Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

"What happen to you guys?"

Chi Yuzhao waved to them: "Come here, Chixing said he can take you down the mountain together."

As a minor ghost, Chi Yuzhao knew how much these ghosts wanted to go down the mountain; this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, perhaps their only chance.

The little devils were overjoyed upon hearing the news; they simply wanted Chi Yuzhao to deliver their message.

But if they could get out on their own, there would be no need to send messages; they could find their own way home.

"Star, can you burn me and take me home?" Chi Yuzhao pointed in a direction.

Akahoshi took his hand and asked him to lead her there.

Under a large locust tree, the branches swayed in the wind, including a withered vine on one of the branches and a tattered cloth of indeterminate color on the vine.

"Hey, don't be scared." Chi Yuzhao pulled him to a stop a short distance away, informing Chi Xing beforehand.

"Those are my remains, uh, they might not look very nice, but don't be afraid."

Chi Xing's eyes stung with tears. He hugged Chi Yuzhao tightly, but he couldn't even muster the strength to act cute. He really wanted to slaughter the entire Seven Locust Village without a care in the world; there wasn't a single good person there.

With her face buried in Chi Yuzhao's shoulder, Chi Xing's voice was hoarse: "I don't mind, you're beautiful no matter what."

"Haha, you're really good at fooling people. How can a skeleton look good?"

Chi Yuzhao couldn't bear to see him sad. In her heart, Chi Xing was a little kid much younger than her, and little kids need to be coaxed.

"I'm not sad. It's been so long, I've already forgotten about it."

Even after arriving here and seeing her own remains, Chi Yuzhao still remembered that she couldn't get out, that she got lost in the mountains and forests, and that she stopped at this locust tree.

He heard the howls of wolves, and lacking the courage to face them, he chose to hang himself under the locust tree.

What was he thinking at the time?

He thought that as long as he was hung high enough that the wolves couldn't reach him, his body would still be intact.

He heard that people with physical disabilities can't find their way home, and he wanted to go home.

His body remained hanging there for a long time until the vine and the fabric of his coat rotted and broke due to wind and sun, and his remains finally fell to the ground.

As Akahoshi approached, the stark white skeleton was lightly buried among withered branches and leaves. To ordinary people, this skeleton was terrifying, but Akahoshi knelt down and gently held it in his arms.

Chi Yuzhao followed beside him, smiling as she rubbed her face against him.

"Thank you, Akahoshi."

Akahoshi gently swept the withered leaves off the bones, and with a flick of his divine power, the soil on the bones disappeared.

He sighed, took out an exquisite white jade jar from the system space, and the bones turned to ash in the blink of an eye and were all put into the white jade jar.

"When I die, I want to be buried with Ayu," Chixing said.

A sweet feeling washed over Chi Yuzhao, and he smiled, revealing his white teeth: "Hehe, it's a deal, but I don't want you to die so soon. You have to live to be a hundred years old."

Akahoshi promised him, "Then you must stay by my side forever."

Chi Yuzhao hugged him: "Yes, we have already consummated our marriage, I will not abandon you after starting something."

Chi Yuzhao, a true man, would never act like a scumbag. In his mind, if he did something, he would take full responsibility, unless Chixing didn't want him anymore.

Akahoshi is human, and he is a demon. If Akahoshi doesn't want him, he won't blame Akahoshi, and he will leave quietly.

"Let's go, it's time to go down the mountain."

Chixing held the jar in his arms, thought for a moment, and then put it into his spatial storage.

The other ghosts followed behind. Chi Xing led Chi Yu Zhao out of the forest and, following the route given by 250, successfully broke through the fog.

Only then did we see the mountain, several stories high, with relatively short trees on top.

"No wonder we couldn't find our way out. It turns out they were thrown down from above. If it weren't for the dry leaves below, we would have died when we fell."

Xiao Min floated up after Chi Xing and Chi Yuzhao, and the other little devils glanced at the height and immediately followed.

They didn't let Chixing find their remains, firstly because the distance was too far, and secondly because they didn't want to trouble Chixing. They didn't know that Chixing had taken away Chi Yuzhao's ashes.

They assumed he had buried Chi Yuzhao's remains, since it wouldn't be appropriate to take them out anyway.

After walking for a while, light shone into the forest, and Chixing bestowed divine power upon them.

"From now on, you will be able to move freely in the sunlight, and you won't be affected during the day," Akahoshi said.

The little devils were overjoyed and thanked him.

Several cars were parked on the side of the road. The handsome man inside looked grim, and the voice of a bodyguard could be heard from outside the car window.

"Young master, all of our tires have blown out."

Another bodyguard advised, "Why don't we go back? Young Master Chi is still in the village; we can ask him for help."

"No way," Chi Yi immediately rejected.

His brows were furrowed, and there was a cut on the corner of his mouth as he kept replaying the events of the previous night in his mind.

He was actually... by that man from the village...

The mere thought of Miao Bai's face made Chi Yi want to vomit, and he just wanted to leave immediately.

As for Chi Mingzhao, he couldn't face it.

After much thought, I realized that the only solution was to escape.

The bodyguards were in a panic. They had just changed to a spare tire when, with a "pop," the good spare tire also punctured, and all the air escaped.

bodyguard:……

"It's like we've encountered a ghost!" An older driver couldn't help but point around and curse, though it was unclear what he was cursing.

Bodyguard Xiao Chen rubbed his arms, his skin crawling with goosebumps, and stammered, "Old Chen, please stop cursing, I'm scared."

Old Chen rolled his eyes: "This village must be unclean. The young master got sick after only a few days. Look how pale his face is."

"And this car."

Xiao Chen and the other bodyguards felt a chill run down their spines. They looked around and saw a bamboo forest. Sunlight shone through the gaps in the bamboo leaves, but a cold wind still blew in, making their backs feel cold.

"Then let's go back first, I'll carry the young master on my back."

It didn't seem like they were asking for Chi Yi's opinion at all, because Chi Yi had already started to get hot.

"Master."

When Xiao Chen opened the car door and touched his arm, he realized that the man was burning up with fever. Startled, he exclaimed, "Young Master, are you alright?"

"He has a fever, quickly carry him back to the village doctor."

Bodyguard Xiao Zheng: "How about we find the village doctor? Or should we find Young Master Chi? Hurry up and go find a doctor."

"What happened? Do you need help?" A clear and pleasant voice came from inside.

The bodyguards looked over and saw a young man dressed in simple casual clothes, standing not far from them with a backpack.

Xiao Chen looked around, then shuddered: "You, where did you come from? I didn't see you just now."

The others moved away from him and stood protectively around Chi Yi.

Chi Yi struggled to open his eyes, and in a daze, he seemed to see a familiar face, like...

"Don't be afraid, I came out from that side path and just happened to be here looking for my relatives."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, there was a small path there, seemingly leading into the mountains.

"This guy seems quite ill. I have some medicine here, would you like some?"
