Ten thousand years ago.
Recently, Zhang Zhi always felt that his heartbeat began to speed up inexplicably.
It is intermittent, with sudden throbbing from time to time. From time to time, I suddenly want to stay on the Ba Bridge.
Maybe this is a signal connection with someone somewhere in time and space, maybe it's a resonance and intersection with an invisible person's soul.
In recent times, she seemed to have transformed into a little woman who was ready to see the one she loved. I began to dress myself up meticulously every day.
I didn't really care about these things before because I'm naturally beautiful and don't need heavy makeup.
But now I have learned how to put on makeup and wear clothes that are at the forefront of fashion.
She didn't know why she became like this. She always had an impulse in her heart, as if she was about to meet the most important person in her life, and she cared extra about her beauty.
Make up in front of the mirror.
The phone kept vibrating on the dressing table, and messages kept coming out of the chat software. But she never paid attention to it.
There are always outstanding boys in school pursuing her. Although she has always been single, she has never had the slightest feeling for anyone. In her world view, people in this world are divided into two types, the first is family members, and the second is ordinary friends.
There is a third type of person, and that should be the lover who makes you throb.
But that position has always been vacant, as if waiting for someone.
I turned off my phone, and for some reason I felt bored after seeing these messages.
Just like a woman who is passionately in love, she will feel bored when other boys approach her.
But she was not in love, but she was in a kind of love that was better than being in love.
"Is the prince in my heart about to appear... I've been having such a premonition lately."
Facing the beauty in the mirror, Zhang Zhibo smiled and showed a long-lost smile.
The mood will change as someone comes closer.
Now I no longer know what my purpose is, who I want to wait for, or who I want to wait for. All I know is that it must be in that place and cannot be missed.

'do not miss it'
Ten thousand years later.
Waking up from bed, Li Zhen's eyes were hazy and wet with tears.
He seemed to have had a dream, something he had forgotten, and he could not remember it at all. When I woke up from the dream, I just murmured: "Can't miss it."
I don’t know what I can’t miss, I just want to say that there is a touch of bitterness in my heart, as well as a faint excitement and nervousness.
The origin of the mood is unknown…
"It's time to go."
Give an order.
On the morning of the 8th, all the staff of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences gathered together and stood in neat rows in the playground.
Watching Li Zhen boarding a steam car with an expressionless face, the sound of 'woo woo woo' gradually faded away.
No one in the college said a word, but everyone had nervousness and sadness in their eyes.
"The 1st, 2nd and 3rd Battalions of the Qingdao County Marine Corps will escort along the way to ensure that Dean Li is safe. There should be two thousand people, but there are actually two thousand people!"
After passing the county seat of Laoshan County, more than two thousand soldiers riding steam vehicles or riding war horses, all equipped with the highest standard cold weapons and firearms, had been waiting for a long time, and the leader shouted.
Following Qi Lengzi's wave, all the guards cleared the way in front of Li Zhen's car.
Get out of Laoshan County.
More and more soldiers began to line up and wait, and then merged into the motorcade protecting Li Zhen.
Outside Qingdao County, the number of people guarding Li Zhen increased to 10,000.
'Woooooo'
Dozens of large steam vehicles loaded with supplies drove up and followed the team.
The large steam vehicles were all carrying weapons, food, and supplies. Everything is fully loaded for use along the way.
This is the fleet of the Ten Thousand Years Consortium.
Then, a mysterious force also merged into the convoy.
Everyone in this mysterious army is extremely tough and bald, and they are all well-trained. Each of them had bullet belts wrapped around their bodies, several firearms on their backs, and daggers wrapped around their legs.
This is a private armed force under the jurisdiction of the Ten Thousand Years Consortium and sent by the Kyushu Arsenal.
That semi-automatic rifle is not mature yet, but it is ready for use. People in the consortium sent them to protect Li Zhen along the way.
Although many people are dissatisfied with Li Zhen's adventurousness, no one in Dongzhou can disobey any of Li Zhen's thoughts. This protection can only be protected with all our strength.
Passing through Quancheng County, there was no stop. What is surprising is that Emperor Jiang of Xinyuan Kingdom actually came out to meet Li Zhen and said to pay attention to safety.
In the entire Xinyuan Kingdom, only Emperor Jiang least expected anything to happen to Li Zhen. Because he was still under house arrest in Dongzhou, if something happened to Li Zhen and someone blamed Xinyuan Kingdom, he would be the first to be unlucky.
Along the way, the entire Dongzhou people stood along the street and watched Li Zhen go away. From beginning to end, no one said anything, no one said anything like 'waiting for you to come back'.
Because everyone was dissatisfied with Li Zhen and felt that he was being irrational by putting himself in a dangerous situation.
On the 9th, we left Dongzhou territory. The team protecting Li Zhen expanded to 20,000 people.
Twenty thousand people came from different forces, which was simply a terrifying scale. Twenty thousand people, this safe density, even if Xun Jiayuan of the Kyushu Imperial Court travels, there will be no such big movement.
You know, what is the concept of 20,000 people. That is to say, these 20,000 people do nothing and eat hundreds of thousands of coins worth of food in just one day.
Not to mention traveling a long distance, the scale of supplies required is even more terrifying.
In fact, before Li Zhen decided to go to Zhongzhou. The caravans of the seven major groups have already formed a network, spreading out from Dongzhou and heading towards Balong City. The caravan will arrive at the front station in advance.
These caravans all operate in secret. When it comes to black and white, they are the ones who have the most freedom. Several days in advance of Li Zhen, various arrangements were made along the way to collect intelligence, and utmost care must be taken to ensure Li Zhen's safety.
The moment they left Dongzhou, a force of 5,000 imperial troops appeared in front.
"alert!"
There was a shout from the front.
'Crash'
The sound of guns being loaded and swords being unsheathed was instantly heard throughout Li Zhen's team.
The surrounding security personnel immediately gathered around Li Zhen's steam car like a tide.
A large transport steam vehicle followed the steam vehicle, and the tarpaulin outside was suddenly pulled down.
There were several sounds of '簌簌簌'. The blowtorch sounded.
But dozens of people immediately started operating urgently. On the large steam vehicle, the hot air balloon made of sky blue oilcloth quickly inflated.
Before Li Zhen could figure out what was going on, he was escorted off the steam car by hundreds of people, forcibly escorted onto the transport vehicle carrying the hot air balloon, and was involuntarily pressed into the hoist of the hot air balloon. In the basket…
"Lift off!"
Qi Lengzi gave the order and jumped into the hanging basket first. The people below immediately untied the rope. The hot air balloon floated into the sky with a whoosh.
But an extremely long rope was always connected to the gondola and the large steam car, just like flying a kite, lifting Li Zhen into the sky...
