I trade in both worlds

Chapter 32 A different world

After returning to the utility room, he looked left and right at the door, went in and out, and hesitated for a long time. Finally, Xu Xu decided to see where was outside first, and then figure out how to go back.

Xu Xu walked to the window, afraid that people outside would see her, so she hid beside the window and tilted her head to look out. She happened to see a dog looking at the window, which frightened her so much that her heart was pounding. She squatted down and looked up at the window from time to time.

After squatting for a while, Xu Xu's legs became numb. He stood up by supporting himself against the wall and walked back and forth along the inner wall. After the numbness in his legs was relieved, Xu Xu came to the window again and looked out with his head tilted as before.

All I saw outside was a flat road. The color of the road surface was a bit like blue bricks, but a little lighter than blue bricks. And it was not made up of small pieces, but was connected into one piece. I don't know what it was made of.

After a while, someone on a bicycle flashed past the window. Xu Xu glanced at it but couldn't see clearly. He only saw a person whoosh and passed by. Could this person fly? His speed was too fast.

Suddenly, a few more children walked by laughing. Xu Xu saw clearly this time that the boys all had short hair and the clothes they wore exposed their arms and thighs, which was completely different from what he was wearing. The fabrics were of various colors and some had patterns. He didn't know if they were embroidered. At first glance, it didn't look like they were embroidered.

Then a young man rode past slowly on an iron lump. Xu Xu could clearly see that it had two big wheels, which were different from the wheels of Dayunchao. He leaned his head a little bit and could see if there was anything passing by in front, but it happened to be a blind spot and he could not see clearly.

The people and things in this world have aroused Xu Xu's interest. She has even forgotten to figure out how to go back. She just wants to see clearly what those things are and what their uses are.

Xu Xu stood at the window looking outside, thinking about how to see more clearly. The door couldn't be opened. Even if it was opened, Xu Xu didn't have the key. He was worried that he couldn't get back to the yard, so he gave up and went to the yard to take a look. The house had two floors, so he wanted to see if there was any place he could go up and take a look.

Back in the yard, Xu Xu walked to the main house. He had just looked through the window on the left. Now he went around to the opposite side to see what was there. When he reached the door of the main house, Xu Xu saw the door lock. He looked up and down but couldn't find a place to insert the key.

He touched it and suddenly there was a warning sound and the light on the door lock came on. Xu Xu was so scared that he retracted his hand and quickly ran back to the utility room, continued to hide behind the door, and waited quietly.

When his heart was beating slower, Xu Xu slowly stuck his head out and looked outside. He saw nothing and the sound that had just sounded did not come again. So he mustered up the courage to go out and stood at the door and waited. It was still quiet.

When he came to the door of the main house again, he looked at the black door lock. The light had disappeared. Although he was very curious, Xu Xu did not dare to touch it again. He stared at it and muttered to himself, "Is this some kind of monster? Even a piece of iron can make a sound."

The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, especially in this quiet environment. The only consolation was that it was broad daylight now and the sun was shining brightly overhead, so it shouldn't be a ghost or anything like that. Also, from time to time I could hear people talking outside the house, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

After comforting himself for a while, and since nothing had happened for such a long time, Xu Xu began to get bolder. He continued to walk forward to the right side of the main house, and then he found that there was a staircase between the main house and the room without a door. However, the staircase was made of bricks and had a half-person-high railing. If you didn't look carefully, you would think it was a wall.

Xu Xu stepped onto the stairs, taking each step carefully, and looking around curiously. When he reached the second-floor terrace, there was a door on the left side of the stairs near the main building. At the innermost part of the terrace was a large cylinder with a slanted iron lump. Was it an iron handle? They even used a variety of colors for the iron.

Why is there so much iron in this world? Can ordinary people use so much? In Dayun Dynasty, iron is controlled by the government, and you can't buy more even if you want to. But here, it is everywhere.

Xu Xu looked into the distance and saw patches of cultivated land. He didn't know what was planted over there, but it was tall. Not far ahead should be someone's vegetable garden, but are those vegetables? Some of them he had never seen before. What were those red fruits? He didn't know if they were delicious.

Some dishes seem a little different from those in Dayunchao, such as eggplant. The eggplants in Dayunchao are green and small, but this one is purple, and one is equivalent to two in Dayunchao. So it should be eggplant, right?

Suddenly, a horn sounded, startling Xu Xu. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a black object slowly passing the intersection ahead. She could see a person sitting inside. Is this the horse-drawn carriage here? There was no horse in sight, so how did this carriage move?

After the black car passed, Xu Xu saw a group of middle-aged women sitting under a big tree on the opposite road. It turned out that the talking that he could hear from time to time just now came from here.

No matter where, as long as there is a big tree, countless people can gather to chat gossip, just like across the street and under the big tree in Xu Village.

Also, what kind of fabric are those people's clothes made of? The styles look weird. The woman who just walked past the aunt was wearing something so weird that Xu Xu was embarrassed to look at it. From a distance, it looked like a piece of cloth was cut to wrap around her chest to her thighs.

Looking at the person's loose hair, Xu Xu suspected that people here didn't tie their hair up. Wouldn't it be hot to leave it like that with such long hair? But her hair was pretty good, and it wasn't straight. How did she do that?

And her shoes, could they be supported by just a thin and tall stick? If the roads here were not paved, if it were the roads in Dayun Dynasty, she would probably sprain her feet.

The roads here are really good. Driving a bullock cart on such a road shouldn't be bumpy, and you don't have to worry about getting your feet covered in mud when it rains. Xu Xu looked up and saw that most of the houses he saw were two or three stories high, and some were even taller.

Looking at the shiny floor tiles under his feet, Xu Xu was curious about what materials they were made of and how such a tall building was built. He wondered if Dayun Dynasty could build it.

At this time, the beeping sound was heard again, and Xu Xu saw someone riding a small two-wheeled vehicle past. This one was different from the one she had just seen in the utility room. Xu Xu was extremely envious. It would be great if she could also have a two-wheeled vehicle like this, so she wouldn't have to walk anywhere.

Xu Xu looked towards the front of the main house and saw many cars passing by in the air.
