Tomb Raiders I Can Hear Antique Talk

"I planted the concept of time travel in your mind. Hey, with this expression on your face, you must be asking me, 'Second uncle, how do you keep planting it for me? How do you seal up those memories of mine? What?' No hurry, no hurry, let's put this article later and tell you about me first.

"Some of what you hear next may be a bit unbelievable, but my second uncle promises that this time I am definitely not teasing you, nor will I lie to you. You have to believe me.

"Also, don't stare at me like that!"

After the second uncle said this, he slowly took off his gloves and slapped Xiao Ran hard on the head.Xiao Ran was unable to dodge and resist, and was so slapped that he lowered his head.

"Hey! This gesture is much more polite. In terms of time, the world I came from was about thirty years later than this? Yes, thirty years later.

"Spatially speaking, it's barely a parallel world. Do you understand parallel worlds? You don't understand. What do you know? Look, they are two parallel lines, almost the same in length, but they do not intersect each other and extend separately. Look , I still have to add some math knowledge to you..."

The second uncle said, using a dead branch to draw two lines in front of Xiao Ran's eyes.

"My world was very careless. People like me, who knew everything, were full of ambition and wisdom, were shunned and looked down upon by others, but those who were good at flattering and being good people were able to climb up. Rely on yourself Even with a little education, a little background, and a little money, he felt he was superior and arrogant towards me.

"Yes, they have this and that, but I have also been learning knowledge, whether it is short videos or public accounts, whether it is nature or humanities, I know as much as they do. Before I came to this world, I was still learning a lot I have been reading novels on novel websites for more than ten years, but they don’t understand many of the philosophies of life I learned there. I am destined to do a great career and become a master, so why do they dare to look down on me?!"

The second uncle became more and more excited as he talked. He used the branch in his hand to knock the amber fragments on the side loudly.But when he lowered his head and saw Xiao Ran's confused eyes, he suddenly calmed down and showed a playful smile.

"Oh, by the way, you don't understand short videos, public accounts, etc., right? There are also websites, which are not scrap stations that collect broken fishing nets. I haven't told you about these, but don't worry, you won't touch them again. When it comes, it makes no difference whether you know it or not.

"I'm going too far, let me talk about myself. Those ordinary people are nothing in my eyes. They look down on me, and I still look down on them. But God also went against me and caused me to have a car accident. I was on the verge of death. At that moment, I still felt that God was unfair. My ambition died before I had a chance to realize it. I was not willing to accept it.

"But when I woke up, I found that I had entered another world. In this world, my cheap parents named me Xiao Ran..."

Hearing this, the second uncle's face showed a slightly crazy and angry smile, and he once again raised his gloves and threw them at Xiao Ran's face.

Xiao Ran's face instantly became red and swollen, and there was a hint of blood in his mouth.He gritted his teeth feebly and said: "You... are crazy... aren't you Xiao... Changkong? I am... Xiao Ran..."

The second uncle snorted coldly and said with a smile: "Niece, what! Interrupt me again, be careful I interrupt your hands and feet, something exciting is about to come later.

"When I first came to this world, I carried my previous memories with me. I was so excited when I thought that I was still alive and had traveled through time. When I was less than a year old, my speaking muscles had just grown, and I could speak a lot skillfully. But my... now I should say your stupid dad was so frightened that he asked a doctor and a dance master secretly. Only then did I realize that I was too anxious, so I used an exorcism to pretend I would cry out of fear and then pretend to be asleep. When I got up, I would start pretending that I didn't understand anything, and then I was fooled.

"When I got older and talking was no longer strange, I began to understand the world intentionally or unintentionally. I found that the world was like the 60s of the last century. It was boring, so boring! But I could actually hear it. Antiques speak for themselves, and I was born into a family of antique shops and grew up in Panjiayuan. Isn’t this my chosen destiny, making me as rich as anyone else?

"I once had the experience of being treated as a monster. I learned a lot. I started to 'learn' through fake imitation, and then showed my abilities bit by bit, making both the old man of the Xiao family and your stupid father think I was talented. Extraordinary.

"When I was in my twenties, under the arrangement of Mr. Xiao, I took over the family business and soon became the number one in Panjiayuan, Zhaojing and even the country in the antique shop. Many businessmen from Hong Kong and Taiwan and foreigners all regard me as an expert.

"During that time, I lived a very nourishing life. What delicacies from mountains and seas have I not tasted? What kind of foreign girls and beauties have I not played with? But I am not one of those losers who only know how to spend time and debauch. I have bigger plans.

"You may not know that in the next few decades, many things that you can't do now or even think about will become serious businesses. I will take advantage of this time to accumulate capital and become the richest man in the country or even the world in the future! Hahaha... …”

The second uncle - or another Xiao Ran - was elated when he said this, and even couldn't help but laugh proudly.Xiao Ran looked at this half-mad and half-mad man, and suddenly felt a trace of disgust in his pity.

But the second uncle laughed at the end, but suddenly became cold. He gritted his teeth and asked Xiao Ran: "Guess what happened next?"

Xiao Ran was silent and just looked at his second uncle expressionlessly.Unexpectedly, the second uncle suddenly raised his eyebrows and raised his foot to kick him squarely in the face.This kick was neither light nor heavy, and would not make him faint, but it still made him see stars, and his nose felt sore and pungent, and then he spurted out nosebleeds.

The second uncle pulled the other collars to him and shouted: "I'm asking you something, why don't you answer it? And did I say, don't stare at me like that?!"

Xiao Ran, feeling dizzy, replied: "Don't you... don't let me interrupt..." "Oh, are you waiting for me here? Be good!" After that, the second uncle slapped him hard on the face again. A few slaps, "When I ask you something, you have to say it."

The second uncle let go of his hand, and Xiao Ran returned to his limp kneeling position.

"One day, I was drinking whiskey with my arms around a foreign girl, thinking about where to buy the next piece of land. But suddenly the sky and the earth changed color, the sun and the moon went dark, and the whole world stopped, from the original colorful to gray. A vortex Appeared out of nowhere and sucked the whole world into it, including me.

"When I wake up again... I'll tell you this later. In short, after some strange things happened, I found that I was in the delivery room of the hospital and became a baby with weak hands and feet. Your stupid dad showed up again. , said that I was his son and named him Xiao Ran. Didn’t you expect that? Not only did I travel through time, but I was also reborn after traveling through time!"

When Xiao Ran heard this, his original surprise turned into disbelief. He even believed that this second uncle was talking nonsense.Forget about traveling through time and being reborn?Reincarnation in the same place?

"You...must be...crazy..." Xiao Ran said.

Seeing Xiao Ran looking at him like a mental patient, the second uncle suppressed his smile, stood up slowly, and walked around Xiao Ran: "Crazy? I thought I was crazy at first, until I shouted a vague sentence in the delivery room 'Impossible', the nurse was so frightened that she dropped me on the table and broke my thigh. Only then did I realize that this excruciating pain was neither crazy nor...a dream!"

After saying the last word, the second uncle suddenly drew his sword and waved it several times.What followed was a pain and numbness that made Xiao Ran doubt his life and rushed through his body. His hand and hamstrings snapped and he fell to the ground groaning in pain.

It was only then that the blood vessels seemed to have just reacted, and blood gurgled out of the wound.

The second uncle took back the knife, sat back on the amber fragments, raised his foot and nodded Xiao Ran's face: "I told you, don't interrupt me, or I will break your hands and feet. Your second uncle, I used to tease you all the time, but why? Today I just want to keep my word. Where did I say it? Oh yes... rebirth."

Xiao Ran no longer responded, but just stared at his second uncle sideways. He felt blood oozing out from between his teeth, and there was a fishy rusty taste in his mouth.

The second uncle cleared his throat and continued: "When I grew up, I found that some of the memories about the last time were lost, but generally it had no impact. I still followed the previous method and pretended not to understand anything. Yes, I will show my abilities a little bit more. The experience this time is slightly different from the last time, but it is similar. However, I guess that my plan is too unpredictable, and God will not allow me to do it again.

"So this time, I learned my lesson and kept a low profile. Sometimes I deliberately missed some things, making everyone think that I only rely on luck and experience, and mainly just hang out with Panjiayuan to survive. Zhaojing and surrounding areas. I didn’t dare to squander the money I earned like before. Some of it was exchanged for gold on the black market and kept, and some of it was used to donate to charity.

"Don't tell me, in retrospect, I lived the most secure life that time, and even married a wife. I originally thought there would be no problem this time, right? But it's the same damn day as last time, and I'm at home While eating hot pot and singing songs, I suddenly encountered the twisted scene of that world again. Then as expected, I entered the delivery room again, and your father's annoying face came up to me again and asked me to call him dad! What the hell? It’s his dad!”

The second uncle said, increasing the force on his feet. Xiao Ran was dizzy from being stepped on.It seems that the second uncle is not willing to take revenge on the Son of Man, and wants to take revenge on him.

After venting enough, the second uncle continued: "The third time, the third time, this time I was thinking whether this God really advocates peace and quiet, so I simply gave up business and studied literature. He had the ability to listen to antiques talk, studied archeology with your father, and joined Professor Chen like your father. It was only this time that I realized where I had traveled through time.

"Professor Chen, I really didn't know which Professor Chen he was at first. The first time I met him, I heard him and your father mysteriously talking about 'Jing Jue', and I thought I was being misunderstood. It wasn't until the next few days when I officially went to his class, and people like Hao Aiguo, Sa Dipeng, Chu Jian, and Ye Yixin appeared one after another, that I knew whether my time travel was actually in a book or something. One of my most familiar books!

"Now I understand, the reason why I dare to love is because I am not connected to the main thread of this world, so I can only be reborn again and again inexplicably. But this way, I am even more energetic. I love this golden captain to death world.

"So I studied carefully and waited patiently until Shirley Yang, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan came. I also relied on my familiarity with the plot to become the core figure of the gold-finding team.

"I give them advice, I help them cure their curse, and I help them get rich and make money. I thought that I have entered the main line of the story, and I have joined the protagonist team, so everything will be fine, right? I also cooperated with Da Jinya , to expand the antique business again, and asked Shirley Yang to help me expand the business abroad.

"I deliberately chose the day of my previous rebirths and asked them to join me in cutting the ribbon for the opening of the newly established company. But the scissors haven't touched the red silk yet. Damn it, I'm reborn again. Got it!"

When the second uncle said this, he suddenly stood up and jumped on the spot angrily and stamped his feet.The rising dust made Xiao Ran close his eyes. Judging from all the previous experiences, the stories and emotions of the people in front of him, he almost believed that it was all true.

This second uncle is another Xiao Ran, a Xiao Ran who has experienced everything he has experienced and repeated it many times.

But if he is Xiao Ran, who is he?
