Chapter 31: Inviting the political commissar father to visit a brothel Around New Year's Eve at the end of December in the fourth year of Chongzhen's reign, many rumors of ghost sightings suddenly appeared in the countryside of the counties in the Pearl River Delta around Guangzhou.
I don’t know how many peddlers, farmers and ordinary people all swore that they saw a group of unkempt monsters galloping on the country road, running faster than the best horses, disturbing the people along the way, and trampling on countless fields and vegetable beds. , and even broke up a church party held by two rural wealthy families.
As a result, in the next month, the business of eminent monks and wandering Taoist priests in the countryside outside Guangzhou was particularly booming, and there was an endless stream of customers with money.
All landlords and clans who are relatively wealthy invite them to go to their respective villages to perform rituals and perform rituals to ward off evil spirits.
In fact, all these strange things of demons dancing around are nothing more than a group of reckless and reckless super-dimensional city management, running around like headless flies.
Wang Qiu, Guo Jing, Ma Tong and Wang Meiling had not walked very far after rushing out of Xiangshan County with Liu Chaozuo in their arms, before they noticed a very troublesome problem: Although they seemed to be next to each other on the map, they In fact, there is a distance of about 100 kilometers between Xiangshan County, where Macau is located, and Guangzhou, the provincial capital.
In today's world where transportation is less developed, there are neither railways nor buses, not even taxis.
What's even worse is that because it's the Chinese New Year season, it's hard to even hire a ferry, but they have to walk slowly for three or four days.
Wang Qiu and the others don't mind it, but political commissar Guo, who is already anxious to find his son, But I really can’t wait any longer.
Of course, they can also use Doraemon's magical prop bamboo dragonfly to fly through the air, and it will probably only take up to half a day to reach Guangzhou.
But Comrade Liu Chaozuo, the magistrate of infinite space reincarnation, has never learned how to use Doraemon's bamboo dragonfly to fly into the sky, and Wang Qiu is also very worried about his mother Wang Meiling's flying skills. , what should I do if I fall and break my neck?
So, Wang Qiu took out another kind of Doraemon's magical prop tram game rope that looked very good and powerful.
As long as this rope was circled around a group of people, they could run at the same speed as a real tram. , with a speed of up to 180 kilometers per hour.
In theory, it can run from Xiangshan to Guangzhou in more than half an hour, just like the legendary magical Taibao.
But the result of actual practice is still a tragedy.
You know, there was no asphalt cement in the Ming Dynasty.
Except for a few main roads, many roads were almost made by pedestrians and animals.
Moreover, in the late Ming Dynasty, the road management was even more neglected.
Even the most important thoroughfares were cracked, ravaged, and dusty when it was sunny; when it rained, the ground was muddy and a piece of water was parked on such a deceptive road, let alone Driving at a speed of 180 kilometers per hour, even driving at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour is enough to be called a miracle.
The future people have not run very far, and they are already covered in dust, as if they were dug out of the grave.
Not to mention that there were usually no road signs on Ming Dynasty roads, and people who wanted to ask for directions might not be able to find them.
As for the modern maps, they are far different from those in the late Ming Dynasty.
Even the locations of rivers and towns are not correct.
After running in the wrong direction several times, everyone simply took a compass and ran in one direction, regardless of knocking over a bunch of pedestrians, sedans, and vehicles along the way, and disrupted temple fairs, markets, and wealthy people's parades in the countryside in several places. flow Water mats trampled many crop fields, collapsed several thatched houses and pavilions, and caused many horrifying supernatural stories.
But we still had to stop and go because even the tram could not cross the river, and there was water all the way from Macau to Guangzhou.
Network dense area To this end, they still had to go around and around, looking for a bridge that was nowhere to be found.
If that didn't work, they had to use bamboo dragonflies to hoist the flightless people across.
By the time the group finally reached the outskirts of Guangzhou on the afternoon of New Year's Eve, they were already tired, hungry, and as dirty as mud monkeys.
However, from here on, their feet were no longer the kind of muddy and potholed dirt road, but a rather wide, smooth, and well-managed road.
It did not belong to this era in any way, but more There are gravel sidewalks on both sides of the road that looks like a project built by traversers.
The bustling people on the road look more lively than many villages and towns.
In the middle of the road is a two-lane road.
Of course, there are no cars on the road, but there is an endless stream of handcarts and mule carts.
The livestock excrement is always cleaned by dedicated people on the side.
In one section, shell fragments were used to pave an arrow, and then white granite was used to pave the words "come" and "go", which is quite simple and eye-catching.
Although most of the pedestrians on the road were still wearing Ming Dynasty clothes, there were also a few guys with short hair and short clothes who resembled modern migrant workers.
Wang Qiu and others couldn't help but cheer up.
They realized that they might not be far from their target, so they I took off the tram rope and walked slowly forward.
As this "modern" road continues to extend along the Pearl River towards Guangzhou City, more and more houses and buildings stand on both sides of the road.
There is even a lively roadside market next to a pier. , selling fish, shrimp, eggs, vegetables and cheap groceries, as well as Cantonese pastries such as water chestnut cakes and glutinous rice mochi.
Some folk artists also performed various tricks, making the audience laugh.
There are many wooden lampposts in the market, which are painted with a layer of white lime to prevent insects.
They look very beautiful, but the smell is still very disgusting.
Although it was already New Year's Eve and many stalls had dispersed, there were still some vendors trying to do more business at the end of the year and continuing to bargain with the workers in blue cloth in various dialects.
Wang Qiu secretly took a look and found that the things they used to pay their bills included not only the silver and copper coins commonly used by people in the Ming Dynasty, but also a very modern paper currency: these were obviously traces left by modern time travellers.

Behind this market, where the Guangzhou City Wall can be vaguely seen, a huge construction site is clearly visible.
Although the unfinished building on the construction site does occupy a large area, it seems to be only two or three stories high.
In the modern world of China, it is no more than a large supermarket or a three-dimensional parking lot.
But in this time and space of the late Ming Dynasty, it was already a spectacle.
"Political Commissar Guo, according to the instructions of the tracing cane, your son Guo Yi should be at that construction site."
After walking around the construction site and testing it several times with the missing person cane, Wang Qiu came to the conclusion.
So, everyone found a secluded bush, took off their wigs, threw off the cumbersome Ming Dynasty clothes, put on modern clothes, and went straight to the gate of the construction site.
They followed the few people wearing rattan round hats who looked like Annan in the French Concession of the Republic of China.
The patrolling soldiers negotiated with each other , finally called out Comrade Guo Yi, who seemed to be pampered in time and space in the late Ming Dynasty, and was already a little bit potbellied.
What followed in this "meeting of father and son across time and space" was messy, embarrassing, and mysterious.
No need to mention it.
Just looking at Guo Yi who was "in distress and waiting to be rescued", he was clearly well-dressed and surrounded by people, while his own rescue team looked tired and haggard, which made Wang Qiu...
I felt unspeakably awkward.
Next, when the lanterns first came on, a group of people sat in the Ziming Building, the famous "Australian gold selling den" in Guangzhou, and looked around at the "slaughtered women" who were painted with makeup and smiles on their faces.
Political Commissar Guo, an old party member who was always upright and self-sufficient, was so angry that he could hardly speak.
And Ms.
Wang Meiling couldn't help but shook her head and sighed: "Xiao Guo, how sad would your mother be if she knew that your kid actually became a nightclub owner, and that he was still a homosexual?
And no matter what you say, you won't."
You should take your father to visit the brothel."
"Dad, and Sister Wang, these are all required by work."
Guo Yi said with a helpless smile, "Today is New Year's Eve.
Zizhenzhai and the business have closed early and let people go home for the New Year.
I want to give The only place where everyone can prepare a decent reception feast is here." oshow7:
