Xia Ren was woken up by a cry.

She opened her eyes in a daze, followed her instinct to turn on the desk lamp at the head of the bed, then sat up, her eyes staring around with a little dull look.

It is a somewhat crowded bedroom filled with ancient decorative styles that were long ago - now only appearing in movies - with wooden wardrobe standing in the corner, and a foot-stitching sewing machine in the corner, and a shabby table and chairs filled with clothes, both men and women.

The bedroom is very small. After being filled with various furniture, the rest is a narrow area surrounding a large bed that can only be used for people to walk around.

Xia Ren looked at the clock at the bedside, and the hands on it marked the current time - 3:07 a.m.

And the reason I know it was early in the morning was because it was still pitch black outside the glass window of the room.

The crying continues and there is a trend of increasing.

Xia Ren followed the crying and turned his head to look beside him.

It was a girl. Because the desk lamp was too dim and the light from the angle was not very clear.

The girl was wearing a thin shirt and sat up, wiping her tears with her hands. She looked about seven or eight years old, with a thin figure, with a thin blanket covering her legs, and the other half of the thin blanket was covered by herself, and the two of them slept on the same bed.

"What's wrong, Theresa."

Xia Ren found that he naturally called out the girl's name.

The girl just kept crying, as if she didn't hear her.

"You're having a nightmare again. Good, good, don't cry."

She stretched out her arms, and gently held Theresa in her arms, patting her back.

Slowly, the crying gradually stopped and the sleepiness came again.

"It's so sleepy. What's the matter? Tomorrow... tomorrow..."

Xia Ren hugged her and lay on the bed, turned off the desk lamp, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

...

...

Not long after sleeping, Xia Ren was woken up again, this time there was a hurried knock on the door.

She got up from the bed angrily, picked up a man's coat from the chair and put it on, and ran downstairs angrily.

"Who!"

When I opened the door, it was still dark outside. There were a group of people standing at the door. The light from the flashlight made her unable to open her eyes.

She covered her eyes with her hands, and through the gap between her fingers, she could see about a dozen people opposite her. They were carrying a stretcher in their hands. There seemed to be a corpse on the shelf, motionless.

The leading man with a fat face walked up, with a guilty expression and said:

"Anna, I'm sorry, your husband was killed by the Voodoo Gang."

"ah?"

Xia Ren was stunned.

What husband?

What does it have to do with me?

What's the situation? What Voodoo Gang?

"Sorry, we still have trouble dealing with it in the future. We will come back to see you mother and daughter when it's dawn."

After the leading man finished speaking, the rest of the people carried the stretcher and placed the body in the house, and then left in a hurry.

Xia Ren stood there, watching their backs melt into the darkness, and found that most of them were injured.

The door was open, only Xia Ren stood at the door herself. The wind blew over and she wrapped her clothes, a little cold.

She turned around and walked into the house, closed the door, looked at the corpse on the floor, and was still a little stunned.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of going downstairs. She looked up and found Theresa running downstairs, and also saw the body, and ran over crying.

"Dad! Dad, what's wrong with you, Dad!"

The little girl lay on the corpse, tears falling down.

Inside the house, there were sad crying echoes.

...

...

In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight penetrates the darkness and shines on the earth, bringing a hint of warmth.

Xia Ren looked at the sunshine outside the door and sighed.

After a few hours, he finally figured out the status quo.

At this moment, the time in the ancient dream was 581 in the new era, which was 526 years behind the real world.

This time gap is farther than the two ancient dreams in the past.

The place he is located in the real area of ​​Shengtiandu, Nanzhou. However, Shengtiandu did not exist at this time, because the Supreme Alliance government has not yet completed complete unification at this time, and the last independent country on Blue Star is still struggling to support it.

This country is Mindracon.

After all, it was the last country to integrate into the Supreme Alliance government. Xia Ren once saw information about this country in textbooks. The books record that the names of the country are peaceful, but the ruling class of the country is unwilling to give up their rights, so he violently suppressed the people and stigmatized the Supreme Alliance government in the country, so he has not joined the alliance for a long time.

However, Xia Ren compared the memory in this body and found that the history recorded in the book was wrong.

Mindren is a country that pursues aggressionism. It was once powerful in history. Its land area covers almost half of the Southern continent. Before the establishment of the Supreme Alliance Government, it was one of the top countries in the world. Since its birth, it has provoked wars everywhere, occupied other countries' lands, and implemented colonial rule. All the surrounding countries received its influence and the domestic chaos was in turmoil. There was a proverb that described the situation of Mindren neighboring countries: "It is too far from heaven and too close to Mindren."

Until now, Mindrecon's textbooks still record the history of aggression they beautified and are proud of.

However, with the establishment of the Supreme Alliance Government and a large number of countries joined in it, the Mindrayon Kingdom was gradually surrounded by the Supreme Alliance, which was ruled by the highest monarch and the elders. They discovered their own situation and knew that joining the Supreme Alliance Government was the general trend and that the people could live better, but in that case, they could no longer exercise their privileges and dominance in the country.

Therefore, they fooled their people, spread false information, provoked opposition between the people and the Supreme Alliance government, in order to stabilize their superior position and ensure their own interests.

But not everyone is a fool. As time goes by, forty-nine of the fifty states of Mindacang declared independence and joined the Supreme Alliance government. Until now, there is only one state left in Mindacang.

And the situation in this state is also in danger.

The corruption of the ruling class has reached its extreme. The government has joined hands with large companies to deceive the people and seize the interests of the bottom class, medical care, education, transportation, etc., and is privatized and controlled by large companies. Ordinary people are afraid to go to the hospital when they are sick. The cost of calling an ambulance alone will exceed one month's salary, not to mention seeing a doctor later. It can be said that the people are living in dire straits and have no trust in the government at all.

With the development of now, the lives of the lower-class people have become chaotic. Major gangs have taken over the government and become the controller of the new order. Violence can be seen everywhere on the streets, and gunfire can often be heard.

Xia Ren's current owner is Anna, who is just 24 years old. Her husband is a member of one of the small gangs and died in the gang struggle last night.

A while ago, Anna heard that the Voodoo Gang was expanding its territory. They had a large company as their background and were extremely cruel. Gang members killed people like numb, trafficking in population, organ rebellion, anesthetics, etc., and did everything.

The gang where Anna's husband is also within the scope of the voodoo gang, but she didn't expect the fight to begin so soon.

Xia Ren briefly analyzed and found that these small gangs were not opponents of the Voodoo Gang at all. They only had three choices, one was to be destroyed by the Voodoo Gang, the other was to escape to another city, and the other was to join the Voodoo Gang.

Obviously, Anna's husband chose the first one.

Now Xia Ren has to consider where he will go after dawn.

Otherwise, before meeting the old dominator, I would probably be captured by the Voodoo Gang and forced to sell the silver.

He remembered that Anna's husband also had a younger brother named Charlie D. Upton Pickerman, who did not join any gang, and perhaps he could ask him for help.
