In the eyes of outsiders, he is a man with no ambitions, he has a good martial arts, but he abandons it, does not participate in any gangs, does not bully people, and every day is to help his wife look after the store, wear a long shirt, make a pot of tea, and wait to see the sunset in San Francisco.

There are many Chaoshan people in Chinatown, and there are many gangs, competing for territory with each other, fighting and killing, that is, bullying their own people ruthlessly, and becoming a gray grandson half a step away from Chinatown, but they never dared to bully Liu Yanzhi, let alone go to Yanzhi laundry to collect protection money, first, Liu Yanzhi is a new immigrant who came with Sun Wen's post, and Sun Wen is Hongmen's double-flower red stick, this face is always given, and secondly, Liu Yanzhi himself is not a mortal, Gengzi's change to protect this Lafayette West Hunt, who has killed thousands of chaotic people in front of the imperial guard with a knife, who dares to provoke.

Liu Yanzhi has his own considerations, if he wants to take root, he will simply return to China to break out of the world, and he can mix up a prince, but he knows that he does not belong to this era, everything is temporary, maybe tomorrow the party will send someone to find him, he just needs to wait.

The days of Chinatown are very quiet and leisurely, no computer, no network, no mobile phone, Lin Su is skillful, he made a few sets of robes and horse coats for Liu Yanzhi, all the clothes for spring, summer, autumn and winter, there is an extra man in the family, although he does not work, but at least he can share the pressure of Lin Su, the business of the laundry is gradually booming, and he hired two helpers, Liu Yanzhi is more leisurely, in addition to drinking tea and reading newspapers, he is to go to the martial arts hall in Chinatown to walk around twice, point out the younger generations, and teach some of the world's martial arts are only fast and unbreakable.

The days passed, the little white dragon is two years old, the party has not sent anyone to patriotic, Hannibal has not appeared, Liu Yanzhi has been accustomed to the life of San Francisco, his English level has been greatly improved, he used to just pass the oral level, now he can speak authentic English, can read English newspapers, know how to use legal weapons to protect himself, once helped people to fight a lawsuit, actually won the foreigner, quite famous in the local area, can be described as highly respected, so that he became famous overseas, and Mr. Sun Wen also established contact, the two exchanged letters, Liu Yanzhi helped him raise a sum of money in San Francisco and supported the anti-Qing cause with practical actions.

It's not a way to always be idle, Liu Yanzhi learned the carpenter's craft, personally made a small bed for his son to sleep, he studied under the old craftsmen from China, without foreign nails and wood glue, only with axes and planers and chisels, you can make a complete set of Qing-style furniture, all connected by mortise and tenon joints, the old craftsmen teach each other, over time, Liu Yanzhi can build a full wooden structure palace without nails.

During the Dragon Boat Festival in 1904, Liu Yanzhi had lived in this era for two years, watching his son grow up day by day, he even had an illusion that which of himself was real, whether it was Liu Yanzhi, the laundry owner in San Francisco's Chinatown, or Liu Yanzhi, a traveler a hundred years later.

Lin Su wrapped a lot of zongzi, let Liu Yanzhi help send them to the neighbors, people overseas, always have some thoughts of their hometown, festivals are the best commemoration, back home, there are drinks and dishes on the table, Lin Su is a very qualified housewife, not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, frying and frying is also an expert, the husband and wife sit opposite each other, the little white dragon sits on the high child seat, he is three years old, the small mouth is very sweet, Liu Yanzhi is always happy when calling his father.

"Boss, let's open another branch." Lin Su said, "There are too many laundries in Chinatown, and I want to open outside, to a neighborhood where foreigners live, or to open a woodware store." ”

"Let's talk about it." Liu Yan said straightly, "The family is not in a hurry to use the money, so keep it for the little white dragon to order milk." ”

Under Liu Yanzhi's leadership, Xiao Bailong is different from other children in Chinatown, with a Western-oriented diet, drinking milk and eating beef, and is also bigger than children of the same age, even stronger and more powerful than white children.

Lin Su has long been accustomed to her husband's attitude of not wanting to make progress, eating and waiting for death, she smiled softly, no longer insisting, although her husband is lazy, but he is not ambiguous at all when he should shoot, once he needs to use money urgently, he took a sum of dollars out of the emergency without saying a word, in Lin Su's view, Liu Yanzhi is not only a husband, but also the pillar of the family, or an omnipotent hero, a master of seclusion.

"In two years, these houses will all collapse." Liu Yan said straightly, "San Francisco is in the earthquake zone, I watched the sky at night, and calculated that there will be a major earthquake in April next year to increase the fire, killing at least a few thousand people. ”

Lin Su was stunned: "How can that be?" ”

Liu Yanzhi said indifferently: "It's okay, with me, there is no need to open the branch, keep the money to do real estate when the time comes, and earn a big ...... If we hadn't left San Francisco by then. ”

Lin Su was puzzled: "Leave?" Where to? Are you going back to Tangshan? ”

Tangshan does not refer to Tangshan in Hebei, but to the meaning of the Tang Dynasty, and overseas Chinese use it to refer to their hometown.

Liu Yan said straightly: "The ...... that always returns to the roots"

Lin Su said: "Xianggong, I haven't heard you mention things at home. ”

Liu Yan said straightly: "My father died, my mother is still there, your ugly daughter-in-law will see her mother-in-law sooner or later?" ”

Lin Suqi said: "My mother-in-law is still alive, so let's go back quickly, my parents are not far away, and it is not filial piety to leave the old man in my hometown." ”

Liu Yanzhi felt that his head was big, and it was difficult to explain to Lin Su, so he had to say perfunctorily: "The old man is not in Tangshan, he is in another place, and he can't find anyone to go now, so he can only go when the right time comes." ”

Lin Su blinked, with her knowledge, it was difficult to understand Xianggong Yunshan Mist Cover's explanation, but she had a good idea, that is, she unconditionally believed everything Liu Yanzhi said, and no matter how ridiculous it was, she would not make fun of it in person.

Liu Yanzhi teased the child again: "Little Bailong, is it okay to go back to your hometown with your father, go back to Jiangdong." ”

The little white dragon replied in a milky voice: "Okay." ”

The Dragon Boat Festival used to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and at the end of the year, San Francisco was shrouded in the joyful atmosphere of Christmas, Liu Yanzhi said that he wanted to go out to buy Christmas gifts for his son, Lin Su knew that Xianggong liked to make up for the excitement of foreigners, every year on February 14 of the Western calendar, he had to buy himself what roses, Christmas was a big festival for foreigners, catching up with the old New Year of the Chinese, the lights were colorful, the shops were discounted, and there was no harm in being happy.

"I'm out." Liu Yanzhi stood at the door, pinched his son's fat face, and wanted to hug Lin Su again for an American-style kiss goodbye.

"The neighbors are watching." Lin Su squirmed and dodged, the couple had a very good relationship, raised their eyebrows, mixed oil in honey, and were very happy.

"Go early and come back early, I have something to tell you when I come back." Lin Sudao, she fell ill when she gave birth to Xiaobailong, and she couldn't add a son and a half daughter to Liu Yanzhi later, so she had the heart to give Xianggong a concubine room, and everyone was optimistic, she was a sixteen-year-old Chaozhou girl, who just came from Guangdong by boat, although she was not very handsome, but her ass was good to raise.

"Okay, let's talk about it when we come back." Liu Yan said with a straight smile, what his wife thought he was doing in secret, in fact, he already knew about it, and he had to laugh at Lin Su at night.

Liu Yan went straight out, he was wearing a cyan cotton robe, cloth shoes with mille-feuille soles, the winter in San Francisco, the street carriages shuttled, the national flag and color bars, bells hung at the door of the store, and in the jingling music of the bells, he saw the small iron train in the window of Macy's department store, and planned to buy a game for his son, suddenly the train was gradually deformed, and the window was slowly distorted......

The whole world became unreal, Liu Yan looked down at himself, his body became blurred, and after a second, he felt his head stunned, as if the world had returned to normal, he was squatting in front of the window, and the bells were still ringing in his ears, but the goods in the window were no longer a tin train, but a fur coat, and the LCD screen above his head was playing the model catwalk of Paris Fashion Week.

Liu Yanzhi's mind was blank, he looked around, the traffic was busy, the street scene of San Francisco was still the same, but the four-wheeled carriage had become a car, the well-dressed pedestrians in top hats had become black hip-hop youths wearing hoodies and holding iPhones, and the hand-drawn billboards had become LCD screens, this was 2018, and he had returned to the baseline time and space.

No one cares about this Chinese in strange clothes, the United States pays attention to cultural diversity, no one cares about you what you wear on the street, Liu Yanzhi ran all the way back to Chinatown, the Yanzhi laundry that was familiar half an hour ago has become an automated chain laundry, and there is no longer a wife who is looking forward to it, and there is no cute son anymore.

Liu Yanzhi was almost crazy, he punched the glass of the car on the side of the road, sat in and removed the dashboard, pulled out the wire to light it, slammed on the accelerator, went all the way to the east, abandoned the car when he got out of the city, and went straight to the secret Monsan base in Nevada.

The wind was whistling in his ears, and unconsciously, Liu Yanzhi's flight speed increased dramatically, and in a regional airliner high in the sky, five-year-old Jimmy sat by the porthole and saw a person flying below, pulling his mother and saying, "Mommy, look, Superman." ”

Mommy touched his head: "You're such a fantasizing child." ”

Liu Yanzhi galloped all the way, and finally came to the Monsan base, he ignored the dense god defense system, and landed directly in the center of the base, and the defensive weapon did not fire, Hannibal heard the news, and looked at Liu Yanzhi with a tangled face.

"Why!" Liu Yanzhi yelled.

"I'm sorry, I tried my best." Hannibal said, "Time has its own laws, and you stay too long and are ostracized back." ”

Liu Yan turned straight to leave, but Hannibal stopped him: "Where are you going?" If you want to travel from Cuiwei Mountain again to bring back your wife and children left in another world, I advise you not to do it, because there is no point in doing so. ”

"What do you mean?" Liu Yan stopped, his heart beating wildly.

"They are dead, I'm sorry, but it's a fact, the earthquake was about a year and a half ahead of schedule for unknown reasons, on the afternoon of December 24, 1904, which was higher than the original historical magnitude, San Francisco was completely destroyed, and tens of thousands of people were killed."
