My Way

Chapter 16 Carriage and Distance

three days later.

At the gate of Blackrock City which had just been opened.

Ling Wuyuan got on the carriage carrying a package.

This is a large carriage pulled by four strong horses.

Not only were there a large amount of supplies stored on it, but there were also six or seven people sitting inside the carriage.

In addition to this carriage, there are three other carriages of different sizes in the convoy.

Just like this carriage, the other three carriages were also carrying a large amount of cargo and passengers.

Although the road that Ling Wuyuan and his companions are about to pass is an official highway opened up by the government and there are basically not many external dangers, this world is still populated by all kinds of bandits, ferocious beasts, even monsters, and evil practitioners.

Therefore, in order to ensure their own safety, the carriages responsible for transporting supplies between various regions and picking up passengers often form large and small convoys to act together.

This way, the safety of each party is increased.

If you are lucky enough to get a powerful practitioner as a passenger, it will greatly increase the actual safety of the journey, which is equivalent to hiring a bodyguard for free.

Of course, right now.

After looking around, Ling Wuyuan didn't see anyone who looked very strong.

Including him, there were three women and five men in total.

Five adults, one teenager, and two children.

As for what was inside the other three carriages, he didn't know.

All I can say is that I am hoping that there will be a practitioner passing by.

This also increases your own safety.

Shortly after.

The coachman began to speak.

He was a middle-aged man about forty years old.

I can only say that he looks okay, not handsome, not ugly, not fat, not thin, and doesn't have many special features.

"Our final destination for this trip is [Wucha Town]. The total journey will take about a day and a night. During this time, we will stop to rest every three hours during the day. At night, we will build a bonfire and sleep before night falls..."

While talking.

The driver pointed to something on the cart.

It was something similar to the clock that Ling Wuyuan used in his previous life.

And the time units above are basically the same as those in his previous life.

It's just that the cost of this thing is very expensive in this world.

Ordinary people need to work hard for a month or two to be able to afford it.

The driver didn't say much. In just a few minutes he explained the general procedures and arrangements on the road.

While speaking, he looked at Ling Wuyuan twice more.

Even after years of experience, it is still rare to see passengers like Ling Wuyuan traveling alone at such a young age.

Most of them are guys who come from poor backgrounds or who are simply planning to burn their boats.

Think of this.

The driver shook his head imperceptibly.

He understood that although these little brats generally had some determination in their hearts, the results they obtained were generally not very good.

soon.

After explaining some safety matters, the driver asked everyone to make final preparations as the carriage was about to set off.

A few minutes later.

Just as the sky was getting light and the sun was shining on the earth, the carriage started moving.

At this moment, listening to the bustling sounds around the city gate, listening to the sound of horses' hooves, looking at the gradually distant metal city gate, gazing at the towering city wall that was at least forty meters high and more than ten meters thick, some inexplicable complex emotions inexplicably emerged in Wuyuan's heart, that was the feeling that his life was entering the next stage.

Five years have passed.

He finally left Black Rock City, the city that had brought him countless unfortunate memories and made him struggle to survive for a long time, and headed in a completely new direction...
-
I do not know how long it has been.

In the scene behind the carriage, the appearance of Black Rock City had completely disappeared.

All that could be seen around were other carriages, passers-by, and some trees or animals.

And as the carriage got farther and farther away from the urban area and the density of plants continued to increase, the surrounding fog became more and more obvious and thicker at this time in the early morning.

This deeply illustrates that [White Mist Country], a country name with a clear meaning, is not meaningless after all.

In this country, let alone the wilderness, even in densely populated cities with few plants, there is a high probability of large-scale thick fog.

of course.

In the past, Ling Wuyuan's understanding of these things was always superficial.

This was also his first time coming into the wilderness.

After watching for a while, his attention gradually shifted from the thick fog around him to the speed of the carriage.

Through careful observation.

Ling Wuyuan could judge that the carriage was moving at a speed of about 20 kilometers per hour.

Although it is not fast, it is stable and easy.

During the whole process, the four horses pulling the cart all seemed to be at ease.

He didn't even breathe heavily.

They obviously still have a lot of spare energy.

Acceleration can be performed at any time.

You know, this large carriage was carrying a large amount of supplies and eight people!

Even if we remove the weight of the carriage itself, it still weighs at least several tons!
While secretly sighing that all the horses in this world are very strong.

Ling Wuyuan began to calculate the approximate distance between [Black Stone City] and [Wucha Town] based on the distance the driver had mentioned before.

First, he needed to deduct the time the convoy would need to rest and stop during the journey.

Next, he needed to think about the possible fluctuations in the speed of the carriage...

Finally, after a simple estimate, he felt that the actual distance between [Black Stone City] and [Wu Cha Town] was at least about three hundred kilometers. Even in modern civilization, this is not short, let alone feudal civilization.

But [Wucha Town] is ultimately just one of the twelve [towns] under the management of [Black Stone City].

[Village], [Town], [City], [State], [Country], this is the basic way of dividing the territory in this world.

Although it is a feudal civilization, the countries in this world and the populations and territories under their jurisdiction are indeed quite large.

Thinking that a city of the actual size of Black Stone City has twenty-one states on top, and that twenty-one states can form a complete White Mist Country, Wu Yuan feels that the White Mist Country he lives in in this life is likely to be ranked among the top three in the world in terms of land area in the previous life...

that's it.

As he watched, time continued to pass.

finally.

Nothing unexpected happened.

After a day and a night, the convoy successfully sighted the town called Wucha Town.

During this process, after observing at his leisure, Ling Wuyuan also had a rough idea of the actual distance of the entire journey.

About 380 to 420 kilometers.
