The late autumn evening wind carried gravel into her neck. She shuddered and suddenly opened her eyes, only to see a dim bonfire. The flames licked the dry firewood, crackling, and reflected the flickering of several faces around them - those men wearing burlap shorts were gnawing something around the campfire. The shreds of meat on the bones were gnawed clean, and the sound of teeth rubbing against bones was particularly clear in the silent night.
"Are you awake?" A hoarse voice sounded. The speaker was a bearded man, holding a bone that had turned white from chewing in his hand. His eyes were staring at her like a hawk. "This woman is so desperate that she can still breathe after falling off a cliff."
Jiao Dagoose's head was buzzing, and his whole body ached as if it was falling apart. She remembered that she was clearly working overtime at school to revise music scores. It was raining heavily outside the window, a bolt of lightning struck down, and the lights in the office suddenly exploded. Her vision went dark and she didn't know anything... Why did she end up in such a wilderness as soon as she opened her eyes, and was surrounded by a group of people in costumes from costume dramas?
"Where is this?" She struggled to sit up, but was gasped by the severe pain in her waist. When she lowered her head, she saw blood seeping out from under her coarse clothes, which showed that she was obviously injured.
"Where?" Another tall and thin man sneered, "Where else could it be? The boundary of Xia Kingdom is still a hundred miles away from Pingyu County. You woman, you are dressed strangely, could you be a spirit from the mountains?"
Xia Kingdom? Pingyu County?
