Handbook of real people's modern practice life

"I heard that your little grandson went to the National Teacher's Mansion to enjoy his blessings. Is it true?" An old man asked the old man in front.

"It's just to do some chores inside, to help run errands or something." The old man said this, seemingly nothing special, but his face was full of pride, and the other people in the queue showed envious expressions when they heard it. , that is not a place where ordinary people can go.

"It's hard to get into the National Teacher's Mansion. My grandson wanted to go, but he wasn't selected."

"My son did the same. He went there a few times, but he didn't go in."

Su Chengze and Chen Jun were all around. After hearing this, they looked at each other tacitly, and then continued to listen to them.

"What is this?" Some people were not convinced by the smug look on the man's face.

"My sister-in-law's uncle joined the guard of the National Teacher's Mansion, and it didn't matter?"

As soon as he said this, everyone was in an uproar, even the old man who was proud just now, but he was more cautious and asked one more question.

"You didn't lie to us, did you? It's difficult for the guards to enter."

His grandson originally applied for the job with the idea of ​​joining the guard, but in the end he just went to the mansion to do odd jobs.

"Hmph, I don't have the leisure to make up stories here."

"This is good, the treatment of the guards is very good."

"That's right. I heard that after entering, the monthly salary will be three gold coins, and clothes and food for the whole year will be covered, and you can be reimbursed if you are sick." I heard someone say this enviously, and the others waited in line. People who entered the venue said one after another: "Wow! There are so many! I can only save one gold coin a year."

"You're not bad. I can only save a few dozen silver coins after excluding expenses. In a few years, my son will be getting married. I'm very worried. I don't know how to make up the dowry." The middle-aged man sighed sadly.

""Yes, yes, there is no need to talk about the treatment, but they are also capable. My sister-in-law's uncle is born with supernatural powers, and his archery skills are also perfect. Before joining the guard team, he lived well at home by hunting. smelly. "

Under the envious words of the crowd, their team slowly entered the city, and after paying two copper coins as the entrance fee, they entered the city.

Su Chengze and Chen Jun paid extra attention to the attire of the soldiers defending the city, it was really antique and authentic, but! ! !

If there is nothing wrong with their eyes, then the gatekeeper seems to be holding a pager?And it's still the old-fashioned old-fashioned pager that was basically replaced?

Chen Jun rubbed his eyes in disbelief and looked again. He was sure that he hadn't been fooled, so he entered the city with a strange face. Speaking of which, the scene was really strange. He was dressed in a long robe, wearing armor, and held a gun in his hand. , a standard ancient dress, but there is a modern pager tied around his waist! ! !

And to their surprise, they can understand most of the words when they come to the city, that is to say, they speak Mandarin, and some accents are a bit strange, but if you listen carefully, you won't be unable to understand them.

The two of them didn't know where to go into the city, so they just followed the crowd, but Su Chengze and Chen Jun didn't walk together. If someone broke something, they wouldn't be caught in the same boat. The distance between the two was more than ten meters away. do not know.

After sneaking into the city, the two discovered that this area is a residential area, with small courtyards of single-family houses on both sides.

As for the clothes... Su Chengze has studied history, and he recognized that most of these clothes have the style of Tang Dynasty.

When he walked for a while, it wasn't just the style of the Tang Dynasty, because they actually saw the very modern trousers and long T!The label on the back of that man's clothes is still in English!

Chen Jun pinched himself in disbelief, it hurt, it was not a dream.

After seeing a lot, they also noticed that the clothes of the elderly, middle-aged and old people are almost all antique, but when it comes to young people and children, some will wear modern clothes, and some clothes are not modern, but There will be a watch on the hand, and some even hold a mobile phone, yes, a mobile phone! ! !

It happened that a few children were rushing past them. "My cell phone! It was given to me by my father! Give it back to me, it's mine!" The little girl running at the back cried pitifully, but the boys in front ignored her at all. She yelled happily: "Let's go play games, let's go play games~"

Su Chengze and Chen Jun: "..."

This situation...is very weird.

Most of the people who came to the city either picked things to sell in the city, or they came to the city to buy things specially, so most of the destinations were in the market area here, and the other few came to see others , visiting relatives and friends.

Su Chengze and Chen Jun had nothing to sell now, but there were so many people in the market that it was most convenient for them to find out the news, so they blended into the market, holding those copper coins in their hands, pretending to buy in front of the stalls In fact, he pricked up his ears to listen to the person next to him.

After a period of time, they gathered in a remote alley to exchange information that they could see clearly.

This city is called Wangcheng, and this country is called Loulan. In addition, this country and this city are not the only ones. There are two other countries, one is called Na'an, and the other is called Anxi. Jiatian, there are kings in the three countries. In addition to the king, there is an equally important existence, which is the national teacher they heard at the beginning.

When they heard it for the first time, Su Chengze and Chen Jun were silent again. There is a lost ancient country in the desert named Loulan.

The king is hereditary, but the national teacher's office is held by those who are able, and the person with the most outstanding ability is the national teacher.

And judging from their limited information, the status of the National Teacher's Mansion seems to be higher than that of the king.

There is also something that they can't understand. This place really has modern products, and there are a lot of them. They even saw all kinds of watches and mobile phone recorders neatly placed in a shop. Modern electronics!

It's just that this mobile phone cannot be connected to the Internet here, so it is only used for basic functions such as taking pictures, playing games, and recording videos, and the price of this mobile phone is quite expensive.

They have seen a person give three gold coins in exchange for a mobile phone with a distressed face.

According to their judgment, three gold coins is already a lot of money, because this amount of monthly salary is enough to envy the people at the city gate, and some people can only save a few dozen silver coins. .

From this point of view, there must be some connection between this place and the outside world. Otherwise, they would not have cellphones. Even if they have cellphones, since the brand is well-known outside, there is absolutely no need to run away.

Moreover, I heard some old people talk about ancient times, and it didn't take long for this change to happen. It only appeared slowly in the past few decades, and most of these modern items appeared as luxury high-end products.

Also, they seem to have lived here for a long, long time.

"Now is the time, you go back and tell them, tell them the truth, I will continue to look here."

"Okay." So the two of them split up. Before leaving the city, Su Chengze specially bought about 20 big buns for lunch at the bun shop.

He originally wanted to buy some suitable clothes for them, but the clothes were relatively expensive. After buying the buns, there were only a few copper coins left, which were not enough to buy a set of clothes.

The few people in the mountain still had some dry food with them, but they were not in the mood to eat it. They kept looking down with binoculars, hoping to find more evidence to prove that they did not cross, so when Su Chengze appeared When he was walking, he also saw such a scene - all of them were looking down the mountain with binoculars, and their vigilance was greatly lowered. When he approached, No. 2 was the first to notice the appearance of others, and looked at him vigilantly. come over.

"it's me."

"You're back, how are you?"

"It's about time, aren't you hungry? I bought steamed stuffed buns, why don't we talk while eating, while it's still hot."

"How can you be in the mood to eat now? Tell me, where is this place? What's going on here?"

"According to them, this is Gujiatian, a secret garden of a god. The area we are in now is the territory of Loulan Kingdom."

"Loulan!?"

"Yes."

"Is it the Loulan I was thinking of?!!"

"I don't know, but some of the races in it are indeed quite similar to those in the desert, and some are blond and blue-eyed."

They also discovered this, and Hu Ruilin asked: "We saw it too, did we not travel through time? I saw someone wearing a watch."

"Chen Jun and I also found this in the city, and in the city, there are not only watches, but also mobile phones, and people wearing T-shirts and shirts walking on the street, so Chen Jun and I deduce that this may be a similar The place in Taohuayuan, but the difference between here and the book is that they know where they can lead to the outside world, and they have contacts, and those mobile phones and watches are the evidence of contacts between the two places."

Hearing this, everyone's faces looked much better.

Then Hu Ruilin asked again: "Does Loulan have a king? Or is it a feudal society?"

"Yes, there are not only the king, but also the corresponding ministers. In addition, there is the national teacher who is equal to or even higher than the king. Many people respect the national teacher."

The guide asked: "Is Loulan the only country here?"

"No, there are two other ones, one is Na'an State and the other is Anxi State. They also have national teachers. I don't know about the others. Chen Jun is still there to inquire about the news. I will come back first to give you a reassurance—we Don’t worry if you haven’t crossed over.”

"It's really great. I don't want to travel to ancient times. I live a good life in modern times and I am very satisfied with my life."

"That's right, what's so good about traveling back to ancient times? Lack of medical care, food and clothing, and making a living are all problems..."

After finishing speaking, there was time to comfort the growling stomach. By this time, the buns were already cold, but the weather was not cold, so eating cold buns was also delicious.
