Chapter 1: Unlucky Travel
"Master, please, please leave us some food! It doesn't matter if we adults don't eat, but at least leave some food for my son, he just turned eight years old..."

"Hehe, if it weren't for me, the general, fighting on the front lines, you wouldn't be able to live such a comfortable life with your wife and son. I'm just arguing with you about your excuse to eat, so what's the big deal!"

In a farmyard, a thin man in his twenties, wearing somewhat torn standard leather armor, holding a standard rifle in one hand and a burlap bag in the other, and holding an old hen fluttering in his arms, was whistling and walking out of the yard in a swagger.

A man who was about thirty years old and looked weather-beaten followed the soldier and kept begging. In the house behind him, a peasant woman was crying as she hugged a handsome boy tightly in her arms.

"My poor son, yesterday was supposed to be your eighth birthday, but you never expected to encounter such a disaster today. It's because your parents are useless and couldn't protect you..."

The peasant woman's face was full of pity. She stroked the boy's hair and tears flowed down her face.

The boy was not small in stature, about five feet tall, but he was obviously thin due to malnutrition, and his complexion did not look very healthy. However, faced with such a change in his family, this seemingly ordinary boy did not cry, but instead looked very troubled.

"What's going on? How did I get to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty? Did I travel through time?"

I was a graduate student in the history department of a prestigious university. I had spent a lot of time writing my graduation thesis, so one evening I went out shopping to relax.

In the end, he failed to relax, but was hit by a car while trying to save a baby in a stroller, and died on the spot!
It was not until last night that he regained consciousness. The memories of both lives were mixed together, causing him to have a splitting headache the entire night. It was difficult for him to face the fact that he had traveled through time.

"Why are other people who travel through time and space to become emperors, generals, or at least second-generation rich people or officials, but I am in a remote mountain village where even food and clothing are a problem! Isn't this person who traveled through time and space really too unlucky?"

The boy watched all this happening before his eyes and wailed in his heart.

However, in fact, if you really think about it, his current identity is not really that ordinary.

It is now the first year of Xiping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which is 172 AD. My name is Liu He now, and my family background is exactly the same as this name, which can be described as prominent and extraordinary.

According to the family tree, he is a descendant of Liu Jing, the eighth son of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Prince of Guangling. This Prince of Guangling was born to Emperor Guangwu and Empress Yin Lihua, and is absolutely of the purest royal bloodline.

In terms of seniority, he and the current Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, are of the same generation.

But the bad luck was that the King of Guangling Si was executed for rebelling. Although his son inherited the title, it is conceivable that his descendants would not have a good life.

In the time of his great-grandfather, he had already lost his title, but still had some property. In order to avoid suppression by the powerful in the city, his family moved to the current Langdiao County, Bingzhou. By the time it came to his father Liu Qian's generation, the family had completely fallen into poverty and became an ordinary farmer.

"Oh, I thought I could finally realize my dream when I was studying history, to fight with many heroes for supremacy, to defend my country, and to live up to the heroic spirit of a man! But who could have thought that I would encounter something like this! Could it be that after traveling through time and effort, I will die so soon?"

Liu He looked at the messy yard, and it was as if ten thousand alpacas were galloping through his heart.

This guy in the yard who looks like a deserter suddenly ran out from the hill behind his house early this morning, entered his yard and took everything he saw without saying a word, just like a soldier!

"It's okay, it's okay. Those who travel through time will have some golden fingers or special skills. It must be like this! Come on, show up quickly. Superpowers, or let me summon a powerful general?"

Liu He kept comforting himself in his heart.

But soon, this only bit of comfort was broken, because no matter how eagerly I shouted in my heart, after half a day, there was still no response.

"No way! He's really just an ordinary person? This is really setting me up for death! I finally got back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but I haven't had the chance to realize my ambitions yet!"

Liu He kept wailing in his heart, so much so that his body began to tremble slightly.

His mother, Mrs. Xu, felt her son's trembling and thought he was scared, so she hugged Liu He tighter. "Don't be afraid, He'er. I'm here. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."

She patted Liu He's back gently, trying to calm him down, but Liu He could feel that her body was shaking even more violently than his.

Feeling Xu's concern and love, Liu He suddenly felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down a little, but when he looked up, he saw his father in this life outside the gate, grabbing the soldier's thigh and begging for food in order to get some rations for his only son.

The soldier not only did not show any sympathy, but raised his hand and slapped him several times.

"Damn it, old man, you are shameless! I, the general, don't have that much patience!"

Listening to the "pa pa" sounds of slaps, even though his soul came from the afterlife, this body was indeed born to the couple in front of him. Seeing his current biological father being beaten like this, Liu He couldn't help but feel angry.

When Xu saw Liu Qian being humiliated like this, she quickly left Liu He in the house, ran out herself, and knelt down at the gate of the courtyard to beg for mercy.

"General, please spare my life, please stop hitting me..."

The soldier turned his head and saw Xu, but suddenly a lustful look appeared on his face.

"Oh, there's actually a woman here. I was so busy getting food that I didn't notice her. Hehe. I haven't had meat for several months, so today is a lucky day for me!"

After saying that, he put down everything in his hands, kicked Liu Qian away, and rushed towards Xu!
Although Xu was already a mother, she was only twenty-three or twenty-four years old. Even though her life was hard and she lacked maintenance, in the eyes of these ferocious officers and soldiers, how could she care so much?

"Ah...General...General, please spare my life...ah..."

Xu struggled hard, and Liu Qian came over and hugged the soldier's legs tightly, hoping to pull him away.

Liu He, who was standing by, was already filled with rage when he saw this scene!

"I've long known that the officialdom was dark and military discipline was corrupt in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, but I never thought these soldiers were really worse than beasts!"

Liu He's eyes were bloodshot. He was also a passionate young man in his twenties in his previous life. How could he endure this situation?
"do my best!"

He threw away the confusion and fear in his heart, his eyes suddenly became extremely determined, he clenched his fists, and ran out of the house.

At this time, the military officer was already annoyed by Liu Qian, Liu He's father. Xu was not cooperating and Liu Qian was also interfering. How could he do such a good thing?

"Damn it, you don't know what's good for you!"

He shook off Xu, raised one foot, and kicked Liu Qian fiercely!

Liu Qian was kicked in the shoulder and immediately let out a scream. He let go of the soldier with both hands and fell backwards.

"go to hell!"

The soldier was so angry that he no longer cared about anything else. He picked up the spear from the ground and was about to stab Liu Qian!
When Xu saw this scene, she couldn't even scream and fainted immediately!
