Chapter 19: Trade Secrets
The speed of the old man's flying sword was not fast, but it circled over everyone's heads, with a radius of about 15 meters. This is different from the image of the sword immortal in Wang Xijia's heart: in his heart, the speed of the flying sword is very fast, about the speed of light, so that when the flying sword starts to operate, everyone can only see the sword light.
Wang Xijia saw that the speed of this old man's flying sword was about the same as the speed of the paper airplane he usually played, maybe this flying sword was just a magic trick?
The surrounding crowd naturally did not have Wang Xijia's knowledge, and everyone was very scared when they saw a sword flying in the sky. No one applauded the old man's performance, and they all screamed and ran around, and the scene was chaotic for a while, and there was almost a stampede.
The old man was also a little panicked when he saw that the audience began to run away, and immediately put away his sword, and the person also descended to the ground, and said: "Don't panic! I am Yuan Qingniu Zhenren of Qingniu Mountain, and I am carrying the Holy Spirit and the Holy Son down the mountain to eliminate demons and pass by here today. It can calculate the good luck and evil for everyone, eliminate disasters and avoid diseases!"
As soon as he said this, Wang Xika suddenly relieved his heart - this must be a charlatan, it must be a "Qingniu Mountain Yuan Zhenren", and it should not be a sword immortal. I haven't seen any real sword immortals who make money by street performers.
However, this charlatan is also a bit of a trick, and he has that set of flying swords, as well as the trinity of the Holy Father, Holy Spirit and Holy Son, which is quite ingenious, even if it is not a trick to cheat money, relying on this set of techniques to be a magician will not lack an audience.
Yuan Zhenren obviously didn't want to make money as a magician, so he began to sell his talisman after performing on stage. When Shanghekou Village was still using bamboo slips, Yuan Zhenren didn't know where to get stacks of yellow paper, on which various patterns were scribbled, 5 cents a piece, and after buying it, it could eliminate disasters and avoid difficulties.
The crowd swarmed up and shot the stack of yellow paper as if they didn't want money. Wang Xijia also approached to buy a talisman, and when he got it, he found that it was the logo of NBA star Maddy's "T M 1". Looking at the talismans in other people's hands, some are Kobe's black mamba logo, some are Iverson's logo, and even Nike and Adidas' logos. Wang Xijia glanced at Yuan Zhenren's shoes again, it was obvious that they were a pair of modern style shoes, and he instantly had a bottom in his heart - this Yuan Zhenren also traveled back from modern times!
The crowd of people waiting to buy talismans gradually decreased, Wang Xika quietly walked to Yuan Zhenren's side and said, "Dude, do you have AJ1?" AJ1 is the classic sneaker of NBA star Michael Jordan, and the ancients didn't understand this allusion at all.
Yuan Zhenren's expression changed when he heard this, and he said to Wang Xijia: "Dude, when I sell the talisman, let's find a place to talk." "This talisman is really good to sell, Yuan Zhenren prepared 500 copies of the talisman, and it was sold out in less than 20 minutes, just like handing out leaflets. Yuan Zhenren jumped back to the high platform and said, "Today's runes have been issued, if you want to buy it, please be early next time." After speaking, he walked to Wang Xijia's side and made a color, Wang Xijia understood and followed Yuan Zhenren.
Yuan Zhenren walked back to the casino, it turned out that he had a room on the third floor of the casino, which was only a few steps away from where he usually "went to work". Lang Naduo and Peng Lianhu wanted to follow in, but Yuan Zhenren stopped and said to Wang Xijia: "I only talk to you." ”
Wang Xijia said to the two, you follow Jiao Niang back to the carriage to find Zack first, and I will come in a while. When Peng Lianhu left, he reluctantly said: "Master, remember to ask the real person for a few talismans, keep you safe!"
Wang Xijia nodded and closed the door. This room has a very modern Simmons mattress, I don't know where Yuan Zhenren got it. Wang Xijia hadn't slept Simmons since he crossed over, and if he wasn't a guest now, he really wanted to lie on the bed and roll a few times.
"I bend the spring of this bed with iron wire, and I make the sponge from wood fiber, right?" Yuan Zhenren said.
Wang Xijia thought to himself that if you don't have a lathe, how can you use a spring made of iron wire, is it made with a rolling pin? There is also a sponge mattress, if you have this craft of making sponges from wood fiber, what kind of charms are you still selling on the street?
But he didn't choose this topic, but turned the topic to the child brought by Yuan Zhenren, and said: "Is this your son?
The kid ignored Wang Xika, turned to his father, and said, "Dad, when are we going back?" ”
Yuan Zhenren embarrassedly threw dozens of dollars to the kid and said, "It's almost over, you go downstairs to play cards, and I'll talk to my uncle about something." ”
The kid took the money and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Yuan Zhenren looked at Wang Xika and said, "You are Wang Xika, right?" Wang Xika was stunned: "How do you know my name?"
Yuan Zhenren laughed: "I saw it on the news, it was big news that you used an iron cloth shirt to carry a nuclear bomb on the earth back then, and your photos are all over the earth, who doesn't know you?"
Wang Xijia crossed the first ten low-key people, and when he heard that he was famous on the earth, he had to scratch his head shyly and said, "Then you crossed after me, how did you cross over?"
Yuan Zhenren: "I traveled 20 years later than you, I came in 2080, and like you, I was also hit by a nuclear bomb." ”
"What's the matter? You're trying to use a nuclear bomb to survive the disaster?"
"No, a few years after you left, there was a coronavirus plague on the earth, which was more serious than the one in 2020, and it was impossible to prevent it. After the plague is over, there is an economic crisis, and then the world war begins, and nuclear bombs are thrown everywhere. That day, I led my son to find a bomb shelter, but before I could get to the bunker, I was hit with a nuclear bomb on my head, and I woke up here. ”
Wang Xika was simply stunned, he knew that in 2020, because of the global spread of the coronavirus, he did almost fight a world war, but fortunately, he did not fight later, and developed peacefully for decades. I didn't expect 2080 to come again, which shows that mankind really won't learn lessons from history.
"Well, do you know anything about my lover? Wang Xijia is most concerned about his wife before he crossed.
"After you were bombed, Su Rui inherited your inheritance, and at the beginning she also became a world celebrity, and the major media rushed to interview her, and then she bought a small island in the Pacific Ocean, and no one was allowed to approach, so there was no news. ”
"Did she remarry?"
"Haven't heard of it. ”
"Did the world war blow up her island? Is the war over, and which side won?"
"I don't know, I was hit with a nuclear bomb as soon as I started fighting. ”
Yuan Qingniu's words were too much information, and Wang Xika was speechless for a while. He always felt that the life before the time crossing was a very distant thing, but Yuan Qingniu's conversation brought that kind of life to his eyes. If he hadn't practiced the iron cloth shirt and challenged the nuclear bomb at that time, what would have been the situation now? Will he be able to escape this world war? He imagined the hellish scene of nuclear war, and felt that maybe it would be the best choice to carry a nuclear bomb into this world.
"By the way, you want the AJ1, I just have a pair here. 44 yards, if you want it, 10 taels of silver" Yuan Qingniu saw that Wang Xika didn't speak for a long time, and threw a pair of shoes in front of him.
Wang Xika looked at the shoes in front of him, AJ1 replica, black and red toes. If it is genuine, it is about 1400 yuan, and 10 taels of silver is not much. Wang Xika threw 10 taels of silver to Yuan Qingniu, put it on and tried it on, and it fit perfectly.
I don't know why, wearing these sneakers thousands of years later, Wang Xijia's thoughts were pulled back from the world's nuclear war to this era of three emperors and five emperors. Seeing that Yuan Qingniu was playing with the small sword that he was performing just now, it turned out to be a telescopic remote control sword.
Why would such a person who had experienced the Third World War be willing to be a charlatan? This Yuan Qingniu is really a mystery.
"If there is a nuclear war, then there should be many people in our world who have crossed over, right?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen it, but I've seen one of you. ”
"How long have you been here?"
"Later than you"
After receiving Wang Xijia's money, this Yuan Qingniu seemed to be reluctant to chat, and his answer became simpler, as if Wang Xijia was just another ignorant ancient man who bought talismans from him. But Wang Xika finally met a person from modern society, and he couldn't close the chatterbox.
"Do you know where this place we are? How far is it from the sea? I want to draw a map, would you like to join us?"
"I don't know, I don't want to"
"Hey, do you know, now our era is the era of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, I may have participated in a war between Chiyou and Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, Chiyou is my friend, are you interested in coming along?"
"Not interested. ”
"If I help Chiyou's side win, will it change the course of history?"
"It doesn't matter if primitive people win or lose wars, anyway, human beings will end up fighting a nuclear war. ”
"Do you know how to travel back in time to modern society?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to go back. Hey, listen, I just brought you here to buy shoes, and you got the AJ1 you wanted, if there's nothing else, can you not disturb my rest?"
It seems that Yuan Zhenren has issued an eviction order, if he intends to talk to death, then Wang Xika will not be able to talk about it.
Since this is the case, Wang Xika didn't have a long time to stay, so he got up and said goodbye. After walking a few steps, he turned around and asked, "May I ask where did you get these shoes and your remote control equipment?"
When Wang Xika crossed over, he belonged to the "soul wear", and even his body was not his original body, let alone what sneakers he brought to cross over. This Peng Qingniu is also remote control equipment and sneakers, and I haven't heard of someone crossing and bringing things.
Yuan Zhenren stared at Wang Xijia's eyes and said slowly: "Trade secrets, no comment." ”
