Sky Curtain: With a vermilion mirror, Jing travels through the modern world, shaking all dynasties.

Addressing everyone present, Jiang Chuan said in a deep voice, "The world today is still a world where the strong prey on the weak."

"How can our Dragon Kingdom protect its territory without swift and decisive measures?"

"Holding a sword in hand is to keep enemies at bay."

"Only by mastering this ultimate war power can we prevent those powerful and domineering nations from harboring any further covetousness towards the Dragon Kingdom!"

The applause rang out again, even more enthusiastic than before.

Looking at Jiang Chuan on the screen, Zhu Jingjing suddenly felt that the young man who had just been joking with her and buying her food was now exuding an indescribable aura.

Calm and sharp, like a sword that has been hidden for a long time and is about to be drawn.

A dozen minutes later, the room door opened.

Jiang Chuan walked in with a big smile, carrying a bag of fruit in his hand.

Now he has returned to his ordinary appearance as a young man.

"Why did you come back so quickly?"

Zhu Jingjing asked, somewhat surprised.

"I don't like those fancy victory celebrations and stuff, I can't be bothered to attend."

Jiang Chuan placed the fruit on the table, stretched, and said, "Now that I'm on vacation, let's pack up and leave in a bit!"

Zhu Jingjing watched Jiang Chuan pack his things and asked curiously, "Where are we going?"

Hearing this, Jiang Chuan laughed, "Of course I'll take you out for a stroll. I want to show you what kind of life ordinary people in our Dragon Kingdom are living now."

Beyond the sky, countless emperors pricked up their ears.

Want to go out for a stroll?

I want to see it too!

Hearing Jiang Chuan's words, Zhu Jingjing lowered her head somewhat embarrassed.

Jiang Chuan laughed when he saw her like that: "What's wrong, afraid to go out?"

Zhu Jingjing whispered, "I...I only trust you. Will it be dangerous if we go outside?"

Jiang Chuan chuckled and said, "We live in a society governed by law now. There are surveillance cameras everywhere in our country, so it's very safe."

Zhu Jingjing asked curiously, "Surveillance? What's that?"

Jiang Chuan thought for a moment and explained in a way she could understand: "It's like a third eye, all-pervasive, the kind of thing that no one can escape from when they steal or do evil."

At the entrance of the Fengtian Hall in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in agreement.

"Isn't this the same as our original intention in establishing those inspectors and the Embroidered Uniform Guard?"

He stroked his beard and said approvingly, "It seems that the security in later generations is quite good, and it has even followed the style of our Great Ming Dynasty."

Jiang Chuan led Zhu Jingjing downstairs.

There weren't many people at the base right now; most had gone to attend the celebration of the successful missile launch.

Jiang Chuan owns an SUV parked in the underground garage, which is specifically for entering and exiting the base.

The two arrived at the underground parking lot.

Zhu Jingjing stared blankly at everything before her.

Rows of large "iron boxes" of various colors were neatly arranged here—red, black, white, silver, and all sorts of colors—making her dizzy with envy.

"What are these metal boxes?"

Zhu Jingjing carefully reached out and touched a car next to her.

Jiang Chuan walked to a black SUV, opened the door, and said, "Have a seat. This is a car from our future!"

Zhu Jingjing carefully got into the passenger seat.

There was a faint smell of leather in the car, and the seats were soft and much more comfortable than she had imagined.

Jiang Chuan took a blanket from the back seat and handed it to her, "When we leave the base checkpoint later, use this to cover yourself so the patrolling people won't see you."

This is also thanks to Jiang Chuan having the highest level of authority here.

He only needs to show his pass and undergo iris recognition to enter and exit the base; he doesn't need to get out of the car for verification.

Zhu Jingjing took the blanket and nodded.

Jiang Chuan turned the key, and the roar of the engine instantly filled the air.

Zhu Jingjing was startled and instinctively gripped the handrail beside her.

"Relax, it's safe."

As Jiang Chuan spoke, he shifted gears, released the handbrake, and stepped on the accelerator.

The car smoothly reversed out of the parking space and headed towards the exit.

The Qin Dynasty, Xianyang Palace.

Ying Zheng's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

"This is... a car?"

He stared in disbelief at the image on the screen. "No people, no livestock, how could it possibly move?"

Li Simengyi was also completely bewildered.

Ying Zheng turned to look at Gongshu Ban and Mozi, who had just been summoned behind him, and said, "You two, make a replica for me. You must make a replica!"

Gongshu Ban's forehead immediately broke out in a sweat: "Your Majesty, I can't even tell how it's moving."

Mozi was also drenched in sweat: "Your Majesty, the things involved in this matter are probably far beyond what we have learned."

What?

Ying Zheng was startled. Even his most skilled mechanics expert in the world said he couldn't replicate it.

However, he still glared and shouted, "I don't care! If you can't replicate it, you'll stay in Xianyang Palace and not go back!"

The two masters exchanged a glance, both on the verge of tears.

The Great Han Dynasty, Weiyang Palace.

Liu Che stroked his beard, watching intently.

Huo Qubing was so excited that he jumped up from his seat. "Your Majesty, look at that speed! It's even faster than our best warhorses!"

Wei Qing was also visibly shocked, saying, "Indeed, at this speed, traveling a thousand miles a day is probably not a problem."

Huo Qubing rubbed his hands together, his face flushed, and said, "Your Majesty, if we had these iron-box chariots, not to mention a thousand, even a hundred, I dare say we could flatten the northern desert and make Yizhixie kowtow to you!"

Liu Che was greatly excited and said loudly, "Excellent! Immediately order the craftsmen to come and see for themselves. Even if they only learn a little bit about this, it will be a tremendous gain!"

Xuchang during the Three Kingdoms period.

Cao Cao was stunned.

"This thing is extremely powerful..."

He pondered for a moment and said, "I've heard that Zhuge Liang could create wooden oxen and flowing horses, a truly miraculous skill! Could this be the wooden ox of later generations? No, an iron ox?"

Xinye.

Liu Bei was also deeply shocked.

Zhang Fei scratched his head: "Military strategist, how does this thing compare to your wooden ox and flowing horse?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head repeatedly and sighed, "Yide, this thing is probably far beyond what the wooden ox and flowing horse can compare to. It can travel a thousand miles a day; it's truly miraculous."

Liu Bei sighed, "If our army had this, our provisions and supplies would move with the army, and we wouldn't have to worry about anything!"

The Great Tang Dynasty, Taiji Palace.

Li Shimin was also pondering it.

"Such a good thing."

He stroked his beard. "If I could have a few of these carriages to travel all over the country, wouldn't that be much more comfortable than the imperial palanquin?"

Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "Your Majesty, look how fast that thing runs, and it's even more stable than a steed. You should order the craftsmen to make a few replicas."

Li Shimin nodded, his eyes filled with longing.

The Great Song Dynasty, Chuigong Hall.

Zhao Kuangyin was also stunned. "This thing is definitely more powerful than the chariots of the Song Dynasty now! And it's made of iron, without any people pulling it or animals dragging it. Is this some kind of magic?"

The generals nearby looked at each other, none of them able to explain what was going on.

At the entrance of the Fengtian Hall in the Ming Dynasty.

Empress Ma grabbed Zhu Yuanzhang's sleeve: "Chongba, how can this thing run so fast? What if it can't stop? Wouldn't Jing'er be in danger?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at her and said, "Look at this, it's just a woman's perspective. How could those capable people of later generations not have thought of the problems we're considering?"

After saying that, Old Zhu turned his face away and continued to look at the image on the sky.

His expression suggested more curiosity than concern for his daughter.

The modern world.

The car drove smoothly to the gate of the base.

Jiang Chuan lowered the car window and waved to the sentry on duty at the gate.

Upon seeing Jiang Chuan, the sentry immediately saluted, and then, one iron railing after another rose up.

After the car turned onto the highway, Jiang Chuan stepped on the gas, and the speed immediately increased.

Zhu Jingjing was wrapped in a blanket.

She only revealed her long-lashed eyes, gazing intently at the novel scenery outside the window.

A speed of 70 or 80 miles per hour is certainly nothing to people nowadays.

But for her, it was as fast as flying forward on flat ground.

More than an hour later.

Jiang Chuan drove Zhu Jingjing into a very bustling city.
