Yun Xinyue had transmigrated.

Friends who have transmigrated know that ancient life is not easy, often causing sighs.

But—

She didn’t expect it to be this difficult!

Just an hour ago, she was still in a modern hospital finishing treatment and receiving an IV drip when a system suddenly chose her. It heartlessly told her that she was not long for this world and congratulated her on the opportunity to bind with a life-extending system.

Yun Xinyue, who hadn’t lived enough, agreed to the agreement after learning it wasn’t a scam. She would help the system complete strategy missions in exchange for energy to repair her body long-term.

As soon as she landed, the system, having consumed a lot of energy to repair her body, went into hibernation, leaving only the identity and image of the target to be.

Before she could check the information and images, bandits ambushed and robbed the princess’s wedding procession.

Seeing the bandits gathering, the leading general hid her and lured the enemy away.

“I heard that the Holy Son of Miao is personally waiting for the princess in Fengcheng. Now we are only a dozen miles away from Fengcheng. They might discover the bandits soon, so we will be fine.”

Yun Xinyue tried to steady herself and nodded repeatedly.

But when bad luck strikes, even drinking water can cause problems.

After the general left, a bandit who had been stabbed through the stomach actually got up and tried to kill her!

Unable to hide any longer, she had to start running.

The mountain roads were difficult to walk on, and it was even harder for her in her elaborate wedding dress, so she had to abandon the cumbersome garments as she ran.

The autumn air was thick.

A cool breeze brushed her neck, feeling like a layer of sticky spider silk, which was a little uncomfortable.

But she didn’t dare stop or look back, burying her head and half-running, half-crawling on the undulating mountain path.

She didn’t know how long had passed.

The light filtering through the dense branches was no longer a pale gold, but a floating twilight, with scattered starlight just enough to illuminate the path under her feet.

Autumn days are short, and the twilight was quickly taken away.

The surroundings became increasingly silent. The sounds of birds, rapid breathing, and the creaking of crushed leaves echoed in her ears, as if they were coming from right behind her.

“Run!”

“Keep running!”

Yun Xinyue was startled and instinctively squatted down, covering her head.

Thud!

The swung knife directly hit the tree trunk, sinking in half an inch.

Crap, wouldn’t she game over as soon as she transmigrated, directly failing the mission and being sent back to her original world?

No way, she wanted to live.

Glancing at the steep slope on the side, where she couldn’t see the bottom, and then at the burly, fierce-looking man with a knife in both hands, she closed her eyes, steeled her heart, and rolled down with her head in her arms.

She thought she would be dizzy or fall into some deep ditch, but she only felt pain, and she could even get up.

But—

As soon as she got up, she saw the bandit sliding down the slope sideways, charging towards her.

Yun Xinyue turned and ran.

“Damn you!”

Why were they chasing so closely, not even picking up the gold she dropped?

Were they sick?

The place she landed seemed to be a cave, but it was covered by deep grass, probably unnoticed. Inside, there were clumps of weeds growing.

She didn’t know if it was her imagination, but she seemed to hear the sound of water, like pearls falling on a silver plate, tinkling and echoing.

There was water!

Yun Xinyue, who grew up by the sea, wasn’t good at much else, but she was a first-rate swimmer.

It would be even better if the water in the cave connected to the big river outside.

She decisively fled towards the sound of water.

Focusing on the pool of water, she didn’t pay much attention to her feet. She didn’t know what she stepped on, but it pricked her foot. She hissed and hopped forward on one foot, accidentally stepping on a loose clod of earth on the bank and plunging into the water.

As she fell into the water, she only had time to take a breath and couldn’t worry about anything else.

After thrashing around in the water for a while, she adjusted her direction and prepared to leave, but she saw a white shadow in the water where she had fallen.

Someone had fallen to the bottom of the water.

To save or not to save?

She hesitated for a moment, pulled out the hairpin from her hair, bent back, and dove towards the bottom of the water.

Unexpectedly, the person at the bottom of the water was not entangled by water plants.

With such a big commotion and no reaction, what was he doing?

Yun Xinyue’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly reached out to turn the other person’s shoulder and felt for his neck.

His neck was pulsating; he wasn’t dead.

She thought that a dead person should float to the top.

Not knowing what was wrong with this person, she was afraid he would drown, so she quickly grabbed his arm and swam with him.

Looking at his fair and smooth skin, he should still be a teenager.

It would be a pity if he died.

Her breath was almost gone, so she surfaced to take a breath.

“Cough cough cough—”

Thump thump.

The sound of staggering footsteps echoed in the cave.

Bad, the bandits were catching up.

She quickly shook the person who still had his eyes closed: “Hey, buddy, wake up.”

The buddy with his eyes closed leaned on her shoulder, like a wooden sculpture, not moving at all.

They were too close, and she couldn’t see his condition clearly, only knowing that he was still alive.

“They say picking up random men will bring misfortune…” Yun Xinyue puffed out her cheeks, weighed it for two seconds, but couldn’t bear to leave him behind, so she gritted her teeth and dragged him to swim further away.

The water was flowing; going in that direction, she should be able to find an exit.

The person focused on escaping didn’t know that the “silver ornaments” wrapped around the teenager’s forehead and wrists were sticking out scarlet tongues and quietly turning around.

Strange, why wasn’t Master waking up?

If there was no murderous intent, should they bite the two-legged beast that was casually touching him?

With an extra person, her escape speed slowed down, and the bandit quickly caught up, covered in blood.

The burly man grinned hideously and stuck his knife into the ground: “This time, let’s see where you run!”

He completely ignored the injuries on his body, plunged into the water, and swam towards Yun Xinyue.

Damn, the other person was also a good swimmer and seemed to be very familiar with this place.

Dragging a person, Yun Xinyue was eventually grabbed by the bandit, who grabbed her shoulder and dragged her towards the shore.

In pain, she loosened her hand, and the teenager who had been supported slowly fell back into the water.

“Hey—”

Watching the teenager sink, she subconsciously struggled and tried to grab him.

Her struggles were in vain.

The bandit quickly dragged her to the shore.

The rough friction of the stones and grass, through layers of skirts, was clearly transmitted to her skin.

Yun Xinyue felt that the sides of her legs should be rubbed red.

She raised her foot, wanting to step on the other person’s shoulder to perform a golden cicada escape.

The bandit snorted disdainfully and bumped her calf with his elbow.

Her calf immediately went numb and collapsed softly.

Unable to struggle with her hands and feet, she raised her head, propped up her body, and tried to bite the other person with her teeth, but she bit into the air and almost broke the tip of her tongue.

“!!”

Damn it, none of the self-rescue tutorials in the videos worked.

The bandit threw her aside and reached back for his knife.

Her shoulder hit something sharp, and Yun Xinyue opened her mouth in pain and dodged to the side.
