These ancients don't seem to have much courage.

Chen Shi quietly observed the expressions and dresses of these ancients, especially the surrounding environment paused, he shuttled through time and space dozens of times, except for the second and third times, even though he did not stay for too long each time, he still saw many fragments of history.

This time he missed the cube, and he walked out of the lake in a state of decadence, and immediately found that the surrounding environment had changed dramatically again.

To be honest, this kind of Suzhou garden-like architecture is only a style that only existed in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, that is, it may have been closer to the 21st century......

Of course, this is also a full four or five hundred years.

The reason why it is not two or three hundred years is because these people don't have pigtail braids, so it is definitely not the Qing Dynasty.

And the most surprising thing is that he understands what these people are saying.

It's like traveling through time and space dozens of times, and not once he can understand the dialect spoken by the people in the local era, not even the Central Plains, let alone shuttle to the ghost place in Central Asia, he didn't understand a word.

Now I can understand what is said on the other side, I feel a little old beijing taste, and a little bit of the teeth of Jiangsu and Zhejiang are not clear, zh, ch, sh are not very clear. But although it is not as standard as Mandarin, if you want to understand it, Chen Shi can still do it.

Being able to understand what the other party is saying means that there is a basis for communication between the two sides, so Chen Shi immediately had an idea, can he use these ancients to find the cube?

Well, of course, he was not afraid that these ancients would find the cube, whether it would lead to an accidental time and space shuttle, if it were not for the assistance of the gamma suit, the high temperature of the cube could instantly burn all the human hand bones into ashes......

Dare to approach the cube, that is the act of looking for death.

The only thing is that he seems to have frightened these ancients to the point of becoming hostile to him.

This is not good, Chen Shi has to let them calm down, otherwise the hostility will conflict, and he may kill them all.

And he did a good job, directly throwing away the two family members, and immediately calmed everyone down, staring at him, his legs were trembling.

If Chen Shi was dressed the same as these ancients, despite such a move, everyone would be afraid, but not so afraid.

However, his dress was too strange, and the impact on the ancients was too great, so that these ancients could not distinguish whether he was a human or a ghost, and they might be treated more as ghosts.

"This, this ...... Chivalry. ”

Ning Kang was speechless, he didn't know what to call the ghost in front of him, if he said it was a water ghost directly, it might make the other party unhappy, and he, the old man, admitted that the other party was a water ghost, and it was estimated that all his family members would collapse.

I had to call him a knight.

However, the word chivalrous is obviously not a good word, those green forest bandits, when they encounter them, they are often called chivalrous to beg for their lives, the word chivalrous is actually a metaphor for bandits.

"You're the master here?"

Chen Shi stood still, but no one dared to move, and the two family members who fell into the water finally found that the lake was not deep, and stood trembling in the lake, and did not dare to go ashore.

"Yes, yes, old man Ning Kang, the master of the Ning family's mansion."

Ning Kang said respectfully.

"Let these people go out, find a place, I want to talk to you."

Chen Shi looked around at the people around him.

The old man doesn't want to talk to you...... What is there to talk about?

But Ning Kang was shocked by Chen Shi's unmortal methods, looking at his methods just now, these twenty or so family members in his own family, even if they go together, I am afraid they are not opponents, if they annoy the other party, will they kill themselves directly?

Ning Kang's mind turned around a lot, and he didn't dare to say anything to refuse, so he could only nod his head bitterly: "Okay, since the chivalrous man said so...... Stand down, all of you. ”

"Dad, I'll go too."

"Zining, don't mess around."

When has this happened, and he still dares to mess around, Ning Kang can't help but be annoyed that he spoils his daughter too much on weekdays.

"No, Dad, if you don't go, I won't go."

Although Ning Zining was also very scared, she insisted on not leaving, for fear that the other party would hurt her father.

Chen Shi watched quietly and didn't speak, but Ning Kang was afraid that the other party would be impatient and wait, so he had to say helplessly: "Then you follow, don't say much, so as not to disturb the guests." ”

As he spoke, he said to another servant, "No more guests today, go and close the gates, and no one shall go out." ”

"Yes, sir."

Ning Kang just had the idea of hinting at the family to report to the official, but when he came up with this idea, he felt that it was inappropriate, maybe after reporting to the official, the officers and soldiers who came over could deal with this "water ghost", but the officers and soldiers would not care if the timing was right, and if they lost their lives in the conflict, what should they do?

Not to mention, he now has to get in close contact with this water ghost, things have changed, and the water ghost can't say that he will be the first to kill.

Thinking left and right, Ning Kang vetoed the idea of reporting to the official.

Now, this water ghost did not hurt anyone's life, obviously he asked for something, and I hope that after fulfilling his wish, he can spare his own life.

Ning Kang is now old, but he still has a little courage when he was young, and he made up his mind, really waved away all the family members, and instructed all the people not to go out, close the house, and not allow others to come in.

Ning Kang accompanied Chen Shi and respectfully led the way, while Chen Shi looked at his surroundings curiously.

People often say that I have been all over the world, and I am well-informed!

But from ancient times to the present, I am afraid that no one has been as well-informed as him.

Think about it, he has traveled to a strange star field tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of light years away, has been to the city of future humans, has seen the remains of extraterrestrial life, and has fought with xenomorphic creatures many times.

And I also saw a variety of different civilizations, and talked and laughed with them!

Now it's even more incredible, traveling back thousands of years ago, seeing the distant ancestors of human beings, experiencing the Stone Age, all the way down and looking at the flowers, one after another for thousands of years.

He has been there, in the present, and in the future......

I have seen the pyramids, I have seen the Persian cavalry, and I have also seen the Mongol cavalry slaughtering cities in Central Asia......

The Mayans also knelt down for him.

The only regret is that he didn't get involved, he was just a passerby......

No, you can't say such unlucky things.

Chen Shi felt a pang in his heart, he didn't want to stay in any era for a long time, and it was better to return to the 21st century as soon as possible.

No matter where he is, he has a huge separation from the era here, and it seems out of place.

took Chen Shi into the study, Ning Kang waved away the maid, leaving only his daughter Ning Zining.

Daughter, daughter, are you really......

Ning Kang saw that Chen Shi didn't pay much attention to Ning Zining, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, if this water ghost was a pervert, it would be bad.

Luckily not.

Chen Shi found a chair to sit down, and Ning Kang saw this and personally poured tea and water for Chen Shi.

Polite kung fu is done to the extreme.

If you don't do it to the extreme, you don't dare, otherwise you will throw yourself into the lake, and you will die on the spot with old arms and legs.
