The mottled earth walls, the dim oil lamps.

A bed with old red cloth, exuding the smell of rotting wood.

Shen Yi stared at everything before her, stunned for a long time, finding it hard to accept the reality that she had transmigrated into a small soldier in Baiyun County.

But everything around me felt so real.

Fragmented memories in my mind are becoming clearer.

In a world of demons and chaos, evil spirits swarm.

He used to be a common ruffian, clawing his way up from the bottom rung of society. Finally, he managed to secure a government position, allowing him to live a comfortable life free from worries about food and shelter. It sounds incredibly inspiring.

But why did the other party suddenly die?

Thinking about this, Shen Yi felt a strange pain in the back of her head.

He reached out and touched it, then came away with his hand full of blood.

A blinding crimson between the cracks, like flipping a switch, in an instant, Shen Yi finally shed the hangover-like stupor. A surge of intense pain came crashing down.

"Huff!"

He widened his eyes and gasped for breath rapidly and continuously.

Lowered his head and looked down.

At the foot of the bed was a thin young girl, her face full of terror as she clutched her undergarments.

Just beside him, there was an old man with patched and worn clothes. His hunched body trembled constantly, and he clutched a wooden staff in his trembling hands. Blood plasma dripped from the top of the staff.

Their eyes met, locking in a gaze that spoke of impending doom, a mixture of despair and terror.

"I said..."

>

Shen Yi gritted her teeth, and under the intense pain, her hostility relentlessly slammed against her chest cavity. Please note that the input contained only a closing paragraph tag (`

He stared at the old man, wanting him to put the stick down first.

Just then, the girl suddenly frantically tore off the remaining clothes on her body, clinging to Shen Yi's legs, like a mad beast. She cried out in a hoarse voice: "Master! I give it to you! I'll give you anything! Please let my father go back home!"

The old man loosened his grip, and the stick thudded to the ground.

He looked numb, his eyes vacant, as if that blow had taken all his strength.

Given Shen Ye's infamy in Baiyun County, when the other party opened their eyes again, both his daughter and himself were already left with no way out. Please note that the original content was just an empty HTML tag. I've left it as such in my response.

"Can you just shut up for a moment?"

Shen Yi's eyelids twitched in pain.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

I was already miserable, how could I stand her crying like that?

The scoundrel wanted to forcefully marry the Liu family girl tonight. This old man striking him down is considered doing good for the people, worthy of praise.

He was innocent, yet he got hit with a blow for no reason.

Shen Yi was extremely upset, but she couldn't scold him. After all, in the eyes of others, Captain Shen had only fainted briefly and then woken up again, unaware that he had become someone else.

He pulled the clothes off the bed and slapped them onto Liu's maid, waving his hand away like a fly with no strength, weakly saying, "Get out! Get out!"

This is giving people hallucinations, you know? Back in my former life, at least I could swindle you two out of half a house.

He rubbed his temples, but the hallucination before him seemed to become even clearer.

Current martial arts:

Bone-Piercing Grappling (Mastered)

Demonslaying Sword Technique (Beginner)

You can inject lifespan into martial arts to gain corresponding progress. When your lifespan is less than a year, you cannot continue to infuse it. Your current remaining lifespan: Thirty-four years.Shen Yi read the words above and couldn't help but wonder.

Don't say, according to the remaining memory, the former self was really good at these two skills.

The "Bone-Piercing Grappling Technique" was given by the yamen, and every officer had to learn it. It was considered a specialty skill.

It was precisely because this set of grappling techniques looked so convincing that his predecessor was able to get promoted and become a small leader.

As for the Fuyāo Sword Technique, it was taught to the attendants by a personal guard from the Town Demon Division after a demon plague occurred in Bayun County. It is a genuine martial art for exorcising demons.

But by then, he had already gained some status, and his indulgence in alcohol and women had taken its toll. Compared to learning martial arts for self-defense, he had another way of surviving under the demons.

That is to say, this panel is real, not an illusion?

But that's too much of a mixed bag, isn't it?

Injecting years of life granted him the corresponding martial arts progress. It was no different from taking a salary in his previous life - for every fewer years he lived, he gained less. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The problem is that one's past life was already a complete mess, hopeless and detached, just like a walking corpse. Even though they were getting paid, they could still enjoy themselves for a few years, which wasn't a loss.

But learning martial arts is all about self-preservation. If you're already dead, what use is it?

Can't I practice it slowly by myself?

“Hiss.”

Shen Yi turned her head, wanting to dispel this panel.

Just happened to see the father and daughter again.

Only two figures stood there like wooden stakes, their souls seemingly absent from their bodies.

"Get out of here all of you..."

Shen Yi grinned and pressed his fingers against the back of his head, just about to speak when he suddenly remembered something.

Since he came in the dead of night to forcefully marry Liu, this place is the Liu family. The one who should be leaving is...

Upon considering this, a hint of embarrassment flashed in Shen Yi's eyes.

Just get lost.

This text is currently empty. Please provide me with the text you would like translated between << and >>so I can help!

He rolled his eyes, stood up, reached for his saber, and walked out into the yard in disarray.

It's bad enough to be transported here, but getting beaten and then having to walk home myself? I must have done something terrible in a past life. This is so sad!

　　“…”

The little Liu girl clutched her father's hand, her thin frame trembling under her clothes.

She didn't understand why Master Shen had such a drastic change in temperament. Surprisingly, he didn't torture her or beat up her father. He just left in a sullen mood.

But her eyes still held no relief at having escaped death.

On the contrary, as Shen Yi drew closer to the hospital gate, Liu's pupils gradually constricted, clearly showing that she was terrified to the extreme.

Squeak.

The dilapidated courtyard gate was pushed open.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Yi walked out of the courtyard and took a deep breath of the dry night wind.

He tried to clear his head, but the pungent smell that filled his nostrils made him instinctively wrinkle his nose.

Didn't you forget something?

"All done? Now it's my turn."

A rough voice echoed in her ear, and the stench intensified several times over.

Shen Yi's whole body was stiff, and she glanced sideways.

Only a figure as massive as a small mountain was seen squatting at the entrance of the courtyard.

It could only be seen that its whole body was tightly packed with muscles, its shoulders towering, its black fur glistening, its neck tilted forward, and it was actually sporting a dog's head.

It slowly turned its head to look, reaching a paw into the waistband of its pants and rummaging around.

He then stood up, easily a head taller than Shen Yi. His shoulders were twice as wide, casting a massive shadow on the ground.

"Next time, be quicker. Hunger makes me angry."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yi's expression became complicated as he lowered his head. He finally remembered the way his previous self had survived.

That is colluding with demons to do some business of supplying rations.

With these people pulling strings in the government office, busily creating wrongful cases, they could ensure both demons were well-fed and the Demon Suppression Office wouldn't be alarmed.

For example, tonight, he had already paved the way for the Liu family's father and daughter. After the canine demon finished eating everything, the next day, Baiyun County would be guaranteed to not even have a ripple.

Think it through.

Moments later, Shen Yi squeezed out a smile and bumped the other person's arm with her shoulder, laughing: "You don't know your younger brother's abilities. How could he possibly be fast?"

Having said that, he strode towards the other person, "Let's go, go, go. I'll treat you to dinner tonight, as an apology to my elder brother."

However, that imposing physique remained unmoving.

The content you provided is "". I have removed the tags as requested, and translated the text:There is no text to translate.

The canine demon lowered its eyes, surveying Shen Yi with disdain. "Do you think I'm a fool?"

Having said that, it turned around and lifted the roof, striding into the courtyard.

Taken aback, Shen Yi instinctively reached out to stop him, not even realizing what he was doing. He couldn't understand why his hand dared to move.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

Damn! What the hell does this have to do with me?

He reacted extremely quickly, wanting to pull his arm back, but it was already caught by a thick, furry dog paw.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The dog demon suddenly turned its head, pressing close to Shen Yi's face. Its blood-filled mouth revealed rows of sharp fangs, and viscous saliva dripped from its long jaws like threads.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate! ?

"Shen, you seem to think very highly of yourself."

"Didn't you forget what kind of demon I am? I heard everything inside clearly. You dare betray me?!"

The two came together to commit a crime, but one gave up halfway. The meaning behind this is self-evident.

Between the words, the canine demon's thick thighs slammed out with a thunderous boom!

"No, are you kidding me? You're being so fickle!"

A tremendous force came from his abdomen, instantly causing Shen Yi's brain to go numb. Veins bulged on his neck, and his whole body flew backwards into the room like a broken sack, smashing through the door along the way.

He swore, this was definitely the closest he'd ever come to death.

“To the shameless thing, you deserve to be sacrificed along with my five internal organs.”

Hearing the cold sounds coming from outside the courtyard, Shen Yi slumped to the ground, covering her abdomen with her hand. She looked up at the father and daughter beside her, as thin and weak as chaff. Please note that the content within "<" and ">" will be translated, but any HTML tags themselves will remain unchanged.

He drew his gaze back, panting, "You two couldn't... just... remind me... to go through the back door?"

The old man and the young girl frantically swallowed saliva, as if that was the only way to suppress the scream in their throats.

Their faces were full of confusion, unable to understand why the person in front of them, who should be colluding with demons and evil spirits, was also kicked in.

"Forget it, knife…"

Shen Yi weakly raised her hand. Seeing the two of them looking dumbfounded, she could only remind them again: "Bring me the knife."

Liu Yaotou quickly picked up her saber and handed it over. She just couldn't understand, who was the other party trying to attack? It couldn't be a monster from outside the door, could it?

>

Shen Yi swallowed the coppery blood, gripping the hilt of the knife. Under the gazes of his father and daughter, he suddenly spat out in disgust, "It's so disgusting."

Whether it's the chaotic world in my memory, or the way of survival from my past life, or even the fact that I have to imitate him to barely survive.

Not only is it disgusting, but it's also incredibly boring.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

“...”

Watching the dog demon knock down the courtyard wall and walk into the yard, sticking out its thick tongue to gently lick its paws, it was already ready to eat.

Just thinking about my own skull being held in that filthy dog's mouth, chewed to pieces, and then swallowed with its thick saliva...

Shen Yi's breathing became increasingly rapid, a touch of madness flickering in her eyes.

Okay, okay, that's how you want to play.

My life was hard-won, yours is your own. What makes you think you can play with my life?

The panel unfolded rapidly before his eyes.

<< Imbuing one's lifespan into martial arts, achieving corresponding progress. >>

"Yes, it's the Futai Demon-Subduing Technique. Please help me replenish its power."

Thank you.
