I've never felt happy to become an immortal.
Chapter 103 Queen's Holiday, Buddha Mother's Black Eyes
Chapter 103 Queen's Holiday, Buddha Mother's Black Eyes
Qin Xiaochan couldn't help but feel nervous just by entering the subway platform.
When she saw this huge technological creation for the first time, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.
When she heard that this long steel dragon could run at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour underground, she experienced for the first time the horror of productivity in modern industrial society.
Not only that, the brightly dressed men and women on the streets also made her fall into great self-doubt.
A world where cultivation is impossible has developed far better than a world with cultivators.
"Don't get me wrong." Bai Xuan explained, "It's not like this everywhere."
Qin Xiaochan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, there can't be many places like this, right?"
"It's not much, after all, Lu City is only barely in the top 20 nationwide, and there's a clear gap between it and the top five."
Qin Xiaochan was stunned. Such a big city was not even in the top 20.
Compared with here, Jiankang can only be regarded as a village in the city.
"Don't think too much. The world is different. There's no need to force comparisons." Bai Xuan handed over a cup of bubble tea: "Try this."
The excited Qin Xiaochan's face went from full of curiosity to full of shock and finally to silence.
It’s not that I can’t understand this feeling.
Bai Xuan felt the same way when he first went to the Spring and Autumn Period and saw the exaggerated Gundam battles and the murderous battlefield commanders.
All three views have been impacted, and the world view has been broken and reshaped.
Qin Xiaochan took a small sip of the bubble tea, and then her eyes lit up. She kicked her feet in the chair and said, "This is delicious!"
She drank a third of it in one breath and sighed deeply, "It tastes better than the nectar and jade dew in the palace."
"There's no comparison." Bai Xuan shook his head: "Nectar and Jade Dew can nourish the body, but this can only make people gain weight."
"It won't grow." Qin Xiaochan said directly: "This little energy will be used up after one rotation of Qi and one punch... But it's a good thing for ordinary soldiers. It can definitely replenish their physical strength."
Sugar is also an important strategic material and of course a good thing.
"You can't take any of it with you." Bai Xuan said, "You can eat it, but you don't have the magical power of hiding the world in your sleeve, right?"
Qin Xiaochan glanced at Bai Xuan and said, "Yes, if you can bring something back, you will definitely seek cooperation with the local authorities."
"Maybe not." Bai Xuan couldn't say for sure. There was no way to prove it in the past, so he had considered whether to borrow the power of the country.
Now, I don’t have such an idea at all. I have already passed the most difficult period of pioneering. Wouldn’t it be great to enjoy the experience alone?
Just be a law-abiding citizen.
Qin Xiaochan sat on the side of the road sipping milk tea and quickly finished it: "Another cup."
"Let's drink later." Bai Xuan said, "First, I'll take you to buy some clothes."
Qin Xiaochan put her hands behind her back and asked, "Do you really want to buy it?"
"You do not want?"
"I may not come here again." Qin Xiaochan said slowly: "Wouldn't it be a waste if I bought it?"
"It's not like a piece of clothing is wasted." Bai Xuan stared at the vicious words on her clothes and laughed, "Far from it."
The country doesn't need us to save fabric, it would rather we consume it as much as possible.
Qin Xiaochan sighed softly, "I really don't need any clothes. What kind of clothes haven't I seen in the palace?"
As she walked along, she looked at the clothes worn by men and women on the street, but none of them were to her liking or taste.
Either too thin or too revealing.
She followed Bai Xuan into the mall with little interest, found a store, and then...
Really fragrant.
The modern clothing industry is so powerful, with all kinds of styles from ancient times to the present, there is always one you like.
Bai Xuan had no intention of buying a house for her, but instead rented it.
This is a shop that rents and sells clothes. What they rent and sell are not ordinary clothes, but Hanfu... They are all various imitations of ancient costumes. Although they are imitations of ancient times, their core is more modern.
There is also a makeup artist in the store, who offers quick makeup for 50 yuan and fine makeup for 200 yuan.
Bai Xuan thought that the girl was naturally beautiful and didn't need makeup, but the young lady who ran a Hanfu shop was shocked when she saw Qin Xiaochan. Without saying a word, she started to offer her clothes at bargain prices. In the end, she simply made an ultimate offer and only charged a hundred yuan for the clothing rental and makeup. The only request was that Qin Xiaochan be a model for a while. The shop needed the rights to her portrait and put it in the shop's hall of fame for publicity.
After Qin Xiaochan changed into a set of Hanfu, she also put her hair up in a bun. The decorations on it were naturally not pure gold but copper-plated, and not real gems but industrial glass, but they looked shiny and could not be distinguished from the real ones.
If we really bring this headdress back to Nanchu, there will definitely be people who will believe that it is a burial item of the Queen of Qin.
Qin Xiaochan was very quiet when she was being dressed up, as if she was already used to it. She sat steadily, and her whole body exuded a confident and graceful temperament, not like a fifteen-year-old girl.
It wasn't until Bai Xuan walked in that she showed her lively side.
"How do I look?" Qin Xiaochan turned around.
"They're disguised like ancient people." Bai Xuan clapped his hands calmly. "The money has been paid. Let's go. It's time for lunch."
“This dress is so comfortable.”
"You can feel it more. After all, you have to go back at night."
"Someone here knows how to put makeup on people." Qin Xiaochan looked at her reflection in the glass for a while and said, "This doesn't look like me at all."
"You've aged a lot," Bai Xuan commented. "To match this palace dress and pendants, you've forced on some heavy makeup. Your technique is pretty average... In my opinion, light makeup is enough."
"Yeah, I think so too."
……
At lunch time, I chose a buffet.
This is because Bai Xuan noticed that Qin Xiaochan had an unusual appetite.
She did indeed show off her appetite by eating as much as three strong men, and it was only after Bai Xuan reminded her that she slowed down her eating speed.
"The food culture here is so rich." She tilted her head. "But why are so many dishes so similar to ours?"
"coincide."
"I don't believe in coincidences, I only believe in inevitability." Qin Xiaochan continued, "And I've discovered that even though I'm from there, I can recognize most of the words here and read and pronounce them. The pronunciations are very similar, but it just sounds a bit like a foreign dialect."
Bai Xuan thought, you just found out?
This is naturally the result of Bai Xuan's strong promotion.
Modern characters are extremely simple. He has been promoting the simplification and revision of characters since the Spring and Autumn Period. Dozens of people have been promoting it throughout history, and it finally reached its peak during the Bai Taiyue period. The powerful prime minister successfully promoted the simplified characters and fixed the pronunciation of the official language of the Qin Dynasty. Hundreds of years later, even though some times have changed, the orthodox Qin Dynasty still spread to Southern Chu.
It cannot be said that Bai Xuan interfered with the evolution of history, but rather that he himself is a part of history.
But he had no way of explaining this and could only make excuses.
Qin Xiaochan suddenly had an idea: "Do you think there is anyone like you who has also traveled from here to there? Like that Bai Taiyue?"
Bai Xuan patted her shoulder and said, "There is no way to find out the truth of history, so don't think too far ahead..." Qin Xiaochan nodded and said she was going to the bathroom.
When she came back, she saw Bai Xuan surrounded by three fashionable and sophisticated girls.
Suddenly, a nameless anger surged up.
“Hey, you guys…!”
"Sorry, my friend is here." Bai Xuan also quickly took the opportunity to get away, pulled Qin Xiaochan and left, leaving the three girls stomping their feet in envy.
Qin Xiaochan frowned and asked, "Who are they?"
"Are you angry?" Bai Xuan said with a smile: "Is this your first time seeing someone approaching you?"
"How can a woman be like this... so shameless." Qin Xiaochan pouted... But you are my brother-in-law, you can't get so close to other women. It is shameless to seduce a married man. Although you are still single here, it doesn't count in my eyes.
She couldn't explain the sudden unhappiness.
Just seeing him standing with other women made me rush over in a fit of rage.
Seeing the little girl still sulking, Bai Xuan said helplessly: "Modern people have different ideas... Would you like a glass of honey snow?"
"Two cups, please!"
"I'll go and buy."
The little girl is easy to deal with, she can be coaxed into submission by giving her some drinks and desserts.
Bai Xuan took a number and lined up.
Qin Xiaochan sat by the roadside and waited patiently, watching the people coming and going on the street.
As a fifteen-year-old girl, she enjoyed such a free and easy atmosphere; but as an emperor, she felt a strong pressure and frustration.
Even if you spend your entire life governing your own country, you will never reach the world here.
He witnessed the peaceful and prosperous times with his own eyes, but could never bring it to his own people. For an emperor whose priority was to govern the people's livelihood, this was a great blow to his self-esteem.
Fortunately, she is only fifteen years old now, and her emotions come and go quickly.
As long as the sky doesn't fall, I can still be carefree and heartless.
She was swinging her legs, and suddenly her eyes flickered to the side, and she caught a glimpse of a middle-aged woman walking past with a child.
Eyes scan, lock, pause, confirm.
Qin Xiaochan stopped swinging her legs happily and stood up.
She thought to herself, no matter how peaceful the world is, there will always be evil people.
……
The middle-aged woman walked forward holding the child on her right hand, at a very fast pace, completely ignoring whether the child beside her could keep up.
The child who was being held by the hand had dull eyes as he followed forward, his saliva dripping down his face without even wiping it.
"It's almost there, it's almost there, don't rush it!"
"I'm doing things, but you still don't trust me, even after all these years..."
The middle-aged woman was talking when someone suddenly patted her shoulder.
"Hello!" A clear female voice came from behind.
She hung up the phone immediately.
The middle-aged woman turned around and saw a pretty girl in Hanfu. She hid the boy behind her and smiled a deceptively gentle and innocent smile. "What can I do for you, little girl?"
"Leave the child here and you can leave." Qin Xiaochan said to the middle-aged woman with her arms folded.
Child trafficking has existed since ancient times, and those caught would definitely be severely punished, but she didn't want to get into trouble and wasn't familiar with the legal system here.
"Little girl, I don't understand what you are saying." The middle-aged woman said with a smile: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first..."
When she turned around, she saw Qin Xiaochan had come behind her, turning a full 180 degrees from the front to the back, without even causing a gust of wind.
"I told you to leave them here and you can go." Qin Xiaochan said, "Don't make me repeat it a third time."
The middle-aged woman's scalp tingled, realizing that this girl was no ordinary person. Her mind raced as she hurriedly said, "Let's go, let's go..."
She loosened one hand and pushed the dazed little boy towards Qin Xiaochan, and with the other hand she reached directly into her pocket and took out a pendant.
There is a bead on the pendant that looks like a black eyeball.
The middle-aged woman spoke: "Little girl, are you very sleepy and tired now?"
When speaking while holding this pitch-black object, it seemed to have its own echo effect, and an invisible spiritual wave spread out.
Qin Xiaochan's eyes became slightly distracted.
But he broke free after a second.
She wanted to step back, but found that the little boy was holding her right leg tightly.
At the same time, the voice came again.
"You are very sleepy and want to rest. Come with me. I will take you to a warm and comfortable place..."
Qin Xiaochan covered her ears, feeling her willpower collapse and a splitting headache.
what is this?
Demonic sound power?
No, it seems to act directly on the soul... My soul happens to be my biggest weakness...
Her soul already had many problems: reverse growth, personality regression, and confused memories... It was obvious that her soul had long been in a mess.
This object that can directly interfere with the soul is disrupting the balance that she has worked so hard to establish in her soul.
Qin Xiaochan clenched her fists. With a splitting headache, she was almost unable to resist the urge to punch.
This punch can definitely wipe the middle-aged woman in front of him off the face of the earth!
Just then, a hand supported her shoulders from behind.
The back of his head also rested against the broad chest.
As the breath approached, the restlessness and headache in the soul dissipated, like a warm breeze blowing, leaving only a faint sense of comfort.
Qin Xiaochan turned around and saw the young man's serious expression.
He handed over two cups of hot drinks: "Here."
Qin Xiaochan took the hot drink and explained in a low voice: "I..."
Bai Xuan raised his hand to signal her not to speak. The young man turned directly to the middle-aged woman and said, "It's really bad luck to run into human traffickers while shopping."
He had no reason to blame the young palace maid. No one could ignore such a heinous crime.
The middle-aged woman's face was extremely grim. She picked up the black eye in her hand and whispered, "Buddha Mother, oh Buddha Mother, I am your devout believer... Listen carefully, you didn't see anything, retreat immediately, retreat immediately..."
She raised the strange pendant in her hand that contained an aura that could not be looked directly at, and thought that she could easily drive away the people around her as before.
But unexpectedly... the moment she raised her pitch-black eyeball to look at the young man, the black eyeball and the young man's eyes met.
click!
The dark eyeball seemed to be under great pressure and immediately cracked and broke into two halves!
