When we talk about crossing over, what are we talking about?

  My name is Ye Zhenzhen, a third-year female student. Today is my 20th birthday.

  Twenty years old, it doesn't seem like a big deal when you say it. But for me, it has a very significant meaning.

  The most important point is that Article 6 of the Marriage Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates: "The age at which a man can marry shall not be less than twenty-two years, and the age at which a woman can marry shall not be less than twenty years."

  That is to say, twenty years old is my legal marriage age. I can get married now!

  This is a ritual for me because I have been looking forward to this day for eight years.

  Twenty minus eight equals twelve, which means that I had a crush on him since I was twelve years old and decided to formally meet him on my twentieth birthday.

  Actually, I have been preparing for this day for eight whole years!

  Maybe you're saying, is it worth it? If you like her, go chase after her! Little loli, isn't she more competitive?

  Speaking of this, I can only sigh. Because, my male god, he is not in my world at all. If I don't try my best, how can I possibly see him?

  My male god, his name is Nie Qiuyuan.

  Actually, I've only seen his portrait. Not a photo, but a portrait. And I don't know who painted it so well. In short, I took one look and fell into it. Later, after reading his resume, I couldn't extricate myself.

  My male god is handsome and elegant, full of charm, born in 605 AD, served as the Premier of the State Council.

  What? A prime minister born in 605? That is... Tang Dynasty?

  No mistake. The one I fell in love with at first sight is that handsome guy, Nie Qiuyu, who became the Prime Minister during the Tang Taizong era. So, I decided to travel back to the Tang Dynasty today to find him.

  You might say: Nonsense! At that time, the prime ministers were Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

  I'm saying, no, no, no! Just because you don't know about it doesn't mean that person doesn't exist. And besides, do I want to travel through time for nothing?! Is traveling through time just a joke?! If there's no such person, what's the point of me going through all this trouble?!

  So, my wish is simple, go to the Tang Dynasty, find Nie Qiuyuan, and marry him, spend a lifetime together.

  So at first I was just talking nonsense. What was I waiting for the legal marriage age? It's just that to achieve this goal, eight years is still a bit short.

  So, when we talk about crossing over, what are we talking about?

  After watching many time-travel dramas, I asked myself: If one day you traveled through time and could only bring one thing with you, what would you most want to bring?

  My answer is contact lenses.

  As for how I became nearsighted, that's a story for later. However, after crossing over to ancient times, I found out that not being able to see clearly is really inconvenient, it's basically no quality of life at all, and it's also very disadvantageous when you need to escape.

  I don't know if you've seen a movie called "The Mummy", but there's this one scene where the main character is nearsighted, and even when the mummy is right behind him, he still can't see it clearly. He even thinks about going up to touch it. Ugh, that scene left such a deep impression on me that I had nightmares that night. I think it's better to die with some awareness rather than not knowing what's happening at all.

  If you're wearing frame glasses, it would be very strange in ancient times, inconvenient in many ways, and most importantly, not pretty enough! Imagine wearing traditional clothes but with a pair of frame glasses, oh my god!

  But contact lenses have a short lifespan and require care solution, which is also unrealistic.

  So at the age of 18, I went to the hospital and had surgery for nearsightedness, once and for all.

  Although I'm probably using someone else's body after crossing over, but what if my thoughts can be brought along, and what if my eyesight is also brought along?!

  Look, I'm just such a meticulous thinker! People like me will definitely achieve their goals.

  Now let's talk about how my male god changed my life.

  From the day I fell in love with him, I made up my mind that from today on, every minute and every second, I will work hard for the future to see him one day.

  I started from diligently studying and reading, thirstily absorbing modern scientific and cultural knowledge, especially making an effort to memorize the history after the Tang Dynasty. These things seem ordinary today, but they can make your temperament increase, and add more topics for conversation during leisure time. However, in ancient times, it was different, any one of these could become the capital for a secure life.

  From middle school to university, I sailed smoothly, and my classmates looked at me with eyes that seemed to be watching a non-human chicken blood type, pointing and whispering behind my back. This girl is absolutely a study tyrant! Doesn't she sleep at all?! Humph, how can sparrows understand the great ambitions of swans? Those perfect exam scores are just by-products at best. The power of love is infinite!

  In this way, all sorts of knowledge were crammed into my small brain. My IQ soared from 129 to 169.

  Maybe you're thinking: nonsense, IQ tests only range from 46 to 160!

  Allow me to sneer for a moment. If Xie Erduo's IQ is 187, why can't mine be 169? Moreover, this 169 is just what I think it is anyway.

  Actually, for my male god, I really suffered a lot of hardships.

  For example, in ancient times, to live a good life, one must have good physical quality and also know some martial arts. Every morning, I insist on running, and from the age of 12, I started learning Wing Chun, which is one of the most practical Chinese martial arts. I even won an award in the national martial arts competition!

  I returned a book called "The Wiseman Survival Handbook". A British Royal Special Forces instructor's authoritative course, Amazon's five-star ranking, teaches you how to survive in the wild, in any weather, and under any conditions. One book, one knife, solves all survival problems, must-have for drivers, hikers, travelers, and adventurers! Every year, I participate in outdoor survival training and emergency rescue training camps, which makes me feel like a special forces soldier.

  Moreover, my ultimate goal is to capture the heart of a male god. However, people say that to capture a man's heart, one must first capture his stomach. So, I've put in great effort to learn cooking, and given the chance, I can conquer you with dishes from around the world!

  There are actually some very practical problems that are a bit embarrassing to mention. I considered this time-traveling trip in such detail that I even studied some very professional issues on my own: how to make toilet paper, how to make sanitary napkins, and the pattern-making for underwear and bras.

  I think that even without a source of income, relying on this exceptional skill of making toilet paper should also be enough to make a living.

  So I study so hard, can't I avoid being nearsighted?

  Now I just want to ask a weak question: Are my golden fingers enough?!

  Let's talk about how to travel through time again.

  Crossing over is not as simple as Guo Degang said, touching the electric door, "pants" and passing through. That's looking for death, it can only be crossed into Guan Gong, raising his head to see the two characters on the signboard - "Maicheng". However, crossing over is also not as difficult as it was performed on TV, requiring one to die once, coincidentally, one in a hundred million, in order to have one.

  After my careful study and search, I finally figured it out. It turns out that time travel can be achieved by drinking a certain medicine. Once you fall asleep, you'll have traveled through time, and while you may spend a lifetime on the other side, here you might not even have spent ten minutes.

  There are several examples of this kind. In ancient times, there was a legend called "A Dream of Yellow Millet", which tells the story of a man named Lu Sheng who stayed at an inn in Handan and had a dream that he lived a life of wealth and glory, only to wake up before his millet porridge was even cooked. This is actually a record of a time-traveling incident.

  There is a foreign movie called "Somewhere in Time", the heroine is old and beautiful. The story tells of a playwright who was deeply attracted to a 1912 actress's photo, unable to extricate himself. He used self-hypnosis to travel back from 1972 to 1912, finally finding the actress and having a romantic relationship with her.

  Although I count it as sixty years from 1912 to 1972, but that's not important. What's important is that this playwright, how much he resembles me now! But he didn't prepare at all seriously, no wonder there was no happy ending!

  There's also a movie called "Inception", the director is absolutely brilliant. He casually mentioned one point, if you die over there, you can immediately return to reality.

  However, there is also a deception in "Inception". The limit of the human body for crossing over is only once. In other words, it's impossible to go back and forth repeatedly. I only have one chance, only one precious opportunity, to capture my beloved male god. Otherwise, why would I need to learn so much?

  Actually, it took me eight years to find the mysterious person who makes the time-traveling potion. The mysterious person's story is an ultimate secret and won't be revealed here. If you want to travel through time, go find them yourself. Hurry up and raise your IQ to 169, eight years will be enough.

  Why bring up IQ again? Because when crossing over, the higher your IQ, the more conditions you can propose. Because crossing over is like drinking from the River of Forgetfulness, my IQ allows me to remember only three conditions during the journey. These three conditions will definitely come true after crossing over!

  But three conditions, how can that be enough?!

  After careful consideration, I have chosen the following three conditions:

  Firstly, according to historical records, Nie Qiuyuan got married at the age of 22. So I think I'll travel back to when he was 21 years old. This way, he's not yet married and I won't have to wait too long.

  Secondly, I hope that he and I are well-matched in age, beautiful as a flower, and physically healthy. These can only be bestowed by heaven, and efforts made later on will be of no use, so they must be present.

  Thirdly, let me be closer to him, or else I will spend my whole life searching for him.

  That's it then. Male god, wait for me, I'm coming!

  Maybe you're saying: What's up with this? This isn't scientific!

  Let me laugh loudly three times: Ha! Ha! Ha!

  Come on, I'm about to travel through time and space, and you're actually talking to me about science?!
