Chapter 1: The Homebody Who Travels Through Time

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

After listening to the monkey's words, Lu Qiang felt relieved. With the bruising at the back of his head, it provided him with a perfect excuse to pretend to have amnesia. As for what happens next, that can be dealt with later, as there is no immediate danger to his life

But what? The tiger immediately became excited, grabbing the monkey's shoulder and asking loudly, while Lu Qiang also looked at the monkey, worried that there might be some bad questions. He certainly did not want to meet his end right after crossing over

He hurriedly opened his eyes, and what met his gaze were beams of the house, covered with cobwebs. At first glance, it was clear that this was not the 10 square meters small room he had rented. He thought he might be seeing things, so he blinked his eyes... and upon opening them again, the same scene appeared before him: the dusty beams and the numerous cobwebs. Lu Qiang expressed his confusion about what was happening.

In his dream, Lu Qiang found himself transported to Nanjing, where he was a second lieutenant in the National Revolutionary Army. Nanjing had fallen, and he was fleeing with a group of over ten subordinates. While crossing the river, they seized a few wooden planks, and the group floated on these planks towards the opposite bank. Then, Japanese military planes and warships appeared, unleashing a barrage on the Yangtze River, causing countless people to suffer. After enduring several attacks from the Japanese forces, only three of Lu Qiang's group remained, including himself, making a total of four. Subsequently, a shell from the Japanese army landed near the floating plank, exploding and engulfing the area in flames. After the blaze, Lu Qiang felt nothing but darkness.

Cough cough cough... Lu Qiang coughed a few times, feeling a bit dazed, perhaps due to staying up too late. This was Lu Qiang's thought as he sat up from the bed. His first sensation was pain, intense pain, so much so that he couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah—pain, pain, pain!" Lu Qiang shouted loudly.

However, Hu Zhuang remained anxious, looking at the monkey, his mouth opened slightly, but he did not speak out.

"Monkey, come and see, what's wrong with the boss? Has his brain been damaged by the little devils' bombs?" Hu Zhuang shouted as he pulled Monkey to Lu Qiang's bedside.

"What do you want?" Lu Qiang looked at the man in front of him with a face full of terror

Uh— the boss knows how to curse, it seems there is nothing wrong. The monkey paused for a moment when he saw Lu Qiang suddenly cursing, then turned around and said to Hu Zhuang

The monkey approached Lu Qiang, took his pulse, examined his eyes, and finally felt the back of his head. In the end, he concluded: "The boss's body is recovering very well, only the external injuries remain, but..." The monkey hesitated, his brow furrowed.

"Boss, it's me, Hu Zhuang, don't you recognize me?" The man who introduced himself as Hu Zhuang, seeing Lu Qiang's reaction, immediately pointed at himself and exclaimed loudly, looking anxious, fearing that he would not be recognized.

Just as Lu Qiang was lost in chaotic thoughts, Hu Zhuang returned, bringing someone with him, who should be the monkey Hu Zhuang mentioned. Lu Qiang took a glance; the person was very thin, wearing a yellow-green military uniform, resembling that of the National Revolutionary Army. Wait, the National Revolutionary Army...? Doesn't that mean the Kuomintang? Doesn't that imply: chaos → war → death

Lu Qiang does not care about others' thoughts; he is already overjoyed in his heart. It would be even better if you said it out loud, so he said lightly: "I think I might have lost my memory"

"Boss, it's me, Hu Zhuang. What's wrong? How could you forget even me? Did a shell shock your brain?" Hu Zhuang said anxiously. "By the way, go find Monkey; he should know what's going on." Without waiting for Lu Qiang to respond, he dashed out like a gust of wind.

It is already past 3 o'clock in the dawn, and Lu Qiang expressed that this game is quite good and has added it to his collection. He plans to take a nap first, as for the name of this game... I also do not know.

In a room of about 10 square meters, there is a computer and a bed, with the computer positioned right next to the head of the bed, making it possible to fall asleep as soon as one lies down.

"Boss, you are awake!" A deep and resonant voice reached Lu Qiang's ears, slightly excited, indicating that the owner of the voice must be very happy... Wait a minute, the voice? Happy? And what about that 'boss' thing? Why does my body hurt so much? Could it be that I was robbed? A series of speculations flashed through Lu Qiang's mind, while he was temporarily unaware of which ancestor's home his body had been thrown to.

The monkey glanced at Lu Qiang and said, "Boss, the shell from the enemy's artillery has left a large bruise on the back of your head. I don't know when it will dissipate, nor do I know what impact it may have on you in the future"

In a rental apartment in Shangjing City, Lu Qiang was happily playing an online game. As for which online game it was, Lu Qiang himself did not know, because he played games without registering. Especially those web games that popped up on the page, he would never play them a second time, and thus there was no need for him to register.

This is a military-themed shooting game, featuring a wide range of firearms from World War II to modern times, including various advanced and outdated weapons. Personally, I find it quite enjoyable and worth revisiting, unlike those one-time games that lose their appeal after just one playthrough

"Boss, you are awake!" The man ran to the bedside with a face full of excitement, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Lu Qiang, making Lu Qiang's heart race. "This guy isn't into men, is he?" Lu Qiang thought to himself that he was still innocent and pure, while he chose to ignore the man's initial remark.

The monkey seemed to know what he wanted to say, and thus spoke: "Don't worry, there is no danger to life, it's just that sometimes your head will hurt in the future, and in severe cases, you may experience memory loss." After finishing his words, the monkey's face wrinkled up, indicating trouble

At the sound of "Kuang Tang," it was clear that the door had been pushed open. Lu Qiang turned his head with great difficulty to see a burly man, whose arms were thicker than Lu Qiang's thighs. His skin was dark and shiny, and the muscles on his bare chest were comparable to a B cup, impressively developed. Lu Qiang had no doubt that the other party could easily kill him with just one hand.

At this moment, Lu Qiang felt a bit dazed and confused, unable to comprehend the situation. Subconsciously, he believed he had traveled through time, yet he found it hard to accept. Time travel was such a distant concept, and now it seemed to be happening to him, making it difficult for him to believe. Moreover, the world around him appeared to be quite chaotic. The man he had just seen was wearing yellow-green pants that resembled military trousers, and he distinctly heard the term "shell". Could it be that he was on some battlefield?

Suddenly regaining his senses, Lu Qiang heard the word 'bad' and thought the other person was insulting him, so he retorted, 'You are the one who is bad, all of you are bad. Si———' Because of the insult, which indicated punishment, the movement aggravated his wound, causing Lu Qiang to tremble in pain

Damn it, how did I end up in the Republic of China... Lu Qiang cursed inwardly, not knowing when it was, whether the War of Resistance against Japan had broken out or if it was the Liberation War, could it be during the Long March period...

Oh! That's good. Hu Zhuang let out a sigh, indicating that he was no longer worried

"What kind of big shot are you? Who exactly are you? Where is this place? You should know that kidnapping is a crime; this is a society governed by the rule of law," Lu Qiang said, feeling "chilled to the bone." He now believed that this was a kidnapping case and that he had been abducted.
