"Sure enough, it's the natural world again!"
"Shenzhou Continent, what the hell is this, it's another year's task of survival!"
Before Anyang had time to figure it out, he suddenly felt dizzy, the whole figure seemed to fall to the ground, but he lost consciousness at this moment.
Well, this feeling seems to have been experienced before.
...
White walls and blue tiles, low-rise private houses, this is a classical city, the tallest building is only three stories or ten meters, and a breeze can blow from the south of the city to the north of the city.
A bit of the style in the world of painted skin, but much more gentle and delicate.
On the streets paved with bluestones, people come and go, all dressed in ancient costumes, bustling, with the sound of selling vegetables and bargaining. Fortunately, there is no whistle. Although it sounds noisy, it is not harsh. Occasionally roadside buns When the steamed buns are freshly baked, the aroma wafts away with the steaming hot steam, and you have to swallow hard whether you eat or not in the morning.
"Who said that ancient things are not delicious, they are so fragrant without spices, and they are worth it?"
A huge elm tree blocked the sun near noon, and a young man in a scholar's costume sat under the tree, and the emotion just came from his mouth.
Next to it is a historical arch bridge called Minxin Bridge, which is a bridge built by donating money for the common people. Under the bridge is a blue river called Qingyue Canal. The Qingyue Canal passes through the city from east to west. The people of the city not only provide water for washing and cooking, but also discharge domestic sewage into this river, but it cannot affect its clarity at all. Now the willows and willows beside the river are inextricably linked, and they have become a scene in the city. When the lantern festival is held, the lanterns hanging beside the tree are even more unique, attracting countless wealthy daughters and Yingying Yanyan to come to enjoy the lantern festival and guess lantern riddles.
However, this does not relieve Anyang's boredom at all!
He has been in this world for three days, and he does nothing but eat and sleep every day, and has no plot tasks, not even entertainment activities, no computers, no music, no singing and dancing halls, and no friends. And apart from drinking tea, playing chess, or arrogantly walking and reciting poetry by the Qingyue River, people in this world seem to have nothing to do. Going to the brothel is fun and elegant, listening to small songs, playing the piano, etc. , but the problem is boring to indulge in it all day long. Fighting crickets and yoyos will be considered to be playful games. Occasionally listening to operas is fine, listening to them every day will make you tired, and gambling is even more impossible...
The system told him to stay here for a year. Although he knew it couldn't be that simple, he had no clue. Even if he ran all over the city, he couldn't find anything unusual. He only knew that this place was called Bingzhou, which belonged to the more prosperous Yue Kingdom. As for the city of Yue, it is roughly equivalent to the Song Dynasty in ancient China, and Bingzhou is the city of the Jiangnan generation, such as Suzhou, Qinhuai and so on.
Just like in ancient China, the common people in this world are full of rumors about ghosts and ghosts, myths and legends are numerous, and the law and order in Bingzhou is not very good. , often shirk on the ghosts, but Anyang walked all over the city of Bingzhou in the dark, and the infrared scanning of the armor did not find any ghosts and ghosts.
He knew that the world was bound to be extraordinary, but it still had to wait.
It's impossible for the system to let itself take a vacation!
A wealthy lady supported by a maid came from the stone arch bridge. Her eyes kept looking at the Qingyue River, as if she was admiring the scenery. The pace left, and she walked up the river, occasionally turning over the red cloth strip hanging from the tree with her cuff on her sleeves to read the verses written on it, and reciting them softly, with a look of admiration in her eyes.
The cloth strips hanging on the branches were left by some scholars, with their own names and proud poems on them. The purpose was obvious. It was only to attract women. It resonated and opened her heart, that is the beauty of both people and wealth, which is enough to be passed down in the literati circle as a good story!
Although this method sounds stupid, but according to Anyang's knowledge, the success rate is not low. In this era, both men and women are still literary, and the literati status is very high, but there are differences between men and women, and most of the poems come from the mouths of men. , Many women are only in the stage of literacy, but they worship the talents who can become quatrains through the ages, and if they know a little poetry, they can really pick up their husbands and husbands with writing.
Anyway, if you don't pick it yourself, when you get older, it won't be much better for your family to pick it for yourself!
A daughter who marries a talented woman has a bright future, and a talented man marries a beautiful man with a long face. It is the best of both worlds.
It can be seen that this woman is indeed a daughter of gold. The literacy rate in this era is not high, not to mention the ability to understand poetry.
Of course, it may also be arty and pretend to understand!
The noon sun shone down through the luxuriant branches and leaves of the big elm tree, hitting the ground to form tiny golden spots, which made it even more elegant when it fell on the pale blue scholar's robe.
Anyang stretched and stood up, patted the leaves and dust on his clothes, and prepared to go home.
Well, at home.
This time is a bit similar to the mission of "Rush Out of the Amazon". Instead of coming directly to this world, the system arranged an identity for him, just like the second lieutenant of the special forces in "Rush Out of the Amazon", but this time the system gave him an identity. The identity he arranged was very ordinary, an orphan who was adopted since he was a child, a scholar who had nothing to do all day and couldn't get a job title, and when he was so old, he had to rely on his elderly adoptive father to provide food, clothing and clothing to a poor scholar.
Looking at it this way, the system really meant to let him come on vacation.
But this also means that if he accepts the identity given by the system, he must call another person Dad.
Although "his adoptive father" is very old, and he is kind and honest by nature, if it is as the memory of the system gave him, "the adoptive father" saves money for him to study and hopes that he can make a difference, then call him father. It's nothing, but unfortunately he knows that this identity is fake. Even all traces of his life in Bingzhou City are imposed by the system. Although this method of directly modifying other people's memories is incredible, since the system can create a world. , then it is not surprising to do this in the natural world.
That's a bit out of place.
His "adopted father" is called An Laosi. He used to be a very wealthy businessman. He opened a small and medium-sized dyeing workshop. Later, he offended the official and was seized by the official officer, and even the money was robbed. As a last resort, I had to live out and rely on the dock to carry goods for a living. Now that I am old and unable to work, I opened a tea shop on the roadside with my savings, earning some money for rice and vegetables every day, and often encounter people who don’t give it to me. money.
And his name has been forgotten, everyone who knew him called him An Lao Si, and the old man acquiesced. Now that he has been poor all his life, he will not recall the rich life at the time, nor try to resist, he just silently Accept what life has to offer, so life is hard but not painful.
It was not until the arrival of Anyang three days ago that a piece of silver was thrown out, and the family conditions improved a little.
The old man is very satisfied after having eaten rough tea and light rice, and fried vegetables that you can't even see in oil stars. This is also thanks to his "adopted son" who "sold a poem and earned some money" a few days ago. Pickles, which he usually eats, Occasionally saving some money from selling tea, he used it to buy pen and ink for his "adopted son", and the money from selling poetry had to be saved for future studies.
Anyang continued to lie down under the elm tree, holding a book in his hands, but the warm sunlight made him want to squint subconsciously.
In the afternoon, there were quite a few pedestrians on the street. There were only those who went on outings, those who admired the scenery, and those who flew kites by the riverside. In general, the customs of this era and ancient China are still a bit strange. For example, young men and women walk They will not be criticized when they are together, at most they are a couple by default.
At this time, there was an old man in tattered clothes, surrounded by a group of teenage children, who seemed to be listening to his story, and somehow it reached Anyang's ears.
"Later, the officials couldn't help them. Senior Brother Yunqing and Junior Sister Yunzi wandered the world and became a pair of heroes who fought for justice, robbed the rich and helped the poor."
"Haha that's great, when I grow up, I will rob the rich to help the poor, and I will also act as a chivalrous man!"
Anyang was very bored. This kind of martial arts story that can be told in ten minutes at most is really meaningless, let alone hearing only one ending.
Then a group of children shouted again.
"Sir, talk more, talk again, old man!"
"This... I'm afraid it won't work. I haven't eaten at noon today, and I can't talk when I'm hungry."
"Wait, old man. My family baked a pan of pancakes at noon today, and I haven't finished eating them yet. I'll go and bring you two."
Anyang was speechless again.
Soon-
"Well, this cake is really fragrant. I haven't eaten something so fragrant in a long time. What do you want to hear?"
"We... we want to hear the story of Xiao Xiao, the one you said the other day!" said a young boy with a strong appearance.
"I want to hear the story of Senior Brother Yunqing and Junior Sister Yunzi again, sir, please, tell me again." A little girl with two braids begged.
"I want to hear the fairy's story," said the little boy who brought the cake just now.
The old man immediately made a decision: "Okay, I'll tell you a fairy story, but after listening to it, you can't learn the fairy in the story, you know?"
A group of children responded in unison, knowing, and the old man began to speak slowly. From this opening, he knew that he was not an ordinary old man, at least he had read books, knew words, and had culture.
