All they knew was that this fairy really did possess magic; she could casually toss out such a large ball of water—something a normal person would never dare to do, especially since she didn't have anything on her to hold water.
This miraculous scene directly confirmed the authenticity of her identity, leaving the people in the distance stunned.
Grandma...is she a fairy?
Bai Lianhua stared wide-eyed, her face filled with disbelief, biting her lip and remaining silent... An illusion! It must be an illusion!
Seeing this, Qin Qing breathed a slight sigh of relief. It was worth it not to waste half a bucket of water in her space!
She then turned around and untied the ropes. The girl immediately knelt on the ground, her disheveled face filled with piety and gratitude.
"Fairy... Fairy Maiden, thank you so much for saving my life!"
Qin Qing helped her up and smiled.
"I was also asked by Aunt Chen to go back and check on things!"
The girl froze, her eyes instantly reddening, her nose stinging with tears—her mother…
After Qin Qing's scolding and persuasion, the group of people dared not mention the sacrifice again!
A few days later, Qin Qing began to teach them how to make tents to protect the fields and crops from freezing damage by snow, and also to store snow and water for boiling.
This was her first time working since she transmigrated. Fortunately, making a tent wasn't difficult; she had seen the process before, and the craftsmen in town quickly got the hang of it.
That day, she was studying how to solve the plague, since she wanted to take her children to the south, and she had to pass through these two towns. She couldn't leave without solving the plague.
Although she had some alcohol and tools in her room, it was far from enough, so she had no choice but to resort to her old methods.
"Eldest daughter-in-law, I'm going to lead the villagers up the mountain to find mugwort. I'm leaving the children in your care!"
Just as she finished speaking to Zhang He, Xiao Muyang came out of the house!
"Grandma, I want to go too."
The two little ones behind her stared at her with bright, adoring eyes, making her feel a little helpless. Ever since that day, the three little ones have been especially clingy to her, as if they were afraid she would fly away.
"Okay... but you have to promise me you won't run around!"
Xiao Muyang immediately raised his hand and solemnly swore an oath!
"I swear I will never run away again!"
Upon hearing this, the little girl behind him followed suit and raised her hand.
"The stars swear they will never run away!"
"Yueyue swears she will never run away again!"
The neat and tidy appearance amused Qin Qing and Zhang He, who both smiled helplessly.
That noon, she gathered more than twenty young men, and went with Zhang He and the three little ones, with Bai Lianhua following closely behind.
She didn't believe anything could cure the epidemic! If she weren't the only one who couldn't leave this place, she would have run away long ago.
As soon as Qin Qing got up the mountain, he saw a patch of small trees, with almost no towering trees!
The young men behind him all looked embarrassed and guilty. They had started the fire for wild game, but they never expected that they would accidentally set the whole mountain on fire.
"Fairy, Fairy, we know we were wrong. Please, we beg you, you must help us."
The speaker was named Zhang Erzhuang, the town mayor's son, and as his name suggested, he was a strong and vigorous young man.
Seeing the same expression on everyone's face behind him, Qin Qing didn't say anything more and handed them the drawing of the mugwort he had made.
"This is what you're looking for. If you encounter any small animals, do not kill them! Otherwise, disaster will follow!"
The young people were all taken aback upon hearing this, then nodded solemnly and dispersed.
Xiao Muyang stood beside her and couldn't help but speak.
"Grandma, can the plague really get better? Is that herb called mugwort really effective?"
Although he was young, he knew that the plague usually resulted in death, and he had never heard of a cure.
Qin Qing patted his head and smiled!
"Little Muyang, you must know that everything in the world has its counterpart. Plagues are diseases caused by eating unclean food and drinking dirty water, especially common during years of disaster. The only way to prevent them is to avoid contact, purify water and food, and improve your own resistance. Mugwort has a very good effect on improving this!"
The important thing is that the amount of alcohol she had in her room was simply not enough!
Xiao Muyang nodded as if he understood, and the two little ones behind him nodded as well, looking like they understood, which made Qin Qing laugh.
It was early winter, and the green had not completely faded, but mugwort was still hard to find. It wasn't until nightfall that they found a patch of mugwort.
Early the next morning, she instructed everyone to boil the mugwort into a juice and drink it. The remaining juice and dregs were scattered all over the town.
This project was enormous; even with everyone working together, it took nearly seven days.
Qin Qing had also instructed Zhang He and some women to make masks, so that almost everyone in Pingzhen had one!
People who had been infected with the virus were gradually recovering. When everything settled down, half of Pingzhen's population survived, whereas half of them had died in just one month!
The name of the fairy maiden quickly spread, and almost everyone had heard of her ability to conjure water out of thin air. Eventually, the news reached a certain village.
Xiaocheng is located on the border of the Tianlong Kingdom, a very poor area, which contains two towns, Pingzhen and Dongzhen!
When the authorities discovered the epidemic, they quickly locked down the city, making it impossible for anyone to leave. There were four villages under the two towns, and Shangkang Village was already gone. With the epidemic so severe, they had to find a solution.
The appearance of the fairy maiden's name at this moment was like the last straw; everyone was hoping...
Qin Qing knew that if he wanted to leave, he had to solve the plague, so he decisively persuaded the villagers in Pingzhen to go to Dongzhen to help!
"What? They want us to go to East Town? Isn't that sending us to our deaths?"
The old man who had previously advocated for sacrifices reappeared. Qin Qing later learned that he was the elder clan leader of the town, and even the town mayor treated him with great respect.
Qin Qing frowned, not giving him any face at all!
"You're practically halfway to your coffin, so you'd better mind your own business in the mortal world! Otherwise, you'll get your tongue cut out when you're dead!"
One sentence was enough to choke the old man, turning his face blue and purple, making him look terribly ugly!
The town mayor looked at her, somewhat embarrassed.
“Fairy, I know you are kind, but I can’t let the whole town take risks.”
No sooner had he finished speaking than Chen Erzhuang, standing behind the town mayor, retorted!
"Father! The fairy is only trying to help us atone for our sins. Our two towns have been fighting each other for years, which led to this plague. If we could use this plague to make peace, wouldn't that be wonderful..."
"Shut up! Who gives you the right to interrupt when adults are talking?"
Chen Erzhuang pursed his lips and remained silent, his expression stubborn.
Qin Qing laughed!
"Second Strong Boy, your father is right!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present looked at her, somewhat puzzled.
Qin Qing simply shook his head, a cold laugh escaping his lips.
"It's alright, I understand how you feel, but..."
"Their deaths will all be blamed on you, and the evil deeds you committed will be repaid after death. You'll likely suffer in hell for hundreds of years, but that's alright, you're all alive now. We'll deal with what happens after death!"
