Ahem~

Vomit~

The violent cough accompanied by the feeling of vomiting caused the young man on the bed to turn to the side sharply, curled up in a ball, his forehead bruised, and his pale skin flushed sickly.

The brain seems to have been stirred into a pulp by a scorching iron hammer, and even basic rational thinking has become a luxury.

When I opened my eyes, the surrounding scene became a blurred line, and only a faint outline could be seen.

Lu Jiu struggled to get up, his hands unconsciously groping around.

"Water...... Water ......"

The voice in his throat was harsh and hoarse, like a handful of hot sand, scorching flesh and blood, forcing Lu Jiu to keep his eyes open and look for everything around him that seemed to drink.

Soon he found a small arm-length bamboo tube at the head of the bed, hurriedly reached out and grabbed it, opened his mouth to tear off the wooden cork on the top.

The rich bloody breath came to his face, Lu Jiu was stunned for a moment, and then as if he had been summoned by some kind of summons, he did not hesitate to pour the thick liquid in the bamboo tube into his throat, which was already hungry and unbearable, and as his throat continued to swallow, his tired body was like a spring rain in a long-drought wasteland, and every cell was crying out with pleasure.

Poof!

The beating sound of the heart sounded in his ears, and in a trance, Lu Jiu saw a strange dark golden heart appear in front of him.

Most of the heart was shrouded in shadows, blurred, only the central part was clearly visible, and several purple crystals were interlocked inside, and the outer edge was even more faintly transparent with a gear structure...... It's not so much a heart, it's a mechanical craft that resembles a heart, ingenious!

The illusion didn't linger in my mind for long, and it dissipated after a few seconds.

At the same time, as the liquid in the bamboo tube continued to decrease, Lu Jiu's vision gradually became clearer.

At the moment of the return of reason, Lu Jiu sat on the edge of the bed, looking blankly at the bamboo tube with blood stains on the edge of his hand, and the smell of blood in the air had not yet dissipated.

But the bigger question is......

What is this?

The clothes on his body are very strange, the upper body is a dark brown linen short coat, and the lower body is a pair of straight-leg trousers similar to slacks, but the fabric is quite smooth to the touch, but no matter how you look at it, it looks a bit like the costumes of the ancients seen in past film and television dramas.

'The clothes I bought in Chengdongfang City a month ago, fifty yuan, bargains. ’

Lu Jiu was puzzled, but information about this dress suddenly appeared in his mind, which seemed to be a memory.

Fang City?Fifty Wen?

Lu Jiu straightened up, turned his gaze a little hesitantly, and looked around.

This is a room of less than 20 square meters, centered on the bed where Lu Jiu is now sitting, with a glass window half-open next to it, and the orange sunset afterglow is reflected from outside.

On the east side of the wall stands about a cabinet about one person high, the upper part is a wardrobe, the door of the cabinet is pasted with two loose corners of the "Fu", and there are three rows of drawers at the bottom, a total of three columns.

Next to the cabinet was a desk, neatly stacked with several books and an iron candlestick with a half-burned candle.

Seeing this, Lu Jiu suddenly looked in the direction of the door, he "remembered" that there was a lamp on the left wall of the wooden door, which looked like a lantern, but it was made of glass, and it was only the size of a fist, and at the bottom was a metal bench, connected to two pipes embedded in the wall, leading straight to the door.

'The gas lamp, the pipe that my father installed when he was alive, was very useful. ’

Another moment when the memory surfaced, Lu Jiu only felt a sharp pain like his brain being torn, and then a large number of broken memory fragments suddenly appeared in his mind with a sense of dizziness!

Lu Jiu, a native of Qingding City, Zhiyuan Prefecture, Anqing Province, Shuoming Dynasty, is 20 years old, has only attended public school, and has not been admitted to a national institution of higher learning......

His father was a senior worker in the Xu Craftsman Factory, and unfortunately died in an accident five years ago when he participated in the construction of the dragon boat, and his mother was an ordinary female worker, who was raised by a work-related injury pension......

It is now the twenty-third year of Shenglong, and as the Shuoming Dynasty has found more and more treasures called "science and technology" in the depths of the boundless sea, unprecedented changes of the times are unfolding on this land......

"Shhh

A sudden throbbing pain in his heart made the memory come to an abrupt end, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, Lu Jiu gasped heavily, and his palm subconsciously covered his heart.

The moment of contact, Lu Jiu's eyes widened suddenly, and after being stunned for a few seconds, he began to keep trying to press his heart.

However, the silence of his heart made him fall into great fear.

He didn't feel his heartbeat!

Knock knock~

The knock on the door sounded suddenly, waking up Lu Jiu, who was in a daze in the house, and turned his head to stare at the door.

At this moment, he was surprisingly calm.

The complicated thoughts were suppressed by two muffled sounds outside the door, and he grabbed the bamboo tube and lowered his steps and got up and walked to the cabinet next to him.

Don't let anyone else find out what they are like now!

"Who?"

Put the bamboo tube into the wardrobe and close the cabinet door, Lu Jiu asked.

"Xiao Jiu, it's me. ”

A gentle voice came from outside the door, followed by a childish child's voice,

"Brother Xiaojiu, open the door quickly, I brought you something delicious!"

'The neighbors on the other side, Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao are friends of their parents, and they usually take care of themselves, as well as their daughter, Zhao Wanhua. ’

The image of a family of three came to mind, and Lu Jiu walked to the door almost instinctively, and answered: "I'll open the door." ”

Raise your hand and wipe your mouth with the hem of your sleeve to make sure there is no blood left, while your tongue sweeps back and forth in your mouth, swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva to ensure that you don't get stuck when you speak.

When you get to the door, you stop again and look around the room to make sure you don't see anything strange.

Reaching out and rubbing two cheeks to make it look a little bloody, the door opened.

"Uncle Zhao, Aunt Zhao is good, what delicious food did Xiao Wanhua bring to her brother?"

According to the image in his memory, Lu Jiu first said hello to the couple outside the door with a smile, and then squatted down and looked at the little girl who was holding a small cloth wrapped in her arms, with two black balls on her head and some baby fat on her head.

"Wow~It's delicious beef jerky~"

Xiao Wanhua lifted the cloth wrapped in a faint smell of meat as if offering a treasure, and stuffed it directly into Lu Jiu's arms.

"Uncle, aunt, it's usually enough to be taken care of by you, but I can't ask for this. ”

The cloth wrap was handed back to the girl, and although the times had changed, beef jerky was still something that they were only entitled to during the New Year's holidays.

"Take it, we've just eaten it, and it's all packed up. ”

Behind the girl and the woman, a middle-aged man with an honest face persuaded him, and Lu Jiu found that he was wearing a thin white mourning dress and a white cloth hat, which should have just participated in the white affair.

"What are you...... I wonder which elder passed away?"

"It's not an elder, it's a good friend in Seongnam, and somehow he suddenly developed hysteria and ...... his family"

Thinking of the situation over there, Uncle Zhao's expression was a little ugly, and he subconsciously wanted to mention it.

"Lao Zhao, don't say this in front of Xiao Jiu!"

Glaring at her husband, the woman scolded softly, and the former immediately scratched his head as if he realized something.

"Xiao Jiu, you can keep this beef jerky, seeing that your face is so bad, you are tired of going out, just make up for it." ”

In the end, it is the woman's delicate mind that changes the topic without a trace.

Lu Jiu wanted to continue to excuse himself, but after thinking about it, if something suddenly went wrong in his current state, it would not end well.

So he took the beef jerky in his hand and thanked the two elders again.

Close the door again, pull out the beef jerky in the cloth wrap and stuff it into your mouth, the meat is dry and hard.

In his previous life, Lu Jiu was afraid that he would have to throw two or three pieces aside to accumulate dust, but now he eats it with relish.

Receiving the energy supplement of serious food, coupled with the visit of Uncle Zhao's family, Lu Jiu's chaotic and tense thinking gradually relaxed.

Realizing this, Lu Jiu originally wanted to take this opportunity to try to recall what happened recently and figure out what had happened to him.

It's just that he really overestimated his ability to resist pressure, and the successive mental shocks had already exhausted him.

This relaxation made the whole person immediately drowsy.

Not to mention keeping thinking, all that's left is to lie on the bed...... "Lying corpses" in the true sense of the word.

It was pointless to hold on, so Lu Jiu chose to follow his body's wishes, and after locking the door, he didn't even take off his clothes and lay down on the bed.

The back of his head was touched by the pillow, and his consciousness began to blur, and after a while, the snoring began to rise.

Pong~

The crisp sound of the porcelain when it landed and the faint screams mixed in it woke up Lu Jiu in his sleep, and he glanced at the clock on the wall blankly.

He had slept for less than five hours.

The noise outside continued, and Lu Jiu got up from the bed and leaned against the head of the bed, distinguishing the source of the sound.

At the same time, to his surprise, regardless of his mental state, his body was now not only free from soreness and exhaustion, but even had a sense of vigor and strength!

"Help! Save ......"

The cry for help outside the door again convinced Lu Jiu that what he had just heard was not a hallucination, and he immediately got up to check the situation.

Ga ~ Ga ~ At this moment, two muffled crow crows suddenly sounded outside the window that had been closed before going to bed.

Somehow, hearing this cry, Lu Jiu only felt inexplicably bored, wrinkled his brows, and clenched his fists involuntarily with both hands.

It took a few deep breaths to ease the irritability.

It's just two crows, how can this be?

Lu Jiu, who came back to his senses, was a little surprised by his emotional loss of control just now...... Maybe it's a change in the past, so you make yourself a little sensitive?

Bang bang bang!

The door shook, and the sound of slamming the door followed, and Lu Jiu grabbed the low stool beside him.

"Xiao Jiu! Xiao Jiu! Open the door quickly, your Uncle Zhao is also hysterical!"

Aunt Zhao's panicked voice mixed with Xiao Wanhua's crying came into the room from outside the door.

Lu Jiu, who had just gotten out of bed, was shocked, and didn't have time to think about why Aunt Zhao wanted to say "also", and rushed to the door at the same time as another burst of hurried footsteps!
