(An alternate matriarchal dynasty + farming + not a pure wish-fulfillment story)
Xiao Yan was a fourth-year agricultural college student. While rushing to finish his thesis, he pulled an all-nighter and worked himself to death. He transmigrates into the adopted son of a hunter in Great Green Mountain. Just after he arrives, his hunter father dies, leaving him alone and helpless. With no choice, he relies on the survival skills his father left him to hunt in the mountains and fill his stomach, look for business opportunities, save up some money, and make a better life for himself.
Unexpectedly, he comes across an injured woman in the mountains. She can barely stay upright, and her white robes are already stained red with blood. Dirt and blood cannot conceal her peerless beauty. Though covered in wounds and on the verge of collapse, her gaze remains resolute. She's clearly not the daughter of an ordinary family.
But this is the wilderness, and Xiao Yan remembers the advice of those who transmigrated before him: never pick up a beautiful woman you find on the roadside! He prepares to leave without so much as looking her way, but the woman calls out and asks him to save her. Once she's safe, she'll repay him by giving him the status of a personal attendant.
Me: ...
(Are you okay?)
You want me to save you, and that's fine, even without a reward, but then you repay my kindness with this?!
So I kick her and tell her to get lost!
But before she can go flying, everything returns to the moment I first met her.
Xiao Yan is horrified. (Did I just run into a ghost?)
[Congratulations, Host. You've successfully triggered Save-Load System 000. Would you like to bind with it?]
Xiao Yan is thrilled. As a novel enthusiast, who wouldn't long for a golden finger like a System?
This save-load System looks like a great thing. As long as he reloads at the brink of death, he'll basically have an immortal body!
[Bind]
Only after binding does Xiao Yan realize that this golden finger isn't his...
