In the swaying carriage, Lin Ye rubbed his head, feeling a headache coming on. He raised his eyes and quickly scanned his surroundings.
The luxurious carriage made of brocade, the long swords and short knives hanging on both sides, and the simple dirt road outside the carriage all showed that Lin Ye was now in another world.
However, there was only one thought in Lin Ye's mind at that moment. Who is trying to kill me?
Lin Ye's background in his previous life was not low. He was the illegitimate son of the Nanyang Chinese Lin family.
In his previous life, Lin Ye was very open-minded. He was an illegitimate son and the youngest. His elder brother was already over 40 years old and controlled half of the family's business. The other brothers were not useless either. They all more or less controlled some power in the family.
As the youngest Lin Ye, what did he have to compete with the others? Compete with them? It was not that Lin Ye did not live up to expectations, but he really did not have a chance.
Therefore, in his previous life, Lin Ye had never competed for anything. He had been a useless hedonist, enjoying himself to his heart's content.
Recently, Lin Ye had become addicted to a newly developed game, "Pugilistic World." It combined the backgrounds of countless martial arts worlds. The scenery, characters, and plot were all grand and majestic. Most importantly, it was incomparably realistic. It was as if it was another virtual world. Lin Ye was instantly addicted to this game.
Later on, Pugilistic World's technology was innovated. After releasing the third version of the story, holographic game helmets were immediately released. Lin Ye relied on his own wealth to obtain the first batch of helmets. However, as soon as he put it on, the entire helmet exploded!
Lin Ye knew very well that this had nothing to do with the game company. The safety of the helmet had been tested. Forget about exploding, it could not even cause an electric shock.
The only thing Lin Ye could not understand was that he had already acted so harmless and useless. Why would someone still want to kill him? Perhaps his decision not to compete for anything was wrong from the beginning?
Right at this moment, countless memories surged into Lin Ye's mind, and it instantly caused him to groan in pain. His eyes revealed a wisp of ruthlessness, and he only calmed down after a long while.
Lin Ye rubbed his head. He had inherited all the memories of this body and even some of its personality. Was he Lin Ye or the illegitimate son of the Chu family in Tongzhou Prefecture, Chu Xiu?
In this life, his name was Chu Xiu. He was the illegitimate son of the Chu Clan in Wei County of Yan Kingdom.
Of the four sons of the Chu clan, he was ranked second. However, his birth mother was only an ordinary concubine, and she died during childbirth, so he was not valued in the Chu clan.
Chu Xiu used to be cowardly and reckless. He stood on the side of his eldest brother, Chu Kai, in the struggle for the position of Clan Head. As a result, he angered his third brother, who was also qualified to compete for the position of Clan Head. He was framed by his third brother, and was punished to be a steward of the Chu family's mining area in Nanshan, Wei County.
The Chu clan was a large clan in the Tongzhou prefecture, and the steward also held a portion of the clan's power. However, the Nanshan mining area was not a good job. The miners were all criminals and murderers who the Chu clan had bought from the government at a very low price. A single mistake could lead to a riot.
In the past, several of the stewards of the Chu clan in the Nanshan mining area had died in the riots of these murderers. Even though Chu Xiu had been here for a year, these murderers had not rioted. It could only be said that Chu Xiu was very lucky.
Originally, Chu Xiu was going to stay in the Nanshan mining area for three years, but recently the Chu clan had decided to choose a successor. Even though he was a illegitimate son who had made mistakes, he was still qualified to participate. Therefore, Chu Xiu had been summoned back to the Chu clan in advance.
Chu Xiu picked up a short knife hanging in the carriage and unsheathed it. With a soft hum, the knife reflected a handsome man in his early twenties, but with a hint of gloominess.
In this life, his appearance was not bad, but for some reason, Chu Xiu felt that his face was somewhat familiar.
Suddenly, Chu Xiu thought of something, and the knife fell to the ground. He seemed to know who he was.
Before Chu Xiu's transmigration, the Pugilistic World had already updated two versions of the plot. The third version had not yet begun, and there was only a plot introduction. The most important part of the third version of the plot was the final villain boss, 'Demon Lord' Chu Xiu!
'Demon Lord' Chu Xiu was born in the Chu clan in the Tongzhou prefecture of the Wei County of the Yan Kingdom. After the family incident, he experienced a great change in personality, and finally embarked on the path of evil.
At the end of the plot introduction, 'Demon Lord' Chu Xiu re-established the incomparably glorious Kunlun Devil Cult of a thousand years ago. He led the four great demon lords under his command to dominate the martial world, and their demonic flames soared to the sky.
No wonder Chu Xiu felt that his appearance was somewhat familiar. He had not noticed it before, but now that he thought about his background and his age, he realized that he was the final villain boss of the third version of the game, 'Demon Lord' Chu Xiu!
After understanding this truth, Chu Xiu did not know whether he should cry or laugh.
He was destined to be a famous figure in the martial world in the future, but was there a need to guess the final outcome? Wasn't the final villain boss of any game meant to be defeated?
Picking up the short knife on the ground, Chu Xiu lightly flicked the blade, and a hint of gloominess appeared in his eyes. He mumbled, "Destined to be defeated? Hehe, in my previous life, I did not fight or snatch, but in the end, I died a horrible death. Since the heavens have given me another chance, then in this life, I will take the initiative to fight and snatch. It's better for me to kill someone than for them to kill me! "
At this moment, the door of the carriage was opened, and a charming and delicate maid seemed to have heard the commotion in the carriage, and came in. She looked at Chu Xiu in astonishment and asked, "Young Master, did something happen?"
Looking at this maid, whose appearance and beauty were both top-notch, the corners of Chu Xiu's mouth curled into a sinister smile.
The maid in front of him was called Yue 'er, and she was the mother of the Chu family's third son, Chu Sheng. She was also someone sent by his second mother.
It was laughable that Chu Xiu had actually thought that this maid was assigned to him by the family, and had even doted on her.
In the end, not only had Yue 'er used his name to act like a tyrant in the Nanshan Mining Area, causing his reputation to be completely ruined by the servants of the Chu family, she had even secretly encouraged him to provoke and torture criminals, wanting to incite a riot. It was obvious that she wanted to put him to death.
Looking at Yue 'er, Chu Xiu suddenly grinned, "It's nothing, I just dropped my knife on the ground."
For some reason, when Yue 'er saw Chu Xiu's smile, she suddenly felt a little gloomy, and her hair stood on end.
However, Yue 'er did not care too much. She gave Chu Xiu a sweet smile, and said, "Young Master, it's been raining recently, so it's not easy to walk on the official road. Why don't we take the small path in Yuan Bao Town? It's closer there."
Chu Xiu's face had a hint of a smile that was not a smile, and said, "Take the small path in Yuan Bao Town? But I heard that these small paths are all opened under the barren mountains and forests of Shang Mang Mountain. It's very easy to encounter bandits there. "
Yue 'er said coquettishly, "It's all just a rumor. Many of the caravans going to and fro the Tongzhou Prefecture take the small path. Moreover, this servant still wants to return to the residence to take a bath. This servant hasn't taken a bath many times in the past year in the Nanshan Mining Area, and my body is already smelly."
In the past, when Yue 'er acted like a spoiled child, Chu Xiu would definitely embrace her, comfort her, and satisfy her requests.
But now, Chu Xiu was only looking at her with a creepy smile on his face. This caused Yue 'er to panic.
At this moment, Chu Xiu suddenly stretched out his hand and pinched Yue 'er's tender face. Only when Yue' er almost cried out in pain did he let go and say, "Alright, then let's go to Yuan Bao Town."
Yue 'er rubbed her face. She suddenly felt that the Chu Xiu in front of her was a little unfamiliar, as if he was a completely different person.
But when she thought of the news that Second Madam had sent a few days ago and her promise to her, Yue 'er immediately threw these doubts to the back of her mind.
Chu Xiu saw the sweet smile on Yue 'er's face and wanted to get closer. He said indifferently, "Go and instruct the servants to change the route to Yuan Bao Town. Rest for a night there before continuing."
Looking at Yue 'er's figure walking out, Chu Xiu's face revealed a look of disdain. She's just a stupid woman without any tricks.
But his body in this life seemed to be even more stupid. He was actually played around by such a woman. Who knows what kind of stimulation he received in the end to become the Demon Lord with monstrous demonic flames.
This Yue 'er insisted on taking the small path to Yuan Bao Town. Chu Xiu was sure that there was definitely something wrong with this. But he still agreed, because there was an opportunity in Yuan Bao Town!
In this life, Chu Xiu quickly understood what his true advantage was. It was not his identity as the future Demon Lord, but his familiarity with the plot of the first two versions of the game!
Although Chu Xiu would become the leader of the Kunlun Devil Cult in the future, that was only the plot introduction. There were definitely no details about his future experiences in the plot introduction.
And as a loyal player of Pugilistic World, Chu Xiu could be said to be very clear about the plot of the first two versions of the game. Even if he had not experienced some of it, he had looked up information on the forums and other places to fill in the gaps.
According to the time, Chu Xiu should be in the early stages of the first version of the plot. There should be more than 20 years before the third version of the plot begins.
It could be said that Chu Xiu's true advantage was that he knew all the big and small history of this world for the past 20 years!
And now, in Yuan Bao Town, if Chu Xiu remembered correctly, there was a great opportunity waiting for him.
