Chapter 39, New Year in Vladivostok On the first day of the first lunar month of the fifth year of Chongzhen's reign, an earth-shaking loud noise suddenly came from the waters of the Pearl River Estuary in Guangdong.
According to the few fishermen and sailors who witnessed it in the distance at that time, along with the appalling loud noise, something spurted flames and thick smoke into the sky.
Therefore, there were some good people in the local area, and soon after Driving a boat to search the waters where the incident occurred.
Unfortunately, despite wandering for a long time, I still found nothing.
Therefore, as time went by, this "unsolved mystery of the world" was soon gradually forgotten by the local people, and was regarded as one of the numerous anecdotes and absurd rumors in the troubled times of the late Ming Dynasty, such as the explosion of Wang Gong Factory Like Xu Hongru’s White Lotus Demonic Technique At the same time, Vladivostok, located on the other side of the land of China, is now a chilling scene in the snow-capped and frozen Northland.
In the spring of 1632 AD, on the morning of the first day of the fifth year of Chongzhen's reign, Vladivostok was still immersed in the lazy atmosphere of the festival.
Although it was already three o'clock in the morning, the streets of Vladivostok, covered with thick snow, were still quiet.
Whether they are time travelers from the future or employees recruited by the Far East Company in this time and space, most of them either drank too much corn soju at last night's New Year's Eve banquet, or they got into the mood and played too crazy with their mother-in-law, and they are still warm at this time.
In the house, the naked woman was sleeping soundly with her arms around her.
Although the temperature outside was minus twenty degrees Celsius, the fire pit was still very warm, allowing everyone here to sleep soundly.
There were few people on the street and it was quiet.
In a small red-brick house in the traveler settlement by the Golden Horn Bay, former agent Zhou Billy opened his eyes in a daze, subconsciously touched his side, and found that it was actually the empty one assigned to him.
The Japanese girl Kazuko had already gotten up from the kang.
In the past two months or so, he was ordered to go on a business trip to the newly occupied Jeju Island in North Korea, where he interacted with the Koreans on the island and the migrated Liao people.
He did not return with the immigration ship until the day before yesterday.
Maybe he was holding back a lot.
So, under the stimulation of alcohol and nostalgia, they played wildly last night.
Even now, he still feels a slight pain in his lower back.
However, the Japanese girl who looks only fourteen or fifteen years old has already gotten up to do housework.
It can be seen from this that the hard-working spirit of these "Yamato Nadeshiko" in ancient Japan is really the same as those "Xinxin" people in Shibuya, Tokyo in the 21st century who wear smoky makeup and skip school all day long, drink and smoke and even take drugs.
Human girls are incomparable Alas, is it true that "there are only exhausted oxen and no damaged fields"?
Or is it that as I grow older, my physical strength has begun to deteriorate?
Zhou Bili, who used to have a very rotten private life in the original time and space, laughed to himself, then quickly got up and put on his clothes, jumped off the warm fire bed, and while breathing in the cold air, walked out of the bedroom, went to the outhouse, and found that the pine wood floor had been mopped It was polished, and the cobwebs and stains accumulated on the walls were completely removed, as well as the tables, coffee tables, cabinets and decorative shelves, all of which were polished to reflect light.
Although simple and simple, everything is so clean, tidy, comfortable and bright, making people feel extremely comfortable.
Two pairs of bowls and chopsticks have been placed on the table in the restaurant, as well as a large steaming soup pot with a strong aroma of mutton dumplings, and several plates of simple and exquisite home-cooked cold dishes.
There is a rumor going on in the kitchen next to it.
There was the sound of clinking pots and pans, and a greeting in Japanese with a Kansai accent: "Ana, are you up?
Breakfast is already on the table.
If you're hungry, just eat first.
I'll fry two more salted fish." " In an instant, a wonderful atmosphere full of warmth suddenly came to the heart of Zhou Billy, the former agent stationed in Japan.
Is this what home feels like?
It feels so good to be cared about.
Looking around, I saw brick walls painted with white lime, floors made of pine wood, simple glass windows, half-old blue cotton door curtains, light bulbs hanging directly from the beams, dried fish and bacon hanging under the eaves, etc.
Bicycles at the door, heating coal piled in the stone fence Everything looked like a small farmhouse in the northeastern countryside in the early 1990s.
For a moment, Zhou Bili, who was accustomed to the hustle and bustle of big cities and had been immersed in the feasting, entertainment, and extravagance for many years, felt a little like a dream.
However, this is not the beautiful imagination of a tired prodigal about the pastoral life after the usual drunken life and death, but an iron-clad fact.
Unknowingly, the People's Liberation Army officers and soldiers who were far away from him and the submarine inexplicably traveled to Vladivostok in the late Ming Dynasty.
Then, they were forcibly collected by the Far East Company in desperation.
From then on, they followed this group of ambitious time-travelers and made a living.
It's been nearly a year Billy Zhou, a former agent who had been lurking in modern Japan for many years, sighed melancholy, unable to explain what was going on in his heart.
Looking from the table in the restaurant, a Japanese girl as petite as a doll is busy at the stove.
She holds a long-handled spoon in her hand.
Her long black hair is randomly tied into a bunch for the convenience of cooking.
Hang down from the back of the head.
Because it is winter with more than 20 degrees below zero, it is very cold even indoors, so Kazuko is wearing a thick kimono under her apron, which makes her look a bit bloated, and the charm of the "naked apron" in the legend of Japanese wives cannot be seen But while it was a little less lusty, it was a little more warm as a housewife, which made Zhou Bili, a promiscuous man, have mixed feelings.

Generally speaking, Japanese girls in the early Edo period of the 17th century are incomparable with Japanese girls in the 21st century in terms of appearance and body shape: because they have not experienced the post-World War II "a glass of milk strengthens a nation" The nutritional supplement program may also be attributed to the diligent sowing of "optimized genes" by American soldiers.
In this era, Japanese people were generally malnourished and had extremely poor development.
Even the average height of men is only 155 centimeters.
The vast majority of Japanese women are considered to be a little over 1.4 meters tall, and they are generally flat enough to be able to skate.
Besides, most of the Japanese girls acquired by the Vladivostok Far East Company through human traffickers or sneak attacks and robberies were from poor farmers.
Although the girls provided to travelers are already selected "high-quality products", at best they are just good-looking and pleasing to the eye.
Even in Japan of this era, I am afraid that she is not a beautiful woman, at least not comparable to the top beauties in Yoshiwara Flower Street in Edo Castle.
Although they have such shortcomings, these Japanese girls from ordinary farm families also have a unique atmosphere of simplicity and nature.
Coupled with carefully decorated Japanese traditional hairstyle, exquisite and gorgeous modern hair accessories, put on a kimono with elegant colors, put on snow-white cloth socks, then lowered his head, stepped on clogs, took small steps, and faced the man Their scorching gazes, their faces all flushed, their shyness and freshness, full of elegance and elegance that return to nature, and a different kind of charm that is almost impossible to find in modern society.
Moreover, thanks to the global custom of early marriage in this era, these Japanese girls are not very old, generally only thirteen or fourteen years old, and even those over fifteen years old are considered older girls.
For example, the girl named Kazuko who is assigned to Zhou Bili has just turned fourteen.
She has a young face that is only a junior high school student and looks more like an elementary school student.
It is full of frightened and helpless expressions.
It makes Zhou Bili, a modern bachelor, feel so cute.
To push such a young girl in modern society is definitely a crazy lolita accuser.
But in this time and space, it is a normal thing.
Loli is beautiful and holy.
It should be praised in a language as beautiful as Shakespeare's sonnets.
A good loli can wash people away.
The soul can purify people of their sins and light up their dreams.
In short, it is great to be able to legally knock down a lolita.
Therefore, after the initial disappointment, Zhou Bili became more and more satisfied with his loli girl.
What should I be afraid of if she is short?
She is called petite.
What's there to be afraid of if it's not beautiful?
That's called pure natural ecology.
Besides, even for girls in modern society, after taking off their makeup, there are still a few people who can look good.
Even if they finally meet someone with stunning appearance, it is often done through cosmetic surgery: as soon as they think that the other person’s nose is fake, Yes, the chin is fake, it’s fake, it’s even fake.
How disillusioning that is.
What's more, in modern Japanese society where feminism and ideas are prevalent and people laugh at poverty but not at prostitution, the elegant and virtuous traditional "Yamato Nadeshiko" has basically disappeared.
It is not easy for ordinary men to pick up a girl they want.
During the love process Not to mention the huge expense of buying all kinds of gifts, eating and playing with each other.
Even if we encounter some inexplicable twists and turns, we just break up.
Even if they finally successfully enter the palace of marriage, many girls who become wives lack motherhood and skill, and do not change their dissolute nature of spending money and having fun, or spend all day I keep spending a lot of money on all kinds of weird health and beauty products.
Moreover, the situation of office worker husbands working hard all day long to make money and lonely wives finding lovers at home to cheat on them is also common in modern Japan.
It has become so common that people cannot complain about it.
Like Japanese women in the Edo period, who were still in their teens.
The innocent Lolita who is 20 years old, once she has a man and a family, she immediately becomes obedient and respectful.
Everything is centered on her husband, and she serves her man like a master.
She is busy doing housework from morning to night without any worries.
Too tired.
I gave them a few small jewelry and the like, and they immediately felt as happy as anything.
Not only is she "Yamato Nadeshiko", but she is also a loli.
Where can I find a Japanese girl with such rare attributes in modern society?
Even if there really is a place to look for, I'm afraid it's not something he, a special agent stationed in Japan, can reach.

Zhou Bili thought quietly.
Could it be that he traveled to the time and space of the late Ming Dynasty and said goodbye to everything in the past?
It was actually something worth celebrating. thing Well, it's great to be able to push down an elementary school girl or something.
What's even better is that even if you push down an elementary school girl, no one will call the police and point at him and say: Uncle policeman, this is the person who is really a lolita monster in this era.
Our paradise However, Comrade Xiao Zhou, you just push down the primary school students, but you actually ask the primary school students to cook for you and do housework.
Where is your shame?
On the other side, Miss Kazuko, who was cooking in the kitchen, didn't have so many messy thoughts.
It has been a year since she came to this strange city and was assigned to the man beside her, and her original panic has calmed down.
Overall, the fourteen-year-old Kazuko is very satisfied with her current life.
Of course, it would be better if she could have a child.
There was nothing I could do about it.
This married woman, Lolita, who came from an ordinary Japanese farm family, lived a miserable life in her hometown in the Japanese countryside.
You know, the first full meal Hezi had since she was a child was actually a piece of dry food given to her by the sailors after she was taken to a large iron ship by human traffickers.
Although it was hard to bite, the taste was the best she had ever felt in her life.
The feeling of distension in her stomach after eating that piece of dry food still makes her shed tears when she thinks about it.
It feels so wonderful to have a full stomach.
At the beginning of the Edo period in the 17th century, there were nearly 20 million people on the Japanese archipelago, and the Japanese experienced the dilemma of tight survival resources very early.
This mountainous island country is full of people, little land, and poor soil.
Coupled with the extremely harsh exploitation by the shogunate and the daimyo: six public officials and four citizens are the norm, and five public officials and five citizens are benevolent rule.
This makes the life of Japanese farmers extremely difficult, and it is difficult to eat food all year round.
The rice grown by oneself is not enough to survive on miscellaneous grains.
Even after the Meiji Restoration, extreme poverty still plagued ordinary people in rural Japan.
As described in Ashin, hiring a maid for a year's work for only one bag of rice is not the most tragic experience.
In some remote and barren mountainous villages, there is even a custom of abandoning the elderly.
In many places, in addition to the fact that the eldest son with the right to inherit can get married and have children, the second son and Saburo who do not have the right to inherit can only go out to find food and work on their own.
Otherwise, if they stay at home, they can only work for their elder brothers like slaves in exchange for a bowl of food.
They are not qualified to get married and start a family.
To be precise, the limited land cannot support more people, forcing these bachelors to work on donkeys, horses and other livestock.
As a strong working man, even if a man has such a good meal, let alone the living conditions of women.
When Hezi was still at home, her two younger brothers would eat the food first.
When it was her and her mother's turn, there wasn't much left.
And even though she ate so little at every meal, she still had to work from dawn to dusk to help her family with farm work.
What she looked forward to most every day was to eat one more rice ball, but unfortunately she never got to do so.
Hezi's family couldn't afford white rice at all.
They rely on a mixture of barnyard grass, taro, and radish to fill their stomachs.
Only during festivals can they have a few mouthfuls of fragrant white rice: that must be when the weather is good all year round and the rice harvest is good.
Even in the best of years, Kazuko had never eaten a complete rice ball.
Last year, the family was even more overwhelmed by the sudden increase in taxes and miscellaneous taxes.
They sold her to a passing trafficker for half a stone of brown rice.
Poor Kazuko left the home where she could never have enough to eat and went to live with the other girls.
Together we embarked on the voyage with infinite fear, but then we found that we had good luck: Since these thin Japanese girls arrived in Vladivostok, in order to make them plump up as soon as possible, the Far East Company has been extremely generous in terms of food.
There is enough rice, dried fish, and pasta every day.
You can eat whatever you want, as long as you can eat it.
I remember just boarding the Vladivostok pier and taking a rest in the quarantine camp.
For the first time, I opened the tinplate bucket for food delivered by the cook, and saw the rice, salted fish stew and vegetable soup packed with each other.

The Japanese girls were so excited that they shed tears and thanked the Bodhisattva for sending them to such a good place with plenty of food and clothing.
In the quarantine camp, Kazuko ate a lot with a smile every time.
In her opinion, enjoying delicious food is the happiest thing in life.
Then she kept eating until her stomach was extremely bloated, but she would rather stay bloated like this.
Even if she was bloated to death now, she felt it was worth it because she was really hungry.
Even in the first few days, every time it was her turn to eat, she would secretly hide half a steamed bun or sesame seed pancake or something, fearing that all this was actually a dream, and that when the night passed, she would go back to that kind of...
The miserable days of not having enough to eat year after year.
Soon after leaving the quarantine camp, Hezi allocated Zhou Billy, who was "controlled and used" by the Far East Company, through a lottery.
Regarding this, Hezi expressed that he was very calm.
There is no such thing as free love these days.
Women's marriages are all blind marriages arranged by their parents.
Even if they are sent to an old man as a concubine, or sold to a flower street and Liuxiang to work as a prostitute, they can only accept their fate. .
Therefore, as early as when he was sold by his parents, Hezi had already made some psychological preparations for his future encounters.
Now he can be matched with such a young and good-looking man, even if he cannot become the lady of the house that the matchmaker is marrying, with With his humble background, being able to become a concubine is already considered a high achievement.
Then, Kazuko felt that her life became more comfortable.
The first thing that made her happy was that the foreign man she was serving could actually speak fluent Japanese, which was quite rare among the "upper class" in Vladivostok.
Although his accent is a bit strange, the difference between modern Kanto standard Japanese and the seventeenth century Kansai Japanese dialect is at least as big as Mandarin and Shanghainese, but at least he can communicate with Kazuko.
Unlike those Japanese girls who are assigned to other masters, because of the language barrier, they can't even speak at home.
They can only sign language when anything happens, and they often make mistakes and make a lot of jokes.
We had no choice but to get together and complain to each other in our free time.
Secondly, there is no one else in this man's family.
Not only are there no elders to serve, but there are also no difficult housewives to deal with.
Moreover, although this man of mine does not look like a high-ranking official and does not even have a servant at home, but looking at the exquisiteness of this house and the little rumors he heard from the neighbors, he should be at least a samurai level. .
In terms of food and clothing, even the most lavish samurai home she had ever seen could not match it, not to mention a cabinet full of thick clothes and "electric lamps" that could illuminate without burning.
Stove coal that can make a fire without firewood A gas stove with a villain singing inside, an "opera box" and a radio.
These are magical gadgets that only gods can use.
In terms of food alone, it is a hundred times better than before: every meal has four or five dishes, and the staple food is all It's fine rice and noodles, and there's no shortage of fish and meat.
As the hostess who manages the housework, Kazuko is very clear about the family background in this small house.
The vegetable cellar underground in the yard is filled with enough refined rice and noodles to feed two people for the first half of the year, as well as potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes and other miscellaneous grains.
For a change.
The kitchen was filled with jars and jars, filled with Chinese cabbage, green carrots, prickly ash, cabbage, mustard heads, pickled sauerkraut, pickles, kimchi, and soju made from corn stalks, plus some dried fish, dried whale meat and Salted fish, as well as scallops, fish balls and dried kelp suitable for Japanese tastes, are enough to make every meal on the table full of meat.
If you want to eat something fresh, you can also go to the market to see if you can buy any game such as roe deer and wild geese.
Yesterday, in order to celebrate the New Year, the company gave each traveler a benefit, mainly some sausages, bacon, a small bag of rice cakes, and a lot of mushrooms and fungus, plus a lot of dried fruits, melon seeds, grilled fish fillets, and squid. silk and other snacks for entertainment.
What surprised Kazuko the most was , there are actually a few bottles of canned fruit.
These fruits may not be a rare thing in summer, but in these nine severe winters, they are extremely precious things.
In Wakko's hometown, even the richest people Master, I’m afraid I won’t be able to eat fruit during the Chinese New Year either.
He peeked at Zhou Bili who was eating dumplings without paying attention to his side.
The greedy Kazuko turned around, carefully opened a half-eaten can, and fished out a few pieces of sugary apples at a very fast speed.
Put it in your mouth, then close your eyes and chew slowly.
A sweet and greasy taste suddenly spread in the mouth, making Kazuko frown a little even though she was happy: there seemed to be a little too much sugar in the can, covering up the fragrance of the apples, and they were cut into cubes.
The apples are soft and fluffy, not crispy at all, and they really don’t taste that good.
But then, while she was eating, she suddenly laughed again.
Haha, she had only lived a good life for a few months, so why did she start to be picky?
Think about it when she was back home in Japan, not to mention canned fruits.
Yes, even the sour wild fruits found in the mountains are a rare delicacy for her.

As for sugar, it seems that even the children in the village chief’s family may not be able to eat it all year round.
Now I really live a fairy-like life here.
Although the men around me are indifferent and don't like to talk much, they are at least considerate.
They never beat themselves, but occasionally tie themselves up with ropes. weird shameful pose Since they moved in together, he has bought more clothes for himself than his whole family had in the past.
The fabrics and colors are very different.
There is even one piece that even a samurai lady in Japan would not dare to dream of.
In this era of mink scarves in the outer Northeast, animal furs were extremely cheap, and it took several mink skins to exchange for an iron pot.
A few small pieces of jewelry given to me, such as 21st century mobile phone pendants, are also beautiful things that I have never seen in Japan.
The sleeping place is no longer a dirty haystack, but a warm fire pit.
As for the food, there are all kinds of delicacies that are unheard of in Japan, from dumplings and spring rolls to Western pastries.
This foodie girl, Kazuko, is as happy as if she is dreaming every day.
She has gained a lot of weight in the past few months, but it is because she was thin before.
Almost only the bones are left, so it is actually only slightly plump at the moment.
In addition to the shortcoming of not having servants to serve, I am afraid that in my hometown in Japan, even the feudal clan elders who owned hundreds of stone fiefdoms could not afford to enjoy such a luxurious and happy life.
I heard that in order to deal with the rebellion of the Choshu clan, the shogunate All the feudal lords and feudal lords were collecting money and raising money to prepare for war.
The lives of people all over Japan are becoming more and more miserable.
Compared with the relatives who are still suffering in their hometowns, what else can they complain about?
Although their lives are so good, they don’t think about how to repay their men by serving them wholeheartedly.
Instead, they are like this If you are picky, I am afraid the Bodhisattva will punish you for your greed and insufficiency.
Just when Hezi was mentally blaming himself for being too greedy, the salted fish in the pan was already cooked, exuding an alluring aroma.
Hezi quickly put out the fire, put the salted fish on a plate, and sprinkled a little pepper.
Then he walked to Zhou Billy with small steps, knelt down, blushed and lowered his head to put the plate on the table.
There was clearly a touch of charm in those shy eyes, showing some wonderful contrast in cuteness.
Although the appearance of this loli can't be said to be very beautiful, her docile and charming appearance really made Zhou Bili, who had already been made nauseous by various hot girls, feel very excited. go aside, Then he gently pulled Hezi into his arms.
Hezi was slightly stunned at first, but then he remembered the endless energy of this man last night, and he couldn't help but feel something in his body, and he let him do whatever he wanted to do.
No matter how shy his face was, his eyes were full of charm, and then the two of them began to entangle themselves without shame.
Due to Zhou Bili's sudden appearance and Hezi Loli's refusal to welcome him, it took them more than an hour to finish the breakfast on New Year's Day.
It wasn't until the alarm clock on the cabinet was about to reach noon that Zhou Bili put on his clothes with satisfaction.
While rubbing his sore waist and shoulder muscles, he stroked the panting Kazuko, and chatted for a few times before reluctantly leaving.
I walked out of the room, ready to go shopping.
After putting on a thick warm down jacket and pushing his bicycle out of the house, Zhou Bi first took a deep breath of cold air, and then he saw a Tatar woman from the neighbor Lao Zhang's family, wearing a fur coat and a pair of long leather boots.
He came back from the street carrying two metal fireworks boxes that had been discarded after being launched.
The other party accidentally looked up and saw Zhou Bili who was about to go out on a bicycle, so he smiled and said hello to him.
On last night's New Year's Eve, in order to make the people who had left their hometowns have a happier time, the management of Far East Company racked their brains and arranged many programs.
Among them, the most eye-catching highlight was the one at night.
These fireworks were all produced by the arsenal.
It was developed and transformed from the leftover materials of seamless steel pipes to allow the arsenal to produce fireworks.
I am afraid that only the Far East Company can do this.
When the lively and colorful fireworks are over, these disposable fireworks stands become scrap metal and are left on the street without care.
However, for the natives of the Far East who are short of metal all year round and have to use bone knives and flint arrow clusters, such casually discarded fireworks racks are no different than throwing away money.
So, the Tatar woman from the old Zhang family, who seemed generous and generous but was actually very calculating, picked up all the fireworks racks scattered on the street near the door of her home and hid them in the corner of the courtyard like treasures.
I don't know what use it can be put to.
Speaking of which, Lao Zhang’s wife, a native of the Far East, did not actually come from a legitimate origin.
About half a month after Zhou Billy traveled through, the expedition team of the Far East Company defeated several hostile tribes nearby and captured more than 2,000 people from various nearby tribes. indigenous woman.
At that time, they were all tied to their arms by leather ropes and formed into a long string.

They were escorted back in a mighty manner.
Their faces were all pale and lifeless, with sadness and fear.
Among them, a few of the most upright-looking women were favored by a few time-travelers with wild tastes.
The remaining Tatar women were assigned to Liao people, Korean slave workers and Japanese mercenaries recruited by the company based on their work performance.
Zhou Bili still vaguely remembers that when he was just assigned to Lao Zhang next door, this native The woman's face was full of fear and uneasiness, and she looked embarrassed with scars on her body.
Unexpectedly, in just a few months, this woman who was kidnapped from nowhere had completely adapted to life in Vladivostok and regarded this place as her new home.
The women of these ignorant indigenous tribes in the outer Northeast are actually not afraid of being robbed.
There have always been frequent wars between tribes, and women are also one of the important resources that the indigenous people compete with each other.
For women, life is easy wherever they go.
As long as they give birth to children, their lives will settle down.
In this outer Northeast where the fittest survive, there is no room for their hatred and sadness.
Survival is the most important thing.
After the tribe was destroyed, these women could only rely on other tribes to live.
When wars are particularly frequent, it is common for certain women to be transferred to several tribes in succession.
Therefore, after being kidnapped to the Port of Vladivostok and assigned to the travelers and "naturalized people activists" here, they experienced first-hand the affluent life that was far better than that of the tribes in the past.
The position of these indigenous women immediately changed a hundred times.
After an eighty-degree change, they began to have a great sense of belonging to Vladivostok, the Far East Company, and their new men, and truly regarded this place as their home.
Poor people are so easily satisfied.
After saying yes to the neighbor's aboriginal lady who picked up rags, Zhou Bi got on his bicycle and headed towards the business district.
Along the way, under the cover of white snow, this town that was born from scratch was so clean and tidy, with neat lawns. , exquisite flower beds dotted in every corner of the town.
The empty city is dotted with wooden houses in twos and threes, which looks very much like a modern Russian city with vast land and sparsely populated areas.
The wide road is straight and flat, with coniferous pines planted on both sides.
Occasionally, a car will roar past.
After the successful development of the oil well on Sakhalin Island, the Far East Company has basically got rid of the fuel crisis.
Approval for the use of oil I feel more relaxed and there are gradually more cars running on the street.
Beside the road, a group of refugees from Liaodong who had just arrived by boat were visiting the city environment of Vladivostok under the leadership of several veterans, and were stunned by the scenes in front of them: steel monster cars roared from them As we passed by, many huge machines roared and emitted thick black smoke.
Buildings are about to go up all around.
The flat roads divide the continuous construction sites into independent areas.
Until yesterday's annual holiday, there were still countless people busy here.
All the above-mentioned sights left these fleeing Liao people dumbfounded, and their hearts were filled with turmoil.
The sight that frightened them the most was a row of giant steel dragons roaring from a distance, breathing thick smoke, which scared them so much that they hurriedly ran to both sides to avoid it.
The veteran who was the guide had no choice but to make a bad face, kick and beat him and yell and curse for a long time.
It was difficult to intimidate them until the train roared past and they stopped.
But everyone was still pale and their bodies were shaking slightly.
After a while, they still had lingering fears.
After a rough glance at the rude appearance of these Ming Dynasty Liaodong people, Zhou Bili grinned with a mocking smile, but he didn't even bother to look at them, so he bypassed them and rode straight to the busiest commercial district square.
The square is surrounded by various shops and stalls.
Even on the first day of the Lunar New Year, there are a few shops open for business, and there are also some mountain people who brave the severe cold of minus 20 degrees to set up stalls selling mountain products on the edge of the square.
In the center of the square is an obelisk made of white marble, with "Monument to the People's Heroes of the Far East" inscribed on the front.
From a distance, it looks like the Washington Monument standing behind the White House.
The base of the obelisk is made of black marble.
It is built with a personal name written on it in white regular letters.
They are basically officers and soldiers who died on the battlefield.
At first glance, it looks very solemn and solemn, just like the monument to revolutionary martyrs in modern China.
But as long as he looked up, Zhou Bili couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
He saw that the top of this "solemn" obelisk was surrounded by ancient Greek and Roman style clocks.
The inner ring of the clock is decorated with the twelve zodiac signs of Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces.
The outer ring is ancient Roman numerals.
When the hour hand points to a number, the corresponding constellation lights up.
The blue light in the night can easily remind travelers of the ancient Saint Seiya comics.
It's just that the order is exactly the opposite.
The lights are gradually extinguished in other people's homes, but they are gradually lit here.
When all twelve houses are lit up, they will all go out, allowing a new cycle to begin again.
As for the armored warrior statue decorated in front of the obelisk, it's basically Saint Seiya, right?
"Hey, the designer who built this monument must be a fan of Saint Seiya."
Zhou Billy parked his bicycle on the side of the road, looked at the obelisk and complained, but his mood did not rise and fall.
As early as when he traveled here, he already knew clearly that after the time-travelers messed up history, this time and space It has long become a ridiculous world.
People who are too sane will go crazy.
But if most people become crazy, the crazy people will no longer be crazy.
Until then, only sane people are crazy.
Uh, wait, what on earth was I thinking about just now?
He rubbed his dizzy head and finally remembered that when they were having sex together last night, Kazuko shyly told himself that her period had not come for two months.
And Zhou Bili also noticed keenly that this Japanese girl suddenly became interested in eating candied fruits, especially sour pickled plums and other things.
This made him extremely excited and worried.
Could it be that he was going to be a father soon?
So, Billy Zhou, who was extremely excited, rode his bike to a hospital near the business district, regardless of the fact that today was the Chinese New Year, hoping to get a doctor who knew gynecology to come to his home to see the woman, or at least ask for some tests.

However, Billy seems to have some bad luck today: the hospital set up by Far East Company in the business district is not open, and the doctors and nurses seem to be on spring break.
However, just as he was about to ride back in disappointment, the square suddenly became extremely noisy and chaotic.
Many people raised their heads noisily, pointing to the sky and talking.
Zhou Bili raised his head in confusion, and immediately noticed the striking abnormality.
At the end of the distant sky, a bright light point suddenly appeared at some point, and it quickly became more and more conspicuous.

Well, could it be that this is a bolide and it will hit the ground soon?
I hope it doesn't damage any houses.
Looking at the blazing fireball that was rapidly brightening in the sky, Zhou Billy thought this way.

Hey, comrades, hurry up.
