Country color

Chapter 2
He put the five baht money back into the closet, it wasn't much, only about twenty pieces.

During the Sui Dynasty, meat and silk cloth were used as currency in official and folk circulation.Silver was still a rarity at the time.The annual output of the entire empire is only ten thousand taels, so it goes without saying that during the dynasty, people bought things with official ingots, even silver beans were very rare.

He raised his head and looked around, from the clothes, five baht coins, and this bow.He still couldn't make a specific judgment on the current situation.Just as he was about to look for clues again, his mind shuddered, and he suddenly remembered that a few people had something to say before.

At that time, I was lying on the bed in a daze.I only felt a few figures swaying in front of my eyes, and then they seemed to be talking worriedly in front of me.They said a lot, but they only vaguely remembered a few words.Looking at the shocking bruises on his body, he guessed that he probably saved his life by drinking decoction and ginseng after he was injured by someone.

What a sad boy.He rubbed the bruise on his body, and a piercing pain came, the injury was not light.

Who was injured?
Do you have any entanglements?

He tried his best to recall and remembered a few key points in those words.

For this Liao ginseng husband, he traveled hundreds of miles across the mountains. He bought it from Mohe people back then... Xiaojiu's fortune teller picked it up... Sidang's wild ginseng...

The Mohe people, yes, are the ancestors of the Jurchens, and more recently, they are the descendants of the Aixinjueluo family who are familiar to later generations.The range of activities of Mohe was in the Liaodong area in the Sui Dynasty, which is the range of the three northeastern provinces today.If you walk hundreds of miles, you still go over the mountain road and buy Liaodong wild ginseng from Mohe people.Then it's easy to deduce where you are.

Liaodong is hundreds of miles away, and the Daxingan Mountains in the north are excluded first. There is a place of birth, and it is definitely not the current Chinese people.As for the Bangzi Country to the east, it can also be ruled out. Although the accent of the people just now is strange, it is definitely a kind of Chinese.And in the south, um, from Hebei to Liaodong, you don't have to walk so many mountain roads.So the biggest possibility right now is that he is in the west of Taihang Mountain, Zhao in Yanzhao, and now Shanxi.

Fortunately, I didn't travel to sub-Saharan and Latin America, which is also a blessing among misfortunes, otherwise, I would have really started to struggle since the Stone Age, when I drank blood.After realizing this, his heart relaxed, his mind became active, and he began to deduce more and more things.

Just now, these people called the four masters.It seems that only bandits and bandits use it in this world.

And in this room, the pair of horn bows is definitely a superior weapon. It is equipped in the army and cannot be used by ordinary sergeants. It is not a hunting bow or other weapons used by ordinary people.Of course, my identity is a government army, a county soldier, and I can't say for sure.However, it is unlikely that there are four masters in the government army who are called like this.This point of inference is a little closer to the bandits and bandits.

As for Xiao Jiu who was called just now, it seemed to be his nickname.Those who can call themselves by their nicknames are usually those who are very close to them. These people did not hesitate to use Liao ginseng to save themselves, obviously it was not their relatives and family members.So obviously, I was definitely not kidnapped by bandits, but with bandits, and some important family members are members of bandits, and their status is not low.

This is all that I can confirm for the time being.As for the other houses, I can't search for it temporarily.

He barely supported his body, looking out from the window lattice, it was the eaves covered heavily with thatch, and the earth wall made of khaki rammed earth with monotonous color.A simple courtyard with rammed earth walls high and solid, except for a few branches and leaves of towering trees, this is the whole scene outside the window, surrounded by a bit of a taste of sitting in a well.As for the others, there are only the crowing sounds of chickens and sheep, which is quite a bit like a chicken and a dog.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a few rustling footsteps.The gate in the courtyard was pushed open with a creak.He narrowed his eyes, turned half his body sideways, and stared out the door.

I saw an old man in his 50s or [-]s appearing outside the door. He was quite loyal and walked into the courtyard with one hand carrying something similar to a food box.Judging by the way the other person walked, it seemed that he had suffered some kind of injury or was suffering from some kind of disease.

Seeing the old man walk into the yard, he supported himself and returned to the pit.Just as the wolf fur mattress was being covered, the old man pushed open the door and entered.He didn't open his eyes, calmed his breathing, and continued to pretend to be asleep on the bed, but his ears were pricked up, listening to the sound.

I only heard that after the old man put down the food box in the house, he walked up to him and looked at it quietly for a while.There was a smell of mutton on the opponent's body, but it was not heavy.

After a while, the old man said hoarsely: "Strange, logically speaking, most of Xiaojiu's injuries have recovered, and she will wake up today, why is she still in a coma?"

Hearing the concern in the other party's words, he felt a little relieved.

After sitting for a while, he said again: "Oh, that little girl is too cruel, she beat the young master like this."

"what?"

Confirming this information, at this moment he finally lifted the quilt and sat up from the bed.

Young master, his father is really a bandit leader.

"Master, you're awake."

The old man was also pleasantly surprised.

"Yeah." After being surprised, he nodded calmly, and the old man was still surprised and chattered, obviously it was hard to control the surprise.

Seeing how the other party cared about him so much, a trace of warmth surged in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Oh, look at my memory. Eat this soup cake quickly."

The other party patted his head with his left hand, and immediately took the food box aside, and then opened the box.

A strong smell of chicken soup is already wafting over.The old man first took out two yellow eggs and put them aside, then brought out a black casserole.After that, the other party carefully held it in front of him, lifted the lid of the casserole, and immediately steamed, fragrant chicken noodle soup appeared in front of his eyes.

He suddenly remembered that in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, all pasta products were called cakes, such as steamed buns, called steamed cakes.Soup cakes are noodles, which are scooped up in soup.The oily surface is floating on the surface, a thick layer sticks to the wall of the bowl, and a few tender and lovely green onions are dotted on the surface.

"Eat quickly, don't catch cold."

Watching him take a bite with chopsticks, the wrinkles on the other party's face immediately stretched out, and then began to peel the eggshell.The old man peeled the egg shell very carefully, as if he was afraid of revealing a little bit, even the egg skin was not spared. It can be seen that the living environment is not very rich.

Just as he was about to eat noodles, a memory that didn't belong to him suddenly invaded his head.At this time, a picture appeared in front of his eyes.A woman looked at herself with pity on the ground.

And a man on the side said loudly: "Third lady, this group of thieves even provoked our Tang Guogong's mansion, isn't this a self-inflicted humiliation?"

what is this?Memory of the ex?

Ah!
He felt a sharp pain in his head.

"Young master? Xiaojiu?" The old man got up and asked with concern, "Is the wound hurting again?"

No, it's not a sore wound.Rather... rather.Damn, I only leave this clue to myself, nothing else.

The most important thing right now is to confirm his identity. He pondered for a moment, whether to use fake amnesia, which is the most common way of time travel.But seeing this old man, he seemed to be quite simple and honest, so he decided to catch the other party's words first.

Xiao Jiu, um, this is the second time I have heard this title.

In the Sui Dynasty, if they only met each other by address, they were generally matched by their rank in the family.For example, Li Shimin, when he was not enthroned, or when he was not named King of Qin, boldly call him Li Er, and respectfully call him Li Erlang, but brother Shimin is still exempt.

So Xiaojiu, is it Xingjiu?
He suddenly thought of his eight brothers and sisters, and suddenly felt like sweating profusely.But no, since he is the young head of the family, he is the successor, so how could he be chosen with the first eight brothers and sisters.

"After I got sick, is everything okay here...?"

"Fortunately, because of your injury, the head of the family took the risk of going to the county town to buy wild ginseng for you, regardless of the arrest notice posted on the city wall."

"So nervous?" He couldn't help being a little moved.

"No, you are the only seedling of the Li family. The lifelong hope of the head of the family rests on you. The young head of the family needs to experience it." The old man's face was not calm when he said this, and tears seemed to flow out of his cloudy eyes.

The Li family is the only seedling.

"On the day you were born, a fortune-teller happened to pass by and came to the door and said, when this child was born, he had the second and ninth phases, and the purple aura came from the east. It is unspeakably precious."

"At that time, the head of the family heard it and was very happy."

"Li Chongjiu?"

He asked tentatively, and when he saw the old man, he nodded in confirmation.The second and ninth phases are heavy, that is, Chongyang, also known as the heavy nine.At that time, people's names were often named after the date of birth and the weight of the fetus, such as Qiqi, Jiujiu, Liujin and so on.

Well, Zhu Chongba, Wang Chongyang, nice to meet, nice to meet.

Li Chongjiu (officially changed his name) said with a smile: "Then I will believe what the fortune teller said. Whenever a child is born, he will come forward and say a few auspicious words, which will not only win the lottery, but also bring money into the account."

The old man hurriedly said: "Young master, you must believe the words of the immortal master."

Li Chongjiu touched the wound on his chest with a smile and said: "With my skill, it is too expensive to be beaten into a serious injury now. Forget it, by the way, she is still a woman, beat me like this .”

Li Chongjiu remembered the scene in his memory tentatively.

The old man hesitated for a while and said: "Who didn't think of this, who would have thought that the idea would be so difficult."

"There are more than twenty brothers, and there are only three people on the other side, and they still lose their wind."

Well, it seems that it was a half-way robbery. After that, as the young master, I led more than 20 people, and planned to greet the other three people.Unexpectedly, the other party pretended to be a pig and eat a tiger, and the three of them were all masters to fight back. As a result, they and their party were wiped out.

"The opponent is very powerful. Three people defeated more than 20 of us."

The old man shook his head and said, "It's a person, the woman who competed with the young master."

Li Chongjiu couldn't help but think of the stunning woman in the picture, and couldn't help nodding. It seemed that the other party attacked and injured him.

Not good, Duke Tang's mansion.

Li Chongjiu seemed to understand something.

Sanniang, Tang Guogong's mansion.It can't be such a coincidence.

In the Sui Dynasty, under the king of the county was the duke of the state, so there were only a few in the world who could be called the duke of the state.

Tang Gaozu Li Yuan and Li Shude were hereditary Tang Guogongs, and later took Mingjue as their country name.So Tang Guogong's mansion is Li Yuan's mansion.The woman who injured her, Li Sanniang, was probably Li Yuan's daughter, Princess Pingyang.

At this time, Li Chongjiu didn't bother to ask questions, and asked immediately: "Which dynasty is the emperor now, how many years has it been?"

When the old man heard Li Chongjiu's question, he was surprised and said: "Young master, you won't suffer from soul-loss disease!"

Li Chongjiu smiled and said: "I seem to have slept for a long time, so I am so groggy that I can't remember clearly."

Then the old man suddenly came over and said: "Young master, you have been in a coma for three days, and the world doesn't know it. Alas, the current emperor with double pupils has been on the throne for the seventh year."

The emperor with double pupils, in ancient times, people with double pupils were regarded as saints.Great cause for seven years.Li Chongjiu made a conclusion.Kaihuang has a total of 19 years, Renshou four years, and Daye seven years.

Well, fortunately, there are still six years before Li Yuan's rise in Jinyang.The current situation is not the worst yet.The imperial court at this moment is still the Great Sui Dynasty, which looks like a brocade of flowers at first glance, and is full of fire.
