The two quietly headed towards another pond, much to Gu Sinian's dismay.
Looking at the vast expanse of white pond, he couldn't discern any particular color.
"What's the difference between this pond and other ponds?"
"Of course they're different."
The man looked left and right, surveying the surrounding ponds, but still couldn't figure out what was going on.
"To me, they are all the same, there is no difference."
"Is there a difference? We'll let the facts speak for themselves later."
Hearing this, Gu Sinian must understand something. His wife must have discovered something he hadn't noticed.
I'm eager to know why.
He grabbed his young wife's arm and asked, "What's different? Tell us quickly, we need to be prepared..."
Su Ying pointed to a hole by the colorful pond. Gu Sinian leaned closer to take a look and saw that it was just some soil that had been dug up.
It's no big deal.
"A little bit of soil doesn't prove anything."
"Move in a little closer."
Su Ying looked helpless. Did this man have something wrong with his nose? He couldn't even smell such a strong gunpowder smell. She was speechless.
Although Gu Sinian was puzzled, he did as instructed.
He squatted down to look at the soil, but didn't find anything. However, the longer he looked at it, the more he realized that something was amiss.
What did he smell?
The smell of gunpowder, and a very strong one at that. Could this be where gunpowder was buried?
It's a bit unbelievable that such a small area could be used to plant explosives that could destroy the entire Yuxian Village.
Is this the only place that has it?
Su Ying shook her head. "Look more closely. What's the rush?"
Gu Sinian frowned, squatted down, and began searching very seriously. He saw another clue not far away.
So that's where it was.
There are buried wires.
Surprised by his discovery, Su Ying made a shushing gesture to the man.
"Speak softly, or you'll be in big trouble if someone finds out."
Gu Sinian nodded. Fortunately, Yuxian Village relies on fish for a living and has dug many fish ponds. If it were like Qingshui River, it would be troublesome, as it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"Are there any guards nearby?"
"Of course, otherwise why would I be dressed like this?"
Gu Sinian thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.
Where is this person?
"Two groups of people are watching from the nine o'clock and eleven o'clock directions."
The man was a seasoned veteran, having seen all sorts of situations. He glanced casually at the two directions Su Ying had mentioned and immediately sensed that something was amiss.
"There are quite a few people."
"That's right."
Su Ying agreed with what Gu Sinian said. Indeed, it was true. She had just made a trip there and deliberately went to see what was going on.
When I looked, I almost lost my balance.
"What did you do to offend them that they would send so many people to try and kill you?"
He didn't know how he had offended anyone; it was probably because of the various tasks he had carried out in the past that made him a target.
Or it could cost someone their life.
That's why people miss him so much.
He orchestrated this elaborate scheme to kill him.
"Their target is not just me, but the entire force in the garrison; otherwise, they wouldn't have set up such a large-scale operation."
"It seems your father has offended even more people, and he may be trying to kill two birds with one stone by eliminating all of us."
This analysis makes sense... It does seem a bit unreasonable to use so much manpower and resources just to kill one Gu Sinian.
Behind every hero lies the memory of countless people.
But they were killing people who deserved to die.
Su Ying broke out in a cold sweat. "Our little Bao is such a lucky star. If she couldn't predict the future, how would we have been able to take precautions? We would have been dead long ago."
"That's true. If it weren't for our daughter's ability to predict the future, we might..."
He was their target; if he had come with the main force, they might have already blown them to smithereens.
Xiao Bao said he would be blown up.
The reason they haven't taken action yet might be... because they've captured their key figures.
Wei Ting has a lot of influence, or he may have some unspeakable secret.
He was becoming increasingly curious about Wei Ting.
"What do we do now?"
Su Ying pulled the man over, "You help me block for a bit... I'm putting all these explosives into my spatial storage..."
Hearing Su Ying's audacious plan, Gu Sinian swallowed hard, realizing for the first time how crazy his wife was.
Gu Sinian rejected Su Ying's suggestion without even thinking.
"I disagree. This method is too risky. What if they trigger the explosive engine and it explodes? You'll lose your space then?"
Su Ying didn't believe her space was so fragile. Her space was so magical, it could hold so many things and even had an insurance function.
Living in a space is also possible.
Why can't we plant bombs?
Her lawn is so wide and large, what's wrong with putting some explosives there? It's no big deal for her.
"I've decided to offer up my grassy area to store explosives."
Gu Sinian wanted to dissuade him, but he had no better suggestions. After all, it was explosives with a timer... What if the enemy detonated it prematurely during transport?
Isn't this taking the lives of all the villagers in Yuxian Village with them?
He can't do it.
The young wife has such a wonderful space; it must be because she's unaware of it.
"That's all we can do."
The two reached an agreement: Gu Sinian would provide cover while Su Ying diligently dug up the explosives.
Their eyes lit up when they saw a bomb, and the couple exchanged a glance in the air.
"Gu Sinian, come take a look... Does this thing have a timer function?"
The man leaned closer to take a look and nodded. "Yes. This is the latest type of time bomb from the United States."
"Then what should we do?"
"What else can we do but put it into the space? Let it explode if it wants to. Let's test the waters and see if it's dangerous to the space."
"OK."
Su Ying was not one to hesitate; she acted immediately. With Gu Sinian as cover, she stored the discovered bomb directly into her spatial storage without dismantling, removing, picking up, or dismantling it.
Su Ying didn't enter the space, so she didn't know if the bomb had exploded or not. She could only wait a while before going in.
After all, the bomb will explode if it is moved, which is something Gu Sinian just explained to her.
"How long after a bomb explodes does it typically cease to be a threat?"
"More than ten minutes."
Su Ying hadn't been waiting long. Although she had used her mind to throw the bomb into the grass in her space, she was still worried that the bomb would destroy her space.
To verify this, Su Ying took out two guarantees from her spatial storage to test whether the space was still there.
She reached out and grabbed the steamed bun from the space, and it appeared in her hand, plump and juicy.
With a delighted exclamation, she said, "Gu Sinian, our plan works! The bomb can't threaten my space, and we can still retrieve the steamed buns."
“That’s great, let’s do it this way. I’ll cover you as you defuse all the bombs in Yuxian Village… Then let’s see what they can use to bomb Yuxian Village.”
The couple looked at each other, waiting to see what would happen.
