A stone house, a shabby room, a man was playing with a bunch of weird things in his hand, while his young son was standing next to him and watching attentively.
This man is Tang Wenwu.
The appearance of Mr.
Cat opened Tang Wenwu's eyes to a whole new world.
He learned that there was such an incredible thing as traveling through time and space.
This undoubtedly broadened his horizons a lot.
But what makes this science madman most happy is that Mr.
Cat puts a challenge in front of him, a once-in-a-lifetime, unique commission in the world to create a device that can increase psychic abilities and lead to qualitative changes.
The reward for Master Mao is very simple and cost-free, which is "knowledge".
In this era of Qing Dynasty, the latest academic knowledge is not available, and some of it is even being studied or has not yet been confirmed.
For example, x-rays, radioactivity, and electrons.
A modern high school student may have some understanding of these three things.
However, in China in the 14th year of Guangxu's reign, if you knew this, you would be a weirdo, or even a monster.
Speaking of which, I have to mention the national conditions of China at that time.
It is said that the Westernization Movement is also called the Self-Strengthening Movement.
It has been carried out for so many years since the end of the Xianfeng decade.
The Qing Dynasty should have made some progress.
Unfortunately, many things cannot be inferred according to common sense.
First of all, there is a problem with the starting point of the Westernization Movement, which is the so-called "learning from the skills of the barbarians to control the barbarians."
When China has reached that point, you still feel that the "world" is under your feet, your master is the "Son of Heaven", and everyone else is just a barbarian.
This kind of thinking is really funny.
Since 1840, the great powers have used various means such as military, diplomacy, commerce and trade to carve up the big cake of China.
Basically, the unequal treaties signed in China during those years can be bound into a novel and published, and the content is quite exciting.
Bizarre.
If a Chinese minister was asked to write the preface to this book, he might write, "This is the account book of my charity to those barbarian countries."
Hey, failure and lagging behind are not shameful.
What is shameful is not being able to admit it.
However, the Qing government's firm belief in making a fool of themselves and pretending to be fat cannot be shaken.
Even if they lose their face, they still have to keep a skin.
Therefore, this movement that was created to maintain the crumbling Qing government was actually doomed to fail at the beginning.
In those years, although many students studied "Western learning", it is difficult to correct the old ideas that have been entrenched for thousands of years.
Came here.
Of course, this idea is not without merit.
In fact, I feel that in China in the 21st century, apart from changes in form, we are still following the old path of our ancestors, which is: everything is inferior, only reading is high.
It’s just that modern people have more knowledge to master, more ways to cheat, morals are more corrupted, and people’s hearts are more sinister.
As for the essence, it’s the same Okay, let’s go too far.
After saying so much, I just mean one thing.
The popularity of Western physics knowledge, or all scientific knowledge, among the people in the Qing Dynasty was infinitely close to zero.
Therefore, the knowledge given by Master Mao was basically enough for Tang Wenwu to digest for ten or eight years.
The other party was naturally grateful and excited.
In fact, even if Master Mao did not give him any reward, he would put a lot of work into making this spiritual weapon.
You must know that for a scientist, overcoming the challenge itself is the best reward.
Therefore, since the day when Mr.
Cat came to visit, Tang Wenwu had been conducting research all night in that stone house.
As for the five-year-old Tang Xiaohu, who would be Senior Xinglong in the future, he also accompanied his father in the laboratory. .

Don't think that he was particularly interested in inventions at that time.
Most of the time he was saying something like: "Dad, I'm hungry."
And Mr.
Cat will come to this suburban hut every two days to check on Tang Wenwu's progress.
Although this place is remote, it is not difficult to find.
If you ask anyone within a hundred miles, who would not know about Tang Wenwu's progress?
What about the existence of this weird guy Wen Wu?
The conversation is divided into two parts: Master Mao is preparing to return to the 21st century, while Wang Xu is fulfilling his dream of becoming a gangster.
After the sixty-odd model citizens under his command were inactive for more than ten days, something finally happened, and it happened on New Year's Eve.
On this day, a congregant named Lu Quan was beaten into a fat man on the road.
Three or five people carried him back to the church.
Wang Xu was surprised at that time: "What's wrong?
How can we send people here or to the hospital?"
Several other people said: "He must come to see you first."
Wang Xu thought to himself: This formation seems to mean that if I don't help him, he will die in peace, right?
Without saying much, Wang Xu simply checked his injuries, and then said: "Okay, Lao Lu, please stop moaning.
I won't get excited if you moan again.
If you have anything to say, just say it."
Bar."
Lu Quan was lying on the bench, staring at Wang Xu with affectionate eyes, and grabbed his hand: "Boss Bain Godfather, you have to make the decision for me."
"What are you doing?"
Wang Xu shook off his hand, "I'm warning you, if you dare to use this look and tone to me again, I'll slap you to death."
Lu Quandao: "That's me" "Stop talking nonsense, turn around, don't let me see your face."
Lu Quan had no choice but to turn around, suppress his deliberately miserable tone and said: "Feng Liu from the north of the city led a group of people and beat me up."
Wang Xu sat there: "It's for no reason and it's the Chinese New Year.
Why would he hit you?"
"This" Lu Quan was hesitant: "I owed him a few taels of silver and he said, I didn't have enough money on the New Year's Eve, so he beat me up."
Wang Xu snorted coldly: "I hate cheating."
He put his hands in his trouser pockets and stood up, looking back at the statue of Jesus: "This is the house of God, and lies are not welcome."
Lu Quan felt chills from Wang Xu's words, and even the injuries on his body seemed to no longer hurt.
At this moment, he even had the urge to run away.
"I, I, I am telling the truth."
Wang Xu's face suddenly appeared in front of Lu Quan, scaring Lu Quan so much that he rolled to the ground and asked, "Who am I?"
Lu Quan swallowed his saliva: "In vain" "What?"
Wang Xu raised his voice.
"Godfather, you are our godfather" Wang Xu sneered: "Very good, as long as you lost lambs are willing to call me, my door here will always be open to you."
Lu Quan's psychological defense finally collapsed, and he stammered: "I, I, actually, I slept with a brothel girl in Bada Hutong, she, she, she is" "She is Feng Liu's sweetheart" Wang Xu asked after what he said.
"Yes, yes" Wang Xu said: "I understand.
You can go back to recuperate.
I will handle this matter.
It has nothing to do with you anymore."
Lu Quan didn't dare to have any doubts.
What he wanted to do most at the moment was to leave quickly.
When Wang Xu waved his hand to signal him to leave, Lu Quan felt as if he had received an amnesty and ran faster than anyone else.
The guy who came was surprised to find that Brother Lu’s legs and feet were quite nimble.

"Is it so satisfying to be a gangster boss?"
Master Mao walked out from the back of the auditorium.
Wang Xu smiled: "The taste can only be understood, but cannot be expressed in words."
"Huh, I've also noticed this group of people.
Ever since they became good citizens under your control, they have been bullied by other gangsters in Beijing, and even ridiculed by people from other churches.
This is in line with the saying that "people who are kind will be punished" People bully me, this is all thanks to you, godfather.”
Wang Xu stood up: "I have considered this issue a long time ago.
Lu Quan's beating today is the opportunity I have been waiting for for a long time.
I have been waiting for someone like Feng Liu to jump out."
Master Mao naturally knew what he was planning: "Let's have some fun, it's best not to kill anyone."
Wang Xu was still laughing, "Brother Wanyiwan has been bullied for half his life.
Now he can not only bully people, but also help those who were bullied by me.
What kind of psychological experience is this?
Why don't you enjoy it?"
Mr.
Cat sighed in a low voice: "Have you been fooled by me?"
"What did you say?"
"It's nothing, just do whatever you like":
