The Metaphysical Little Beggar's Rebirth: I'm an Unlucky Star

Xiong Qi carefully took the hedgehog, felt its weak breathing and trembling body, and his heart was filled with pity. Then, he took the hedgehog away from the dangerous place and took him back home so that he could take better care of it and treat its injuries.

Under Xiong Qi's meticulous care, the hedgehog's physical condition got better day by day, the wounds on its body slowly healed, and its originally skinny body gradually became rounder.

On the day the hedgehog fully recovered, he suddenly spoke: "Xiong Qi, thank you for saving me. To repay you, I can help you change your life." The hedgehog looked at the utterly spartan state of Xiong Qi's home, a mixture of emotions welling up in his heart. The room contained only a shabby bed, a small table, and a few chairs, and the walls were stained. The whole place was filled with an air of age and oppression, as if time had stood still. Yet, even in this impoverished environment, Xiong Qi was willing to trade mountain produce for an animal's life.

When Xiong Qi heard this, he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. He stared at the hedgehog in front of him with wide eyes, and an indescribable excitement and confusion surged in his heart.

However, Xiong Qi didn't let his excitement and doubts get the better of him. He quickly calmed down and began to consider the possibilities behind this incident. He recalled the legends he had heard about the White Fairy. Could he have really saved a legendary half-immortal? And was this hedgehog the White Fairy they spoke of?

The more Xiong Qi thought about it, the more incredible it seemed to him. But at the same time, he was also filled with curiosity about Bai Xian's abilities. He knew that if he seized this opportunity properly, perhaps he could change his ordinary life. So, he took a deep breath, gathered his thoughts, and said to Bai Xian, "Thank you very much for your kindness, but I'd like to know exactly how I can make this wish come true."

Bai Xian seemed to see through Xiong Qi's thoughts, smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, everything will be arranged. From now on, you just need to follow my instructions and believe that wealth will naturally come to you. However, remember one thing, success does not come overnight, it also requires your effort and patience." Xiong Qi nodded repeatedly, indicating that he was willing to follow Bai Xian's teachings.

In the days that followed, Xiong Qi devoted himself to Bai Xian's teachings, embarking on a journey to learn medicine. Not long after, at Bai Xian's urging, he nervously applied for a position at a nearby clinic. To his surprise, he was instantly successful, securing the position. From then on, he busied himself with treating and saving lives.

Over time, people gradually came to appreciate Xiong Qi's medical skills. This bolstered his confidence, and he decided to return home and open his own small clinic. The clinic thrived, and he could handle common ailments with ease. However, when faced with more difficult and complex cases, he would request the Baixian spirit to possess him and provide assistance.

Days passed like flowing water. Xiong Qi's fame spread far and wide, and his life became better and better. However, for Xiong Qi, the most precious thing was not fame and fortune, but the special emotional bond between him and Bai Xian.

Xiong Qi once saved Bai Xian's life, but now their relationship has gone beyond simple favor and is more like a close family. They support and care for each other and have spent countless sunrises and sunsets together.

Xiong Qi knows that his achievements today are inseparable from Bai Xian's continuous support. Bai Xian also understands that it is because of Xiong Qi's company that his life has become so fulfilling and meaningful.

But there are always unexpected things happening in this world.

Xiong Qi's life has improved, but he still maintains his frugal habits. He always personally searches for and gathers medicinal herbs that can be found in the mountains. On this day, Xiong Qi got up early as usual, ready to go up the mountain to collect herbs.

The morning sun shone brightly, bringing warmth and vitality to the forest. Carrying a bamboo basket on his back and a sickle in hand, Xiong Qi set out on a familiar mountain path. Along the way, he carefully observed the surrounding vegetation, searching for various precious medicinal herbs.

As he walked along the winding path, the cheerful singing of birds and the rustling of leaves in the breeze filled his ears. Immersed in the beauty of nature, Xiong Qi felt a profound sense of well-being. He knew the value of these natural herbs; each one had the potential to be a cure for an ailment.

Before he knew it, Xiong Qi arrived at a lush patch of medicinal herbs. He bent down and carefully cut each herb with his sickle, placing it in a bamboo basket. His movements were skillful and precise, as if he had become one with the forest.

As time passed, the basket gradually filled with more herbs. Xiong Qi didn't rush home, but continued to venture deeper into the forest, searching for more. He knew that only through hard work could he reap greater rewards.

Xiong Qi wandered further and further into the forest, so absorbed in his search for herbs that he hadn't realized he'd reached the mountain's interior. When he looked up again, he was struck by the unfamiliarity of his surroundings. Although he'd been to this mountain countless times, he felt lost.

His heartbeat began to accelerate, and beads of sweat formed on his forehead. Anxiety gradually took over him. He tried to recall the route he had taken, but his mind was blank. No matter which direction he looked, there was only dense forest and winding paths. The familiar path down the mountain was nowhere to be found.

Xiong Qi couldn't help but feel a wave of panic. He began wandering aimlessly through the forest, hoping to find some clue or landmark. He carefully avoided thorns and rocks, occasionally stopping to listen to the sounds around him, and sometimes looking up to observe the shape of the treetops, trying to find a clue. However, everything seemed so strange, as if the entire forest was against him.

As time passed, Xiong Qi's mood grew heavier. He knew that getting lost in such an environment was extremely dangerous, and if he couldn't find a way out in time, the consequences could be disastrous.

Xiong Qi wandered aimlessly through the mountains, his mind filled with confusion and bewilderment. Suddenly, his eyes were drawn to a cave not far ahead. The cave seemed mysterious, hidden within the dense woods. It would have been difficult to spot unless one approached closely. Xiong Qi was deeply puzzled, having never heard of such a place on this mountain before. He couldn't help but wonder what secrets this cave held.
