Chapter 4 Cave Space
My heart moved. If there were other people in the villa at this time, I would be shocked to find that An Yifei suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Just like when he was playing games, An Yifei, who was in the cave, appeared in front of his eyes, clearly marking two secret rooms that he had not discovered at the beginning.
It is actually not accurate to say that it is a secret room, because there is no door, and it is just a labyrinth corridor that is difficult to find. In addition to the place where An Yifei got the jade box, there are two other places in the entire strange cave that he has never been to, similar to a warehouse.
It's strange that An Yifei knew very clearly that he could enter and exit this mysterious space. Whether it was mental power or himself, he walked towards the first secret room and was secretly excited: "It should be used as a storage space and you will get rich."
The first secret room surprised him, and it was full of books, calligraphy and paintings. You should know that because of the glory of his ancestors, An Yifei's father always thought that he was from a scholarly family. He taught him a lot of knowledge that was not in books since he was a child. After his wife died of difficult labor, An's father raised his son with great difficulty. He did not recover until the 1980s. Before others realized, he bought a good shop for his son, and finally died of illness due to overwork.
When his father passed away in his previous life, An Yifei was still in college. When recalling his love, he naturally passed the knowledge his father taught him and hid it in his heart. Now, this secret room is filled with various rare and lonely books that have disappeared. It seems that they are all thread-bound books from the Song Dynasty. The knowledge learned from his father finally comes into play. No matter what kind of font, An Yifei can easily recognize it.
In addition to a large number of Song Dynasty books, An Yifei also saw many rare calligraphy and paintings, even works by the famous artist Zhang Zeduan. It was a Song Dynasty style painting that had not been recorded in history. It depicted the humanistic scenery of Lin'an during the Northern Song Dynasty, and its value was definitely no less than "Along the River During the Qingming Festival". Perhaps because of some characteristics of the cave, the books and calligraphy and paintings in the secret room did not have the meaning of aging, and they completely maintained the state of collecting at that time.
In this room similar to a library, multiple stone bookcases of two people were built along the wall of the cave. Although there was no label, the various books were placed neatly. After An Yifei had a brief look at it, he clearly understood that the unknown master was stored in categories according to history, geography, etc. The calligraphy and paintings were rolled up separately and placed in an open cabinet.
An Yifei feels familiar with such an environment, which is very similar to the magical game he has played. You should know that Chinese literati have different habits about bookcases and other ethnic groups. This secret room does not feel like Chinese habits, but rather like the study of a certain Western magician.
Walking to a stone desk and opening the exquisite drawer, An Yifei found a lonely notebook lying inside, which was huge and extremely thick. After opening it for a while, he let out a long sigh: "It's true."
The first few pages of the notebook are all about a magician, a magician who accidentally traveled through time like An Yifei:
"Hello, descendants. I am a magician of the distant Murray civilization, an unlucky man who came to Earth accidentally. My name is Pilair.
That day I was working hard to complete the homework assigned by the teacher and make my first space ring. You should know that as a low-level magician with only water affinity, it is very difficult to complete the portrayal of the space magic pattern, but there is no way, because this is my upgrade exam.”
An Yifei smiled, "Unlucky guy, but why do you have to have space magic patterns? Let me continue to see it."
"Maybe you will be very surprised, why a water-based mage was asked to portray the magic pattern of space. You should know that in my original civilized world, the elements were extremely active, so those teachers would always give some strange test questions to make things difficult for the students, because there are too many magic geniuses.
I don’t know what I have portrayed. After a piece of white light, I arrived at the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period you know. Oh, the magic elements here make me despair. So, when time entered the Northern Song Dynasty, I found a suitable method. Yes, it was the strange technique you could see in the jade box. It was taught by a practitioner here. It improved my physical and mental level. Of course, in return, I taught him some simple alchemy. You must know, my friend, in this world, I am the only magician, and the potion I made was the emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty willing to exchange for half the warehouse treasure.
But wealth and status are not my purpose. My wish is to go home and return to the planet full of elements, where there is my lover I long forever. So, without the teacher forcing me, I tried hard to recall the magic pattern of space and finally portrayed it in this strange space. When time entered the Southern Song Dynasty, I finally completed the creation of the teleportation array. No matter whether I can go back or not, I have to try it, right?"
An Yifei frowned, "Not right? "Daozang" is a book from the late Northern Song Dynasty. Maybe it's different. Since this senior said that the martial arts were obtained from others in the early Northern Song Dynasty, it would not be wrong. Later generations may be suspected of placing the names of books." After talking to himself, he continued to read:
"The teleportation array is not in the cave space, so I leave it for those who are destined to be destined to be. The so-called destined means that the mental power fluctuates similar to mine. Once it is found, it will trigger a series of events. But I think it should be mainly about getting better. Alas, I don't know if I will go home successfully or disappear in the turbulence of time and space. Later generations, I actually set up a mental power test in this diary. If you can see it, then press the gray dot on the lower right foot of the table. It is a button, which is the gift I left to you."
After lowering his body and searching for a while, An Yifei really saw a gray button. After pressing it, a hole wall opened silently like a sliding door, revealing a small room inside.
"Wow, is this an alchemy room or a magic room?" There is an alchemy platform made of marble in the small room, with a lot of bottles and jars on it. On the side of the alchemy platform is a small bookcase with several books on it.
Unlike the printed books outside, all of them are handwritten. Not only are there methods of practicing water magic, but there are also ancient Chinese martial arts used by the magician Pilair to disguise his identity.
In each manuscript, there are detailed annotations of the magician who has been regarded as a teacher by An Yifei. An Yifei is particularly concerned about ancient martial arts. After reading it for a while, he sighed, "The Qing Dynasty has been ruined for three hundred years. There is no remnant of such a mighty ancient martial arts now. If it weren't for the teacher's record, who would have known that ancient martial arts is actually mainly about waist training, and who has heard of Dazhuiquan and Red Line Fist?"
The Dazhui Fist, which is full of pictures and texts, gives An Yifei a feeling of being a bit like the Baji Fist of later generations, but it is even more sharp. With the skills on Jade Butterfly, it will be very scary if you practice it. The Red Line Fist is drawn with the appearance of a woman, which seems to be suitable for women to practice.
There is time to get to the future. After An Yifei put these on the stone table outside, he left for the next secret room. He could use mental power to store these books, so there was no big problem to stack them at will. Pilair said in his diary that this space is very strange and any items will be kept fresh in it, which means that it is sterile.
The second secret room also surprised An Yifei. He didn't expect that his cheap teacher would have so much treasure. The secret room, which was about 100 square meters, was almost filled with gold and silver antiques, as well as a lot of porcelain, weapons, etc. from the Song Dynasty. Any piece of it would make him a rich man.
But An Yifei did not want to take advantage of the antiques left by his teacher. Selling one less piece of these things is a witness to Chinese history. He did not want to be a prodigal person and sell his country's culture at a low price.
"Hu", appeared under the grape trellis in the villa yard again. An Yifei let out a long sigh. The shock he had given him today was too great. Even though he was very old, it still made him feel excited and it was difficult for him to do so.
"This year is 1975. If you want to take over Jiayi TV station in 1978, you have to find a way to make money. Moreover, the TV station was awarded an educational TV brand. If you want to change the broadcast category of the TV station after taking over, you have to establish a good relationship with the Hong Kong and British governments. What should you do?", like a paralyzed patient, huddled in a bamboo recliner, An Yifei frowned and thought about the plan.
"People are nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation. Hong Kong... Yes, there is water shortage here. If we can find a way to solve the water shortage in Hong Kong, we will not only get the name, but also benefit." An Yifei is very familiar with Hong Kong and knows that even if the Dongjiang water in the mainland was introduced, there is still a serious water shortage here, which has become a huge burden for the Hong Kong and British government.
After glanced at the hand-copied magic book that he ignored in the cave space, An Yifei sat upright, "Water-based magician? Water-based magic pattern... Yes, it should be a water-gathering array. If you learn it, you will make a fortune."
The first novel "The Rain and the Clouds" is still being serialized, so An Yifei has a lot of free time. In addition to learning the martial arts left by his teacher and ancient martial arts, he is also learning magical meditation and other basics.
After a period of practice, An Yifei's height has grown to 181 cm, which is considered a big man in Hong Kong. However, when he returns to his 18-year-old physique, he still has a tendency to increase. Although it is already very slow, it may exceed 185 cm when he is finalized.
The clothes brought from the previous life must not be used anymore. In that life, there were many factors such as shortness, insufficient nutrition, depression caused by the death of his father, etc. Although he cannot meet his father in person, he can mail some money back. The reason for using the name An Yifei was because he once heard his father say that he had a cousin named this name, but he disappeared after going out to connect at the age of 15. Therefore, it is reasonable to send money with this name.
Although An Yifei bought clothes once in Hong Kong for more than three months, he couldn't keep up with the growth rate of height and became shorter again, forcing him to go out to buy new ones.
In this era, bell-bottom pants and plaid shirts are gradually becoming popular. Although the guys with big backs and toad glasses feel very fashionable, An Yifei from the 21st century feels that these people are very rustic. The shops are full of this type of clothing, which makes him have to go to a tailor shop to customize the styles he gets used to.
