled with her hands behind her back.

"It surprised you, Mr. Welkner." Mr. Fox smiled gently. He bowed slightly to salute Welkner, and then helped Welkner move a chair and sat down.

"Are you?" Wei Kener asked suspiciously.

"I am the Chief of His Majesty's Winter Palace. Your Majesty has heard of your name before, and has always admired you very much, so he specially sent me to welcome you. After receiving the letter from you, we estimate that it will be almost today. You will be there soon, so I came to the city gate to welcome you, but I don't want to see this scene, which makes you wronged." Mr. Fox comforted.

"It's nothing." Wei Kener held his bag tightly and didn't believe this man's words. Coincidentally?How can there be such a coincidence?Just rushed over to see him being bullied?They have never even met each other, so how could they be recognized all at once.

"Sir!"

Panting, the captain of the guard at the city gate ran over with a group of guards to salute Christie and stood still. The latter glanced at him impatiently, but pointed to the two guards with fearful faces and said nothing. .

"Pull it over, give me fifty lashes!" The captain of the guard immediately understood what Christie meant, and with a wave of his hand, he signaled the others to pull the two of them over to be whipped.This kind of criminal law is the best way to relieve the anger of these big men. Anyway, in the impression of the captain of the guard, if he offends someone, he won't run away with this trick.

"To tarnish the reputation of our army, you apologize to this gentleman, and then go to confinement for two days." Christie continued.

"Sir, I'm really sorry, my soldiers ran into you. Are you and your lover okay? If something happens, I'll whip him another fifty lashes!" Said.

"Forget it." Wei Kener sighed softly. He was used to this kind of scene in Jinping City and other places, but he still had some money back then, and he was more decently dressed than he is now. Embarrassed.Unexpectedly, after going around for four years, the imperial capital is still the same royal city, nothing has changed, and there is no new look at all.The biggest change in the whole city is probably that the flag on the city head has changed from an orange flag to a five-color eagle and dragon flag, right?

"Let's go, Mr. Welkner, and Miss Sansa. The carriage is already waiting there." Mr. Fox and Captain Christie stretched out their hands to invite them.

"It turned out to be him!" The worker on the right looked at the backs of the four people and seemed to remember who this Wei Kener was, and said excitedly, patting his head.

"who is it?"

"It's that Wei Kener who traveled all over the country and drew accurate maps. I didn't expect that he came to the central province!" The worker on the right continued to say excitedly.

"Hurry up and tell the comrades!" The comrade on the left couldn't laugh anymore, he grabbed the comrade's arm and whispered nervously.

"Yes, I have to tell the comrades." The comrade on the left seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter, and nodded in agreement.

"I'm going to tell my comrades that you are responsible for keeping an eye on him and see where he will go."

"Be careful, be vigilant."

Immediately after the two comrades shook hands, they went into the city together in different directions. Weikener's identity was very sensitive and special.He came to the imperial capital at this time, there must be a reason, at least this reason is very likely to be related to Weikener's identity.Wei Kena is a professional cartographer who has been to Southwest and Central South. If he told Huang Guizi all the details of those two places, the consequences would be unimaginable.

......

"Did you bring those maps and records with you when you came to the imperial capital? Those things are very helpful for us to unify the country, Mr. Wei Kener. With these maps, we will get twice the result with half the effort if we want to unify the central, southern and southwestern regions in the future. Wei Mr. Kener, if you are willing to contribute these maps to the empire, then I think with His Majesty's kindness, you will definitely become a great cartographer for the royal court, and you can go wherever you want in the future without spending a penny along the way , all the consumption is contracted by the imperial government." Mr. Fox sat on the side of the carriage, crossed his legs and said to Welkner with a smile.

"If you provide a sufficiently detailed map, then I think I can also help. I can ask His Majesty to knight you, maybe a baron, or maybe a viscount. As long as you want, it will only be a matter of time before you reach this height Things. In the name of our Yongdalim family, I assure you that these promises are as true as ice." Captain Christie also took out his cigarette and said.

"I came to the imperial capital, but actually I don't care much about titles or money." Wei Kener replied with his head down.

"I just hope that Sansa can be cured. I heard that wizards can cure Sansa's illness. I wonder if you can arrange for a wizard to treat Sansa?" Wei Kener asked again. Asked with a pleading expression at first.

"Need a mage?" The two gentlemen looked at each other in surprise and then fell silent. Arranging a mage to cure an ordinary woman was indeed beyond their reach.They can't make a decision on this matter, they have to ask Queen Aisha or Earl Browning to make a decision.His Majesty the Brave and Lord Magister both went to the front to command the battle. To be honest, it was unknown whether the Queen and the Earl could persuade those Magisters.

"We can first recruit the best doctors and pastors in the imperial capital, and treat Ms. Sansa first. Mr. Wei Kener, please believe in our sincerity. We are absolutely willing to provide [-]% help, but the arrangement of magic We can only do our best for this kind of thing about the guides. Now two of the three mages in the imperial capital have gone to the front line to fight, and only one mage is still in the imperial capital. You have to be patient and wait for us to get it. Permission is all it takes," Mr. Fox reassured.

"Why don't you go to the hotel to rest for a while, I know a hotel that is most suitable for patients to recuperate and rest. Coachman, change direction and go to the Tolia Hotel on Petrov Avenue." Commander Christie shouted to the coachman outside.

"Then I will trouble you." Wei Kener could only nod helplessly.He doesn't care about high officials and high salaries. His purpose of coming here is only to treat Sansa's illness.If that's what he's after, he's not going anywhere else while in the Southwest.Then it will be the turn of the imperial capital to win him over.

The hotel recommended by Captain Christie is indeed excellent. This is a high-end hotel with luxurious decoration, and there are big figures like Christie coming in and out.Under Christie's arrangement, Weikener quickly moved into a room and placed Sansa temporarily for a rest.

"How do you feel here? Are you in a better mood?" Weikener put down his big and small bags, and then asked with a smile to Sansa who was lying on the bed and huddled in the quilt.

"Look, how nice the big room is. If you like it, we can live there every day, or for the rest of our lives." Weikener continued to comfort him.

"Poor mouth..." Sansa showed a rare smile. Weikener was also delighted to see Sansa's smile, but just as he was about to say something, there was another knock on the door.

"Who?"

"It's me, the innkeeper, who's here to bring you lunch."

388 Shocking

"Why did the boss come to deliver the meal in person?"

Wei Kena pushed open the door with some puzzlement, and there were two people who came to deliver the food. One was an obvious boss in a suit and shook hands with him, and the other was wearing glasses and a bearded man with a chin was pushing the food. lunch car.The two walked into the room one after the other and closed the door, then looked at Wei Kener with strange eyes, as if they had something to say.

"You two..." Wei Kener asked with some doubts.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Philip, the owner of this Toria Hotel." The owner with a well-groomed face introduced himself.

"Hello." Weikener replied with a cautious nod.

"I used to be a worker at the Toliask Iron and Steel Plant, and now I'm the owner of the Tolia Hotel." Mr. Philip said with a smile.

"Toliask factory? You are!" Wei Kener asked in surprise.

"Yes, you are very right." Mr. Philip put away his smile and nodded.

"Then who are you?" Welkner asked the bearded man behind Mr. Philip again.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Wei Kener. You and I probably haven't met, but you have seen my brother-in-law, Mr. Sun Boyang." The bearded man took off his glasses and the fake red beard to reveal his true face said with a smile.

"What are you looking for me for? For the map? Or to prevent me from telling them the geography? Let me tell you, I won't accept this. I just want to save people and see a doctor. I don't know what you say I care." Wei Kener sat on the bed with his chest pressed and said seriously.

"I don't care about the southeast, central and southern central, or the imperial alliance with the central and southern. I don't stand on any side, and your civil war has nothing to do with me. I just want to paint the entire famous mountains and rivers of Yongdalim, and draw a complete picture. Come out with Geography. Now I only want to find someone to help cure Sansa, and I don’t want to fight anything else. In my eyes, it’s the same for any of you who are unified, and I don’t care.”

In order to prove his determination, Wei Kena directly rejected the possible request of Philip and Stephen regardless of the chance to chat with Sun Boyang when he went to Zhongnan.He was too worried and scared. In his eyes, Zhongnan might not be passive because of his map, but if Sansa couldn't find a doctor, then everything would be over.

"Don't worry about Mr. Weikner, we are not here to ask for maps and records. It is your personal freedom to whom you give the detailed map and who you give the atlas, and we will never interfere. We also understand that you saved Shan Miss Sha's urgent mood, we will not forcefully interfere or even snatch all of this." Comrade Philip replied seriously.

"Then what are you waiting for? You can't just come to me to catch up on the past, right?" Weike Nasong continued to ask with a sigh of relief.

"If you want to convince me, it's impossible. I said, two gentlemen, have you experienced this kind of thing? This kind of feeling that your lover is being tortured by the disease, but you can't do anything? My only life-saving straw is mine. There is no map, what can I do to save Sansa? Use your promise? Or go to Zhongnan to search for doctors and experience despair again?" Wei Kener said again.

"You are too excited. We will neither ask you nor persuade you. Do you want to give your map to the government of the brave? I think you already have the answer in your heart." Comrade Stephen and Philip They looked at each other and shrugged.

"However, I still want to say one thing. I sincerely invite you to visit the factory with me after lunch, to visit the big and small corners of the imperial capital. This process will not take a day, as long as you are willing to go, we will go before dusk You can come back." Stephen sincerely invited.

"In addition, I want to say, Mr. Weikner. Our Leszek will not be passive because of your map, but your map will definitely make the situation of comrades in the war more difficult, and there will be a bigger Casualties. Every comrade's life is precious, and they are also cherished and only once. If you need us, we will immediately contact Mother Teresa who is still in Central South. Maybe she also has a way to treat Ms. Sansa's illness. Comrade Philip took out another letter and handed it to Welkner.

"We'll be waiting for you in the carriage outside the door. If you still haven't come out of the hotel after three or ten minutes, we will respect your choice and never come to you again."

Comrade Philip and Stephen nodded together, opened the door and went out, leaving only Welkner and Sansa in the room in a daze.Sansa was staring at Welkner's face, while the latter was lowering his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

"No! I don't care about what love is like. Don't talk about whether we can leave the imperial capital, but we don't know how much time it will take us to get to Zhongnan from here. I will definitely not go, no matter what he does Said, far water can not quench near thirst, even if I am scolded, I will never do it." Wei Kener said decisively.

"Weikener, Weikener, come here."

Sansa suddenly called out to Wei Kener softly, and gently waved him to come to the bedside.After hearing Sansa's shout, Wei Kener immediately got up and walked to Sansa to sit down. He bent down to look at Sansa, and listened carefully to hear what Sansa had to say.

"Wickner, is that what you really intend?" Sansa's face was pale, but her eyes were still bright.He opened his eyes wide and gently held Weikener's hand and asked in a low voice.

"No one can stop me." Wei Kener nodded.

"That's enough, follow them, follow them for a while, to see those factories." Sansa suddenly laughed and said.

"I am also responsible for the cartography and maps you wrote. It is not up to you alone to decide whether to give them a map. Wei Kener, I have seen so many great rivers and mountains, and my life has been very colorful. I don’t need to struggle anymore. So what if I have a magician to treat me? It’s impossible for a magician to heal me for a lifetime, and I’m absolutely unwilling to continue being trapped in the imperial capital for the rest of my life after I’m out of knowledge. Wei Kener, go Follow your inner thoughts and don't worry about me." Sansa said softly.

"Ah." Wei Kener let out a long sigh, he lowered his head and held Sansa's hand tightly, not knowing how to comfort her.He just sat in front of the bed holding Sansa's hand for three or ten minutes. When Stephen and Comrade Philip decided to leave, the two of them saw the figure of Weickner coming out of the hotel and saw his sad face .

"Mr. Welkner, the people of Dalim will never forget your contribution to the cause of liberation." Comrade Philip originally had a lot to say, but when he saw Welkner's expression, he still said those words Putting the words aside, he said to Weikener with great gratitude and admiration.

"How do we visit? What do we want to visit?" Wei Kener asked calmly, looking down on everything.

"Go to visit the Tolyask factory, which is where I used to call him home." Philip opened the curtain behind the carriage and said to Welkner.

"Look in front of you first, and be mentally prepared."

On this road full of 'fireworks', Weikener saw the shops and pedestrians on both sides, and saw the real scene of the imperial capital.The imperial capital is the same as before, or even worse.I still remember the winter of [-]. At that time, the empire was hit by the wave of monsters and waterlogging, and the streets were so 'lively'.On the icy and muddy streets, those fleeing famine cuddled each other for warmth, trying to use all their strength to survive the terrible winter.How much was a human life at that time?Twenty copper coins?ten?Or five?

The streets are still so muddy, and the sweltering summer is unbearable. Under the eaves of the shops, many homeless people hide here from the sun and the scorching sun.They stare down the street and scan everyone with eager eyes, eager to find a job or be bought.These are the most tragic. In the distance, there are still the remains of a few infants scattered aside, and a few sallow and emaciated women stared at all of this with big blank eyes.

"Since the establishment of the government of the brave, the empire's oppression of farmers and workers has become more and more brutal day by day, almost to the point where people can't breathe. The taxes that farmers have to pay are shockingly high, even if the floods broke out in most parts of the central province last year, The brave still didn't sympathize with the peasants' tax reduction, but intensified the threat, and even formulated harsh laws to require the peasants to pay taxes." Comrade Philip looked at the refugees together and said.

"He did this to conquer the southeast. In order to feed his army of 25, there are countless farmers in the three provinces who are dying, and their wives and children are forced to be separated by the exorbitant taxes and crazy taxes. That's all, but he also condoned the corruption and oppression of noble officials. It was hard to survive because of the extremely high taxes, plus various private taxes and local taxes. Think about it, the imperial capital is like this, other Where can the place be better?"

On both sides of the street, apart from these refugees, probably the most poor families.They either work as factory workers or are hired by other shops as clerks.Barely living on a meager salary every month, living in hunger and depression.These people can dress a little better. They wear old patched and stained clothes and shoes. Most workers don’t even bother to wash their faces and walk on the street. Anyway, they go to bed to work, and life is apart from work. And sleep, and nothing else to do.

They were thin and ragged, their eyes were dull and they were indifferent to everything, even if Weickner cast a scrutiny look at them, they would not pay attention to them.This is the real imperial capital, the real bottom of society.The daily enjoyment and luxury life of the upper-class nobles and bourgeois officials is based on the daily labor of these people.The purpose of the existence of Leszekism is not to create a political position to compete for the right to rule the ups and downs of this Yongdalim.From the beginning of their birth, they are for these people, for these thousands of compatriots who have never appeared in history and have never been mentioned.

"This is not a civil war, but a war of liberation." Comrade Philip pinched out the cigarette in his hand and said solemnly, looking at the scene on the street.

389 There is no idle land in the world......

"I have actually seen these sufferings during my time in Wangcheng, and later I have traveled around the country and seen countless local customs. I am no longer surprised by these scenes of suffering."

Seeing the withered appearance of everything on the street, Wei Kener just shook his head and replied calmly. He grew up in Wangcheng. I've seen this scene many times.Natural disasters and man-made disasters are constantly squeezing people's living space. Farmers in rural areas have no way to survive under heavy taxes and land mergers, so they run to cities, but what about cities?Isn't the city full of disasters, and isn't it full of oppression and exorbitant taxes?

The enjoyment of feudal nobles must be based on the exploitation of the bottom. In the history of Yongdalim, large-scale disasters such as natural disasters and wars will cause many farmers and handicraftsmen to become refugees, but exploring the history The total number of refugees, if divided into 300% on average, only [-]% are forced to become refugees because of natural disasters. In the long history of [-] years, the most "moisturizing things are silent", the most lasting and continuous are those caused by man-made disasters. The general public has become refugees.

"Natural disasters continue. This year there was a wave of monsters, and next year there will be floods. Last year, there were floods in the north and droughts in the south. Not to mention farmers and workers, even landlords and business owners. How many people lost all their money? " Wei Kener said slowly.
