Even though she was so tired that her limbs were weak, Ji Xingzhi did not dare to stay any longer and staggered away from the disaster scene that she had caused.
This kind of snow slope is extremely unstable. She just rolled down the slope and it was already shaky. In addition, that seemingly nonsensical shout actually had a reason. If I had to describe it, that shout was like waking up a sleeping ice dragon.
At this moment, even Ji Xingzhi couldn't help but admire herself. Although she didn't know martial arts, she was well-read and knowledgeable. She could use the geographical environment to protect herself when surrounded by enemies. Although she couldn't fight bravely, she could outsmart them.
However, Ji Xingzhi tragically discovered that her body temperature was gradually dropping and getting colder and colder. If this continued, she would be dead before the men in black arrived.
When Ji Xingzhi was exhausted and fell stiffly in the snow, unable to move, it seemed that God had mercy on her, or that she was not destined to die.
Anyway, when Ji Xingzhi felt that he was about to give up, a childish voice sounded in his ears: "Uncle Qin, there is someone here..."
At this time, Ji Xingzhi slightly opened his heavy eyes, and a little girl's face enlarged in front of him. Seeing the little girl's face, Ji Xingzhi seemed to see the hope of life, but the next moment, his eyes went black and he fainted.
The next day at dawn, we arrived in Wuyang City.
The snow was white and the wind was cold, and people were walking in twos and threes, hurrying along.
In an ordinary yard, many children were sweeping the snow on the ground with brooms, their little hands and faces were red from the cold.
"Where is this?" Ji Xingzhi woke up slowly, and what came into her sight was an ordinary servant's room. The room was simply furnished, with dozens of beds placed against the wall, and Ji Xingzhi herself was lying on one of these wooden beds.
At this time, a little girl came in with a bowl of steaming hot water and handed it to Ji Xingzhi: "Drink it. You are so cold, drink some hot water to warm yourself up."
Ji Xingzhi glanced at the little girl and was stunned. Wasn't this the child of the woman selling steamed buns? Could she still be in Linyi City?
Thinking about this, Ji Xingzhi took the bowl and gulped down all the drinks. Suddenly, he felt his body warm up, and a warm current flowed from his throat to his internal organs: "Thank you."
Ji Xingzhi handed the bowl back to the little girl and said, "You saved me?"
The little girl nodded slightly and smiled, but in a moment, the smile faded: "You don't have to thank me. If you knew where this place is, you wouldn't want to thank me."
Ji Xingzhi was puzzled: "Oh? Then where is this place?"
"This is Uncle Qin's house. Uncle Qin is a famous human trafficker who specializes in selling children." The little girl said with her head down, exuding sadness and desolation.
Upon hearing this, Ji Xingzhi nodded in understanding and said, "Were you sold here by your parents?"
The little girl nodded and snorted, "Hmm..."
"Since you knew that saving me would lead me into a den of wolves, why did you save me then?" Ji Xingzhi said.
The little girl was slightly startled, and hurriedly said loudly: "But you are about to die!"
Hearing this, Ji Xingzhi smiled and reached out to touch the little girl's head. "Yes, I was almost dying, and you saved me. If it weren't for you, I would have frozen to death in the ice and snow. How could I still be talking to you here? What's more important than being alive?"
