Chapter 1 The Stranger

"Sister!"

Huang Shang screamed in fright and opened his eyes suddenly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

In front of me is a strange ceiling.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Am I not dead? Where is this? The stone roof, pale gray, granite or marble, should be man-made...... Without imps, it doesn't look like hell, without angels, it doesn't look like heaven, it's not like it...... I crossed over?! ā€

Huang Shang finally read a lot of books, read many episodes, and quickly came to this possibility, almost alive, and couldn't help laughing three times, but the surprise only lasted for a short time, and then a stronger emotion, hatred, and bloody hatred surged into his heart: "Sister, Mengru, Brother Zhong, Sister Fang...... Su Yuchen! I'm going to kill you! ā€

Chewing on the name repeatedly, Huang Shang gritted his teeth, gasped for a long time, closed his eyes, and slowly buried the hatred into his heart and filled in the bone marrow, thinking that this was a very difficult thing, but he didn't know that this was the case, maybe it was the wonderful concentration gained between life and death that played a role, and the inexhaustible hatred poured into the depths of the body like returning to the sea, engraved on the bones, and remembered in the heart.

Exhaling a long breath, Huang Shang tried to sit up and looked around.

It was a stone house, not very big, clean, cold, empty, only two wooden tables and a wooden chair by the glass window, with only a cabinet in the corner, and a large wooden box squatting on the ground next to the bed.

Listening attentively, quietly, the sunlight slanted in, wisps of dust, like the scene of my sister entering the time that afternoon.

Huang Sheng felt a pain in her heart, and shook her head: "Su Yuchen expects me to die, what she said should be the truth, since she said that she wants to take her sister away, she won't kill her...... Since I can come here, there must be a way to go back. The top priority is to determine what time and space this is, and whether it has extraordinary power......"

"There is glass, it should be a modern ......" Huang Sheng retracted his gaze looking at the window, stretched out his arm, stared at his sleeve, and tried to identify the fabric material, but found that it was in vain, because he didn't understand these in the first place, and the quilt was the same, vaguely a hemp fabric, and it was completely indistinguishable if it was more detailed, but it was not all found.

"This body, with all four limbs and head, looks like a teenager...... Well, this world is a human society...... Sure enough, is the telekinesis gone? It seems that only the soul has come, superpowers or something......"

Huang Shang stretched out his hand and tried it, but there was no movement, he smiled bitterly, put on his shoes, and went out in no hurry, avoiding the range that could be seen directly from the window, and walked around the room carefully, examining.

One table was empty, and on the other there was a thick pile of blank straw paper, a few bottles of ink, a few quills, and a few fountain pens. ā€

Touching his hair, it's not too long, it's not too short, and when I pull it over, it's pure black, a little greasy, "Chinese, it's okay...... Has the original owner been in a coma for some days? Strange, not very hungry......"

There were no other clues, only the big box at the head of the bed.

"This box should be your own, look at this posture, it's a bit like a thief on the way to surrender, but I'm unconscious but not injured, is it unaccustomed or something else......"

This is a very old style of wooden box, but it is definitely not old, the workmanship is also very exquisite, antique, hanging a small brass lock, the yellow dress groped through the pockets, found a key in the inner pocket of the jacket, opened it, there are some clothes, books, cloth bags.

Huang Shang observed for a while, the clothes were stacked, the style could only be seen approximately, roughly like the ancient Chinese clothes seen on TV, but the style was a little strange, twisted buttons and narrow sleeves, standing collar and short placket, without any cumbersomeness, very concise, giving people an indescribable strange feeling, and then draw the book to see, Huang Shang was in good spirits:

"Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", "Heavenly Creation", "Theory of Heavenly Evolution", "Atlas of the Sea Kingdom", "Renxue", "Theory of National Salvation", "The Gain of the Westernization Movement", ...... These are simplified, line-bound books;

Geometry, Algebra, Gewu, Chemistry, World History, Dialectics...... These are also simplified characters, and some of them look like textbooks.

I have read it one by one, and the wind and rain of more than 100 years ago are blowing in my face.

Salvation! Picture saving! Power! Seek rich!

Motion! Improve! Ism! Revolution!

War! Slaughter! Blood! Death!

"Qing Dynasty? Or the Republic of China? No braids, it seems to be the Republic of China, the hope of extraordinary power ......"

Huang Shang's heart gradually sank, put the book in place, opened three cloth bags, the first one, is some silver dollars, a few large money tickets, counted, a total of four hundred and four yuan, the print on it makes people a little confused: the twenty-seventh year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty;

"Qing Guangxu? What's going on? ā€

The second, several letters, opened and examined, are all family letters, written by the same person:

My brother saw the words like a meeting: ...... My sister heard that England is cold and rainy, and studying abroad is particularly difficult, so I hope my brother will pay attention to food and daily life...... Don't worry about everything at home, although your uncle and aunt are around, your sister also has a plan...... I hope that my brother will return from his studies as soon as possible to protect his family and defend the country. The little sister Gu Xi bowed down.

The tone of the letter was calm, Dun Dun taught, and he mentioned it many times, not like a sister, but like a sister.

"This is early twentieth-century England? I'm here to study abroad, my family is in a good financial situation, I have a sister like an older sister, I don't have parents, and my uncle and aunt are not good people......"

Huang Shang settled down, and opened the third one, which was an official document, written vertically from right to left:

Gu Bei, a ninth-year student of Daqingjing Middle School, has excellent grades in school and good moral character, and has been sent to study in Great Britain and the United Kingdom of Ireland for three years, and his life and death have been proven.

There is a black and white photo in the upper left corner, on which the teenager looks like he is fourteen or fifteen years old, with long hair, no braids, clear eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and a good skin, but there is some cringe in his eyes, which inevitably reduces the color by three points, and the lower left corner is a red big seal: the Prime Minister's National Affairs Yamen, the date is written on the seal: June 13, the 30th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, and the name is signed: Tan Sitong.

This document is quite informative, and the photo is undoubtedly the original owner Gu Bei himself, and the rest is all valid information, which is very valuable.

"This is the Qing Dynasty? But what the hell is the hair, and there are no braids! ā€

Huang Shang touched the lush hair on his head and fell into deep thought, "Study abroad knight, is the knight still useful in this year?" Life and death have been proven, I always feel a little dangerous, Gu Bei has thin arms and legs, and his spirit is also a little cowardly, choose such a person to learn the way of knighthood? Both parents are dead, uncles and aunts are bad, and there seems to be some money in the family, how can it seem that they have been fooled? No, there is such a mature sister here, and this kind of big thing shouldn't leak...... Could it be forced? Prime Minister Yamen, I have learned in this history book, the central department of the Westernization Movement, has a lot of power, but it was abolished after the disastrous defeat of the Beiyang Naval Division in the Sino-Japanese First Sino-Japanese Naval War in 1894, and it is still there, and it seems that it still retains a lot of power...... Thirty years of Guangxu, hmm, is it 1904 or 05 years? I can't remember exactly, it should have been these two years, but this signature ......"

Fortunately, although high school is divided into arts and sciences, there is still such a thing as the entrance examination, and many things in the liberal arts are still remembered and not returned to the teacher:

"Tan Sitong, the head of the six gentlemen of Wuxu, has lived until now, and he is still in a high position, it seems that there has been a turning point in this history, and it is related to the so-called knights? Or is it...... Did another time-traveler come first? The latter is a little more likely, so how long has he been here? How many things have changed? Still alive? It seems that there is no anti-Qing, but rather to maintain the rule of the Qing court, but at the same time it is also easy to obey and betray the Manchu nobles, these two behaviors are completely contradictory, well, strange ......"

Huang Sheng couldn't think of a clue for a while, but kept it in mind for the time being, put the things as they were, locked the box, since he was here to study, and the things were still there, there should be no danger, so he no longer shy away, paced to the window, pushed open the window, and looked at it.

The first thing that catches your eye is a large open meadow, with the undulation of the terrain, stretching far away, verdant and faint, and the left branches and leaves of the meadow have been a little yellowed woods, for this foreign country painted a thick layer of solemn and bleak color, through the sky is about to run to the middle of the autumn sun, more immersed.

Suddenly, a person turned out of the dusk deciduous forest, a slender figure, fit, short hair, black eyes, flat boots, wearing a long sword, a Chinese woman.

No, it is not appropriate to say that it is a woman, she is close, in the eyes of Huang Shang, she will never be more than twenty years old, it is the most dazzling years of the girl, but although her face is beautiful, her expression is calm and silent, she has faded away from the innocence and immaturity of the untouched, and hides the firmness of a rock, which makes her seem to be several years old out of thin air.

She floated over like a cloud, and Huang Sheng saw that there were two people behind her, holding some things, it seemed to be maids, but the girl was so eye-catching that it took up all the attention at once, and people ignored them.

The girl pushed the door in, looked over, and her surprise flashed: "Are you awake?" I'm Yu Tunan, and I came here a year ago. ā€

"Are international students also sent in batches? There are only two in this place? ā€

Huang Sheng thought about it, scratched his head and said, "I'm Gu Bei, it seems that I just came, if there is anything to pay attention to, please ask my senior sister for advice." ā€

Yu Tunan handed over a piece of paper, looked him in the eye and asked, "You got off the ship and were in a coma for three days, so weak, do you really want to become a knight?" ā€

"Being weak for a moment is not necessarily weak forever."

Huang Sheng said firmly, took the paper and looked at it, it was a table similar to the class schedule, the week system, there were six days full of courses: swordsmanship, marksmanship, equipment, horsemanship, commanding, etc., and even philosophy, literature, art, arithmetic, physics, chemistry, history and other subjects.

Huang Shang glanced at it and was a little surprised, the previous training courses were just that, which was the proper meaning of a knight, but the latter cultural courses were a little abrupt, so he asked directly: "Senior Sister Yu, do knights also want to learn mathematics and physics?" ā€

Yu Tu Nan didn't seem to have any objection to his name, and replied calmly: "I heard that there was no such thing before, but since the chief instructor said that the world has changed, today's knights not only need to have extraordinary bravery, but also learn to understand the laws of the nature of the world, so he added these. ā€

Huang Sheng became interested and asked, "Who is the chief instructor?" ā€

"Sherlock Holmes."
