In his third year of college, Jiang Xubai dies in an accident. When he wakes up again, he finds unfamiliar memories in his mind, coarse clothes on his body, and a thatched hut with nothing in it. Jiang Xubai's vision goes dark. He decides to start over, finds a pond, and jumps in.
Whether by luck or misfortune, someone fishes him out as soon as he jumps in. Before he can recover, the sight of a tiger lying by the pond makes him faint.
This time, he wakes up not in a thatched hut but in a brick house. The tiger has become a tiger skin, and the man who saved him seems to be a hunter.
If Jiang Xubai had known he would transmigrate, he wouldn't have studied Chinese pharmacy back then. He should at least have studied traditional Chinese medicine, so he could make a living in this strange world, where he's too weak to even truss a chicken.
But it's too late for regrets. So Jiang Xubai decides to repay the hunter's life-saving kindness by giving himself to him. Sorry, big brother hunter!
With a suitable place to stay, Jiang Xubai thinks he can finally relax. But while other people's cooking is delicious, Lu Rong's food is tasteless. Having sampled so many delicacies, Jiang Xubai can only pitch in with his mouth.
Why not with his hands?

Of course, he keeps busy in other ways: gathering medicinal herbs in the mountains and studying medicine at a clinic. At last, he opens his own clinic and expands it throughout the prefectural city.
[The Gong's Perspective]
As a young man, Lu Rong served in the army and fought the enemy. He was lucky enough to make it home, and because he saved the county magistrate's son on the battlefield, he got a job as a constable after retiring from the military and returning to civilian life.
He had few family ties and was always cold-hearted. But on the day he came home to rest before starting work, he was inexplicably compelled to save someone who had fallen into the water. He never expected that person to cling to him and ask to become his sworn younger brother.
It's not uncommon for men to become sworn brothers, but this was far too sudden.
Lu Rong firmly refused.
Later: You said you'd be my sworn younger brother. Why aren't you coming home tonight?
