Chapter 26 Questioned
"The whole village was burned? Which village are you from? If such a big thing really happened, the news would definitely be reported. Why haven't I seen such news recently?"
The middle-aged woman questioned her, paused, looked up and down at Li Zhongwu's eyes, frowned and said, "Besides, you are wearing a suit, I don't look like a villager when you look at you!"
Such doubts were expected by Li Zhongwu.
So he didn't panic at all, just said calmly: "Those who have been on the news, the mysterious village that was burned to death on the outskirts of Black Rock City is our village. As for me, I am not like a villager, it is because I have been studying since I was a child and have left the village for a while recently."
Middle-aged woman: "???"
The other three: "???"
The office suddenly fell into silence.
The middle-aged woman frowned and looked at Li Zhongwu up and down, and hesitated: "Are you sure? The village outside Black Stone City that was burned down together with the forest fire... is it your village?"
Another woman expressed doubts, "Is it impossible? The news said that no survivors were found in that village after the fire!"
In fact, this is what he just took out from his portable space.
It was what he got in the world of "One Man's Martial Arts".
Everyone was stunned.
Li Zhongwu lowered his head slightly, his expression seemed a little dim, and he replied in a low voice: "When the fire started, I was hunting outside. When I saw a fire in the direction of the village, it was too late to rush over. The whole village was engulfed by the fire, and I couldn't rush in at all."
Today is the first time he has taken it out to show his people.
When Li Zhongwu was in that movie world, he picked up one. Because he thought it was interesting, he just put it in his portable space and never threw it away.
Li Zhongwu looked at her, "Lijia Village."
This Yan, a great villain in the movie world, was imitated by Feng Yuxiu, and it has no value in itself.
...
"What did you mean by this?"
Want evidence?
This was also expected by Li Zhongwu.
In that movie world, every time Feng Yuxiu challenged and killed a master, he would leave such an imitation of the hall in front of the master next to the master's corpse.
"Yes, can this thing prove that you are a villager in that village?"
There are also some gold, silver ingots, copper coins, calligraphy and paintings, and even some good tea leaves.
Li Zhongwu looked up at her and said, "I don't know."
Suddenly, a female clerk said in surprise: "Hey, have you noticed it? His accent is a bit strange!"
The other three clerks were attracted by their attention again, pausing their whispers.
"It's true! Anyway, I can't think of the accent of which city in Dayan is like him."
The reactions of these four clerks at this time were still within Li Zhongwu's expectations.
Li Zhongwu looked at each other with the middle-aged woman, and his tone was still calm, "It's not surprising. The patriarch told us that the ancestors of our village led their family to hide there because they were hiding from the war. Therefore, we should have been compatriots of the same language and race."
Another female clerk answered: "You don't know? Why didn't you go to Black Rock City? You said you don't know?"
After all, he really is not from that village.
The middle-aged woman took the aluminum swallow suspiciously and looked up and down in confusion. The other three clerks gathered over to look at the little swallow, which was only about one inch long and wide.
"Swallow in front of the hall? Isn't this just a...a little thing?"
All four clerks were digesting what Li Zhongwu had just said.
The middle-aged woman looked suspicious and asked again: "You just said that you have never left your village since you were a child and have never been to the outside world. Why do you say that you said Dayan? Moreover, you just said that after you came to Tianfu City and read our books, why do you recognize our words?"
"Hey, his accent looks like the accent of our Dayan city?"
Li Zhongwu looked at her with a twilight expression, "I don't have a map. I have grown up in the village since I was a child. The biggest range of activities is the forest around the village. I don't know that the city closest to our village outside the forest is the Black Stone City. After the fire, I saw someone helping to bury my tribe members, so I just found a direction, walked forward, and walked forward. After walking for more than ten days, I arrived at Tianfu City. I also came here and read some of your books and your TV. Only then did I know that Black Stone City is closest to our village."
After she said this, the others realized.
But before he came here today, he looked through it carefully and there was nothing that could prove that he was a villager in the burned village.
After a while, the middle-aged woman who first received him suddenly asked, "What's the name of your village?"
The third woman said: "And, if what you said is true, why don't you go to Blackstone City to register for household registration? Isn't Blackstone City much closer to your village? Why come to our Tianfu City?"
The other three people's eyes lit up, as if they had discovered a blind spot.
By the way, there are many things in his portable space, such as food and drink, such as various styles of ancient costumes, modern clothing, shoes, disguise items, etc.
The reason why he took out this imitation of Tangqianyan was not to use it to prove his identity. This little thing is just an introduction.
The office fell into silence again.
"Isn't this bought from a street stall?"
The middle-aged woman did not participate in the discussion of the three colleagues. After thinking about it, she asked Li Zhongwu again, "Although you are serious, it is unreasonable to say it. How do you prove that you are a villager in that village? You can't say you are from that village, so we believe you, right?"
When one of the female clerks saw that he said this, they remained silent and stopped talking. They couldn't help asking: "Then, why didn't you go to Black Stone City to register for your household registration? Why did you come to our Tianfu City?"
Under the gaze of the four clerks, Li Zhongwu seemed to think about it, reached into his arms and took out a small aluminum swallow, and handed it to the middle-aged woman.
The only male clerk in the office didn't say anything, but instead held his hands in his chest and squinted his eyes to observe Li Zhongwu.
"This swallow in front of the hall is a birthday gift from our patriarch. You Dayan shouldn't have such things. Do you think it can be used as evidence?"
At this time, facing the doubts of the four clerks, Li Zhongwu sighed and said, "In the old days, the swallow in front of the hall of Wang Xie flew into the homes of ordinary people. There is an allusion to this swallow in front of the hall. When the patriarch gave it to me, he told me that in ancient times there was a dynasty that liked to summon masters from all walks of life to the capital to compete. If the last person wins, he would be awarded the top martial arts scholar and have a good future. The loser would be given a swallow in front of the hall. The hidden meaning of it is that people who practice martial arts, no matter how good they practice martial arts, they are just a swallow in front of the eaves of the imperial family. The patriarch gave it to me to remind me not to always think about going to the outside world because of his good martial arts skills. He advised me to stay in the village and live a stable life."
Four clerks: "???"
Their expressions show that they obviously have never heard of this allusion.
Suddenly, the only male clerk raised his eyebrows, "So, your martial arts are very good? What's the name of the kung fu you practice?"
