Chapter 001 This is a tragedy
The ebony horse has turned its head, saying: "Alright, alright, they are also pitiful, do not bully them anymore, let’s go, let’s take a look over there"
What exactly happened? The people here, clearly I do not recognize a single one, yet they seem to be very familiar with me. Could it be that they have mistaken me for someone else? That seems unlikely; it is not strange for one person to make a mistake, but could an entire group be nearsighted?
"Liszt, what are you standing there in a daze for! Don't you want to go sleep outside where it's cool!" A short, slender young man with brown short hair shouted at Liszt.
Both Nuo and Wumu are astonished
Li Si was taken aback and turned around, only to see two armored figures on horseback skillfully leaping up through the gaps between the tents. Their riding skills were proficient, and they wore armor that gleamed with a metallic luster, each wielding a long sword, exuding an imposing presence. Li Si felt a chill run down his spine; he was clad in leather, which paled in comparison to the metallic armor of these two individuals. These cavalrymen, wrapped up like metal cans... Li Si's mind finally confirmed completely that this was indeed the legendary phenomenon of time travel.
Li Si clenched his fist, snorted, and said: "You, come down, I want to challenge you to a duel!" In his previous life, Li Si worked as a fitness coach at a private club in Shanghai and was the runner-up in the 2010 Shanghai regional free fighting competition. He had learned internal martial arts since childhood, and seven or eight ordinary people were no match for him. It was quite frustrating to have crossed over like this, and now this Zhu Nuo foolishly came to provoke him. No matter who you are, I just need to vent my anger first
Suddenly, I realized that this scene is clearly from a time of war! Have I traveled back to ancient times, or have I arrived in another world? In the distance, I could hear what sounded like the snorting of horses, and a voice shouted from afar: "Halt! Crouch down!"
A single oil lamp emits a faint glow
Li Si furrowed his brow, learning ... ? ... barking like a dog? Do you think I can be easily bullied?
After some thought, he felt that it was possible; mistaking someone in the dark was also a possibility. But how did he end up here? He clearly remembered drinking with friends at the Qianbaiwei Restaurant, and then they all went their separate ways. It seemed like that. Upon returning home, how did he wake up to find everything wrong, like a hen turning into a duck? What is this tent all about?
Wumu smiled at Li Si and said, "Zhunuo, forget it. We are on duty right now, so let's not go too far. After all, he was once a member of the Li family, and it wouldn't be good if someone saw us."
Zhu Nuo saw that Li Si was not cowering on the ground as usual, and couldn't help but be surprised, wondering: "What is going on? Has Li Si lost his mind?"
Li Si coldly said, "Remember, don't be so arrogant in the future!" He turned to look at another ebony figure riding on horseback and asked, "What did you just call me, a noble?"
Zhu Nuo stubbornly said: "Haha, I didn't bully him; I just made him learn to bark like a dog. I dare say, Umo, you have grown up without ever imagining that the esteemed Li family would end up like this today! Listening to nobles barking like dogs, I feel exhilarated from head to toe!"
Wumu looked at Li Si with uncertainty and said: "You... you of the Li family were once one of the four great families, but later, the Li family intended to rebel..."
Li Si furrowed his brows. Could it be that the Li Si Te they knew was different from himself? Could this be the legendary possession and time travel? Li Si immediately thought, could it be that he no longer looked the same as before?
The two cavalrymen were dumbfounded, thinking they had misheard.
Li Si sneered, "Where did all this nonsense come from? I will make you call for your mother!" As soon as he finished speaking, he charged forward. The two were already very close, and with his swift movement, Zhu Nuo was taken aback. He swung his fist, and Li Si felt a tremendous pressure coming at him, exclaiming in surprise that this person was quite strong! He took advantage of the fact that this person was wearing armor, which made movement cumbersome, and engaged him in a direct clash. Without hesitation, he seized the opportunity to slip past him, reaching his side. Zhu Nuo was struck by Li Si's punch, infused with internal energy, causing his fist to nearly fracture, and his chest surged with blood and qi. Just as he was turning pale in shock, his vision blurred, and he lost sight of Li Si's figure. He called out in alarm, realizing he was in trouble, and his body flew out into the air. With the weight of his body and armor, he fell heavily, disoriented and unable to get back up.
He walked to the entrance of the tent with a light step, lifted the heavy curtain, and a gust of cold wind blew in, invigorating him. He heard someone say, "Just a little breeze is fine, but don't wander too far; be careful the inspection team might call you in for questioning."
Another person clearly saw Li Si's appearance and laughed, "Wumu, don't be nervous, it's Li Si Te." He shouted at Li Si, "Hey, Li Si Te, bark like a dog for me to hear!"
Just as this was said, a hurried sound of a horn suddenly came from the east. One long and three short notes caused the faces of two cavalrymen to change instantly. They could no longer pay attention to Li Si and shouted loudly: "Emergency military situation! Urgent! Get up! Everyone get up! Exotic magical beasts are coming!"
He gazed foolishly at the two approaching figures. Perhaps noticing that Li Si was unarmed, one of the cavalrymen reined in his horse and shouted, "What are you doing out here instead of sleeping? Don't you know the military regulations?"
Although Li Si was angry, he did not understand why he was swinging his knife from such a distance. Could it be that his knife could extend automatically? What surprised him even more was that he heard the terms "Li family" and "nobility" from the mouths of these two individuals, leaving Li Si utterly perplexed.
The people around him lay on the mattresses, each face unfamiliar and strange. Li Si swore that he did not recognize a single one of them. This is madness, what kind of people are these! He even noticed that beside each bunk, there was an oddly shaped and ancient knife, and on the walls of the tent, many shields were neatly arranged.
His face now no longer knows whether it is smiling or crying
Li Si suddenly thought of something, both shocked and horrified, where was there even a trace of drunkenness left? He hurriedly lowered his head to examine himself, only to find that he was wearing a set of black cloth garments, with dark brown leather wrapped around his chest and waist, laced together with fine cords in a decorative pattern. In this attire, if he were to hold a knife, he would clearly resemble a soldier from the cold weapon era. Oh heavens, have I traveled through time?
This brown-haired young man was clearly a leader, and no one dared to contradict him. One by one, they murmured and lay down. The lights went out, leaving only Li Si standing there with his mouth agape.
After reading online novels for two years, Li Si had encountered thunder-induced time travel, cliff diving time travel, plane crash time travel, and voluntary time travel, but he had yet to hear of time travel induced by alcohol
Li Si felt a tremor in his heart, the Supervisory Battle Team
Laughter erupted in the tent, and the little fellow was taken aback. Impatiently, he said, "Have you lost your mind from the fright during the day? Go to sleep! Who knows if there will be any sleep tomorrow!" He shouted to the other side, "You little rascals, what are you making a fuss about? Turn off the lights and go to sleep!"
Zhu Nuo laughed lightly, and after giving a pat on the horse's back, he jumped down, rubbed his fists a few times, and said to Li Si: "Although the nobles of yesteryear have fallen from grace, they still possess such a temper, which is quite good. I have patrolled all night and am frozen; it is just right to stretch my muscles and bones."
Wishing to be grand and ostentatious: "What we play at is nobility! The Li family has long since declined, and now that kid is nothing! Do we still need to fear them? Besides, who would know at this late hour?" Suddenly raising the long knife high above his head, he pretended to strike and shouted in a suppressed voice: "Still not calling out! Do you believe I will chop you down!"
As far as the eye can see, there are tents everywhere, stretching endlessly. The sky presents a scene he has never witnessed before; it is pitch black, and the moon seems to be obscured by thick clouds, with only the edges of the clouds revealing faint red light that illuminates the ground. Hundreds and thousands of tents are closely connected, and if there are people living inside, there could easily be tens of thousands here! Li Si gasps in astonishment, feeling increasingly puzzled and lost. What on earth is this place!
Li Si looked around in confusion, completely stunned. This was a low tent, quite spacious, inside which lay at least twenty people, all dressed in thin coarse cloth garments, some of them polishing swords and blades
Umu is clearly not as arrogant as Zhuno, who has been defeated, which is why Li Si only inquires about Umu
You are ... ... Do you know me? Who are you? How do you know my English name?
