Chapter 716: Chapter 664 Rebirth

“Ridiculous! In my previous life, I was framed to death; now, I’ve unexpectedly been reincarnated into the body of an idiot.”

At noon, within a dilapidated house in Shanghe Village, Liu Hun slowly sat up from a wooden bed, a bitter smile on his face as memories flooded his mind, helping him to understand his current predicament.

“Brother, you… you’re awake?”

From the inner room, a young girl who appeared quite young yet already stood tall and graceful, walked out holding a basin of water. This girl was Liu Hun’s sister in this life, Liu Xiaoya.

“Yes, I’m awake.”

Liu Hun nodded, his response was somewhat reluctant, but deep down, he had already decided to accept everything about his physical body.

To Liu Xiaoya, however, this was shockingly unbelievable. One must know that in the three years since her brother had become an idiot, he hadn’t spoken to anyone; and now…

“Brother, you’re not silly anymore?” Liu Xiaoya set down the basin of water and tentatively asked.

“Yes, Big Brother is not silly anymore. From now on, it’ll be Big Brother’s turn to take care of his silly little sister,” Liu Hun said with a light laugh as he stepped off the bed and affectionately tapped Liu Xiaoya on the forehead.

“That’s wonderful! That’s wonderful!”

Liu Xiaoya hugged Liu Hun tightly as tears of excitement streamed down, “My good brother has finally come back.”

Liu Hun was touched by Liu Xiaoya’s genuine emotions, when suddenly, a noisy commotion came from outside the courtyard.

“Damn it, those bad people are here again. Brother, you lie down for a bit; I’ll go drive them away.” Although Liu Xiaoya tried to maintain her composure, a flicker of panic in her eyes didn’t escape the twice-lived Liu Hun.

“What’s going on?”

“Brother, you don’t need to worry about it…” Liu Xiaoya attempted to hide the truth, but upon meeting Liu Hun’s gaze, she couldn’t help but reveal the reality.

It turned out that three years ago, this Liu Hun had acted heroically, driving away three thugs who harassed the village beauty. However, he also suffered a head injury that rendered him an idiot; to cure their son, the Liu Family elders not only spent all their savings but also borrowed money from many villagers. Recently, a few thugs had been coming to their door every day to collect debts, even threatening that if they couldn’t repay the money, Liu Xiaoya would have to settle the debt by marrying their big brother.

After understanding the cause of the incident, Liu Hun went out to the courtyard and saw several unsavory thugs surrounding his parents and making a ruckus. Anger immediately rose in his heart.

One of the thugs with pockmarked face even tried to slap Father Liu.

“Stop it!” Just at that moment, Liu Hun let out an angry shout and appeared in front of the pockmarked man, grabbing his right hand.

“Who the hell are you, pretty boy? You dare to meddle in my business? Looking for a death wish?” The pockmarked man was momentarily stunned, then began to curse filthily.

To Liu Hun, the pockmarked man was a stranger; after all, he had come only to make trouble under the guise of collecting debts on his boss’s orders.

“Just now, was it this hand you were going to use to hit my dad?” Liu Hun didn’t waste words and, seizing the pockmarked man’s hand, twisted it violently behind him.

“Crack!” Accompanied by a crisp sound that echoed around, the pockmarked man’s right hand was dislocated by Liu Hun. In his past life, the reputation of Divine Doctor was not for nothing—he was extremely familiar with every inch of the human body. The pockmarked man, guided by the residual force, fell to the ground with a thud.

Seeing this, the remaining two thugs couldn’t help but inhale sharply… they had thought they were ruthless in a fight, but compared to the man in front of them, they were simply small-time troublemakers.

“Ah… you useless fools, what are you waiting for? Kill him!” The pockmarked man yelled, clutching his arm, not one to let anyone who had crossed him get off easily.

“Yes, Brother Ma!”

Following the pockmarked man’s command, the two thugs tightened their grip on their baseball bats and charged at Liu Hun, swinging the bats towards him.

Watching this, Liu Hun sidestepped slightly, easily dodging the bats. Then he punched out with both fists, landing them precisely on the faces of the two thugs. Instantly, they collapsed to the ground, wailing in pain; although Liu Hun had just woken up and was still somewhat weak, his past life’s experience and technique of instant force allowed him to easily handle these small-time thugs.

“What a pair of good-for-nothings; get lost, I’ll handle this!” The pockmarked man, seeing his men knocked down by Liu Hun with a single move, his pockmarked face grew even more ferocious.

Enduring the heart-wrenching pain in his wrist, the pockmarked man snatched a baseball bat from another lackey and charged right at Liu Hun. He grabbed the bat with his left hand and swung it fiercely towards Liu Hun’s forehead.

“Lout!”

“Brother!”

At this moment, the two elders and Liu Xiaoya’s faces were all as pale as death.

“You’re overestimating yourself!” However, Liu Hun’s gaze was filled with contempt, and with a sidestep, the pocked man’s bat swung through the air, missing its target.

“Ah…” After swinging at empty air, the pocked man, frustrated and flustered, lifted his right leg and swept it towards Liu Hun.

“Dodge it, keep dodging!” the pocked man bellowed, his eyes fixed on Liu Hun.

In his mind, Liu Hun’s frail body, if truly hit by his leg, would be either dead or crippled even if not killed!

What he didn’t expect was that Liu Hun’s face showed no signs of panic but instead, he suddenly lifted his left leg and, with a “bang,” kicked the pocked man accurately in the groin.

“Ah…” Feeling an intense pain shooting up from his crotch, the pocked man collapsed to the ground, clutched his groin with both hands, and howled in agony.

Seeing this, Liu Hun, indifferent to the other’s screams of pain and deaf to the shocked stares of the elders and Liu Xiaoya beside him, walked over to the pocked man and grabbed his other hand.

“Crack!” Before the pocked man could beg for mercy, a clear snapping sound came from his left hand.

Liu Hun may have been a Divine Doctor and a formidable figure in his past life, but he had been orphaned from a young age. To be reborn and feel the warmth of a family was something he cherished dearly. Naturally, having awakened to this scene, his fury was justified.

“Dad… Dad… stop hitting me, aren’t you my real dad, I was wrong, I won’t dare to bother Xiao Ya anymore, just let me go this once…” After Liu Hun beat him severely, the pocked man bore the intense pain in his wrist and groin and pleaded incessantly for mercy.

“I have no unfilial son like you, and Xiao Ya is not someone you can call by name! Remember this, from today onwards, I don’t want to see you around again, or next time it won’t be this simple!” After saying this, Liu Hun gave the pocked man another fierce kick.

This time, the pocked man fainted from pain. Then Liu Hun frowned slightly and turned his gaze to the other few thugs in the scene, asking coldly, “Well, aren’t you going to scram?”

“Yes, yes, big brother, we’re leaving…” Only then did the several thugs come to their senses. Their bodies trembling, they lifted the unconscious pocked man and quickly left.

“Dad, Mom, are you two alright?” After the pocked man and the others had left, Liu Hun paused for a moment before going over to the elders and his sister, asking them with concern.

“Hun… you…” Liu Father’s hand trembled with excitement, “Silly child, are… are you not ‘slow’ anymore?”

Liu Hun smiled and gripped his father’s hand firmly, “Yeah, your son isn’t ‘slow’ anymore. From now on, let your son take care of you and sister!”

“Great! Great! Great!”

Liu Father nodded, and in that instant, it was as if he had become a decade younger.

After a night’s rest, early next morning, Liu Hun woke up early, left a note for the elders, and then headed for the mountains with a basket on his back and a sickle in hand.

The mountains to the north of Shanghe Village were an uninterrupted range, the area closest to untouched nature; it was for this reason that people from the city would come to enjoy the cleanest, most fresh air of nature.

But now, these mountains represented the beginning of Liu Hun’s road to wealth; as a Doctor, particularly one versed in traditional medicine, herbal resources were crucial. Now with nothing to his name, if Liu Hun wanted to alleviate his family’s hardship and start earning money, he had to rely on this mountain.

After about an hour, Liu Hun reached the foot of the mountain. Looking at the lush foliage ahead and the towering peaks, he took a deep breath, a trace of reminisce in his eyes, “This mountain looks like the one I left when I came from the countryside…”

After speaking, Liu Hun shook his head and put those thoughts aside. He had been reborn, and it was time to start anew. In time, everything that belonged to him would be reclaimed. Then, without hesitation, he took two steps at a time and quickly ventured into the mountain.

“Is this… Iron Bone Grass?” Carrying the basket on his back and searching the mountain for almost half an hour, Liu Hun’s eyes suddenly lit up when he saw a clump of what seemed like ‘weeds,’ his face revealing a hint of excitement.

Iron Bone Grass, slightly reddish at the roots, was the best medicine for treating bruising and injuries from falls. And it only needed to be chewed before being applied to the affected area to be highly effective. If he had this Iron Bone Grass, the injuries his father sustained from the pocked man and his group could likely heal quickly.

With this in mind, Liu Hun didn’t hesitate, rushing over to the Iron Bone Grass and carefully digging it up along with its roots. Although the Iron Bone Grass itself treated bruising injuries, if the roots were combined with main ingredients like Heart Burning Grass, it could even be used to concoct Strengthening Erection Pills.

In today’s society, men were increasingly underperforming in bed. If Liu Hun could produce these pills, it would provide a fast track to wealth. In the past, Liu Hun had disdained such things because when he would offer his services, people would clamor to pay him. But times had changed, and no one knew of the title ‘Divine Doctor’ Liu Hun; naturally, he had to rely on these things to make money now.

After carefully excavating the Iron Bone Grass, Liu Hun gathered some other herbs. However, as the sunset neared, he hadn’t found any Heart Burning Grass and felt somewhat disappointed.

“This doesn’t make sense, Heart Burning Grass typically grows where the sun blazes down, but on these mountains, it seems there’s none to be found where the sun beats down the hardest. Based on the conditions of these mountains, it can’t be possible that not a single Heart Burning Grass can be found…”

After a while, Liu Hun touched his somewhat empty stomach and sat down on a rock, smiling bitterly.
