Chapter 2 Brutal Reality
Li Rupei had already calmed down.
Before traveling through time, he was a civil servant and worked in a small county town. He was middle-aged and neither up nor down nor good nor bad. He lived a peaceful life. Because he was in the officialdom and experienced many things, he gradually formed a mentality of being at ease with the situation.
This time I happened to meet the Dragon Boat Festival holiday. I wanted to go out for some breath, but my daughter was in high school and the school didn’t have a holiday, so she had to drive out to take a ride in the countryside near the county town. It was also a way to relax and breathe the fresh air. But unexpectedly, when I set off in the morning, the sky was clear, and by noon, there was lightning and thunder and heavy rain.
Because the rain was too heavy, the wiper didn't have time to sweep away the rainwater on the glass, Li Rupei had to park the car on the side of the road. When the rain was getting lighter, what he didn't notice was that there was a big tree on the side of the road.
A lightning strikes a big tree, and the city gate catches fire, causing fish to catch fish in the pond. The car, which is not far away, is hit by the lightning coming from the big tree. Li Rupei, who is smoking in the car, loses consciousness without any preparation.
After waking up, it is the current situation.
The power of lightning was so huge that Li Rupei did not expect, and all of Li Rupei's thoughts were infused into his mind.
Li Rupei had to accept this reality. From this moment on, he was Li Rupei, the son of King Li Qi of Wei, with the courtesy name Nakkun.
The sound of footsteps sounded again outside the house. Li Rupei closed his eyes and pretended to continue to sleep.
The first person to enter the room was Li Qi of the King of Wei, and then Gongsun. Behind the two, a thin-faced doctor followed in, with a hint of herbs and Chinese medicine on his body.
The doctor was not polite and sat down on the edge of the bed and began to take the pulse for Li Rupei.
About a quarter of an hour later, Li Qiyi looked at Li Rupei carefully and spoke with a little anxiety.
"Is there any problem?"
"The little husband's breathing is stable and his meridian is normal. There is nothing serious. Judging from the meridian, he is a little weak. He can keep his body well and he can keep it safe. It is expected that the little husband may experience a brief dizziness and become confused when he is anxious. This situation has been encountered before. Most of them are caused by excessive fright, so he can rest and recuperate without any hindrance."
"Thank you, I feel relieved. Please keep your affairs today confidential."
"If you understand the rules, you must be as tight as a bottle."
After the doctor left, Li Rupei opened his eyes.
"Aye, my mother, there's nothing wrong with me."
Before Li Rupei's words were finished, Li Qi and Gongsun turned around at the same time and looked at Li Rupei carefully. Their gazes revealed a strong sense of care and an indescribable tension. Only those closest relatives would show this concern and tension.
Soon, Li Qi came over, Gongsun sat on the edge of the bed, took Li Rupei's hand, looked carefully, and said nothing.
"Nakhon, it's good that there is nothing to do. I've always been worried about my father and your mother. To be honest, what happened to you in the woods."
Li Rupei, who struggled to prepare to answer, was grabbed by Gongsun.
"Boy, just say it directly. You are weak and don't move."
"My father, mother, the child really can't remember clearly. Even the matter of how to enter the woods was forgotten."
"Forget it if you can't remember, have a good rest. After a while, ask the kitchen to carefully cook a few dishes and deliver them to you. You must eat something so that your body can recover quickly."
This overwhelming concern made Li Rupei feel warm, but it was unlikely that he would have any special expression after a sudden time travel. More than 40 years of experience allowed him to control his emotions well and face everything in front of him calmly.
Gongsun's face improved a lot. Although his eyes were still red and swollen, his face had long been filled with smiles.
"Nakhon, you must listen to your father's words and take a good rest and don't think about anything..."
Before Gongsun's words could be finished, Li Qi immediately spoke.
"Madam, it's already dark. Nakkun suddenly encountered so many things. Let him rest well. Let's see him tomorrow. Nakkun, you have a good rest."
When Li Qi turned around, his face immediately changed, and it was covered with clouds. This detail was seen by Li Rupei.
Almost in the shortest time, Li Rupei completed the transformation of his time-travel role. Although he was deeply concerned about the family and family in his heart, he knew very well that the self, a thousand years later, had disappeared.
Everyone knows that there are two famous troubled times in history. One is the Three Kingdoms, Two Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties after the Han Dynasty. The famous Five Barbarians invaded China appeared in that era, and the other is the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms at the end of the Tang Dynasty. Li Rupei was really lucky and met one of them.
This is the reality, Li Rupei must accept it.
The food was brought in by the maid.
The maid was very nervous, lowered her head and did not dare to speak, and stood aside and served her carefully.
Li Rupei wanted to speak, but after looking at the frightened maid, he still didn't say anything. A little girl must be frightened and uneasy after experiencing so many things.
The food is very fragrant, it is a natural fragrance, a bowl of duck blood soup, a plate of dried fish sashimi, a plate of golden chicken, and a plate of fried bean sprouts.
Li Rupei, who was extremely hungry, did not expect so much. He started to eat in big mouthfuls, whether it was the palace or the people, whether it was a rule to eat or not. However, Li Rupei never expected that such dishes would not be able to be eaten even during the Chinese New Year. If you can eat salt rice on weekdays, it would be a delicious dish.
After eating, Li Rupei was ready to rest. In less than a day, he encountered such a major event and must have been tired. No matter what, his parents were in good health, and he could fully feel the warmth of the family and the care of his relatives. All this was enough. With this feeling of self-comfort and satisfaction, Li Rupei slept very comfortably and slept very heavily.
As night falls completely, the small mountain village becomes more peaceful. This place belongs to the West Road of Shannan, nearly a thousand miles from the capital Xiangyang, and belongs to a village in Wuling County under Bazhou. The government has always called this Huolong Village. The people here live a life of working from sunrise to rest at sunset. They are very poor, and it is a luxury to want to have enough food.
The only difference is that there is a high-ranking official here, Liu Jurong, the governor of Xiangyang, who is respected as Liu Envoy by the villagers.
Liu Jurong was the pride of the whole village. He participated in the imperial examinations of the court and was a high school Jinshi. As he entered the court, Liu Jurong's family basically left the village and left only his ancestral home.
When Li Qi and his family came to Huolong Village, they moved directly into Liu Jurong's ancestral home.
There were not many people in the village, and the news that someone lived in Liu Jun's ancestral home spread quickly. This must be a big deal, but the simple villagers just discussed it privately and continued to live their own lives. As for what Li Qi did, why did he come to this wilderness village, no one went to inquire specifically.
Two days ago, the Li family's wife and Xiao Langjun went for a walk in the small forest on the back mountain of the village. Xiao Langjun entered the woods alone and had not come out for a long time. The young lady was a little panicked and went into the small forest with some people in the village to search. She found Xiao Langjun under a rock. Xiao Langjun was sleeping under the rock, her whole body was cold and she couldn't wake up no matter how much she shouted. The young lady didn't know where the strength came from and didn't want the help of others. She panicked and carried Xiao Langjun home.
Everyone in the village believed that the Li family's young man might have been a ghost, and everyone was very taboo and dared not talk much, afraid of causing disaster to their own family.
