Chapter 260: Through Time and Space 2
Zhang Xiaohu looked back, and there were no pursuers behind him, and more than a dozen of them were sitting on the ground.
The surrounding woods are silent, and the trees are tall and dense. The dozen or so of them don't have to worry about getting lost here and not being able to get out, as long as they can stay here for three days, they can leave here.
"The books are all lies!" Zhao Zixuan kicked the fallen leaves on the ground with his feet and sighed.
"Yo hey! Which book can fool our Zhao Gongzi, I really want to learn and learn! Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile. In fact, since they left the Double Stack World and officially set foot on their way home, he has been in a good mood!
Finally, I can stay away from those deceitful people, away from those terrifying monsters, and away from those perverted engineers! Although the journey home is still far away and full of unknowns, they have finally taken the first step!
And this wonderful shuttle journey is not for everyone to have the opportunity to try. It's better to relax and enjoy the process.
Because they are space travelers, they don't need to worry about the passage of time, as long as they find the right world, for them, it is only a few hours lost.
"Which book? History books, of course! Zhao Zixuan said angrily: "It is also said that the Tang Dynasty is enlightened, the people are enthusiastic about foreign visitors, and there are tens of thousands of envoys from various countries living in Chang'an City." But if you look at our embarrassed appearance now, being chased by a few black brothers, I thought I was in Africa! ”
"You don't allow racism!" Zhang Xiaohu picked up a stone and threw it at Zhao Zixuan.
"Originally, we were said to be Turkic! Eyes and feet! Zhao Zixuan was still haunted by the farmer just now, who mistook a few people for Turks.
"Senior, I can roughly deduce where this is!" Li Yichen said.
"So amazing?" Zhao Zixuan heard the spirit and immediately asked.
"This is probably somewhere in Shandong or Hebei, and in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, these two places were often attacked by the Turks from the south, especially when the crops were harvested, and such raids were commonplace. Therefore, the villagers in these places are particularly sensitive to strangers and are very wary! ”
"Yichen, tell us about it! We are all uneducated people! Zhang Xiaohu was also interested and joked. Anyway, this world is not what they are looking for, they only need to hide here for three days, and then they will leave, just to pass the time.
"Historically, in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the world was initially decided, the country had just been unified, and the Turks in the north had been strong for a long time. All the powerful northern nomads have a dream of going south, and the Turks are even more so, and when it comes to their origins, there is a very magical record in the ancient books, do you want to hear it? Li Yichen said with a smile.
"Yichen, why did you start selling well, this is not good, let's talk about it!" Zhao Zixuan pretended to be serious and said.
"It is recorded in ancient books that the Turks were originally a branch of the Xiongnu, and were later destroyed by neighboring countries, when there was a 10-year-old boy, the soldiers saw that he was young and could not bear to kill him, so they cut off his feet and threw him into the grass. Later, the child was rescued by a she-wolf, and when he grew up, he was united with the wolf, and the king of the neighboring country heard that the child had grown up, and was afraid of future troubles, so he sent someone to kill him, and the man who killed him, when he saw a wolf beside him, also wanted to kill it together, but the wolf ran away and fled to a cave north of Gaochang. In that cave, the wolf gave birth to 10 young boys, and they gradually grew up, started their own families, and reproduced. One of them, living in the Altai Mountains, resembles a helmet during battle, and the locals call it Turkic, so they take the Turkic clan name. ”
"I think I've heard a story like this!" King Peter smiled: "Didn't the ancestors of ancient Rome also claim to have been raised by wolves?" It seems that these peoples have a dream of combining with nature! ”
"Old Peter, what you said is really obscene, what is the combination with nature, disgusting!" Zhao Zixuan scolded with a smile.
"My words are not dirty, it's your brain that is dirty!" King Peter also laughed and scolded.
Everyone has gone through so many ups and downs together, and it doesn't hurt at all to make some painless jokes about each other.
"Yichen, I remember that Turkic people shouldn't be blonde and blue-eyed Caucasians? Apparently we are not! Why did that villager call us Turks? In fact, not only Zhao Zixuan felt incomprehensible, but even Zhang Xiaohu was a little puzzled.
"Who said that the Turks are Caucasians, the Turks are a cultural formation, they have a similar language, they have common customs. This Turkic is similar to the name of the Central Plains Dynasty. In the steppe, which tribe is strong, can control other forces, forming a loose alliance, the early Xiongnu, Xianbei, the later Rouran, Tiele, Turkic are constantly alternated in this way, until Temujin unified all the nomadic tribes in the north, gave them a unified title "Mongols", since then, there are basically no other ethnic groups in the north again. Li Yichen said.
Everyone is just to kill time, Li Yichen spoke seriously, at the beginning, everyone could still listen patiently, gradually, one by one, they all scratched their ears and cheeks, they were highly nervous for a long time, they could sit still and listen to other people's lectures, at this time, they just wished that they could fall asleep and not listen to Li Yichen's class.
Li Yichen is an extremely intelligent woman, and when she saw that even Zhang Xiaohu began to yawn, she immediately changed the topic so that everyone could participate, and soon the interest of the group of people rose again.
As they saw the surrounding woods gradually darken, they knew it was going to be dark.
"Lao Zhang, let's not make a fire!" Zhao Zixuan asked.
Because of their special circumstances, the only thing they can carry with them is this protective suit and the shuttle on their waists, and in addition, other items can't withstand the energy of the spatial turbulence, and all of them will disappear.
Therefore, Y87564 specially made this dress for several people, itself has many functions, but they are all survival functions, and there is no weapon like this, which is also the point that Zhao Zixuan is most dissatisfied with.
A dozen of them were nearby to pick up some dry wood, but because of the humidity in the woods, they didn't harvest much, only a dozen or so, but it should be no problem to hold on overnight.
The method of starting a fire is particularly simple, as the sleeves of their coats can release a stream of positive and negative electrons by touching the buttons inside, creating a high-temperature flame that ignites the wood.
Soon a bonfire appeared, and the surrounding area was immediately restored to light. They are in order, with two people looking at their surroundings from different positions to prevent other problems.
Zhang Xiaohu knew that in ancient times, there were still many fierce beasts in various parts of China, with wolves and tigers being the most abusive. In the Song Dynasty alone, as long as there were hills and forests, there would be tigers, which caused great panic in the local area. He thinks of the era he lives in, in the wild mountains and forests, seeing a pheasant, seeing a rabbit can be on the news, which is also a kind of sadness brought about by the progress of the times, and the living environment is becoming more and more bad.
Several of them had been holding some ears of wheat before, which would be their food for three days. Although they are outsiders, they still need food and water. Otherwise, there will be discomfort. It's just that these uncomfortable feelings will disappear automatically after crossing into other worlds.
Anyway, there was no cooking utensils, so the ears of wheat could only be thrown into the fire, and after some barbecue, the wheat grains swelled and emitted a faint aroma, and when they were gently twisted in the hand, the outer husk would automatically fall off, leaving only the roasted wheat.
This way of eating is the first time even Zhang Xiaohu has tried it, not to mention King Peter, a man from the future.
The hot wheat grains were thrown in the mouth, and when I first chewed it, I only felt a little interference, and it was difficult to swallow, but this thing seemed to have magical powers, and the more I chewed, the more fragrant it became.
Master Wang sat by the fire, looked at everyone and said with a smile: "This way of eating, we did it when we were children in the field, I can't imagine that after so many years, we can eat this bite here, it's really ......" Master Wang's appearance has also changed a lot now and before.
Because the cell reorganization is only based on the health status and age of the living organism itself, and does not consider the mentality, Master Wang at this time has completely recovered to the appearance of a man in his forties, and he no longer has the haggard and depressed appearance before.
The rest of the team, except for three who Zhang Xiaohu was not familiar with before, the rest were his long-lost classmates, and these people had all returned to the age when they first stepped into the double world, and they all became teenagers. It seems that as Y87564 says, the two-fold world connects all the spaces, and its own rules are excluded by the independent spaces. If this were not the case, all the spaces would collapse due to the existence of the special space of the Twin Disc World.
Zhao Zixuan suddenly rushed back from outside the forest, and he was the first person to go out on duty. With a heavy face, he walked up to Zhang Xiaohu and said softly, "Old Zhang, there is a situation!" ”
When the people around him saw him, they immediately understood that something might have happened around them, and they immediately extinguished the bonfire that was burning. Darkness all around.
Zhao Zixuan said to everyone: "I just saw a group of fires scattered among each other and are rushing towards this side, I am worried that those officers and soldiers may have entered the mountains to look for us!" ”
"Quite possibly!" Zhang Xiaohu judged: "It seems that those people really regard us as Turks, this is the rhythm of not giving up if we don't catch it!" ”
Several people hurriedly hid in a nearby ravine, covering their bodies with leaves.
The flickering fires quickly passed near them.
It was not the men they had seen in the daytime, all dressed in disheveled leather armor and leather armor, with felt hats, bows behind their backs, and quivers around their waists. Some also had scimitars hanging from their waists, while others held long lances. There are about fifty people, all of them with tigers on their backs, and their faces are full of murderous anger.
After all these people were far away, Zhang Xiaohu and the others dared to come out.
Zhao Zixuan exclaimed, "Are those Turkic people?" ”
"It should be them!" Zhang Xiaohu is colorful.
It turned out that Li Yichen's inference was correct, these Turks really arrived as promised, and they were ready to attack at night.
