After drifting in the sky above a certain alien continent for hundreds of thousands of years, he felt that he might need a body to be considered a complete transmigrator. However, he did not expect that after finally succeeding, he would have to crawl out of the coffin with this body and face two terrified great-great-great-granddaughters. And a world that is about to reach the end of its era.

The new book, "The New Book," has been released. It tells the story of a time traveler's battle against the chosen one of the worlds during the Xin Dynasty. Looking back over a thousand years, the palaces of the Han dynasty still stand! It was the third year of Emperor Zhao of Han's Yuanfeng reign. Powerful ministers held sway in the court, the Xiongnu were not yet defeated, and the Silk Road remained a thread that could not be severed... Although Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are gone, the pioneering spirit of the Han people will never cease, and new heroes are about to emerge! In the Gobi Desert near Dunhuang, at a post station called Xuanquanzhi, a lowly clerk named Ren Hong threw down his pen and angrily shouted: "A true man should not be without ambition; he should emulate Zhang Qian and Fu Jiezi, achieving merit in foreign lands to gain titles and honors. How can he spend his life confined to the world of books and inkstones?" Book club group: 1021675508. VIP group (disciple level and above): 496717165.

(My new book, "The New Book," has been released. It tells the story of a time traveler's battle against the chosen one of the worlds during the Xin Dynasty.) At the end of the Warring States period, China experienced a great upheaval unprecedented in a thousand years. Some people are born into noble families. Some of them are noblemen. He was reborn as Hei Fu, a lowly soldier in the Qin state, a minor figure in the Qin bamboo slips of Yunmeng. To avoid dying in the ravine and to take control of his own destiny, he struggled to climb upwards. Fortunately, he was born in a great era. The six kingdoms were defeated, and the world was unified! A thousand years of bloodline could not withstand the power of military merit bestowed upon one. The nobles and powerful of the six kingdoms were all trampled underfoot by Qin officials. Hei Fu could only laugh and ask: Are kings and generals born with a special destiny? He conquered the Baiyue in the south, repelled the Xiongnu in the north, forced the Di and Qiang tribes to flee west, and sent warships eastward. Within the six directions, all was the Emperor's land. How did history change under his influence? Qin Shi Huang was destined to die, and the empire would soon be divided. As a Qin official, what choice should one make: to fuel the flames or to try and save the day?

Reborn as Sun Ce, he dominates the Three Kingdoms. When he woke up from his dream, he had become Sun Ce, the Little Conqueror. His biological father, Sun Jian, was fighting in Xiangyang and his life was hanging by a thread. He had to save his father, fight for the country, and rescue both the chaotic world and the beauty, but things were not as simple as he imagined. Yuan Shao, from a family that had held high office for four generations, was very powerful, but the lack of horses in Jiangdong made it difficult to contend for supremacy. The young emperor was very intelligent, but the scholars were arrogant and naive. The aftermath of the Yellow Turban Rebellion had not yet subsided, and powerful clans were already beginning to emerge. Famous ministers and fierce generals were merely shadows on the stage; an invisible hand was pulling them from behind the scenes. There was exhilaration, regret, and helplessness, but the original intention remained unchanged. With a bit of foresight, we gathered the wisdom and strength of good ministers and brave generals to forge the backbone of a powerful civilization. This is my Three Kingdoms, and I am Sun Ce, the Little Conqueror. —— Lao Zhuang's book club: 23470572, welcome to join!

Hao Ren, true to his name, is a good person whose ideal is to live a peaceful life as a landlord who is neither poor nor rich—at least that's how it was before a bunch of crazy creatures moved into his house. A secluded, dilapidated house, a bunch of somewhat abnormal non-human creatures, and a labor contract from a "god"—these three elements combined make Hao Ren the busiest landlord and most capable nanny in the world. Thus begins the most chaotic, strangest, and most abnormal landlord-tenant story. "From the day I put my fingerprint on the employment contract, I knew I was on a sinking ship..."
