Chapter 236 The Golden Finger is Late...

Probably because I was worried.

After all, the current situation is really not very good.

So the blond middle-aged man really had a desire to talk, and he started to talk non-stop, unknowingly revealing a lot of information.

Min Jingwen also played his role very carefully——

An innocent Chinese person who was injured during yesterday's imperial public demonstration due to the rising anti-Chinese sentiment.

After getting hit on the back of the head, I feel dizzy and have a headache, and my thinking is not as sharp as before. Isn't this normal?

Thank God, this was a life saver.

Therefore, as long as he was careful and didn't behave too abnormally, he wouldn't be easily suspected.

However, even so, Min Jingwen still firmly remembered the principle of hiding, knowing that the most important thing for him at the moment was to develop stealthily.

Therefore, he was extremely cautious, and no matter how confused he was, he would never ask about certain things "directly".

At most, I would agree with the other person, repeat a certain key word, and try to use my limited acting skills to show confusion, surprise, etc. on my face...

I hope to arouse the other person's interest and get them to say a few more words.

That's all we can do. In short, we should be cautious.

——After all, he couldn't tell whether it was common sense or not.

——If I ask this rashly, will it arouse suspicion?

It was really a bad idea. If I had known earlier, I should have pretended to have amnesia the moment the other person walked in...Min Jingwen felt a little regretful, but it was a pity that it was not appropriate to make up for it at this time.

All we can do is stick to the current route and play our own role well.

Fortunately, the blond middle-aged man still managed to reveal a lot of useful information in this situation.

"...In fact, the situation has been unstable for the past few years. Business has become increasingly difficult. The Empire is very domineering, but the Aurora people are even more domineering. They are unwilling to make concessions for the sake of their maritime interests."

While applying medicine to Min Jingwen, he muttered:

"I've seen it coming for a long time. There's bound to be a war between the two, but it's been delayed until now. Hey, the war is definitely going to start next, and it's impossible to stop it no matter what..."

"Isn't it?" Min Jingwen grinned and responded dryly: "We have already launched a blitzkrieg against Poland..."

This incident is simply shocking.

But regardless of whether it is a simple coincidence, it cannot be changed. This is a signal of war that one country has brazenly launched against another country.

How could the empire choose to swallow its anger and accept it calmly?

Especially in the other party's few words, it was vaguely revealed how huge the empire was.

"That's true, but the people of Cathay are indeed not easy to mess with... In the past few years, the Empire has always said that Cathay is not free and democratic enough."

The blond middle-aged man sighed and said with a wry smile on his face.

"But we followed a merchant ship to the other side of the sea. You should know what happened. It's not like that at all..."

"If I have to say it, I can only say that the country of Zhendan is like a huge bee colony. Once it makes up its mind, the entire country will have only one voice."

"Compared to that, look at our empire and you'll see how bad the situation is now."

"The Emperor, the Church, the Grand Duke, the Imperial Parliament... God knows whether the Chinese people will have crossed the Rhine by the time they come to a conclusion."

Perhaps because he was a little excited, the blond middle-aged man spoke a lot in one breath.

His expression was quite gnashing of teeth, with a hint of pity for the lack of hatred, anger at the lack of fighting spirit, and disappointment in the failure to make a difference.

After all, no matter what, it's fine—

Watching the country go downhill little by little, just like the irreversible setting of the sunset, no matter how glorious it once was, the last afterglow is also fading away little by little...

As an imperial citizen, it is certainly not a good feeling psychologically.

“Ahahahaha, is that so…”

Min Jingwen laughed dryly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

A few black lines appeared unconsciously on his forehead. For some reason, he always felt that the situation the other party described seemed a bit like déjà vu?
Is it an illusion?

It must be an illusion, right?
I was thinking about this subconsciously, and at this moment, the peaceful night outside was suddenly broken.

It was as if a huge riot broke out.

Faintly, one could hear all sorts of shocking and noisy sounds, earth-shaking roars and growls, and even the overlapping footsteps of the crowd could be heard from afar.

It seems very far away.

Although Min Jingwen didn't know why he was able to determine the approximate direction and distance in an instant, even when they were at least several kilometers away -

Clearly noticed the moment the riot broke out.

But this did not prevent him from being startled at the first moment and his mind went blank.

"..."

"..."

"Min, wait here, I'll go out and take a look..."

The man who should be the original body's friend frowned, said something hurriedly, turned around and walked out.

He also thoughtfully locked the door.

Min Jingwen subconsciously stretched out his hand to Erkang, but before he could make a sound, he heard a click.

——Well, what else can I say.

——But it should be okay. It seems that this person and "me" are old friends with a deep friendship.

He took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down, trying to convince himself, and felt a little relieved.

In order to divert his attention, the time traveler could only ignore the riot that broke out in the distance, stop having unnecessary fantasies, and instead start trying to sort out the information he had just received.

Holy Roman Empire...

This name is very interesting...

Although from the information revealed in the man's words just now, it is indeed neither holy, nor Roman, nor even an empire...

This wasn't authentic at all—no, or rather, it was too authentic. And it seemed like the Holy Roman Empire was a bit odd. He had a vague suspicion that someone had already traveled through time before he did.

As for Aurora...

The emergence of another country across the sea...

——It deepened his suspicion.

First of all, the name itself is very questionable. It is an ancient name for Dongxia.

Volume 6 of the Buddha's Initiation Sutra says: "In the Jambu world there is the country of Zhendan."

Wang Bo's "Stele of Shanji Temple in Deyang County, Yizhou" written in the Tang Dynasty said: "The Jiaotai and Mirage Pavilion are now connected to the ruins of Zhendan; the moon and the stars are shining on the country of Bixie."

Song Lian's "Edict to the Monk of the Western Heaven to Confer the Zen Master Shanshi" during the Ming Dynasty said: "The Way of the Great Hero uses compassion and vows to guide people to do good. Therefore, its teachings flourished in the West and spread eastward to China."

Of course, if the only thing that is the same is the name, then the citation could be a coincidence.

But Min Jingwen happened to be from Dongxia, and the original body that was replaced by the time traveler was also from Dongxia, even the name was the same...

People like them are called Zhendan people in this world.

Even though he was originally from the Holy Roman Empire, he was defined as of Chinese descent, which concerned him a lot.

The possibility of coincidence does exist.

However, Min Jingwen would rather suspect that he is probably not the first time traveler, and this world has been used by his predecessors one after another, and it is a world that has been severely modified by alien elements.

This continent is Holy Rome...

The continent opposite is the Zhendan Celestial Empire...

The moon in the sky is red, and war is about to break out between the two countries...

It seems that the current world background is just like this general pattern. He doesn’t know whether there are other continents or what this planet is like. As a newcomer, he can only understand the tip of the iceberg for now.

Looking at the city outside the window, and the moment he crossed over on the street before, and then was knocked unconscious by a club, the fleeting glimpse at that time...

It seems like this is an era similar to the Victorian era?

Then maybe if I work hard, I still have a chance. I won't talk about gunpowder, cement, etc. I just hope that the seniors don't take up all the tracks, and at least leave a way out for me...

Min Jingwen was thinking about all sorts of things, with his thoughts wandering aimlessly.

He didn't know how long it had been before the sound of the door opening interrupted his thoughts and woke him up.

The original body's friend opened the door with a dark expression on his face:
"The war... has begun."

These words seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth with great difficulty.

"..."

"..."

"what?"

Min Jingwen was a little bit unbelievable.

It’s like the other party is also unable to believe it. Even if we thought it would definitely happen when we just discussed it, when it really happens, it still feels unreal.

The newcomer suddenly panicked.

Isn't this fatal?

I just came here, and now I'm told that the world war has begun? Logically speaking, shouldn't I have some time to develop and accumulate strength?
This is a new account, don't mess with it...

"The Empire... Has the Empire decided to declare war?" He wailed in his heart, forcing a smile with an unpleasant expression: "It seems that the upper class is actually very responsive."

"Hey, you'd better not count on the upper-class masters..."

The blond middle-aged man had a gloomy expression: "It was not the Empire that decided to formally declare war, but Zhendan unilaterally attacked us."

"We just launched a blitzkrieg on Poland yesterday, and today we are already preparing to land on the Empire’s homeland..."

"Under the pretext of upholding free trade, they launched a unilateral attack on the Empire..."

"..."

"..."

Isn't this right?
Min Jingwen's eyes widened. The more he listened to the script, the more outrageous it seemed.

So before these foreign gentlemen had time to finish their arguments, they discovered that the Orientals had already launched a blitzkrieg against Poland and then marched straight in...

Do we want to hold high the banner of free trade and blast open the empire's door?
He couldn't complain anymore.

"Min, don't go out for a while... Take this money first." The blond middle-aged man anxiously took out his wallet and solemnly handed the unfamiliar currency to his friend.

"I'll be watching over the store, so you don't have to show up... Damn, we might need to find a way to stock up on some stuff..."

Min Jingwen could no longer think about his friend's nagging.

His mind was in a mess, filled with anxiety and fear about the future.

War is coming!
What should I do?
"Ding--"

"The system is loading——"

At this moment, he heard a mechanical voice in his ears, as if it were the sound of nature.

Here it comes! Here it comes! A must-have cheat for time travelers!

In a moment of ecstasy, he almost couldn't help but roar out loud.

"The Urban Godly Rich System has been loaded and the host's identity has been bound—"

"Newbie gift packs are automatically distributed and available. 7778 million RMB has been deposited into the Agricultural Bank card ending in —"

The mechanical voice continued to remind them calmly.

"..."

"..."

Min Jingwen's expression froze instantly.

WTF?

Urban Super Rich System? I've traveled through time now, and you're transferring money to my account in my original world?
