Chapter 2 The Zhou Dynasty and the Immortals
After a period of recuperation, Gu Haotian's body slowly recovered.
In fact, as the rich second generation of the Gu family, coupled with the previous naughty and active, he invisibly strengthened his exercise, so Gu Haotian's physical foundation is still good. Besides, the ancient family is rich, nourishing and worry-free, and has medical insurance, and there is no serious illness itself, of course, if you change your soul, it doesn't count. So not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Gu Haotian's body healed greatly.
It's just that this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, because Gu Haotian is in bed to recuperate, the Gu family will also pass. Only the little sister Yingniang was unhappy, she climbed on Haotian's pillow and pestered the coquettish, "Brother, brother, you are getting better soon, no one takes Yingniang to play." "It's strange to say, although Gu Haotian in his previous life was a demon king of the mixed world, he was very close to this half-sister, and in the eyes of Gu Haotian after the crossing, the little Lori in front of him was the same age as the daughter in his previous life, and he couldn't help but send her a father's love in his previous life, and the more he loved him.
Xiao Yingniang is made of pink makeup, lively and clever, and she is a little beauty. In fact, Gu Haotian also secretly looked in the mirror, and he was secretly glad that this kid was not a crooked melon and cracked date, although he was a half-old boy, he was also angular, handsome and handsome, and had the potential to be an idol when he grew up. Sometimes he also sighs that after several generations of improvement, the genes of this ancient family are still quite good, at least in terms of appearance inheritance.
After a while, Gu Haotian could walk on the ground. But slowly the people in the house felt something different, that is, it was too quiet, and the original scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping from time to time was gone, and finally people found that the root of this change was in the petty officials.
The first to be discovered was Bian Xiang, as Gu Haotian's most iron-clad servant and playmate, although he was rugged, his perception of petty officials was unusually keen. He found that the petty officials no longer climbed trees, stopped catching grasshoppers, and stopped mischievous...... in short, all the previous hobbies were gone, but they often sat quietly alone in a daze. He once told his father Bian Zhong about this concern, but who knew that in exchange for a big ear bracket and a lesson: "If the little official has any accidents, see if I don't pick your skin." But over time, the people in the house, including Bian Zhong, discovered this change. People privately discussed, "The brains of petty officials won't be frightened by thunder." ”
Of course, Gu Zhen and Li also felt it.
"This kid really can't be frightened by thunder, can he?" Lee muttered.
"No, I see that this child's eyes are clear, and it will be fine." Gu Zhen is still very insistent verbally.
"But ......", Li thought about it, but he couldn't rest assured.
"Chan'er, but don't worry, it'll be fine."
Although Gu Zhen was tough in his words, he was worried in his heart after all. After that, I took the opportunity to talk to my son a few times, and I didn't find anything abnormal. But some inexplicable questions came out of his son's mouth, what "emperor", "year name", "dynasty" and so on. After a period of observation, I found that my son did not have a dementia, and he was slowly relieved, and as for the change of personality, it was due to the change of error after being frightened.
However, as a new student at this moment, Gu Haotian is extremely distressed, specifically confused about the current situation. He asked Bian Xiang, who only knew the Zhou Dynasty, Jeju Mansion, Yuncheng County, and Gujiazhuang. He asked Bian Zhong again, but Bian Zhong only provided more pitiful information about the ninth year of Chengping and the son of heaven of the Chai family. As for Gu Zhen's father, he didn't dare to ask more, you said that a ten-year-old kid has these unbounded problems, and he still looks at the eldest son.
So Gu Haotian is very annoying, as a liberal arts student, and a liberal arts student who has read countless books through various dynasties, he is confident that he is clear about the change of dynasties in Chinese history, but he is very confused about the era in which he is currently living. Zhou Dynasty, what is that Zhou Dynasty. The East and West Zhou, which was a slave society, certainly not from a period of life; There was also a short-lived Zhou dynasty during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, but it seemed to be a minority regime; Wu Zetian also established the Zhou Dynasty, but now this emperor is a man, and Wu Zhou has only one dynasty, and there is no transmission, which is not right; Then the rest is the Hou Zhou of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and the emperor of this dynasty is also surnamed Chai, but it seems that this dynasty is very short-lived, and within a few years, the old Zhao family mutiny to Chen Qiao. If he accidentally traveled to another planet, it wouldn't be like it, after all, the "Yuncheng", "Jeju", "Tokyo" and other things he is now familiar with are all on the territory of Greater China.
With a stomach full of confusion, Gu Haotian began to do everything possible to find a way to solve his doubts, because the unknown living environment is dangerous to a stranger, at least it can't give people a sense of security. The first thing that comes to his mind is books, even if it is literary creation, from which clues can be found. Fortunately, although Gu Zhen is only a businessman and landlord, he also has a study room that decorates the façade.
One day, under the cover of Bian Xiang, he sneaked into the study that Gu Zhen didn't usually visit but didn't let himself set foot in. Sure enough, there are shelves full of books, but they are too messy, and it can be seen that Gu Zhen, the cheap father, only uses it as a façade. Then in a book called "The Story of the Heavenly Empire", he was shocked to find the name of a great god known to everyone in his previous life - the Sima Guang who smashed the cylinder.
He couldn't wait to take it off, and turned a page with his hand, only to see a full of traditional Chinese, but for him, a liberal arts student at a second-rate university, he could barely understand it. But he knew that he couldn't watch it here, judging from the memories he received, although Gu Zhen had asked the teacher to send a mask to the original Gu Haotian, but he was angry and ran away soon after, did he learn anything? He searched all the memories he had received, and found that there was no inventory of them. So he concluded that if he sat here and read a book in a serious way and was discovered by Gu Zhen, it would definitely be a trouble. So he sorted out the bookshelves and secretly took the book back to his bedroom, as for whether Gu Zhen would find out, he didn't care, in case he found it, he would want to say anything.
In the next few days, Gu Haotian locked himself in his bedroom and ordered Bian Xiang to stand guard at the door. And Bian Xiang, as a hardcore friend of the petty official, thought that the petty official had stolen something interesting and unspeakable from the big official's study, as if he felt that the unobtrusive petty official had come back before, and he was faintly excited, so he faithfully carried out the petty official's order.
After several days of hard research, Gu Haotian finally had a general understanding of this world. It turns out that in this world, China's history has turned a big corner in the Later Zhou Dynasty, and the old Zhao family did not have the Chen Qiao Mutiny and the yellow robe. But while dynasties have changed, the overall trend of Chinese history has not changed much.
First of all, the social environment of the Zhou Dynasty has not changed, the Liao State in the north is still strong, the Western Xia in the northwest is still rising, and there are many Tubo and Dali. Although there is no record of the Jurchens in the Northeast, it is estimated that they are indispensable.
Moreover, some of the stories of the old Zhou family are extremely similar to the old Zhao family in the Northern Song Dynasty. The Zhou Dynasty respected Guo Wei as Taizu, Chai Rong as Taizong, Chai Chongxun as Gaozong, and then through Yingzong, Wuzong, Renzong, Xianzong, Shenzong, there are eight emperors recorded in the book, among which there are two things, almost a copy of the Northern Song Dynasty, one is that Yingzong Chai Liying should die early, his son is young, and he was inexplicably enthroned by his younger brother Chai Liyi, which is simply the Zhou Dynasty version of the "axe light candle shadow", and the other is that Wuzong Chai Liyi took the throne after the "siege of Baishan Mountain", as well as the dispute between the old and new parties and so on.
At the same time, most of those important historical figures exist, excluding the series of the old Zhao family, such as: Guan Zhun, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, Han Qi, Di Qing, Wang Anshi, Su Dongpo, including the author of the book himself, etc., basically there is no omission. Gu Haotian couldn't help but sigh at the tenacious vitality of the gods from all walks of life, and he also responded to a sentence, gold will shine in that dynasty.
The content of the whole book ended in the era in which the author lived, and Gu Haotian compared the Northern Song Dynasty in his memory, and the era in which he currently lived was roughly equivalent to the Huizong period of the Northern Song Dynasty. So according to the historical inertia that has already occurred, what should happen next? He pushed back step by step with reference to the trajectory of the Northern Song Dynasty, and was immediately frightened by a terrifying picture, wouldn't he be so unlucky? He was stunned for a moment.
"Little officials, little officials," Bian Xiang, who was on guard, warned again and again, and when he came back to his senses, he found that his father Gu Zhen was already standing behind him, and his puzzled eyes did not know how many times he had scanned between his ten-year-old body and thick books. He turned his head and glared at Bian Xiang, who scratched his head aggrievedly, thinking, "Can you blame me for this, can he stop the big officials?" ”
"Daddy,"
"Tian'er, are you reading a book?"
"I ---"
Gu Haotian wanted to find an excuse to fool the past, but after thinking about it, paper can't contain fire after all, instead of living in a suspicious eye every day in the future, it is better to make up a story to round things out, maybe it will play an unexpected role in future life.
He thought about it and had an idea. turned around and closed the door, ordered Bian Xiang to stay outside the door, and pulled his father to sit on the edge of the bed together.
"Dad, I've been thinking it's strange these days, and sometimes I'm scared," he said, pretending to be confused.
"What's the matter, son, what about a father," Gu Zhen kept him beside him.
"After my son was frightened by thunder that day, there was a white-bearded old man who taught me a lot of things in my dreams."
"What!" Gu Zhen was surprised by his son's words, "Then what did he say?" ”
"I don't remember it, but after I woke up, I understood a lot of words." Gu Haotian knew that lies could not be told too much, and plausibility was the highest level.
Gu Zhen was stunned for a while, his son's adventure was obviously unexpected by him, but looking at his son's innocent appearance, it didn't look like a lie. He thought of the best way to verify it, so he took the book "The Story of the Heavenly Empire" on the table, and pointed to a lot of words, even some words that he recognized very hard, but except for a few difficult words, his son answered them all fluently. Of course, he was clear about his son's literacy level, and he remembered some things about his previous personality changes, these unexplained phenomena, and he naturally blamed God for living in a feudal society, the white-bearded fairy.
Immortal disciple! The way he looked at his son changed instantly.
"Son, have you told anyone about this?"
"Son, hasn't?"
"Then this matter is a little secret between the two of us, okay?" As a businessman and landlord, Gu Zhen certainly understands the truth that treasures do not appear, and making a fortune in silence is the king.
"My son listens to his father." This is naturally the most desired result, and the cheap dad really cooperated, Gu Haotian was overjoyed in his heart.
After that, Gu Zhen went to the ancestral hall alone to worship the ancestors and ancestors, and specially listed a shrine to worship the white-bearded immortals.
