Chapter 1 Troubled Times
"Brother Changsheng, wake up..."

……

While Lu Changsheng was in a daze, he heard a clear call coming from his ear.

A feeling of weightlessness, as if in a dream, always lingered in his heart.

at this time.

A stream of extremely bitter liquid flowed directly into his mouth, causing him to shiver instantly.

After a while.

Lu Changsheng struggled to open his eyes.

"This is where?"

What came into view was a completely unfamiliar environment.

This is a thatched hut only a few meters in radius, and the roof is covered with unknown wild grass.

Rays of sunlight shine into the house through the gaps in the eaves.

The whole room was quite dilapidated, with only an old wooden bed in the west corner.

There was also a faint, strange musty smell in the air, which was a bit pungent.

A handsome young man was standing by the bed, a look of concern on his face.

The boy looked to be about thirteen years old, wearing a coarse linen shirt, thin and with a pale face.

But a pair of bright big eyes look sharp and lively.

The call just now came from this person.

"Brother Changsheng, you scared me to death. I thought you weren't going to make it. Those bastards deserved to die. They were so cruel..."

Seeing that Lu Changsheng hadn't moved for a long time, Fang Tao cursed with gritted teeth.

After a while.

Seeing that Lu Changsheng was still confused, he couldn't help but frown.

"I'm Taozi, don't you remember me? Did you hurt your brain..."

"It was me who carried you back from the street the day before yesterday, and a month ago you promised to take me to Yuanyang Tower to see it..."

Fang Tao began to talk incessantly, trying to "wake up" Lu Changsheng.

Growing up in Changping County, he had also heard of some strange stories about lost souls.

The situation was very similar to that of his own elder brother Lu, so he thought of talking about some things in the past in order to wake him up.

When Lu Changsheng heard the young man talking about the brain, he seemed to react, and a piercing pain came from the back of his head.

"Hey...it hurts."

It broke our hearts.

He couldn't help but cry out and reflexively touched the back of his head, which was a little wet.

When I took it in front of me, I saw a hint of bright red on my fingers.

He was stabbed!

At this moment, a huge amount of memories suddenly flooded into the depths of my mind.

"what……"

With a scream, Lu Changsheng fainted from the pain.

.........

.........

When Lu Changsheng woke up again, it was already evening.

The setting sun shone into the room through the door, revealing a hint of crimson, which looked a little strange.

Lu Changsheng leaned quietly against the mud wall, lost in thought.

Only at this moment did he realize that he had traveled through time.

An ordinary young man in his twenties from Blue Star came to this strange world after getting drunk.

The body he occupied was also called Lu Changsheng, and he just turned twenty years old this year.

After being influenced by the Internet explosion in his previous life, he recognized the reality in an instant.

And began to carefully recall the memories in my mind.

After a moment, Lu Changsheng began to understand his situation.

This place is located in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Qingning Prefecture, Changping County.

Hundreds of years have passed since Qin Muyun swept across the world with absolute force six hundred years ago and founded the dynasty.

However, due to Qin Muyun's old age and frailty, he has not attended court in the past three years.

Some dark forces throughout the Great Zhou also began to stir.

Because Changping County is located on the dynasty's frontier and close to the sphere of influence of the southern barbarians, the changes are more obvious.

The territory is full of rampant bandits and evil cults, making it extremely dangerous.

"Martial arts? Emperor of Zhou Dynasty?"

Lu Changsheng's eyes moved slightly, and the tip of the iceberg in his memory broke his cognition.

It's really scary that there are warriors who can live for hundreds of years.

"Brother Changsheng, you should have a good rest first. We will investigate Uncle Lu's matter later."

At this moment, a voice interrupted Lu Changsheng's thoughts.

The person who spoke was Fang Tao. Seeing that Lu Changsheng had improved, he prepared to leave.

Lu Li came back to his senses and smiled: "Thank you for these days."

He and Fang Tao's siblings live next door to each other. The two families are related by ancestry and have always had a good relationship.

This time, after his head was cut open, he fell into a stinky ditch and had to be carried back by two people.

As for the Uncle Lu mentioned by the other party, he is my father.

The other party was an ordinary porter who usually took on hard labor for the escort agency. Unexpectedly, he left and never returned half a month ago.

Even the compensation from the escort agency has been paid, so it must be a dangerous situation.

In this world, a life is only worth ten taels of silver.

However, before he could even warm up the ten taels of blood-soothing silver, he was hit by a club when he went out one day, which led to his traveling through time.

It seems that someone has already set his eyes on the money in his hands.

Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng felt very cold in his heart.

At this moment, he was not only injured, but also very weak, so he could only choose to lie in wait.

"Brother Changsheng, what are you talking about? I'm still waiting for you to take me out to explore the world after you recover from your injury."

Fang Tao smiled slyly, then turned and walked back.

Watching the other person go away, Lu Changsheng didn't say anything, but leaned against the wall to recover his strength. The air was very quiet, and his breathing was clearly audible.

When night fell, he felt that the trance was much relieved.

Lu Changsheng stood up and walked out slowly.

Soon he came outside.

It is surrounded by a small courtyard formed by dead trees, which is only about twenty meters in radius.

Four thatched houses are located in the south, which contain two bedrooms, a kitchen and a utility room.

He walked straight towards the utility room.

Try to search for some useful items inside.

He knew from his memory that there were many small things in it that his cheap dad had collected over the years.

Although the original body has always been somewhat disdainful of these "garbage".

As a non-staff member of the escort agency, the other party has been traveling all over the country for a long time and may have some unexpected gains.

After a while, Lu Changsheng came to the outside of the utility room.

The wooden door in front was half-open and a little damaged, obviously having been violently kicked open.

His expression turned cold.

It goes without saying that the entire yard was looted by that group of thugs.

"Squeak..."

Lu Changsheng pushed open the wooden door and walked in.

The room was not big and was in a mess.

A few torn animal skins and some useless books were scattered on the ground.

There are also some bottles and jars, but I don’t know what they are used for.

It looks worthless at first glance.

He slowly walked to the northwest corner, squatted down, and picked up a book on the ground.

"Travels to Shuofang"

Four big characters on the cover caught my eye. Fortunately, I had learned to read before, otherwise I would be completely in the dark.

Books are the first channel to understand the world, so they are naturally his first choice.

He opened the book and read it carefully.

The book is only more than twenty pages long, and it tells the story of a warrior named Zhao Shuo who traveled around the world hundreds of years ago.

It records the customs and habits of many places in the Great Zhou, as well as some bandits and heroes encountered.

Lu Changsheng gradually became fascinated.

Time passed quickly, the moon rose above the branches, and night fell quietly.

The surroundings were very quiet, with only the sound of flipping pages.

"In the 350th year of the Great Zhou calendar, all the villagers of Xitou Village in Qingyun County mysteriously disappeared. The county government searched for them in vain and the case was dropped..."

"In the 363rd year of the Great Zhou calendar, villagers in Caoping Village, Nanqiong County, were frightened to death..."

Half an hour later.

Lu Changsheng slowly closed the book with a grim expression.

This world is far more terrifying than he had imagined.

The most terrifying thing is not the bandits, but the mysterious existence hiding in the dark.

With the help of the faint light from outside, he then flipped through all the books on the ground.

The more he understood, the more vigilant Lu Changsheng became.

Before you have sufficient strength, the area outside the county town is definitely the most dangerous.

The night is gradually deepening.

Outside the house, twisted shadows of trees intertwined together, like a group of demons ready to devour anyone.

It was quiet all around.

"call……"

Lu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and was about to get up and leave.

Suddenly he seemed to remember something and walked quickly to a corner on the far right.

Then he knocked on the stone bricks on the ground with the back of his hand.

"Dong dong..."

The crisp knocking sounds echoed in the house.

Obviously there must be a secret compartment underground that can make such a sound.

He then remembered what his father had said before: "Changsheng, if you ever run into trouble, remember to look underground in the northwest corner of the utility room..."

Lu Changsheng didn't hesitate any longer and immediately removed the floor tiles.

I saw a black wooden box lying quietly in the small pit.

He picked up the wooden box and opened it.

Inside was a pornographic book and an object that looked like a medicinal herb.

A fresh fragrance hits your nostrils.

This is……?
Lu Changsheng picked up the medicinal herb, his face full of confusion.

"A hundred-year-old medicinal polygonatum has been detected. Is it absorbed..."

At this moment, an electronic synthesized voice suddenly sounded, startling Lu Changsheng.

"who!"

He shouted softly, but received no response.

"Could it be the golden finger?"

The other party didn't respond for a long time, and he immediately reacted, his expression slightly changed.

What happened next was indeed confirmed.

"Energy source detected, should we absorb it..."

Another electronic synthesized sound rang out, very cold and without any emotion.

"absorb."

Lu Changsheng thought silently in his heart.

At this moment, a warm current rushed into the body.

Immediately afterwards, a blue panel that only he could see appeared in the void in front of him.
