Chapter 9: Confessing My Travels to My Father
In the middle of the night.
Lin Kucan and his wife slept in the back half of the room separated from the main hall. Since there was only half a room, there was no extra space except for a bed and a few cabinets.
The Lin family lived in the east wing, not the main courtyard, so the house was not big, only about 15 square meters, and it was a stretch to divide it into two.
The eldest Lin family slept in the east room, and the second Lin family slept in the west room, so they didn't disturb each other.
Lin Sanqi could only temporarily sleep on the floor in the main hall.
Fortunately, it is already the end of June and the weather has turned warmer. Otherwise, if I had to sleep on the ground in the northern winter, I would have been frozen into popsicles.
Lin Sanqi is a modern man. Although his family conditions were average since he was a child, he has never suffered any hardship. Now if he lies on the ground, the hardness of the stone slab will make his whole body ache, so he can't sleep.
In addition, he only had two steamed buns for dinner, and his stomach was growling with hunger. There was no takeout or instant noodles, so Lin Sanqi was starving.
Sitting in the darkness, Lin Sanqi was still very depressed.
Traveling through time was not what he wanted at all, and he traveled to this strange era. Although he was lucky enough to have found a relative, he was still an outsider to Lin Sanqi.
Lin Sanqi felt indescribably irritated when he thought about living in this red era in the future, without a mobile phone or the Internet, where it was said that even shouting "beautiful girl" on the street could get you taken to the police station.
Hearing bursts of snoring coming from inside the house, Lin Sanqi quietly opened the door and prepared to go to the yard to get some fresh air.
But what I was thinking was, I wish I could travel back to 2013.
As a result, when the door opened, Lin Sanqi was stunned to find that the scene outside the door was not the courtyard he had expected, but the system space he had seen before.
This made Lin Sanqi very excited. The reappearance of the system space also meant that he could go back to the past.
Lin Sanqi quietly walked into the space, closed the door behind him, and then ran through the huge space as fast as he could to the door opposite. He held his breath and kept repeating in his heart:
“Ancestors, Lord, and Mazu, please bless me and let me go back!”
Then he decisively turned the doorknob. When the door opened, what came into view was indeed the room that Lin Sanqi was familiar with.
In the room, the air conditioner was on and the temperature had dropped, but the live broadcast of a football match on his computer before he took a shower was still going on.
After all, having been influenced by online novels for many years and as a college student with a high IQ, Lin Sanqi immediately came up with a bold guess.
So he immediately turned around and went back to the other door. He gently opened it a crack and saw the floor mat in the main hall of the courtyard in 1959.
Now Lin Sanqi understood that he had indeed traveled through time before, and it was a "double travel".
That is, you can travel freely between 1959 and 2013 through the two doors and the system space in the middle.
And as expected, when you are in one era, time in another era becomes very slow.
To figure out how slow it is, Lin Sanqi decided to experiment with it later. Judging from the time he had traveled through before, it should be one hour for one era and one day for another.
Knowing that he had the "golden finger" for double penetration, Lin Sanqi sat on his bed and began to think.
In online novels, anyone who can travel through time either goes back to the Ming Dynasty to become a prince, or goes to a post-apocalyptic wasteland to fight zombies. The luckier ones can even travel to a world of immortal cultivation and become an emperor.
But without exception, every time traveler eventually became a winner in life. Even if they did not become the richest man in the world, at least they had their childhood sweetheart.
But what can I do if I travel back to the glorious era of 1959?
Since you have the golden finger, it is equivalent to an internet celebrity having traffic, so you have to find a way to "monetize the traffic."
I don’t have to talk about becoming rich, but at least make sure your family has enough food and clothing, and don’t be too reluctant to turn on the air conditioner.
Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi quickly picked up his mobile phone and searched Baidu for 1959, then swallowed his saliva. He felt that if he spoke without thinking, he would probably have a hard time keeping his life in that era, let alone making a fortune.
Just when he was daydreaming, Lin Musen knocked on the door and came in.
Seeing his son sitting there stupidly, Lin Musen felt bad. After all, he was his own son. If he didn't feel sorry for him, who would?
"Son, son?"
"Dad, what's going on?"
Lin Musen took out a bank card from his pocket and said with a smile:
"Son, here's 20,000 yuan. It's a good time for you to go traveling and relax before you start working. I saw Lijiang, Qingdao, and Sanya on TV. The scenery there is so beautiful, maybe there will be a romantic encounter. It's better to go out and travel than to stay at home."
"Wow, so much money?"
Lin Sanqi was a little surprised. The Lin family usually lived a very frugal life. They never went out for a trip or a meal as a family, just to save money.
Now my father took out 20,000 yuan in one go, which is probably the last savings of the family.
Lin Sanqi felt a little ashamed, but he immediately realized that since he could do double penetration, there must be a way to make a profit from it, but he just couldn't think of it. After all, his father was an old hand, what if he could think of it?
Lin Sanqi stood up, glanced outside the door, then locked the door and said softly:
"Dad, let me tell you something. You have to believe me. I'm definitely not going insane or having a mental breakdown because of a breakup."
"Hmm, huh?"
Seeing his son acting suspiciously, Lin Musen became curious about what his son was up to.
Lin Sanqi continued mysteriously:
"Dad, let me tell you, I discovered a special ability today. I can pass through this bathroom door and travel back to 1959. Then I can come back to the present world at any time. Dad, do you understand? Don't just blink and say nothing."
Lin Musen looked at the ordinary, unremarkable, even slightly peeling wooden door, and then looked at his son:
"Ah, ah! You can travel through time, well, that's good, but what does this travel through time mean?"
Lin Sanqi thought of the TVB Hong Kong dramas he watched with his family when he was a child, and explained:
"Do you remember the Hong Kong TV series 'A Step into the Past'? We watched it together. Louis Koo played the role of a time traveler. But mine is even more powerful. I can travel back and forth, any way I want."
When it comes to "A Step into the Past", you will know Lin Musen. Huadu is close to Hong Kong, so whatever is broadcast on TV there will be transmitted here first. Moreover, everyone speaks Cantonese, and there is no need for Mandarin translation.
"Son, are you saying you can travel through time too? And to 1959? And can you come back after you go there?"
"Yeah, Dad!"
