Eventually, the teenage girl also let go of Lin Fan, allowing him to catch his breath.
He had to admit that it was quite enjoyable being held like this, but he could do without the suffocating part.
After some more searching of his memories, he remembered that this girl was called Qiao Qiao who was the childhood friend of Xia Yu. Rather, it was better to call them childhood sweethearts.
Someone had been at the door of the Xia Family's house when Lin Fan had woken up, so they had heard the commotion from inside.
In a small village like theirs, it was hard to hide anything, so soon the news of Xia Yu waking up had been spread to every part of the village.
The moment that Qiao Qiao had received the news that Xia Yu had woken up, she had dropped everything she had been doing and rushed over to the Xia Family house.
Then the moment that she came in and saw Lin Fan sitting there, she couldn't control herself as she threw herself at him.
It took a while before Lin Fan was finally able to break free, though it would be hard to say that he didn't enjoy it.
Once he did break free, the first thing he did was calm them down because he knew that if he didn't calm them down first, he wouldn't be able to do anything. It took quite a bit of comforting before they finally calmed down and Lin Fan had a chance to ask his questions.
Of course the first question Lin Fan asked was, "What happened?"
Since Xia Yu had been in a coma for an unknown period of time, Lin Fan wasn't certain what happened during that missing gap in his memories since Xia Yu didn't have any memories to pass down to him.
When he asked this question, it caused some more tears to come out, but then the mother told him about everything that had happened.
He had been in a coma for two weeks now, with his vital signs fluctuating. They had almost been certain that he wouldn't make it through, so that was why they had been so shocked to see Lin Fan wake up.
Lin Fan couldn't help giving a secret bitter smile at this.
If he was here now, the most likely thing that would happen was that Xia Yu hadn't survived or he wouldn't be here…
But of course, he couldn't just tell everyone this.
After learning about what happened to him, Lin Fan started asking about the village.
When they heard these questions, everyone was surprised since they never expected these questions from Lin Fan, but they still answered it.
The father was a high ranking hunter, so when it came to the hierarchy of this village, he did have some power. That also meant that he knew much more than the average person about the workings of the village.
After hearing everything, Lin Fan fell silent as he started arranging his thoughts.
After all, he was still unclear what had happened here, so before doing anything, gathering information was key.
Had he been transmigrated again or was this still part of the trial?
If he had been transmigrated, what should he do?
If this was part of the trial, what was the goal?
Of course, the worst part of all of this was that he didn't have a single bit of his cultivation.
Even though he never had something like cultivation back on earth, it was still hard for him to lose it after transmigrating to a cultivation world.
Once he sorted out the information, Lin Fan realized that there was nothing in this village that connected to the Ancient Era Ruin at all…
Could it be that he really had been reincarnated again?
Seeing how silent he was, the mother couldn't help asking, "Xiao Yu, are you alright?"
Lin Fan didn't answer at first since he had been deep in thought, but when this was asked a second time, he came out of his thoughts.
He looked at the people in front of him and then shook his head as he said, "It's nothing, I just had to gather my thoughts."
Then when he was about to say something else, before the words could come out of his mouth, there was a gurgle that came from his stomach.
There was a silence that filled the room, but then everyone burst into laughter.
Without any hesitation, the mother stood up and started heading out as she said, "I'll get something for you. I already made something in case you woke up, so I just need to heat it up."
Then after she went out, Qiao Qiao also stood up and followed her as she said, "Mother, I'll help you with that."
After they left, the father also left since he still had to go out for the hunt today, leaving Lin Fan with his new little sister.
Since he never had a little sister before, he really didn't know how to handle her. Especially since she was nothing like the little sister she had on the Blue Star Planet.
However, it was quite easy to handle her since she was still a little kid, so they ended up playing until the food was ready.
Lin Fan spent the next week recovering in bed. At the same time, he tried to learn as much as he could about this new world.
The bad thing was that this new world was an ancient world, which meant that information transfer technology wasn't as good.
Other than information on the village, a few other villages nearby, and the city that they all surrounded, there wasn't much other information for Lin Fan to learn.
But Lin Fan also didn't have time to learn more since he had other things to do.
Since this was in ancient times, food technology wasn't as developed, so this village relied on both hunting and farming to feed its people. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that they depended on good hunts to feed them since over half of their food came from hunting.
Lin Fan was one of the best hunters since he had learned from his father, so in the few weeks without him, the food supply of the village had suffered. So when he finally recovered enough to go back out with the hunting party, the people of the village were filled with joy.
Lin Fan wasn't used to this body that didn't have any life energy, but he was still able to use a bow properly because this was Xia Yu's body and he had Xia Yu's memories. Even though he had personally never shot a bow before, Xia Yu's body remembered how to shoot it perfectly.
On the first day back, Lin Fan had the greatest catch, scoring several birds and rabbits.
However, that wasn't all that he had found.
As he had been scouting the forest, he had found a wolf corpse along with several smaller corpses that were clearly its cubs as well.
It was clear by how it was rotting that it had already been dead for several days, so Lin Fan wasn't interested in taking this corpse back with him since there was no way to salvage any meat from it. But when Lin Fan was about to leave, he suddenly heard a noise coming from not far away.
Following that noise, he came up to a tree and looking down into a hole in the trunk, he found that there was a cub that was making these noises. Based on the sorry condition that the cub was in, it was clear that this cub hadn't eaten for several days. It was already a miracle that it had been able to survive this long.
Lin Fan knew that there was no merit in him taking this cub, but his conscience wouldn't let him leave it out here alone, so he brought it back to the village with him.
The other hunters clearly didn't approve of Lin Fan bringing this cub back with him, but since he was their best hunter, there was nothing that they could really say. Especially since Lin Fan had said that he would take care of this cub himself.
Since Lin Fan had already made that decision, it meant that it wasn't any of their business.
Naturally his little sister was overjoyed about the cub and soon the two of them were running around everywhere together.
In just a few months, the cub grew up and had become a full sized wolf. It was even so big that his little sister could ride on it and she definitely rode on it, going all around the village on the back of the wolf.
Of course, the wolf didn't just keep his sister company, the wolf also came along with Lin Fan on his hunts after a bit of training.
With the keen sense of smell that the wolf had, Lin Fan found it much easier to find prey and he was able to increase his daily catch even more.
Just like this, he continued hunting for food during the warm seasons and stayed home during the cold seasons, only hunting from time to time when they wanted a certain kind of prey.
He wasn't sure why he was in this situation, but Lin Fan had completely adapted, taking on the identity of Xia Yu.
In this manner, he lived this life for a year.
But after that year, there was something that suddenly changed his new life as Xia Yu.
