Li Rongrong was fascinated by what she heard. She seemed to see the young and determined Fusu standing on the Great Wall, giving orders with confidence and sweating profusely. She couldn't help but reach out and gently hold Fusu's hand, wanting to give him some comfort and strength.
"Fusu, you are really amazing. In that era, you used your flesh and blood to build this barrier to protect the country. Your spirit will always be remembered by future generations." Li Rongrong's voice was gentle and firm, full of admiration for Fusu.
Fusu felt Li Rongrong's warmth, and a warm current surged in his heart. He smiled and looked into the distance, and continued: "Yes, the Great Wall is not only a military defense line, but also a symbol of the perseverance and self-improvement of our Chinese nation. It has witnessed the joys and sorrows of countless heroes and heroines, and also carries our infinite vision for the future."
The two walked slowly along the steps of the Great Wall, and every step seemed to be on the vein of history. Sometimes they stopped to look into the distance, admiring the magnificent scenery inside and outside the Great Wall; sometimes they bowed their heads in contemplation, feeling the weight and vicissitudes of history.
"Look, that's the beacon tower!" Fusu suddenly shouted, pointing to a tall tower in front.
Li Rongrong looked in the direction of Fusu's finger and saw a towering beacon tower standing on the Great Wall, as if telling of the past glory and honor. She couldn't help but think of the ancient poem "smoke rising from all directions, beacon fires blazing across the sky", and her heart was filled with awe and emotion for that period of history.
"Fusu, what would our country be like if there was no Great Wall?" Li Rongrong asked curiously.
Fusu pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Perhaps, without the Great Wall, our country would face more challenges and difficulties. But it is precisely because of this barrier that we have been able to maintain national stability and unity during the turbulent years. The Great Wall is not only a line of defense, but also a spiritual sustenance and symbol."
The two continued walking until the sun set, and then reluctantly left the Great Wall. Standing at the foot of the mountain, they looked back at the winding Great Wall, their hearts filled with awe and emotion.
"Rongrong, this trip has made me feel my responsibility and mission more deeply." Fusu said to Li Rongrong affectionately.
...

The two smiled at each other, however, happy times are always short-lived.
In a blink of an eye, information related to the mirror came from Qin Shihuang.
After the mirror is upgraded, use Fusu's blood as a guide and smear it on the mirror to travel through time.
This time, Li Rongrong plans to go to Daqin with Fusu.
The next day, they left the Li family's old house and moved back to the scenic area.
This is also to make it easier for them to purchase things to bring to Daqin.
After returning to the house in the scenic area, Li Rongrong and Fusu immediately began to prepare the necessities for the trip to Daqin.
The two discussed that since they had to travel through the magical mirror, they must bring some items that seem ordinary in modern times but may be extremely precious or scarce in ancient times.
First, they made a detailed shopping list. As for food, agriculture in Daqin had already developed, but seeds were not too little, so Li Rongrong bought a lot.
Considering the possible lack of preservation technology in ancient times, they decided to bring some canned and vacuum-packed foods, as well as easy-to-preserve dry foods such as biscuits and nuts.
Medical supplies are also a top priority, including basic medicines, disinfectants, bandages and tourniquets, which were life-saving items in ancient times.
In terms of clothing, they chose clothes that were adapted to the ancient environment, which were convenient for movement and could blend in with the locals. Fusu specially selected several sets of dark robes, which were in line with his status as an ancient prince and easy to hide.
Li Rongrong prepared several sets of Hanfu, which are similar to the clothing of the Qin Dynasty, including gentle skirts and strong clothes for riding. In addition, they also brought some spare clothes and socks.
Next came the necessities of life. Considering that there might not be such convenient toiletries in ancient times as in modern times, they prepared many boxes of shampoo, shower gel, toothpaste and toothbrushes.
For lighting, they purchased many searchlights and candles, as well as some matches, to ensure that there would be a light source in any situation.
In order to enable Daqin to enter the industrial age and reach the electrical age as quickly as possible, Li Rongrong also proposed buying a lot of generators and stockpiling oil.
There are all kinds of pots, pans, and utensils prepared.
In order to deal with possible emergencies, they also prepared some self-defense tools, such as multi-functional military knives, small anti-wolf spray and simple ropes.
The shopping process was busy and fun. The two shuttled between major supermarkets, outdoor goods stores and stationery stores, and found a suitable item every time.
Fusu also showed his careful side. Whenever Li Rongrong was hesitant, he would always patiently analyze the pros and cons and give the most appropriate advice.
One evening, the two returned with a full load, and the hut was filled with all kinds of packages and boxes. They began to sort these items and pack them into categories.
After sorting out their things, the two sat in front of the window, watching the night outside gradually deepen.
Li Rongrong gently held Fusu's hand. They looked at each other in silence, but they could read the deep attachment and reluctance in each other's eyes.
"Rongrong, I will always be with you no matter in ancient times or modern times." Fusu said gently.
"Me too, Xiaoyan. With you by my side, I'm not afraid of anything." Li Rongrong responded.
In the next few days, they continued to perfect their preparations. Fusu also used his wisdom to make some simple hidden weapons and small tools in case of emergency.
Li Rongrong was busy preparing farewell gifts for her parents and brother. She only said that she was going on a trip but did not specify where she was going.
Finally, the day of departure arrived. They prepared everything they needed, and if there were people in the warehouse at this time, they would have seen that all the things they brought with them were piled up like a mountain.
All the liquid funds on Li Rongrong's account, as well as a large part of the gold, silver and jewelry that Fusu had previously given her, were exchanged for supplies.
These are enough to develop the Qin Dynasty.
"Are you ready?" Fusu asked softly, holding the mirror.
"Yes, I'm ready." Li Rongrong answered firmly.
They looked at the mirror together, and saw a faint light on the mirror, as if calling them. The two took a deep breath, walked into the light of the mirror hand in hand.
When Fusu focused his sight again, he had returned to his residence.
The sunlight shines through the delicate window lattices, casting patches of light on the mountains of supplies.
Food, cloth, ironware, various medicines and books that were badly needed in this era were now quietly occupying every corner of the palace and even spreading to the vast courtyard outside the palace.
Fusu looked around and felt uneasy.
