Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

After saying that, he looked at Wang Zhou and said:

"Speaking of which, this matter is also related to you. If someone hadn't said that he seduced you, then Old Lady Chen wouldn't have been able to sell him."

It has been a long time since the village has seen the buying and selling of young men and women. In the past, the villagers would have condemned Old Lady Chen, and the village chief would have intervened to stop it.

But this time it's different. If word gets out that this guy is seducing a man, it will damage the village's reputation. The young men in the village still need to get married and find wives, and they can't let Liu Yu affect them.

Da Niu wasn't married yet, so he naturally felt that the village's reputation was more important. He patted Wang Zhou on the shoulder and said:

"Maybe he really did fall into the water by accident. Scholar Wang, you should go to the river less often in the future, lest you accuse others of seducing you."

After he finished speaking, he sighed, shook his head, and left.

Wang Zhou gripped the folding fan tightly, dissatisfied with what Da Niu had said, and even more confused as to why everything was different from what happened in the book.

Recalling the contents of the book, Wang Zhou confirmed that the book seemed to have mentioned this hunter, but it seemed that he had died in a fall.

Could it be that he's still alive and has preemptively bought Liu Yu?

Wang Zhou never expected things to turn out this way; his original plan had been ruined by this Red Hunter.

Wang Zhou returned home clutching the silver coins. On his desk lay the original plot he had written when he first transmigrated into the book.

Yes, Wang Zhou is actually a transmigrator from another book.

He transmigrated into a novel called "The Farmer's Divine Doctor" (a novel without a romantic pairing).

The original owner of this body, Wang Zhou, was just a useless scholar who was twenty-eight years old this year and still hadn't passed the imperial examination.

The protagonist, Liu Yu, is an ugly boy from Lishu Village. He lost his father at a young age, and his mother was frail. He had to shoulder the burden of the whole family at a young age.

The villagers were superstitious and said he was a cursed loner who couldn't afford to go to school, so Liu Guihua taught him to recognize a few simple characters.

Due to the harsh conditions, he could only guess the contents of the medical book word by word. Later, with the help of his father's friend, he learned more words and herbs.

For a long time, Liu Yu went up the mountain to dig for medicinal herbs. Later, he even dug up ginseng. After making money, he moved to the county town with Liu Guihua.

He had a great talent for medicine and quickly became a resident doctor at a clinic in the county town. Later, he became a legendary doctor.

He developed a health-preserving pill for his mother, which was said to prolong life. Even the crown prince came to him for the medicine.

After arriving here, Wang Zhou tried every means to get close to this ugly protagonist.

He had seen Liu Yu from afar; she was truly ugly, dark-skinned and thin, about 1.75 meters tall, standing there like a withered bamboo pole. Wang Zhou immediately gave up the idea of ​​marrying Liu Yu.

The only solution is to ruin his reputation and then have Chen Ziming, the eldest son of the Chen family, persuade his grandmother, Old Lady Chen, to sell Liu Yu. Then he can buy Liu Yu to be his page.

Liu Yu will be grateful to him in the future, and he will use any leading role to his advantage.

Wang Zhou believed himself to be the protagonist, as he was a transmigrator who knew everything about the future.

But he didn't understand how things had turned out this way today.

Chi Xing carried Liu Yu to the village entrance, just as the village's oxcart hadn't yet gone to town.

The oxcart driver was a man of about seventeen or eighteen years old named Shuanzi.

Seeing Akahoshi carrying someone over, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Akahoshi, what happened?"

Chi Xing frowned and said, "We're going to the town clinic now; my husband is sick."

Shuanzi didn't have time to ask when he had married his husband before he hurriedly got on the oxcart.

"Come up quickly."

Human life was at stake, and Shuanzi couldn't wait for the others.

Chi Xing carried Liu Yu onto the oxcart, reached out and touched his forehead; it was frighteningly hot.

Regardless of whether Shuanzi would see it, Chixing held Liu Yu's hand in his palm and channeled some divine power into him, making sure he didn't burn the person.

Shuanzi, driving the cart, couldn't help but ask, "Brother Chi, when did you get a husband?"

Shuanzi knew Chixing. A few years ago, he was bitten by a snake while climbing the mountain, and Chixing saved him and carried him down the mountain.

Shuanzi always regarded Chixing as his savior and was not afraid of him. However, he had never heard that Chixing had married.

Akahoshi told the truth: "Just now."

It wasn't until the oxcart arrived at the town's clinic and Chixing carried the person off the cart that Shuanzi could clearly see the boy's face.

He was surprised, never expecting that Brother Chi would marry Liu Yu.

The village is large, and not everyone knows what happened in front of Liu's house that morning. Shuanzi doesn't know that Liu Yu has been sold.

However, seeing that Brother Chi had married, Shuanzi was relieved.

Liu Yu was very thin, and Chi Xing carried her the whole way without feeling tired. Even after entering the clinic, he carried her while the doctor examined her.

He used some divine power to heal her, and Liu Yu's complexion improved a little, but it was still very hot.

The doctor arranged a bed for Liu Yu, asked the apprentice in the clinic to decoct the medicine, and brought over cold water and a cloth, asking Chi Xing to help lower her fever.

Liu Yu's condition was not good, so Chi Xing simply told Shuanzi to go back first to avoid waiting any longer.

Chi Xing stayed by Liu Yu's side until the sun went down, and Liu Yu's body temperature returned to normal.

The doctor prescribed several doses of medicine, which cost nearly one tael of silver in total.

With one hand, Chi Xing lifted Liu Yu up vertically, while with the other hand, she held the medicine and half-embraced his back.

The man seemed light as a feather, and all the way back, Akahoshi kept thinking about how to restore his body.

My wife is better off a little chubby. I'll hunt a pheasant for her when we get back to nourish her.

Liu Yu was in a daze, not knowing where she was. The warm wall in front of her was swaying back and forth.

His hand moved, grabbing a hard... piece of meat?

Hearing heavy breathing, Liu Yu's mind snapped back to reality. Opening her eyes, she saw her hand gripping someone's muscle.

Looking around again, I realized we were on a mountain road.

Suddenly I realized I was in someone's arms, being held like a baby...

Liu Yu didn't even dare to look up at the man's face, and lowered her head and closed her eyes again, hoping that it was all a nightmare.

A soft laugh suddenly came from above, and Liu Yu blushed from head to toe.

Akahoshi looked at the person pretending to be a quail and wanted to tease him, so he simply kept quiet and continued walking forward.

This is the mountain path that Akahoshi usually takes when selling his game. Unlike the path taken by oxcart, this route goes directly to his house without passing through the village.

After walking for a while, Liu Yu hesitated before speaking, his voice very soft, but Chi Xing still heard him.

He said, "Put me down, put me down."

Liu Yu recalled signing the indenture before she fainted and guessed that she had been sold, and that the man who bought her must be the one who bought her.

Akahoshi tightened her grip, holding him even closer, and said in a harsh voice, "What if I don't let go?"

Liu Yu: ...

"Then, then we won't let go..."

Her tone was pitiful, as if she was about to cry at any moment.

He glanced discreetly at his distance from the ground, then at the man's strong, muscular arms.
