Chapter 1:
In Suzhou City, there are many water lanes and small bridges, and people live by the river. Following the water flow, when the boat sways and waves into the depths of the water lane, Suzhou inadvertently reveals the charm of a slender figure. The scenery of Gusu, accompanied by the soft Wu dialect and the babbling Jiangnan tunes, quietly reveals. Suzhou is a gentle place that requires slow and careful walking.
At this time, people are coming and going on a small bridge, and people are in a hurry to start a busy day. What is different from everyone else is a young man standing by the bridge. If someone observes carefully, he will find that this person has been standing here for almost an hour.
"So, I traveled through time?"
"Soul travel?" The young man looked down at his clothes, which were not much different from those of the pedestrians around him.
Suddenly, the young man who had not moved for a long time rushed down the bridge and ran straight to the river.
He was seen lying on the shore, and then slowly stretched his head to the surface of the river.
Looking at the face reflected in the river, the young man was relieved.
"It's okay, it's okay." After confirming that it was still his body, the young man was relieved, and then walked under a willow tree, leaning against the willow tree to think about what had just happened.
The young man's name is Su Yu, 24 years old, just an ordinary person. After graduating from college, he didn't find a suitable job, so he started delivering food. After delivering the last takeaway today, it was already 11:30 at night. He was exhausted and rode his electric bike home. He didn't pay attention at a bend and was hit by an off-road vehicle that was driving very fast. In his memory, when he was hit in the air, a glowing thing flew into his forehead, and then the feeling of landing did not happen. After he regained consciousness, he stood on the bridge just now.
Su Yu patted his cheek and tried to calm himself down. It was just a time travel. It was the standard equipment of earthlings. These days, as long as you are an earthling, you probably have to wear it once.
"This should be ancient times." Su Yu said secretly. He was sure from the clothes and the surrounding houses and buildings.
"Gurgle..." Suddenly, Su Yu's stomach sent a signal of hunger. He had not eaten anything after delivering express for a day, and he was already hungry.
Then Su Rui touched his whole body, clean, nothing.
"No way, do I have to starve to death just after I came here?"
"Oh, that white light. System, system, are you there?" Su Rui recalled the mysterious white light and shouted hurriedly.
"Hook?"
"Open Sesame?"
"..."
"No, did I see it wrong? The white light did enter my body. Could it be that I don't have a system? How can I play this?" Su Yu was a little depressed. After trying countless methods, he couldn't summon the system, so he had to doubt that he didn't have a system. After all, not all time travelers have systems.
Su Yu had no choice but to get up and walk back to the street to see if there was any way to get some food.
Suzhou City was bigger than he expected, and there were more people. Su Yu looked at the local customs and customs around him while walking. He found that there were many people holding weapons on the street, and couldn't help but think, could this be a martial arts world? Thinking of this, he felt even more depressed. He might be able to survive with his own strength, but that would be a disgrace to thousands of travelers.
After walking for a day, Su Yu became more and more tired. He had no choice but to walk to a street corner. Tired and hungry, he found a corner and lay down with a brick as a pillow. After all, it has been nearly 30 hours since he started delivering food and crossed over here. Compared with hunger, he urgently needs to sleep.
Unconsciously, Su Yu slept for several hours. He was sleeping soundly when his legs suddenly hurt, and then his body was pressed by a heavy object.
"Ouch." It was a woman's voice.
"Ouch." Su Yu also shouted in pain.
Feeling someone pressing on him, Su Yu ignored the pain in his legs and pushed the person away.
"Who is it? Don't you have eyes when walking?" Su Yu said angrily. Anyone who was touched like this while sleeping would be very angry.
"Yes, sorry, it's too dark, I can't see clearly." The man also got up from the ground and said while rubbing his arm.
"Huh? A woman." Su Yu was stunned for a moment. He looked up. It was dark and he couldn't see clearly, but he could vaguely see long hair. It was indeed a woman.
"Forget it, forget it." Su Yu waved his hand, indicating that he would not bother with the woman.
"Thank you." The woman thanked him hurriedly, and then hurried out of the alley.
"Tsk, being oppressed by a woman in the middle of the night, it's really... Ouch, why didn't I ask her for some money?" Su Yu slapped his forehead and said.
At this moment, a woman's cry came from the other end of the alley.
"Please, let me go, I won't go back, please." The woman cried.
"Hehe, want to run? No woman who enters Wanhua Tower can run away." A slightly rough voice said.
Seeing this, Su Yu hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the bricks on the ground and quietly walked towards the entrance of the alley where the sound came from.
With the moonlight, Su Yu saw that at the corner of the alley, the woman was being pulled out by a sturdy man by the arm.
"Please, let me go." The woman continued to beg.
"Look, the madam likes you so much, she wants to make you the top girl, and you will have a good life in the future, isn't that good?" the man continued.
"Ah..." Suddenly, the man covered his hand and cried out in pain.
"You bitch, you are looking for death."
"Pah..." The man slapped the woman to the ground.
The woman fainted, and the man bent down to carry her.
"Tsk tsk, she's so beautiful, why don't I enjoy her first, and then throw her into the river to drown, the madam will definitely not know." The man said to himself.
At this moment, the man suddenly found a gust of wind behind him, and when he was about to look back, a shadow suddenly hit him.
"Plop..." The man fell to the ground without a groan.
"Bah, damn, I can't help it." Su Yu spit and said.
Then he quickly squatted down to turn over the man's clothes, and then took out a few pieces of silver from him.
"Hey, great." Su Yu took the silver and was about to leave.
But he stopped after walking a few steps and looked back at the woman lying on the ground.
"Hey, it's probably going to be trouble if I leave it here, forget it." Su Yu went back and carried the woman on his back.
"Uh... so fragrant." Su Yu said secretly. Then he carried the woman on his back and walked out of the alley.
The man who was knocked down by Su Yu just now, blood slowly flowed from his head. After a while, the man who was still groaning gradually lost his breath.
At this time, Su Yu carried the woman on his back and walked all the way. Fortunately, the woman was not heavy. After walking through several alleys, he found a dilapidated yard without a door and walked in under the moonlight.
"Oh my, my old waist." Su Yu put the woman down.
At this moment, an electronic voice sounded in Su Yu's mind.
"Ding."
Su Yu was stunned.
"Congratulations to the host, the first kill was successful, the system was successfully activated, and the system is loading."
Su Yu's expression suddenly became complicated. He actually had a system, the first kill? It seems that the brick just now directly knocked the man to death.
"Did you kill someone? Why don't you feel guilty at all." Su Yu said secretly.
"System? System?" Su Yu shouted.
"The system is loading, please wait."
"Okay." Su Yu said helplessly.
Then Su Yu began to look around here. It seemed to be a house that had been empty for a long time. Because the light was very dim, it was not very clear.
Su Yu looked back at the woman on the ground, shook her head, took off her clothes and covered her with them, while she was only wearing a small jacket. Fortunately, the weather was not too cold.
Su Yu sat on the ground, leaning against the pillar, staring at the moon in the sky.
"I didn't expect that I would travel through time one day." Su Yu thought with a wry smile.
"Hmm..."
At this time, the girl behind Su Yu woke up.
"Ah..." The girl opened her eyes and saw a dark place, and then saw a person sitting not far in front of her, and she was frightened and screamed.
"Hey, hey..., am I that scary?" Su Yu turned around and said.
The girl heard the voice and found that it was not the person who caught her before, so she asked hurriedly.
"Who are you, what do you want to do?" She covered her chest with the clothes Su Yu covered her.
"Well, what a familiar plot."
"I said, you stepped on me before, and I saved your life, so you turned your face and didn't recognize me?" Su Yu said.
"Step on you? Ah, you are the beggar just now." The girl was surprised.
Su Yu almost fainted when she heard this. Although she slept on the street, she was not a beggar.
"Tsk..." Su Yu was too lazy to explain.
"Did you save me?" the girl asked cautiously.
"Who else could it be if not me? I worked so hard to carry you here. I was exhausted." Su Yu said.
Suddenly, the girl got up and knelt in front of Su Yu.
"My humble daughter Jiang Yuyan, thank you for saving my life." After saying that, she kowtowed to Su Yu several times.
"Uh..." Su Yu encountered such a situation for the first time and didn't know what to say.
After a while, she came back to her senses and helped the girl up.
"Hey, no, no, girl, don't kneel, get up quickly."
"Thank you, benefactor." The woman continued.
Su Yu scratched his head. He was not very good at dealing with women.
"May I ask your name, benefactor." The woman asked.
"Ah, my name is Su Yu." Su Yu said.
"Meet Mr. Su." The woman bowed.
"Mr.?" Su Yu didn't react.
"Yes, Mr. Su." The woman repeated.
"Hehe, it's a bit strange." Su Yu felt very strange when she was called Mr. for the first time, but when she thought that it was ancient times, the ancients probably called men like this.
"Ahem, may I ask where the girl is from and why she was captured." Su Yu asked.
"My benefactor, I escaped from Wanhua Tower. I was looking for my father. Later, I spent all my money and wanted to find something to do. Later, I was deceived to Wanhua Tower. They asked me, asked me... woo woo..." As she spoke, the girl started crying.
Su Yu knew what Wanhua Tower was as soon as she heard the name. At this time, Su Yu seemed to remember something and asked.
"Miss, did you just say your name was Jiang Yuyan?"
The woman didn't understand, but nodded and said.
"Yes, I am Jiang Yuyan."
"Damn, the two most arrogant people?" Su Yu jumped up and shouted.
