Chapter 1 A Dream for a Hundred Years
"This time it's dead!" Looking at the group of Qing soldiers walking in front of him, Chai Dongliang's hands and feet were cold!
In front of a dilapidated building with arches and cornices, a crowd of people with long braids hanging down behind their robes, horse coats, melon skin hats, and even more terrible is a group of Qing soldiers wearing big tasseled hats and carrying old-fashioned foreign guns...
As an online writer, it should be said that there is sufficient psychological equipment for this kind of thing, when coding words, I have to spend hours every day to conceive, and I will substitute myself into the protagonist of the book, fantasizing about the various situations that will happen after crossing. Pointing out the country and scolding Fang Xuan, he sprinkled the spirit of the book business, the three wives and four concubines added fragrance to the red sleeves, and Fang showed his talents!
But Chai Dongliang never thought that he would travel to the Qing Dynasty by himself...
Touching the short hair more than half an inch long on his head, Chai Dongliang was cold from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. This evil Qing Dynasty, good old men insist on dragging a pig's tail!
A strange scene appeared, the oncoming Qing soldiers seemed to be blind to Chai Dongliang, who was wearing a white Nike tracksuit and carrying a laptop bag, the leader of the Qing soldiers with a black face like the bottom of the pot, when he peeked at him, there seemed to be a little fear in his eyes.
Are they afraid of me?
"I'm dressed like this now, could it be that they treat me as a foreigner?" As an online writer, Chai Dongliang still has some understanding of the history of the late Qing Dynasty, not to mention that the officer opposite is just a small character wearing an eight-grade rhinoceros complement, even if it is a first- or second-grade officer, he does not dare to provoke foreigners easily. After destroying the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the powerful Zeng Guofan was careless in handling the Tianjin teaching case, and he was still disgraced.
has the bottom of CET-4 in college, Chai Dongliang has some confidence!
Uncle, in his own country, he actually has to pretend to be a foreigner to avoid death, which is really embarrassing! Thinking of this, the fear diminished slightly, and the sense of frustration arose.
"Goo" The stomach began to scream, Chai Dongliang remembered that since last night, he had not returned water and rice!
The people on the street were also secretly looking at Chai Dongliang, but everyone had a heavy fear in their eyes. Chai Dongliang felt in his pocket, but there were still a few hundred-yuan bills in it, plus a few one-yuan coins.
However, there is no common renminbi here!
My stomach is screaming even more!
No matter what, even if it's an overlord meal, you have to bite the bullet and eat it! You can't be the first time-traveler in history to be starved to death, right?
"Good man, take whatever you want!"
No money for eating? Chai Dongliang was confused by the vendors who sold salted eggs and zongzi, but judging from the other party's name, they didn't regard themselves as foreigners, but as bandits who robbed houses!
Is there a man who robs a bandit in the street without a guy? Besides, have you ever seen such a handsome bandit?
Chai Dongliang asked with a pleasant face: "What kind of place is this, what is it today?" β
The peddler was stunned, and after a long time, he snapped his fingers and said timidly: "This is Wuhu... With that, he knelt on the ground with a plop, and wept and wiped his tears.
Chongzhen's year name? The Qing Dynasty actually used the era name of the former Ming Dynasty? Chai Dongliang was completely dizzy!
Could it be? Is it the early years of the Qing Dynasty? The common people still miss the Ming Dynasty?
But the Qing army I saw just now was carrying an imitation Mauser 88 rifle, where was there such a thing in the early Qing Dynasty, although he was just a pseudo-military fan, Chai Dongliang was sure that he would not be mistaken! Chinese are so familiar with Hanyang-made!
Chai Dongliang lowered his voice and asked, "Who is the current emperor?" Guangxu or Xuantong? β
The peddler's face was full of doubts, and it took a long time to muster up the courage to say: "Xuantong! β
"What is the date of the month of the year of Xuantong today?"
"September 18 of the third year of Xuantong!"
"Good man, take what you like and leave, the small one still has a family to support!" The peddler sobbed.
Chai Dongliang took four salted eggs and six meat dumplings, threw down a few one-yuan coins and walked away.
"Which country's foreign money is this?" The peddler is stupid with the money.
At the corner of the street not far away, the leader of the Qing army wearing the eight-grade rhinoceros tonic saw Chai Dongliang walking away, panting and wiping the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and after a long time, he took a breath and said with palpitations: "This guy is finally gone!" β
"My lord, what should I do? To catch or not to catch? A Qing soldier with a handful of black hair on his mouth asked.
Syllable!
With a loud slap, the leader of the Qing army stared at the bull's eye and scolded: "I don't know what to die!" Scratch? Did you see the foreign bag he was carrying? There must be bombs there! I want to die and stay away from Lao Tzu! β
Bomb?
Hearing this word, a pinch of hair was frightened and numb, the bomb of the revolutionary party exploded from Liangguang to Yanjing City, and two of the five ministers were injured before they left the sea, and even the father regent of Emperor Xuantong dared to blow up, and the more evil thing was that the imperial court did not dare to kill the assassin...
When the Qing court heard the bombs of the revolutionary party, everyone was frightened.
Recently, these revolutionaries, who are said to have worn white armor and white armor to Emperor Chongzhen, took Wuchang with the sound of a cannon, followed by Hunan, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Yunnan, Jiangxi, and almost half of China fell into the hands of the revolutionaries. Even Anhui has lost half of it!
"My lord, what then?"
"What to do? Cold! Notify Master Bingbeido now! Tell him the old man that the revolutionary party has entered the city! β

In a dilapidated mountain temple outside the city, there were a few dumpling leaves and a bunch of duck egg skins scattered on the ground, Chai Dong lit a fire and sat in front of the fire in a daze. The wet wood emitted thick smoke and smoked his little white face into a bag.
I remember that I was still coding words at that time, and I felt a little tired and took a nap in front of the computer desk, and when I woke up, I was already on the streets of Wuhu for three years of Xuantong! The clothes haven't changed, the hairstyle hasn't changed, the appearance hasn't changed, even the Lenovo notebook bought with three months' manuscript fee is still there, and there is still half a pack of unfinished Hongtashan and a limited-edition zippo lighter left in my pocket. Almost nothing has changed, the only change is that I have a 21st century home to the streets of Wuhu in the early 20th century.
A dream was a hundred years ago!
Everything here is too paradoxical, why did the Qing army on the street not arrest him when he saw him, why did the hawkers call themselves "good man" when they saw him, and why were the people on the street so scared when they saw him?
Suddenly, he struck a stirring spirit, Emperor Xuantong ascended the throne in 1908, so now it should be 1911!
Revolution?
Wasn't the first shot fired in Wuchang on October 10, 1911? Today is September 18 of the third year of Xuantong, and the solar calendar should probably be the end of October or the beginning of November, right?
Chai Dongliang's thinking gradually became clear, at this moment, the gunshots at the head of Wuchang City should have sounded, it is estimated that those people today regard themselves as a revolutionary party!
Native chicken tile dog!
Thinking of the group of Qing soldiers he saw today, Chai Dongliang picked out a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth, and such an idiom came out of his heart.
During the Opium War, thousands of British troops beat hundreds of thousands of Qing Eight Banners and Green Battalions to the north, and during the First Sino-Japanese War, the Beiyang Naval Division, which was far better equipped than Yuben, did not even sink a single warship, not to mention the army that peed its pants when it heard the sound of gunfire, Cixi and Guangxu fled westward in a hurry.
It is estimated that today, the fake revolutionary party, has scared these armed Qing troops into peeing, right?
Thinking of these, Chai Dongliang couldn't help but smile wryly, during the Xinhai Revolution, the new army of just one association rebelled, and it was actually able to take Wuchang, which was heavily defended.
This Qing Dynasty is just a dilapidated house that is exposed everywhere, and if you kick the door, this house will collapse!
Coming to this already stormy Qing Dynasty and experiencing this great era is really fascinating! But what can Chai Dongliang do? I'm just a third-rate writer with no fists and no courage, and I haven't been able to catch fire in three years! If you really let yourself join the revolutionary party to fight, you may hear the sound of gunfire and your legs and stomach will turn around!
Forget it, think about tomorrow's things tomorrow, Chai Dongliang's nerves are big enough, and he actually took out half a box of Hongtashan in his pocket, took out a dot, and then opened the notebook.
The screen glows with a glow, and there are several single-player games on it that can be chatted to pass the still, somewhat scary night.
It's a pity that there is no place to charge here, and the battery of the machine can last for five hours at most, and then the computer bought with three months of manuscript money will have to be thrown away!
After playing Plants vs. Zombies for a while, Chai Dongliang lost interest, and the future road was confused, what should he do next?
Boredom, Chai Dong opened his QQ, and the familiar names on it made him feel stunned. A person is cut off from a familiar environment, and that feeling of loneliness alone can drive people crazy.
Suddenly, Chai Dongliang was stunned!
On QQ, an avatar lit up!
Hell yes!
Although it is wireless Internet access, where will there be a network in the Xinhai New Year!
Chai Dongliang rubbed his eyes and pinched himself again, only then did he believe that he was not insane, nor did he dream, and it was indeed the information on the book friend group.
He nodded his portrait with a trembling hand, and a jumble of comments immediately popped up on it.
"Is the group leader dead?"
"Burn the paper first, then summon the spirit!"
"Haven't updated in two days! You can't be a eunuch, right? β
Oh, this should be when I was lying on the table and napping before I crossed, the messages of the cattle in the book friend group, in addition to urging the change, were more bragging and farting with the only female book friend in the group.
Suddenly, a new message from an improvised conversation popped up: "Dada, where are you?" Why didn't you update it yesterday? β
Chai Dongliang was stunned? This can't really be a new message, right?
"I was in Wuhu in the year of the Xinhai Revolution, and I was making a revolution!" He tentatively typed a reply, and then clicked send.
The avatar went black for a moment, then flashed again, followed by a sentence that made Chai Dongliang completely collapse.
"Great, I was in 2012, the sky is falling apart here, I joined the alien legion, and I'm attacking Tokyo!"
Chai Dongliang felt that his lips were dry, and his hands were shaking and he couldn't touch the buttons, could he really communicate with book friends a hundred years later?
"Are you the deputy moderator Ma Xiaobraid?" Chai Dongliang couldn't believe his judgment, and asked again tentatively.
The other party quickly replied: "Big, you're not sick, are you?" Is the mortgage too stressful? β
Chai Dongliang wanted to cry excitedly, and quickly typed a line of words: "The 'I love little wolf dog' in the group, is that guy a man or a woman?" β
The other party replied disdainfully: "Shemale! β
Chai Dongliang slapped his thigh and picked up the treasure!
I can really communicate with my book friends in a hundred years!
Chai Dongliang tried to enter several URLs, but could not connect, which made him a little disappointed, when he was used to entering the URL of the starting point Chinese network, a surprising scene appeared to him!
The site was slow, but miraculously opened!
In the homepage advertising recommendation, Chai Dongliang found his own "Xinhai Supercomputer", in addition to a few posts in the comments, there are also several advertisements from newcomers, and more are urging changes!
At this moment, Chai Dongliang even felt very cordial about the advertisements and jack-of-all-trades posts that he was annoying when he saw them.
Ma Xiaobraid's avatar lit up again: "Big, a few people have already left the group today, if you don't update it, I'll disband the book friend group!" β
"Don't!" Chai Dongliang exclaimed.
This group of book friends is the only connection between him and the 21st century, and once it is cut off, he really becomes an outcast of the world!
"Don't disband! Brother code words all night tonight, and tomorrow will start to guarantee three changes a day during the new book period! β
Ma Xiaobraid made a smile, and his avatar was as obscene as ever.
Chai Dongliang had an idea and had an idea: "Ma Xiaobraid, you can help me check what happened in Anhui and Wuhu during the Xinhai Revolution!" β
"Great, you're Baidu!"
Chai Dongliang was full of depression, so he had to make up an excuse: "My machine is poisoned, and now the webpage can't be opened!" β
Ma Xiaobraid didn't believe it at all: "Flicker, continue to flicker!" β
After that, Ma Xiaobraid's head picture went black.
Chai Dongliang was anxious, the battery had been used for half an hour, and he couldn't even find a place to charge in this ghost place, if it was past tonight, he would have completely cut off contact with the 21st century.
After a while, Ma Xiaobraid's avatar flashed again: "Big, are you in bed with which girl?" γβ
Rub, this slut's imagination is really not ordinarily rich! Chai Dongliang took a sip!
"Boss, I know you're inconvenient now, so I'll check it for you... Don't rob 'Avril' with me in the future!"
Avril is the only female reader in the group, Chai Liang has seen her photos, and she looks okay... If it's in real society, it's just a middle-aged person, but if it's placed in a group of book friends with more wolves and less meat, it becomes a sweet treat.
"Okay, I promise not to bother with Avril in the future!"
"Okay, it's a word, and in half an hour, I'll pass on the information I found to you!"
"Don't, I can't receive it, you send it to the group share, I'll see it myself!"
Chai Dongliang turned off the computer, lit a cigarette, and let the spicy smoke swirl in his lungs, stimulating his mind to be extraordinarily clear.
Outside the mountain temple, I don't know what kind of animal makes a palpitating howl, and the starry sky without industrial pollution is particularly bright, and the beauty is intoxicating.
I don't know how long it took, Chai Dongliang couldn't help but turn on the machine again, and Ma Xiaobraid's avatar lit up again: "Big, the information has been sent to you, don't forget your promise!" β
