"Is this the ancient times?" Gu Fan, having successfully traveled to the ancient past through the space-time door, found himself in an unfortunate location—right in the middle of a wilderness. This instantly gave him a sense of despair, as he was in a completely unfamiliar place with no idea where he actually was.
Fortunately, Gu Fan encountered someone going up the mountain to chop wood. After a brief inquiry, he learned where the nearest small town was and immediately sprinted towards it.
No matter the era, the primary need was money. Gu Fan didn't have the currency of the ancient times, but he knew that gold and silver were still in use. So he once again hit up Du Jun for a favor, asking him for a few gold bricks.
After reaching the small city, Gu Fan went to a money exchange and traded the gold bricks for a large amount of silver. With this, his concern for living in ancient times could be resolved. The remaining task was to locate Lin Xi.
