Is it so difficult to start Chapter 1? Gu Chan worked overtime for a whole day and night. Not long after she fell asleep, she felt a sharp pain in her back, as if someone had kicked her. "Well……" Then, an unpleasant duck voice came, "Don't play dead, hurry up and get on with your journey. I'm telling you, if you miss the time, I'll pull out your tendons and peel off your skin." Gu Chan didn't care about the pain and opened her eyes quickly, then she was stunned! But I saw that this place was a wilderness. The wind howled violently, blowing up dark yellow dust mixed with sand and gravel, and hitting people in the face. The sky was gray and oppressive, making it hard to breathe. There was only one group of people in the wilderness, dressed strangely. Upon closer inspection... they seemed to be ancient officials and exiled prisoners. The prisoners were unkempt and wore dirty prison uniforms. At this time, amid the shouting and insults of the yamen runners, they dragged their weak bodies and heavy shackles and struggled to get up from the ground. Those who crawled slowly were whipped or kicked by the officers. For example, she had just been kicked. No!
How is this going? Wasn't she sleeping in her bed in her bachelor apartment after work? How did she end up here in the blink of an eye? Was she dreaming? Before she could figure it out, someone kicked her hard in the back again, "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what I said?" Gu Chan grimaced in pain. The intense pain told her that she was not dreaming and was most likely traveling through time. The problem is, she didn’t die, and she didn’t read any novels, so how could she have traveled through time? Adhering to the principle that a wise man never suffers a loss in front of him, she endured the pain in her back and got up from the ground. But she found that this body was weaker than she thought. As soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy, and with the chains tied to his feet, he couldn't even take a step forward. At this time, two birds of unknown species flew overhead and chirped a few times as they passed by the crowd. The magic happened again. Gu Chan could vaguely hear the conversation between the two birds. [Jiji, these two-legged monsters are so shameless, they don’t even go back to their nests to mate, but mate on the ground. ] [Chirp chirp chirp, not only that~ Didn't you see that the female biped didn't want to mate? Several male bipeds forced the female biped, tsk tsk~ Bipeds are rude and barbaric, not good things. ] [That’s right, the two-legged monsters often rob our nests. It’s annoying! I wish all the two-legged monsters would die! ] "..."Gu Chan looked up at the two birds flying farther and farther away and was completely stunned! She reluctantly accepted time travel, but what the hell was going on with birds speaking human language? Could it be that she didn't travel through time, but went to the underworld after death? But I've never heard of talking birds in the underworld before. Seeing the woman was dragging her feet, the bailiff kicked her again, "Are you looking for death?" Gu Chan was startled and hurriedly dragged her weak body to avoid it. After returning to the crowd, a strong foul smell rushed into her nose and went straight to the top of her head. She couldn't help but retching. Next to her was a middle-aged woman with tangled hair and tattered clothes. Seeing Gu Chan retching, the woman cursed, "Why are you retching? You damned slave, what qualifications do you have to despise your masters? You bastard!" Gu Chan was scolded harshly, but thinking that she was in the wrong, she didn't say anything. Then, she silently looked at the people around her and found that there were more than fifty people exiled. Except for a few old men and boys, the rest were women of different ages.
In her understanding, there are two types of exile teams. One is that prisoners from different sources are grouped together and exiled. The other is to exile the entire family of the criminal. If it was the former, there should be men and women, old and young in the team. But this team has no young and middle-aged men, the female prisoners help each other, and some of them look similar, so it looks like the latter. The woman just called her a dog slave, could it be that the original owner was exiled as a slave of a criminal? Gu Chan sighed softly, her head heavy and weak body. What happened? Why did she travel through time? Even if she traveled through time, would it be so difficult at the beginning? Even if it was difficult, why did she hear birds talking? Or...her hearing of the birds talking was an illusion. After all, the original owner was dead, so it was not surprising to have some hallucinations. Just when Gu Chan was feeling depressed, she saw several yamen runners dragging a ragged female prisoner towards the team not far away. Among them was a yamen runner with a lewd expression. He was tying his belt as he walked, with an evil smile on his face that seemed to show he was still unsatisfied. Looking at the female prisoner again, her hair was disheveled and her eyes were dull. "Rou'er, my Rou'er!" There was a cry from beside me. Gu Chan turned her head and saw that the person crying was none other than the middle-aged woman who had just scolded her. The middle-aged woman carried the shackles and cried bitterly. Gu Chan knew with just a little thought that the woman named "Rou'er" was violated by an evil yamen runner who took advantage of his position. This kind of situation was very common in ancient China. Suddenly, she remembered what the bird had said - that bipeds don't mate in their nests, that bipeds are barbaric and force mating. Could it be... Could it be that the two birds refer to the yamen runner and Rou'er? So what she heard from the birds wasn't an illusion? Rou'er stumbled toward the team. The crying middle-aged woman kicked Gu Chan on the leg, "Get out of here, you blind slave!" Gu Chan was also angry. She turned around and cursed, "Auntie, do you want to understand this? Do you think you are still a noble lady? We are all prisoners, who is nobler than who? This time, I will not fight back because of your age. Next time you dare to kick me, I will definitely kick you back!" In an instant, the surroundings became quiet. Everyone looked at Gu Chan as if she were a monster. Gu Chan snorted coldly, "What are you looking at? You'd better not mess with me, otherwise my aunt and you will be together forever." As soon as Gu Chan finished speaking, the yamen runner who had just kicked her shouted, "That's enough, shut up! Let's get going. If anyone talks too much and delays the trip, you'll be in trouble!" After being yelled at by the bailiff, everyone hurriedly looked away and prepared to continue on their journey, dragging their heavy shackles. Even though Gu Chan was scolding, she still quietly moved to the side to make room for "Rou'er". She had her reasons for scolding - even if the original owner was a house slave and had the responsibility and obligation to be ordered around by these people, she was not a house slave, was she? Being bullied by the yamen runners was bad enough, she didn't have the mentality of a slave. If she found another master, they would die together at worst. Of course, you can't die yet. She had to think of a way to go back home. Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly, a few faint voices were heard. [Are these two-legged beasts heading for the cliff ahead? ] Gu Chan was stunned, and hurriedly followed the direction of the voice. After struggling through the heavy shackles hanging around her neck, she discovered that the people speaking were actually... a few ants.
No! Didn't we learn in biology class that ants exchange information through pheromones and don't have much emotion? How come ants in this world can still chat? The other ant answered, "I don't know. Will I die if I fall down?" [No, there is a hidden cave under the cliff. If you go into the cave and look from above, you won’t be able to see anything and you will think you have fallen down. I scared my second brother like this before and he cried loudly.] 【you are so bad! 】 "..."Gu Chan. (End of this chapter)
