Chapter 157 Frost Town
Fifteen minutes passed quietly amidst everyone's anticipation and nervousness.
Finally, with a slight sound of brakes, the train slowly stopped beside a seemingly quiet town.
A different scene appeared on both sides of the road, as if someone had carefully cleared the snow with a shovel. The thick snow on the ground was gone, replaced by a thin layer of frost.
The frost was like fine silver sand, flashing a faint cold light under the sunlight, adding a bit of chilly atmosphere to this cold town.
"Everyone, hold still. Let's get off the car in front of us after the people get off. I'll take this opportunity to tell you about the town where our training camp is located."
Gao Rui's loud and unquestionable voice rang out in the carriage, instantly quieting down the crowd who were originally a little agitated because they were about to get off the train.
"Luoyang City has four small towns: Ice Town, Frost Town, Snowdrift Town, and Winter Snow Town."
Gao Rui stood in the middle of the aisle, scanning everyone in the carriage, and introduced them seriously and earnestly.
"Among them, Xuepiao Town and Dongxue Town are the two towns closest to the border. They are basically guarded by the military and high-level players. They are heavily guarded and have an extremely important strategic position."
"And our training camp base this time is in Fengshuang Town."
Having said that, Gao Rui paused slightly, and a different light seemed to flash in his eyes.
"Get off the train and pick up your luggage. Once you get off, quickly form four lines and stand. Do you understand?"
Gao Rui spoke loudly again, his voice echoing in the carriage, making everyone's ears numb slightly.
"Understood!" Everyone responded in unison, with a firmness in their loud voices.
Although the cold weather and the unknown training camp life made everyone feel more or less nervous, at this moment, under Gao Rui's request, they still showed the necessary discipline.
Outside the car, a lot of people gradually gathered. Soon, everyone outside stood in a row, quietly waiting for the follow-up arrangements.
Nanyu also followed the people in the car, slowly stood up and prepared to get off.
As soon as he stepped out of the carriage, the bone-chilling coldness pounced on him like a ferocious beast.
The hot air he exhaled turned into ice chips before it could dissipate, and fell to the ground, as if it was the most direct "greeting" from the cold weather.
Nanyu's exposed hands, holding the luggage, were white and slender. Under the invasion of the cold, they were soon frozen red, like ripe cherries in winter, forming a sharp contrast with his originally fair skin.
His cheeks and nose tip were also a little red from the cold, and he looked extremely beautiful, like a fragile piece of porcelain, delicate yet revealing a sense of fragility that made people want to protect him.
"Hey, why do you, a man, have long hair?" Jiang Shaoxing also got out of the car. He walked with a seemingly nonchalant pace, went straight to Nanyu's ear, and asked in a familiar manner.
There was curiosity and a hint of teasing in that tone.
"What's it got to do with you?" Nan Yu didn't even look at Jiang Shaoxing, but just looked straight ahead and responded coldly.
The icy tone seemed to make people feel even colder than the cold air around them.
"Tsk, the weather here is not as cold as yours." Jiang Shaoxing clicked his tongue and shrugged slightly, as if he didn't care about Nanyu's cold reaction.
After saying that, he stood next to Nanyu in a carefree manner, with his hands in his pockets, looking around casually, as if he was strolling in his own yard.
Because the two of them were sitting at the front, they got off the bus first.
Naturally, the two of them stood in the front and became the focus of everyone's attention.
The people who got off the bus later, one after another, all stood behind a few people in an orderly manner. Soon, a long line was formed.
Gao Rui looked serious and stood upright next to Nanyu and the others.
After getting off the train, what came into view was an extremely spacious and empty platform. The platform was so large that it seemed to be able to accommodate thousands of troops.
At this moment, all the people who came to participate in the training camp have lined up in an orderly manner into a long line. At first glance, it looks like a long winding dragon.
The instructors accompanying each train also stood upright beside their respective teams in accordance with regulations.
Immediately afterwards, a figure slowly walked out from the passage next to the platform.
I saw that this man was wearing a dark green military coat. The coat was thick and straight, and it made him look tall and strong.
Looking up, his face was covered with traces of vicissitudes and wind and frost. Those wrinkles seemed to be the marks of time, telling of the countless storms and hardships he had experienced, and also showing his extraordinary experience.
He walked with steady and powerful steps to the center of the team. He first stopped and solemnly adjusted his clothes, straightened the collar of his dark green military coat, and smoothed the corners of his clothes. Then he raised his head.
He scanned the crowd in front of him with a sharp gaze, and then spoke in a loud and penetrating voice:
"Welcome everyone to Fengshuang City. I am the supreme commander of this entire accompanying train. Now I will lead everyone into Fengshuang City and head to the training base."
His voice echoed in the empty platform and reached everyone's ears clearly.
"Now everyone, stand at ease and attention!" He gave the order again, his voice filled with unquestionable majesty.
After hearing the command, everyone almost subconsciously and in unison performed the gestures of at ease and attention. Their movements were quick and neat, without any delay.
The commander looked at everyone's neat and orderly movements, nodded with satisfaction, a hint of relief in his eyes.
"Okay, now start with train 804 and follow me. The rest of the trains 805 to 901 all follow behind."
The commander-in-chief's loud and powerful voice reached everyone's ears clearly. After giving the order, he turned around without hesitation and walked towards the passage on the side of the platform with steady and firm steps.
All the crew members on Train 804 took action immediately after hearing the order.
They quickly organized their teams, kept a uniform spacing, and followed the commander-in-chief in an orderly manner, moving steadily towards the passage.
Everyone's eyes revealed curiosity and anticipation for an unknown journey, and the rhythm of their footsteps seemed to carry a sense of mission.
Next came the crew of Train 805, who also followed the team of Train 804 in an orderly manner and lined up in order.
Then, everyone from trains 806 to 901 followed suit and lined up in an orderly manner, forming a long, orderly line. This massive line, like a long, winding dragon, slowly passed through the dimly lit passage.
When everyone passed through the passage, a bustling scene of a small town instantly came into view.
The streets of the town are lined with all kinds of dazzling things, which are dazzling.
There are colorful and exquisitely crafted small handicrafts that sparkle charmingly under the sunlight; there are various special snack stalls emitting bursts of fragrance, and the tempting aroma permeates the air, making people's stomachs stir.
There are also some small stalls selling daily necessities, and the stall owners are warmly greeting passers-by.
The streets are bustling with activity in teahouses and taverns. From time to time, bursts of laughter and the crisp sound of teacups colliding can be heard, as tea drinkers are leisurely sipping tea and chatting.
The conversations are filled with the comfort of life; the pub is much more lively and noisy, with the shouts of drinking games, the clinking of glasses and people's laughter intertwined, as if telling stories full of the flavor of life.
Looking down the street, children were playing and running carefree. Their rosy little faces were filled with innocent smiles as they chased each other, laughed and played, their clear laughter echoing through the streets, adding a bit of vitality and energy to this bustling town.
There's a roadside stall selling roast duck, roasted to a golden, crispy finish, emitting an alluring aroma. The owner, a warm and honest man, always expertly cuts and wraps the duck before handing it to a customer. He always smiles and tosses the cut duck buttocks to the eagerly watching dogs squatting nearby.
As soon as the puppies saw the duck butt flying over, they jumped on it happily, scrambling for this delicious "snack". They looked so cute.
Ever since Nanyu traveled here, he seemed to have been experiencing all kinds of hardships, dangers and excitement. It seemed that he had not seen this scene full of human life and bustling with the familiar and intimate atmosphere of his previous life for a long time.
This bustling town made him dazed, immersed in this long-lost warm atmosphere.
