"Where am I?" Xiao Lotian opened his eyes in a daze, but everywhere he looked, there were woods shaking by the cold wind and tall and majestic mountains.
"Why did it suddenly get so cold, I remember when I entered the mountain, and what about the campfire, the tent, the hiking bag I used as a pillow?"
Xiao Lotian didn't have any strength at all, he seemed to have gone on a protracted hike, and all the bodies on his body had been exhausted.
"Water...... I need some water......" Xiao Lotian gathered some strength and struggled to start crawling the stream, and when he could touch the cold water, his head kept dizzying.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind him, and the sound of a person speaking hurriedly. Xiao Lotian wanted to look back, but before he could turn his head, he crawled on the stone beach in front of him and fainted.
"It's really a big mistake to come to Taihang Mountain camping this time......" This was the last sentence in Xiao Letian's mind before his consciousness disappeared.
Not far from Xiao Letian's coma, there was a sudden muffled sound of bouncing three times, and there was a violent shaking in the bushes on the hillside, followed by the excited cheers of the crowd, "Qing Sanye is mighty, the divine shooting is unparalleled, it is simply Sai Li Guang, Xiaohuarong...... " Several big-headed soldiers wearing eight banners rushed to the grass on the hillside excitedly, and after a while, a huge fat rabbit came out of it.
Qing Sanye, that is the number one master in the Xiling Protector Army of Zhili Yi County, known as the unequaled cavalry shooting, one of the eight Manchurian surnames of Zhenggen, Fucha clan, full name Fuqing. On weekdays, the little soldiers were so slippery and patting horses, his eyes were already smiling, and he couldn't figure out a handful of copper coins to be rewarded.
But today, Qing Sanye didn't have a trace of excitement when he heard the sound of horses' ass, and now his eyes were staring at a tall man riding a horse and watching the scenery not far away like a fighting. Take a closer look, Ya is actually a foreign devil?
"General Qing...... Your archery skills are really good, and in my opinion you are better than the most brilliant archery masters in Japan...... Don't you want to take a photo? I'll give you one and record your posture......" After the foreign devil finished speaking, his attendant Samon began to point the camera at Qing Sanye.
This is terrible, Qing Sanye's subordinates even threw away the dead rabbit, jumped over and loyally blocked the horse, "Third master, you get off the horse, this is a foreign devil's soul-capturing object, take a picture once and lose a trace of soul...... Foreign devil, I have long seen that you are not a good thing, and now that you have finally shown your feet, there is a kind of ...... you are coming at us."
Hey, it seems that this group of pro-soldiers is still a child, and there is really no such soldier in the Qing Dynasty with average loyalty. Qing Sanye didn't have the chic energy just now, so he dragged his son off the horse and hid behind the pile of people and watched the ghost-like Simon not even speak.
"Live...... Stop it...... This is the realm of the Qing Dynasty, how can we allow you to be presumptuous, you put down the demon weapon for me......"
Just when the foreign devil and the Qing military attache were in a stalemate, a figure suddenly ran from not far from the east, shouting "My lord" as he ran...... Come and see, my lord, we have caught a long-haired remnant...... "Running here was a young man wearing a melon-skin hat and a green cloth coat, and his head was covered in sweat.
As soon as Qing Sanye and the foreign devil heard that there was a long-haired remnant, they immediately stopped fighting and hurriedly ran to the west, bypassing a large white stone more than four meters high, and found that the people in the caravan had already surrounded a circle, and the guys drew knives and sticks to surround an unconscious young man on the ground.
"Shopkeeper Fan, what's going on? Where did you find it......" Qing Sanye asked about a thin old man, a black satin robe and a goatee, and two small eyes that were shining, he was the big boss of this caravan, a big shopkeeper of the Fan family of Jin merchants.
"Third master, don't worry, I didn't find this person when the caravan was resting just now, and then I found it on the side of the stream when the guy went to fetch water, thinking it was a mountain man in distress, but I turned it back and looked at it, but I was startled by the old man......
What Shopkeeper Fan said was not wrong, when Qing Sanye and the foreign devil looked down together, they found that this white and handsome young man was really weird. First of all, he didn't have braids, his hair was the kind of hair that had just grown out of a month after shaving, and the clothes he wore were very strange, similar to the style of foreigners, with two sections up and down, and the black touch seemed to be made of some kind of leather.
You say that he is a monk, there is no incense scar on his head, you say that he is a remnant of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the clothes he wears are in the style of foreign devils. As a result, he and the shopkeeper Fan subconsciously secretly aimed their eyes at the foreign devil.
Before the foreign devil could speak, the unconscious young man on the ground suddenly moved...... Give me water...... "When the foreign devil saw that the person was sober, he quickly asked Simon to take out the kettle, and poured half a pot of water in a row, and the white young man finally opened his eyes.
"Oh, I was saved by international friends? I didn't expect you to go to Beijing to climb the Great Wall, but to come to this poor and remote place to be a travel friend...... thankyou...... "......Just when this kid wanted to have a good conversation with his African friends in English, the focus of his eyes could be regarded as wide-angle, and a group of people in Qing Dynasty costumes surrounded him, and he sat up in fright.
“ohmygod...... Are you guys acting?Shooting locations?" Before he could finish speaking, one of Qing Sanye's subordinates splashed a scoop of cold water on his head, "Wake up, wake up...... Listening to the accent, the men of Sijiu City still speak the words of foreign devils? Could it be that they are two devils......
A scoop of cold water made this kid sober up at that time, and he looked carefully at the surrounding qiē, caravans, Qing Dynasty military attachés, foreigners, tall horses, mules, and small donkeys...... Of course, there are also the real big braids, which finally made him recognize a reality, and he crossed over. As a result, this unproductive one, his eyes were black and he fainted again.
The young man who crossed is called Xiao Letian, a native of the imperial capital of the Great Celestial Dynasty, who graduated from Yenching University and is now working as a middle-level executive in a multinational advertising company. This guy usually doesn't have any hobbies, he just likes to go to military forums and have big debates with a group of angry young people. He only remembered traveling to the depths of the Taihang Mountains with a group of travelers before the crossing, and arguing with another person next to the campfire because of something about military history.
Xiao Letian has always emphasized that there is actually another choice for the direction of modern China, and it is not necessarily necessary to follow the old path of dynastic change. During the Qianlong period, the Qing Dynasty initially estimated that China had a total population of about 300 million, and during the Taiping Rebellion, more than 100 million people died in China, and one-third of the population disappeared. That's all a living human life, and it's the foundation of the country.
It is a pity that Xiao Letian's compassion was exchanged for ridicule from the other party, and the traveler retorted to Xiao Letian in a strong revolutionary tone, saying that a class is destined not to step down by itself, and how can an immortal break the iron lid made by thousands of years of traditional concepts? Not to mention that ten rooms and nine are empty, even if it is one in a hundred miles, the Great Revolution should be.
Neither of them could convince anyone, and as a result, they quarreled for most of the night, and finally in the scolding of other travelers, the two of them closed up and went to sleep. And Xiao Lotian was still chanting in his heart when he was about to fall asleep.
"As long as I am given a chance, Lao Tzu will definitely come out of a completely different way, I want the Chinese nation to get out of the quagmire of decay with the least amount of blood, I am sure, I firmly believe that ......"
I never thought that the heavens didn't know that the great god heard his voice, and actually gave him this opportunity, after waking up from this big dream, Xiao Letian actually really crossed over.
"Gentlemen, old and young masters, what year is it today? And this foreign friend, do you know what year it is according to the Western calendar? Tell me quickly......" When Xiao Lotian was once again awakened by the cold water, he asked when he saw a person, and this is the sentence over and over again.
In the end, it was the foreigner who spoke, and said in his strange Chinese, which did not have four voices, "Young man, this year is 1864, that is, the third year of Tongzhi...... Are you amnesia? You've been hit in the head?"
Xiao Letian's back was soaked with sweat at that time, no wonder these people called me long hair just now, and called me a second devil, it turned out that it was 1864. This year, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom collapsed, the so-called Tongzhi Zhongxing was about to begin, the Second Opium War ended four years ago, and foreign forces officially infiltrated the interior...... There is also the Franco-Prussian War that is about to start, Germany will be unified in a few years, and even small Japan is now in a mess, and in four years Japan will change the Yuan Meiji era, and the Meiji Restoration will begin.
Heaven and earth, you are really playing with me, you say that I am a little angry and complaining, you just let me fart, why are you still serious? and throw me directly into the middle of the first industrial revolution and the second industrial revolution. Your starting point is really good, and this year is really the last chance for the Chinese nation to rise.
Xiao Letian doesn't have the heart to think nonsense, his first task now is to survive, no matter what, I can't let these people label me as the remnants of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, I'd rather be a second devil than save my life first. Xiao Letian saw very clearly that the military attache named Qing Sanye had a bad face, and he was talking to his minions secretly.
There is also the old shopkeeper of the caravan, who doesn't dare to approach him with his buddies, and the merchant is still afraid of sticky bags, especially the young man who saved himself, who has already been complained about by others. Now only this big-nosed foreigner is not afraid of himself and is interested in answering his own questions.
Xiao Letian's brain is now running at a speed comparable to that of an eight-core CPU arranges and combines all the information, screening out all kinds of possibilities, he never thought that he could be so focused on thinking about problems, and all the bullshit procrastination, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and lack of concentration are all gone at this moment.
Until finally, Xiao Lotian suddenly grabbed the cuff of the missionary in front of him and said in his standard American English, "God is above, please save your people, now only you can save my life, I am willing to exchange the most valuable information for your help, are you British?French?or...... Forget it, no matter what country you are from, I will be helpful to you, now please save me first and give me a legal identity......"
The foreigner with blue eyes and big nose was shocked at that time, at first this Chinese came out of a few English words still couldn't hear anything, now this whole English exit he was stupid at that time, this Chinese can actually speak a mouthful of the eastern American accent, the most standard New York accent.
"My God, what kind of person are you giving me? This is the most bizarre incident I have ever encountered in the Qing Kingdom......
