Quick Transmigration: Playing the Role of a Devoted Tool
Chapter 023 The Greedy Transmigrator and the Beautiful Mountain God
After a sip of floral tea and a brief exchange with the boy in front of him, Xu Su gained a preliminary understanding of this unknown world.
First, this is ancient times, because Qi Ran told him that everyone in the outer sect has long hair, and no one has short hair or a buzz cut like him.
Secondly, he discovered that the animals around the boy all called him the Mountain God.
Xu Su couldn't understand it at first either, but after drinking the mountain god's tea, he belatedly realized that the animals were talking.
Seeing his unpredictable mood swings, Qi Ran remained calm and composed.
Xu Su is the male protagonist in this world, and the plot revolves around his transmigration.
A small-time gangster is betrayed by his girlfriend and best friend, but unexpectedly finds himself transported to the Glazed Kingdom in another world.
The main character's name is Liu Du.
He was a pitiful boy living in a small village at the foot of Wushan Mountain. His father died early, and his mother raised him alone. Later, his mother fell seriously ill, which burdened Liudu, and no one dared to marry him.
The boy is fertile, but the red mole between Liu Du's eyebrows is too light in color, which means he has poor fertility, so no one is willing to marry him.
Xu Su is a complete fraud.
First, she deceived the mountain god who knew nothing about love, then left Wushan with the treasure given to her by Qi Ran, and later saved the protagonist, Shou Liudu, who was being bullied.
After Xu Su met Liu Du, he used the same method to deceive Liu Du and get Liu Du to teach him about the knowledge of the Glass Kingdom.
After his mother died, he tricked Liu Du into selling his land and going to the capital with him.
As a modern person, Xu Su is naturally doing quite well.
He invented something that didn't exist in the world and thrived in the capital.
Hearing that the emperor was ill and no one could cure him, Xu Su thought of Qi Ran from Wushan.
He arranged for Liu Du to trick Qi Ran into leaving the mountain, but Liu Du was too soft-hearted to do it. Xu Su then went back himself and tricked Qi Ran into entering the palace, where he presented her to the emperor as a gift.
The mountain god lost his heart and left the misty mountain, thus losing his magic power and being imprisoned in the cold palace.
Xu Su, relying on Qi Ran's love, climbed step by step to a high position and became the most powerful minister in the Liuli Kingdom.
Finally, he killed the old emperor and declared himself emperor.
Liu Du then became the queen of a country.
Xu Su did not mistreat him, but unfortunately Liu Du was unable to have children and could not leave Xu Su with any children. He was criticized by the world until his death.
Qi Ran's mission is to be used by Xu Su "willingly".
Unlike the previous world, in this world, Xu Su has always been an ambitious transmigrator.
After accepting that he had transmigrated, he used Qi Ran's naivety as a tool to bind her, using the name of "love" to firmly ensnare her.
Even though Xu Su eventually wanted to live forever, Qi Ran willingly gave up her entire life's cultivation to him, disappearing as wind and rain in the mortal world.
The plot doesn't describe Liudu much, since it's a world created from the perspective of a male protagonist, and most of the details revolve around Xu Su.
Qi Ran was very happy that his points in this world were not bad. His target from the previous world had fallen in love with him, which was something Qi Ran never expected.
He thought Ye Xingye was also acting and deceiving him, since the plot had already explained that Ye Xingye was lying to him from the beginning.
Fog rose in the mountains, and the sunlight became thinner.
Xu Su squatted by the lake outside the cave early in the morning, catching fish. Seeing that the small animals were all avoiding him, he snorted softly.
If Qi Ran hadn't stopped him from catching rabbits to eat, he would have skinned and roasted these fattest rabbits long ago.
Sensing a murderous intent, the gray rabbit slunk away.
The sika deer also hid in the distance in fear.
Ever since the mountain god saved the man, the animals have been afraid to approach this place easily, and occasionally they watch from afar, all worried about the mountain god.
This mortal doesn't look honest.
He must be a bad guy.
The white tiger wasn't afraid of Xu Su. It lay under the tree with its eyes half-closed, sometimes serving as the mountain god's mount.
Xu Su had just finished grilling a fish when he saw Qi Ran riding a white tiger to patrol the mountain, and he was very puzzled.
"Going to release fog again?"
"Yes, that way no mortals will easily enter the mountain." Qi Ran smiled demurely, told Xu Su not to wander around, and then left surrounded by a group of silver butterflies.
The mountains are dangerous; besides the animals Qi Ran is familiar with, there are many others that can attack ordinary people.
The mountain god's duty is to protect everything in the mountain, and sometimes he also helps the villagers at the foot of the mountain.
There is only one day a month in Wushan when it is fog-free.
This day also coincides with the villagers' time to go up the mountain to find medicinal herbs and hunt.
Qi Ran could neither protect all animals nor cut off the livelihood of mortals.
At the foot of the misty mountain, the soaked boy staggered to his feet. The stinging pain in his forehead made him dizzy, and it took him a while to see the road clearly.
Those who hit him had already run away.
After all, fog rising over Wushan is a dangerous omen.
The older generation in the village all say that Wushan Mountain is haunted, and that one can only go into the mountain to hunt on one day a month. If one goes when it is foggy, one will never come out again.
Liu Du dragged his wounds home. His mother was bedridden, and he dared not tell her that the money he had spent on groceries in town had been stolen by some guys from the next village.
Those people have never liked him and have always targeted him.
The poor house contained only an old wooden bed and a rickety table; there wasn't even a decent bowl for drinking tea or eating.
To make a living and pay for his mother's medicine, Liu Du often secretly went into the mountains to find medicinal herbs.
He was supposed to go there today, but on his way back he ran into those guys from the next village.
They held Liu Du underwater and beat him. If it weren't for the fog that suddenly rose in the mountains, he would probably have been killed in the water by those people, and no one would have known.
"Mom, are you hungry? There's still some soup in the pot." Liu Du helped his mother up, deliberately avoiding his injured wrist.
He had treated the wound on his forehead before he came and covered it with his bangs so his mother wouldn't notice.
With no candlelight in the room and only the dim light from the window, Liu Du believed his mother wouldn't notice.
"Have you eaten?" the mother asked.
"I ate what my mother ate in town. It was tofu pudding, and it was delicious." Liu Du described the scene he saw in a pretentious way, afraid that his mother would worry.
Actually, he had never eaten tofu pudding before. He stood in front of the tofu pudding stall for a while before leaving.
"I'm not hungry yet, you go and get busy." The mother sensed something was wrong, but she wasn't sure if Du Ge'er was lying to her. However, she still wanted to save a meal and eat it tomorrow.
Knowing his mother was worried about him, Liu Du still ladled the last bit of soup from the pot into a bowl, brought it to his mother's bedside, and helped her drink it.
"Mom, eat well and don't worry about me. I found a job in town, and they provide meals every day. You can eat this."
"What kind of work, Du Ge'er?" his mother asked worriedly.
"Yeah, working in a pharmacy isn't tiring," Liu Du said with a happy expression, as if he had finally found a job and had food and drink to eat.
After his mother fell asleep, Liu Du licked the soup clean from the bowl, went to the kitchen to drink his fill of water, and then lay down in the next room, still dressed, to weave a bamboo basket by the moonlight.
This skill was passed down from his father; Liu Du learned it when he was a child.
Back then, my father would go to town to sell bamboo baskets, which helped support the family.
But since his father passed away, his mother has been raising him alone, which has taken a toll on her health. Now the family is getting worse and worse, and Liu Du can only try to find a solution.
