Chapter 50 The Train Woo Woo Woo
Black Stone City is the first human city that Dong Chen will encounter when he came out of the Horror Forest. So when the Great Elders were reading books, the Great Elder told him some things about this city.
Now that Dong Chen saw this city, the information emerged one by one.
From the perspective of the pronunciation of the human race, this city should actually be called "giving the order", and the translation of "giving the order" is actually "a burnable black stone".
In Dong Chen's understanding, that is coal.
So this city should be called "Coal City" or "Black Coal Stone City", but Dong Chen directly called this city "Black Stone City".
Because he personally feels that, cough, it sounds better to call it that way.
When you approach Blackstone City, you can see that on the road, you can see that there is a north-south mountain to the west, with abundant coal mine resources in the mountains, and most of them are open-pit mines.
What they were going to enter was the west gate of Blackstone City, which was heading towards the Blackstone Mountains to facilitate the transportation of coal.
In fact, this is the case. When they were waiting in line to enter the city gate, coal-carriages often lined up by the other side.
Every time a coal truck passes, Dong Chen will ask Tianshu to scan it. The results of the scan are high-quality coal with a carbon content generally above 90%.
This kind of scanning result is completely worthy of the name of "City of Coal" in Blackstone City, but this is not consistent with some of the things recorded in the book.
As a modern person in the earth's world, he is very clear about the formation mechanism of coal. Its formation time can be calculated in units of millions or tens of millions of years. Even the conditions for coal formation on the earth can be traced to the Carboniferous period more than 300 million years ago.
The Carboniferous Age is a representative period of great prosperity in the plant world. It is precisely because the strata formed during this period are rich in coal, so it is named "Carboniferous".
According to statistics, the coal reserves during that period account for more than 50% of the total coal reserves on the earth.
If there is so much high-quality coal on the other side star, then the previous book recorded that "there was nothing three thousand years ago, but the instructions of the "God of Science and Technology" that allowed the "scientists" to create all this", would definitely be a gild on one's face.
Of course, it is also possible that the "humans" of various races in this world gave them gold. After all, they were expelled. If they didn't say anything good to God, wouldn't they ask for trouble?
After all, it is a myth, and it is normal to exaggerate it. Even if there is really a "god", the content of the legend has long been distorted after the mouths of ten people, and it will definitely be added with some personal understanding and subjective ideas.
With this doubt, Dong Chen followed the convoy into the city.
The tall and wide city gates allow several cars to move forward side by side, and the planning here is very good, with the way to enter the city on one side and the way to leave the city on the other.
Moreover, there are strict disciplines for entering and leaving the city. Just like the previous part of entering the city, it is directly divided into four parts and isolated by wooden isolation railings.
The same is true for the out-of-town part.
The entrance passage of coal trucks is close to a quarter of the door wall. The caravans' vehicles are next to the coal lane, and the walkers and those riders are next to the caravan lane, and the innermost one is for the people of the Science and Technology God.
Even if you are idle now, you cannot let others use it.
Dong Chen heard from the people next to him that this model was invented by an engineer from the Science and Technology Cult, which greatly improved the efficiency of entering and leaving the city.
"This Technological God Cult really cares about everything."
After entering the city, the buildings in the view became denser. There were dense buildings on both sides of the road, and various alleys were distributed among them. After passing through an alley, there would be a relatively wide alley, allowing ordinary vehicles to pass through.
Their architectural characteristics combine the natural conditions here. Wood and stone are the main materials of the building. The buildings on both sides of the avenue are at least two floors, and Dong Chen saw the five-story building at the highest.
I don’t know if the slope-shaped roof covered with tiles is because there is a lot of rain in this place, or if they have such a hobby.
There are many green plants on both sides of the road. Dong Chen also saw some luminous plants. The road surface is paved with neat thick stone slabs, with very small gaps. The pure wooden wheels do not feel obvious bumpy when pressed on.
The overall city has a sense of urban planning and looks very neat.
There were many people coming and going on the road, and Dong Chen finally saw the diversity of the race of the Star.
The human race is still the most common, but he still saw the elves. Their figures are indeed as slim as legendary, and they have iconic pointed ears, but they are not particularly good-looking, they are just slightly longer and slightly pointed than the ears of ordinary human races.
Moreover, men and women can clearly distinguish between men and women, and there will be no confusion about A, but the elf man looks... well, a little pretty.
In addition to the elves, Dong Chen also saw dwarves, which were exactly the opposite of elves. If the human race had a standard figure, then the elves would be slightly thin and the dwarves would be slightly short and strong, and the difference was not too much.
It’s just that they are a bit strong and look a little wide, so they feel much shorter.
And not all men have big beards. At least Dong Chen saw that the younger dwarfs had a clean face, but the elderly dwarfs did have more beard-raising hobbies.
Moreover, there is no steam equipment in these buildings. Dong Chen doesn't know, but there are no steam cars on the road. The protagonist on the road is still an animal car, but it is no longer the large biceratopsaurus, but there are many smaller bipedal dinosaurs or quadruped mammals pulling the cart.
It is no longer a heavy cargo vehicle, but just a carriage or a light cargo.
However, most people are still walking and running if they have urgent matters.
"Didn't you say there is a train? Why do you look like a "another world"?"
Looking back and forth at everything around, Dong Chen became more and more confused as he looked at it.
Where is the agreed train?
Although Dazhuang and Longbak next to him didn't know what the other world was, they still knew a little about the train he mentioned, because the uncles who had been out in recent years said when they came back, "The huge black long car can spit out white smoke, like a monster!"
"Yes, I want to see the train too, and the seniors said there were also "woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"Woo-Woo-Woo-"
It was really like what he said. As soon as Dazhuang's voice fell, two more authentic voices rang out.
When everyone heard the sound, they saw that after the beast car turned a corner, a train appeared on their right. It was a train about to enter the station, reminding the passengers in the station with the sound of a whistle.
The huge black front is dragging a long body, and behind the front is a coal-loaded car, and behind is a wooden carriage.
It has slowed down to a very low speed and is slowly entering the station. White steam sprays out from some special pressure relief pipes, covering it with a mysterious white mist.
Dong Chen thought he had returned to the steam era of the earth. He did not come back to his senses until he saw the pointed ears among the passengers.
