Wang Laizi, a scoundrel in the village, idled away his days stealing chickens and dogs. Knowing that the original owner of the body was just an orphan girl who owned a small courtyard with three mud-brick houses and two acres of land, he set his sights on her.

One day, when the original owner returned from his own field, it was already late. He was walking on a deserted country path when he was unexpectedly harassed by Wang Laizi, who wanted to force himself on him.

The original owner struggled and resisted, and in the struggle, she picked up a stone and hit Wang Laizi on the head. Wang Laizi instantly fell to the ground unconscious, his head covered in blood.

In a panic, the original owner thought he had killed someone and fled in a panic, not daring to go home.

He had no choice but to leave his hometown alone and become a beggar who made a living by begging everywhere.

Finally, he died in the dead of winter.

Thinking of this, Ziyue narrowed her eyes. Ha!

When Ziyue entered the world, it was about two months after the original owner's adoptive parents left. During this time, the original owner did not go out often and was still in the grief of suddenly losing his parents.

Ziyue didn't plan to stay in this village because she had changed too much. Her neighbors had all watched her grow up and were too familiar with her. If her changes attracted attention and people thought she was possessed by some kind of spirit, that wouldn't be good.

So, Ziyue packed up her things and took the memorial tablets of the original owner's adoptive parents with her. After all, although these two elders were not her biological parents, they had been very good to the original owner. So she took the tablets with her and would take over the worship on behalf of the original owner once she was settled.

There wasn't much to tidy up in the house; it consisted of three mud-brick rooms. After the original owner held funerals for his parents, the family had no savings left.

However, Ziyue still tried her best to pack up and leave the villagers with the impression that she had packed her things and left on her own. Otherwise, it would be bad if the villagers reported her missing to the authorities.

She placed her bedding and farm tools at the entrance of her left neighbor, Aunt Zhang's yard, while placing her pots, pans, and other household items at the entrance of her right neighbor, Butcher Hu's house.

These two families had helped with the funeral arrangements for the original owner's adoptive parents quite a bit before, and she didn't want to take these things with her, so she left them to the neighbors.

Moreover, it's clear from the scene that she left on her own, rather than being kidnapped.

To ensure this image was firmly established, she also slipped a letter into the bedding she left for Aunt Zhang's family. To be precise, it was a small note with a few words written crookedly in charcoal, the gist of which was that she had left this place of sorrow and that there was no need to look for her.

The original owner had never attended school; in this feudal ancient society, only boys were qualified to study.

Not to mention that this is a small village. Only a few families in the village are slightly better off and can make a living, so they grit their teeth and support their sons to go to school.

The original owner had only learned some simple words from her adoptive father.

With everything prepared, Ziyue entered the space, first taking a bath in the spiritual spring water, then putting on a set of men's clothing, intending to disguise herself as a man.

Although she is quite strong and not afraid of trouble, she is not familiar with this world yet, so she should keep a low profile for now. Traveling alone, it will be more convenient to dress as a man and do everything.

Because she had soaked in the spiritual spring water, her skin color changed drastically. It was no longer as dark as the original owner's, and her hair was no longer yellow and looked malnourished. She was completely different from the original owner.

Although the original owner was only 13 years old, she was about 150 cm tall. The original owner's appearance was about 50% similar to her previous appearance, but her features were slightly more heroic, so when she wore men's clothing, it was hard to tell whether she was male or female.

After taking a shower and changing her clothes, Ziyue took out a bowl of vegetable porridge, a vegetarian steamed bun, a bowl of minced meat and egg custard, and a few shrimp dumplings. After eating and drinking her fill, at three o'clock in the morning, Ziyue quietly teleported out of the house and arrived at the outside of a dilapidated courtyard.

This was the home of the man named Wang Laizi. Ziyue silently teleported into the room. At that moment, Wang Laizi was fast asleep on the bed, snoring loudly.

Ziyue used her lightning-based superpower to knock him unconscious, then put him into her spatial storage. She reappeared in the deep mountains next to the village.

She didn't go deep into the mountains, but just a little further in from the outer edge. Then she released Wang Laizi and threw him on the ground, and then went into the mountains to catch two more wolves.

The two wolves looked completely bewildered.

One moment they were in their own burrows, and the next they were in another.

However, his eyes lit up when he saw the fleshy corpse lying on the ground.

Woo~~

He couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar with joy.

How wonderful! In the middle of the night, although I don't know how I suddenly ended up in another place, meat has been delivered to my door. Who cares about anything else, meat is the most important thing!

So, Wang Laizi, who was awakened by the wolf howls, opened his eyes to find two wolves staring at him with their gaping maws. He was so frightened that his eyes rolled back and he immediately fainted again.

However, the two wolves didn't care whether he had fainted from fright or not; whether he was dead or alive didn't matter, eating meat was the most important thing.

then,

“Ah—Ah—”

A piercing scream shattered the silence of the night and echoed throughout the sky.

However, the place Ziyue chose was still some distance from the village. Although the villagers might be able to hear some noise, the noise would soon disappear.

Some villagers thought they were dreaming and hallucinating, so there was no disturbance.

Ziyue sat on a branch of a large tree nearby, watching as Wang Laizi was devoured by the two wolves.

This can be considered revenge for the original owner of the body.

-

The next day, the neighbors found the things at the door and realized that Ziyue had left. A young girl was all alone outside, and many kind-hearted villagers were worried about her safety.

As for Wang Laizi, he was a loner who usually stole chickens and dogs in the village, and no one liked him.

When the villagers hadn't seen Wang Laizi for several days, they realized something was wrong.

They couldn't find him at his house, so the village chief organized the villagers to search for him in the mountains.

Eventually, they found what appeared to be torn and tattered clothing belonging to Wang Laizi, along with some bones and bloodstains, in the mountains...

However, the villagers all assumed that he had gone into the mountains on his own, had bad luck, encountered wolves, and was eaten by them. No one suspected Ziyue.

That's what happened next.

Back to the present——

With a small bundle on her back, Ziyue headed straight for Qingxian, a nearby county town, guided by Xiao Jiu'er.

Money makes the world go round. Ziyue used two gold ingots to re-register her household and settle down in this small county town called Qing County.

Her name remained Qing Ziyue, but the registration date was changed to fifteen years ago. She also canceled the original owner's household registration, just in case someone investigated and found any problems later.

She didn't want to use the original owner's household registration so that someone could use it to investigate her background and she could just register a new one.

From then on, she was a native of Qing County.
