I was a god in the 18th century

The sun was at its peak, after breakfast, everything was ready. Xia Qingdai's journey to the "Lotus House RV" in the 18th century is about to begin.

The last time she went to London, Xia Qingdai basically didn't go with her, but Owen kept rushing down there to open the map, and even encountered a snowstorm.

This time the college entrance examination was over. She had modified the Lotus Tower carriage and was traveling leisurely in the RV. You should appreciate the scenery along the way, walk, see and play, and feel the exotic customs of the 18th century.

This time everyone went out, leaving only servants in Fucui Villa and Wanghe Villa.

With David, the butler, in charge of the house, Owen felt relieved. On the trip, he brought with him the groom Andrew and the coachman Sherred, as well as two personal servants, a man and a woman.

The off-road vehicle opened the road ahead, and the six-horse Lotus Tower followed slowly behind.

There is a fixed bed on the first and second floors of Lotus Building. Old Mrs. Irving, who has many underlying diseases, is leaning on the bed on the first floor.

The selected valet Gerald and the cook Lily were sitting in the open kitchen area on the first floor to rest, which temporarily served as a rest room for the servants.

Owen, Xia Qingdai, Jane, Caroline and Connie were all sitting on the second floor of the Lotus Building, looking at the scenery along the way.

The second floor of the Lotus Building is pavilion-style, with ventilation from all sides, making it very comfortable to enjoy the cool weather in summer. The speed brought by the horses at a trot was just right for the wind speed to be moderate, which was very pleasant.

The five people were wearing hats and overlooking the countryside. The farmers in the fields were also looking up at the people on the Lotus Tower. This was even more impressive than Aunt Darcy's open carriage.

The current open-top carriage in Britain is a two-horse carriage, and the Lotus Tower has six horses! Moreover, it is a mobile building with unique oriental characteristics. No carriage can compete with it.

Even the solar-powered electric off-road vehicle at the front, driving at a low speed, couldn't steal the spotlight from Lotus Tower.

In Europe in the 18th century, things with oriental characteristics were simply "expensive" and were the representative of luxury goods. Merchants in the Qing Dynasty preferred to export high-end goods such as silk, tea, and porcelain. None of them were cheap, and shipping across the ocean was naturally more expensive.

Although this Lotus Tower is a model, it is very lifelike and full of oriental characteristics. After being enlarged in Lilliput and adding some modifications and soft furnishings, it becomes even more noble.

All the carriages encountered along the way retreated and were treated like luxury cars. I couldn't afford to pay for the scratches!
After the carriage drove out of Evely Town, everyone's interest in seeing the scenery waned. Because now there is really only the pure countryside left, without the emotional value provided by passers-by who look up in wonder.

Connie suggested playing cards. Reading in the turbulent carriage was naturally unscientific and would hurt the eyes.

"You guys play and I just take a look." Jane said.

There are five people here, and only four people are needed to play the new egg-breaking game. It just so happens that Jane has no interest in playing cards.

"Okay." Connie looked at Owen with bright eyes, "Cousin, have you brought the cards?"

"Yes." Owen pulled the bell that led directly to the kitchen, and Gerald's voice immediately came through the window.

"Mr. Owen, what are your orders?"

"Gerald, bring me the cards, thank you."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Not a second later, the sound of climbing stairs was heard from the side.

The stairs of the Lotus Building were on the side. After Gerald went upstairs to deliver the cards, he immediately went downstairs.

Owen and his three cousins ​​(cousins ​​are also called cousins ​​in the UK) gathered around the central table that could be used as both a bed and a coffee table, and began to play with eggs.

Compared with the original British card game, egg-breaking is indeed more addictive.

After an unknown amount of time, the vehicle reached the canyon, and the off-road vehicle leading the way suddenly drove back in the opposite direction.

Because the off-road vehicle is still faster than the trotting speed of the horse even if the speed is reduced, so it drives ahead for a while and then stops on the side of the road to wait for a while. This is the first time to drive backwards, something must have happened.

The groom Andrew also quickly reined in his horse and slowed down the car.

Although Owen was playing cards, he was always multi-tasking, looking in all directions and listening to all directions, so he immediately noticed something strange.

He made a pause gesture, stood up, walked to the front of the carriage, and asked condescendingly: "What happened?"

As soon as Sheride, who was driving the off-road vehicle in reverse, stopped, he jumped out in panic, ran to the front of the stalled carriage, raised his head and looked back: "Mr. Owen, there are robbers blocking the road ahead!"

When Owen heard this, it was nothing, but Connie and Caroline screamed in fright and hugged each other.

Xia Qingdai put down the cards in her hand and said to Owen, "I'll go down and take a look."

Owen stopped her and said, "Let me go, I have experience."

Xia Qingdai and his eyes communicated silently, and one of them seemed to be saying: "It's okay, I will transform into a spirit to clear the way."

One seems to be saying: "There is no need to kill a chicken with a bull's knife."

Xia Qingdai lowered her eyes: "Okay, then I'll go take a look with you."

If you can save a little faith, just save it. After all, Xia Qingdai's transformation back and forth will consume energy if she leaves the boundary of Fucui Villa.

The farther the distance, the greater the consumption.

"Okay." Owen turned to the other people and said, "You go downstairs and enter the house."

There is not much shelter on the second floor. If the opponent has a long-range attack weapon, it can easily become a target. Of course, it is safer to go downstairs and hide in the house.

Jane looked at Xia Qingdai worriedly and said, "Xia, do you also want to go to the front to check on the situation?"

As soon as they heard the words "robber" and "robbery," the scalps of a group of girls went numb and their faces immediately turned pale.

Although Jane has a rich heart, she can't imagine the scene of a weak and fragile lady facing a robber, and she can't help but feel very worried.

Connie immediately followed: "Miss Xia, you'd better not go. Let my cousin take the valet to see it. It's too dangerous."

Xia Qingdai gave them a confident and reassuring smile: "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

After saying that, he followed Owen downstairs. Owen asked Xia Qingdai in a low voice: "Do you want to bring a gun?"

"No need." Xia Qingdai shook her head. If she was going to use the gun, she might as well just consume the power of faith and transform into a giant. Pulling herself down to the same level as the villain for a gunfight, she couldn't bear to think about it.

Owen was well aware of Xia Qingdai's energy, so he didn't say much more. Anyway, he had a gun holster hanging on his waist.

The two took Gerald and Sheridan together, jumped into the off-road vehicle, and drove forward.

Soon after turning a corner, you can see the canyon. It is indeed a good place for an ambush.

There was no need to drive any closer, both Xia Qingdai and Owen could clearly see the trip rope blocking the mountain road.

It is normal that there will be robbers when there is a severe drought.
