Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Chapter 354 Secret Base

"I never thought that I would have the honor of meeting the Emperor and the Empress today." Tang Jinglan still felt that it was a little unreal. She looked at Long Mohan and Ji Anni from head to toe again, suspecting that what she saw was an illusion.

Ji Anni's face was full of sunshine, and she said happily, "I never thought I would meet a time-traveling comrade."

The chance of this happening is even smaller than winning the sports lottery, which makes Ji Anni admire her own good luck.

Tang Jinglan was quite concerned about Ji Anni and Long Mohan, and invited them, "If the emperor and his wife don't mind, why don't you go to my room and sit down and talk in detail."

"Your Majesty, please don't keep calling me the imperial concubine. Our current identities are the country's top secret." Ji Anni winked at Tang Jinglan.

Tang Jinglan then realized her slip of the tongue and subconsciously covered her mouth. She looked around vigilantly and only felt relieved when she saw that there was no one around.

Long Mohan didn't want to stay here for long, and said anxiously: "Now that we have found out the truth, we won't bother you anymore. We shouldn't stay here for long."

"It doesn't matter if we hide in the inn or the Wumu Escort Agency, why can't we stay here for a while?" Ji Anni was full of curiosity and wanted to visit Tang Jinglan's room. Since the other party was from a hundred years later, and he dug out a lot of equipment from that time from the backyard, the room must be full of the atmosphere of science fiction. Go visit his room and experience the future life.

Long Mohan had no way to deal with Ji Anni and couldn't stop her, so in the end he had no choice but to go with her.

What disappointed Ji Anni was that the furnishings and tables and chairs in Tang Jinglan's room were not much different from the room she lived in. Not only did it not have a futuristic feel, but it also fully reflected the ancient flavor of the Tianyou Holy Dynasty. The most eye-catching thing in the room was the large bookshelf that took up the entire wall. Boxed ancient books were neatly placed on the bookshelf, just like the scripture library in a temple.

There was a lot of dust on the book box, and it didn't look like anyone would flip through it. Ji Anni felt a little strange and asked, "Brother Tang, do you read these books?"

Tang Jinglan said mysteriously, "These books are not for reading, but for decoration."

After saying that, he carefully closed the doors and windows and went to a small corner near the corner of the wall on the right side of the bookshelf.

In this corner, there was a square light-colored scar. He placed his palm over the scar and touched it gently. Suddenly, he heard a "boom" sound. Just like the entrance to a mysterious tunnel that often appears in martial arts TV dramas, the bookshelf on the entire wall actually rotated 30 degrees, creating a large crack that allowed outsiders to enter.

"Wow!" Ji Anni, who had a glimpse of the world inside the wall, couldn't help but exclaim.

It is no exaggeration to say that the outside and inside of the wall are two completely opposite worlds. Outside the wall is a standard retro room, but inside the wall looks like a secret base control room. There are not only sophisticated instruments, but also a surround large screen display, and a long-lost rotating chair is placed in the center. The only drawback is that the space is too small, only the size of an ordinary bathroom. After Ji Anni and Tang Jinglan barely squeezed in, Long Mohan had no room to stand. In the end, he only poked half of his head in to take a look.

The dignity of the royal family prevented Long Mohan from screaming out loud, but from his stunned expression, it could be seen that his degree of surprise was more than thirty times greater than Ji Annie's.

"That's amazing, did you make all of this yourself?" Ji Anni couldn't imagine how one person could make a control room. The numbers on the instrument that kept jumping and the occasional "beeping" electronic sound proved that this control room was definitely not a decoration, but a real modern equipment that could be used for monitoring.

Tang Jinglan blushed when Ji Anni praised her, and said shyly, "Not all of them were made by me. Some were dug out from the backyard. They were probably things that traveled with me. It's just that I traveled into my mother's belly, and those things traveled into the mud."

"That's already amazing!" Ji Anni was completely impressed by Tang Jinglan.

Tang Jinglan said modestly, "Miss, you are too kind. I am stupid and have spent three years but still cannot find a way to return to the original world."

"I believe you will succeed." Ji Anni patted Tang Jinglan's shoulder carelessly, and then her eyes fell on the swivel chair that looked very comfortable. She asked with envy, "Brother Tang, can I sit on this chair? I really want to experience the feeling of returning to modern society..."

Tang Jinglan replied generously: "Okay, as long as you like it, it's no problem to give it to you."

After saying that, he helped Ji Anni open the back of her chair in a gentlemanly manner.

Ji Anni, who took the commander's seat without any hesitation, suddenly felt that her value had skyrocketed several times and she had become an elite respected by everyone.

"Brother Tang, what is this for?" Ji Anni asked, pointing to the most eye-catching red button in front of her.

Tang Jinglan said: "This is the start button. Once you press it, the whole device will start to operate."

"It's probably equivalent to a power switch..." Ji Anni muttered. However, in this era without electricity, the operation of the equipment is mostly achieved through other energy sources such as solar energy, wind energy, and nuclear energy.

Tang Jinglan introduced: "I am currently trying to get in touch with the satellite, but to no avail. Alas... it is too difficult to get the satellite to pay attention to the dynasty outside of our history."

"Traveling satellite? What is that?" Ji Anni heard a very strange word.

Tang Jinglan said, "Ah, I almost forgot, you traveled through time in 2007. Half a century after you traveled through time, humans have made breakthrough progress in time travel, cracked the time code, and turned occasional time travel into planned behavior that can be controlled by artificial intelligence. In other words, scientists can plan and purposefully plan time travel activities and travel between the past and the future. However, due to the limitations of scientific and technological levels and human morality, it is currently impossible to implement the time travel of living beings, and only satellite travel can be implemented. That is, let the satellite run on the time and space orbit and send back the real picture of the ancient society and the future society to the research center for scientists to study and investigate. However, the orbits set by scientists for the time travel satellites are all set according to the order of historical dynasties. In other words, unknown dynasties that have not been recorded in history, such as the dynasty we are in now, will not be within the monitoring range of the time travel satellite. Therefore, our distress signals are difficult for time travel workers to detect."

"I see." Ji Anni nodded, not quite understanding. Columbus only discovered a new continent, but they discovered a new time and space. Will it be recorded in history?

Tang Jinglan added: "The time travel of life forms represented by humans may not only cause time and space chaos and change history, but also be extremely dangerous, so it has become a research project that is expressly prohibited by international law. My time travel was purely accidental, and I traveled through time because of a machine failure. This is probably the same as human cloning. Many technologies are not allowed to be used on humans at the beginning of their development."

Ji Anni could understand most of Tang Jinglan's words, but to the antique Long Mohan, it was like an alien language and was completely incomprehensible.

Ji Anni kindly explained to Long Mohan concisely, "In short, brother, we have finally found a way to get Zhao Ji back to you besides fighting."

"Really?" Long Mohan was instantly excited. After listening to the alien text for a long time, he finally heard a piece of news that encouraged him.

Although Long Mohan understood, Tang Jinglan was confused and asked, "Wait, what's going on? Why do you call him brother?"

So Ji Anni told Tang Jinglan again about the agreement between her and Long Mohan, and Tang Jinglan suddenly realized.

Ji Anni then asked, "Besides sending distress signals, what other functions does your machine have?"

Such a huge device should not be used only for calling for help.

Tang Jinglan pressed the start button and said while she skillfully tapped the keyboard, "We can also monitor, take photos, forecast the weather, and so on. The current situation is that although we can find and use the satellites that travel through time and space, the satellites cannot find us."

Having said that, Tang Jinglan couldn't help but sigh.

As his fingertips tapped, a bird's-eye view of the entire imperial city appeared on the big screen. The image was so clear that even the shadows of people walking on the street could be seen.

Suddenly, Ji Anni noticed a strange cloud of smoke appearing on the big screen.

"Look, what is that?" Ji Anni pointed at the strange smoke and raised her voice.

Long Mohan was the first to react and said nervously, "It's fire. They have already started to light it."

Ji Anni then remembered that the Anti-Imperialist Society had collected firewood and bought oil. Her mood suddenly became heavy, and her eyes were fixed on the strange white smoke on the screen. The smile on her face had long since disappeared.

I thought the rebels would burn down the palace, but now I only see a single fire. If it were at night, I would have thought they were having a bonfire party.

"Can you make the image a little bigger?" Ji Anni asked. As she spoke, she took the initiative to stand up and give up the commander's seat for Tang Jinglan to sit down.

Tang Jinglan replaced Ji Anni and answered confidently, "Of course, the image can be enlarged so that you can see how many buttons are on their clothes."

As the image zoomed in, the people moving around the bonfire became clearly visible, some adding wood to the flames, others pouring oil.

"Why are they making a fire here?" Ji Anni was becoming increasingly confused about the intentions of this group of rebels.
