Tomb raiding: A mere 20 is nothing!

[Background Information]

1. Timeline: Ten years—Rain Village—Flower Night—Blind Tomb—Thunder City, etc. Overall, it's a lighthearted slice-of-life story with occasional tomb raiding. Please don't take it too seriously.

2. No abuse of female characters, and the female characters feel incredibly well-matched!

3. It's an all-male series with a lot of male leads, roughly consisting of the four beauties of Wushan + the Zhang family's male group + the Cansang twins + a few villains from the Wu family + Qi Qiu + the aluminum triangle.

I absolutely do not admit that the author is a big fan of good-looking people.

The male protagonists are all pure, and female-oriented all-male romance novels cannot be anything but pure. Romance novels cannot contain BL (Boys' Love) elements; these are inviolable red lines.

4. Regarding the setting, the female lead has an irresistible charm that she is unaware of. When the male leads interact with her, they will witness indescribable scenes between themselves and the female lead, and they will be affected by it.

I can't go into details about this, but we can just leave it at that (blushes slightly).

In the beginning, the male leads all secretly harbored one-sided feelings for each other, so for a considerable period of time, the male leads were in a state of chaos, while the female lead thought they were getting along normally.

5. I have a lot of drafts saved up and will update regularly.

6. The first 12 chapters are solo storylines with the younger brother.

7. The female lead is in a passive state of ignorance in the early stages, which makes her seem a bit weak. However, she will take the lead in the middle and later stages. It is a process with ups and downs.

8. The male protagonists in this story occasionally swear. They are tomb raiders, and they swear in the original work, but they won't use "mother" or "mother" (I used it before, and I changed it once. If there are any omissions, please let me know, thank you). They also won't use "his father" or "his dad." It's unlikely that Wu Xie and the others would swear like that, so I've used something like "his*s" instead. Please stop calling me a "breastfeeding girl."

Alright, the author's gone crazy, and here's an OOC (out-of-character) moment for you all. (Heart emoji)

—Then let's begin the main text. Happy reading!—

Shen Mingchao never dreamed that she, an ordinary 18-year-old girl, would catch up with the trend of the times.

—I've transmigrated into a book!

Honestly, she hadn't read much of the Daomu Biji series; her cousin, Shen Mingyue, was the biggest fan.

She seriously suspected that the God of Transmigration had lost his sight and chosen the wrong person!

Otherwise, why would any cosplayers and fans out there choose her?!

I just can't figure it out.

When he was bored out of his mind, Shen Mingchao carefully reviewed his 18 years of life, trying to find something special about it.

Her parents died unexpectedly when she was one year old. She was adopted by her aunt's family and lived with her cousin who was the same age.

Does this configuration look familiar?

That's right, her cousin is a fan of rice (a type of rice cake), while she's a Harry Potter fan. After all, she's wearing Harry Potter clothes.

However, she was luckier than Harry.

Her aunt's family was well-off, and her aunt and uncle treated her like their own daughter. She and Shen Mingyue grew up together; they were cousins ​​and close friends with similar interests.

After the college entrance examination, they made plans for their graduation trip together.

She suggested wearing school uniforms to Universal Studios Beijing, while Shen Mingyue said she wanted to go to Changbai Mountain to participate in the 25th Rice Festival.

The accident happened on the day they went to Changbai Mountain.

When she arrived at Tianchi by shuttle bus, she felt dizzy as soon as she got off.

Fortunately, the weather in Changbai Mountain was clear that day, with no wind or fog, and when you looked up, Tianchi Lake was right in front of you.

The pool water was crystal clear, like a sapphire left behind by the gods.

Shen Mingchao was unconsciously stunned.

At that moment, all the surrounding noise suddenly disappeared, and all that remained in front of me was that pool of water, until a cool sensation swept over my whole body.

She fell into it.

The last thing I heard was a call.

"Every morning—"

The sound was naturally drowned out by the water. When Shen Mingchao came to his senses, he realized that he was not in the pool, but was in freefall in the air.

"ah--"

She screamed reflexively, her voice echoing through the empty mountains.

That's it, he's really done for. He died before even finishing university. Who wouldn't lament his untimely death?

Shen Mingchao closed his eyes tightly, not wanting to face the scene of himself falling to the ground.

He's not gone, he's not gone.

It passed quickly, just as I opened and closed my eyes.

After trying to reassure himself for a while, Shen Mingchao gradually realized something was wrong; the expected pain did not come.

Died so quickly?

Painless access to heaven?

Upon closer inspection, the sensations in the back and the back of the knees are particularly clear.

Shen Mingchao immediately realized that someone had caught him as he fell from mid-air.

Great, this plot is very novel-like. The 'female lead' falls from the sky and lands right in the 'male lead's' arms. The two of them, accompanied by a tender background music, twirl in a waltz among the falling petals. The moment their eyes meet, they are attracted by each other's stunning appearance and fall in love at first sight!

Thinking of this, Shen Mingchao opened his eyes shakily, ready to see the 'male lead' who caught him.

The surrounding light was dim, and Shen Mingchao could only make out a general outline. Before she could see it more clearly, the man in front of her suddenly withdrew his arm.

She even took a step back abruptly, as if she were a hot potato.

Shen Mingchao had no time to react and crashed hard to the ground. A sharp pain shot through her lower back, indicating she had hit a rock; the pain almost brought her to tears.

She wants to call the police.

This isn't the male lead; this is clearly murder!

The girl's scream of pain reached his ears, and the man beside him finally came to his senses.

Seeing the girl rolling on the ground clutching her waist, he pursed his thin lips into a straight line, a barely perceptible hint of guilt flashing in his eyes. He stepped forward, ready to help her up first.

But as soon as his hand touched the girl's forearm, he saw those inexplicable scenes again.

In the scene, the woman extends her slender arm, pressing him downwards with an irresistible force...

His mind exploded instantly, a strange heat rising up, giving him goosebumps.

Before the scene went any further, he withdrew his hand in time, calming his increasingly unsteady breathing.

Shen Mingchao looked completely bewildered.

Seeing the other person's unusual behavior, she still politely said, "Thank you for saving me. My name is Shen Mingchao. Do you have mysophobia?"

After saying this, there was a long silence.

The atmosphere between the two became increasingly awkward.

Using the faint light overhead, Shen Mingchao squinted and finally made out the face of the person opposite him.

He had black hair and black eyes, a cool and aloof demeanor, and handsome features. He was also wearing a hoodie.

If it weren't for the faint blush on his cheeks, Shen Mingchao would have almost blurted out: "You look like Zhang Qilin from The Lost Tomb."

She couldn't resist Shen Mingyue's constant nagging, especially the five people known as the "Tender Beef Five Squares." She faced a room full of grains every day, so it was hard for her not to be familiar with them.

However, despite their resemblance, she knew that Zhang Qilan was aloof and unapproachable; how could someone as unattainable as him blush? That would be out of character.

Besides, he's the one who fell, and he's the one who got hurt. He's blushing like a teapot!

Shen Mingchao, in a friendly manner, asked again, "Would it be convenient for you to tell me who you are? And where is this place?"

There was a moment of silence, followed by a pleasant male voice.

"Zhang Qiyu".

"This is inside the Bronze Gate of Changbai Mountain."

Shen Mingchao: "..."

(‧_‧？)

The Iranian missile, with a single flap, precisely targeted and shattered Shen Mingchao's mind.

W-what? Who do you say you are? Where is this place?!

What a joke! What Zhang Qilu bronze door? She must still be asleep.

Yes, I'm dreaming.

Shen Mingchao found a reasonable excuse for himself and was determined to wake up.

She first pressed her injured lower back.

Ouch...that hurts. It'll probably turn blue.

It hurt too much, so Shen Mingchao abandoned the pain-induced wake-up method and instead pinched his nose with one hand and covered his mouth with the other, intending to use the suffocation-induced wake-up method.

Shen Mingchao silently counted in his mind, barely managing to hold on for a minute before he could no longer hold on and abruptly let go, gasping for breath like a fish out of air.

Once she recovered and looked around at her unchanged surroundings, she had to admit that this was not a dream.

To say this is the world of Daomu Biji is still a bit hard to believe; it's probably some kind of prank game.

Hey!

Shen Mingchao had a flash of inspiration.

They came to participate in the 817 Rice Festival, so it's not impossible that the organizers would arrange for a lucky audience member to travel back in time to the world of Daomu Biji.

Shen Mingchao convinced himself once again.

She stared at the person dressed as "Zhang Qilin" opposite her and felt that everything made sense.

"You're a cosplay teacher, right? Teacher, what's your name? Can I collect your photos? This is an official event, right? It looks really real; it really scared me earlier. Are you guys filming a show? Where's the exit? I need to find my cousin."

Shen Mingchao rattled off a long string of words, but they all vanished without a trace, receiving no response whatsoever.

Zhang Qilin squinted his eyes.

Is this person... mentally ill?
