"Clouds come, rain comes..."
Boom—
The sea of clouds, originally painted fiery red by the setting sun, was instantly replaced by dark clouds. Large raindrops, accompanied by rolling thunder, fell from the sky onto Lin Yan, extinguishing the last glimmer of hope in his heart.
"Disperse."
As soon as he finished speaking, the churning dark clouds in the sky dispersed with the wind.
"Does this prove my identity?"
Lin Yan's expression was priceless.
'System, could you please explain to me what this "summoning wind and rain" means?'
system:'……'
'Host, I swear this is absolutely a normal world; the problem lies with this guy!'
What's wrong?
'I...I can't scan it.'
Lin Yan took a deep breath. This was not the system's fault. He cupped his hands in greeting and said, "I was unaware of Your Majesty's visit. I am truly sorry for not welcoming you properly. Please forgive me."
Yang Bo waved his hand and smiled, revealing the classic Dragon King's upturned lips: "It's alright, it's me who's bothering you."
Lin Yan led Yang Bo into the courtyard:
"Yue'er, make some tea, we have distinguished guests."
The two sat down at the table, and soon a young girl came out of the house carrying a teapot and teacups.
That white porcelain teapot, spanning hundreds of years, appeared during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty.
"Your Excellency Lin Yan, I have been feeling uneasy lately, with a feeling that disaster is about to strike... but after some calculations, I have come up with nothing."
I took a sip of tea.
The taste was really just so-so, but it was much better than the tea brewing of the Tang Dynasty.
"May I ask if you could enlighten me on a few questions?"
Countless thoughts flashed through Lin Yan's mind, the most important being whether he, as a transmigrator, had already been targeted by a powerful being.
"I am just an ordinary citizen."
"Oh? But judging from your aura, you are not an ordinary person. Moreover, when I introduced myself, your reaction clearly showed that you knew me."
Lin Yan: "..."
'This is Journey to the West, for God's sake! I'm just a weakling; what if I say one more word and change the course of the story, and then get caught…'
If his system is an invincible cultivation system, he'll definitely get a piece of the Journey to the West.
However, his system is a knowledge system. Although it can bring him a lot of convenience in life, that is still in life.
Even with his advanced medical skills, intermediate carpentry, and blacksmithing, he was still just a mortal.
Let alone bringing someone back to life and restoring flesh to bones, he couldn't even save someone with a myocardial infarction.
"Your Majesty the Dragon King is too kind. The name of the Jing River Dragon King is too great for me to be unaware of."
Yang Bo nodded naturally:
"Hehe, since you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. It was really abrupt of me to disturb you today."
"It's getting late, so I'll take my leave now. I'll come back to bother you again when I have time."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan's heart stirred, and he immediately tried to persuade the Dragon King to stay, saying, "Your Majesty, why don't you have dinner with me before you leave? A simple meal is all I can offer as a token of my appreciation."
This was the Jinghe Dragon King! Although his death was rather tragic, he was still a high-ranking official in the Jinghe River region. He might not be much to the gods in heaven, but to mortals, he was someone to be looked up to.
"In that case, I'll take my leave."
Just as Yang Bo had predicted, Lin Yan immediately unleashed his most powerful skills.
Hot Pot!
In the Zhenguan era, when even stir-frying was not yet possible, hot pot, this powerful weapon, was a revolutionary force, mainly because the seasonings and broth were truly rare.
Yang Bo enjoyed his meal and drank the distilled and purified liquor.
"Young friend, this food is wonderful. Next time I'll bring you some Sichuan beef tallow hot pot base."
He took out a pack of cigarettes from his backpack, pulled one out and handed it to Lin Yan, who instinctively took it and said thank you.
Then, he suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open, his mouth agape but he couldn't utter a single word.
"Let me introduce myself again. I am Yang Bo, the Dragon King of the Jinghe Dragon King Temple."
Xie Mei smiled.
Lin Yan: "..."
After a moment, he calmed down and plopped down on a stool: "Is there a fire?"
"Have."
He took a windproof lighter out of his backpack and tossed it to him.
"Nothing to say?"
Lin Yan took a deep breath and immediately choked, his face turning red: "I didn't expect my body to be so uncomfortable. Yang Bo... are you also a transmigrator?"
He stubbed out his cigarette after taking a puff.
"That's right, I'm also a time traveler. When I discovered that Empress Zhangsun was still alive, I knew that there were time travelers in this world. Tell me, what is your system?"
"My system? It's kind of a sign-in system. It gives you random things every day, and some good stuff when you sign in weekly, monthly, or yearly. What about yours?"
"Me? I'm just a game system, but I can't level up by fighting monsters."
I picked up the cup on the table and took a sip.
"By the way, your wife is great."
Lin Yan: "???"
Chapter 293 discusses some lighter topics.
"What do you mean?!"
Lin Yan stared at Yang Bo with a serious expression, his hand already reaching for the pistol that the system had rewarded him with at his waist.
"Relax, relax, I'm not Prime Minister Cao. I'm just saying your wife has a good background. Do you know her background?"
"identity?"
Lin Yan looked up at the figure busy inside the house: "She is my wife."
"You're just pretending to be ignorant. How could such a refined young lady come from an ordinary family?"
"did you mean…"
"Li Shimin's daughter, Princess Runan, Li Yue, sigh, you picked up a princess right off the bat, how enviable..."
Lin Yan stood there, stunned, memories of the past flashing through his mind. Suddenly, he thought of someone:
"Old Li...is it Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin?!"
"I don't know who you're talking about, but judging from what you've said, it's probably pretty close. It's normal that you don't recognize Li Shimin because you're too close to the situation to see clearly.
Let alone traveling back to the Tang Dynasty and meeting Li Shimin, even the villagers in modern villages might not be able to recognize the town mayor or the county magistrate.
"Since you are a game system, how strong are you right now?"
How strong?
Yang Bo chuckled softly:
"It can get your system to install Genshin Impact for you."
puff--
Lin Yan finally couldn't hold back any longer: "What did you say?!"
"Just kidding. I can only sense it, and I can't do anything about it right now. But my intuition tells me that it won't be long before I can actually install Genshin Impact on your system."
"Then... how did you travel through time? With your current strength, are you able to go back?"
Yang Bo shook his head slightly.
"Not for now. To go back, I need to have the strength to break through the Multiverse Box. I can barely reach the City Destroyer level now, and under special circumstances, I can reach the Star Destroyer level. I'm still several stops away from surpassing the Multiverse Box."
"Are you involved in online debates?"
"I am not, I am not, don't talk nonsense."
Yang Bo seemed to have been greatly humiliated: "Who's a good person who engages in debates?! This is just a metaphor."
"Ask your system what its limits are? Can it even lead to the Great Luo Primordial Dao?"
Lin Yan: "..."
"Don't even mention proving the Great Luo Dao, it can't even help me reach the Golden Core stage. At most, it can only give me some scientific and technological knowledge."
"Technology is not something that can be achieved simply with knowledge; it requires the corresponding supporting equipment. Even if it gives you the blueprints for a star destroyer and a complete set of materials knowledge, it would probably take you thousands or tens of thousands of years to develop it on your own."
Yang Bo concluded, "Is your system some kind of learning machine from an advanced civilization?"
Just then, Princess Li Yue of Runan came out of the room carrying freshly brewed tea:
"Young Master Lin, have some tea to sober up, this gentleman..."
Lin Yan quickly interrupted his wife:
"You can just call him Mr. Yang."
"Mr. Yang, have some tea to get rid of the smell of alcohol."
Yang Bo nodded to Li Yue: "Thank you, Madam Lin, for your kindness."
He took a first-aid kit out of his backpack and placed it on the table: "Nice to meet you, here's a little gift for you."
Li Yue stared at the medical kit that had appeared out of nowhere for a moment, then waved her hand in refusal, saying, "Sir, this is too valuable; I cannot accept it..."
