"Are you from outside? Or are you from here?"

The next moment, Zhang Wei spoke slowly.

Hearing this, Qin Shang subconsciously wanted to say that he was from another place.

After all, the reason why Zhang Wei asked this question was probably to test whether they knew about the monastery.

But just as he was about to say this, a strong impulse suddenly surged in Qin Shang's heart. His sixth sense told him that the purpose of Zhang Wei's asking this question was most likely not what he imagined.

And his identity in the copy is Wu Shiqi's lover.

In other words, in the eyes of these NPCs, their faces may have been automatically changed by AI to look different.

Perhaps it is the appearance of a person who actually lived near the monastery in Xiang'an District in the 90s.

So, is it possible that people like Zhang Wei who lived under this background often had some intersections when living in the same area?

Even if Wu Shiqi and her lover have reached some kind of agreement, it seems that they cannot appear in the same frame, nor can they appear in the same frame in the monastery copy, but the two of them must buy groceries, wash clothes and cook in their lives.

The living circle in Xiang'an District is this small.

When Wu Shiqi's lover was buying groceries, he might have met the monastery security guard Master Zhang Wei.

With this thought in mind, Qin Shang suppressed the strong impulse in his heart.

No lies.

“I’m a local!”

"But I seldom go out, so I don't know much about the gossip and rumors around me. What's wrong? Brother Zhang Wei..."

Hearing this, Zhang Wei smiled and shook his head, his tone suddenly becoming pointed;

"It's okay. I just said I remembered it correctly. I seem to have seen a guy licking cockroaches' feet in the market before..."

Hearing this, Qin Shang's mouth twitched.

This damn Shenlu id.

Maybe in the eyes of NPCs, the name he called might be Zhang San or Li Si.

But after being filtered through Shenlu, it becomes the player's own Shenlu ID when heard by the player.

Of course, even if someone else called his name.

When it falls into the ears of these NPCs, it will automatically be transformed into the identity and name of the person in this copy.

However, this sentence completely confirmed his inner guess.

Sure enough, Zhang Wei was testing himself.

If he had played a trick just now, perhaps Zhang Wei would not have this attitude towards the two people now.

"It was around the 70s, during your parents' generation, something happened. Didn't your family tell you about it when you were a child?"

"I came here as an orphan."

Qin Shang was sure that what he was about to say was probably related to the strange birth of the long neck. He didn't give Zhang Wei a chance to talk nonsense, interrupted him immediately, and then grinned and showed his white teeth;

"I haven't seen my parents since I was a child."

"No wonder!"

Hearing this, Zhang Wei nodded in relief.

"You know that Jiangcheng was a colony in the early years, right?"

After hearing these words, Qin Shang was stunned.

I thought to myself, Wei Ge, aren’t you taking this a bit too far?

It is true that Jiangcheng was a colony about a hundred years ago.

But in the 70s, reform and opening up were everywhere, and the working people were the most glorious.

What kind of colony is Jiangcheng?

Why don’t you talk about the Qing Dynasty?

Qin Shang looked at Zhang Wei with a strange expression.

Seeing his expression, the NPC immediately realized that Qin Shang had misunderstood him, shook his head and changed his words.

"You misunderstood. This incident happened in the 70s. I just wanted to ask you if you knew that Jiangcheng was a colony during the war."

Hearing this, Qin Shang nodded.

“Of course I know that.”

"How can the Chinese not know this?"

Zhang Wei paused, as if he was sorting out the order of his words. He hesitated for about ten seconds before he slowly spoke;

"A long, long time ago, this monastery was first built by Westerners from Eagle Country when Jiangcheng was a colony. It is likely that their purpose was to use this place as a place for their fellow countrymen living in the colony to pray and worship."

"Afterwards, we went through several wars. Since you know it clearly... I won't go into details."

"Anyway, this monastery was preserved afterwards. It was just that during the civil war, most of the religious believers such as missionaries were not overbearing invaders, but innocent people brought here during the colonization. Our Chinese officials did not forcefully expel them. The authorities negotiated with them at the time and required them to leave China within a certain time limit."

"Plus, during the war, no matter which country invaded Jiangcheng, they would give some respect to the monastery. After all, the believers praying here must be innocent people."

"So during the war, the foreigners in the monastery were actually people who yearned for peace. They believed in God, equality of all beings, and respect for life. They even took in a group of our war orphans."

"Afterwards, many children who were displaced or lost their parents due to the war were naturally taken in by the monastery. Even many refugees of that era took shelter here. This is why the unified Chinese government did not have much ill will towards the foreigners in the monastery after the war."

Hearing this, Qin Shang narrowed his eyes.

In fact, there is one thing that other people who are familiar with Qin Shang have never been very clear about.

He is racist.

He looked down on everyone except the yellow race...

Oh no, any race except the Chinese.

Of course, this is a personal character and does not carry any rhythm.

It was just that Qin Shang's limited education had told him that whether white, black, or the Sakurajima people who were also yellow people but no different from dogs, they had all set foot on this land and hurt their ancestors and compatriots.

The problem may be at some peaceful stage. In order to avoid war, the public opinion is deliberately downplaying some of the racial hatred that comes from deep in the bones.

However, during Qin Shang's nine years of compulsory education and his subsequent shallow technical secondary school experience, all the textbooks he learned told him a bloody history, which not only included that those who were left behind would be beaten, but also that national hatred must not be influenced or forgotten by any factors.

So Qin Shang is indeed racist...

He looks down on foreigners, foreigners in any sense of the word.

The most general way to identify foreigners is whether their native language is Chinese.

As long as not, in Qin Shang's concept, this person is a foreigner!

Of course, this doesn't mean that Qin Shang doesn't respect objective facts...

Indeed, during the colonial period, some foreigners were good and even helped the Chinese.

He calmed himself down and continued listening.

"Later, in order to unify China, there was another stage after the reform to eradicate the historical problems hidden among the masses. As you know, after several wars, fighting the Japanese, fighting the foreign devils, and internal strife, China was seriously injured and could not withstand further turmoil."

"We must quickly eliminate dissidents, otherwise those people hiding among the masses will be time bombs. You have to know that at that time there were traitors who were brainwashed by the devils, there were foreign traitors who couldn't bear to see our China unified, and there were also remnants of another faction... Ahem, anyway, one night in the 70s, our Long government found the den of dissident spies in Jiangcheng."

"So, we quickly took action to catch the spies."

"But those spies were smart and cunning. They even arranged for someone to help them in the Long government. They smelled the wind in advance and tried to hide. The place they chose was this Jiangcheng Monastery."

Hearing this, Qin Shang was stunned, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

Good guy...

[No. 1 Xiudaoyuan] Why are there so many historical issues in this copy?

It actually involves two... ahem, that period?

"That night, the spies and anti-China unification bandits, who had nowhere to retreat, had retreated to the vicinity of the monastery."

"They claimed that they were carrying a large number of old and disabled people, and also brought out a group of women and children to negotiate, trying to trick the abbot of the monastery into opening the door."

"You also know that since the Anti-Japanese War, those devils and foreign devils have been in Jiangcheng for generations. Some of them are double agents. On the surface, they are members of the people's commune, but secretly they are reactionaries."

"They have lived on Chinese soil for many years, and they do have families."

"When they were found to be reactionary, they naturally took a large number of their family members with them when they fled."

"That group of people came to the gate of the monastery in a mighty manner. In order to trick the monastery people into opening the door, they directly pushed out the old, weak, sick and disabled as an excuse. Hundreds of people begged the old abbess to open the door and give them a way out. These reactionaries were especially smart. Their demands were simple. They claimed that the old, weak, sick and disabled people and women and children were innocent, and begged the old abbess of the monastery, Ms. Juliana, a missionary from Eagle Country, to open the door."

Appeared……

A new important person.

Ms. Juliana!

[Single-player side quest progress; 20%]

Skyrocketing!

The moment this name came out, the electronic prompt sound of Shenlu rang in Qin Shang's ears.

"and then?"

The next moment, Qin Shangxu narrowed his eyes and listened quietly.

Zhang Wei cleared his throat.

"Ms. Juliana is a kind-hearted Eagle countrywoman. She longs for and loves peace very much. Otherwise, she would not have been so heartless to see so many Chinese children being displaced during the war, and risked offending other coalition forces and invaders by bringing her children to the monastery to raise them."

"So she opened the door? That night?"

Zhang Wei was stunned when these words came out.

"How do you know it's night?"

"Didn't you just say that? One night in the 70s..."

Qin Shang's eyes were clear, and he raised his chin like a stupid college student.

Hearing this, Zhang Wei's expression froze for a moment, then he slapped his temple and smiled awkwardly;

"Yes, yes, yes, it was at night..."

'Urine is the tears of the bladder', who had been silent all the time, realized that something was wrong at this time.

However, she secretly glanced in the direction of Qin Shang and saw the young man holding a lollipop.

【Don't talk】

A [whisper] appeared in my ear.

'Urine is the tears of the bladder' I immediately said 'oh' in my heart and suppressed all the thoughts in my mind.

In fact, Qin Shang deliberately brought this woman with him to see what kind of strategies and off-field assistance the Zheng family members behind the scenes could provide.

Since such precious simultaneous interpretation props have been given to 'Urine is the teardrop of the bladder'.

These women are still alive today.

All the other helpers and external aids called by the Zheng family were killed or injured.

At this moment, shouldn’t the Zheng family reveal their true colors?

Little did they know that "urine is the teardrops of the bladder" and what they had in their hands was just a sound transmission device...

“Old Dean Zhu Lina didn’t open the door at first!”

The door didn’t open at first, which means it will open in the end!

Qin Shang changed his mind and quickly captured the key information in the words.

Narrow your eyes.
