Hearing this scheme, Qin Qing could hardly contain her shock, her face filled with astonishment. After all, given her personality, if she heard this, she would definitely settle the child and then rush over to save the person. However, there were already traps set up around them, and she would almost certainly die!
The plan was not only meticulous but also extremely malicious, as if they wished for her immediate death!
Qin Qing was horrified when she heard this, and couldn't help but wonder what she had done to offend Zhang He so much that he would use this method to kill her.
She believed that since transmigrating to the present, she had devoted herself to taking care of her family, worked hard to earn money, and unreservedly displayed her personal space. She had finally made it this far, and after traveling thousands of miles to the capital of Qi to save people, this was the reward she received in the end…
Why does Zhang He hate herself so much?
She thought about it for a long time, but she still couldn't figure out why!
Meanwhile, the search had already begun according to plan, and Zhang He was dragged out and tied to a large tree...
"Where's the carriage? Wasn't it just here a moment ago?"
The old woman's surprised voice rang out, and the villagers exchanged bewildered glances, their hearts filled with doubt and uncertainty...
"Fine! Even a carriage can't go far! Let's proceed according to plan!"
Zhang He was startled by what she saw and quickly looked around, because she knew that Qin Qing, with his personality, would not easily abandon her and her daughter after something like this happened.
A moment later, his gaze settled on the pile of firewood behind the door…
Upon closer inspection, you can faintly see a gray that is different from black!
Before she could even feel a surge of joy, her expression changed as she realized what she had just said and done. From any spot by the door, she could see everything clearly!
In other words, that person already knew her scheme and her ulterior motives.
Thinking this, she quickly looked away, silently repeating "it can't be," but she couldn't help but look up again...
As the group walked out the door, not a single person noticed the gray glint in the woodpile behind it! Zhang He's face gradually tensed up.
The old woman caught her glancing frequently toward the door and asked her in a sinister tone.
What are you looking at?
Upon hearing this, Zhang He froze, quickly averting his gaze with a flustered expression.
"N-nothing..."
As she said this, she glanced again at the pile of firewood behind the door!
The old woman's eyes were deep. After a cold laugh, she walked straight towards the woodpile. Zhang He's face tightened as she watched, her heart filled with a mixture of relief and worry, as well as anticipation.
The old woman led three villagers over. One of the villagers went straight up and reached out to pull away the pile of firewood. Zhang He nervously held his breath and stared intently at that spot.
The next second, however, there was no one behind the pile of firewood!
A sense of loss welled up inside Zhang He, and she stood there blankly, her expression a mixture of relief and disappointment.
Seeing this, the old woman didn't say anything. She directed people to tie Zhang He to the tree, and then led the simple-minded old man into the house to sit down.
Qin Qing leaned against the wall with a sullen face. The cold wind whistled into her collar, but it couldn't hide her icy heart...
If it were a scheme, Zhang He would never have intentionally or unintentionally revealed her location to the old woman when she was already aware of it! This blatant betrayal and implication made her feel incredibly exhausted!
Seeing that the courtyard was empty and Xiao Muyue was tied to the tree, with people lying in ambush, Qin Qing would be captured if she showed up rashly! Even if she had a spatial ability, she couldn't fight against so many people!
A biting wind blew, and Xiao Muyue sneezed violently, but Zhang He seemed not to hear it, completely absorbed in his own world.
Qin Qing couldn't help but feel angry and resentful after watching this!
Just as she was about to launch a full-scale attack, unable to wait any longer, she suddenly noticed that the light on the ground was becoming slightly brighter. Surprised, she subconsciously looked up...
A bright, fiery red light descended from the sky! It rushed towards us at incredible speed!
Qin Qing's eyes widened in shock; it was utterly unbelievable! A meteorite?!
Judging from the direction, the crash site was roughly in this vicinity! Realizing this was the second time, she didn't hesitate and jumped off the wall. The blade in her hand flashed in the night air. The villagers who had been lying in ambush nearby saw the sudden appearance of her figure and excitedly rushed out...
"Quick! Grab her!"
A group of people rushed out of the darkness, staring at Qin Qing with a frenzied and greedy gaze.
But this did not hinder Qin Qing's pace at all. She rushed towards Zhang He with incredible speed, and with a swift movement, her knife struck! The straw rope quickly snapped, and Qin Qing picked up Xiao Muyue and ran outside…
Zhang He was stunned the moment Qin Qing appeared, unsure whether to feel joy or sorrow. As Qin Qing ran out, she followed closely behind. The villagers quickly blocked the doorway, and several scarlet, crazed eyes stared intently at them.
Just then, Qin Qing's lips curled up slightly, and she suddenly pulled back forcefully. Zhang He was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a second, and then followed.
Just as the villagers were about to give chase, the surroundings suddenly brightened. Just as they were wondering what was going on, someone shouted.
"Sky... what's that up there?"
Everyone looked up, staring in terror at the ceiling, forgetting even to run away…
"boom!"
A tremendous impact swept in from behind. Qin Qing held Xiao Muyue tightly, and his whole body was suddenly lifted into the air, uncontrollably flipping in the air!
The meteorite's flash illuminated the entire night sky, and the flaming rock crashed into the surrounding area, instantly igniting the houses in the village...
Immediately following was a rapid rumbling sound. Qin Qing stared wide-eyed at the scene before her, as if the whole world had stopped and time had slowed down considerably.
She saw Zhang He's terrified eyes, his figure being flung through the air, the meteorite striking the villagers and melting their bodies, and the small meteorite igniting the thatched huts and wooden stakes with its sparks…
Then her body plummeted downwards at high speed, and the feeling of weightlessness made her dizzy. At this moment, her fear of heights reached its peak!
A sharp pain shot through her, and she slowly closed her eyes, her consciousness fading. Yet, her hands remained tightly clasped around the little girl in her arms, refusing to let go…
After an unknown amount of time, she slowly opened her eyes amidst a sharp pain, her brows furrowed tightly, her ears filled with the pitiful, frightened, and helpless cries of a little girl!
She wanted to laugh because when she first came into this world, she was also awakened by the cries of a little girl. It was really noisy, but it also made her feel sad and heartbroken.
At first glance, all she saw was Xiao Muxing's face covered in terrified tears.
"Waaah! Grandma... Waaah... Grandma, don't die..."
Qin Qing smiled and was about to reach out to comfort her when she noticed the fire still spreading around them. Startled, she snapped back to reality. Forcing herself to sit up, she looked around and couldn't help but feel grateful for her good fortune…
