Kung Fu Movie Time Travel

Chapter 24 Surprise when meeting Liu for the first time

"Oh, Brother Surprise, I'm from Foshan, Guangdong. I want to visit Dali. It can be regarded as traveling. Seeing the scenery in various places will enrich my knowledge!" Liu Nan said.

After walking for about twenty minutes, a large village with a strong ethnic minority style appeared in Liu Nan's sight.

The houses in the village are basically made of wood, mostly with two floors. The most distinctive feature is that people live downstairs, and half of the space upstairs is used for livestock.

For example: cows and sheep are all on the second floor. Maybe there are many woods here and I am afraid of tigers and wolves.

Liu Nan has a very good attitude and keeps shouting "Brother Surprise", so Liu Nan has good senses for him.

Generally speaking, people with status in this era may feel that their status is higher, look down on the people in the village, and classify people into third, sixth, or ninth grade.

As a modern hard-working worker, Liu Nan, who has been educated on the idea that everyone is equal, definitely does not have this bad habit, and he knows that it is not strange to treat others with courtesy.

No, when he was approaching the door of Liu Xuyi's house, he opened his mouth and said to Liu Nan: "Mr., the inn in this village is still some distance away from here. If you don't mind, you can stay at my house for the night."

Liu Nan said sheepishly: "Would that disturb your family?"

"No, no, my family is just my wife and two children. There is no one else. It will be more lively if you come as a guest!" Liu said in surprise.

Liu Nan thought that it was getting late and it would be troublesome to go to the inn again, so he nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Surprise!"

Liu Surprise stepped forward and knocked twice: "I'm back!"

"Squeak!" A pretty-faced Miao woman opened the door and said gently to Liu Xinyi: "Xinyi, hurry up and eat, it will be cold in a while!"

Then Liu Nan was stunned when he saw Liu Nan standing behind Liu Xinyi, and asked doubtfully: "Who is this?"

"This young gentleman is a doctor. He was late on his way, so I asked him to stay at our house for one night." Liu Surprise explained.

Then he turned around and said, "This is my wife, Ayu!"

"Hello, sister-in-law!"

"Okay... okay, come in quickly, I'll fill the chopsticks and bowl," Ayu said enthusiastically.

In the room, there were already two children sitting in front of the small table waiting. There were also farm dishes on the table, which were not rich but very warm.

Liu Nan sat and ate with the family. Watching the family chatting and laughing about their daily chores, Liu Nan suddenly felt a little envious. He felt that such an ordinary life was also full of happiness.

Thinking of Bao Zhilin again, the elegant and chivalrous master Huang Feihong, the impulsive and loyal senior brother Zhu Zhurong, the stuttering and kind-hearted second senior brother Yazasu, the clever fourth senior brother Liang Kuan and the beautiful and lovely thirteenth aunt are all here. One by one, it flashed through his mind that this was his family too!

After dinner, Ayu made a bed for Liu Nan, and just like that, the night passed peacefully.

Early the next morning, Liu Nan was woken up by the alarm clock given by Liu Surprise. Of course, this was not a modern electronic alarm clock.

The method is to hang the incense, then put a string on the incense, tie an iron bead under the string, put a copper basin under the iron bead, and light the incense before going to bed.

You can smoke out some mosquitoes. In the morning, when the string is burned and the iron beads fall into the copper basin, the sound acts as an alarm.

Sure enough, life is full of wisdom!

After Liu Nan got up, he went out to find a secluded place and started practicing martial arts. So far, Liu Nan has punched with all his strength, and his punching force is about 5,000 kilograms. In terms of strength, it is about 2,000 kilograms. In other words, in modern times, he can already lift a car.

Punch power and strength do not mean the same thing. Punch power refers to the instantaneous burst of power when punching, while strength refers to the power you can use to pick up things.

In terms of strength, Liu Nan's current strength is probably about the same as Huang Feihong's, but when it comes to martial arts skills and exerting force, Liu Nan is still far behind.

But Liu Nan doesn't need to worry about this. There is a saying that one force can bring down ten. When your strength reaches a certain level, if you encounter an opponent as powerful as Huang Feihong, you can just rush past him.

After feeling that Liu Xinyi's family was about to get up, he slowly walked back.

On the small wooden table, Liu Nan and Liu Xinyi's family of four were eating pickles and porridge. Liu Xinyi told the interesting story of Zhigen's sister-in-law from the paper factory giving her child a full-moon drink to curse at the street.

Liu Nan took out two silver locks prepared in advance from his pocket, handed them to Liu Xinyi's two children and said: "Fang Zheng, Xiaotian, these are two silver locks that my uncle bought when he passed by the Guanyin Temple in Guangxi. I gave them to him. Stay safe, both of you!"

Liu Yixin and Ayu hurriedly said: "How can this happen? How can I accept such a valuable thing from you!"

Liu Nan smiled and said: "Brother Xinyi and Sister-in-law Ayu are not valuable things. I think the two children like them very much. Just to keep them safe, don't postpone them, otherwise you will look down on me!"

Liu Xinyi and Ayu looked at each other and said to the two children: "Fang Zheng, Xiaotian, thank you uncle!"

The two children couldn't put it down and touched the silver lock and said happily to Liu Nan: "Thank you, uncle!"

"So good!" Liu Nan touched the heads of the two children.

In fact, when Liu Nan travels and sees something he likes on the road, he will buy it and prepare to give it away to others.

During the chat, Liu Nan learned that Liu Weiyi was originally a paper cutter, and later built a paper-making workshop outside the village. The paper he produced was very famous in this area, and many people came here because of it. The economic development of the village was mostly It was driven by this papermaking workshop.

No wonder Liu Nan felt that this village was quite prosperous, bigger than some of the towns he encountered on the road.

Liu Xixin mainly works in the papermaking workshop now, and in his spare time he does paper cutting and sticker work in the village.

After the meal, Liu Nan planned to continue on the road, but Liu Nan was surprised to know that he was traveling and not in a hurry, so he invited him to visit their paper studio.

Liu Nan thought about it. He used to use paper every day, but he didn't know how paper was made. As a high school graduate, he didn't pay special attention to this.

I know it is made of trees, or because the country often promotes, "Protect trees and save paper!"

When I have the opportunity, I really want to see how the paper of this era was made. It is interesting to think about it and it will give me some insight.

So Liu Nan followed Liu Surprise to the papermaking workshop.

Along the way, Liu Nan couldn't help feeling that the scenery in Yunnan was so beautiful. First, he passed a green grassland with cattle and sheep everywhere.

Then we entered the dense woods, passed by stone bridges and flowing water full of historical and cultural atmosphere, and finally came to the papermaking workshop.

In the workshop, Liu Nan saw the process of making paper. It turned out that the paper was not all made of wood as he had imagined. The main material was actually straw, with some bark, hemp and other things he could not recognize.

Paper is made by soaking straw, bark, hemp and other raw materials in water, chopping, washing, cooking, rinsing, pounding, adding water to form a suspended slurry, extracting the pulp, and drying it.

Seeing that things like straw and bark turned into paper hanging on poles and fluttering in the wind through such a process, Liu Nan couldn't help but marvel at the wisdom of our ancient Chinese people.

Thinking again about the five thousand years of history of the great Chinese nation, it has invented papermaking, the compass, printing, gunpowder and so on.

Now we have become a backward civilization in the eyes of foreigners, and they need to invade our country on the grounds of passing on civilization. I feel extremely aggrieved in my heart.

Liu Huixin is responsible for spring pounding, which uses the principle of leverage to connect a large cylindrical stone hammer to one end of the board, and a person stands on the other end to step on it, allowing the stone hammer to tap the raw materials.

When it was almost noon, Liu Nan followed Liu Nan back to the village, because he also took over the paper-cutting job of the cabinet shop. The cabinet shop is like a bank in modern society, where coins and valuables are stored, and they are relatively generous. of.

Liu Xinyi went to work in the cabinet shop, and Liu Nan walked around the village. As he walked around, he felt a little hungry in his stomach. After all, the porridge he drank in the morning did not suppress his hunger.

I found the only inn in the village, walked in and sat down at an empty seat, ordered two side dishes and a bottle of wine.

When I asked for wine, the chubby waiter specially introduced it, saying that the wine was home-brewed "Qianrichun", also known as "Pour through the bottle" and "pour in front of the door", although it was a village wine. , but it is comparable to the taste of old wine.

Liu Nan took a sip and felt that the alcohol content was not as high as the liquor he drank before, but it also had a different taste.

The innkeeper is a man in his forties and close to his fifties. While calculating the accounts with an abacus, he chatted to Liu Nan and said, "I am a stranger to you. You are not a local, are you?"

"The shopkeeper has good eyesight. I'm passing by here to take a break," Liu Nan replied with a smile.

The shopkeeper looked at Liu Nan and suddenly said slyly: "Let me tell you, a few months ago, a father and daughter came to my place. They were also from other places. They sold me a few 'Dali Pills'. Don't mention it after eating them." How cool it is!”

Liu Nan almost spit out his drink.

Sure enough, wretchedness has no age distinction. Liu Nan said to the shopkeeper with a suppressed smile: "You are really a young man, I admire you!"

The shopkeeper also laughed.

After the dinner and dinner, two more guests came to the inn, one was a strong man with a flat head, and the other was a thin man with half-long hair. Both of them carried long knives and bags on their backs, both with fierce looks on their faces.

Seeing another guest coming, the chubby waiter immediately greeted them enthusiastically. The two guests sat down and asked for wine. The chubby waiter started bragging about the "Thousand Days of Spring" in their inn.

After the guest originally asked for four anise (jiao: an ancient quantifier for wine), he changed it to eight anise.

Seeing that there were new guests, the innkeeper started talking about his "Dali Pill" again, but this pair of guests were not as polite as Liu Nan and ignored him completely.

After a while, the waiter brought the wine. Unexpectedly, the thinner guest only took a sip and said it tasted bad. Just as the waiter was about to step forward to explain, the strong man with a flat head waved his hand and asked: "Hey, Waiter, is there a cabinet shop in your village?"

"Yes, yes, just go straight ahead and reach the end." Seeing that the guest officer did not pursue the wine issue, the waiter hurriedly pointed.

The two people looked at each other, stopped drinking, paid and left.

Liu Nan watched the two people leave in a hurry, feeling that something was not quite right.

After eating for a while, Liu Nan slapped the table and stood up and said, "That's not right!"

Then he raised his head and asked the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, are those two people from the village?"

The shopkeeper was confused by Liu Nan's actions and said, "No, I know everyone in the village. This is the first time I've met these two people."
