A Shocking Dream

She was the first such unique and admirable girl I met here, and also the last. Honestly, I really wanted to be her friend, to understand her story and inner world. Unfortunately, she was aloof. No matter how hard I tried, she wouldn't even give me a chance to meet alone. I could only watch her busying around the barracks from afar, filled with regret and admiration. In this turbulent world, she didn't worry about her appearance like other girls, nor did she follow her father's lead at home and her husband's after marriage. She shone in her own unique way, becoming a unique sight. And I, with curiosity and admiration for her, continued my journey, hoping to meet her again one day in the future.

Of the six countries I've visited, each had a different language and lifestyle. However, only the Yuan Dynasty's climate and pace of life suited my taste. This Yuan Dynasty wasn't the one depicted in history books, but rather a fictional era. Yet, their lifestyle closely resembled the ancient life described in history books: working from sunrise to sunset, everything seemed so peaceful and tranquil.

So, until I found a way back home, I planned to find a suitable location in the Yuan Kingdom for permanent residence. However, the Yuan Kingdom's high cost of living meant my meager monies were enough for basic living, but not enough to buy land or a house. To earn some money, I decided to apply my medical knowledge to treat the sick. While Yuan Dynasty medical expertise was advanced, it was only effective for minor and common ailments. They were completely unable to diagnose any complex or intractable illnesses. Furthermore, I lacked specialized medical equipment, and my knowledge was limited to the basics.

I began using my machinery to create devices. Drawing on my memory and creativity, I diligently transformed modern medical concepts into practical tools for this era. The process was filled with challenges and difficulties, but I didn't give up. Whenever I encountered a problem, I repeatedly pondered and experimented, constantly improving and refining it.

Gradually, my efforts bore fruit. I successfully crafted some simple yet practical medical devices, using them to cure difficult and complex illnesses. Word spread like wildfire, and my fame began to spread throughout the Yuan Empire. People were filled with admiration and gratitude, and gradually, I became known as a miracle doctor.

My time in the Yuan Kingdom was busy but incredibly fulfilling. I knew I was one step closer to my goal. I looked forward to the day when I could find a way back. I also hoped to continue using my knowledge and skills to bring hope and health to people in this unfamiliar world.

After two years of practicing medicine, I still couldn't earn the silver I desired. Looking at my meager savings, I felt a surge of frustration. So, I decided to travel around the Yuan Kingdom, earning more silver while also exploring more suitable places to live. However, finding a way back was the key.

Go back? How? I've been here for eight years, day after day, year after year. I've even studied the seven-star conjunctions shown on TV, but to no avail. But I haven't given up. I keep telling myself I don't belong here. I can't be trapped in this strange world. I must find my way home.

I didn't reveal my martial arts skills, but I also didn't slack off on my diligent training. I knew that even if no one was impersonating me, I was still afraid someone might become jealous and attack me. Knowing martial arts skills for self-defense was my greatest sense of security. I had no friends, and I didn't dare to make close ones. In this world, I was always wary and didn't trust anyone easily.

One day, I passed through a remote village. A sense of sadness permeated the air. Upon asking around, I learned that an elderly man was seriously ill and had been bedridden for several days. I decided to visit him. Entering his room, I saw he was pale and breathing weakly. I carefully examined him and discovered he had a rare illness.

Drawing on my medical knowledge, I began treating the old man. I brewed a herbal broth and carefully fed it to him. I also used simple medical equipment I had made to assist him. After several days and nights of effort, the old man's condition finally began to improve.

The villagers were filled with gratitude and sent me food and daily necessities. I felt a surge of warmth in my heart, which made me more determined to practice medicine and save lives.

I walked alone through the bustling marketplace, bustling with people and brimming with life. I walked by mountains and rivers, feeling the grandeur and tranquility of nature. I wandered through rural fields, admiring the beautiful scenery and breathing the fresh air. Although this place lacks the electronic gadgets and convenient transportation of the real world, life here has enriched me, taught me more, and made me feel more comfortable.

Sometimes, I even had the thought that if I couldn't return, I'd just die peacefully. After I died, I didn't care where my body ended up, even if it was cemented and stuck to a wall. It wouldn't be me who was afraid. However, this thought was fleeting. I knew I couldn't give up. I had to find my way home, back to the world that belonged to me.

In this strange world, I have no feelings for any man here. I only have one thought in my mind, which is to find a way to go back, back to the world that belongs to me.

People often inquire about my relationship status, and whenever they do, I refuse without hesitation. I don't want to get involved in any emotional entanglements in a place that doesn't belong to me; it will only make my journey home more difficult.

Once, in a bustling town, I was picking some herbs from a street stall when a graceful man approached. He was dressed in fine clothes, his eyes radiating confidence and tenderness. He smiled and greeted me, his words full of admiration.

"Girl, you are here alone, which is very eye-catching. I wonder if I would have the honor to meet you?" The man's voice was pleasant.

I frowned slightly and responded coldly, "Sorry, I'm not interested in getting to know anyone."

The man was not discouraged. He continued, "Young lady, don't be so quick to refuse. I see that you are quite knowledgeable about herbs. You must be a doctor. I also know a little about medicine. We can exchange ideas."

I glanced at him and said, "No need. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." After that, I turned around and was about to leave.

However, the man blocked my way, his eyes revealing a hint of determination. "Girl, I really want to make friends with you. Can't you just give me a chance?"

I felt a little angry, and my tone became even colder. "I told you, I don't want to know you. Please move aside."

The man looked at my determined expression, finally sighed helplessly, and stepped aside. I left without looking back, feeling no emotion at all.
