Chapter 61: The Conflict Between Heaven and Man



No, although we cannot change the laws of nature, we can prevent disasters and minimize them."

Gao Zhijun suddenly came to her senses and realized that she should not be trapped in a dead end. Since she is a modern person, she should use her modern knowledge to help the people here.

The laws of nature are indeed irreversible, and even modern times cannot change them, but they can be prevented. The main thing is to transfer the villagers from low-lying villages to the state capital and resettle them. If the houses are destroyed, let them be destroyed. As long as the people are safe, the houses can be rebuilt.

If you want to do this, the prefect must come forward.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to find the prefect and ask him to send soldiers to evacuate the people.

I am unfamiliar with the place and it is impossible for me to meet the prefect. The only way is to find the soldier guarding the city and ask him to take me to see the prefect.

Gao Zhijun thought and acted, and wanted to borrow a carriage from Manager Tong.

"where are you going?"

Huo Jinqian grabbed Gao Zhijun's hand and asked anxiously.

"I'm going to find the officer guarding the city gate and ask him to help find the prefect. He wants the villagers living in the low-lying areas to be moved into the city. If it continues to rain like this, the people will really drown.

I cannot ignore them knowing they are in danger, I want all those people alive."

Gao Zhijun pulled her hand away and said to Huo Jinqian.

Although she is cold-blooded, she really cannot be indifferent when faced with innocent lives.

Her cold-bloodedness is only directed at people in peacetime, when everyone is calculating how to make a living.

The people here have no calculations, only helplessness.

As a modern soul with a higher education, she cannot take human life lightly.

"I'll go with you!"

Knowing that she wouldn't listen to anything he said and that he couldn't ignore her, he stayed with her.

No matter whether he had to go through fire and water, he would accompany her without hesitation.

"But your hand?"

Gao Zhijun knew that he wanted to accompany her, but she didn't want him to take risks with her.

She didn't know what kind of person the prefect was. If he was a corrupt official who took human lives lightly, she might be killed if she went there.

She didn't want to implicate others, and couldn't let her own affairs implicate the Huo family or even Huo Village.

Besides, he had an injury on his hand, and the wound couldn't come into contact with water.

It's raining heavily outside. What if the wound gets wet?

"It's okay! The wound has almost healed."

Huo Jinqian knew that she didn't want to take him with her, but he couldn't do as she wished.

Seeing that he was determined to go, Gao Zhijun said in a bad tone: "Do you know what this trip means?"

"I know. That's why I'm going with you.

No matter what the outcome is, I will stay by your side.

Zhijun, don’t you understand my feelings for you?”

Huo Jinqian knew that he might not be able to come back after this trip, so he wanted to take this opportunity to confess his feelings, otherwise he was afraid that he would not have the chance in the future.

"I don't know what you mean, so stop talking nonsense."

Listening to his confession, Gao Zhijun's heart beat very fast, as if it was about to jump out.

This feeling of being out of control scared her, and she was afraid that she would become the kind of person the Pavilion Master described.

She cannot have any weaknesses. She must work hard to make money in ancient times, to be prosperous in ancient times, to be a salted fish in ancient times, and then find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to live a pastoral life.

Men are the obstacles that prevent her from drawing her sword, men are the stumbling blocks that prevent her from becoming the richest person, men are the obstacles that prevent her from being a salted fish, and even more so, they are the obstacles that prevent her from living a pastoral life.

Therefore, always remember that staying away from men means staying away from danger and cherishing your life.

Seeing that she didn't dare to face him, Huo Jinqian made an excuse. He didn't let her escape. He grabbed her hands, made her look directly at him, and said lovingly, "I said I like you and I'm attracted to you. Can you give me a chance and become my fiancée?"

Gao Zhijun's mind suddenly froze, and everything went blank.

What did she hear?

He said he was pleased with himself?

No, I can't be the person that the Pavilion Master said. At this time, another me ran out.

"He confessed his love to you, so just agree to it!"

"No, you must not accept him. Forget what the Pavilion Master said."

"What the Pavilion Master said isn't entirely true. How can someone die from falling in love? That's nonsense, okay?"

"Why not? Don't forget, there are many cases of people committing suicide for love, killing each other for love. Isn't this proof?"

"You're just making a specious argument. Aren't there many classic romances? Like Liang Shengbo and Zhu Yingtai, or the Legend of the White Snake. Aren't these love stories beautiful?"

"Don't forget, Liang Shengbo and Zhu Yingtai both died for love in the end. The Legend of the White Snake is even more heartbreaking. Xu Xian betrayed his love, and the White Snake flooded Jinshan Mountain, causing great suffering to all. Is this kind of love good?"

"I can't argue with you. Mr. Huo is not that kind of person. Give him a chance. Maybe you can find a beautiful love and live a happy and sweet life with him here."

"What if the result is the opposite? Will I die again and have such a good life again next time, be reborn or travel through time? I dare not gamble, nor do I want to gamble. I just want to do what I want to do and live the life I want."

"It is not the behavior of a real man to be a coward and retreat before trying."

"I'm not a man, I'm a woman. I just want to live a good life and not talk about love."

"But your heart was beating so hard just now. Why deceive yourself? Giving him a chance is giving yourself a chance, isn't that good?"

"No, don't say anything more, I have made up my mind."

"Forget it, I won't say anything more. You're on your own. I hope you won't regret it!"

In the end, Gao Zhijun, who didn't want to fall in love, defeated Gao Zhijun, who wanted to fall in love.
