Returning after three years of reincarnation in the world of martial arts

Chapter 3 I come from ancient times?
Seeing the girl walking farther and farther, Li Zhongwu was silent for a moment, then turned and walked towards the bar.

Inside the bar were three service staff wearing white cheongsams, and in front of the bar, several customers were checking in.

Li Zhongwu walked closer, frowning as he watched the check-in process of these guests.

He saw the guests each take out a plastic card that seemed to be an ID card, but it was gold in color.

I also saw two of the guests take out banknotes.

but……

It was not the Renminbi that he was familiar with. There were pale gold banknotes with a figure of an emperor wearing a crown printed on the banknotes.

Not the 21st century?

Li Zhongwu watched silently, his eyes startled.

He originally thought that he had returned to China in the 21st century, that he could return to his original life.

However, now it seems that this place seems to be a strange world.

When the previous guest had completed the check-in procedures and passed by Li Zhongwu, Li Zhongwu swayed, seemed to be unable to stand steadily for a while, and almost fell down.

Bumped into this guest who had just checked in.

"Excuse me! Sorry!"

Li Zhongwu quickly apologized in a low voice, took a step back, and apologized to the guest who was bumped.

The man who was bumped was a man in his 40s with a fierce face. He glared at Li Zhongwu and cursed angrily, "Get out! Bad luck! Damn it!"

After scolding, he dragged his suitcase and strode away.

Li Zhongwu didn't scold back, he watched the man leave coldly, and then he turned around and left the inn lobby.

Because he doesn't have the ID card of this world, he can't check in at the bar.

After coming out of the inn lobby, he flipped his right hand, and a stack of golden banknotes appeared in his hand, which he had just "borrowed" from that person by the moment he collided with that person.

With his current skills, it is not difficult to "borrow" something from others without anyone noticing.

Coming to this strange world, he needs some money from this world.

And the middle-aged man had a thick wad of banknotes in his wallet just now, he was obviously a rich man, even if he lost this wad of banknotes, his life should not be affected much.

That being the case, he, Li Zhongwu, "borrowed" it based on his ability.

This is also the main way for him to quickly earn his first pot of gold in the world of martial arts in the past few years.

After all, every time he went to a new martial arts world, he had to complete the main quest as soon as possible within the specified time, and if he had extra time, he had to try to complete a few more side quests.

You can't waste your precious time on trivial things like making money.

The stack of banknotes in his hand are all in face value of 100. What caught Li Zhongwu's attention is that the unit after 100 is not "Yuan" but "Gold".

100 Gold?
The gold banknote unit is "gold"?
What is the purchasing power of this 100 gold?Just "borrowed" this stack of banknotes, how much is it worth?
Li Zhongwu frowned and looked at it for a moment, then turned his palm again, and the money in his hand disappeared, and he put it in his portable space.

Then he stepped into the wind and rain outside the inn, walked along the building of the inn, turned a corner, and came to the back of the building.

On a rainy night, there are no people around.

He looked around and saw that there was no one nearby, so he looked up at the windows at the back of the building.

Some windows were lit with lights, and some windows were dark with no lights on, so no one should be staying.

He suddenly moved, rushed to the vicinity of the building, used lightness kung fu, jumped up to the window sill on the second floor, kicked on the window sill with his right foot, continued to raise his body a few meters, and jumped onto the window sill on the third floor. With a kick on the window sill on the third floor, he raised his body a few meters again and jumped onto the window sill on the fourth floor.

Squatting on the window sill on the fourth floor, he saw that the window was not closed tightly, so he reached out to open the window and stepped into the room inside the window.

There was no light on in this room, it was very quiet and no one was staying.

After Li Zhongwu entered this room, he walked around and checked it out, and found that the room in this inn was similar in style to a hotel room in the 21st century.

Sure enough, there is a shower room.

He walked into the shower room and tried to turn on the shower switch, and the rushing water column appeared immediately.

He reached out to touch the water column, and it was all cold water.

However, less than 1 minute later, the temperature of the water column began to rise and turned into hot water.

It's convenient for him to take a shower here without a room card.

He didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately began to take off his soaked clothes and shoes.

Moments later, he stood naked under the shower faucet and started rinsing.

He is about 1.7 meters five, neither tall nor short.

But the body is beautiful.

He has exchanged many kinds of martial arts in the main god space, and his streamlined muscles look strong, and he can't see any fat.

Although he has been fighting in the world of martial arts in the past few years, there are not many scars on his body.

Some serious injuries had already been healed by him in the main god's space with points, and the wounds healed by the healing light of the main god's space would not leave scars.

After a few minutes, he rinses off.

Put on a clean black suit and come out of the shower in slippers.

He likes black, even the shirt inside the suit is black.

He no longer wears vintage clothes.

Since this is a modern world, and since he saw people wearing suits and Chinese tunic suits when he was in the lobby on the first floor, in order to integrate into this strange world as soon as possible, he naturally tried to dress like an aborigine of this era.

It's just that the hair is a bit long.

He has shawl-length hair, which he raised little by little in recent years.

reason?

Because most of the martial arts worlds he went to in the past few years were in the Ming and Qing Dynasties and the Republic of China. In those times, if he didn't want to look dazzling, then it would be good to have long hair with shawls.

Even if he occasionally goes to a modern or future world, his shawl and long hair is tied into a ponytail. Although he seems a bit independent, he will not appear out of tune with the general environment.

At this time, Li Zhongwu came out of the shower room, and while wiping the water stains on his hair with a dry towel, he went to the bed and sat down.

Reach out and turn on the bedside lamp.

He turned his left hand, and the stack of "borrowed" golden banknotes appeared in his hand again.

With the light of the bedside lamp, he squinted to examine the money in his hand.

This is a stack of large denomination banknotes, all of which are 100 denominations.

A golden dragon chair is printed on the banknote, and on the dragon chair sits the image of an emperor wearing a crown.

And on the lower edge of the banknote, there is a line of small characters printed - Issued by the Household Bank of the Dayan Dynasty.

"The Great Yan Dynasty?"

Li Zhongwu whispered to himself.

This stack of banknotes is estimated to be about seven or eight thousand.

Just don't know what the purchasing power of the money is.

It is estimated that no matter how low the purchasing power of this banknote is, it should be no problem to feed him for a few days.

He flipped over with his left hand, and the money in his hand was put into the portable space again, and his eyes began to look around the bedroom.

He saw a television set hanging on the wall.

It appears to be an LCD TV.

——Could this be the parallel time and space of China in the 21st century?
This guess flashed through Li Zhongwu's mind.

He saw the remote control on the TV cabinet, so he got up and walked over, brought the remote control, and tried to turn on the TV.

After a while, he successfully turned on the TV.

There is an ad on TV and he changes the channel immediately.

This time it's a cartoon.

But it wasn't any cartoon he had seen in his memory.

After a few glances, he continued to switch channels.

This time it was a TV series, an action movie in ancient costumes, and two men in ancient costumes were fighting.

One holds a sword and the other holds a knife.

But the moves of these two people are very simple. The man holding the sword keeps stabbing straight. It is obvious that he is holding a sword in the style of an ancient Chinese sword, but the swordsmanship used is very similar to Western fencing.

The knife method used by the man with the knife has not changed much, mainly chopping and chopping.

The fight between the two on TV was very fierce and dangerous.

It's just that the moves are so crude that Li Zhongwu frowned.

After watching for a while, he changed the channel again. After changing the TV station more than a dozen times in a row, a talk show suddenly appeared on the TV.

On the TV screen, a long-faced beauty with big wavy hair and a little old man in his 60s were sitting opposite each other. Both of them were sitting on a single sofa.

There are a few golden words in the lower right corner of the TV screen, which should be the name of the program - "Secrets of the Ancients"

The word "ancient" aroused Li Zhongwu's curiosity.

——What was the ancient times of this world like?
On the TV, the hostess held the microphone and asked with a smile: "Professor Jin, you just said that in the tomb you recently excavated, you found a secret book of ancient boxing techniques. Can you still recognize the name of the boxing technique?"

The TV camera scanned the faces of the audience on the show, and the faces of each young audience showed curiosity.

The camera showed the little old man being interviewed again.

The gray-haired little old man smiled and said: "Yes! We did find a secret book in the tomb we recently excavated. When we found it, it looked intact, and the name on the cover was still intact. I can recognize it, but, as we all know, once the ancient tomb is opened, the contents inside will soon undergo oxidation reaction, so we only know the name on the cover of the secret book, and the contents inside have not yet waited. We flipped through it, and that secret book would soon rot, and we couldn’t read it.”

When the hostess heard this, she couldn't help leaning her upper body forward slightly, and asked curiously, "Professor Jin, what is the word on the cover of the secret book?"

Professor Jin smiled, "Tai Chi!"

After he finished speaking, he paused, and added: "If we're not mistaken, it should be the three words 'Tai Chi'."

"Tai Chi?"

The hostess opened her eyes wide in surprise.

The hundreds of young viewers at the show were in an uproar.

But Li Zhongwu in front of the TV was stunned.

Taijiquan secrets unearthed in ancient tombs?
Antiquity?

Is this show serious?

Are you sure Tai Chi is ancient?
While he was stunned, the interview on TV was still going on.

The hostess opened her mouth in surprise, and asked hesitantly, "Professor Jin, the secret book your team discovered is really Tai Chi?"

Professor Jin nodded with a smile.

The hostess asked: "Is the content in the secret book really hard to see because of oxidation?"

Professor Jin nodded again.

The audience at the show let out a sigh of regret.

The hostess patted her thigh and said regretfully: "That's a pity! As far as I know, our country has learned from archaeological excavations of other tombs over the years that there were several extremely powerful tombs in our country. Boxing, such as Taijiquan, Xingyiquan, Bajiquan, etc., but so far, we still have not discovered a complete boxing manual. No one knows what kind of effect these boxing techniques produce. Professor Jin It’s such a pity that your team found a rare Taijiquan secret book this time, and it oxidized quickly! Alas! What a pity!”

"Yes, all of us feel it's a pity!" Professor Jin nodded in agreement.

……

Li Zhongwu stared blankly at the interview on TV, feeling as if a turbulent sea had set off in his heart.

——Taijiquan, Bajiquan, Xingyiquan... are they all ancient boxing techniques?

I used to live in ancient times?
