Chapter 857
Haiquan Harbor.
There are a large number of cargo ships and fishing boats docked on the pier.
Some of them are ancient sail styles, some are already covered with a layer of steel, and huge steam chimneys continue to emit black smoke.
The sound of the whistle is mixed with the chant of the dock coolie and the chanting of various vendors, forming a lively scene.
Qi Old Fourth is a port tax preparer. He looks fat in his head and his bald head is greasy. At this moment, he sees another old sailing boat coming by from a distance above the sea level, and he can't help but feel refreshed.
Hai Xuan slowly stopped on the shore, and a youngster wearing a short shirt and a short-headed youngster walked down.
"Who is the owner of the ship? Come and file taxes!"
Qi Old Fourth rubbed his fingers: "There is also a parking fee, according to the tonnage of your ship, one yuan per ton per day, less than a day Calculated in one day..."
"Ship? Where is the boat?"
Zhong Shenxiu dashed behind him with a cool wave.
He was a vain prostitute, asked Haixuan to send him back to the continent, and then slipped away.
At this time, stepping onto the solid ground, there are no more bumps in the ocean, and it makes people feel more at ease inexplicably.
"So big a ship, do you think I am blind?"
Qi Old Fourth almost breathed out fragrance, pointed to the position of Haixuan, suddenly dumbfounded.
I saw that the berth was empty, where is the ship?
Oh!
Oh!
His teeth trembled suddenly, and he looked up at the sky again, and saw a round of sun rising, but the ship was really gone...
'Ghost ship? '
Qi Old Fourth suddenly remembered a Western legend in his mind, and his legs became soft: "This...what can I do about this? That person...that person..."
Thinking of Zhong Shenxiu, he became even more frightened, almost like a puppet, turning his head stiffly, suddenly as if was struck by lightning.
In the original position, the sailor is gone.
Moreover, in his mind, the impression of that person has quickly blurred, and he can no longer remember what the other person looks like.
……
Zhong Shenxiu mixed into the chaotic flow of people at the pier, and then walked out swayingly, curiously looking at everything all around.
The salesman carrying the blunt load of wontons...
The hawker who shouts the secret drama of Western pull-up...
Wearing Western-style clothes and makeup, riding a Bicycle, Girls ironing curly hair...
Foreigners with blond hair, blue eyes, or red hair and blue eyes...
Students with long hair, buns, and Tsing Yi... …
Everything is intertwined together into a bizarre and motley picture.
'This sense of familiarity... why is it so similar? Could it be that different branches can really bear the same fruit? '
Zhong Shenxiu's eyes are light flashed, and he keeps this question in my heart.
Beyond the pier, there is a small market.
Foreign cargo ships are unloading here, and some goods are sold directly on the spot. Coupled with the large number of passengers, it is prosperous.
Zhong Shenxiu found a stall and ordered a piece of wonton noodles. While eating, he watched the scene of the market.
This wonton noodle is made very authentic. The wonton is made with fat and thin whole pork, first cut and chopped, and then added with egg noodles and boiled soup. The wonton tastes smooth and the noodles It is chewy, because it is the seaside, and seafood such as shrimp is added to the soup, which is endlessly memorable.
'According to Fang Lang's memory, this is the'Great Zhou Dynasty', six years of the Earth Festival...This world has a lot of natural and man-made disasters, and all kinds of monsters, weird, and abnormal weather emerge in endlessly...40 years ago , The Great Western envoy took a steamship and crossed the ocean. As a result, the East and the West merged, and various new thoughts emerged one after another. The Great Zhou Dynasty became more and more chaotic...'
'I can’t do it now. To be used, it must exist in the form of Fang Lang. The most urgent thing is to contact the extraordinary world first... It is best to find the clues to Ouroboros and the Lord of the Door...'
Fang Lang is just a sailor after all. Among the ordinary persons, they are already well-informed.
But after all, there is still too little understanding of the Beyonders.
Zhong Shenxiu stopped at the wharf market, and there are related considerations.
Dragons and snakes mingle in the wharf area is prosperous, and there is a greater chance of encountering strange people and extraordinary items. Perhaps you can get a stepping stone to the extraordinary world with this.
Even if he can't use his body, Fang Lang has also been repaired into a parallel Corpse Severance Immortal, and he still has a certain sense of Extraordinary power.
Zhong Shenxiu glanced across the pedestrians in the market, and after waiting for a while, his eyes suddenly fell on the body of a rich family.
The other party looks 20 or 30 years old, dressed in a decent suit, with short hair, just like a student returning from abroad, with a book boy behind him.
'This person is not extraordinary, but the body has some anomalous auras, and he may have been exposed to related items...'
He made a judgment in his heart.
In Fang Lang's vision within the realm, Heaven and Earth looks like a grayish white. Only people or things with an extraordinary aura can emit different colors.
At this time, he saw another person passing by.
The aura of the opponent's body is several times stronger than that of a foreign student's body.
Looking at the other party's dressing, he seems to be a trader.
"The shopkeeper!"
Zhong Shenxiu yelled, and the forty-year-old man with a shrewd face stopped: "Come here... I want to buy something ."
"Hey!"
The salesman agreed happily, and stopped in front of Zhong Shenxiu with the burden: "Guest what do you want to buy? I don’t care about needles, needles, or foreigners. Smoke and fire, all kinds of overseas Rare Items...everything, and a real price for you!"
Zhong Shenxiu looked at the pile of fragments, and suddenly took out a black vial from it.
The shopkeeper’s eyes lit up immediately and he gave a thumbs up: "Guest, you really have eyesight. This is a fan of merfolk. It has strong Yang Spirit effect and can make the golden spear not fall..."
"It turned out to be a mermaid's scale grinding powder?"
At this time, the foreign student also leaned over, with a look of surprise on his face: "When I was studying in the West, I heard a mysterious The classmates in the association said that this merfolk is called a mermaid. Its scales have the magical effect of nourishing yin and nourishing yang. If you take it for a long time, you can live a long life!"
He looked at Zhong Shenxiu, and arched his hands again. Said: "Xia Xia Mingyuan, I wonder if this brother can cut love?"
Zhong Shenxiu looked at the bright gazes of the men around, and couldn't help but sigh secretly at the man’s sufferings. He hasn’t said anything yet, the book boy next to him. He shouted: "Young Master, no, the master has ordered, if you dare to go to Yixianglou to find those sisters, you will break your leg..."
"Pooh, this is scholar You don’t understand how elegant the matter is."
Qi Yuan snorted and took out several paper bills.
The Great Zhou Dynasty originally used silver to trade. Later, Western currency was imported. The Imperial Court also innovated to create the Great Zhou silver dollar, which is valued at'one yuan', apart from this, and copper corners as auxiliary coins.
For large amounts of currency, paper money is used. Anti-counterfeiting is OK, so circulation is fairly convenient.
Zhong Shenxiu glanced, the stack is at least more than twenty yuan.
'This man... is such a good man! '
