Chapter 2 Illiteracy
"Damn! It hurts to death! Du Yuhan only felt that half of his face had completely lost consciousness, the sharp pain spread along the bridge of his nose, his head was hit and he was dizzy, and he fell to the ground and couldn't stand up at all.
It's over, the nose is going to be knocked crooked! I didn't have a nosebleed, did I?
When the severe pain gradually subsided, he raised his head angrily and wanted to find the bastard who pushed him, but the next moment, Du Yuhan was completely stunned.
He was at the mouth of the alley on the side of the road, and on both sides of the street were neatly arranged small bungalows of unique shapes, about one or two stories high, neatly stacked with large limestone bricks connected with whitewashed stone bricks, the edges of which were supported by logs as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and the roof was paved with layers of cyan and red tiles.
The costumes of the people who come and go are very strange, completely different from the costumes of modern people, but more like the clothes of ancient Europe.
Even more surprising was the fact that he saw many people with shields, axes, staffs, and other weapons that he could not name.
it! This is a god's situation!?
One moment he was still crowding the subway in the crowd, why did he come to this place the next moment!?
Du Yuhan rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and the qiē in front of him made him wonder if he had broken his brain and hallucinated.
According to his understanding, thousands of years have passed since the era of cold weapons, is there still such a place on the earth?
Just when Du Yuhan was at a loss, there was a sudden shouting and scolding behind him. He turned his head to look and saw an uncle pushing a wooden cart full of goods, looking at him with an unkind gaze.
Hurriedly moved to the side of the road, Du Yuhan's mind was in a mess, and he didn't pay attention to the uncle's slightly puzzled gaze before leaving.
Watching the uncle push the cart and scold away, Du Yuhan's heart fell to the bottom. Even if you don't know the place well, the key is that you can't understand the language, and how many misunderstandings are caused by the language barrier.
Noticing the gaze of the pedestrian, Du Yuhan hurriedly looked down at himself. He looked a little out of place today in a sweatshirt and jeans, plus these trendy sneakers, resting in a crowd of pedestrians in robes and coats.
In order not to attract attention, he hid next to a small bush deep in the alley.
Looks like we'll have to find a way to get back. Du Yuhan secretly thought and began to check the items on his body.
The wallet with which I went out with my phone key, plus the modeling bracelet I wore on my hand, were still in my pocket, but they were all turned off. Since it is a civilized society, the currency should be usable, and the influence of ZG is so great now, the soft sister coin should be able to exchange huàn...... Right?
The question of not having money is very serious, but the first task now is to find out what the hell this is.
He made several layers of psychological construction for himself, and he tried his best to pretend to be out and hang out, and easily walked and watched on the street. And those painless and curious eyes were directly ignored by his cheekiness.
Fortunately, his clothes were just of a weird style, and others only looked at them a few times and stopped paying attention.
Du Yuhan's heart sank more and more, watching the vendor try to sell in a language he didn't understand, and it sounded different from all the languages he had been exposed to. In front of some of the houses, there is a wooden sign with some words written on it that have never been seen before.
It seems that he has become completely illiterate, and he can't find someone to ask for directions.
Du Yuhan felt extremely big.
Suddenly, Du Yuhan heard someone shouting his name, he turned around to look, and a handsome young man ran towards him shouting, followed by several people dressed as guards.
He wanted to pretend that he couldn't hear and just turn around and leave, but he didn't dare to act rashly when he looked at the weapon on the other party's body.
The boy ran up to him, out of breath and babbling something, his hands still clutching his sleeves for fear that he would run away.
Du Yuhan couldn't help frowning when he saw him holding on to himself, stretched out his hand to remove the other party's hand, and shook his head at him, indicating that they had recognized the wrong person.
But when the young man saw Du Yuhan shaking his head, his feelings became even more excited, and he said a lot of things. Seeing that Du Yuhan was still indifferent, he said these things anxiously, compared with the guards behind him, pointed at himself again, and finally made a gesture similar to a salute.
His gaze swept over everyone's faces. At present, the young man seems to be a little higher in rank than the few people behind him, and he has been talking to himself about these things, and the guards dare not interject.
Du Yuhan was sure that this group of people should know "themselves", and they had something urgent to find him. It just so happened that he looked a lot like that person, and even had the same name, so they mistook themselves for each other.
If he turns around and leaves, he will definitely be entangled, and in case the other party is impatient, beckon the guards behind him to come over...... The bloody scene of brain replenishment made Du Yuhan shudder.
Although he didn't know where these people were going to take him and what it had to do with him, if he resisted fiercely, it would definitely cause unnecessary trouble. If his identity as a foreigner is revealed, I don't know what will happen, I heard that the more backward tribes are very xenophobic, so it is better to go with them. As long as he doesn't speak or react, they shouldn't know he's an impostor...... Right?
When he looked up and found that it was getting late, looking at the young man's anxious face, but he didn't dare to pull the respectful expression hard, he had a plan in his heart.
Du Yuhan smiled slightly and nodded.
Unexpectedly, when those people saw him smiling, their expressions were stunned at first, and then they took a few steps back in horror, and began to babble a lot of words, and kept saluting him. The young man, in particular, was so frightened that his face was bloodless, and he was about to kneel.
Du Yuhan: ......
Du Yuhan's smile froze, he looked at those people with black lines on his head, and quickly adjusted his face expressionlessly.
The young man was relieved to see that he was "normal" again, secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and quickly said something to the guard beside him, and after the guard left, he said something to him respectfully.
Du Yuhan watched the young man talking to himself, and could only hear him mention his name several times, sometimes showing a worried expression, sometimes pointing into the distance, in short...... He couldn't read it......
In order not to show the flaws, he decided to look at his nose and nose and mouth, close his mouth, and observe the surrounding scenery with his hands.
The young man saw that Du Yuhan didn't pay attention to himself, and he obediently stopped talking. He secretly looked at Du Yuhan, only to find that the other party's clothes were a little strange, and he couldn't help but show a puzzled expression.
Feeling the inquiring gaze on his body, Du Yuhan glanced at the young man lightly, and the other party immediately lowered his head timidly.
It seems that this young man is very afraid of the original body, could it be that the original body has a very brutal personality? Du Yuhan's mind immediately appeared with a ruthless, cruel, and cold-blooded image.
Just as Du Yuhan was thinking wildly, the departing guards came back with a rather luxurious carriage. The young man bowed down and made a gesture of invitation to Du Yuhan, and Du Yuhan took the opportunity to sit in the carriage.
As a modern man, riding in a carriage is a novelty for him. Just sat down, Du Yuhan began to look around.
There were two small windows on either side of the carriage, the hanging curtains blocked the curious view from outside, and in the small space there was a soft couch with a small table on which incense was burned. Behind the couch there was a row of small wooden cabinets, in which some daily necessities such as silk paper handkerchiefs were placed, and a few of them were empty. It's pretty much the same as the horse-drawn carriage you see on TV.
It seems that the original body is a rich young master...... Then, Du Yuhan's mind immediately appeared with the image of a ruthless, cruel and cold-blooded gentleman - a young master wearing a gorgeous costume and holding a leather whip that was still dripping blood smiled lewdly: "Girl, give Ye Le one!" ”
Du Yuhan: ......
How can he pretend to be this?! Thinking of this, Du Yuhan couldn't help but have a headache.
Now he doesn't know if the decision to follow is right or wrong.
Forget it, take it one step at a time.
*******************
After about a quarter of an hour's walk, the carriage stopped in front of a luxurious villa. With the support of the young man, Du Yuhan got out of the carriage, and a middle-aged man dressed as a housekeeper saluted him and led him into the front hall of the villa.
The villa is very large and gorgeously decorated, Du Yuhan just entered the front hall, and the servants standing on both sides bowed down to salute him. In the center of the hall hung the portraits of the heads of the previous generations, I don't know if it was an illusion, he always felt that the man in the portrait looked a little like him.
The middle-aged housekeeper turned around and said a few words to him, seeing that Du Yuhan just looked at him expressionlessly without saying a word, he didn't feel strange, as if he was used to the silence of the other party, he said a few words to the young man, saluted him and left.
When the boy had received the order, he led him to another room.
Under the guidance of the young man, he turned several corners and came to the room on the west side of the villa. Waving his hand to signal all the servants in the room to retreat, Du Yuhan's tense nerves relaxed.
The middle-aged housekeeper just now put a lot of pressure on him, and there was something in the man's calm eyes that he couldn't understand. Although Du Yuhan's expression was very calm, he didn't know that his palm had been held out of a layer of cold sweat, for fear that the other party would find out something.
Sitting on the sofa and resting for a while, Du Yuhan began to look around.
The bedroom is very plainly decorated, and there is not too much flashy decoration in the room, which is far from the luxurious style that has just been in the front hall.
There is also a small study on the other side of the room, and there is a portrait of a character hanging in the middle of the study, the protagonist of the portrait looks exactly the same as Du Yuhan, but his facial features are very cold and hard, and there is a compelling heroic spirit hidden between his eyebrows.
Another wall is connected to a bookcase, on which are neatly arranged with various books. Du Yuhan took out a few books and flipped through them casually, and found that basically each one had some small handwritten notes, although he couldn't understand a word.
According to the furnishings of the room and the attitude of the servants towards him, Du Yuhan has determined that the identity of the original body is the young master of this family, but he is definitely not the most favored one. I don't know why the young master disappeared, so the servants mistakenly took themselves for their original bodies and brought them back.
In case the genuine young master comes back, won't he be a fake?
Thinking of this, Du Yuhan's face turned pale, but he didn't think of a way to get out for a while.
Although the identity of the young master of the big family made him very distressed, but his living needs were greatly guaranteed, at least the facilities were complete, especially the large bathtub made of dark lines carved with unknown ink around him, and it was comfortable to soak in it.
With a bath towel around him coming out of the supporting bathroom of the room, Du Yuhan was quite satisfied with the status quo. In fact, the servant had a change of clothes for him in the bathroom, but those things were very cumbersome to wear, Du Yuhan looked at the dark eyes, and simply wrapped himself in a bath towel and walked out to see if there was a nightgown or something in the bedroom.
So, when the young servant came in to deliver him a meal, he saw the young master, who had always been meticulously dressed, with such a naked pestle by the window, and he was suddenly messy in the wind.
Watching the young man tremble and bring him dinner for some reason, Du Yuhan, who had long been hungry, waved away the young man and began to gobble it up. The chefs of rich families are different, the meat and vegetarian dishes for dinner are fragrant, and even Du Yuhan, who has never been cold to Western food, can't help but eat it.
Waiting for the young man to come in and take away the tableware, and send away the servants who wanted to leave behind, Du Yuhan looked at the dark night outside the window, and lay on the bed to empty his thoughts.
It was his first night in a foreign land.
After a few hours of observation, he had determined that this was not the country he was familiar with, let alone the era in which he had grown up. People here live a very low-carbon life, there are no cars, no computers, no electricity, they have to light a fire for food, they have to fetch water for bathing, they can only light oil lamps when it gets dark, and they don't even have a clock to keep track of the time......
Taking out the belongings that he had been hiding in his pocket, he checked everything when no one was around, most of the electronic products could not be opened, and the only modeling bracelet that could be opened, due to the lack of power, the screen flickered a few times, and was also declared dead. But he remembered that the battery was full before...... Du Yuhan pressed hard without giving up, but the phone still couldn't be opened. He sighed when he opened his wallet and looked at the pitiful amount of cash and a few credit cards with low limits, which were estimated to be useless.
It was completely different from his previous life.
He doesn't know if his family will be in a mess because of his disappearance, he doesn't know if his eldest brother who loves him the most will feel sad, and he doesn't know if the company can find an employee to replace him...... After thinking about it for a long time, I felt that it was like this now, and it was useless to worry too much.
He didn't know why he was here, and he didn't know where he was going back. When I came to this strange place, I became a young master by mistake, but I couldn't even say anything here, and all of them had to relearn and adapt again.
It's definitely false to say that you're not afraid, but what else can you do besides face it?
Although he doesn't know what the future holds, Du Yuhan has only one goal now, and that is to live. Only by living can there be hope and find a way back.
After thinking about it all night, it wasn't until the sky turned white that Du Yuhan fell asleep in a daze.
