Chapter 17: The Final Return to the Modern Tense
Xiao Yu was also slowly leaving with anxiety, for fear that Shopkeeper Liu would regret it again. Suddenly, he heard the shopkeeper Liu shouting at him, and suddenly the cold sweat on his back flowed down.
The old fellow, as expected, repented, alas... It's really better for people to have a thousand calculations, than for the sky to have one.
Xiao Yu turned around, and thought about taking off the backpack and returning the calligraphy and paintings to others, but he didn't expect the shopkeeper Liu to come over from the house with a robe and hat, and said: "It's inconvenient for you to wear different clothes, here is a robe and a blue hat for you to wear, you can avoid gossip." ”
At this time, Xiao Yu was greatly moved, thinking that he would spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain... It's a bit mean.
After being moved, I thought about returning one of the paintings to others and keeping one for myself. Before the words could be spoken, Shopkeeper Liu had already hurriedly ran to the front hall to deal with those Eight Banner disciples.
Xiao Yu put on his hat and robe, and walked out of the back door to the street with guilt, looking for the direction he came from. After walking for about half an hour, it felt like it wasn't too far from the city gates. I felt a little comforted that I was wearing a Qing Dynasty coat and hat, but the people on the street didn't pay much attention to me.
A trip through the journey was very joyful, and I couldn't help humming a song proudly. Just when he was snorting proudly, he saw four or five people walking towards him, and Xiao Yu saw that it was the boy who bought his own mineral water bottle in Dashilar.
Xiao Yu hurriedly lowered his hat to cover his face.
Those Eight Banners disciples were all smiling and fiddling with the things in their hands, Xiao Yu saw that the things in their hands were folding umbrellas and flashlights, and two of them were holding mineral water in their hands...
Xiao Yu couldn't help but be a little curious, so he turned around and slowly followed behind them to listen to what they were talking about.
"An umbrella costs three hundred taels of silver, haha, so exquisite, it's really worth it, the shopkeeper will cost five hundred taels when he opens his mouth, if it weren't for the help of the third child, I would really have to spend two hundred taels more." A chubby kid in a gorgeous dress said.
The boy who bought the mineral water bottle last time said: "The shopkeeper who lost money raised the price for me at that time and gave us the price because I was ashamed, you see the little sun I bought, the price is eight hundred taels, and I have not won it for five hundred taels?"
"Your soft glass bottle only cost fifty taels, why do you want us to pay one hundred taels? It's really an unfair deal..." It seems that two children bought a bottle of mineral water for one hundred taels.
The disciple of the Eight Banners who saw him for the first time said: "Okay, okay, don't make trouble, all the strange things in the world are owned by us, wouldn't it be happy? With that, he looked proud.
When Xiao Yu heard their conversation, he realized that Shopkeeper Liu had sold those things for a full 1,500 taels of silver, and he didn't bring sausages and bread or anything. It seems that Shopkeeper Liu has made a lot of money, and the guilt of Shopkeeper Liu in his heart was suddenly swept away.
The sun was setting in the west, and Xiao Yu felt very hungry, so he wanted to find a restaurant to eat and talk about it. It is a prosperous place, and there are many hotels and pubs. I didn't go far to see a decent restaurant, and when I looked up, I saw that it said 'Wuwei Building' and didn't care what kind of cuisine it was, so I walked into the restaurant with my feet up.
was already in the hotel, and the guy came forward to greet him enthusiastically: "This master, how many may I ask?"
Xiao Yu explained to him that there was only one, and the man took him to a corner table and sat down and took off his hat. Seeing that the walls were full of recipes, written 'Dongpo elbow', 'braised beef', etc., I pointed out randomly, and it was estimated that there were seven or eight dishes.
After a while, the steaming dishes were served, and Xiao Yu saw that his stomach was even more hungry, so he picked up the chopsticks and ate it.
Maybe it's because they are all pollution-free organic vegetables and meats, and the taste is particularly sweet.
Xiao Yu ate the four meat and three vegetarian dishes on the seven plates in one go, and wiped his mouth after eating. Seeing this, the guy hurriedly put the pot of tea in front of Xiao Yu.
I saw him pour a cup and take a sip, and I felt that it was very different from what I drank at Shopkeeper Liu's house. He grinned and said that the tea was not good, and the guy hurriedly changed another pot for him, only to feel that it was a little tasteful.
It may be that Xiao Yu's appearance alarmed the shopkeeper, and the guys also looked here with wide eyes. Looking at this guy without braids who is bareheaded, wearing a sack-like costume inside his robe, and the huge toe shoes under his feet, I have to wonder if he is here to eat the overlord meal...
Seeing this, Xiao Yu also felt that he had almost eaten and drunk, and his stomach was bulging like a pot, so he shouted to the store guy to pay. When the guy heard the word pay, he hurriedly stepped forward to fill Xiao Yu's water cup, took half a step back and said, "This master, you spent a total of seven hundred and twenty yuan in the small shop." ”
Xiao Yu was stunned, he didn't know that the Qing Dynasty generally used money to settle accounts, so he was a little confused, anyway, he thought that he had fifty taels of silver in his backpack, which was enough to deal with.
He said, "Well, how much is it converted into silver?"
"Converted into cash, it should be seven cents and two cents of silver," the guy replied with a smile on his face.
A table of big dishes costs less than a tael of silver?Xiao Yu couldn't believe it, and his eyes looked at the plates on the table.
Seeing Xiao Yu in a daze, the guy said a little lightly: "This master doesn't have any fractional cash bills? This sentence obviously doubts Xiao Yu's ability to pay.
When Xiao Yu heard this, he was a little angry, and scolded in his heart: "What's the matter, when I went to a restaurant to eat in my own era, I was looked down upon by the waiter, and when I came to the Qing Dynasty, I was also affected by this feudal society?"
The man was stunned when he took out such a large ingot of silver. The shopkeeper also saw the scene here, and knew that he was encountering hard stubble, so he was also busy accompanying Xiao Yu and scolded the guy.
When Xiao Yu reached into his bag and touched the silver, he came across a small piece of hard bangbang. It immediately became clear that it was a tael of silver selling sausages. Look at the shopkeeper scolding the guy, and the anger in my heart has disappeared a lot. So he took out a tael of silver and put it on the table, and said, "Is this tael enough to pay for food?"
The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Enough, enough, there is still more than enough, stay here and find the balance." ”
Xiao Yu tossed enough, and he was full, so he said: "Forget it, the rest will be rewarded to this guy, even if it is compensation for being scolded by you." ”
The guy hurriedly approached excitedly to thank him, Xiao Yu smiled, put the ingot of silver into the bag, put on his hat and carried the bag, and walked out of the hotel under the compliment of the shopkeeper and the guy.
Out of the hotel, it was almost dusk, and Xiao Yu was busy identifying the signboard signs on the street. After walking for a while, he saw the gate of the city, and his heart was overjoyed, so he hastened his pace and went out of the city.
After leaving the city, the sky was already dark, and after identifying the direction, I walked quickly towards the place where I had crossed...
After walking for a while, I couldn't see my fingers, and my hand involuntarily touched the backpack, and when I touched the two paintings, I realized that the flashlight had changed things.
Xiao Yu had to grope the ground to find the big stone, and after looking for a long time, there was no trace. It was pitch black in front of him, and Xiao Yu sat on the ground in frustration, but he was angry that it was cloudy tonight, and there was not even a star in the sky.
The night was getting late, Xiao Yu felt a burst of coldness, and he had no choice but to estimate the time. In the haze, Xiao Yu was a little sleepy, and fell asleep in a daze.
A cold wind blew, Xiao Yu woke up smartly, rubbed his confused eyes, and saw that it was still dark in front of him. Then he pulled down his hat and lay on his arm thinking about continuing to sleep, and at the moment of his side head, he saw a halo appear in the distance, which was slowly turning from dark to bright.
When Xiao Yu saw it, he stood up excitedly, knowing that the 'Gate of Time and Space' had appeared again. The aura is speeding up and brightening, I'm a mother, I'm at least two hundred meters away from that halo. If you don't run, you won't be able to catch up, and in a hurry, Xiao Yu pulled out his feet and ran towards the halo.
It's getting closer and closer to the aura, but the brightness of the aura is almost reaching its limit. Xiao Yu knew that once the aura disappeared when it darkened, he would have to wait for the next time.
At the moment, regardless of his panting physical strength, he used his greatest strength to rush over when the aura darkened, and when he was tired and could barely take a step, the suction force in the aura sucked him in at once...
Xiao Yu let out a long breath, glad that he finally got on the train home... No, the tunnel home.
After settling down a little, he forgot the age of his existence in a panic. Busy wrenching his fingers to calculate the exact time when he crossed over to the Qing Dynasty, otherwise he might not know which dynasty this tunnel would throw him in.
Just when Xiao Yu calmed down and counted the exact date, he suddenly remembered that he had traveled to the Qing Dynasty with his mind for two years, and he thought that he must not travel to the Republic of China, it was a world of war. Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing in my heart, shook my head and said to myself: "Hehe, Republic of China, impossible..."
As soon as I finished saying this, I felt that my body was sucked out of the window at once...
Xiao Yu slammed on the ground, stood up and saw the artillery fire in the distance, the gunshots were loud, and the shouts came and went... Oh my god, it's really the Republic of China?
Xiao Yu was suddenly frightened, and when he wanted to run, he suddenly found that an aura behind him was shrinking, Xiao Yu couldn't take care of it when he saw this, no matter how much he tried his best to get into the aura, he suddenly felt that something in his backpack had fallen outside.
couldn't care about anything, and finally returned to the 'Gate of Time' After a false alarm, Xiao Yu patted his chest. Thinking that I must not talk nonsense anymore, I rested for a moment to keep my brain clear, and repeated yesterday's precise day and time in my mind. That's right.
I was thinking about 12 a.m. on July 23, 2013... That suction force appeared again, and Xiao Yu felt that he was sucked out by a strong force again. Alas... Another big heel fell to the ground.
Xiao Yu was thrown several times in one day, and he was really about to be thrown into a dog...
He lay on the ground, and he really didn't want to get up again, because he didn't know where he had fallen again, and he didn't even know where he had fallen. After resting for a while, I turned my head to look around, how could it be daytime? I should have seen the direction of the sun in the afternoon, and after sitting up, I looked around, and felt that this place was familiar? I couldn't help but cheer at once.
Because the place where he was was the place he crossed yesterday, he suddenly had a feeling of going home, and he hurriedly stood up and looked around for Zhang He and Chen Zhen.
