The author has something to say: It’s just a backup, don’t bother me if you’ve already read it

The moon hangs in the sky, and whispers can be heard from a closed door.
"Brother, do you know which three colors are the traffic lights?"
"Red, yellow and green."
"How is the barbarian bird language called the barbarian bird language?"
"English."
"The abbreviation of League of Legends?"
"... stroke, stroke?"
"Wrong. Brother, what you and I have planned is not trivial. It concerns the safety of the world. These issues must not be taken lightly."
"Yes."
"It's better to recite the characters of the barbarian bird language again."
"A, B, C, D..."
As the moon gradually sinks to the west, the strange syllables that echoed over and over again in the secluded room also returned to silence.

The landlord looked at Zuo Yunqi.
Zuo Yunqi also looked directly at the landlord.
Zuo Yunqi is a beautiful young man with a bright face, but at the moment his face is pale, his clothes are ragged, and there are marks of whipping all over his bare arms. He stands alone in the hall alone, facing the eyes with different connotations around him, but his expression has a sense of detachment that has nothing to do with him.
The landlord raised Erlang's legs and turned his head, and asked the burly man next to him: "What's the matter, is he wearing clothes?"
Five or six men looked at each other in blank dismay.
One of the big bearded men clasped his fists and said, "My lord, he claims to have traveled through time after a thousand years. But we think he is fake."
The landlord said: "Why?"
The man said: "My whole gang has a sworn hatred against this man, so it was hard to capture him. He was imprisoned in the dungeon the day before, and he wore it the next day."
All the men glared at each other and said, "This is simply treating us like idiots."
The landlord said: "Well..."
Zuo Yunqi suddenly said: "Even fools like you can see that something is wrong, I will still seek death like this."
"..."
[three]
The man gritted his teeth and said, "I beg your lord to see clearly."
The landlord laughed and said, "I'm a small businessman, so I'm not an adult, but I just happen to be a time traveler. Only a time traveler can tell who is a real time traveler."

The geomantic omen of the capital city of Great Liang is strange.
Every year, there are always one or two newly dead people who suddenly open their eyes, but their bodies have been seized by their souls thousands of years later.
It is even possible to fall down suddenly while walking on the road, and when you get up again, you have changed.
At the beginning, it would cause a lot of ghosts and wolves, but now everyone is emotionally stable. Those who demolish the mourning hall will tear down the mourning hall, and those who report to the government will report to the government.
However, there are very few such things outside the capital. If they encounter it by chance, if it is not handled properly, it will still cause an uproar in the local area. Therefore, the laws of Great Liang clearly stipulate that once a case of crossing is discovered across the country, it must be sent to the capital immediately and handed over to a special person for trial.
This person is the landlord.
The landlord's surname is Lou, and the name is the master.
The landlord is usually dressed as a wealthy and idle person, his eyebrows are vaguely bookish, but his eyes are fluttering and the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, and there is an energy in his body that he will never sit if he can lie down.
Everyone in the capital knew that this body was originally a civil servant of the lowest rank, but after he died and came back to life, he changed his name to Louzhu.
In short, he is a time traveler who screens out time travelers for the emperor.
[five]
The landlord said: "It is reasonable to say that usually only what you wear is pretending to be naked. But now that the late emperor has passed away, it is not impossible to attract local people to pretend to be fakes when the benefits provided to those who travel through the pilgrimage are good."
The new emperor was ambitious, and slightly relaxed the policy on traversers, intending to promote the construction of Great Liang culture. Once passed the review, the appointed time traveler can shine regardless of the court. The landlord himself is an example.
The man hurriedly said: "Please allow me to report in detail. There is a big gang in Jianghu who is good at drugs, called the Side Gate. There is a sect master in the Side Gate, called Zuo Dao."
The landlord said: "Yes."
The man said: "Zuo Dao has a son named Zuo Yunqi, this is him."
Zuo Yunqi said: "I am not Zuo Yunqi."
The man said: "There is also a big gang in Jianghu, called Qinglong Gang, that is us."
The landlord snapped his fingers, and took a sip of tea from the celadon cup held by the maid.
The landlord said: "Can you take a snack when you name it?"
[six]
The man said: "The method of using poison by the sect is extremely vicious, and countless brothers from the Qinglong Gang died tragically under their hands. Finally, God knows, two months ago, the sect made a mistake in refining medicine, and a big fire broke out. All kinds of highly poisonous things hidden in the pharmacy were burned, and the smoke scattered, and they poisoned all of them to death. But the sect master didn't leave his body, and he didn't know where he hid. And this young sect master who traveled abroad also left behind a little life."
The landlord said: "So you took advantage of the fire and kidnapped him."
"..."
The man said: "Your Excellency is wise. We mainly want to torture Zuo Yunqi and force him to reveal his father's whereabouts. Who knows that he will die after a few whips."
The landlord said: "How many whips do you have, how many whips are they?"
The man said: "Zuo Yunqi has kung fu, so it shouldn't be so careless. We just pretended to be dead and soaked him in cold water overnight."
"..."
The man said: "Sure enough, he woke up. But even though he woke up, he..."
Zuo Yunqi said: "It's not the original owner."
[seven]
The man said: "My lord, you need to know that if Zuo Yunqi is alive, he will definitely be tortured to death, and his father will not escape retribution. The timing of his being impaled must have been too coincidental."
The landlord said: "It makes sense."
The man said: "But in case he is really pierced, I will not dare to execute him without authorization, and miss the important affairs of the court. I have to come to the capital to ask you to identify the authenticity. If it is fake, it will not be too late to chop him up." .”
The landlord said: "It's not difficult, let me ask him a few questions."
Zuo Yunqi said: "You ask."
The landlord said: "You said you are not Zuo Yunqi, then who is actually in your skin?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "Jay Chou."
[Eight]
Zuo Yunqi said: "Just kidding."
[Nine]
The landlord asked, "Where do we go when we cross the road?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "Pedestrian crossing."
The landlord asked: "What is the abbreviation of League of Legends?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "Fuck, fuck."
The landlord asked: "How many Olympic rings?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "Five."
The landlord asked: "What colors are there from left to right?"
"..."
Zuo Yunqi said: "You speak from your conscience, do you remember?"
"..."
The landlord said: "Next question."
[ten]
The host said: "Next is multiple choice questions. The river flows eastward, the stars in the sky—A, shining brightly; B, not talking; C, participating in the Big Dipper; D, blinking and blinking."
Zuo Yunqi said: "C."
The landlord said: "Let us be companions in the world of mortals, and live a life-A, to be in a hurry; B, to be unrestrained; C, to be beautiful; D, to be loose."
"..."
The landlord said: "Please answer the question."
"..."
A man jumped up and said, "Why, can't you answer?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "...C."
"..."
The landlord looked at Zuo Yunqi.
Zuo Yunqi also looked at the landlord.
Everyone looked at the host.
[eleven]
The landlord stared at Zuo Yunqi for a long time, then slowly said: "He is indeed wearing it."
All the men were shocked and said: "Impossible!"
The landlord said: "I said I was wearing what I was wearing. Do you doubt my judgment?"
The man said: "Let's venture to doubt."
"..."
The landlord sneered: "If you are not a time traveler, you will never be able to answer these questions correctly. Whoever refuses to accept it, come up and try to answer two questions."
No one stood up.
The landlord said: "Since he is wearing clothes, he must not remember his father's whereabouts. It will be useless for you to smoke any more. Besides, people who travel through must be sent to the palace for His Majesty's personal trial. I will take over this person, everyone, please go back." .”
All the men muttered to each other for a long time, but the landlord had no choice but to move out of the emperor with such a big name, so he had to walk out cursing.
Zuo Yunqi tilted his head slightly, met the eyes of the bearded man in the lead, and then moved away as if nothing had happened.
[twelve]
The landlord put down the raised leg and changed the other one.
The landlord said: "You got the wrong answer. It's not about the scenery, it's about being unrestrained and unrestrained."
Zuo Yunqi said: "So that's how it is."
The landlord said: "Why did you choose C?"
Zuo Yunqi said with a negative hand: "Three longs and one short choose the shortest, three shorts and one long choose the longest, if it doesn't work, choose C."
"..."
[Thirteen]
The landlord said: "So you are fooled."
Zuo Yunqi said: "It's a trick."
The landlord said: "If you are really a time traveler, how could you not know this sentence?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "I'm from the countryside, I'm uneducated, I haven't read this poem."
"..."
The landlord said: "This is a song."
Zuo Yunqi said: "I'm from the countryside, I don't know much about it, I haven't heard this song before."
The landlord looked at Zuo Yunqi.
Zuo Yunqi also looked at the landlord.
[fourteen]
Doubts abound in the landlord's heart, and his thoughts are flying. If Zuo Yunqi was a time traveler, it is unlikely that he would not be able to answer such a simple question. But if he is a local, how can he know ABCD and recite the must-kill formulas in the examination room
Since the landlord is in charge of this field, he has done investigations. As far as he knew, there were very few records about people who traveled through the rivers and lakes. Even if they searched carefully, it would be impossible to find such details.
The host couldn't completely trust Zuo Yunqi.
But he couldn't explain Zuo Yunqi's understanding of modern knowledge.
Moreover, to put it mysteriously, he always felt that there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity between the young man's words and deeds, as if he had reunited after a long absence.
The landlord is sure that he has never seen Zuo Yunqi in his life. So... the previous life
The landlord looked at Zuo Yunqi.
The landlord said: "What was your name in your last life?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "Andy Lau."
[fifteen]
The landlord said: "Interesting." He chuckled twice, "You stay upstairs for now."
Zuo Yunqi shivered slightly.
Zuo Yunqi said: "Why?"
The landlord said: "This building will play once every month to report the new movements of the traversers. Then you will be called into the palace, and His Majesty will decide whether you will be appointed as a talent, or thrown into the dungeon as a trouble."
Zuo Yunqi said: "It's only the middle of the month now, with your efficiency, aren't you afraid that things will change if it's too late?"
The host said: "Indeed, the discovery of a new traverser is an emergency, and it is possible to report it immediately. But in the eyes of His Majesty, the traverser is 'not my kind' after all, and even if he is kind enough to appoint us, he will arrange us to scattered places. It's rare for me to get together with the same kind, so you can talk to me more these days."
"..."
The landlord said: "Why, aren't you excited to see fellow villagers?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "...excited."
The corner of the landlord's mouth raised, and he said viciously: "Then why didn't you show it?"
Zuo Yunqi didn't make a sound for a while, rolled his eyes, and fell straight to the ground.
The landlord said: "It's too exaggerated."
The landlord said: "Hey, it's too exaggerated."
The landlord said: "Doctor!"
[sixteen]
When the lights came on, in a certain room of the inn outside the city, the bearded man said in a deep voice: "It can be regarded as having passed this first hurdle."
Another man who followed him during the day said: "Master, don't worry, the master of the sect is courageous, resourceful, and the plan will be carried out smoothly."
The bearded man sighed, "I hope so."
The follower said: "Sect Master, we have been in the Qinglong Gang for many days, and now we have sent the Young Sect Master away from under their noses. If we stay any longer, we may have long nights and dreams. We should withdraw quickly."
The bearded man said: "It's just that after leaving, there is no way to inquire about Yunqi's situation."
The attendant said deeply: "Young sect master said that no news is the best news."
"..."
The bearded man said: "Where did this kid learn such nonsense words?"
The follower said: "This subordinate doesn't know."
The bearded man said: "What five rings and six rings, have you heard of it?"
The follower said: "This subordinate doesn't know."
The curly bearded man said: "Yes. As expected of my son."
"..."
[Seventeen]
The landlord sits in the study and writes with a pen. The pen is Xiangzhu Zishuanghao, and the paper is pink paper pinned to gold paper, and even the white fingertips holding the pen reveal a sense of luxury and lust.
The landlord's main business for a living is not the identification of time-traveling people.
He manages a building in the city.
The building is seven stories high, which is the standard approved by the current emperor. Integrating restaurants, inns, Goulan and gambling workshops, with advanced service concept, and the extremely gorgeous and magnificent Biwa Zhuzhen, it can be said to be in the limelight. Because there was no plaque when it was completed, it was simply called "a very tall building" by the people.
Later, Shengenlong's family gave an inscription mounted on a jade scroll, and wrote "The landlord is a good man, and his life is safe."
[eighteen]
The landlord wrote a letter.
"League Leader Lin: I heard that two months ago, there was a fire in a side pharmacy in the rivers and lakes, and the whole gang died. It's worn out. Looking at this matter, there are many coincidences. I would like to ask the leader to check whether the case of the sect is true, and if there is any doubt, please let me know."
The landlord handed the letter to the servants, turned around and went to the guest room.
Zuo Yunqi lay on the bed with his eyes closed.
He was covered in bandages and put on clean clothes, making his face even more stern and refined. Although he is not very old, he already has the air of a young master.
The landlord leaned on the bedpost with his arms folded, staring intently at his peaceful sleeping appearance.
The landlord said, "Are you planning to faint until the end of the month?"
"..."
[nineteen]
The landlord said: "I have also fed this medicine and slept, and I will pass it if I pretend it again."
"..."
The landlord said: "If you still don't wake up when I count to three, I will notify the Qinglong Gang. Three."
"..."
The host said: "Come here, today let the kitchen cook tenderloin with plum snow in the twelfth lunar month, steamed crab with ten-year flower carving, chicken with glutinous rice in West Lake lotus leaves, shiitake mushrooms in ginseng broth, and candied longan and fried golden cake after dinner."
"Yes."
"Bring it all to Mr. Zuo's bed, and I'll sit here and eat."
…
Zuo Yunqi said, "Wow."
