Amnesia?

Noticing that the way the woman spoke was a bit strange, Xu Xiang asked, "Then... What year is it now?"

"It is the fourth year of the Xi era."

Surprised by her answer, Xu Xiang quickly asked, "Fourth year of the Xi era? Isn't it 5.257 after the great explosion?"

This time, she clearly saw the confusion in the eyes of the woman and the boy. Seeing her surprised look and listening to her strange questions, the woman asked with a hint of worry in her tone.

"Young lady, are you alright? Did you hit your head when you fell?"

Xu Xiang lowered her head as her mind moved at fast speed. After a few minutes, she finally accepted her new reality.

'What kind of shitty luck is this? Why after I regressed from the apocalyptic world, I fell into this strange world? Going back to the past is not enough, God even gives me the privilege of transmigration to another world? After 15 years of hard work collecting materials to prepare for the apocalypse, now I got thrown into this world unprepared. What should I do now?'

Seeing that she didn't answer, the woman called her again. "Young lady?"

Hearing the woman's call, Xu Xiang came to her senses. Touching the back of her head, she grimaced in pain.

"Shh!"

"It seems that you hurt your head." The woman said when she saw the blood on Xu Xiang's palm.

Looking at her bloody palm, a thought suddenly popped into her mind. She looked up at the woman and said, "Madam, I seem to lose most of my memories. Can you tell me where the nearest city or town is?"

The woman realized that she might have lost part of her memory, and looked at her with pity. After a moment of silence, she sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I don't know either. To tell you the truth, my family is in exile and we are on our way to the northern border."

"Exile?" 'Does that mean they are criminals?'

The boy saw her eyes flickered and said, "We are not criminals, but we were framed."

"Er Lang, don't say anything."

Before the boy could say more, the woman stopped him immediately. Xu Xiang thought for a while and said, "Madam, since I have no destination for now, can you let me follow you for a while? I will leave after deciding where to go."

"This…"

Sensing the hesitation of the woman, she quickly said, "I won't disturb your family."

The woman thought for a while and nodded. "Fine. You can follow us, but we have no more food or water. I'm afraid you'll have to find food yourself."

Xu Xiang nodded at her and said, "Naturally. I'm already very grateful to you for saving my life. How can I ask you to provide me with food? I will return this life saving grace in the future. Thank you very much, Madam."

Hearing her polite words, the woman got up and helped her up, and said, "I just woke you up, and didn't help much. You don't have to pay me back at all. My name is Wen Wan, and you can call me Aunt Wen in the future. This is my second son, Xiao Han. Young lady, do you still remember your name?"

"Um. My name is Xu Xiang." She replied as they walked out from the barren forest.

Walking out of the forest, Xu Xiang saw many people wearing clothes with the same design as Aunt Wen and Xiao Han. Looking at their clothes that were very different from her own, she realized that she had really traveled to another world. On their way back to Aunt Wen's family, Xu Xiang sensed that many people were looking at her with malicious eyes.

'Looks like I need to change my clothes as soon as possible. But... where can I find the clothes? The material looks like coarse cloth made from tree bark.'

Just as she was thinking, Xiao Han's voice came from behind her. "That's my father, elder sister and elder brother."

Xu Xiang moved her eyes away from those people and saw an elegant middle-aged man, a beautiful young woman, and an unconscious handsome man. She looked at Xiao Han and his mother's faces for a while, and couldn't help but comment in her heart.

'This family looks really extraordinary. Their genes must be top-notch. Travel with them, I'm sure that no one will notice me. At best, they'll think I'm their servant with how ordinary I look.'

When they approached the others, the beautiful young woman stood up and said, "Mother, Er Lang, you are back. Have you found any medicinal herbs for my elder brother?"

Xiao Han shook his head and said sadly: "There is nothing left in the forest. Not even a stalk of grass."

Upon receiving his answer, the beautiful young woman's eyes turned slightly red. She turned quickly and wiped her tears with her sleeve. After a brief silence, the elegant middle-aged man finally noticed Xu Xiang standing behind his wife and youngest son.

He looked at his wife with a question in his eyes and said, "This is…"

Wen Wan recovered from her sadness and smiled at her husband. "My husband, I found this young lady fainted in the forest. She bumped her head and forgot about her past. Can she follow us until she decides where to go?"

Seeing the vigilance in the middle-aged man's eyes, Xu Xiang stepped forward and smiled at him.

"Hello, Uncle. My name is Xu Xiang. I don't remember anything except my name. Thanks to Aunt Wen's life-saving grace, I can stand here. I promise you, I will not drag your family or be a burden to your family. I just need time to decide what to do from now on."

The beautiful young woman looked at Xu Xiang and observed her from top to bottom for a while, before saying, "Father, she seems to be about the same age as me. How about we let her stay with us for a while? She is also a pitiful person."
