1.
Yi Weichun was a 007 office worker, working all year round for a monthly salary of two thousand.
One day, he transmigrated to ancient times. He had a handsome face and a healthy body, but at the age when he should have been working hard, he spent his days chopping wood and chatting with the villagers, and occasionally paying his respects at the ancestral hall.
Yi Weichun thought his life would go on peacefully like this.
But one day, the village chief sold him.
The asking price was five hundred taels of silver, equivalent to hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Yi Weichun was told to put on new clothes and was carried into the city lord’s manor in a sedan chair borne by eight men. He was even sent to the city lord’s bed.
Who could have known that the city lord would be arrested and his estate confiscated that very night, leaving the promised silver worth nothing?
Yi Weichun: Damn these heartless capitalists, cheating the common people!
So he turned to the leader of the group and hesitantly held up three fingers.
"Please take me in, sir. I can do anything, as long as you pay me this much."
2.
Yi Weichun thought his new employer must be a chosen one, and he had three reasons to back it up.
First, he’d won the birth lottery and was a nobleman of the royal capital.
Second, he was exceptionally talented at everything.
Third, he had a crowd of lackeys and loved showing off.
Yi Weichun diligently went about his daily routine of serving tea and water. One day, his employer glanced at him and asked, "What’s your dream?"
Yi Weichun: ?
He smiled brightly and answered with great animation, "A mountain of gold, so I can fall asleep hugging it every night."
His employer was silent for a moment, looking a little confused.
"Isn’t that easy? I mean a dream that takes time, effort, and money to achieve."
Yi Weichun: "...Such as?"
"Unite the Ten Directions Continent and become the strongest under heaven."
Yi Weichun: ...
There was no getting through to chosen ones like him.
3.
His employer really was a chosen one. Yi Weichun worked hard as his lackey, and the silver in his pocket gradually piled up.
He thought life would keep going on like this.
Until one day, Yi Weichun discovered that this world was a book.
His employer really was the chosen one in the story, and Yi Weichun, as a cannon-fodder character, would die horribly on the day his employer took the throne.
The only way to escape that fate was to save up three thousand taels of silver and get out of there as fast as he could.
One day, Yi Weichun suddenly realized that his employer seemed to have some kind of illness. More than once, he’d seen his employer using a portrait of him as a blanket, even hugging it and inhaling deeply.
So, in order to save enough money to escape, Yi Weichun put on a loose robe and, under the pretense of treating his employer, went into his room, convinced he had caught him in the act.
"I can keep this from everyone else, and I can help treat you."
"But each treatment will cost you... three thousand taels."
That night, Yi Weichun bit down on the bedding as he was repeatedly pulled back by the ankle. The bed creaked for three days and three nights.
In a daze, he heard his chosen-one employer order his servants to send ten thousand taels of gold, enough to fill the entire room, and even pile up a small mountain in the backyard.
Yi Weichun: ...
Okay, fine, chosen ones like you can have their way.
"Bonus Scene"
Yi Weichun hugged the gold, stuffing his clothes until they bulged, but his back and waist ached, and his legs were weak.
He hadn’t even taken two steps before someone caught him in their arms.
"Where are you going?"
"Away from you."
Looking into that person’s dark eyes, Yi Weichun realized something was wrong.
Oh no!!!
