"Steal, steal, stealable, very steal. He steals, you steal, I steal, everybody steals. One, two, three, four, all steal. Steal in the day, steal at night, every moment steal steal steal. I am stealing, I enjoy stealing. Tsk tsk tsk, nonsense!"
A young woman sitting in front of her PC humming a weird tune as she clicked her mouse with her right hand. Her large, round dark eyes stared intently at the farm on the computer screen. Her slender finger continued to click around her best friend's farms. Rows and rows of flying harvest brought a sweet smile to her face.
Ever since the launch of this farming game, many people were crazily addicted. They steal vegetables during work, they steal after work. Some even set an alarm clock to wake up in the middle of the night just to steal. It got quite out of hand.
In recent years, new games have been abundant, so fewer and fewer people continue to play these types of simple farming games. Cheng Xiao Xiao, however, never gave up her simple farm for other games. Why? Because she misses her childhood where she spent in farmland. Simple farming chores such as pulling weeds, collecting firewood, harvesting wheat, planting vegetables, she had done it all.
Now she is a Chinese herbalist who had joined the workforce just two years ago. Her work is simple and she passes her days happily. She works in the daytime and stays home and reads or plays video games at night. She is what society refers to as an "introvert".
Ring Ring Ring!
Her cellphone that has been sitting on the table started to ring. Cheng Xiao Xiao did not take her eyes off the monitor as she reached for her phone with her other hand. However, she knocked over a glass of water and it spilled all over her phone.
She didn't even realize any of this, all of a sudden, bright colorful lights emanated from the phone. She was finally aware of the accident and started turning her head toward her phone. She didn't have any time to react before she was swallowed by the colorful lights.
Cheng Xiao Xiao felt that the entire world was spinning, it was as though her soul was sucked into the Aurora borealis, and she lost consciousness….
Dafeng Country, Qing'an Province, Town Willow, and foothills of Mt. Wan'an.
"Sister, Sister, wake up, Sister, wake up….."
A crisp, kid's voice rang next to her ears, a groggy Cheng Xiao Xiao had a headache and felt that her head was swollen and about to explode. She struggled to lift her heavy eyelids, but a sharp, bright light made her closed her eyes again.
"Aiya, big sister is about to wake up! Big sister is about to wake up! Mom! Mom! Big sister is about to wake up!"
The person next to her seemed to have noticed her abnormality, a voice full of happiness rang next to her ears again Cheng Xiao Xiao felt that they might be referring to her.
But, since when did she becomes someone's big sister? She was quite sure she was a single child.
Before she was able to sort out what was going on, a cacophony of noises approached her. She heard a gentle and somewhat anxious voice, "Did Xiao Xiao wake up? Her eyes are still closed. Zheng Yuan, you are not lying to your mother, are you?"
"No, mom, big brother was not lying to you. Big sister opened her eyes!" That voice sounded like it belonged to an even younger boy.
Cheng Xiao Xiao ignored the throbbing headache and opened her eyes again. This time she slowly got used to the bright light. When her eyesight met the few pairs of bright eyes looking at her, there was an exploding sound inside her head and her mind went blank.
She was stunned!
She was shocked beyond words!
There were three kids and a young woman standing in front of her, but that wasn't the oddest thing. Why were they all wearing outfits from the past?!
"Xiao Xiao, are you okay? Don't scare your mother. Tell me where are you not feeling well!"
Her worried expression, her concerned voice, she sounded very sincere. Cheng Xiao Xiao silly called her, "Mom, I…."
"Big sister, how come you pa.s.sed out all of a sudden? Mom and we were truly scared!" A little boy around the age of twelve said to her.
Next to him, there was another boy around ten standing in front of her. The youngest one who has yet to say a word was a little girl around seven or eight. You could tell they are siblings from their looks.
What had happened?
Cheng Xiao Xiao was truly dumbfounded.
Inside her mind was a big mess. She didn't feel right. Did she transmigrate?
"Xiao Xiao, is your head still hurting? Do you want me to go get the doctor?"
The concerned questioning interrupted her thoughts, she looked closely at the fair-looking woman in front of her. Her concerned look made her feel a warmth inside her heart, she couldn't help but say, "I… I am alright…"
"Are you sure?" asked Mrs. Cheng, a bit hesitant.
"Yeah… really… I am okay, mom. Just let me rest for a bit."
Mrs. Cheng noticed that Xiao Xiao looked like she was okay, she felt much better now though that did not relieve the frowning on her face. She barked orders at the other kids, "Zheng Yuan, Zheng Bin, Lan Lan, go play outside. Let your sister sleep!"
The three kids turned around and left obediently to let their sister rest. Once all the "family members" were gone, Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn't fall asleep at all. She looked around the room that she was in. This was the first time she noticed them.
Inside the room, other than the bed that she was lying on, there was a box, a table, a stool, and nothing else. All these three items look old and beat up. She could even see the wall made out of mud and straws covering the roof of the house. Cheng Xiao Xiao was speechless.
Even though she didn't have memories of how she had gotten here. One thing she was sure of was that this was not her home; this was not where she was from.
She had officially become a member of the transmigration army while playing QQ Farm.
A few days later!
A 16-year old kid wearing clothing made out of rough fiber, light brows, large eyes, slender pointy face. Not extremely beautiful, but still quite fair.
Cheng Xiao Xiao looked at her reflection on the water. She had become ten years younger, should she be happy about it? These last few days, she had come to accept that she had become someone else.
She found out that where she was was similar to the old Tang dynasty. She was quite surprised that the era that she was in was not found any time in history, but one by the name of Dafeng Country. Specifically, she was residing in Willow Village, a remote border area of Dafeng Country.
Her family wasn't a part of the Willow Village natives, her folks had just moved here some three years ago. As to where they were from, she had no idea. She had amnesia when it came to anything that happened before she woke up in front of her family.
Their house was only a few miles from Willow Village. They could see Willow Village from their front door. They didn't socialize too much with the villagers, but there were still considered the residents of Willow Village. They'd chitchat with Willow Village's residents when they ran into each other.
The most distressing news of all was that not only was the family extremely poor, their 30-something dad was beaten up by someone just a few days ago. They'd crushed his bones and severed his nerves. But the family was so poor that they couldn't afford to have a doctor come and look at him. All he could do was to lay on the bed and fight for his life.
