Chapter 2: Into the Book?
The strange memory in her mind told her that she fell into the river and almost drowned...
"Mother! Mother!"
A familiar voice came from the distance.
Wan Hongmei looked at the man and girl approaching on the river embankment. Are these her husband and daughter?
The expression on Wan Hongmei's face suddenly became panicked, and she hesitated on how to respond to these two people.
"Comrade Xiaowan!" Yun Huachun shouted affectionately with tears in his eyes.
Seeing her familiar frowning expression and the small movements on her hands, Yun Huachun was convinced of the identity of the person in front of him.
This is his wife!
Wan Hongmei burst into tears when she heard the familiar name.
"Lao Yun, my precious daughter!"
Wan Hongmei stepped forward and hugged her daughter.
My daughter has become smaller and lighter.
Wan Huachun, who had missed the bet, was a little helpless, so he followed and patted his daughter and wife on the back.
Being a family together is a blessing.
"Hongmei, are you injured anywhere? Why are you all soaked?" Yun Huachun asked concerned about his wife.
When he and his daughter woke up, they were both in a bad situation, and his wife seemed to be in trouble too.
"It's okay, I just fell into the river and I swam back. Lao Yun, what is this place? How did we get here?" Wan Hongmei said with tears in her chest, dizziness and tightness in her eyes.
"This..." Yun Huachun opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain the current situation to his wife.
"Mom, we have traveled through time!" Yuntao said nervously.
"What is this? Time travel? It's like in the TV series?" Wan Hongmei's cry gradually became quieter, and she gradually came back to her senses.
"Yes, we have traveled through time. Our whole family has traveled through time." Yuntao explained, wiping Wan Hongmei's tears with her sleeve.
"What should I do? Can I still wear it back?"
"Looking at the current situation, it's impossible."
After listening, Wan Hongmei's crying became louder and louder.
"I have worked hard for most of my life, and I am finally ready to retire and enjoy a comfortable life. Why do you think this happened to me?"
"If I had known it would be so hard to travel through time, I would spend most of my life reluctant to eat or use it!"
Yuntao's eyes lit up when she heard this.
"Mom, don't cry first, don't be sad..."
Judging from the hammer, their family may have brought something else with them during their time travel, but they haven't figured it out yet.
"Maybe the hard work you and my dad have done was not in vain!" Yuntao comforted her mother.
Thump thump thump thump thump…
The loud gong sounded again.
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to the village chief..."
"What's going on?" Wan Hongmei raised her eyes and asked.
"There is an emergency in our village. Let's go up and take a look first." Yun Huachun comforted his wife.
Beating gongs and drums to notify people from door to door is rare, it must be something big happening.
The family of three did not care to reminisce about the past, and helped each other up the river embankment with tears in their eyes.
The entrance to the village was full of people, including men, women, old and young. Everyone was busy looking for people they knew to talk to.
"What kind of trouble do you think the village chief is causing? Okay, call everyone back."
"What happened?"
"It should be a county matter, otherwise, the village chief wouldn't have called everyone here!"
Yuntao's family of three stood behind the crowd, also a little puzzled.
"Folks, please be quiet! To make a long story short!" Shi Fang said, leaning on a cane, and the dense grooves on his face were tinged with seriousness.
These words were like pebbles thrown into the sea among the boiling crowd, they were insignificant and did not make any waves.
The elders were still joking with Zhang's family and Li's family, and the children even started chasing each other in the crowd.
Shi Fang angrily took the gong from Guan Baoquan's hand and beat it to vent his anger.
The sharp and harsh sound of the gong continued for dozens of times before it stopped.
Everyone immediately felt more at ease.
"A disaster is imminent, and you are still gossiping here! The barbarians have already broken through the Yongxing Pass. Do you have to stand at the entrance of the village to keep you quiet?" Shi Fang roared while holding his breath, and his face became a little pale.
Yuntao was instantly dumbfounded after hearing this.
Yongxingguan, Shigang Village, Hu people...
Why does it sound so familiar?
Wait, isn't this the place name in the ancient revenge novel "Moon Diaolan" that her best friend sent her a few days ago?
This book is unfolded from the perspective of the male protagonist Su Huai. Su Huai was born in a family of famous generals, and he was a well-dressed and wealthy young man.
A sudden change occurred overnight. His family was framed by traitors and thrown into prison to be executed. Su Huai was rescued by his servants to the death and lived among the people for several years.
Coinciding with the country's crisis, Su Huai, who has grown into a handsome young man, hides his name and joins the army.
He has made many military exploits and has a place in the court.
Having gained power, Su Huai launched his own revenge plan, supported the new emperor's ascension, and uncovered the traitors who framed his family one by one.
In the end, he successfully redressed his family's injustice, resigned from office and returned home, with a happy ending.
Her best friend smiled and told her that the villain’s family in the book had exactly the same name as theirs.
Yuntao took her best friend's phone and looked at it for a few times.
The opening scene shows the villain in the book as a lackey of barbarians persecuting the protagonist. The villain has the same name as her father, and she really can't bring it in, especially after knowing that the villain's family is all dead as revealed by her best friend.
She even gave up the book directly...
"Dad, are we going to be in the book?" Yuntao asked, pulling her father's sleeve. The girl's face instantly turned pale as paper.
"what book?"
"I read a book at Liangliang's place before. It talked about Yongxing Pass, Hu people, and a family with the same name as ours..." Yuntao said with a sad face.
"Our whole family is a villain in the film. Dad, you also became a lackey of the enemy country. Our whole family was killed by the protagonist."
"Is there anything else written in the book? Where did this barbarian hit?" Yun Huachun asked, grabbing the key information.
"This..." Yuntao recalled carefully, "It seems that the attack was divided into east and west, and the attack was in the middle. The attack was in the middle at the beginning!"
"Okay, I understand, Tao'er, don't worry, think about it slowly, and we'll talk about it when we get back." Yun Huachun comforted his daughter, suppressing his physical discomfort.
The villagers in front were already furious, and some even started crying.
"Uncle Shi! These barbarians are all beasts that skin and eat people! What should we do?" A tall and thin man standing in front howled and cried.
Others also looked sad, and the crowd became noisy again.
Shi Fang blew his beard and glared, his eyes becoming more and more ugly.
"I've been shouting for a long time, what are you doing? Are you still gossiping? Go home quickly, pack your things, and run away!" Shi Fang said.
"Uncle Shi, what should we do with the food in the fields? The harvest will be harvested in more than a month!"
"Cousin, the eggs I farmed at home haven't been sold yet, so my family has no money to buy food..."
"Uncle Shi, my mother is sick and can't get off the ground or walk..."
Everyone gathered together and looked at the backbone of the crowd, Shi Fang, the head of Shigang Village, talking about his family's difficulties.
"When is it? Life or money is more important?" Shi Fang sighed.
