At this point, Grandpa Liang also asked curiously: "Qingqing, what does it feel like to have superpowers? Why do our vegetables obey you so much?"

Liang Qing knew his grandfather was trying to change the subject, so he explained, "It's just an instinct that follows my heart. It's strange to say, but I feel like communicating with plants is as natural as drinking water and breathing. They all listen to me."

"The world is so big, it's really strange!"

Grandpa Liang was quite impressed. He didn't expect his eldest granddaughter to be so capable.

Even if the end of the world comes, he is the only one in the village who has awakened his supernatural powers.

Now that he has saved so many people, he is even prouder than Liang Qing.

Liang Qing came back, and Song Yao no longer needed to hide the sled, so he took it out from the space.

This is an electric sled that Liang Qing bought before. He originally wanted to use it to shoot a video about life on a sled, but he didn't expect it to come in handy now.

Grandpa Liang and Grandma Liang are weak and definitely cannot handle this long downhill journey, so now is the right time to take it out.

However, considering that Liang Qing was injured, Grandpa Liang made another empty seat available, "Qingqing is injured, come up and sit first. Grandpa is still in good health and can walk down the mountain."

Grandma Liang also called out, "Qingqing, go upstairs and don't let grandpa and grandma worry."

In the end, Liang Qing couldn't bear the concern of his grandparents and sat on it.

At worst, I can go down and switch with Grandpa Song Yao later. For now, Grandpa can just treat it as a warm-up.

Song Yao originally planned to drive, but now that Grandpa Liang was walking, he stayed beside the old man and supported him to prevent him from slipping and falling.

The group continued walking forward along the path down the mountain.

Liang Qingxian left some plants behind to follow Song Yao, and drove a sled with Grandma Liang ahead to meet up with the large group in front to see if anything happened.

After walking about two miles, something really happened.

Liang Qing saw the villagers gathered together, but there was no sign of Xiao Huanggua, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.

She got off the sled and told Grandma Liang to wait for her by the sled. Then she went into the crowd to see what was going on.

There were some familiar faces inside, Li Lian, Er Zhuang, Xiao Yue, and three drooping cucumber vines protected behind them.

Third Aunt's son, Hu Zi, was also there, saying confidently, "Isn't it just a cucumber you want? Why are you getting so mad? We left in such a hurry that we didn't even bring any water. What's wrong with eating a cucumber to quench your thirst?"

Third Aunt also joined in, standing by and saying, "That's right, even if a cucumber becomes a spirit, it's still a cucumber, meant for people to eat. What's wrong with Huzi eating a cucumber? It's not like he's eating your food."

Seeing their shameless faces, Xiaoyue said anxiously, "This is Qingqing's cucumber. You can't do this. If you want to eat it, you should ask Qingqing's opinion."

Li Lian was also furious. If Er Zhuang hadn't stopped her, she would have slapped Hu Zi. "What are you eating? When the spiders came out just now, wasn't it Qing Qing who protected you? Since they can protect people, they are our companions. How can we eat them?"

The villagers nearby also chimed in: "Exactly, how could there be such a person as you? Everyone would be grateful and respectful to their lifesaver, but who would eat someone else's fruit like you? How shameless!"

Hu Zi was spoiled so much that he looked impatient: "Isn't it just a cucumber? Do you need to lecture me? I won't eat it." As he said that, he threw a half-eaten fresh and green cucumber in his hand at the foot and turned away.

Auntie San was also unhappy when she saw this: "Liang Qing is not here, and she hasn't said anything yet. What are you guys yelling about? Is it really necessary for you to stand up for her? You might as well save your energy and go down the mountain."

Li Lian was furious: "You are making up excuses and are shameless!"

As she spoke, she turned her head and caught a glimpse of Liang Qing in the crowd. Her face instantly lit up: "Qingqing, come quickly, Huzi wants to eat your cucumber! Come and see how the cucumber is doing."

When Aunt San heard Liang Qing coming, she turned around and wanted to leave, but she was surrounded by villagers and had no room to escape. So she turned around and called Qingqing awkwardly.

The villagers made way for her, and Liang Qing walked in with a calm expression.

"I heard everything just now, Aunt San. Don't blame me for being harsh. You've really spoiled Hu Zi. We're fleeing now, and we don't know what dangers we might encounter. These plants of mine are our protective force. How could you allow Hu Zi to steal the cucumber fruits?"

Hearing this, the little cucumber behind Li Lian and Xiao Yue also came out and stuck to Liang Qing, looking a little weak and aggrieved.

Liang Qing comforted them, "Okay, the master is here, everything is fine now."

She transferred some more supernatural powers to them and felt that the cucumber vines had become much stronger.

Auntie San was too embarrassed to admit her mistake. "Qingqing, Huzi already knows he's wrong. Just forgive him. He's still a child after all. He was just a little greedy. Look at these cucumbers. There's nothing wrong with them."

After hearing this, Liang Qing burst into laughter.

"Is Hu Zi still a child? Aunt San, I still remember you telling me that Hu Zi was working and earning over ten thousand yuan a month. Now you say he's still a child, who would believe you?"

"Just now, a swarm of spiders attacked, and I sent them to protect you. You should have seen the power of a swarm of spiders. If it weren't for the help of the supernatural plants, you would probably have been parasitized by the spiders that crawled into your clothes."

"These plants have contributed and worked hard. Even though they may not look human, they protect people after all. Even some animals know how to repay kindness. I never thought that humans could be so ungrateful. It's really chilling."

After hearing this, the surrounding villagers also spoke out:

"That's right, Qingqing is right. Hu Zi was really dishonest this time. Look at how much Qingqing has done for our village. Hu Zi is so arrogant that he actually took someone else's things without consulting Qingqing. I would be angry too."

"I agree, Qingqing. Aunt Zheng has chosen to follow you. From now on, you'll be our leader. If anyone touches your things, they're touching everyone's things. Don't you agree?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Since the old village chief is dead, Liang Qing will be our new village chief. He has leadership skills and special abilities. Qingqing, now that everyone has left the village, we will have to rely on you."

The other villagers also agreed: "Qingqing, you are our new village chief!" (End of this chapter)
