Chapter 1: You Only Know You Are a Guest When You Waken Up from your Dreams

In the massacre case, Sun Yi, the captain of the HS criminal police department, didn't sleep for three days. Seeing that the case was finally settled, he went home and slept immediately without saying a word.

Just after lying down, he heard someone banging on the door outside, "My Lord, My Lord! Wake up! Something serious has happened!"

The banging noise was like someone beating a drum. It’s hard to even pretend that Sun Yi couldn't hear it, so he opened his eyes in a daze and felt his whole body was not right. In particular, his mouth and nose were sticky and seemed to be blocked by something.

He subconsciously stretched out his hand and grabbed the dark brown viscous liquid on his face, which gave off a choking smell.

Blood?!

Sun Yi was now completely awake. He jumpedbout of his bed and looked around warily, only to find that his messy bedroom has changed into a new world.

The wooden frame and paper window lattice, the big bed with brocade curtain, the wardrobe with five blessings and longevity carved, and the crane Candlestick stepping on the back of the dragon and tortoise. Especially on the wooden frame under the western wall, there was a cold light sparkling saber that was filled with golden thread!

What the hell is this exactly…

For a moment, Sun Yi's mind was a little confused. In a trance, he couldn't figure out whether he was awake or still asleep.

He then found that there was a high bronze mirror beside the saber. He immediately rushed to the bronze mirror in a few steps. His feelings mixed with 30% fear and 70% expectation, he carefully looks into the mirror.

The face reflected in the bronze mirror, although still with thick eyebrows and big eyes, was at least a decade younger, with more angular features and a larger body size. But even more remarkable was the bronze muscle cast like steel.

A line of an apollo's belt, eight abdominal muscles, an inverted triangle muscle group…

Sun Yi subconsciously bended his arm and saw a hill on his biceps. It was conservatively estimated that it’s a D cup!

What the…

Could this be the legendary crossing back to the ancient?!

Sun Yi staggered back half a step. His mind was confused like a pot of porridge. From the corner of his eye, he inadvertently saw the saber. He didn't know which nerve was in the wrong. He suddenly had an impulse to hold the saber in his hand. He reached out and grabbed the saber in the palm of his hand.

The Saber looked very heavy, but it was as light as an aluminum piece when held by him.

Sun Yi accidentally used more strength, and the nine copper rings crashed and clattered. The crisp crash sound seemed magical. It went straight down his ears into the depths of his brain, and then countless pieces of memory exploded in his mind!

In the ninth year of the Great Zhou Dynasty Guangde?

Sun Shaozong, military attache stationed in the State of Qian Xiang?

Offended Prince Yizhong?

And a biological brother named Sun Shaozu?

These memory fragments were not complete, and the sequence was even more disordered. Sun Yi spent a lot of effort sorting out a general context.

This body originally belonged to a guy named Sun Shaozong. He was born into a military family of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He almost lost his life because he offended the powerful officials of the current Dynasty. As a last resort, his brother Sun Shaozu had to trust him and sent him to the state of Qian Xiang country for temporary refuge.

However, Sun Shaozong did not break away from "The Embrace of the Imperial Court of the Great Zhou Dynasty" in Qian Xiang country. He is now a military attache of the Great Zhou Dynasty stationed in the state of Qian Xiang country. He conferred the rank of captain of the six ranks of the imperial guards and is in charge of more than 30 guards in the embassy. He is regarded as the number two under Ambassador Niu Yongxin.

Although Sun Yi was somewhat confused about the dynasty of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the kingdom of Qian Xiang, he at least had a basic understanding of this era after accepting these memory fragments, and his heart feels a little more secure.

Sigh~

Now that I've crossed over, I'm afraid I can only accept my fate.

Sun Yi... No, Sun Shaozong had to face the reality,

The sound of the beating door like a drum was heard again, "My Lord, My Lord! Wake up! Lord Niu was assassinated and killed!"

Ambassador Niu Yongxin is dead?!

Sun Shaozong immediately flashed a message in his mind. According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if the imperial envoy died in a foreign country, all accompanying guards must die to apologize for not taking good care of the imperial envoy!

Damn!

Wasn't he the leader of Niu Yongxin's guard?! Was he going to lose his head when he just crossed here? This was even sadder than getting beheaded after going a thousand miles!

Sun Shaozong didn't have time to think about it, so he took the saber and pulled the latch open. As soon as he pulled it, the two gates separated from each other like pieces of paper and hit the wall with a loud “bang” and the dust rustled down from the vibrating beams.

He stepped over the threshold and saw a short man with a helmet and armor standing outside. He grabbed the other man's neck, gently and skillfully carried it to his eyes, and shouted, "Niu Yong... How did Lord Niu die?”

"Ho... Ho..."

The short person was pedaling in the air with his hands and feet, and his mouth was making a loud breathing sound. How could he say a proper sentence?

Sun Shaozong realized that he had almost strangled him by accident, so he carefully put the short person back on the ground. It seems that the other party was not very short, it was just that Sun Shaozong was too bulky, so it seems that the other party was not tall enough.

Moreover, using the weight of this person as a parameter, Sun Shaozong also realized that the saber was not very light and might even weigh several kilograms more than he had guessed at the beginning.

This bronze muscle is not a decoration!

"Cough... Cough..."

The short person, who was not really short, coughed for a long time before he was relieved. He said with a sad face, "Wasn’t Lord Niu invited to attend the wedding banquet of Qinglin Prefecture Magistrate, Ruanliangshun Xuxian today? At the wedding banquet, a dozen thieves suddenly assassinated Lord Niu, together with his four brothers!"

Qinglin Mansion was the capital of the Qian Xiang Kingdom, while Ruanliangshun was the prefect of Qinglin Mansion. In modern times, it was equivalent to the role of the mayor of the capital.

Sun Shaozong was trying to piece together the relevant information in his heart when he heard the "short person" grumbling, "In fact, if you didn't feel sick and couldn't go with him, Lord Niu wouldn't have lost his life. The assassins wouldn't be enough for you to chop in two or three times. Not to mention that after they succeed, they can’t even escape almost half of their men!”

This angry tone doesn't seem to be flattering.

If Sun Shaozong had been present, with his strange strength and muscle of his body, he might have stopped the assassins as he said…

Wait!

Sun Shaozong suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his head. He quickly handed the saber to his left hand, spread out the palm of his right hand, and looked at it carefully. Then he burst out, "Feng... Feng Xin, immediately summoned everyone from the embassy to the front hall! Just say that I will call the names one by one. If you see any suspicious deeds, take them immediately!"

It took him a long time to remember the identity of the short person in front of him, Feng Xin, one of his two seven-grade patrol inspectors.

Uh~

Considering the other patrol, Niu Yongxin died with him in Ruan's mansion. He was now the only patrol under his command.

When Feng Xin heard what he said, he didn't mean to take his orders. Instead, he sighed dejectedly and shook his head, "It's no use, My Lord. The East and West gates have been locked, and the embassy is surrounded by the troops of Qian Xiang. With the number of people in our hands, we can't rush out! I think we are doomed this time, and we will be buried with Lord Niu..."

Seeing that the more Feng Xin talked, the more he was frustrated. His eyes became red and he was about to cry.

Hearing this, Sun Shaozong could not bear it. He lifted him again into the air and shook him like a lantern. He shouted, "I order you to assemble everyone now, immediately! Do you understand?!”

"I… I’ve understood! I'll do it now!"

Feng Xin just feels that his bones were falling apart. How did he even dare to take risks and disobey orders? He hurriedly rushed out of the yard!

Tch! What a disaster!

Seeing Feng Xin's back disappear behind the door, Sun Shaozong's face also collapsed. Now that the city gate is closed and the embassy is besieged by heavy troops, there must be no place to escape. At present, the only way to survive is to catch those escaped assassins before the news is sent back to the Great Zhou Dynasty to make atonement.

Fortunately, as a policeman in the criminal department, he was best at investigating cases!
