[JX3] An American Guy’s Journey Through the Tang Dynasty

An American guy planning to specialize in East Asian Studies woke with a start while racing to finish a paper on the military governors of the Tang Dynasty. His vision went black. He hadn't even taken a sip of the coffee he'd just made before he toppled over.

When he woke, he found himself lying on a bed inside a cramped thatched hut.

An Asian man came through the door. Seeing him awake, the man excitedly rattled off a stream of words. He couldn't understand a single one, but judging by the clothes, this was probably ancient China.

He threw off the covers and got out of bed. He felt the bricks and lifted the water vessel to inspect its base. As the newcomer watched him with an increasingly strange, almost horrified expression, he identified the manufacturing techniques.

It seemed to be somewhere around the Sui and Tang period.

...It seemed this wasn't a prank.

The guy was stunned.

As he tried to fit into his new life, his passion for East Asian culture burned ever brighter. He threw himself into learning Classical Chinese and often helped the villagers work their fields. But just as he was getting along better and better with them, he had no idea that...

He hadn't ended up in authentic ancient China. He was in Jian Wang 3.

An American guy's chaotic journey through Jian Wang 3.

He'll befriend a Mingjiao warrior and nearly get arrested as a Hu merchant spy. He'll think this is a normal world, until he sees Tiance patrol soldiers glowing red as they chase down martial artists, and until he sees his Mingjiao friend soar into the sky.

...Science, Goddess of Science, give me a hand one more time.
