Bei Chao pulled Huang Xuan and walked towards a man in a suit who was carrying red wine in a bronze cup - it was a bit reluctant to say that he was wearing a suit, but in terms of appearance, the difference was definitely not bigger than a Chinese tunic suit and a suit, but He was wearing a black tights lining, which was tight and thick, and of course there was no room for a tie.

"This is Shi Yu's subordinate." Bei Chao said in an introduction tone.

In the Chengming Hall, both travelers and aborigines are of yellow race, but not all of them are Chinese in terms of face shape. This gentleman who drinks wine from ancient utensils is no exception. Judging from his appearance, he should be from Central Asia. He is a human race with very low cheekbones, a round face, and a flat face, as if someone had plastic surgery with a roller.

Huang Xuan rolled his eyes and showed a smile. Before Bei Chao could speak, he stretched out his hand to shake the gentleman's hand and said, "Hello, I'm Huang Xuan. Please don't disturb everyone's party."

The other person was about the same height as him, so Huang Xuan raised his hand slightly. Although it was a bit awkward, it allowed the wide sleeves to slide down, exposing his wrists.

This is a standard first-century etiquette tutorial. Shi Yu originally held the bronze jute in his right hand with a lazy expression. But now he saw Huang Xuan's appearance, but he suddenly became energetic. He handed the wine glass to his left hand, but felt it was inappropriate, turned around and put it behind him. He held hands with Huang Xuan and said, "Mr. Huang Xuan has just arrived? If you don't mind, let me register for you."

Huang Xuan was stunned for a moment. Lorraine directly handed him the 18th-level authority key that recorded the coordinates.

Seeing this key that shone with metallic luster and complicated lines, Shi Yu's smile became more sincere. Only then could you clearly see his nose that was as flat as his face.

Shi Yu took out something that looked like an energy chain and slowly swiped it over the key. As he moved, he said in unskilled Chinese: "I wonder how long Mr. Huang plans to stay here? We are planning to do it for the first time in Tianhou. The second dividend will be distributed after 7 days, and the time of the third dividend will be determined by those who are still alive.”

What he calls dividends is naturally what Huang Xuan understands as sharing spoils. Huang Xuan didn't know their rules, but he pretended not to care and said: "It should stay for a while, but I'm not sure." He is now completely Treat Shi Yu as the hotel lobby manager.

Saying this, Shi Yu said more respectfully: "No problem, your plane channel information has been recorded. As long as you are still in this plane, energy and energy will be automatically distributed."

"Sorry to trouble you." Huang Xuan smiled reservedly, as if he was attending a family anniversary celebration. Shi Yu responded quickly without hesitation.

Huang Xuan smiled in his heart, patted Bei Chao's arm with his right hand, and said, "Should I go in first?"

"Okay." Bei Chao still hadn't figured out why this guy from his own plane, who was famous for looking down on others, suddenly changed his gender.

Huang Xuan turned around and walked into the main hall. He didn't see Wang Yun, nor did he see Lu Bu. He just looked at the official ranks of the people present, but it made people doubt that this was a summit of senior leaders of the three countries.

Shi Yu watched Huang Xuan pick up a glass of red wine and leave. When he turned around, his smile cooled down and he asked Bei Chao in a cold tone: "Where did you get him?"

Bei Chao was more familiar with this guy's cold face now, and said nonchalantly: "I was patrolling near the west gate and saw someone using an all-steel sniper rifle, so I went over to take a look, and found that he shot the man named Dong Zhuo."

He emphasized the word all-steel. Although he didn't know Huang Xuan's authority, he knew that to carry something as big as an all-steel sniper rifle, all the resources of level 4 authority would not be enough for transportation. In fact, a biological sniper rifle costs very little. The most proud thing about Shi Yu in front of him is to carry a small metal pistol with him in every plane - after the most serious space-time shock in the past tens of millions of years occurred, the legendary and wonderful era of big planes came to an end. It's over, the wealth accumulated over countless generations has been blown away by the wind, and countless colonial planes have been wiped out. Although many new planes formed after the era of big planes have been discovered over the years, the era when people can waste the resources they have is long gone, and for many people still For people who miss and even admire that era, waste seems to have become a status symbol, just like the glorious nobles of the Planar Era.

As expected, Shi Yu visibly swallowed when he heard the word all-steel sniper rifle. With more energy in plane travel, you can gain more rewards and be safer. He came to this backward era with a sniper rifle. , and it is an all-steel sniper rifle purely used for waste. If it is not one of those ancient glorious families, what else could it be? He thought again of Huang Xuan's handshake gesture, which was simply a model of etiquette in the open source era. He unconsciously stretched out his hands and exposed the tights from the cuffs. He smiled proudly and said to himself: "If the professor knew that I met a glorious nobleman here and used the etiquette of the open source era, I will definitely be allowed to give a lesson to the school girls.”

The last part of his words was in his native language, but the Northern Dynasty didn't understand. After saying "huh?", Shi Yu became impatient again. He waved his hand and said, "You can go on patrol again. Don't let new travelers come." I don’t even know.”

For them, instead of spending resources applying to find travelers, it is more practical to save their lives. It does not cost much energy to bring more low-level travelers. It is enough for the base to be sure that this place has not been colonized by certain planes.

The Northern Dynasty was also used to this guy's temperament. R001, like most planes that survived the shock of time and space, was dominated by glorious nobles and ordinary nobles. Travelers like him who graduated from the academy always had to be exploited first, and then Only then can they have the opportunity to become independent and become a new noble.

Huang Xuan was swaying in the hall with a glass of red wine from an unknown age. It still tasted like red wine, but it was completely different from any red wine he had ever drunk. Everyone in the hall seemed quite friendly, and every traveler was polite. No matter which era or plane they came from, no matter how strange their clothes were, everyone tried to make their weird etiquette show through. The standard is appropriate, but a person with a bold personality like the Northern Dynasty is obviously out of place here.

Such gatherings make Huang Xuan feel like he has returned to his family celebrations when he was a child. It was the era when the family was at its most prosperous. When most Chinese people had not met foreigners, the Huang family had already begun to invite people from Eastern and Western Europe, America, the Middle East, African guests attended the anniversary party. Just like this, gentlemen wearing Mao suits, suits, and burqas are trying to communicate with everyone around them in their most charming way and most persuasive language - they are trying various etiquettes: shaking hands, Wiping faces, kissing, hugging, and touching noses, no matter whether others understand or know it, but from those expressions and actions, we can know that these etiquettes are solemn and standard.

At that time, Xiao Huang Xuan could only keep rolling his black eyes and looking around curiously, but today, he seemed to really get into it.

Most of the travelers wore loose but sharp-lined clothes that could barely be called formal gowns, while those who were obviously of lower status wore Han Dynasty robes. This is also related to energy consumption. Just like the Northern Dynasties, the resources he can use may only be enough to bring a few clothes.

Huang Xuan was immediately noticed by people while wandering around. Because they chose the same time period, people here arrived at about the same time and became familiar with each other quickly. However, Huang Xuan's appearance did not look like a low-level traveler. What low-level traveler Will he have a bulging bag in his waist and carry a mechanical pistol from the open source era

However, no one came forward to greet Huang Xuan. There was no introducer and he was not the organizer. It was obviously inappropriate to rush forward.

Huang Xuan was also happy to wander around the hall, listen to people's conversations, and soon understood something.

These travelers should have arrived at a similar time to him, but not all of them landed in Chang'an. In order to gather nearby travelers, the organizer, Lu Min mentioned in the Northern Dynasties, spent about 1 day.

In the next two days, they seemed to have directly contacted Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty in the name of the sage. It sounds like this was probably their common strategy.

In addition, what puzzles Huang Xuan is that people here don't seem to understand the Three Kingdoms era. According to Lorraine, this means that no one is from the P plane, and the P plane should all be in the desert of time and space. If you bring it, this may be the edge of the desert of time and space.

After listening for a while, Huang Xuan turned his back to the crowd and said: "Lorraine, I remember that we also grabbed a P-class 16th level authority key from Guy. That means that there are still advanced planes in the P-class plane. ah?"

Lorraine was silent for a moment and said slowly: "That key should be left over from the era of the Great Plane. Judging from the appearance of these travelers now, standard P001 either failed to withstand the shock of time and space, or it has been compressed and sealed."

"Austerity and closure?"

"Disconnect from other planes."

It sounded like a closed country. Huang Xuan wanted to ask again, but he saw a young man wearing something like a small dress walking over with three or five people. The people around him nodded and said hello when they saw him passing by. He was also gentle and elegant. In return, he stood a few meters away from Huang Xuan, smiled and said to Huang Xuan: "Is this Mr. Huang Xuan? I am Lu Min from R001, a level 16 authority."

Huang Xuan smiled shyly, as if he didn't know what to say. He took a step forward and said, "I am Huang Xuan." Then it was gone.

Huang Xuan didn't look like this five or six years ago, but he still has two shy cousins. If he smiles like that, he really seems like a guy who is not good at words.

Lu Min had a handsome face, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had a face as beautiful as a crown jewel. He also smiled slightly and took the lead in extending his right hand, but looking at the way his feet were slightly turned inwards, it seemed that he was still not used to it.

Generally speaking, if the similarity is above 0%, the basic information of the plane, such as race and resources, will not be much different. If the similarity is above 50%, the gap will never be larger than that between Africa and Europe. In addition, the development of planes has its own inevitable rules. The objective manifestation of this inertia is the so-called buffer zone energy, which means that in planes with a similarity of more than 0%, although communication is difficult, it can still be achieved. of.

In addition, the similarity test is still mainly based on humans. Increased communication between different planes will also increase the similarity, while the plunder or development of the colonial plane will reduce the similarity. This is why the In the era of planes, the similarity between planes is not very high.

Huang Xuan found that the etiquette he had learned since childhood seemed to be of great use here, so he always maintained a warm smile, shook his arm slightly reservedly, and then took his hand back.

Probably relying on his quick reaction speed, Lu Min also let go of his clenched hands the moment Huang Xuan let go. He was sweating in his heart, but with a calm smile on his face, he used a Korean-Japanese style expression. The language said: "Huang Xuanzu, I heard that you brought a sniper rifle and just shot an aboriginal named Dong Zhuo?"

"Just call me Huang Xuan, Mr. Lu." Huang Xuan showed an embarrassed smile and said: "The key I came here this time was given by someone else, so I didn't know you were here, so I did it myself. I'm sorry. " Listening to the people nearby, he already knew that this was a "hunting" activity that everyone was involved in - some large families or high-level bases had the ability to create keys or mark plane information. When they encountered When reaching a plane that is not worth transforming and colonizing, valuable plane data will be made into coordinate rulers or keys, and then sold, and everyone present will be the buyer.

Hearing that Huang Xuan had the key, Lu Min tried his best to put away the surprise on his face and pretended to be calm: "It doesn't matter, it's just a little bit of pause, but I have two friends who really want to see your sniping. Gun, haha, I hope you don’t mind.”

According to Huang Xuan's understanding, looking at a sniper rifle is like when a gentleman said "Let me see your horse" at home. It sounded like a complete compliment, so he took it out with a smile. In fact, if Lu Min wanted to rob him, he would obediently take it out.

"It's really good. Is it a collection that Mr. Huang likes?" Lu Min is obviously good at socializing. In modern language, he is a guy with high emotional intelligence. When he heard Huang Xuan call him Mr. Lu, he knew that the other person liked this. The title is not the "Stop" they are used to, but the Rongguang family has some quirks, which can always be understood.

Just like its size, the Barrett MX109 is always famous for attracting attention or firing bullets as thick as eyeballs. Several people gathered around the table to pretend to watch. Among them, Shi Yu, who knew the most about firearms, said: "Mr. Huang, this is also an open source A weapon of the times?”

Huang Xuan didn't know what the open source era was, so he just smiled softly and shouted in his heart: Don't say anything, don't say anything.

At this time, being unpredictable is indeed a very good shield.

Hearing that there were weapons from the open source era, many lower-level travelers also gathered around, and even many court ministers came over to see the treasures praised by the "sages". In this peak cold During the meal, they were obviously listeners and subordinates.

Lu Min didn't know much about firearms, so he just stood next to Huang Xuan and chatted with him wordlessly. Although Shi Yu has an arrogant personality, his knowledge is pretty good as far as the history of weapons is concerned. He can even tell the firing method of this old gunpowder weapon. He explained it to the few disciples of the aristocratic family who didn't understand next to him, while gently explaining it to them. He unloaded the magazine and immediately heard ups and downs of admiration from around him.

Huang Xuan and Lu Min turned their heads strangely, and heard Shi Yu whisper: "Holy Infant, these bullets are also made of steel."

The others also sighed in unison, looking at Huang Xuan with increasingly different eyes. The few disciples of the aristocratic family who were disapproving just now also stopped their impetuosity and learned Huang Xuan's etiquette in a good manner - this is what is expected in high-level planes. It often happens that when two travelers with different statuses meet, unless conditions do not allow it, of course the lower status traveler will accommodate the higher one. This also means that Huang Xuan's super wasteful ability has been recognized. .

For those who are short of resources and have not yet recovered from the shock of time and space, using all-steel bullets is a luxury. Of course, this does not mean that everyone present cannot afford it. Any traveler above the level of You can bring an all-steel sniper rifle and dozens of all-steel bullets, but why? —Even for travelers with noble titles, their ultimate goal is to make money. They have biological weapons that do not consume transportation energy, and energy magazines that do not consume transportation energy. Why should they carry an antique that is of no use at all? weapons, and thus increase the cost by two or three times

Of course, compared to Huang Xuan's era, energy in planes such as R001 is several times or even dozens of times cheaper, but this kind of cheapness will not be enjoyed by ordinary travelers. They need to report to the base. The owners pay for the energy and share the profits with them. It costs one money to buy the plane ruler, one money to use the plane base, and one money to charge. They are like taxi drivers who use other people's cars.

At the same time, most of what travelers obtain during plane travel is buffer zone energy. This energy must be exchanged for energy in plane exchanges before they can be used. The direct way for them to obtain normal energy is through materials—such as food. , Products such as calligraphy and painting rarely have a market in developed areas.

Therefore, even a descendant of a noble family like Lu Min did not have much energy to carry a completely useless and expensive all-steel sniper rifle.

This is true nobility. Everyone is thinking this in their hearts.

In the eyes of these travelers, all-steel bullets are like a pair of Louis Vuitton socks, a pair of Chanel underwear, and a pack of toilet paper with a picture of Riverside During the Qingming Festival.

True glory is seen in the details.

Huang Xuan once again responded to the somewhat crazy travelers with a shy smile.

Shi Yu took advantage of everyone's interest and asked to see the pistol on his waist.

Although he felt like he was being disarmed, Huang Xuan handed the pistol to Shi Yu with a smile. He is just a paper tiger. Lorraine's maximum output energy cannot stop Lu Min's three or four energy attacks, let alone the battle between bases. Even the slightly higher-level travelers present can knock him down. he.

However, no one would try to offend a member of the Rongguang family. Shi Yu took the pistol with both hands with a blushing face. Now if you want to find his nose, you can only focus on the reddest point.

"This gun is called Colt, which is relatively famous." Huang Xuan added a sentence casually, just like saying that my horse is 1/8 Arabian blood, which makes people feel extraordinary.

Of course, these travelers who have never heard of the Three Kingdoms will not know what Colt is, but it is enough to know that it is famous.

With Lorraine's manufacturing level, zero bullets are inevitably made of steel. Even the handles and other parts he modified are made of extremely wasteful engineering plastics and resin materials. Such a simple antique atmosphere will instantly make the gun that has just gained courage The children of the aristocratic families were defeated - look at them, this is the aristocratic life.

Several people with 18th and 19th level permissions have passed on. Except for Lu Min, they are the highest level travelers in this plane. The method of dividing permissions in planes such as R001 still continues the rules of the era of big planes. The basis is to be able to Enjoy the maximum output of the base, including information, energy, key transmission and other resources. The biggest difference between Huang Xuan and them is that Lorraine's base level determines Huang Xuan's authority level, while other travelers have higher-level plane bases, but due to contributions and other reasons, they are not enough to obtain higher authority.

Just in terms of energy, to put it in a more popular way, Huang Xuan has the same energy output power as the R001 level 0 authority, but it does not necessarily have the same duration - this determines the income status of that authority, whether Enough to buy more energy.

Several courtiers of the Han Dynasty were also very interested in the Colt. The "sages" did not refuse to share this surprise with them, but no matter how hard these Confucian scholars looked, they would not understand what this small thing was. What.

In the midst of the commotion, a eunuch came slowly with a yellow silk held high, and the male duck shouted: "The ministers have received the order..."

The travelers slowly avoided the center of the hall, and a group of old men knelt down to receive the order. At this time, Shi Yu walked to Huang Xuan with silk to please, returned the Colt to him and said, "Mr. Huang. What’s the plan this time? We all want to hear your opinion.”

"Yes, yes!" Someone immediately echoed, completely ignoring the anger of the Han officials.

Huang Xuan pursed his lips and said, "Actually, I'm just strolling around. What was your original plan?"

Some people think: "Look at people walking around with all-steel sniper rifles and pistols from the open source era. If it weren't for the strong base behind them, they are clearly seeking death." But they don't know that Huang Xuan went to an era that was better than theirs. It is much safer. After all, it is a desert zone of time and space. The energy is low and the risks are lower.

A tall and thin middle-aged man walked out of the crowd, shook hands with Huang Xuan just like he did before, and then quickly let go, saying: "I am Yue Zhongquan, an 18th-level authority, this time I made the plan.”

"Hello." Huang Xuan smiled politely, feeling like a department-level cadre. (To be continued)
