Having arrived in the Eastern Jin and Sixteen Kingdoms era, one should strike out into the current, set one’s heart on the Northern Expeditions, drive the Five Hu tribes from the Central Plains, and then sweep away the aristocratic clans from the imperial court. Such is the way to clear the realm, build a new enterprise, and carry on Chinese civilization. That is the theory. But in the autumn of Yonghe 5, AD 349, when a 15.7kVotes911.1kRecs1.1MFans

The character has two meanings: first, to expand; second, to clarify. During the Eastern Jin and Sixteen Kingdoms period, they braved the turbulent waters, determined to launch a northern expedition, first against the Five Barbarian tribes of the Central Plains, and then sweeping away the powerful clans and aristocratic families of the court. Their aim was to pacify the world, create a new era, and ensure the continuation of Chinese civilization. That's true in theory, but in the autumn of the fifth year of Yonghe (349 AD), when the time traveler arrived in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and became one of the most common refugees in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the first thing to consider was how to survive the winter and how to avoid falling below the death line. It's another clichéd time-travel story.

[China Writers Association's 2026 Most Valuable Literary IP Works for Commercialization] [The 37th Galaxy Awards' Most Valuable Science Fiction IP] [Nominated for the Galaxy Award for Best Online Literature, and winners of the Galaxy Project and Human Theater writing competitions] The heavy rains that had been falling in Jiangcheng for months had concealed many suspicious things. Yu Xian felt he was sick: people around him were disappearing one after another, one smiling suicide case after another occurred, his habits and memories didn't match up, strangers online were having the same dreams, and a university professor died mysteriously. The rain intensified, turning the city into isolated islands. With the floods raging, rumors of "man-made rainstorms" are rampant, vaguely pointing the finger at scientific research institutions. An audio clip titled "Midnight Bus" spread like wildfire through the disconnected campus, even pulling people into a lucid dream. This is a story about searching for the truth of the world during a long rainy season. (Science fiction + suspense, complete outline, plenty of drafts, no riddles, all foreshadowing will be resolved)

Curator note

The first year of Jiayou. The war between the Song and Xia dynasties gradually ceased, and the Qingli era had become a thing of the past. Lu Beigu, a professor of Chinese language and literature, woke up by the Anle Creek. What comes into view is an era of flourishing culture and brilliant stars. That year, Su Shi, exclaiming "What a delightful breeze!", Traveled from Sichuan to the capital; Zeng Gong, having repeatedly failed the imperial examinations, was disheartened and dejected; and Zhang Heng, confident and waiting to make a name for himself. In that year, Zhang Zai's four lines of prose had not yet resonated throughout China, the Neo-Confucianism of the Cheng brothers was still in its infancy, and Ouyang Xiu's revival of classical prose was just beginning. Starting as a poor scholar in the county school, Lu Beigu had no choice but to pick up his pen and try to change his fate. Inadvertently, he added a rich and colorful touch to the "Millennium Dragon and Tiger List", which is unparalleled in history. A young man with unwavering courage and integrity, his writings rivaling those of kings and nobles. Drunk, I whipped my whip past the stars at Fanlou, my robes brimming with the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty and the elegance of the Song Dynasty!
