Chu Huai stared at the boy who was smiling at him not far away and he felt a headache occur.

The boy was about sixteen years old, with delicate features, curved eyebrows, apricot eyes, a small nose, and small eyes.

Wearing an old school uniform that was washed white and had a few holes in it, the thin teenager looked even thinner because the clothes were too big. Kpows0

The other party also carried a big, dirty backpack on his back, pressing the thin boy like a poor stray little beggar.

But Chu Huai can guarantee that the boy is definitely not as simple as a poor beggar!

This was because the boy was hiding in front of him just now and he didn’t realize this, it’s not something ordinary people can do.

The boy’s name was Yu Ke, and he met him in Zaoer Village.

According to what he learned from the villagers, the other party’s life experience was very pitiful. He had no mother since he was a child, and his father died early in an accident and he was raised at his second uncle’s house.

The boy’s second uncle is an honest man, but the second uncle’s wife is stingy and prudent.

They don’t know if it was because he was beaten too much when he was a child but the young man had a problem with his brain. He was so stupid and a poor child.

Indeed, Chu Huai remembered that when he was walking around in the village and meeting other people, the boy was indeed being bullied by his second aunt, and he was being beaten with a wooden stick. 2H37lN

Seeing that picture, he, who has always been cold-hearted, rarely softened and opened his mouth to help.

But then the other party hugged his thigh and called him Zifang-jun. Telling him that he had been waiting for him for a long time, and Zifang-jun… the boy said a long list of words that he didn’t understand…

At first, he only thought that the other party had recognized the wrong person. Later, when the village chief told him the boy’s story, he realized that this teenager had a problem.

The boy has been stupid since he was a child, his intelligence is not high, and to put it bluntly, he is a fool who does not know the difference between cold and warm. CTfB0o

Since a serious illness not long ago, it seemed that he had gotten a little smarter, but then the symptoms of stupidity became more serious- he shouted all day long about Zifang-jun, and he kept saying words everyone couldn’t understand…

Regarding this, Chu Huai didn’t care at all, to him the boy was just a stranger.

He didn’t expect that from that day on, the boy would have entangled with him, followed him everywhere, and Chu Huai couldn’t shake him off.

It was precisely because of this little troublesome fellow that he decided to leave earlier than he had planned, otherwise he would stay for two more days. i8vpVb

“Who on earth are you?” vmTLP2

Yu Ke did not expect that he would show such a strange and wary expression, and the boy’s delicate face showed a trace of hurt.

The other party walked out from behind the stone, grabbed the backpack straps on his shoulders with both hands, stared at him pitifully, and shouted again, “Zifang-jun…”

He has to say that this boy’s appearance and voice are extremely deceptive.

Even if he knew that the other party was not as simple as it seemed, or even hidden himself deeply, Chu Huai could not help but feel soft and sorry when he heard such a pitiful voice. dbekMV

“Yu Ke, I’ll say it again, I’m not called Zifang-jun, I’m Chu Huai, can you stop following me?”

He didn’t know when it was so easy to soften his heart- let alone his stay in the cruel apocalypse for a few years, even when there was no apocalypse, he was a very cold-hearted person.

If someone else pestered him like this and discovered his spatial secrets, he would probably go straight up and kill him.

But this young man made him helpless, and his pitiful little appearance made him unable to say a word of seriousness. 73N2Go

It seemed that he still couldn’t get rid of the opponent now.

“Then, then I won’t call you Zifang-jun, I will call you by your current name, will you take me with you? You said that you will come back soon to marry me, but I have waited for you for a long time, you can’t say you forgot about me…”

“Mr. Chu Huai, if you don’t take me away, they will send me to the hospital. I heard that it is terrible. They have to cut my stomach and head for treatment, but I am not sick. The doctor here is so strange…”

Yu Ke seemed to be sad when using his correct name, eyes filled with tears, and the tears seemed to nearly fall off. XZghC0

He stared at Chu Huai with grievances and complained, as if he had done something terribly wrong, making Chu Huai want to slap his forehead.

Here it is again, here it is again, this little guy is relentless.

Always talking about marriage and talking anciently, is it possible that this guy crossed over from somewhere?

After rebirth, Chu Huai adopted an attitude of believing in the impossible in this world rather than rejecting them, after all, he was born again. 8YRDfH

According to his observations, this Yu Ke is not as stupid as the villagers said, but rather is very clever, and quite capable, and his speech is unusually ancient.

If he has to guess, the other party had either suddenly enlightened or he definitely crossed over from another time.

Because all the signs were so alike, he couldn’t help but guess that way.

But no matter where the boy came from, it didn’t matter who he was- the important thing was that the strange boy always pestered him and he was very troublesome. 0tT4yH

He would not take a strange stranger with him, it would be too risky.

Chu Huai stood there with an impatient expression, thinking firmly in his heart with chagrin.

And the tears in the eyes of the young boy who hadn’t received his response for a long time could no longer be held back, they started to fall, and he continued to look at him with that pitiful expression…

The two visible tear marks made Chu Huai’s heart pick up. TgAV9o

This is it again! Every time the boy was not allowed to follow him, the other party looked at him with this expression and then wept with tears.

He, Chu Huai, didn’t usually fall for the act of pretending to be pitiful, but the boy’s tears were like a wave of flood, which could instantly destroy the hard wall of the embankment in his heart.

“Put away those tears and get in the car!”

After a long while, Chu Huai took out a mountain cross-country car from the space as if resigned to his fate, and let the other person get on the car. NUfij8

Finally getting his permission to follow, Yu Ke ran over with a burst of laughter, joyful in his heart.

He knew that Zifang-jun would not leave him!

Although the bulging bag on his back was heavy, his pace was still fast, and the panic and confusion for having been lost for many days disappeared completely.

He didn’t know where he was, or why he suddenly came here. rAY5Qs

He only remembered that Zifang-jun had gone far away, and he clearly said that he would be back soon, but he waited for many days without seeing anyone.

After that, the guards of the dungeon became more and more strict, and the companions around him became less and less. Jiang Fangshi came to take his blood again. This time he took a lot of blood, and he couldn’t help but faint…

When he opened his eyes again, the dungeon was gone, the guards were gone, his companions were gone, and his surroundings became this strange world.

Although he has always been living in a dark dungeon, Zifang-jun has secretly taken him out several times. AMcbXD

He had seen what the outside world looked like, this was different from what he had seen, at least the women in their place didn’t wear clothes with arms and thighs exposed in summer…

He also had an uncle and aunt for some reason, and that aunt was very fierce.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

When he opened his eyes, the other party scolded him, and then she used a cane to slap him, which made him sore, she was even more fierce than the guards in the dungeon.

Zifang-jun said, “To be a man, one should pay a tooth for a tooth, and repay grace with kindness.” YFxQny

He wanted to teach the fierce aunt at the time. Zifang-jun had taught him martial arts and Taoism, and even the captain of the military camp could not beat him. An ordinary peasant woman was not his opponent at all.

But for some reason, his body is very weak, and all the Dao Qigong in his body has disappeared.

After that, through the unfamiliar vague memories that came out of his brain, he finally figured out the situation.

He guessed that he should have died and then reincarnated. Maybe the local government had forgotten to give him Mengpo soup to drink, so he still remembered his life. YPuc95

That’s good, he doesn’t want to forget the past.

Zifang-jun said that he would come back. He hadn’t seen Zifang-jun yet. He believed that he should wait until Zifang-jun came back.

Sure enough, Zifang-jun appeared soon.

Although Zifang-jun dressed very strangely and acted as if he didn’t know him, he was sure that he was Zifang-jun, and Zifang-jun’s space was on him. PChwuY

But no matter what he said, Zifang-jun did not admit that he knew him.

Well, Chu Huai is Chu Huai, it was just a name, he will call him Huai-jun in the future, as long as he doesn’t leave him anymore.

Yu Ke sat in the front seat, staring sideways at Chu Huai, who was driving seriously, happy, and curious.

“Mr. Chu Huai, where’s your hair? It’s so short, what’s this place? I saw that there is a magic weapon in the village that is so powerful that it can only be done by a good god. They said it’s called a tv chicken…” NAUQyZ

“By the way, there is something called hand chicken, which is comparable to our transmission notes before, but these chickens don’t look like chickens, and they don’t taste like chickens at all…”

“Mr. Chu Huai, the outside world is really weird and unimaginable, but it is also really interesting. Just like this car, it can move without being pulled by a horse or being driven by Taoism. It’s amazing…”

Young people who have just arrived in the new world feel strange about everything, full of antiquity.

If it hadn’t been for Chu Huai’s speculation about his origins, and having experienced such miraculous things as rebirth, he would be like the villagers in Zaoer Village and think that the other party’s brain had a problem and that he would talk madly. vM0COd

But listening to the boy’s ignorant nagging, he became more and more curious.

This Yu Ke was even more unusual than he had guessed. He was not so simple. Listening to his tone, the other party seemed to understand Dao Qigong and other mysterious skills.

This kind of people will exist like national treasures hidden in the base in the last days.

He doesn’t know if it is a good or bad thing to bring this young man. YR7k 2

Chu Huai drove the car, occasionally looking sideways at the side and looking around, curious about the boy who studied the car, and there was both an inexplicable peace of mind and a lot of doubts in his heart.

Translator's Note

(Meng Po is the goddess of forgetfulness in Chinese mythology, who serves Meng Po Soup on the Bridge of Forgetfulness or Naihe Bridge where people cross over after death- they drink the Meng Po soup for them to forget their previous lives and reincarnate to another)

Translator's Note

(“电视鸡 (Diànshì jī)”- There are two characters for ‘Jī’, the first one 鸡 means chicken and the other one 机 means machine- since machines did not exist in his time, Yu Ke might have automatically assumed that it meant chicken)

  1. Welp, I’m assuming that when Chu Huai iis the reincarnation of this Zifang-jun but for whatever reason, when he died he wasn’t able to keep his memories? So when Chi Huai was in that car accident, his abilities from his last life started to come back, but there was no catalyst for him to remember said past life? This is pure speculation rn, but seems plausible with the current way the plot is lol
