Chapter 423 The Great Wall



"The Mobi Galaxy is technologically advanced, and everyone is powerful. We have interstellar spaceships that can travel between planets. Even someone as powerful as you can wear a mecha and travel between galaxies. There are wormholes that can transmit objects to another planet in a very short time. We can chat and meet at any time on the star network.

But on Blue Star, in ancient China, productivity was low, communication was almost entirely dependent on shouting, and most people had to rely on their own feet to get around. Many people, in their entire lives, had only seen a few places smaller than a school in the galaxy. "From Jiuli City to here, even using the fastest means of transportation, it would still take them half a month to walk."

"How is this possible?" Long Yi couldn't believe it.

"That's why he's the most powerful ancestor in the eyes of the Chinese people. At that time, the customs and habits varied from three miles to ten miles. In other words, from here to Jiuli City, there were probably more than a dozen dialects."

"Dialect? What is this?" Long Yi asked curiously.

"It means the same thing, but different places have different ways of saying it. For example, 'eating' is called 'chafan' in some places, and 'shifan' in others." Gu Can explained patiently.

"This sounds interesting. I really hope to experience all the dialects." said Long Yi.

"That's not easy. The pronunciation, intonation, and vocabulary of each regional dialect vary greatly. Furthermore, some dialects retain ancient vocabulary and grammatical structures. Until the war, China still had fifty-six ethnic groups. Not counting those local dialects, there were fifty-six ethnic languages."

"In such an environment, can he still do what you said?" Long Yi now began to admire this person.

"That's right, so you must remember that his name is Ying Zheng. He unified the six kingdoms and established the Qin Empire. He standardized the wheel gauge, the writing system, and the weights and measures. This series of measures had a profound impact on later generations." Gu Can said with a look of admiration.

She and her parents were able to become so powerful now because of the accumulation of various golden fingers, traveling through so many worlds, and having so much time to study. But the ancestor was not like that. He was the chosen one!

Long Yi was deeply shocked, imagining that under such backward conditions, that human being could accomplish such a great thing.

"Then he must have strong leadership skills, right?" Long Yi asked.

"He is not only strong, he is an unparalleled hero. Moreover, he ordered the creation of Terracotta Warriors to guard the mausoleum. Each statue is lifelike, as if carrying the majesty of the Qin Dynasty's elite soldiers." Gu Can became more and more excited as he spoke.

"It's a pity that we can't see it now." Long Yi also felt a little regretful.

"How could that be? Tomorrow, we will go to build the Great Wall, which is one of the eight wonders of the blue planet!" Gu Can said that this is possible. By telling the history based on the architecture, everyone will feel it more intuitively.

The Chinese language was different from the Galaxy's universal language, so he could only scan it and translate it slowly. Fortunately, the Galaxy's universal language was very similar to the Chinese simplified characters, so Gu Can suggested that he scan the dictionary and upload it first.

Long Yi naturally did exactly as he was told, since he knew nothing anyway.

I have to say that China has a lot of heritage. There are more than a dozen versions of dictionaries uploaded alone.

"Hey, there are guests at home again." Gu Can felt it when he walked outside. When he pushed open the door, a white peacock and a white fox appeared in the yard.

"You're back! It's time for dinner." Ji Xiaoju greeted Gu Can and Long Yi quickly when she saw them standing at the door.

"Well, I'll go wash my hands." Gu Can nodded, walked to the well, and drew water to wash his hands. Long Yi glanced at the two acquaintances, then silently turned around and followed Gu Can, imitating Gu Can's way of drawing water to wash his hands.

The weather was hot, but the water was icy cool and very comfortable. I wanted to soak myself in it.

"When did Dabai and Gouzi come?" Gu Can sat on the stone bench and reached out to touch Peacock's head.

"It fell down not long after you left." Gu Liang returned.

"Long Yi, you can take it away later." Gu Liang said to Long Yi again.

"Okay, teacher."

"Well, let's eat." Gu Liang nodded with satisfaction.

Jiu Mei and Hui Xing cried inwardly. They were both people who could enter, so why were their attitudes so different? At least they could be allowed to transform back into human form. However, at least they were given a fruit each, and the two beasts nibbled on it nearby.

"By the way, Mom and Dad, we talked about the history of the Qin Dynasty today, so tomorrow I will go to the Great Wall and the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang." Gu Can told them his plan.

"Okay, our ancestors have made a significant contribution to history!" Gu Liang and Ji Xiaoju also thought this was a good suggestion.

After dinner, Long Yi took Jiu Mei and Hui Xing to his farmyard.

"Teacher, can they only maintain beast form?" Long Yi thought that after all, they had fought against the Zerg together, so he could still help ask.

"Yeah." Gu Liang nodded, then waved his hand for them to leave quickly.

After saying hello, Long Yi turned and left. Jiu Mei and Hui Xing automatically followed. When they arrived at the Long family's courtyard, their tempers were not so good. They looked around happily.

"Dabai, Gouzi, if you don't sleep, I will throw you out." Gu Can's voice came from afar, and the two had no choice but to stop.

Long Yi raised his eyebrows. If you don't seek death, you won't die. Do you really think that they won't know about it just because we are so close?

The next morning, Gu Can and his family woke up early to prepare. Today they were going to introduce the Great Wall and the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. They solemnly changed into dark Qin Dynasty clothing.

"What are you doing?"
