Chapter 2, Returning to the Mountain Village of the Ming Dynasty as a Hunter (2)

In fact, the sensation of weightlessness did not last long; it quickly dissipated, so swiftly that Shang Yi almost felt it was an illusion of his own making. The thick fog also soon cleared completely. It was only then that Shang Yi realized the sky had brightened significantly, but he also discovered that he was no longer in his original location, but rather in an unfamiliar place

It is precisely because I have devoted myself wholeheartedly to training and studying that, at the age of twenty-three, I have yet to have a formal girlfriend, having only sought the services of a few escorts to address my physiological needs. This regret can likely be remedied in this era. Where are the beautiful women in this age? Aren't the renowned Eight Beauties of Qinhuai all from this era? With my elegant demeanor, handsome appearance, charming charisma, and captivating presence, isn't it just a matter of reaching out to grasp it?

At this moment, Shang Yi could not help but feel a bit flustered, and he did not dare to move around recklessly. However, just then, he suddenly felt his feet give way, as if he had fallen into a pit, and his whole body seemed to lose weight, rapidly descending.

Before his time travel, Shang Yi had read numerous time-travel novels. In these stories, the protagonists, whether in chaotic or prosperous times, could command the winds and rain, making a name for themselves. They would often become kings or conquerors, and at the very least, they would be granted titles and high positions. Of course, they also frequently took many beautiful women as wives. This is one of the advantages of ancient times; unlike modern society, where having a mistress or a third party always comes with the constant concern of how to make them legitimate.

The equipment assembly includes a micro ultra-thin laptop, which, although only the size of an A5 sheet of copy paper and no thicker than 3 centimeters, was at the time the most advanced, fastest, and largest capacity laptop, equipped with wireless internet and camera functions. It stored a complete set of encyclopedias and various materials collected by Shang Yi himself. In fact, this laptop was not a necessary piece of equipment for special forces; it was merely a habitual item that Shang Yi carried with him to easily look up information whenever needed. Of course, the internet functionality has now become obsolete.

Although they are all in the jungle, the trees in different areas are absolutely different. Shang Yi is a soldier who has undergone rigorous wilderness survival training, and identifying plants is a basic skill. Naturally, he can discern that this is definitely not the mountainous region at the junction of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangxi. Upon checking the electronic devices he carries, they all function normally; however, all communication devices have no signal. He can only use the infrared remote control function of the GPS locator to determine direction and search for traces of people.

In addition, Shang Yi has a toolbox containing commonly used accessories and lubricants for various tools and weapons, as well as first aid supplies. There is also a Swiss Army knife and a high-magnification telescope. Lastly, there is a large military backpack, a canteen, and a set of camouflage clothing and combat boots that Shang Yi wears. After all, for this mission, Shang Yi is operating solo, and these are the only weapons and equipment he can carry. However, the electronic weapons and devices can be charged using solar energy; otherwise, more than half of them would become useless.

The defensive gear includes a helmet made of steel, equipped with night vision and communication capabilities; however, the communication function is no longer operational. Additionally, there is a set of bulletproof vests, which includes two wrist guards that can protect the entire forearm and a pair of shin guards that can protect the calves. Although the bulletproof vest cannot provide 100% bulletproof protection, having it significantly enhances survival capability on the battlefield

Although with my own equipment and military skills, I might be invincible in one-on-one combat, and no expert could withstand my shot. However, in the context of this grand era, individual power is indeed too insignificant. Even a thousand-man army is not something I can handle alone

Ah..." Shang Yi let out a loud shout, turned over, sat up, rubbed his eyes, and collected his thoughts. Only then did he realize that he had once again had a nightmare

Since he couldn't sleep anyway, Shang Yi began to seriously contemplate his future plans. It was not only his body that had crossed over to this era, but also the something he carried with him.

Upon thinking of this, Shang Yi suddenly felt that traveling back to ancient times might not be such a bad thing after all. With his modern knowledge and military skills, along with the equipment he had brought, achieving great things would not be difficult. Moreover, in that past timeline, he was an absolutely outstanding soldier, not only possessing top-notch professional abilities but also having successfully completed missions several times, earning two first-class merits and three second-class merits, along with a considerable number of medals. Furthermore, in that past timeline, he was an absolutely outstanding soldier, not only possessing top-notch professional abilities but also having successfully completed missions several times, earning two first-class merits and three second-class merits, along with a considerable number of medals.

Subsequent events became straightforward. Shang Yi discovered a small mountain village in a valley, where he encountered Ye Yaotao, who was washing clothes by the pond at the village entrance. It was then that he realized this was actually the Yimeng Mountain area in Shandong Province, and the year was the 15th year of Chongzhen, which corresponds to September 1642. Not only had he traversed nearly four hundred years of time, but he had also crossed a distance of over two thousand kilometers. With no immediate path to take, Shang Yi had no choice but to stay in this small mountain village, residing in Ye Yaotao's home.

However, Shang Yi is certainly not someone who is content with the status quo or willing to settle for mediocrity. Since he has crossed over to this era, it is unlikely that he can return. Therefore, he should optimistically accept this fate and strive to do something in this time. Whether he succeeds or not does not matter; after all, he has already experienced death once. This time, whatever fate he encounters can be considered a gain.

Thinking of this lovely little girl, Shang Yi could not help but feel a trace of joy in his heart; she was the first person he encountered upon arriving in this time and space

Weapons are categorized into primary weapons, auxiliary weapons, and defensive equipment. The primary weapon includes a fully automatic submachine pistol, equipped with ten magazines, each containing twelve rounds, along with an additional two hundred rounds of loose ammunition. In total, there are three hundred and twenty rounds. It is also equipped with a silencer and a night vision scope. Additionally, there are twelve mini grenades. These grenades are only the size of a duck egg, but their explosive power is no less than that of standard grenades. Each grenade is fitted with an automatic detonation device, set to explode in 120 seconds, which can be used as a timed bomb if necessary

Additionally, there is a GPS global positioning device equipped with infrared remote control functionality. While the GPS global positioning feature is no longer operational, the infrared remote control can detect thermal signals from up to 1,500 meters away and can distinguish between humans, large animals, and small animals.

The equipment carried by Shang Yi is divided into two categories: one is weapons, and the other is equipment assembly

Unknowingly, I have been in this time and space for more than ten days. I have already adapted to some aspects of life here, but I still often have nightmares while sleeping. The moonlight shines through the window, illuminating everything in the room clearly. The camouflage uniform stained with bear blood has already been cleaned by Ye Yaoyao and is currently draped over the table

The auxiliary weapon is a folding crossbow, equipped with sixteen crossbow bolts. Due to the significant reduction in range after the pistol is fitted with a silencer, it only has a range of fifty meters, while the effective range of the crossbow is approximately one hundred fifty meters. Therefore, in situations requiring silent operations, such as in armories or oil depots, the crossbow remains highly useful. Additionally, there is a combat-style straight knife, with an overall length of forty-eight centimeters, a blade length of thirty-five centimeters, and a handle length of thirteen centimeters, manufactured using modern alloy technology, primarily for close combat. There is also a pair of nunchaku, which is not a necessary equipment for special forces but rather a personal preference of Shang Yi. Furthermore, there is another combat-style straight knife, with the same specifications as mentioned earlier. In addition to these, there is a military-grade grappling hook, equipped with a fifteen-meter steel wire.

Shang Yi immediately stopped in his tracks and turned on the GPS, but it also malfunctioned, showing no signal. He called the headquarters, but all he could hear in his earpiece was static; there was nothing else. Suddenly, all communication and positioning systems around him became ineffective. Before him lay nothing but a vast expanse of white, with no visibility of anything else.

Shang Yi shook his head, awakening from his memories. Although the conditions in this small mountain village were quite rudimentary, Shang Yi had undergone field training and executed missions in the army, where enduring the elements was a common occurrence. Therefore, after more than ten days of adaptation, he had basically become accustomed to life here. However, could he really just stay in this small mountain village for an extended period of time

At this moment, the sky had already darkened, but Shang Yi had a GPS locator and infrared remote guidance, and his helmet was equipped with night vision goggles, making the night indistinguishable from day. Therefore, he continued to hurry along the path. Unknowingly, he had walked for over an hour when suddenly, Shang Yi discovered that the infrared night vision goggles had malfunctioned, and before him lay a pitch-black expanse. He pushed up the infrared night vision goggles and realized that, at some point, a layer of white mist had formed around him, and everything was shrouded in a gray haze, rendering him unable to see his own hand.

Alright, 0056, please feel free to stay in contact, 0056, please feel free to stay in contact, call ended

Shang Yi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, momentarily losing his drowsiness. He got up and approached the window. It was probably around the middle of the night, and the surroundings were utterly silent, with a profound stillness. Only occasionally could one hear the howls of wolves and the roars of tigers echoing from the mountains and forests.

Shang Yi turned off the ear pulse, adjusted the helmet again, glanced at the GPS on his wrist, and then plunged into the jungle

In the twenty-first century, special forces are a highly valued military branch in countries around the world. A qualified special forces soldier not only receives a good education and rigorous training but also often uses the best equipment available in the entire military. Because they had just received an airdrop supply before their deployment, all of Shang Yi's equipment is now complete

Shang Yi is a soldier in the special forces of a certain military district of the People's Liberation Army of China, currently aged twenty-three. He has been ordered to pursue a group of terrorists in the primeval forests at the junction of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangxi. Shang Yi and his comrades have already spent five days and nights in the jungle, engaging in three fierce battles with the terrorists, resulting in the elimination of over eighty terrorists, with the remaining personnel fleeing towards the border. After a brief rest and receiving supplies airdropped by the Air Force, Shang Yi and his comrades immediately set off in different directions.

Shang Yi let out a bitter laugh, finally putting an end to his wild thoughts. He was not unaware of the historical context of this period in China; it was now the late Ming Dynasty, and in less than two years, the Ming would officially fall. Following that, the Manchus would enter the pass, and the land of China would face over a decade of turmoil. In fact, even now, the outside world was in chaos.
