Chapter 505: Intertwined Worlds
Lu Yao looked at the cup handed to him.
This is a very normal straight glass cup, and the transparent liquid inside is still steaming.
The so-called medicine is also two red capsules.
Lu Yao put down the cup and looked at the woman: "Who are you?"
"My dear, I am your wife."
A trace of sadness appeared on the woman's face: "Have you forgotten me again? It's just a dream... Alas, my husband, you are getting sicker and sicker."
She looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with skin as smooth as white porcelain, a hint of resentment between her eyebrows, and she spoke in a soft voice, giving people a lovable feeling.
The woman who claimed to be his wife looked very unfamiliar.
Lu Yao said calmly: "You said I was your husband, what is your name and what is my name?"
"My lord, your name is Huang Jia, your courtesy name is Li Shi, and my name is Hua Tiao'er."
"How did we meet?"
"My dear, don't you remember? We met at Xijing University. You were at the Institute of Gewu and I was at Jiaofang. At the celebration ceremony of the University, I performed a dance and you gave me a bouquet of flowers and exchanged visiting cards with me."
After Lu Yao asked further, he finally understood.
Huang Jia, who he transformed into, was married to Hua Tiao'er in this world. He and Hua Tiao'er met when they were studying at the university. In modern terms, Huang Jia studied science and engineering, while Hua Tiao'er was an artistic dance student.
Huang Jia and Hua Tiaoer met during the university anniversary celebration.
The so-called visiting card is a business card with a telephone number.
Lu Yao picked up the wooden mobile phone beside the bed and looked at it carefully from front to back.
This is a very simple wooden box, the size of a palm, without the familiar manufacturer logos, no number buttons, only wooden cards similar to SIM cards inserted. Lu Yao has not yet figured out how to use this thing.
"Husband, take your medicine."
"I'm not sick."
"Patients always say this: You won't get better if you don't take medicine."
Lu Yao asked her: "What disease do I have?"
"Yellow Millet Syndrome."
In this world, the so-called Huangliang syndrome is to believe everything that happens in dreams and fantasies, and confuse reality with dreams.
Lu Yao was very sure that he was normal.
It's this world that has the problem.
Because he could clearly sense that there was a timer counting down above his head.
【359 hours: 27 minutes: 15 seconds】
It only takes about fifteen days.
This is the time limit that Lu Yao can stay in this world.
"Sir, please stop saying that you are a god from heaven... If you are discovered by the police, they will capture you and either send you to the Huangliang Tower or to the front line. That would be a disaster."
Hua Tiaoer said with a serious face.
“…”
Lu Yao said instead: "I'm going out for a walk."
"I will go with you, sir, to prevent you from making mistakes again." Hua Tiao'er opened her arms and said firmly, "Otherwise, I will never let you go out."
Although she looked weak, she had a firm aura when she said this.
"good."
After Lu Yao got up, he felt that there was nothing wrong with his body. His hands and feet were flexible and strong, and his five senses were clear. Huang Jia was in good condition, and his blood volume was not damaged.
But for some reason, he couldn't see through Hua Tiao'er's true intentions, nor could he use the boundary chain, or activate the fire of faith and miracles.
Apart from Huang Jia's incredibly strong body, Lu Yao now has no other powers that surpass those of ordinary people.
In the bathroom.
Lu Yao looked at the mirror on the washstand.
The mirror reflected Huang Jia's appearance, with thick eyebrows, angry eyes, tangled beard, and very strong muscles on his collar, neck and shoulder blades.
While washing his face, he noticed the toothpaste box next to him.
I turned it over and saw this written on the box.
"Gui's Tooth Medicine for Whitening Teeth"
Although they are all modern objects, they retain semi-vernacular language that is close to ancient customs.
Lu Yao wiped his face roughly, put on a short shirt and leather jacket, and went out with Hua Tiaoer.
Only then did he realize that he lived in a house similar to a large flat. The surrounding environment was quite quiet and there were not many people.
This huge gated community is called Lanruofang.
Most of the people living in Lanruofang are monks. They all have shaved heads, wear Buddhist beads around their necks or hold prayer beads in their hands, but most of them are dressed casually.
Some monks wore stiff coats similar to suits, some wore robes, some wore long gowns, some wore leather armor and jackets, and some were simply shirtless.
The monks who came and went had peaceful expressions on their faces and seemed to be living a good life.
It was much noisier outside Lanruofang. There were cars speeding past, bicycles with large and narrow wheels, and buses that looked like public buses. At least that was what Lu Yao saw through the fence.
Hua Tiao'er advised, "My husband, why don't you just take a walk in Lanruofang? It's too noisy outside, which is not conducive to recovery."
Lu Yao decided to familiarize himself with the environment first, so he agreed.
Apart from the writing and language habits, Lanruofang is no different from a modern residential area. It has everything it should have, even an elevator.
The characters here are all in unified traditional Chinese. Many words still use some ancient expressions and styles, but some words are no different from modern ones.
For example, going to the toilet is called "rugong" and outside the public toilet in Lanruofang there is a sign saying "chugong rujing".
Garbage is also called garbage, and there is garbage classification here, including abandoned ash (waste paper and waste materials), filth (kitchen waste and other wet garbage with odor), porcelain broken pieces (recyclable garbage), etc.
The department in charge of sanitation here is called the "Street Bureau", and the sanitation workers are called "road soldiers". Their work includes sanitation maintenance and prohibiting the occupation of roads for business.
If you close your eyes and rely on sounds and words to identify, you will think you are in ancient times.
But from a visual perspective, this is a completely modern social world.
"Husband, the clouds are gathering. It might rain today. Let's go back." Hua Tiaoer's words interrupted Lu Yao's observation and thoughts.
Lu Yao asked in a low voice: "Is the emperor still here?"
"My lord, you are joking. His Majesty is here, of course. He is busy in the palace every day."
It turns out to be a world with an emperor.
The emperor and modernization...the combination of these two elements made Lu Yao feel even more magical.
On his way back, Lu Yao noticed that many monks smiled and nodded at him. After their eyes met, the monks would put their hands together and whisper "Amitabha".
Hua Tiaoer said that it was because Lu Yao had discussed Buddhism with the monks before, and everyone was familiar with each other.
…
For the next two days, Lu Yaobai walked around Lanruofang, and Hua Touer accompanied him closely.
Lu Yao firmly refused to take the medicine. Hua Tiaoer just sighed and did not make things difficult for him. She just asked him to rest more and recover soon.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After spending two days, Lu Yao had a certain understanding of the world.
This is a country called Qin, which has a vast territory stretching from the Mediterranean Sea in the west to the Bering Sea in the east. It has lasted for more than a thousand years since its establishment, and now it is the 1779th year of the Qin calendar.
Lu Yao finally understood where that inexplicably familiar yet strange feeling came from.
Because in this world, Chinese history is exactly the same as the early history of the Earth, with records of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, and all the differences occurred after Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms.
Unlike the course of Earth's history, in this virtual world line, Qin Shihuang did not die in the sand dunes.
Not only that, Qin Shihuang also accomplished unprecedented hegemony by turning the imperial power granted by heaven into the imperial divine power.
He announced to the whole country that all gods within the Qin Empire were being recruited. If they resisted the recruitment, it would be regarded as disobedience and they were prohibited from appearing on the territory of the Qin Empire. Otherwise, they would be arrested and imprisoned.
The gods were no longer high and mighty, but gradually became known to the people.
Many gods accepted the empire's call and became the empire's loyal ministers and military generals.
Qin Shi Huang drove the Terracotta Army to conquer the outer world, and the gods became marshals, generals and captains accompanying him. The Qin army conquered many outer worlds, and the expedition is still going on.
On the ground, Prince Fusu became the second emperor of Qin, and the dynasty has continued from generation to generation to this day.
The Qin Empire established its position as a world hegemon very early, absorbing young talents from all over Asia, Africa and Europe, maintaining absolute leadership in economy, culture and technology. With a powerful army centered on gods, the country has always been relatively stable.
The technological level of the entire Qin State - or the entire world - is mysterious.
There is relatively sound industrial capacity here, with factories, machinery, railways, cars, and mobile phones, but it has not entered the intelligent information age.
It is worth mentioning that the mobile phone here is called [Shunfenger].
Insert a friend's visiting card, which is a special piece of wood, into Shunfenger's chat box and dial the number by knocking on it.
It's like knocking on the door, the other party can hear it and then talk to each other. It's magical.
The Qin State borrowed the power of gods, causing the technology tree to skip stages in many areas.
However, in this world where gods are no longer secrets and legends, gods are now forbidden to move freely in the secular world to avoid affecting the normal life order of people.
This is a place where gods need to be reported and restricted.
According to Huatiaoer.
"...Sir, you must not claim that you are a god descended from the earth, otherwise the police will not only interrogate you, but the Guards will also come."
"Besides, my husband, you are not a god at all. You don't know magic, nor can you call the wind and rain. Why bother to cause such trouble?"
The Guard Bureau is equivalent to the committee of this world.
What Hua Tiaoer said is true.
Lu Yao really can't use miracles here.
"No."
This made Hua Tiaoer breathe a sigh of relief. She smiled and said, "My husband, it's good that you have figured it out. I know that when you study things to a high level, it will always be related to the gods and ghosts, but my husband and I have agreed in private that it's okay, but don't tell others about it... You stayed in Huangliang Tower for a while before, and you were in a coma for a year. I was very worried."
Huangliang Tower is a mental hospital outside.
Not long ago, Lu Yao was sent back after receiving treatment there.
"Do you know Xu Xiake?"
This name made Hua Tiaoer startled: "I don't know who this gentleman is?"
…
Nightfall.
The little girl next to him breathed softly.
But Lu Yao couldn't sleep.
He kept thinking in his mind, why did Xu Xiake mark this Qin Empire in a different timeline? In Xu Xiake's eyes, this place has extraordinary value, comparable to the Waiwanqu Kingdom with Lunbozhou.
Not only that, the entry threshold is so high that it requires 15 million fires of faith.
What was in this place that seemed like a large paradise? Just as he was in a daze, he suddenly realized that the person beside him was gone.
Lu Yao was still a little groggy.
He noticed that he was in a coma, but this state disappeared quickly.
Fortunately, we have the Yellow Turban Warrior's [Advanced Immunity].
There was a sound outside the closed bedroom door.
Lu Yao got out of bed barefoot and carefully. There was light on in the living room outside.
There was a faint sound from outside the door.
"Doctor Zhou, is it really necessary to bring my husband to Huangliang Tower again? He has recovered very well and is no longer talking nonsense. He can recover at home. Can we not let him go there..." Hua Tiaoer requested in a low voice.
"According to the rules of the Guardian Bureau, the follow-up examination must be conducted in Huangliang Tower, which will take ten days. Madam, please rest assured that if Huang Lishi really recovers, he will be allowed to go home after ten days. We at the Dian Pharmacy will also focus on observation."
"well……"
Lu Yao was excited after hearing this.
Great! Go to the mental hospital! It gathers people like me there, it's a natural information center.
Maybe you can find other players there!
