Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan

July 1958

Sijiucheng

At the train station, a green train from the southwest slowly stopped at the platform.

"Comrade, comrade, wake up, the train has arrived, it's time to get off."

Zhou Jin rubbed his eyes with both hands, then looked up and said "Thank you, Auntie" to the attendant, then carried his luggage and walked off the train with everyone else.

Half an hour later, Zhou Jin stood in front of the courtyard gate of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang with his luggage, just quietly looking at this place that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Five years ago, the original owner's parents lived in this courtyard. His father Zhou Weiguo worked in the security department of the Third Steel Rolling Mill as an officer, and his mother Li Xiuli worked in a textile factory. The Zhou family was a rare dual-income family in the courtyard.

The family had a high income and only one child, so the burden was small. Not long after Zhou Weiguo moved into the courtyard, he bought three rooms in the backyard from the street office.

Such a perfect start is definitely not in line with the identity of the male protagonist.

In March 1953, while on a mission, Zhou Weiguo chased two enemy spies alone and fought desperately, eventually killing the two spies. However, he was stabbed in the vitals by a dagger during the fight. After being sent to the hospital, he ultimately could not be rescued and died heroically.

Mother Li Xiuli was in good health, but after hearing the news of her husband's sacrifice, she suddenly lost all her energy and spirit. It can be said that there is no greater sorrow than a dead heart.

After Zhou Jin got the news, he hurriedly asked for leave to go home to take care of his mother. Perhaps when Li Xiuli learned of Zhou Weiguo's sacrifice, she lost the desire to live and passed away within less than three months.

Zhou Jin never expected that in just three months, he would become an orphan. The sudden disaster was too much for Zhou Jin, who was only fifteen years old, to bear.

But Zhou Jin hoped that his mother could complete the last journey of her life, so he held on to his last breath and went to the street office to find Director Wang, who had a good relationship with his mother, for help. Finally, he completed the processing of his mother's funeral.

Zhou Jin returned home and looked at his parents' portraits. He thought that three months ago he was a happy family of three, but now he was separated from his family. The energy that had been supporting him disappeared, so he took out the rat poison he had prepared and followed his parents.

At this moment, Zhou Jin in the 21st century was sent to the courtyard by an SUV that speeded and ran a red light on the way to the company, and the SUV took over Zhou Jin's body.

After Zhou Jin woke up from his coma, he saw the unfamiliar environment with confusion in his eyes. Suddenly, all the memories of the original owner flooded into his mind. It took him a long time to integrate the memories of the two lives.

Zhou Jin in the 21st century was an orphan who grew up in an orphanage. He had no idea who his parents were. He thought that by traveling through time, he would be able to live a happy life with both parents and a happy family.

The result is still a mess, and it's even worse than my original life.

Feeling my body, I really don't know how to describe it. My internal organs were damaged due to swallowing pills to commit suicide. Even though Zhou Jin traveled through time and space to save my life, I am still like a candle in the wind, weak and vulnerable. I could die if I'm not careful.

Since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it. Since I've traveled through time and can't find a way to return to the future, I can only think of a way to survive in this strange era.

I could only get up and find some food to keep myself alive, and then go to the hospital. As for how to survive in this courtyard next, I could only take it one step at a time for the time being.

After filling his stomach, Zhou Jin felt much better and had more energy. He shouldn't have died for no reason.

Now that it was dark, Zhou Jin planned to go to the hospital tomorrow. No matter what, his life was his own, and nothing could go wrong.

Zhou Jin lay on the kang and closed his eyes. The information about this courtyard flashed through his mind like slides.

An old man named Yi Zhonghai lives in the east wing of the central courtyard. He is now a seventh-level fitter. He is a hypocritical and sanctimonious person who is extremely domineering, narrow-minded, and has a strong desire for control. He will do anything to provide for himself in his old age and is always worried that others will escape his control.

The second uncle, Liu Haizhong, lived in the backyard. He was a sixth-level blacksmith. He was ignorant, narrow-minded, and always thinking about becoming an official. He beat his sons at every turn, but was extremely partial to his eldest son, Liu Guangqi.

The third uncle Yan Bugui lives in the front yard and works as a teacher at Hongxing Primary School. However, he is extremely stingy and even schemes against his own son. He also summed it up by saying that if you have enough food and clothing, you will not be poor if you scheme. Although he is forced by life, his character is definitely questionable.

The deaf old lady, a five-guarantee household, lives in the backyard. She is known as the ancestor of the courtyard. No one dares to mess with her in the courtyard. She is old and cunning, not easy to deal with. She is good at being greedy and playing rogue. It is said that she is also a relative of a martyr and gave straw sandals to the Red Army. I don't know if it is true or not.

Jia Zhang is the king of the rogue world and a famous courtyard undead summoner. He is annoying to everyone and even dogs dislike him.

Jia Dongxu is the only mama's boy in the courtyard. He relies on his rogue mother and an old man as his master. He is lazy, cunning, greedy and lustful.

Qin Huairu is the founder of White Lotus and an Oscar winner.

The White-Eyed Wolf King, a genius thief, is known as the Siheyuan Thief Saint

Shazhu is the king of licking dogs. He licks dogs until he has nothing left. This sentence suits him best.

Poor He Yushui, his father He Daqing ran away with the widow, and his brother Sha Zhu also became obsessed with the widow and didn't care about his own life or death.

Xu Damao lives in the backyard, a real courtyard. He is a real villain. A gentleman takes revenge even ten years too late, but a villain takes revenge from morning to night. He is lustful and greedy for money, and he flatters the boss.

There are also Liu Guangqi, Liu Guangtian, Liu Guangfu, Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiefang, and Yan Jiekuang.

When these characters' names appeared in Zhou Jin's mind, he realized that the place where he lived now was the legendary Qinman Siheyuan.

No wonder the original person would rather go to the street office to ask Director Wang for help in handling his mother's funeral than to bother these neighbors. It turned out that he already knew what kind of people were in the courtyard.

It seems that it is quite difficult to survive in this courtyard. Zhou Jin is now alone and half-dead, and he will definitely be eaten by this group of people without leaving even a trace.

So Zhou Jin must now think about how to break the situation. It will be too late if he waits until that group of people come to him.

At this moment, Zhou Jin heard a "ding" sound in his mind, and he knew that the system that belonged to him, which was the standard configuration for time travelers, had arrived, so he immediately called out with his mind, "Master System, is that you?"

There was no response. Zhou Jin didn't want to give up this life-saving rope, so he immediately started calling the system in various ways: "System dad, system sister, system brother, dad."

But no matter how Zhou Jin called the system, he almost knelt down and called him grandpa, but he didn't get any response. Just when Zhou Jin was about to give up.

A light curtain appeared in front of him, and on a screen similar to an LED screen, it was written, "This system encountered an accident during the process of crossing time and space, and the energy is insufficient. Now we can only provide the host with a novice gift package. Please click to receive it."

This made Zhou Jin overjoyed. He originally thought that the life-saving rope was broken, but it turned out that he just shook himself. Why did Zhou Jin click to receive it?

Then I saw the light appear on the screen.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully receiving it. The host has obtained:"

"Super Human Serum (Oral Type)"

"Bajiquan Grandmaster Inherited Light Ball"

"A 100 cubic meter portable space (no living creatures can be placed in it for now, but it can be upgraded. The host can instantly store items within a -meter range)"

"The skill reward levels for system sign-in are divided into elementary, intermediate, advanced, master and grandmaster levels."

Hahaha, these are all good things. Zhou Jin had read many fan novels before traveling through time, so he naturally knew how to use these things.

At the same time, I have to sigh that this system is really considerate. This novice gift pack contains all the things I urgently need now.

Zhou Jin received the super human serum first. In the blink of an eye, a small blue bottle appeared in Zhou Jin's hand. The bottle was not big, probably only about ten milliliters.

Zhou Jin did not hesitate. He opened the bottle cap and drank it. He immediately felt the blood boiling all over his body. The serum was quickly washing his body. At this time, Zhou Jin felt that he had endless energy and did not feel any discomfort. There was no smelly black mud.

Then he used the Bajiquan inheritance light ball, and then the light ball shattered and a large amount of Bajiquan information was integrated into Zhou Jin's body. In an instant, he felt as if he had practiced Bajiquan for forty or fifty years, and it was perfectly integrated with himself.

Thanks to the super serum that transformed his body, otherwise Zhou Jin's original body would have been torn apart before he could finish absorbing the Bajiquan.

Zhou Jin felt the changes that the system brought to him, and a clear plan for his future emerged in his mind.

He was about to take the high school entrance exam, but his original academic performance was just average, and he could barely get into a technical secondary school. Even with the help of Zhou Jin from the 21st century, it would not be possible because Zhou Jin did not know Russian, so his path to study was blocked.

Zhou Jin is fifteen years old now. There are two jobs in his family that he can inherit, but he has to wait a year before he can take over. However, Zhou Jin does not want to work in a factory.

At this time, Zhou Jin thought about joining the army. Being a soldier has always been Zhou Jin's dream. Unfortunately, Zhou Jin missed the opportunity because he fell ill.

I had originally planned to take good care of myself and fight again next year, but ended up traveling through time here.

It just so happened that now that he had undergone a systematic transformation and possessed a body that surpassed that of a special forces soldier, and also had master-level Bajiquan, joining the army was Zhou Jin's best choice now.

Zhou Jin did what he thought. He left the courtyard early the next morning and found Uncle Pan and Aunt Liu, who had a good relationship with his parents, and entrusted them to sell the two jobs left by his parents.

Zhou Jin didn't know whether they bought the two positions themselves or sold them to others. In any case, three days later, Zhou Jin received a total of one thousand yuan.

Then Zhou Jin searched through the drawers and cabinets at home, and with the help of his memory, he found all the valuable things in the house.

The total amount of cash plus the money for buying the workstation was two thousand seven hundred and eighty yuan. Zhou Jin then put the cash, house deeds, martyr's family certificate and all valuables into the space.

After taking care of things at home, Zhou Jin should now think about how to join the army.

Zhou Jin didn't know much about this era. Even if he had integrated the memories of two lives, it was still of little use. After all, the original owner, under the protection of his parents, did nothing but study and play, and knew nothing about other things.

So Zhou Jin went to the steel mill to ask Uncle Pan for help, and after great effort he finally convinced Uncle Pan.

A week later, Zhou Jin received the news that he could join the army, which made him very excited.

He quickly finished all the household affairs, went to the street office to report to Director Wang, and then the day before leaving, he took some gifts to visit Aunt Liu and Uncle Pan.

When the day of enlistment came, Zhou Jin got up early, packed his luggage, locked the three rooms, then avoided everyone in the courtyard, quietly left the courtyard, and joined the army.

Not long after fifteen-year-old Zhou Jin joined the army, he followed the troops to the southwestern mountains of Longguo to suppress bandits. Because his body had undergone systematic strengthening, coupled with the master-level Bajiquan.

Zhou Jin could be said to be extremely brave and a pride of the army. Within five years, he had won two third-class individual merits, one second-class individual merit and two second-class group merits. At the age of 20, he had become a deputy company commander.

Zhou Jin originally wanted to develop in the army. After all, it would be a pity if he left the army with his abilities.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. During a mission, Zhou Jin was careless for a moment and was shot in the lung by a bandit. He fell into a coma on the spot.

After a day and night of surgery, his life was finally saved. However, because the bullet pierced his lungs, causing irreparable damage, Zhou Jin was in a coma for seven days after the operation before waking up.

Although Zhou Jin's body gradually recovered later, he could clearly feel that any even slightly strenuous exercise would cause him to feel severe pain in his lungs.

Therefore, given Zhou Jin's current physical condition, he can no longer adapt to the high-intensity anti-bandit war in the southwest region. Finally, after discussion by the military leaders, it was decided that Zhou Jin should retire and return to Sijiu City.
