Everyone was in a panic and quickly sent Chen Maosheng to the doctor.

And in Chen Maosheng's mind, a thought quietly emerged: "Who am I?"

As soon as this thought came up, two answers instantly emerged in Chen Maosheng's mind.

"The modern man Chen Maosheng!"

"Chen Shi's son, Chen Maosheng, the child prodigy of Chenjia Village!"

These two answers came out at the same time without any sense of incongruity.

Along with these two answers, streams of information blended together in his mind like a tide and were gradually digested and absorbed by him.

At the same time, Chen Maosheng gradually came to his senses.

"I am Chen Maosheng!"

"I am the modern man Chen Maosheng!"

"Now it's Chen Maosheng from Chenjia Village!"

"I... crossed?"

Chen Maosheng tried hard to digest the memories in his mind.

This time, he seemed to have suddenly awakened his past life memories, and suddenly understood his past and present lives. However, his last memory stayed at the moment of his death in the modern world.

After his death, he had no memory of entering the modern underworld and entering reincarnation.

Therefore, in Chen Maosheng's subjective consciousness, he died in modern times, then traveled to this era, and only at this moment did his memories merge.

"I never thought that I, Chen Maosheng, would have such a destiny and be able to travel back to ancient times."

"And... this ancient time is the Tang Dynasty?" Chen Maoli sorted out the memories in his mind and slowly woke up.

He opened his eyes and saw his father Chen Shi in this life, other villagers, and those unfamiliar officials.

"Wake up, wake up, the child prodigy finally woke up!"

When the people around saw Chen Maosheng waking up, they all shouted in surprise.

Before long, Chen Maosheng slowly figured out the whole story.

"It turns out that my reputation as a child prodigy has reached the ears of Li Shimin?" Chen Maosheng felt a little unbelievable. After he traveled through time, he unexpectedly gained the reputation of a child prodigy, and this reputation even reached the ears of the emperor.

"Perhaps this is the benefit of being a time traveler." Chen Maosheng thought to himself.

He also discovered that in this life, he had the ability to "remember everything he saw" and his logical thinking and comprehension abilities were far superior to those of ordinary people. Naturally, he thought that this was an ability that came with traveling through time, and it was his own trait as a traveler.

"What a good start!" After Chen Maosheng realized his current situation, he couldn't help feeling elated.

At the same time, he began to think seriously about his future: "What should I do next?"

"rebel?"

"Business?"

"Politics?"

Chen Maosheng repeatedly weighed various options in his mind and thought about his future development direction.

However, before he could plan for too long, he encountered something unexpected.

On this day, the county magistrate personally went to the countryside to promote a new plant. He stood in the center of the village and said loudly: "Your Majesty has received the grace of heaven and has obtained a divine object from heaven. If you plant it in the ground, it can produce a thousand kilograms per mu. Now, use the area around Chang'an City as an experimental field to promote this divine object."

Many people in Chenjia Village came to watch after hearing the news. Although many of them were just tenants and did not own their own land, they were still eager to watch the fun.

Chen Maosheng was also attracted by the lively scene and followed the crowd. Chen Maosheng heard that there was something exciting in the village, so he rushed over with great interest. Because of his reputation as a "child prodigy", everyone made way for him along the way, and he squeezed to the front row smoothly.

The county magistrate was standing on a high platform, introducing a new and exotic item to everyone: "My fellow villagers, this is a magical item called 'Tangshu'. It can grow in the soil and has a very impressive yield..."

Chen Maosheng looked closely, and his eyes widened immediately. Something very familiar came into his sight. Instantly, he blurted out an exclamation from his past life: "What the hell, sweet potato?"

What shocked Chen Maosheng was not just the sweet potato itself. In the context of the Tang Dynasty, he actually saw sweet potatoes with his own eyes! With his photographic memory, Chen Maosheng clearly remembered that in the long river of history, sweet potatoes were supposed to be introduced from overseas during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, and were originally called "sweet potatoes". According to common sense, sweet potatoes should not have appeared in the Tang Dynasty!

"How could this thing appear in the Tang Dynasty? And it's named 'Tangshu'?" Chen Maosheng couldn't help shaking his head and muttering, "Something's wrong, it's really wrong!"

The county magistrate had just finished introducing the sweet potato when he pulled out another item from his sleeve and said, "In addition to the sweet potato, there are other magical objects..."

Chen Maosheng looked again, and this time his jaw dropped in shock: "What the hell! Corn?" "What the hell! How come there are potatoes too?"

Chen Maosheng was completely dumbfounded when he saw the crops that the county magistrate had brought with him and was planning to have the villagers plant them. He was not unfamiliar with these crops at all! But without exception, they did not belong to this era at all!

"What on earth is going on..." Chen Maosheng muttered to himself, shocked and confused. Why did these crops, which should not have appeared in the Tang Dynasty, appear here? Moreover, they were all named "Tang".

"What went wrong? Could it be that a time traveler had been here before?" Chen Maosheng thought to himself. But then he changed his mind and thought, "No, even if a time traveler had been here before, it would be impossible for him to get these crops so easily, unless these things were brought here by the time traveler." Chen Maosheng suddenly thought of a guess: "After all, these crops have been improved and cultivated for many years to present their current appearance. They are completely modern, not ancient."

Take corn for example. Modern corn is high-yielding and delicious, with plump kernels. However, the original corn was not like this. It had low yields, average taste, and dry kernels. After generations of improvement and cultivation, it gradually became what we know today.

Chen Maosheng looked at the plump corn in front of him and was very sure that it was definitely a good variety of corn, just like the modern corn, not the original corn. So, he had this thought: if there really is a time traveler, it is likely to be a time traveler who "wears" and carries these things, which is very different from his "soul travel".

"Is that so..." Chen Maosheng thought for a moment and decided to ask the county magistrate: "Sir, where did you get these magical objects?"

Although Chen Maosheng was still young, he had been rewarded by Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty for his reputation as a "child prodigy". The county magistrate did not act arrogant at this moment, but replied patiently: "These magical objects are gifts from heaven! Our Tang Dynasty has been blessed by heaven, and Your Majesty has been blessed by heaven, so you have been able to obtain these magical objects to benefit the people of the Tang Dynasty..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Maosheng stopped asking questions, because he knew that if he continued asking, he would not get any results.

"It seems that I can only find an opportunity to explore it again in the future." Chen Maosheng pondered secretly, "If there are really other time travelers, and they are promoting these crops, then many of my plans cannot be implemented rashly."

Thinking of this, Chen Maosheng was ready to re-plan his plan. The grand ambitions in his heart had to be put aside for the time being. The most urgent task was to find out the source of these crops.

At the same time, Li Chunfeng left Chang'an City. He looked back at the towering Chang'an City Wall, feeling mixed emotions.

Although leaving Chang'an this time does not mean that he will never come back, he will probably not come back often in the future. He no longer has much nostalgia for the Tang Dynasty. On the one hand, Chechi Kingdom has a great attraction to him; on the other hand, the current situation of the Tang Dynasty also makes him disappointed.

The reason why he stayed in the Tang Dynasty was that he wanted to leave his own "inheritance" on this land. After all, it was in the Tang Dynasty that he got this inheritance. If he could leave a copy before leaving and then go to Chechi Kingdom, he would be able to have a clear mind and be worthy of his heart.

Li Chunfeng did not meet a suitable candidate in Chang'an City, so he left Chang'an City and planned to travel around the land of the Tang Dynasty to find a suitable successor.

During this period, Li Chunfeng heard news about the birth of "child prodigies" in various places in the Tang Dynasty, and his first destination was Chenjia Village.

Along the way, Li Chunfeng asked around as he moved forward. Not long after, he arrived outside Chenjia Village.

"There is a child prodigy in Chenjia Village named Maosheng. He could recognize a thousand characters at the age of two and could compose poems at the age of three..." Li Chunfeng, wearing a Taoist robe, asked people about the location of Chen Maosheng's home while thinking to himself: "People like him must be gifted or have wisdom. I just don't know if he has the talent to practice Taoism."

While thinking, Li Chunfeng came to the door of Chen Maosheng's house. He stood in front of the door, sang loudly, and then said: "I am passing by here, I want to ask for a bowl of water to drink, and by the way, meet the prodigy Maosheng."

When Chen Shi, Chen Maosheng's father, heard that a Taoist priest was coming, he hurriedly welcomed Li Chunfeng into his home. At that time, monks and Taoist priests had a higher status than ordinary people, and ordinary people respected them.

"May I ask what your Taoist name is?" Chen Shi also specifically asked Li Chunfeng's Taoist name to confirm whether he was a real Taoist.

"My Taoist name is 'Huang Guanzi'." Li Chunfeng said.

Chen Shi scratched his head. He had never heard of this Taoist name. Although the name "Huang Guanzi" was well-known in the Taoist community of the Tang Dynasty, ordinary people did not know it.

"Maosheng! Maosheng!" Chen Shi called out to his son loudly.

Chen Maosheng had heard the Taoist's voice outside the door before, and a hint of curiosity surged in his heart. Hearing his father's call, he walked out of the house and saw the Taoist in the yard.

Chen Maosheng was slightly stunned. The Taoist in front of him looked so much like a Taoist. His Taoist style and immortal bones couldn't be more standard.

Whether in his previous life or this life, it was the first time that Chen Maosheng had seen such a standard Taoist priest.

"Maosheng, this is Taoist Huang Guanzi. I heard of your reputation, so I came to see you." Chen Shi introduced.

"Huang Guanzi?" When Chen Maosheng heard the name, he felt familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

"Huang Guanzi... I have never come into contact with this kind of Taoist priest in this life. If I have heard of him, it must have been in my previous life." Chen Maosheng thought to himself, "If I have heard of 'Huang Guanzi' in modern times, does that mean that the reputation of this Taoist priest can be passed down through the ages and even to future generations?"

With this in mind, Chen Maosheng wanted to get more information, so he asked, "Master Huang Guanzi, may I know your secular name?"

Li Chunfeng smiled slightly and said, "My name is Huang Guanzi, my surname is Li, and my given name is Chunfeng."

"Li Chunfeng?" This answer made Chen Maosheng stand there in shock.

"Li Chunfeng?" Chen Maosheng repeated it again. These three words, like thunder, kept echoing in his mind.

If the Taoist name "Huang Guanzi" only made Chen Maosheng feel vaguely familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, then the name "Li Chunfeng" was truly a household name for him!
Who is Li Chunfeng? Chen Maosheng naturally knows him well. He is an astronomer, mathematician, and Yi scholar, proficient in astronomy, calendar calculation, yin and yang, and Taoism.

However, these achievements are not enough to fully demonstrate his status. What is important is that Li Chunfeng has left a strong and colorful mark both in the history of Taoism and in the history of orthodoxy!
He can be regarded as the first person to classify "wind".

In the ancient legends circulated among the people, he and Yuan Tiangang created the mysterious "Tui Bei Tu" together.

What exactly is this "Tui Bei Tu"? It was originally used to predict the fate of the Tang Dynasty. It carefully arranges the names and sequences of the sixty hexagrams, and matches them with the heavenly stems and earthly branches, in a cycle of Jia Zi and Yi Chou. The whole book accurately predicts many important events that happened in the Tang Dynasty and subsequent dynasties, and its magic is amazing.

And for the last hexagram in the book, there is a eulogy that reads: "There are so many things to say that it is impossible to say them all, so it is better to push the back and go home to rest." It is for this reason that this wonderful book was named "The Tui Bei Tu".

"This person is truly an extraordinary and saintly existence in Taoism!" In Chen Maosheng's mind, the historical records about Li Chunfeng flashed through like a tide, and finally turned into a heartfelt sigh.

Without a doubt, this was the first important person that Chen Maosheng had met since he traveled to this world. This encounter made Chen Maosheng feel uneasy for a long time.

And Li Chunfeng seemed to be keenly aware of the turmoil in Chen Maosheng's heart.

"Oh? Little prodigy, you seem to know me?" Li Chunfeng looked at Chen Maosheng's slightly strange expression, and he already understood something in his heart.

However, Li Chunfeng still had a hint of doubt in his heart. How did Chen Maosheng know about him?
Li Chunfeng had a clear understanding of his own situation. Although he held an official position in the court, his reputation was not prominent, and it was difficult for ordinary people to know of his existence. Only some people in the monastic community had heard of him. (End of this chapter)
