Chapter 1 Rebirth and Ruin

Chang'an Village, a country road.

A young village girl stumbled and ran forward, pursued relentlessly by two farmhands.

"Shi Yu, stop right there! If you run again, I bet I'll catch you and break your legs!"

"So what if I strip you naked and throw you with a boar? It's not like I'm going to kill you, why are you being so dramatic?"

The young village girl felt unsteady on her feet, her face filled with fear, and a metallic taste rose in her throat, but her heart remained resolute; she could not let these beasts ruin her reputation.

Her family had committed a crime, and the entire family was to be exiled to Heishan Island.

More than 20 years ago, her father saved Lin Zhicheng's grandfather. In order to repay the kindness, Lin Zhicheng's grandfather arranged a marriage between her and Lin Zhicheng when they were children.

Now, as long as Lin Zhicheng is willing to fulfill the marriage agreement and marry her, she can stay.

But then, Lin Zhicheng's grandfather passed away, and the Lin family disliked her and didn't want to acknowledge the marriage. However, they didn't want to be seen as ungrateful, so they came up with this underhanded scheme...

They ruined her reputation and then broke off the engagement as the victim.

After being tricked into going to a dilapidated thatched hut, she managed to escape with her life on the line.

"Help! Someone wants to... wants to harm me!"

The two farmhands were taken aback. Fearing that their cries for help would attract attention and expose the incident, one of them grabbed a large, dry tree branch and smashed it down on her.

Bang!

The dry branch struck her back precisely and shattered into pieces instantly!

The immense impact caused the village girl to lose her balance and tumble forward down the hillside.

When she stopped, she unexpectedly rolled into a man's arms.

At this moment, the man who was resting was somewhat taken aback. When he came to his senses, he grabbed the village girl by the neck with his well-defined knuckles, pushed her away from him, and glanced at her.

The village girl was lying there with her head drooping, lifeless.

It looks like it's dead.

The man didn't care and was about to casually push the body aside.

But then, the village girl, who was supposed to be "dead," suddenly opened her eyes.

A sharp glint shot out from his eyes, accompanied by a chilling frost.

Suddenly, what caught my eye was a face as handsome as if carved by a knife.

His eyes were as captivating as the deep sea, his long eyebrows were slightly raised, and the smile on his pale pink lips added a touch of dangerous roguishness.

The next moment, disregarding his weakness, Shi Yu acted almost instinctively.

Her palm strike was fierce and swift as a gust of wind, carrying a stunning aura as it swept towards the man's chest.

The hand gripping the back of her neck tightened suddenly, and at the same time, the man's other hand grabbed her wrist the instant her palm touched his chest.

"Does the dead want to rise from the dead?"

The moment their skin touched, it felt as if an electric current surged through their bodies, and Shi Yu's delicate body trembled uncontrollably.

His eyes widened in confusion for a moment.

Then, Shi Yu's heart began to beat faster and faster.

The taste of energy!

It turns out that this man's body was emitting energy factors that only existed in the future world.

That's why she was resurrected after dying in a particle explosion in the future, and came back to life in the body of a village girl with the same name.

Before she could think it through, Shi Yu clearly felt the force on the back of her neck getting stronger and stronger.

In this unfamiliar era a thousand years ago, she really, really needed this walking "energy stone".

Therefore, after quickly searching through the original owner's memories, Shi Yu finally found some information about men.

Shi Yu said with difficulty, "Lu Yizhou, I can help you with the freshwater issue on Black Mountain Island..."

The force behind his neck noticeably paused.

Lu Yizhou pulled the person close to him, their eyes met, and the two were very close.

Shi Yu could clearly smell a faint, clean scent unique to men emanating from the other person.

How can you help me?

Shi Yu paused for a moment, "This... I haven't thought about it yet, but isn't the enemy of an enemy a friend? We can discuss it properly later."

Now she not only lacks energy, but also seems to be getting weaker.

The most urgent task is to replenish energy.

So she "needs" him.

Lu Yizhou remained silent.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on Shi Yu, deep and unfathomable.

"Where is that slut?" Just then, two farmhands finally caught up by taking a mountain path.

The two men glared fiercely at Shi Yu, but when they saw Lu Yizhou next to her, they were clearly taken aback.

Or perhaps sensing that the other party was not to be trifled with, one of them threatened, "Hey! I'm warning you, don't meddle in other people's business. This bitch has offended the Lin family."

"You know the Lin family, right? They're not someone you can mess with!"

Lu Yizhou remained noncommittal.

With a narrowed eye, his slightly teasing gaze swept over Shi Yu. He crossed his arms behind his head, shifted his body, and leaned lazily against the tree.

Sure enough, he had a cold, indifferent attitude, as if it were none of his business, which made Shi Yu grit her teeth involuntarily.

Seeing this, the two farmhands looked smug and immediately went forward to grab the man.

"roll!"

Shi Yu's face hardened, and she decisively kicked one of the people away.

But then, another person pounced on him like a hungry wolf.

Shi Yu quickly dodged to the side.

Before she could even stand firmly, she felt unsteady on her feet and her vision blurred.

As she gasped for breath, her chest was already soaked with a thin layer of sweat, revealing glimpses of her beautiful figure beneath.

"Gulp!" The two farmhands were immediately parched and couldn't help but swallow hard. This made them even more determined to catch the fish.

Shi Yu's gaze darkened.

Their energy was already insufficient, and it had been continuously depleted after they traveled through time. If this continued, it would only be a matter of time before they were caught.

Realizing this, Shi Yu turned her head with difficulty and cast her gaze at Lu Yizhou, who was watching the commotion.

At this moment, Lu Yizhou was frowning.

He was disgusted by the two farmhands' lewd behavior, but before he could make a move, he was surprised to see the little girl use the momentum to turn around and rush towards him like a beautiful and cunning white fox.

thump!

The little girl bumped right into his arms again.

Lu Yizhou: "..."

His lips twitched, but the question he was about to ask choked back in his throat after churning in his chest.

because……

At that moment, a pair of soft, boneless hands climbed onto his chest and caressed him without restraint.

It's like teasing... it's like flirting...

A strange feeling rose uncontrollably within my body.

This unfamiliar feeling made Lu Yizhou, who had never experienced it before, both annoyed and embarrassed, and his cheeks even turned red involuntarily.

Fortunately, the shadows cast by the tree branches perfectly concealed this unease.

"Have you touched enough?"

Hearing the sound of teeth grinding from above, Shi Yu finally looked up.

The first thing you see is a very dark, handsome face.

Her eyes held a complex mix of emotions, including dissatisfaction with her being a female hooligan, and... disgust!

Shi Yu looked embarrassed.

But she knew that the most important thing at this moment was to get through the immediate crisis.

“Let’s cooperate!” Shi Yu raised her small face, her warm breath spraying onto Lu Yizhou’s chin. “Without me, you, a person from Black Mountain Island, wouldn’t even know where the Lin family lives.”

"You won't lose out on this deal!"

While talking about cooperation, Shi Yu's hands never stopped moving.

They continued to take advantage of the situation.
