Lin Xuan lowered his head and listened to his father, Lin Qingshan, teach him for half an hour.
They only escaped being bombarded with Lin Qingshan's saliva when their mother, Liu Yun, called them to dinner.
Lin Yiren, the younger sister, went to celebrate her classmate's birthday and won't be back for a while. After the family of three finished eating, Lin Xuan didn't even wait for Lin Qingshan and the other person to speak.
He said hello and rushed back to his room.
Lin Qingshan watched Lin Xuan rush into the bedroom and said, "That kid gets impatient after just a few words to him..."
"Why are you worrying so much? Your son isn't the kind of person who doesn't understand things; he has his own plans."
Liu Yun glared at Lin Qingshan, then looked worried and said, "I think you still need to take care of your hidden injuries."
Otherwise, what will you do if you go to Shanhaiguan again in the second half of the year...?
As she spoke, Liu Yun burst into tears.
His voice choked with emotion.
"Don't worry, it's okay."
Lin Qingshan tried to comfort him, but his words lacked conviction.
Those who are family know their own situation. Given his current physical condition, if he is summoned to Shanhaiguan again in the second half of the year...
It seems unlikely that he will come back alive.
However, it would be better if I really died at Shanhaiguan. At least I wouldn't have to suffer from this damned blood curse. If I could gain some merit, I could also provide some protection for my family.
Even if they don't gain any merit, at least their families can be exempted from five years of military service.
This world is constantly engulfed in war because of demons and ferocious beasts.
The frontline at Shanhaiguan suffered heavy casualties.
In order to replenish its military manpower, the Xia Kingdom had already promulgated laws that basically every family would have military service.
This is why Lin Qingshan, despite being injured, still had to go to the battlefield in the second half of the year, heading to the front line at Shanhaiguan.
Inside the room.
Although Lin Xuan closed the door, he heard his parents' conversation clearly.
I couldn't help but feel a lump in my throat.
My eyes are moist.
"Three months. There are only three months left until the college entrance examination. I must work hard to improve my abilities during this period."
I got into Wuhan University, a top-tier university.
In this way, my whole family can be exempted from military service, and my father won't have to go to the front lines.
Lin Xuan gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and his face was full of determination.
Those who can get into a top-tier martial arts university are all top geniuses.
The state always gives preferential treatment to geniuses.
One of the provisions is that students from families of top-tier universities like Wuhan University can be exempted from military service.
Of course, this does not mean a permanent exemption from military service.
It has a ten-year term.
Ten years later, if you want to continue to be exempt from military service, you must donate contribution points.
Earning contribution points is extremely difficult.
However, Lin Xuan was confident that as long as he entered a top-tier martial arts university and resolved the current crisis, he believed he would have enough strength to earn contribution points in the future.
All this confidence naturally stems from the system.
The thought of the system made Lin Xuan restless.
He lay flat on the bed, took a deep breath, and immediately contacted the system in his mind: "System, how do I enter the Ancient Era?"
Also, what would happen if I went in and died?
Once the host falls asleep, they will automatically enter the ancient era in their dream. The host will die in the dream, but the physical body will not die.
However, it can cause significant damage to the soul, and if done too often, it may even affect the very essence of the being.
Therefore, please proceed with caution, host...
"I see!"
Lin Xuan let out a long sigh of relief, completely at ease.
As long as the physical body doesn't die in the dream world, it's fine.
However, he wouldn't deliberately court death because of this, since the system had also said that dying in a dream doesn't necessarily mean real death.
However, it can also affect the soul and even damage the very essence.
It seems we need to be cautious.
Lin Xuan thought to himself, his eyes already closed, a multitude of thoughts swirling in his mind.
As I pondered this, drowsiness overwhelmed me, and I began yawning incessantly.
Gradually fell asleep.
...
The sky was clear and blue, and ancient trees reached for the sky.
The mountains stretched endlessly, and eerie roars could be heard from afar from time to time, deep, cold, and chilling.
The whole world exudes a wild and ancient aura.
But it's not entirely like that. This ancient aura is mixed with the stench of decay, darkness, and desolation, a bloody smell that sends chills down your spine.
This was the scene Lin Xuan saw the moment he opened his eyes.
"Is this... the ancient era?"
He had a feeling that the scene before him was different from the ancient era he had imagined; it was more like a decaying and desolate world that had experienced the end of the world.
But the surroundings were full of life, completely different from the apocalypse.
Lin Xuan frowned slightly, his eyes filled with curiosity, excitement, and caution as he quickly surveyed his surroundings.
This is the edge of a vast, wild jungle. Although the sun is high overhead, visibility in the jungle is not high.
Aside from the fact that the sunlight is blocked by various towering trees.
The most important point is that there is quite a bit of fog in the mountains and forests.
Moreover, there is a growing trend of this becoming increasingly pronounced.
Click, click!
"Uh...uh..."
Suddenly, a strange and hoarse sound rang out, just like the feeling of zombies and ghosts crawling out of the ground in a horror movie.
This sent chills down Lin Xuan's spine, making the hairs on his body stand on end.
"Damn, this ancient era is so creepy! System... are you sure you didn't lead us astray?"
Lin Xuan was frustrated and complained to himself.
boom……
Just then, the thick fog behind him exploded eerily, revealing a creature with a withered body and empty eyes, resembling a zombie.
