Chapter 1: Crossing the Late Han Dynasty
I don't know how long it took, He Bai finally woke up, but he had a splitting headache, as if he had drunk several bottles of high-grade liquor. He Bai turned his head with difficulty, to look at the surrounding situation, the first thing that caught his eye was a very dilapidated hut, the style was very ancient, the walls were full of some animal skins and dried meat, and there were no tables, chairs, or furniture. And the place where He Bai lay was also an animal skin on the wooden floor.
He Bai felt very strange, this scene was a bit like a hunter's hut in a certain country on a small island in the East China Sea. This startled He Bai quickly sat up, but this time made He Bai feel dizzy, followed by a huge pain, and He Bai passed out again.
In a daze, He Bai felt that someone was feeding a very delicious broth, probably because of hunger, He Bai swallowed it in a big gulp, while slowly opening his eyes. He Bai was surprised to find that the person who appeared in front of him was an uncle in his forties, dressed in ancient decorations, with long hair tied up casually on the top, and many of them were draped behind his shoulders. His body was broad and sturdy, and his messy beard gave him a bit of a majestic look.
The uncle smiled very kindly: "Are you awake?" ”
His words are completely Shanxi-style official dialect in northern China, and He Bai can barely understand it. He Bai propped up his body and leaned his back against the wall, so that he could feel a little more comfortable. "Big ...... Uncle, I'm ...... Where is it? ”
"This is in the Taihang Mountains of Bingzhou."
"And the state? Taihang Mountain? He Bai looked at his uncle with wide eyes in surprise, "I actually ran from Yunnan to Taihang Mountain in Shanxi?" And the uncle also said that Shanxi is a state, which is the saying of the ancients? ”
He Bai suddenly had a very surprising thought in his heart, and he really needed his uncle to confirm it, He Bai asked tentatively: "Uncle, who is the emperor now?" ”
The uncle scratched his head, looked up and thought for a while, and then said: "How do I know this, I only know that this is the first year of Zhongping." Who did you ask the emperor? ”
He Bai's head was dizzy again at this time, because the uncle's words were too scary, wouldn't it really be as he thought before, he had been made to travel back to ancient times, right? The first year of Zhongping? Isn't this the year of Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Rebellion? He Bai, who has always been fond of history, immediately thought of which year it was at this time, which was 184 AD.
Oh my God, from 2002 to 184, it's almost 2,000 years, so how old are you now? Is it 1,836 years old, or exactly 1,800 years old? It shouldn't be more than 1,800 years old, right?
After He Bai's eagerness to inquire again, He Bai finally determined what was going on. That huge black hole can turn back time and bring itself to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It is possible that the platoon commander and other comrades-in-arms also crossed over at the same time, but he was separated from the others. Because when the uncle rescued himself, there was no one else nearby, just He Bai, hanging naked from a big tree.
As for the uncle's rhetorical question about his origin, He Bai used being blown by the dragon whirlwind as an excuse. As for the identity, he is a monk who has just returned to the world.
At this time, He Bai was a little sad to think of his family in the future, there was only one son in the family, if he disappeared from such news, he couldn't see anyone in life, and he couldn't see his body in death, how sad it would be.
But not long after, He Bai rejoiced again, because after He Bai watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he often hated that he was born at the wrong time and could not compete with the heroes of the Three Kingdoms era on the battlefield. At this time, since I am fortunate to travel to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, isn't it exactly what I want?
What to do next, well, first of all, to practice a good skill, and then take refuge in a famous master, temporarily work for him, and expand his own power. When the world is in turmoil, depending on the situation, it is to continue to crisscross the battlefield and become a generation of famous generals, and the name will be passed down through the ages. Or become a generation of hegemons and dominate the world.
With his mind in mind, He Bai immediately asked his uncle to learn art, because looking at the uncle's appearance, he was definitely not an ordinary person, he must be a master who lived in seclusion in the mountains, and was not an ordinary hunter.
I didn't want the uncle to laugh, and said: "Uncle's ancestor has someone who has been a military general, but by the uncle's generation, he is already in the middle of the family." Uncle doesn't know much about the martial arts of battlefield warfare. It's just to make a living, and he has made some achievements in archery skills. If the little brother wants to practice martial arts, the uncle can't do anything. ”
He Bai couldn't help but be a little discouraged when he heard this, but as a general, archery is also a must-learn skill, and he must learn it. So He Bai turned to his uncle to ask him for advice on shooting and hunting. The uncle was impatient with He Bai, and finally had to agree.
Uncle is indeed a good hunter, following him He Bai learned many good things that he could not learn in later generations, at least in terms of sinking into the Yin people, He Bai's achievements are the highest. And through some advanced knowledge of later generations to learn archery, the result is twice the result with half the effort, archery is a thousand miles a day. In just two months, he was able to master most of the essence of archery, and as long as he practiced from time to time in the future, he would definitely become a marksman.
What made He Bai even happier was that in the uncle's messy wooden house, he found the relics of the ancestors that the uncle said, and found two tattered bamboo slips from them. It records some ancient combat experiences, and the thirty-three style double iron whip whip method. Anyway, the uncle took it as a tatte, so He Bai unceremoniously took these "martial arts cheats" and practiced on his own.
Although He Bai didn't know the power of this set of iron whip whip methods, He Bai believed that through his own modern people, using the martial arts knowledge of later generations and the improvement of the source of mechanics, he would definitely become a set of infinitely powerful martial arts.
After half a year of hard study, He Bai consciously has made a lot of achievements in martial arts, archery, and the art of war, even in hunting and survival in the wild. The body has also become extremely strong and flexible.
In the past six months, He Bai has established a deep relationship with his uncle, who has no son and is very doting on He Bai. Let He Bai in this time and space, he also enjoy the family affection of later generations.
But the son who grows up will eventually stay away from his parents, and when the young eagle grows up, he will eventually fight the sky. On this day, He Bai finally decided to say goodbye to his uncle and go down the mountain to pursue his ambition.
However, before leaving, He Bai needed to hunt and kill a tiger alone in order to collect the travel expenses. Listening to what the uncle said, a good tiger skin can be sold for dozens of catties of silver at this time, which is enough for He Bai's expenses for a whole year.
When He Bai first heard about dozens of catties of silver, not dozens of taels of silver, he thought he had heard it wrong. Later, I learned that the alchemy at this time was not up to par, and without good technology, it could not be refined in the later generations of snowflake silver, and thousands of pure gold, which had a lot of impurities. Therefore, all the gold and silver at this time were calculated by the pound.
A pound of silver is worth about 1,500 baht, and a pound of gold is worth about 10,000 to 15,500 baht. A five-baht coin is equal to two yuan in later generations, and a complete tiger skin is worth 100,000 yuan. Damn, that's too cheap. However, scarcity is expensive, who said that there are more tigers at this time, and there are fewer tigers in later generations.
Taihang Mountain is thousands of miles longitudinal, and there are many tigers in it. He Bai decided to act alone, and by the way, he also tried his true ability after completing his martial arts.
He Bai carried a hunting bow, arrows, and some items and dry food that were trapped, and it took half a month to finally track down the traces of a lone tigress. It is estimated to weigh more than 400 pounds, and it is an adult tiger. After He Bai found the tiger's den, he set up a trapping net at the entrance of the cave, and then climbed a thick tree and waited patiently.
He Bai sat on the trunk of a tree, eating dry food while fantasizing about the future. According to the skin dealer who went into the mountains to collect hides before the winter every year, he came to this world in June of 184 A.D. It is now March 185, and the famous Yellow Turban Rebellion in history has come to an early end. This doomed uprising was unable to follow the example of Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian and others, and made great contributions in the crusade against the Yellow Turbans.
It's a pity, the Yellow Turban thief is easy to break, and he can not only learn some actual combat experience in ancient wars in the expedition, but also make some military exploits to seek an official position. Now there is nothing to do, so we can only find a master first. It's just that it's in line with the ideal of the future world, which is really too ......
Liu Bei is benevolent, but he has no foundation in the first half of his life, even if he will not drift for half his life and endure hardships until he is old, he is very tired, and Liu Bei still has the possibility of being a loser. Cao Cao is too brutal, and his suspicion is too serious, and he is always trembling and tired under his hands. The three fathers and sons of the Sun family, Sun Jian is rash, Sun Ce is irritable and does not listen to people, Sun Quan does not want to forge ahead, and lacks courage to do things. Apart from these three, not to mention the others. A bunch of garbage, kill them in minutes.
It seems that the road ahead is to take one step and count it as one step. He Bai remembered that Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty Liu Xiu once said: "The official should be the ruling Jinwu, and the wife should be Yin Lihua." "What about yourself? If you are not the overlord, you will be an official as a hussar general, and your wife will be a beautiful sable.
No, since I have come to ancient times, not to mention the three thousand beauties in the harem, but at least a hundred people will be killed. Taking only one wife, it seems, probably, maybe it's too unfulfilling.
Just as He Bai was gradually intoxicated with his daydream, a sudden tiger roar woke He Bai up from his sweet dream. He Bai was in a serious mood, took his bow and drew an arrow to prepare to launch, it was best to pass through the tiger's eyes with an arrow, otherwise the tiger skin would be worthless.
It's just that He Bai was surprised to find that the sound of the tiger's roar was very frightened, as if he had encountered some natural enemy. He Bai hurriedly continued to climb high, looking around, only to see that not far from the left direction, a fierce tiger ran out of the mountain forest, as if fleeing for its life.
He Bai turned his gaze to the rear, wanting to see what monster was afraid of even the tiger of the king of the mountain. But he only heard the sound of the branches being broken continuously, and suddenly, a stout man with a height of one meter nine leaped out of the forest. Dressed in a tiger fur coat, with no extra weapons in his bare hands, he chased straight towards the tiger. Its momentum is unstoppable.
