Push open the door.

A blinding glow came.

Ji Sheng couldn't help but stretch out his hand to block his forehead, and only then did he regain his vision slightly.

The sound of a news broadcast similar to that of an old-fashioned radio rang in my ears: "On the occasion of the 10th anniversary of reform and opening up, the chief designer met with Indian Prime Minister Rajiv. During his speech, Gandhi pointed out that it is necessary to establish a new international political order and a new international economic order based on the five principles of peaceful coexistence......"

The 10th anniversary of reform and opening up?

It's all 2022 and the news of 1988 is still broadcast?

Ji Sheng smiled dumbly, if he remembered correctly, the chief designer's meeting with the Indian Prime Minister should have happened on December 21, 1988, because his father committed suicide by robbing a cigarette and throwing himself into the river today, that is, on December 21, 1988, the winter solstice.

My father had said this many times, and every time he said it, he would more or less add something like "This morning, the chief designer will meet with the Prime Minister of India, and I will ...... at noon."

Naturally, Ji Sheng felt very familiar when he heard the "news".

As soon as he wanted to observe his surroundings, a familiar and unfamiliar face appeared in front of him.

It looks very similar to his deceased grandfather!

If he had to say anything different, this man was much younger than his grandfather when he remembered it as a child, probably in his fifties.

At this moment, Ji Sheng saw that this little old man, who looked very similar to his grandfather, was looking at him in amazement, he couldn't help but look around, and suddenly the whole person was stunned!

It was a humble hut, with a yellowed dressing table in the back room and nothing on the table but a mirror.

Not far to the left of the dressing table, in the open wardrobe, were clean but patchy old clothes.

The remaining wooden bed was covered with inferior red paint, probably with a rusty application technique, and some of it had cracked or even peeled off.

Sunlight was projected onto Ji Sheng's face from the window glass that had broken a corner, and he looked incredulous, what was going on?

That's not right!

Looking at the red wall where the brick chips seem to be falling, the roof beams of the main body of the three large metasequoia trees, and then at the wooden bed that accompanied his childhood not far from the inner room, and the earthen stove in the corner.

Next to the earthen stove was a wooden cabinet made of metasequoia trees, on which was placed an old-fashioned silver and black radio, from which the news had obviously come from.

Ji Sheng's whole body was blindfolded.

"It seems to be an old house of grandparents......

After all, he often lived here when he was a child, Ji Sheng quickly recalled, and when he saw someone who looked a little like his grandfather staring at him with a stunned face, a thought suddenly flashed in his heart-

I'm not going to cross over or be reborn, am I?

Ji Sheng hasn't finished thinking about it yet.

A little old lady in her fifties came to the door again, and let out a scream.

"Catch the thief! Catch the thief! ”

Catch a thief?

What thief to catch?

Ji Sheng didn't react at first, until he saw the little old man who might be his grandfather rolling up his sleeves and revealing an unkind look, that he suddenly realized-

I'm being taken for a thief!

Still blocked at the door!

Ji Sheng had nowhere to escape if he wanted to, he secretly complained in his heart, if the two people blocking him in front of him were replaced by other people, he might not care about it and rush out directly.

But the two people in front of him, 99.99% of the probability are his grandparents, how can he recklessly collide, what if he hurts his grandparents later?

Ji Sheng is very filial, this kind of thing can't be done.

But if he doesn't escape, he is likely to be captured by his grandparents and sent to the police station.

Ji Sheng vaguely knew that his crossing here was related to his mobile phone, and if he was sent to the police station, everything on his body would be confiscated, and it would be difficult for him to return to modern society at that time.

Grandma is still shouting "catch the thief".

Grandpa has already rolled up his sleeves and is about to come up and beat someone.

The situation is critical!

At this critical moment, Ji Sheng ...... Didn't do anything!

He pretended to be confused and said, "Uncle and aunt, isn't Ji Aiguo at home?" ”

Ji Aiguo is his father's name.

Sure enough, the grandparents who were going to beat him and kill him at first were stunned after hearing the words "Ji Aiguo".

Grandpa frowned and said, "Do you know Aiguo?" ”

Ji Sheng must know everything about his own situation, he opened his eyes and said nonsense: "I am friends with Ji Aiguo, I haven't seen him for a long time, no, I met by chance a while ago, he said that I would be free to come and play with him, so I came over, aunt and uncle, isn't he at home?" ”

"Then why are you in the house?" Grandma was cautious and did not let her guard down.

When Grandpa heard this, he also said, "That's it, why did you run into our room?" ”

Ji Sheng blinked his eyes and said nonsense: "I just saw that the door was open and there was no one, so I wanted to come in to see if Ji Aiguo was there, but I didn't expect you to come back and treat me as a thief." ”

In the countryside, there is a habit of going to the neighbor's house with the door open or busy with the small vegetable field, and Ji Sheng does not feel that his lie will be exposed.

As he guessed, the grandparents had no doubts about it.

It's just that grandma still complained, "Then you can't just go into someone's house, what if you don't have anything?" ”

"Okay, since he came to find Aiguo, he can't be a thief, don't be foolish." Grandpa has a relatively cheerful temperament and doesn't care about such trivial things.

Ji Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, but in line with the concept of acting a full set, he still pretended to be curious: "What about Ji Aiguo?" ”

Grandma pointed to the south, "I'm going to sell cigarettes on the street, it's almost noon, I should be back for dinner, you come out and sit and wait." ”

How dare Ji Sheng really wait for his young father to come back, although he is very curious about what his father looks like now, and he also wants to know what age it is, but if his father really comes back, he will definitely show his stuff.

So, Ji Sheng lied while walking to the outhouse: "Then I'll go to the street to find him." ”

Grandpa said briskly: "Okay, you have to find him, let him come back quickly, today on the winter solstice, you have to burn the scriptures, let him come back and kowtow." ”

Today's winter solstice?

Think of the news just now.

A bad thought suddenly popped up in Ji Sheng's heart, could it really be 1988 now?

If this is the case, then his father will be snatched of a cigarette by a ruffian today, and he will commit suicide by throwing himself into the river in anger!

Thinking of this, Ji Sheng couldn't sit still anymore, and he hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll go find him." ”

With that, he was about to get out of here.

Unexpectedly, grandma suddenly drank, "Slow! ”

Ji Sheng's heart tightened, thinking that his grandparents had discovered the lie he said, so he turned his head and smiled: "Is there anything else?" ”

"You wait here, I'll go in and see if there's anything missing." Grandma was very careful, and after speaking, she was afraid that Ji Sheng would slip away, so she said to her grandfather: "Old Ji, you are staring!" ”

Grandpa was a little impatient, "Do you think he looks like a thief?" ”

"Knowing people, knowing faces, but not hearts, this is not accurate." Grandma said as she went into the back room to check it out.

Ji Sheng had to stand still at the door, he didn't steal anything, of course he wasn't afraid.

Unexpectedly, grandma's exclamation suddenly came from inside, "Ouch Lao Ji, the bag of stamps your son bought is gone!" This bag of stamps cost him a lot of money! Let's see if this kid stole it! ”

I'll go!

So unlucky?

Just missing something?

Ji Sheng was in the mood to scold his mother.

Fortunately, at this time, grandpa spoke, he looked at the back room speechlessly and said: "Didn't you put the stamps you bought in the morning into the drawer of the dressing table and lock them up, I can see that the drawer is good when I stand here, people haven't stolen anything, don't be surprised." ”

"Eh, I almost forgot, I locked it up." Grandma was quite embarrassed to come out, "Young man, I'm sorry, you go and love the country." ”

Ji Sheng was almost scared to death, if there was really something missing in the house, he would definitely not be able to get out of this door, unless he overturned his grandparents, but he couldn't do this kind of thing.

He was afraid that he would make any waves if he stayed any longer, so he hurriedly said, "Goodbye uncle and aunt." ”

After speaking, Ji Shengfei also fled.

……

Ji Sheng ran out one or two hundred meters away in one go, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief when he came to the small stone bridge next to the canal.

He carefully examined the familiar and unfamiliar environment, and there was a sense that something was wrong.

There is still a small stone bridge over the canal.

But in a dozen years, the small stone bridge will be demolished, and a reinforced concrete bridge will be rebuilt here.

"I miss this little stone bridge so much."

Ji Sheng was quite emotional, and then he smiled dumbly, "Fortunately, I lied to my grandparents just now, otherwise they would have made a fuss and sent me to the police station, and I wouldn't have been able to tell where I came from." ”

Could it be that you have traveled from the future?

Ji Sheng believed that if he really wanted to say this, he would be sent to a mental hospital or slice immediately.

And he really didn't understand how he got here.

"It must have something to do with that golden door software on the phone!"

Ji Sheng confirmed it as soon as possible.

He looked left and right for a moment to make sure there was no one nearby, and then reached into his pocket to see if the phone was still there.

It's about whether he can go back or not.

Whew, I'm glad it's still there.

Ji Sheng took out his mobile phone from his pocket and wanted to study how to go back.

Unlock.

The time is shown above at 17:05.

Seeing this time, Ji Sheng sighed, a little puzzled, it seemed to be this time when he answered his mother's voice before, and then he wasted a while of time just now, it stands to reason that it should be more than seventeen and ten o'clock, why is it still 17:05 on the phone?

In order to make sure that he was mistaken, he also stared at the meeting, and for about two minutes, the time on his mobile phone still did not change.

Broken phone?

Thinking of this, Ji Sheng was a little bit of a wax, after all, the mobile phone is related to whether he can return to modern society.

He hurriedly found the golden door application and clicked on it in a hurry.

This time it's a little different than before.

A line is written on the top row: 11:13:11 on December 21, 1988, and the time of the stopwatch is still changing.

The energy buffer gauge shows progress (0/102).

In 1988?

Is it really 1988!?

Ji Sheng suddenly remembered in his mind that his grandfather said that today was the "winter solstice", and the news content was determined to be 1988, and now the golden door showed that it was 1988, wasn't it just the day when his father said that he committed suicide by throwing himself into the river in his memory?

Not good!

Father in danger!

Ji Sheng didn't know if it would cause the butterfly effect because he crossed over, so that his father really committed suicide and died.

At this moment, he was so anxious that he couldn't even bother to study the system!

I must save my father!

You must save your father!

Ji Sheng only had one thought in his heart!
