Following Fang Si's words, the scene fell into dead silence.
The reason why Fang Si asked this was that although there were only two sentences just now, they revealed a lot of things.
One is that the person speaking has always been a female voice, and her words have an "us".
Although she might have meant to tell Fang Si that they were not the same person, in Fang Si's eyes it became a clear message.
It was always a female voice that spoke, which meant that even if there was someone else in the room, it was most likely a girl. If not, it must be a very young child or a child who was unable to take charge.
Therefore, there must be no more than three people in the house, and the oldest one is a girl.
Almost instantly, Fang Si guessed the general situation in the inner room.
There were no adults at home, only an older sister and a child who was not sure whether he was a brother or a sister.
However, although the opponent was weak, Fang Si did not intend to do anything.
He is not a pervert or a bad person. Before he traveled through time, he was just a newly graduated office worker who couldn't find a job.
Strictly speaking, he is also a young man of the new era.
So, he coughed and said.
"I have something to ask you, and I'll leave after I finish. I know you are a brother and sister, so don't try to scare me, and don't cross the threshold.
After tonight, none of us will know each other."
Fang Si was not greedy for the wild vegetables because he had money in his hands.
As soon as it gets light, he can go to other people's homes to exchange for food.
What he wanted to figure out first was where this world was and what dynasty it was in.
After hearing Fang Si's words, the room fell silent for a while.
After a while, the female voice sounded again.
"You said."
Compared to letting others eat the food, the lives of herself and her brother were obviously more important, so Gong Yangwan chose to follow her heart.
"Where is this place?"
"Chenjia Village, Qingshan County."
Fang Si thought about it and had no impression of the name of the county, so he simply asked about the dynasty.
"What dynasty is it now? Who is the emperor?"
"Dynasty?" Gong Yangwan was stunned for a moment, then pondered for a while.
"The current imperial court is called the Han Dynasty, and the emperor... seems to be called Liu..."
"Han?" Fang Si was startled, then remembered and continued to ask, "Last name Liu? Is it Liu Bang or Liu Bei? Or Liu Che or Liu Xiu?"
The Han Dynasty spanned four hundred years in history books. Before the emperor was determined, Fang Si knew that it was the Han Dynasty, but he was not sure which node it was.
Chapter 506: Are you making fire by rubbing two sticks together?
Hearing Fang Si's question, Gong Yangwan thought for a moment and then said.
"I don't know the emperor's name, but I know the previous emperor's temple name was Han Jing."
After Gong Yangwan finished speaking, Fang Si immediately reacted when he heard the two words "Han Jing".
It was not surprising that Gongyang Wan died without knowing the emperor's name. After all, you can't just pick up someone from the street and find out the emperor's name. After all, ancient times were not modern times, and the dissemination of information was not so widespread.
After hearing the temple name Han Jing, Fang Si immediately understood what dynasty it was.
The good news is that it has not been traveled abroad and is still in the country. The bad news is that it has been traveled to more than 140 years BC.
It has been two thousand years since he was in 2021.
When thinking about who Emperor Jing of Han was, it was not difficult for Fang Si to infer that the current emperor was Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che.
As he thought of this, Fang Si's face hidden in the dark became even darker.
Why the hell did you come here at this time?
Although Fang Si's history was not very good, he also knew that the era of Emperor Wu of Han was definitely not a good place!
During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, although there was not much separatist rule by vassal kings, there were still princes and nobles in various places, and the laws of the Han Dynasty could not be applied in many places.
Maybe, if Huo Qubing had not been born, there would have been a plot of the Huns invading the border.
Sadly, Fang Si felt that the place he was in was quite remote, maybe even a border area.
Suddenly, Fang Si suddenly remembered the supernatural phenomena that happened along the way.
"Does this world have any supernatural phenomena?"
"Supernatural phenomenon?" Gong Yangwan was stunned when he heard Fang Si's words.
"Is there anyone who has extraordinary powers?" Seeing that Gong Yangwan didn't quite understand, Fang Si added another sentence.
As Fang Si finished speaking, Gong Yangzhuo tightened his grip on Gong Yangwan's hand, and Gong Yangwan also became alert.
"Yes, there seem to be quite a lot of these people in the past two years, but we all call them strangers."
"Strange man?" Fang Si scratched his head, not understanding what this title meant.
However, after a moment of silence, he simply stopped asking Gong Yangwan about these things, because he felt that Gong Yangwan probably didn't know either.
After thinking about it, Fang Si decided to ask her to help read the paper with something written on it that he couldn't understand.
"Are you literate?"
In ancient times, many people were illiterate, so Fang Si didn't hold much hope and just asked casually.
However, to Fang Si's surprise, Gongyang Wan actually answered that he could read.
Seeing this, Fang Si hurriedly continued to ask.
"Have you any candles in your house?"
This time, Gong Yangwan in the inner room was silent for a long time.
"Candles?" He asked in disbelief at first, then Gong Yangwan said with a wry smile, "Do you think we can afford candles?"
If they could afford candles, could they eat wild vegetables?
After hearing this answer, Fang Si also remembered that candles seemed to be items for the nobility in ancient times.
"So what do you use for lighting at night?"
"There are torches in the kitchen."
"Where?"
"…a little to the left of the stove."
After Fang Si used flint and broken knife to strike sparks and lit the torch, he looked around the stove.
In order to ensure that he would not be attacked by the siblings in the house, Fang Si could not hand the torch to them. Therefore, he looked around the kitchen to see if he could find anything they used to make a fire.
After looking for a long time, Fang Si looked at a relatively round wooden stick and a grooved wooden board on the ground.
He asked after a moment's silence.
"You make fire by rubbing two sticks together?"
Was the Han Dynasty so difficult?
After Fang Si asked this question, Gong Yangwan and the others fell silent for a moment.
"if not?"
As Fang Si threw the materials and tools for making fire into the house, he also threw in the piece of paper covered with words and the unburned torch.
After doing all this, he spoke to Gong Yangwan.
"After you light the torch, look at what's written on the paper and read it to me. After you finish reading, I'll leave. You and I will keep our distance."
After Fang Si finished speaking, there was no response from the inner room, only the crackling sound of wood turning.
Fang Si understood that they were probably rubbing two sticks together to make fire.
After waiting for a while, a ray of fire rose from the house and Gong Yangwan's voice was heard.
"All right."
Seeing this, Fang Si also waited attentively.
Of course, he didn't get very close to the door. While he wanted to hear the contents of the paper, he was also on guard against Gong Yangwan attacking him with the newly lit torch.
When Gong Yangwan saw that Fang Si never showed up at the door, she gave up the idea of attacking him with torches and kitchen knives, and began to read the contents of the paper to Fang Si in the light of the fire.
As Gong Yangwan saw clearly what was written on the paper, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Seeing that Gong Yangwan's expression was not right, Gong Yangzhuo, who was holding a torch beside him, immediately stepped forward and asked in a low voice. However, because he was not paying attention, he almost burned Gong Yangwan's hair.
"What's wrong sister?"
Gong Yangwan dodged for a moment to avoid having her hair set on fire, and then began to speak.
"This is an exorcism letter."
She did not lower her voice, as she was speaking to her younger brother Gong Yangzhuo and also to Fang Sheng who was outside the house.
"Exorcism order?" Fang Si's heart skipped a beat when he heard Gong Yangwan's words.
It’s broken, there really is something dirty.
Then, Fang Si hurriedly asked, "Don't say it word by word, finish it quickly and I will leave quickly, we are in a hurry."
Of course Fang Si would not think that there were only three words on this letter.
He had seen this piece of paper before. Although he could not understand what was written on it, he clearly remembered that there were a total of 134 words. Obviously, it was not just the three words "Exorcism Order".
Sure enough, as Fang Si finished speaking, Gong Yangwan quickly began to talk about the specific content.
"This says that we've received a tip from the Qingshan County Magistrate that traces of Shadow Goblins have been spotted in the area. Under the Marquis's order, we're sending one centurion, ten squad leaders, twenty platoon leaders, and one hundred soldiers to suppress the demon.
Hundred households: land workers.
Squad leader: Fang Si, Li Qiu, Wang Shen, Chen Ge...
Sergeant:…”
After finishing reading the names, Gong Yangwan stopped, and Fang Si sighed as he heard it.
No cutting corners, exactly 134 words.
However, although he got the information, Fang Si felt even worse.
Putting aside other things, if what was written on the exorcism order was correct, then this time they had more than a hundred people coming to deal with the so-called shadow goblin, and Fang Si felt that if the marquis was not a fool, he would not let a group of ordinary people like them deal with such an extraordinary creature.
Then, the centurion must be some strange person...
After a moment of silence, Fang Si carefully thought about the appearance of the token on the corpse in his memory.
"Could you describe in detail what the characters for 'Lu' and 'Gong' look like?"
Gong Yangwan was stunned, but still described it obediently.
Afterwards, after confirming that the dead person was the centurion, Fang Si immediately stood up, climbed out the window and left.
Of course, he asked for the paper back before leaving.
However, paper is undoubtedly secondary to the current situation. His top priority now is to find the village chief, and then find the county magistrate through him, and then let the county magistrate quickly contact the marquis.
He had a feeling that the matter with Shadow Mandrill was far from over.
It is worth mentioning that he took the wild vegetables with him, after all, he had been hungry for a day.
Chapter 507 Chaos Emerges
Unlike Fang Si who was groping in the dark looking for the village chief on the other side, in Daxia, Lin Qiye was looking at Yuanshi Tianzun and others in front of him with a gloomy face.
At this time, Lin Qiye was in the Heavenly Palace, and opposite him were Yuanshi Tianzun, Daode Tianzun, and many Daxia gods.
Compared with the densely packed Great Xia Gods, Lin Qiye's side only consisted of him and Cao Yuan, so they seemed quite weak.
The two sides stared at each other for a long time, and finally, it was Lin Qiye who spoke with bitterness in his voice.
