Chapter 1, Heavenly Descend System (Part 1)
Chang'an City in the second year of Fengyou. The setting sun, which shone brightly over the city, was gradually setting in the west; the deep gauze-like night also began to descend and shroud the city of Xijing, which seemed to be one forever.
As a final farewell, the deep sound of the evening bell first came from the Great Ci'en Temple, drifting with the wind through the heavy Qiong Tower and deep buildings, past the gray tiles and green ridges of the Forbidden Palace walls; and then drifted leisurely through the rushing rapids. Like white strands and yellow wisps of water in Ba and Chan, they disappear in the dim sky of dusk.
And when the last round of closing bells have sounded, the chilly west wind has also blown down from Longshou Mountain, blowing over the majestic mill piles on the Wei River, blowing past old trees and 100-foot-high walls covered with creeping grass. It visited the two major cities in the east and west of Chang'an City, with thirty-five wide streets and one hundred and nine lanes;
It blew the thousands of weeping willows beside the Taiye Pond and the rows of golden peaches beside the ditch to flutter; it also blew away the remaining human smoke that lingered among the neighbors in the city. There was a burst of chilly night.
However, after nightfall completely fell, the usual deserted streets with almost no pedestrians were ushered in. Whether it was those Kingo disciples who started to ride horses and trample the forbidden streets while running around in groups;
Or, in the midst of the tiny commotion, they make barking noises like jackals, and wander around the gates of various houses, waiting to catch the prohibited persons. They all disappeared at this moment.
Instead, as the crowds and carriages rushed out of their homes in the city, lanterns gradually lit up and shone on the eaves, railings, pavilions, and canals everywhere;
On this special day once a year, Xijing is like a graceful lady with her hat and blouse lifted. Only at this moment can she fully reveal this magnificent and huge city, which is completely different from the hustle and bustle of the day. , a completely different side with waves of joy and lively singing.
However, frightened by the noisy popularity and bright lights, the birds flew up and hovered in the night sky for a long time, unable to land. There is also a jackdaw with shiny feathers and a plump body.
Amid the ubiquitous popularity and noise, it struggled to fly in the wind for a long time, and finally drove away the intrusive similar species, and found a place on some dilapidated wall beams where it could rest without being disturbed for the time being.
However, it tilted its head and flapped its proud wings with its mouth, and its beady-black eyes reflected the flickering lights shrouded in darkness behind the brightly lit street with crowds of people.
It was in the dimly lit empty alley, where two sweaty figures, one tall and one short, were dragging something; their reflections were swaying with the flickering lanterns, and crawling like ghosts on the mottled and peeling low walls. On the surface.
However, it didn't take long for one of the shorter figures to drop whatever he was holding and sit down on the ground, sticking out his tongue, smacking his lips, and panting like a dog.
Another tall figure was staggered by his sudden letting go, and he couldn't help but said in a dissatisfied voice:
"Sanpi'er, why did you stop again? How many times has this happened..."
"We are really exhausted, and this guy is too heavy. We'd better deal with him nearby..."
The short man named Sanpi'er kept touching the sweat on his forehead and gasped.
"That's because you used too much force in Chunfang Pavilion and turned into soft-shelled shrimps..."
The tall man couldn't help but mocked.
"You're an old hozen who only knows how to spit excrement. Even though I'm a soft-shelled shrimp, I can still beat you to the ground with one hand..."
Sanpi'er suddenly became a little anxious and shouted back, then kicked him again.
"Old...old...hozen, if I don't have to patch him up a few more times, I'll make sure the account is secured..."
"Don't cause more trouble for the bad guys in the neighborhood,"
After hearing this, the tall old hozen's expression changed.
"There are so many corpses here in the Yuan Dynasty. Isn't it because the princes from Jinwu and Wuyuan didn't come to inquire about the truth... I'll go to the uncle's house, how much medical supplies and gags will be spent on this?" capital……"
"Then...then...then I really can't delay it far..."
Sanpi'er pressed his leg with some hesitation.
"Then just listen to me, just find a shallow ditch and press it into it. Tomorrow, you will be reported as a drunken man who slipped and drowned. The street cleaners dragged him out and made him fat. Even Wude Si's marriage officials saw it. Don’t talk much…”
The old hozen said with a ferocious look on his face.
"Look at him, I will first find a channel with deep water, and then I will bring a broken can and smash it on the side so that I can do some work... This way, even if there are scratches on my body, I can get by..."
However, during their conversation, they ignored the human body dragging on the ground, which had been moving invisibly for a while.
"who I am?"
"I was there?"
"What should I do?……"
Following this thought-provoking three questions of the soul, the gray-white scene, solidified like a thick ice surface, suddenly became vivid and noisy from the senses of someone who was dragged to the ground.
It was just that in his blurry vision, it seemed that there was always a hazy gray night sky, reflecting the low-pressure clouds with dim lights, and the outline of the building that was involuntarily receding in a kind of upside-down state.
In an instant, people fell into some kind of nightmare-like scene. Could this be some kind of supernatural and terrifying world scene? Someone trembled all over as if captured by horror and abnormality.
Could it be that he traveled through time? It was like a sudden flood. As various scenes from his life poured out, two life memories with completely different time and space backgrounds were mixed into a pot of paste and intertwined back and forth in his mind.
I almost became an African's son-in-law and inherited the chief's position by relying on my skills as a cook in the army; Jiang Tian, the security captain of the Chinese-prefixed foreign aid agricultural project who works part-time as a team doctor, and who is working part-time as a behind-the-scenes special consultant for the domestic wilderness survival project team?
No, I was still ordered to live in Wenxin Lane, Guangdeli, Wannian County, Xijing. On the surface, Gao Yuanming worked as a teacher and a copywriter, but privately, he worked part-time as an inquisitor to make a living, but he almost died in this poor alley.
This back-and-forth, confusing and inverted cognition made him want to cover his swollen and painful forehead, but his whole body was so limp that he had no strength at all, and he was still unable to lift a finger; after a while, Only then did he put the pieces back together and restore them to what had happened before.
I had just finished shooting with the program crew in the majestic savanna, and returned to the container dormitory where I was temporarily stationed. I owed a lot of online articles and serials that I had not read yet. As a result, when I logged in, I found that all the websites of "Tongfeng404" had been removed from the shelves;
Then there are several terabytes of various Chinese and foreign collections accumulated in the solid-state hard drive. Many Paper Man wives and their fan works that were used to relieve fatigue in the black continent where AIDS is rampant were also destroyed due to inexplicable viruses; while angrily smashing the laptop keyboard but The moment he was electrocuted.
The next moment, it turned into a frantically running through a brightly lit street market, a bustling festival night with singing and dancing, the intense emotion of being anxious about losing something important, and finally, the fragments of a dark and sinking chaotic scene caused by a sudden sharp pain in the back of the head.
"Main God", "System", "Caoliu", or some indescribable existence among powers, come out quickly and give me a hint and guidance. . . . Then, as if he felt his prayers and roaring heart, the retreating scene suddenly stopped.
In the still field of vision, a green subtitle text suddenly popped up:
"Do you want to change the world?"
"In no mood!"
"Do you want to save lives?"
"In no mood!"
"Do you want to gain power?"
"I don't want to either!"
Jiang Tian almost roared out in consciousness:
"I just want to go back,"
After all, he had already tasted enough of the wild taste of being far away from the modern social elements of water and electricity networks.
What's more, he still has several gigabytes of collections on his hard drive that he hasn't read yet, and he hasn't had time to catch up on a lot of "Your Wife Is Awesome" extras and dramas; new MODs for customized games such as "Artificial Girl" and "Customized Maid" No achievements have been unlocked yet. . .
"..."
In the empty static field of vision, I didn't know how long I paused before picking out another prompt:
"Survival mission released: "Alive!""
Then it turned into a bunch of explanatory text:
"The city where materialism abounds, the prosperous Shangjing, the most beautiful place in the world, the indescribable darkness under the lamp, the desperate struggle for help... The heterotopic body with the time and space inverted, where will it go?"
"Grass (plant attribute)!"
Now that he has understood everything he is encountering, as a modern person with normal outlook on life and a considerable future, Jiang Tian is naturally unwilling to sit still and wait for death, and suddenly wants to struggle and do something;
But I only felt this omnipresent feeling of weakness all over my body, and it seemed that even trying to turn my neck and waist became very difficult.
But Jiang Tian did not give up easily. As the other person left, he tried to calm down the rhythm of his breathing and his violently beating heart. With the help of the shadow in the corner, he began to grope the rough yet sharp ground with his palms dragged backwards;
Finally, after unintentionally scratching the pads of two fingers, he felt a loose edge on the hard sandy ground. It might be a broken tile, but it was Jiang Tian's only way out at the moment.
"Moved!!"
However, at this time, Sanpi'er, who was guarding the side, also turned his head with a sigh. He had a pock-marked face that was malnourished and emaciated. His expression twitched with surprise, as if he had a funny face. mask.
But something he held up in his hand made Jiang Tian unable to laugh at all. The whistling wind blew and screams arose. The swinging stick hit Jiang Tian's ear with a forceful tilt of his head, and the splash of sand even splashed into his mouth.
But the next moment Sanpi suddenly felt a sharp pain in his foot, but it was Jiang Tian who pulled out the sharp end of the broken tile in his hand and knocked it on his ankle without any gap; in an instant, it was like a baby's mouth opened. , a stream of blood spurted out, and the painful Sanpi'er suddenly turned sideways and fell to the ground with his feet in his arms, wailing loudly.
However, he was followed by Jiang Tian, who suddenly kicked his leg and put it on his face. His wails suddenly stopped, and the back of his head hit the earth wall hard, making a muffled sound. Suddenly everything turned upside down. Then he shook his head and wanted to reach out to touch the fallen stick.
However, Jiang Tian, who was so agitated that he was about to explode, continued to muster up the remaining strength in his upper body, turned sideways and pinched the middle finger bone with a fist-breaking force, and punched Sanpi'er's raised nose head-on;
It was as if something soft and crunchy suddenly burst from his face as he raised his head to scream. The movement of him slapping his legs and slapping his legs suddenly seemed to be cut off out of thin air. He leaned against the wall and fell to the side.
Seeing that the other person's breathing, which was coming out but not taking in, was getting weaker and weaker, and finally he stopped moving at all and his body became stiff and erect. With all his strength, Jiang Tian finally came to his senses and managed to avoid falling into collapse again. And on the first day I crossed over, I had to kill someone in self-defense.
"Fuck, this should be considered self-defense..."
At this moment, he muttered helplessly in his heart.
You must know that I have shot antelopes and wildebeests in the tribal reservation area, hunted ferocious crocodiles and fierce wild buffaloes, and also used guns to shoot and intimidate armed robbers from a distance in the construction site. molecular.
But it was the first time in his life that he had killed someone in close combat with bare hands. However, there was no discomfort or disgust in killing him in one go, as if it was an instinctive reaction to survive. Could it be that there is still a suppressed murderer hidden in his body?
Then, in the recruit camp when he joined the army, the words of the old squad leader who looked exactly like "Secretary Dakang" rang in my ears again:
"You have such a bad temper that you like to hide in silence. You should have joined the army for training..."
At this time, a line of green text flashed in the field of vision again:
"The first step of survival is completed. Energy is being collected..."
"The body is in danger and is being repaired automatically... Insufficient charging, the body is severely weak (29.1%)."
