Chapter 8 Into the City

Liu Hai stayed on the hill for a while, and finally waited until the space-time ring could be restarted. Then he restarted the space-time ring and returned to himself through the light door, in a modern rental house.

As soon as Liu Hai came back, he sat down on the sofa and never wanted to get up again. The past 24 hours had made him suffer from old age.

Even though Liu Hai was originally a food delivery guy, it seemed like he had been working hard in the wind and rain most of the day. Compared to the suffering he suffered yesterday, these things pale into insignificance.

Liu Hai sat on the sofa and relaxed for a while, then stood up again and prepared to go out. He had a lot of things to do today.

Before Liu Hai went out, he arranged several biochemical people in the house and told them that no matter who knocked on the door, they were not allowed to open the door until he came back.

After receiving affirmative answers from these biochemical people, Liu Hai left the rental house with confidence.

Liu Hai's first stop was the Art Institute in City T. It wasn't that Liu Hai had any idea, but there were many shops selling film and television clothing in front of the Art Institute. Liu Hai planned to buy some Qing Dynasty clothes and clothing from these shops.

Fake braids.

Liu Hai rode his little electric donkey to the entrance of the Art Institute. On both sides of the gate of the Art Institute, there were more than a dozen shops specializing in art clothing.

Liu Hai was not picky, so he randomly found a restaurant, parked the eDonkey at the door and went in.

As soon as I entered the store, a waiter came up to greet me warmly, "Sir, what can I do for you?"

To be honest, Liu Hai was really not used to such enthusiasm. In order to buy early and finish early, Liu Hai immediately asked: "Do you have any clothes from the Qing Dynasty and fake braids?"

After hearing this, the waiter replied with a smile on his face: "Sir, we have a complete range of Qing Dynasty costumes. We have more than ten styles of the clothes you want."

After the waiter finished speaking, he led Liu Hai to a corner of the store, and then pulled the curtain on the window.

When Liu Hai looked at it, behind the curtain, there were hundreds of sets of various Qing Dynasty costumes, some of them silk, some of coarse cloth, and they looked quite new.

Liu Hai was not picky and chose silk clothes for himself. As for the cyborgs on No. 1, as the master's servants, they naturally wore coarse clothes.

After choosing the bangs, the waiter took out a dozen boxes from under the counter, each box containing a fake braid.

Regarding these braids, Liu Hai took a closer look and felt that they were no different from real braids. If they were worn on the head, no one would notice them.

After finishing the selection, Liu Hai asked about the price. These clothes and braids cost three to four thousand yuan, which made Liu Hai very distressed.

But for the sake of his ambitious career, Liu Hai could only grit his teeth and pay the money.

Finally, Liu Hai was sent out by the waiter and returned to his rental house angrily.

After Liu Hai returned to the house, he didn't want to stay in modern times for a moment. He wanted to leave this sad place that had squeezed all his money.

But now that the time and space gate is charging, Liu Hai has nothing to do even if he is anxious. He can only suppress his irritable mood and rest at home for another day.

When I woke up the next morning, Liu Hai first asked if the space-time gate was fully charged.

After receiving a positive reply from Zhinao Xiaobai, Liu Hai immediately ordered the biochemical people No. 1 to change their clothes again and put on the stab-proof clothing under their robes and mandarins, and then looked at the bald heads of these people.

, it seems that there is no need to give them haircuts, just give them some fake braids and stick them on the back of their heads.

After dressing up several cyborgs, Liu Hai followed suit and dressed himself up again. Then he walked to the dressing mirror, looked around, and nodded with satisfaction. In the mirror, he looked like a rich man.

After all the preparations for bangs were completed, the coquettish boy ordered Zhinao Xiaobai: "Open the space-time gate immediately. I am going to conquer the stars and the sea."

"Dear Master, please wait a moment, the empty door will open soon."

Then the space-time gate composed of light appeared in front of Liu Hai again. This time Liu Hai had no doubts and directly led several biochemical people through the light gate.

When we came back to the opposite side of Guangmen, the sun was already three poles high in the time and space of the Qing Dynasty.

Liu Hai braved the bright sun and led his men down the hill, slowly approaching the small mountain village.

As soon as Liu Hai arrived in front of the small mountain village, he saw several white-haired old men chatting with each other in the square in front of the mountain village.

Liu Hai hurriedly took a few steps forward and came to these elderly people. He cupped his fists and cupped his hands and said, "Old people, Xiaosheng is polite here."

The old people who were chatting saw Liu Hai coming over to salute. They looked at the silk clothes he was wearing and his fair and tender skin. At first glance, he was not a farmer. There were also several burly men following behind him. They knew that a noble person was here, so they started to look at him one by one.

Not daring to neglect, they all stood up and returned the favor to Liu Hai.

Seeing that the old man returned the gift, Liu Hai hurriedly gave the money, bowed again and said: "Several old people, I and a few servants passed by here and lost our way, and the animals we rode have also disappeared. I want to ask some old people.

What kind of place is this?"

After listening to Liu Hai's question, one of the old men came out who was wearing a decent dress and said, "Sir, our place is under the jurisdiction of Jiangning Prefecture, Wangjia Village, Gaochun County."

After hearing this, Liu Hai was shocked. He was in T city in the north, but he actually traveled to Nanjing in the south.

But now that we have come, we will make peace with it, so Liu Hai continued to ask: "Old man, we have been wandering in the mountains for a long time, and we no longer know the year or what time it is now."

The old man glanced at Liu Hai with some confusion and asked, "Is this kid from a rich family stupid? Does he really not know the current age?"

Although the old man thought so, he still said: "To tell you this, it is the eighth day of the sixth lunar month in the 12th year of Guangxu's reign."

Liu Hai was a little confused after hearing this. He knew that the 12th year of Guangxu's reign was probably around 1880, but he didn't know exactly which year it was.

"May I ask this old man, how far is it from Nanjing City?"

"Going back to the young master, I have never traveled far. I only know that our Wangjia Village is about 10 miles away from Gaochun County. If the young master wants to ask for directions, it is better to go to the county seat."

Liu Hai nodded. In ancient times, people were restricted from moving around. It was normal for this old man to have never left the main line.

Liu Hai told these elderly people the way to the county town, and then said goodbye to them.

Liu Hai followed the road pointed by several elderly people and arrived at Gaochun County. He did not enter the county immediately, but stood not far from the city gate and watched carefully.

I saw that in the evening, the gate of the city became more and more lively, people doing business in the city began to leave the city to go home, and people traveling outside the city hurried into the city to find inns.

Standing at the gate of the city were a few soldiers in tattered clothes. What era was this? They still had red tassel guns in their hands. It seemed that the foundation of the Qing Dynasty was almost in ruins.

Liu Hai stood there and noticed that all the merchants who entered the city gate had to take out something like a piece of paper and let the disheveled soldiers at the city gate inspect it.

Liu Hai immediately realized that those pieces of paper were the guides. In the Qing Dynasty, it would be difficult for you to move without recording. I'm afraid you wouldn't even be able to leave the county.

Liu Hai was now thinking about how he should enter the city. He also said that he had only seen the road guide on the Internet and had never seen it in person. Now he was going to be blocked outside the city gate by this small piece of paper.

?

Finally, Liu Hai's eyes turned and he had an idea. These soldiers were afraid of the enemy. They pretended to be arrogant and took their servants with them. When they broke in like this, the few officers and soldiers did not dare to stop them.

It was this idea that Liu Haixiang thought about without hesitation. He immediately took a few cyborgs and headed straight to the city gate in a swaggering manner.

Sure enough, I don't know if Liu Hai was pretending to be like him or something, but when the soldiers saw Liu Hai, not only did they not stop him, but they looked at Liu Hai with apologetic smiles and entered the city gate.

Liu Hai entered the city gate, and his pounding heart finally calmed down. At the same time, he was also a little lucky. These ancient soldiers were just like fools. How could they let a stranger like himself sneak in with such arrogance?

No wonder the security in ancient times was so poor.

Thinking of this, Liu Hai was not only proud of his wit, so he took a few cyborgs and walked along the main street of the county town.

When he reached the busiest part of the street, suddenly a young man in short clothes walked out of a drug store nearby.

The young man walked out of the drugstore in a hurry, and suddenly saw Liu Hai coming from the street. He was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly stepped forward to the side of Liu Hai and gave him a thousand gifts.

"My dear, please give my regards to Mr. Liu."

This little guy suddenly ran out and was so angry that Liu Hai was frightened.

Liu Hai thought to himself, I don't know anyone here. Besides, I came from time-travel, so you can't know me. What's going on with this little guy?

Liu Hai was just stunned when the young man spoke again, "Sir, I brought back the medicine I bought for you. I think your health is almost healed. Do you still want to use this medicine?"

After hearing what this young man said, Liu Hai's heart changed and he seemed to understand what was going on.

It seems that there is a person in this county who looks very similar to me. It seems that the young man in front of me has mistakenly recognized the person.

Now I think back to when I just entered the county town, those soldiers not only ignored me, but also showed flattering expressions. It seems that these soldiers were not negligent in taking precautions. The man who died in Jianzhong looked too much like me.

.

Liu Hai's mind was spinning rapidly. What should he do next? Should he just go with the flow? Or deny it face to face?
