"Sister, what kind of things have we encountered here? If you say it's bad luck, you can travel back in time after dying. If you say it's good luck, you can't eat enough or wear warm clothes after traveling back in time, and you have to flee from famine."

Lin Qiye sighed.

When Lin Jiuyue saw the appearance of Lin Qiye, the "little adult", she burst out laughing.

"Haha, Qiye, do you know that you are only a ten-year-old kid now? You look so funny in this state."

Lin Qiye: ...

After returning to the Lin family, Lin Dongming and his family had already packed up their things and were waiting to escape the famine with the villagers at dawn the next day.

"Hey, where did you two go? I thought you two had found a good way out, but I didn't expect you to come back in disgrace."

Lin Jiuyue and her brother ignored Liu Xiaohua and went straight into the house.

The two people in the room looked at each other.

The original owner and his wife lived such a miserable life that they didn't even have a decent piece of clothing, let alone food.

"Sister, luckily I saved some food on the mountain, otherwise we would be the first time travelers to starve to death."

"Let's take it one step at a time. When it gets late, we'll go up the mountain and get the things."

It's late at night.

From time to time, the voices of villagers could be heard in the village. Lin Jiuyue and Lin Qiye sat up suddenly.

"Qiye, hurry up, let's go to the mountain and get all the stuff. Otherwise we'll be left behind by the main force."

The two of them went up the mountain quietly in the dark, and deliberately avoided the villagers.

"Qiye, how long will it take?"

Lin Jiuyue had just traveled through time and didn't have very good control over this body yet. He had also walked so far in the dark and was already a little tired.

"Sister, we're almost there, right away."

Lin Qiye walked in front and said in a low voice.

After a short rest, Lin Jiuyue followed Lin Qiye and continued to climb up the mountain.

Suddenly, my foot slipped.

"ah!"

Lin Jiuyue fell down the hillside with a thump.

"elder sister!"

Lin Qiye's anxious voice came from not far away.

Lin Jiuyue was stunned for a moment and it took her a long time to respond.

"Here I am."

Not long after, Lin Qiye came over.

"Sister, are you okay? Why are you so careless? Come on, let me pull you up."

Lin Jiuyue stood up and brushed off the dirt on her body. Suddenly, she felt something sticky on her collar.

It was too dark, and Lin Jiuyue had no idea what it was until a bloody smell reached her nose, and then she realized she was injured. And the sticky stuff was her own blood.

However, now is the critical period for fleeing famine, and Lin Jiuyue has no time to treat the wound on his face.

"Sister, why does it smell like blood? Are you injured?"

Lin Jiuyue said "hmm".

"Well, that might be the case. Never mind for now. Let's go get some food first, or we'll starve to death on the road."

After hearing this, Lin Qiye didn't care too much. He thought about checking Lin Jiuyue's wound after arriving at the cave.

There are tinder sticks stored in the cave, so you can see more clearly.

"Sister, let me support you~"

As soon as Lin Qiye's hand touched Lin Jiuyue, he felt a burning sensation.

"Sister, you, you feel so hot, are you having a fever?"

Lin Qiye's tone was filled with anxiety.

My sister had just traveled through time and her physical strength hadn't recovered much. She was about to start fleeing the famine, and if she fell ill at this time, it would be a disaster.

"Huh? No? I just feel a little hot and weak. Nothing else."

It was still dark, and Lin Qiye didn't know what Lin Jiuyue's current situation was, so he had to help Lin Jiuyue towards the cave with great effort.

After taking just two steps, the jade pendant on Lin Jiuyue's neck began to emit starlight.

"Sister, your neck, the jade pendant on your neck is glowing."

When Lin Jiuyue heard what Lin Qiye said, she looked at the jade pendant around her neck.

Sure enough, the jade pendant was emitting a faint light. After a while, it returned to its original state.

"Sister, what's going on?"

Lin Jiuyue shook her head blankly.

When the original owner was born, a master came to the village and said that Lin Jiuyue would have a disaster in his life when he was sixteen years old. If he could get through it safely, it would be fine. If not, he would become stupid at best, and die at worst.

After hearing the master's words, the original owner's parents were so frightened that they lost two of their three souls. After they came to their senses, they begged the master to save Lin Jiuyue.

The master sighed and then gave Lin Jiuyue the jade pendant. He said it was blessed and would bless Lin Jiuyue. He also warned the original owner's parents not to let Lin Jiuyue take it off.

The jade pendant stayed with its original owner for sixteen years, and he never took it off even to take a bath.

Originally, Lin Jiuyue didn’t believe in these superstitious things, but when she thought about the fact that she and her brother had even encountered something like time travel, what else was unacceptable?

"Qi Ye, do you think this jade pendant has other secrets?"

The two talked as they walked, and soon arrived at the cave where Lin Qiye had hidden the food.

Lin Qiye found a tinder and lit a pile of firewood in the cave.

"Sister, I remember Lin Dongyang (the original owner's father) and his wife said that this jade pendant was given by the master and can keep you safe. Maybe there really is something strange going on?"

After Lin Qiye finished speaking, he looked at the jade pendant on Lin Jiuyue's neck.

Just as the two were observing carefully, the jade pendant emitted a dazzling light again.

This time, the light was much brighter than before. It blinded Lin Jiuyue and Lin Qiye. Fortunately, they were in a cave, otherwise they would have been seen by the villagers.

When the two opened their eyes again, Lin Jiuyue was horrified to find that the jade pendant on her neck had disappeared out of thin air!

"Sister, the jade pendant is gone!"

Lin Qiye widened his eyes, looked at Lin Jiuyue's empty neck, and said in disbelief.

Lin Jiuyue frowned.

How could the jade pendant disappear out of thin air? This is totally unreasonable!

"Qi Ye, do you think this jade pendant could be some kind of golden finger for space?"

Lin Qiye: ...

"Sister, it's not even daybreak yet, and you're already daydreaming?"

Lin Jiuyue was brought back to reality by Lin Qiye's words.

Yes, being able to travel through time after death is already a gift from God. Why am I still thinking about such a great thing as space?

"Haha, I'm just saying. If this is really some kind of space in a novel, then wouldn't I, your sister, be a favorite of God?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled and shook her head.

Even if such a good thing really happens, it probably won't be my turn, because I haven't done anything great.

"Sister, I think you've read too many novels. Okay, let's be realistic and pack these things quickly. If we don't get down the mountain, we won't be able to catch up with the main group in the village."

Lin Jiuyue nodded, and she and Lin Qiye packed up the hidden food one by one.
