Chapter 2, The Bandits Are Fierce
A sudden thought of luck emerged in Li Yi's mind
The appearance is indeed handsome, worthy of our village chief
... ...
Later, officials came and said that Widow Liu had gone mad. They brought iron chains and locked her in her home, warning the villagers to keep a close watch on her. If she were to escape and harm someone, they would be held jointly responsible.
No one expected that the Li family's boy, who was so weak that he could barely lift a chicken and needed to rest for a long time after walking just a few steps, could actually run so fast
After running at full speed for so long, he had nearly exhausted all his strength. If those two big men were to chase after him now, Li Yi would not even have the strength to stand up and escape
What happened, was there an earthquake
It is unclear who exactly invented this type of clothing, with its layers upon layers. Li Yi spent quite a while trying to untangle it, and when he looked down, he indeed found that the area above his lower abdomen was red.
Having died once, Li Yi cherishes his life more than anyone else. At this moment, he undoubtedly exhibits the fastest speed he has ever achieved in his life.
At that moment, Li Yi suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet begin to tremble
The distant mountains-like dark eyebrows slightly furrowed, as if pondering something. Looking at that incredibly delicate face, Li Yi felt a dryness in his throat. Before he could speak, he saw the woman gently nod her head, a satisfied expression appearing on her face. She cast a faint glance at him and waved her delicate hand: "Bound!"
In Li Yi's vacant gaze, the fierce mountain bandits behind the woman dismounted and surged forward
Behind him, the old man and two strong men stared in astonishment at Li Yi, who was speeding away, nearly dropping their jaws in shock
Mountain bandit
In the remnants of consciousness, it seems that I was once supported by someone to a certain place, where there were both kneeling and bowing...
However, Li Yi soon realized that this was not an earthquake
That house is certainly not worth returning to, not to mention that inside there are only four walls, a table, and a bed, with not even a morsel of food. Perhaps when he returns, the entire village will be at the village entrance, welcoming him with torches—then he can once again meet his glorious end.
On top of a tall horse, a stunning woman dressed in a white fitted outfit was gazing down at him
If you ask me, the Second Miss has a good eye
Joking aside, he just heard clearly that the old man said he had something like 'madness'... If he gets caught, who knows, he might be treated as possessed by evil spirits, tied to a pillar and burned or something like that...
He had seen this expression on Widow Liu's face before, recalling that a few days ago, Widow Liu at the east end of the village was also like this. After waking up from a nap, she did not know who she was, sitting in the yard all day with a silly smile. Once someone approached her, she would immediately scream and claw and bite at them
... ...
At this moment, Li Yi found himself lacking the inclination to scold those thieves; he had to confront his current situation.
... ...
Was I just dreaming?
Li Yicui was caught off guard and inhaled a large mouthful of PM2.5, causing tears to stream down his face
After Li Yi's imaginative brainstorming, his expression suddenly turned to one of great terror
After sitting on the ground and regaining a bit of strength, Li Yi felt troubled once again.
Some fragments lingering in his mind caused Li Yi's expression to change. He turned his head and glanced around, only to find that there was no one else in the room besides himself, which eased his mind slightly
It seems that this person who has lost their mind truly cannot be judged by common sense..." The old man stroked his long beard and couldn't help but exclaim.
Breathing heavily, feeling as if my entire body is on the verge of collapse
It seems that he must have been captured by those bandits and taken somewhere. While he was lying on the horse's back, he faintly heard those people mentioning words like "bandit leader" and "getting married"...
In the next moment, Li Yi understood that having such an idea was merely a dream
Fearing that he would be captured by those two burly men and burned alive as a lunatic, Li Yi raced forward until he could no longer see the village at all, and when there was no one in sight pursuing him, he finally sat down on the ground.
Although I do not know what era it is now or where it is, it is certainly better than being burned to death under the bookshelf; at the very least, I am still alive
Li Yi twisted his expression as he pressed on his lower abdomen, the fiery pain radiating from beneath his clothing made him involuntarily gasp for air. Li Yi cursed inwardly, knowing without a doubt that it was during the time spent on horseback that those rough fellows had caused this discomfort
No, it is the bandit chief!
Looking down again, Li Yi realized that he was no longer wearing the clothes he had put on in the morning. He did not know when he had changed into a bright red robe, adorned with a large, bright red flower on his chest. It looked as festive as could be.
Li Yi watched as the old man changed his expression in an instant. He turned his head and saw two burly men jogging towards this side.
... ...
Because it hurts!
The carved bed railing, the quilt exuding a faint fragrance, and the pink, girlish canopy create a charming atmosphere. Beyond this, there are simply arranged wooden furniture pieces: a table, chairs, and a cabinet
If we also consider the one on the head, which is adorned with... ? ... wild chicken feathers? Peacock feathers! ? In any case, it is a hat made of unknown feathers, perfectly resembling the attire of a groom in a historical drama!
Looking at the Li family child who was staring at him with a dazed expression, the old man took a few steps back, feeling even more vigilant in his heart
He was actually taken back by someone and treated as a captive wife
... ...
But where will he sleep at night if he doesn't go back
When he woke up again, the first thing he saw upon opening his eyes was the pink gauze curtain. Li Yi rolled over and climbed out of bed, cautiously surveying everything around him
Cough! Cough!
Hehe, he is a scholar
After finally regaining composure, just as I was about to curse at whoever was so lacking in manners, I looked up and was momentarily taken aback.
Li Yi felt deep sorrow; having barely escaped being burned to death upon arrival, now he was faced with an earthquake. What sins had he committed in his past life!
Rumbling ... ...
There is no need to ascertain anything further, Li Yi is almost certain that he has caught up with the wave of time travel
Li Yi's hands were bound behind his back, lying horizontally on the horse's back. Having felt dizzy even on a bus in his previous life, he clearly had not adapted to the transportation of this era. He was swaying all the way, feeling increasingly dizzy, and his consciousness gradually blurred. Occasionally, the rough laughter of men reached his ears, their voices as noisy as a broken gong. Later, he faintly heard a delicate reprimand, and then those sounds disappeared, leaving Li Yi completely unconscious.
Upon arriving in this world, Li Yi's foremost challenge is to address the issue of survival
Everyone shut up
At the end of the distant horizon, a torrent composed of smoke and dust rolled towards him, stopping just a few steps in front of Li Yi, who looked on in astonishment
As those fragmented images flashed one by one in his mind, Li Yi's face turned pale.
The difference lies only in where one is burned to death
... ...
After a brief moment of distraction, Li Yi did not hesitate at all—he took off running!
