He tried to turn over, but as soon as he moved, he felt a sharp pain in his ribs. He couldn't catch his breath and fell back on the bed. His arms were shaking with pain.
Lying flat on his back and breathing heavily, Li Ziyu secretly laughed at himself. He had become a time traveler, but his physical fitness was still so poor.
Look at those time travelers in novels. Not to mention broken bones, even if a knife is stuck in their body and their intestines are pulled out, they can still fight to the death without saying a word, as if their pain nerves have been cut off.
Look at him again, he's definitely a coward.
After panting for a long time and gathering some strength, Li Ziyu carefully supported his body with his arms, fearing that he would hurt his ribs.
Just sitting up halfway made him gasp for breath and cold sweat broke out on his head.
Fractures hurt so much!
After taking a breath of cool air and taking a few deep breaths, Li Ziyu began to check his injuries.
His clothes were taken off and his ribs were wrapped with several layers of dirty rags. Judging from the swelling, it seemed that medicine had been applied to them.
Looking down, his right foot was also bandaged, with two wooden boards fixed on the left and right, and then tightly wrapped with strips of tattered cloth.
It seems that she was rescued by a kind-hearted person. Is it the girl from before?
Li Ziyu looked around and thought that the person who saved him should not be from a wealthy family. No, it should be from a very poor family.
The house was quite spacious, but there were not many things in it. In addition to the wooden bed he was lying on, there was only a three-legged table and a chair.
Just as Li Ziyu was looking around the room, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a girl rushed in. Seeing Li Ziyu sitting up, she exclaimed, "You're finally awake!"
Li Ziyu looked at the girl and realized that she was only about 1.6 meters tall, very thin, and looked malnourished. She couldn't tell what material her clothes were made of, but they were probably cheap material like linen, and were as dirty as her face.
Seeing the girl's impetuous appearance, Li Ziyu wanted to bow, but the pain from his ribs made it difficult for him to move. He could only sit down and said, "Thank you for saving my life."
The girl seemed unaccustomed to such a way of speaking and quickly waved her hands, saying, "It's okay, it's okay. I just saw you fainted, so I rescued you. We should all help each other..."
As she spoke, her voice lowered, as if she had thought of something, her eyes rolled, and then she continued, "Your clothes had already rotted when I rescued you..."
Li Ziyu quickly waved her hands and said to the girl, "It's okay, it's just a piece of clothing, it doesn't matter, don't mind it, girl. My name is Li Ziyu, what's your name?"
Seeing that Li Ziyu didn't mention the clothes, the girl smiled and said, "My name is Elena."
Li Ziyu thanked Elena again for saving her life and asked, "Elena, what is this place?"
Elena blinked and said as a matter of course, "This is my home."
Seeing that Elena didn't understand what he meant, Li Ziyu continued to ask, "What kind of world is this?"
Elina tilted her head and thought for a moment, then asked in confusion, "What do you mean by world? The world is the world."
Li Ziyu sighed, nodded, and stopped asking this question.
Judging from Elena's clothes, she must be from a poor family and probably doesn't know much. I won't get anything out of her by asking her, so I just gave up asking.
"Miss Elena, my injuries haven't healed yet, and I'm afraid I'll have to recuperate here for a while. I apologize for bothering you."
"Well, it's okay to live here, but the food... you might not be used to what we eat."
"It doesn't matter. I'm already like this. It's good enough to be able to stutter. I dare not ask for more."
"Oh well."
Elena also knew that the injured person needed rest, so she chatted briefly with Li Ziyu and then closed the door and left.
Li Ziyu checked his injuries again and lay back down on the bed.
"system!"
