Transmigrated to a Turbulent Era: Almost Eaten by Famine on Day One

share time: 2025-10-13 00:32:46

Modern office worker Su Xiaoman was pulling an all-nighter on a project when she suddenly transmigrated to the third year of Jingyuan in the Daxin Dynasty—a hellish time where drought, floods, and locusts ravage the land. Waking up in a village of starving villagers, she’s immediately labeled a “disaster-bringing outsider” and surrounded by people ready to cook her for food! In a panic, she pulls out a lighter (her emergency office gadget) and flicks it on, scaring the villagers into kneeling and chanting “Messenger of the Fire God.” To survive, she uses her modern agricultural knowledge to teach them to grow drought-resistant sweet potatoes and fight locusts with plant ash—only to catch the eye of Gu Zhao, a cold-hearted hunter who sees through her “midnight instant noodle heist” and secretly protects her from skeptics. As she balances fooling the superstitious villagers and winning Gu Zhao’s trust, will this pajama-clad “godsend” turn the tide of the famine… or get exposed as a fake and end up on someone’s plate?
