   (Continued from Chapter 1) After confirming there were no other dangers nearby, Baiye returned to the clinic ruins. The crawler was completely still, fluorescent blood and slime splattered all over the ground, emitting an even more pungent mixed odor. He covered his mouth and nose with a relatively clean piece of cloth, picked up a crowbar covered in filth, and began sifting through the monster's corpse. Most aberration tissues contained excessive radiation or toxins and were worthless without professional treatment. But inside the crawler's mouthparts were several particularly hard, spiral-patterned fangs, materials used by some people in the wasteland to make makeshift weapons or amulets, occasionally exchanged for a little bit of cheap food or clean water. Baiye painstakingly pried off the two largest fangs, wiped off the slime with the cloth, and carefully put them into his pocket. He quickly searched the clinic again, but his luck wasn't great. He only found a half-empty tin can with a suspicious layer of ice inside (perhaps some kind of reagent that had been stored away and evaporated?). He carefully put it away—in the wasteland, any sealed container was precious. Besides that, there was only dust, rubble, and a few pieces of paper with completely blurred handwriting. Leaving the clinic, the sky was even more gloomy, with leaden clouds hanging low as if they might collapse at any moment. The wind carried the astringent smell of rust and distant radioactive dust. Bai Ye tightened the old, torn coat he had dug out of some ruins and headed towards the location of "Old Scar" in his memory. Old Scar was a small-time supply "broker" in this area, also dealing in intelligence. His reputation was neither good nor bad, but at least for now, he still followed the rules of his circle—provided you could offer him something he was interested in, or pay the corresponding price. After navigating streets clogged with abandoned vehicles and collapsed buildings, and avoiding areas noticeably quiet or emitting strange odors, Bai Ye arrived at the edge of a shantytown haphazardly constructed from discarded shipping containers, precast concrete slabs, and corrugated iron sheets. The smells here were more complex: the smoke from burning cheap fuel, the stench of rotting food, the stench of sweat, and a faint, almost imperceptible, sweet tang of blood and chemicals. Old Scar's "shop" was located in a shipping container half-buried underground, with a piece of corrugated iron with the word "Exchange" scrawled crookedly in red paint hanging at the entrance. Two men in tattered leather jackets, their eyes wary, squatted at the door, fiddling with sharpened metal rods. They glanced at Bai Ye, said nothing, but subtly shifted their posture, their guard up. Bai Ye ignored them, directly lifting the dirty canvas that served as a curtain, and bent down to crawl inside. The interior of the container appeared larger than the outside, divided into two sections. A dim oil lamp flickered, illuminating shelves piled high with all sorts of strange and unusual items: rusty tools, twisted metal parts, oddly colored bottles and jars, several firearms in varying conditions, and even some old books with faded covers. The air was thick with the smells of machine oil, dust, and some cheap incense. A bald man with a grotesque scar running diagonally from his forehead to his chin sat behind a crooked table, wiping an old-fashioned revolver with an oilcloth. This was Old Scar. Hearing the noise, Old Scar didn't even look up, saying in a deep, gruff voice, "A rare guest, Little White. Didn't come empty-handed today?" His voice was hoarse, like sandpaper rubbing against sheet metal. Bai Ye walked to the table, pulled the two crawler fangs from his pocket, and placed them on the table. "Take a look at this, what can I trade it for?" Only then did Old Scar raise his eyelids, glance at the items on the table, and fidget with them with his rough fingers. "The crawler's teeth, average quality, and roughly treated. One tooth for half a compressed biscuit, or 150 ml of Grade II purified water." Bai Ye mentally calculated that the price was slightly lower than he had expected, but still within an acceptable range. He didn't agree immediately, but said, "Two teeth together for a whole compressed biscuit, plus tell me if there's any noteworthy news from 'Rust Town' in the north recently? Especially about clean water or medicine." Old Scar stopped cleaning his gun and squinted at Bai Ye. "Kid, you've got quite the appetite. Information? Information is free, isn't it?" He scoffed. "But seeing you brought some good stuff today, I can throw in a few words. The old water treatment plant east of Rusty Town—a while ago, someone heard some noise inside. It wasn't rats, but a 'click-clack' sound, like something crawling. Some people said they saw a reflection, but no one dared to go in and look closely. Maybe some old-fashioned machinery is still running, but it could also be hiding something else." He paused, then added, "That's all the information is worth. Two teeth for a whole biscuit, sure. Clean water, no extras." Bai Ye was silent for a few seconds. The water treatment plant clue was interesting, but the "click-clack" sound and the reflection were vague descriptions, and the risks were unknown. Compressed biscuits were hard currency, enough to stave off hunger. He nodded: "Deal." Old Scar grinned, revealing teeth stained yellow from tobacco. He put down his gun, pulled a grayish-brown lump wrapped tightly in tin foil from under the table, and tossed it to Bai Ye. At the same time, he quickly took the two fangs. Bai Ye took the biscuits, weighed them in his hand to confirm the quantity was correct, and carefully stuffed them into the inner bag. He didn't ask any more questions and turned to leave. "Wait." Old Scar's voice came from behind. Bai Ye stopped but didn't turn around. "Little Bai," Old Scar's tone seemed casual, but Bai Ye could feel the gaze fixed on his back, "This area hasn't been peaceful lately. Several groups of unfamiliar faces have been wandering around, asking about things and people. They're carrying weapons, not like ordinary scavengers or homeless people. You... Be careful." Bai Ye's heart skipped a beat. Unfamiliar faces? Asking about people and things? In this wasteland where survival is uncertain, large-scale movement of unfamiliar groups often meant trouble—raiders, scouts from large forces, or tracking some valuable target. "Thanks." He muttered, lifted the canvas curtain, and went out. The guards at the door were still squatting there, but Bai Ye felt their gazes linger on him for a moment longer. Leaving Old Scar's stronghold, Bai Ye didn't return directly to his temporary, relatively hidden hideout (a corner of a half-collapsed basement). Instead, he circled around a few times, making sure he wasn't being followed, before disappearing into a narrow alley filled with construction debris. He leaned against a cold, broken concrete wall, tore open a piece of foil, broke off a small piece of compressed biscuit, and slowly chewed it. The rough texture, with a slightly salty taste and an indescribable chemical additive flavor, did provide warmth and a feeling of fullness. As he ate, he digested the information he had just received. The old water treatment plant in Rust Town… if there were any still-functioning water purification devices, even outdated models with extremely low efficiency, their value far exceeded a few compressed biscuits. But the danger was equally immense. The "clicking" sound and reflections Old Scar mentioned could be remnants of automated equipment, or more likely, some kind of aberrant creature that thrives in metallic environments or light sources, or even other human forces entrenched there. As for Old Scar's final warning… unfamiliar faces, armed, inquiring. This made him uneasy. In this world, he was merely a lost soul who had only been transported a few days prior, and theoretically shouldn't have any connection with any power. Unless… it was related to the "transmigration" itself? Or perhaps, what troubles remained from the original owner of this body? He shook his head, banishing his wandering thoughts. Too little information; guessing was pointless. The most important thing right now was survival and accumulating resources, while quickly familiarizing himself with and mastering the use of his "one minute" limit. Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of something flashing on the rooftop of the ruined building across the alley. It wasn't a natural reflection; it was more like… the gleam of lenses or metal. Someone? Observing? Bai Ye's heart skipped a beat. He immediately shrank back, hiding most of himself in the shadows of the garbage heap, only revealing half his face, and cautiously peered in that direction. Across the street was a five-story abandoned residential building, most of its windows missing glass, like dark, empty eye sockets. Along the edge of the roof, there were several broken concrete railings. The spot where the reflection had occurred was behind a gap in one of those railings. Now, the place was empty. Was it an illusion? Or was he really being watched? If the latter, who was it? The "unfamiliar face" Old Scar mentioned? Or something else? Bai Ye felt a chill run down his spine. Without hesitation, he quickly stuffed the remaining biscuits into his mouth and, using the complex terrain and the shadows of the ruins as cover, moved swiftly and silently like a ghost, disappearing into a more winding and remote area away from that direction. Whatever it was, being vigilant and staying away from potential surveillance was always the right thing to do. Night deepened, and the wind in the wasteland grew colder. Bai Ye's figure quickly disappeared into the labyrinth of broken walls and heavy shadows. Only the occasional howls from distant places, whether from wild beasts or mutants, and the ceaseless whistling of the wind blowing through metal fragments, echoed in this forgotten land. He needed a new, safer place to spend the night. At the same time, his assessment of the "Rust Town Water Treatment Plant" became more cautious. This world was fraught with danger every minute. And the only thing he could rely on, besides his increasingly vigilant survival instinct, was that precious and fleeting minute. "Time..." He murmured to himself, "is never enough."

    In the spring of 1960, the frozen ground was still covered in sand, and the wind and sand were like knives. When Chen Sanjin opened his eyes, he was lying on a slope on the road to escape famine. The original owner of this body had been pushed to his death by his cousin, and he had died from overwork. His soul had transmigrated and he had been given a second chance at life. Looking at his emaciated family—his weak father, his mother with swollen eyes from crying, his sister who was barely breathing, his younger brother who was gnawing on tree bark, and the empty grain sacks—Chen Sanjin gripped the copper lock on his waist tightly. The silver bracelet and the fake medicine prescription inside the lock were his only means of survival, but the daily intelligence that suddenly appeared in his mind was his golden finger that allowed him to defy fate! Harvesting herbs on the 18th of the twelfth lunar month, scrambling for bean flour on the 3rd of the second lunar month, preparing for rainstorms on the 5th of the second lunar month… each precise piece of information tore open a path to survival in the famine-stricken era. A half-collapsed cave dwelling contained life-saving cornmeal. With his memories of his previous life superimposed on the gifts of heaven, Chen Sanjin was no longer a coward who could be bullied by others. He had to lead his family to survive, going from eating tree bark to having food at every meal, from being a refugee fleeing famine to gaining a foothold!

    (We thought time travel meant becoming plagiarists, but it turned into a real-life survival story.) 📖 *Impersonating a Noble in Langya* ✨One-line summary: Five modern people impersonating nobles in the Qin Dynasty discover—we are the real deal. When we open our eyes, we're sitting around a moldy flatbread, looking at each other in bewilderment: a PhD student, an editor, a fitness instructor, an art student, and a thin, unconscious man. We're dressed in prison clothes, standing on a desolate grassland in the third century BC. The pretty boy touched his face and laughed: "This life is worth it, dressed as a handsome guy!" The burly man broke off a tree branch: "First, think about where to stay tonight." I pushed up my non-existent glasses and pointed to the smoke and dust in the distance: "According to Qin law, fugitives are tattooed and have their noses cut off—they're here." 💥 [First Night on the Run]: The art student suddenly said: "The character engraved on my jade pendant... Is 'Ya'." The editor trembled: "The scar on my back... Is exactly the same as the tattooing punishment picture of the Langya Wang clan in the museum." And unfamiliar memories flashed through my mind: mechanisms, secret passages, and a sentence— "The seventh son of the Langya Wang clan, ordered to hide among the people." 🔥 [The Twist Came Too Fast]: When the pursuers held knives to his neck, the skinny man suddenly sprang up and snatched the sword, his swordsmanship as exquisite as a family heirloom. He wiped the grime from his face and hissed at us, "Gentlemen… why aren't you running? They're going to wipe out the last line of the Langya Wang clan!" 🌟 [The problems we face now]: 1. How many family trees do we need to memorize to impersonate nobles? 2. Will we be burned as monsters for talking about Newton's laws in the Qin Dynasty? 3. Most importantly—who among us is the real fallen noble? 💡 Reading Tips: Pack your rations. This isn't an invincible story; it's a hardcore time-travel tale of five unlucky guys flipping through Qin bamboo slips while farming and building infrastructure. #MyTeammatesAreAllDramaQueensAfterTimeTraveling# #PretendingToBeFromANobleFamilyUnderTheFirstEmperor'sNobleFamily# #WorriedAboutBeingExposedAndExecutedToday# 🌙 Click to add to your favorites and join this adrenaline-pumping ancient survival game.
