Chapter 181 Qingming Immortal Sword Slays Qianyuan Demon Ancestor(2/3)
"Son."
Xia Shumin, who was sitting in the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt, was very interested in off-road vehicles and asked curiously: "How much does this car cost... Oh no, how much does it cost?"
"About three to four million. If it has not been modified, it would be around one million."
"Four million...that's two hundred gold?"
Xia Shumin has her own conversion method.
One gold is ten taels of silver, which is about three months' income of the labor force in Yongkang City, a little over three taels a month.
She asked the young master that an ordinary person on earth has five thousand yuan a month, so five thousand yuan is approximately equivalent to three taels of silver.
In other words, an ordinary family in Yongkang County would need to go without food and drink for fifty years to buy a car like this, but if her family wanted to buy one, they could buy many.
So, the young master is indeed quite poor~, hee hee.
"Compared to Sister Wan's labor car?"
After the car started, Xia Shumin turned her head and asked the young master with a smile.
"The name of her car is Rolls-Royce. The model...is also called the Rolls-Royce Phantom. It costs about more than ten million."
"Ah, a carriage worth more than five hundred gold... Sister Wan is really rich!"
"Hahaha."
Chen Ji couldn't help laughing.
Little lady, this method of converting based on the money a family can earn is more intuitive and simpler than the method of converting the purchasing power of rice?
However, if you come to modern times with five hundred taels of gold, you will definitely not be able to buy a Rolls-Royce. What five thousand yuan can buy in modern times is far more than three taels of silver in ancient times.
In the final analysis, productivity is still different.
"Should I leave first?"
Chen Ji shouted from the car window to Chu Nantian, Qianyuan Demon Ancestor and others outside.
Sitting in the car were Wang Shaodang and Liu Sangu. Among them, the Thief Saint was the one who got on shamelessly, while the others were too embarrassed to sit down.
"Master Chen, please go first!"
People in the Jianghu community were very polite.
Needless to say, if they encounter obstacles on the road later, they will move them away.
Chen Ji stepped on the accelerator, and the off-road vehicle roared off.
Xia Shumin sat in the passenger seat and looked around curiously.
She experienced something new and strange again.
First, the young master drove her, and second, it was pitch dark here, which was different from the last time she took Sister Wan's Rolls Royce car in a bustling and bustling city.
The scene illuminated by the car lights was completely icy and snowy, with dilapidated ruins everywhere, as if they had been abandoned for a long time and were empty.
The only sounds left in the surroundings were the sound of cars and dozens of people with swords and swords following behind them.
"how do you feel?"
Chen Ji asked her, "Will it leave a psychological shadow? The psychological shadow means that Shu Min feels too scared and will have nightmares at night."
Chen Ji has mastered the skills of chatting with ancient ladies and clearly understands which words she has never heard of.
In turn, the little lady will do the same, and will take the initiative to explain to him some things about Yongkang City and Zhao State, such as the previous palace lanterns.
The two accommodated each other.
"No nightmares."
Xia Shumin said embarrassedly: "It's just... well, Shumin thought too simply before. The novel he wrote based on the scene he saw in his dream was too superficial and far from being able to describe the scene he saw with his own eyes at this moment."
Chen Ji said: "The world after the decline of civilization is indeed difficult to describe with pen and ink, and even more difficult to imagine."
“Civilization withered?”
Xia Shumin heard a novel word.
Chen Ji thought for a while and explained to her: "Even if hundreds of schools of thought, poems, songs and rhymes, the Four Books and Five Classics, moral etiquette have completely disappeared, and Fangzheng characters are no longer written by anyone, future generations will have a deep understanding of Fuxi and Nuwa, the Taoist ancestor of the Three Qing Dynasty, and the Han Dynasty."
They are no longer interested in Tang poetry, do not study it, do not understand it, instead they like things from other countries and use other words to write history.
This is what happens when civilization dies."
"ah!"
Xia Shumin exclaimed, her eyes widened, and she looked at the young master: "This is more terrifying than the Hulu taking over the Central Plains!"
She didn't dare to imagine it, but the scene in front of her already showed her a scene more terrifying than the decline of civilization.
All living things became extinct, and the world returned to chaos, falling into darkness and silence. All we could do was wait for the next great god Pangu to appear and create the world.
Looking at the place illuminated by the headlights in front of her, she thought about many things.
Chen Ji chuckled lightly.
The little lady is talented and knowledgeable, but after all, she comes from a world similar to ancient martial arts and has not been exposed to the information explosion. Many of her concepts have not yet been formed, and she has to continue to learn.
The off-road vehicle moved forward.
"Brother Chen, where are we going this time?"
Liu Sangu, who was in the back seat, took the initiative and said: "We have been searching the city these days, but we haven't found any particularly powerful monsters... Of course, with Brother Chen's cultivation, we will definitely be able to find things that we can't find!"
The thief saint gave Chen Ji a little flattery.
"Can you find the monster?"
Xia Shumin was a little nervous. That roar could be heard for dozens of miles, which showed how terrifying it was.
"You won't know until you get there, Shumin, sit tight!"
"Ah? Oh, okay!"
Chen Ji increased the accelerator, and when the car slid sideways, he used his magic power to straighten the car. The off-road vehicle drove wildly on the icy and snowy road as if drunk, making the little lady who was experiencing drag racing for the first time scream in surprise.
The car was speeding along, and half an hour later, a burst of swords, slashes, and shouts came from the front.
"Someone!"
"who is it?"
"I saw it. It's Gongsun Sword God. What monster is he fighting?"
Through the car lights, everyone could clearly see that on the wide street ahead, a dozen people from the world were gathered together, looking around nervously.
There were some corpses lying on the ground. They must have been attacked by monsters and died. They had just crossed over and didn't have the flashlight given by Mr. Chen. They couldn't see their surroundings clearly, so they could only lean on each other back to back.
"I wonder who the master is here?"
When the off-road vehicle's headlights shone, Gongsun Sword God, Wenxian Old Man and others all narrowed their eyes. They could tell that someone was coming, not a monster.
Gongsun Ming was particularly cautious.
With the help of this strange light, he finally saw his surroundings clearly, and immediately realized that he had indeed arrived at a very strange place that Mr. Chen had mentioned before.
This is not the underworld, but the level of danger and weirdness is no less than the eighteen levels of hell that the world imagines.
"Didi!"
Chen Ji pressed the horn twice, opened the car door and shouted to them: "It's me, seniors, what kind of monster did you encounter?"
At the same time as he spoke, Chen Ji got out of the car, walked around the front of the car to the passenger seat, protected the little lady in the car, unfastened her seat belt and got out of the car.
"It's Mr. Chen!"
Gongsun Ming and others were so surprised that they gave up their back-to-back formation and walked quickly instead.
"Master."
As soon as Xia Shumin said hello to the old man Xia, a thick branch suddenly appeared from the ground and hit her hard.
"Be careful! This tree demon appears again!"
Someone screamed.
However, Chen Ji was faster. He stepped hard on the ground, causing cracks in the street with a loud bang. The power was transmitted to the ground, causing the ground to vibrate.
The branches that shot out of the ground fell softly.
"Roar!!"
In the distance, an angry roar came from a certain building.
It's the huge monster that was startled by the light before!
No one has reacted yet.
In an instant, thick branches fell from the sky, covering the sky and blocking all space. The off-road vehicle lights went out almost at the same time. A mysterious force froze everyone, making them feel like they were stuck in a quagmire, and their movements became very strange.
slow.
"This is!"
