The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

"Then you send it to him first and then come back."

Gulizal then jumped up and ran away with the plate in hand. He was so reckless and lively that he didn't look like a girl.

Gulizal came to Nikola Tesla's laboratory, and Nikola Tesla didn't even raise his head: "Put it there."

Gulizal put down his plate, but saw something weirder than the others in front of the strange foreigner with a pale face. There was an electric light flashing silently between two round irons, reflecting Nikola Tesla from time to time. His face turned blue.

Gulizal, who had never seen artificial electricity before, was so frightened that he backed away and screamed "Ah".

But it hit something and fell to the ground.

Nikola Tesla looked up in surprise, and when he saw this beautiful little girl with a dusty face, he frowned and said, "Get out."

The look was so majestic that Gulizar was so frightened that he ran away.

Nikola Tesla picked up the cylindrical honeycomb-shaped object that was neither gold nor jade on the ground, and after thinking about it, he wanted to put it on the test bench on the left.

When passing over the device, the electric light between the two pieces of iron rushed toward the companion creature of the Starry Sky Root.

This time it was Nikola Tesla's turn to say "Ah" in surprise...

…

Zhao Chuanxin was not worried about Gulizal spying on some great secret.

This is like taking a copy of the most advanced science and technology and breaking it into pieces and showing it to the native people of Vanuatu in the South Pacific. The most polite thing they would do is to curse you and tell you to go away. If they get angry, they might even cross you. Grilled and eaten.

Seeing Gulizar coming back in a panic, Zhao Chuanxin asked, "What's wrong?"

"That man is so scary."

"Oh, that's it. Then hurry up and eat."

Gulizar: "..."

After Zhao Chuanxin put the haggis into the pot, he took the plate and wore Gulizar to the restaurant to eat.

Only then did Gulizar start to look at it seriously.

The walls of this room were lined with transparent things that she had never seen before, one by one from the ground to the roof, and she could clearly see the desert outside.

There are six rows of dining tables in the house, all made of rocks and firmly fixed to the ground.

Next to each dining table, there are two rows of stone chairs welded to the ground.

In addition, there is a bar with fixed high stone stools in front of the bar.

There is finally some furniture made of other materials behind the bar - a floor-to-ceiling solid wood wine cabinet with Indoping shochu, chrysanthemum wine, Chivas Regal whiskey, etc...

Zhao Chuanxin placed the dinner plate on the bar, and Gulizar sat next to him.

Zhao Chuanxin buried his head in eating, and Gulizar tilted his head to look at him while eating.

Seeing that Zhao Xin was eating without any distractions, she had no choice but to say: "It's so delicious, Zhao Xin, where are you from?"

"The last stop is Hankou."

Gulizar thought the cowboy hat was in the way, so he took it off and put it aside: "Where is Hankou?"

"Yangtze."

"Is there a black river leader?"

Zhao Chuanxin ate as fast as the wind, eating in three or two mouthfuls, and after a few times, the noodles and meat on the plate were gone.

He put down his chopsticks and took a sip of the slightly cold tea: "Why do you talk so much? You eat, sit, and sit, look at how you behave?"

He stayed with Nikola Tesla every day and almost became autistic.

Gulizar arrived unexpectedly, and he was still a little unaccustomed to it.

It was quiet here before, Nikola Tesla ate in the laboratory and he ate in the restaurant.

Gulizal swallowed half of the noodles and pouted: "Humph."

Zhao Chuanxin lit a cigarette, turned around, leaned on the bar with his elbows and puffed out smoke.

Gulizar could not remain silent for three seconds and spoke again: "Xin Zhao, tell me a story. In the past, when Dadang's legs could still walk, you told me stories."

"I'm not your dadang."

She held chopsticks unskilledly with one hand and shook Zhao Chuanxin's arm with the other.

Zhao Chuanxin was helpless: "Okay, let me tell you a story about the ugly duckling..."

Gulizar finally ate and listened to stories honestly.

When the ugly duckling turned into a white swan, she said happily: "Does this story tell us not to look down on ourselves?"

"No." Zhao Chuanxin shook his head: "This story tells us that the ugly duckling turned into a beautiful white swan, not because it worked hard, but because its parents were originally white swans."

Gulizal half-cut noodles hung on his lips: "..."

"Xin Zhao, why can you run so fast?"

In a flash, no one was seen. She had been curious.

Zhao Chuanxin stared directly at the dark night outside the floor-to-ceiling window: "Maybe it's because I have strong bones."

"..." Gulizar said: "Xin Zhao, you are lying. Tell me another story."

Zhao Chuanxin thought for a while, picked up an idle lantern at the bar, and erected it a few meters away from the floor-to-ceiling window.

When I came back and looked at it, I saw that the lantern was slightly swayed by the wind, and the soft light was pulled back and forth, and the artistic conception was formed.

He nodded with satisfaction: "If there's a story to tell, let me sing you a song."

As soon as I stretched out my hand, there was a guitar, and the strings were plucked: the wind passing through the wilderness, you walk slower. I tell you in silence that I am drunk...

Li Shutong once commented on Zhao Chuanxin's voice, saying that his voice reaches the Dantian downwards and the nasal cavity upwards. It has a strong resonance in the chest, and the fundamental part contains a strong violent texture.

He is mid-bass, but his voice has a special characteristic. Even if it hits high notes, it will not break the sound. Instead, it will sound like a lion roaring and a tiger roaring.

Li Shutong once said that even if Zhao Chuanxin has a playful smile, he still has the miraculous ability to make people concentrate and listen when he speaks, because you can tell from his voice that he is somewhat dangerous.

Gulizal felt that this song was very appetizing, and he was very satisfied with it.

After Zhao Chuanxin finished singing, she also finished eating and volunteered to wash the dishes.

Zhao Chuanxin hurriedly said: "Don't use Camel Xiangzi. I will clean it myself later. We have a well."

He knows some local customs.

Gulizal blinked: "I wash it with water too."

"Oh." Zhao Chuanxin said, "Then go and brush it."

"..."

Gulizar carried the plate and jumped to the kitchen again.

She ran back as fast as she could: "It's done."

"Do you have to talk when you are sitting, and run and jump when you lift your legs?"

Gulizar nodded: "Yes, I started herding when I was ten years old. Ah Nang said that if a person keeps talking outside, the wolves will not dare to approach. This is how I have not encountered a pack of wolves for many years.

I only have one sheepdog, and it can't take care of the sheep, so I have to run faster to help. "

Zhao Chuanxin imagined her muttering to the sheep and shepherd dogs alone in the wild, opened her mouth, and finally showed a gentle smile: "Then you cut all the firewood at home?"

"Well, Dadang injured his leg many years ago and can't get off the ground. Ah Nang is not in good health. I have been saving the firewood for several years and I don't want to burn it."

"How did you get your leg injured?"

Gulizal talked about some past events she knew.

In the 1970s, Agub, the war agent of the British invaders, led tens of thousands of puppet troops equipped with British guns and occupied almost the entire Xinjiang.

In 1875, Zuo Zongtang, a Hunanese who was more than 60 years old, carried a coffin in the Western Expedition and ended Agub's cruel rule in one year.

A territory of 1.66 million square kilometers has been preserved.

As the saying goes, before the general has returned his money, the descendants of Hunan and Hunan are all over the Tianshan Mountains. Three thousand miles of newly planted willows attract the spring breeze to Yuguan.

In fact, not only the Hunan Army participated in the war, but also local soldiers recruited into the army. Gulizal's father joined the army when he was only a teenager. After the war, he was shot in the lumbar spine, but he was still able to walk.

After the war, he traveled eastward with Zuo Zongtang, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. He received some reward money for his bravery in battle, married a wife, and settled down with cattle, sheep, and camels.

While traveling long distances to herd, a few years after giving birth to Gulizal, an injury occurred and her lower limbs became paralyzed.

It’s a miracle that I’m alive to this day.

Gulizar is now the main labor force in the family, doing everything from cutting firewood, grazing, and killing sheep and chickens. Her mother is also in poor health and at most she does some work at home and takes care of her father.

Zhao Chuanxin lit a cigarette and listened quietly.

Gulizal was very out-of-the-box. After briefly telling the story, he immediately said expectantly: "It's your turn. Tell me a story."

Zhao Chuanxin looked at his watch: "The haggis soup is ready. I'll give you a bowl to drink. After you drink it, I'll boil water for you to take a bath and then go to bed."
