Chapter 198: Passers-by in the Ancient World of Natural Disasters 8
"Have you been back again?"
This was something Ke Xiaoxia had not expected.
Qin Gui nodded: "There was a war in the capital, and then there was an earthquake. We had no choice but to move to another place."
"We experienced drought on the way, and there is still water source where we stay."
"But when the heavy rains started, we could no longer stay where we were, so we started to move."
"It rained heavily for a long time and caused flooding."
"I returned here with the Qin family during the flood. The terrain here is relatively high, so the Qin family settled here."
"But at that time, there were no one here, and I didn't see you..."
Qin Gui had the impression that there were two brothers from the Ke family, but at that time, they were following a woman named Tian Gu and helping her with work.
Ke Xiaoxia was not surprised by this result.
Qin Gui definitely didn’t have her in his previous life.
She asked Qin Gui again: "Did you see Madam Qin and the others again later?"
Qin Gui shook his head: "Drought is happening everywhere. After the water dried up here, they should have left long ago."
"But that woman Tian Gu and Qin Yongyan are both a little strange."
"There should be room for the two of them."
Afraid that Ke Xiaoxia didn’t understand, Qin Gui explained the meaning of space to Ke Xiaoxia.
Ke Xiaoxia was silent for a moment, then said: "I think I have something like what you are talking about."
Qin Gui was a little stunned.
Everyone knows what will happen next. Ke Xiaoxia plans to explain the situation to her family when the time comes and then start stockpiling supplies.
According to Qin Gui, although this place is affected during droughts, it is a good place to go during floods.
Even if there is a blizzard and extreme cold later, there is no need to move.
So they can prepare in advance now so they don’t have to run around during droughts.
Therefore, the thing called space can no longer be concealed.
And storage space is not a very valuable thing for Ke Xiaoxia now, so there is nothing to worry about.
Ke Xiaoxia even thought about the source of the things.
"It was a stone I picked up in the mountains two years ago. The stone was pretty. It seemed that because it was accidentally stained with my blood, the stone disappeared, and then there was a big space in my mind."
"I thought it was strange at the time and didn't dare to tell anyone. Now that I've heard about it, I realize it's actually a good thing."
Ke Xiaoxia smiled with her eyebrows curved.
Qin Gui also laughed when he saw this.
But his focus was a little different: “So, was I the first to know?”
Ke Xiaoxia: “…Yes, you are the first one to know.”
Qin Gui smiled even more brightly.
Grandma Ke, who came back to prepare dinner, asked, "Why are you laughing like an idiot?"
Then the idiot Qin Gui turned to Grandma Ke and said, "Grandma, I'll show you a trick."
Ke Xiaoxia: “…”
Just like he showed it to Ke Xiaoxia, Qin Gui showed Grandma Ke the appearance of the silly roe deer.
Grandma Ke's pupils trembled, and then she laughed dryly twice, and her tone was also dry: "This trick is not bad, where did you learn it from?"
Ke Xiaoxia slapped Qin Gui, stepped forward to support Grandma Ke and said, "Grandma, don't listen to his nonsense. This is not a magic trick. This is a magic weapon, a magic weapon of the immortals."
Ke Xiaoxia helped Grandma Ke into the house and explained the matter from a theological perspective, not forgetting to turn around and glare at Qin Gui.
Qin Gui followed with the roe deer in his hand, feeling somewhat guilty.
By the time we got into the house, Grandma Ke had almost recovered.
"So, Qin Gui received guidance from the immortals. Not only does he have the immortals' magic weapons, but he also knows what will happen in the future?"
Ke Xiaoxia nodded: "That's about it, but there's only so much we can know, we just know the general idea."
After that, Ke Xiaoxia whispered again: "In fact, I have also picked up magical weapons from immortals, but at that time I didn't know what they were and I didn't dare to say it."
Grandma Ke immediately looked at Ke Xiaoxia with concern: "Silly child, you should tell me what's going on. Now we know it's a magical weapon from the immortals. What if it's something bad? If you tell me, we can all work together to find a solution..."
Ke Xiaoxia assured: "Of course, I will tell you if there is anything in the future. I will never hide anything."
*
At lunch time, the Ke family came back and Qin Gui was still next to Ke Xiaoxia.
However, there was no table or food in front of them.
Mother Ke couldn't help but ask, "Mom, it's time to eat, why is there no table?"
Mr. Ke and his two sons also looked confused.
Only Grandpa Ke looked calm and composed because Grandma Ke had secretly told him the reason.
Ke Xiaoxia cleared his throat and said, "Dad, Mom, I'll perform a magic trick for you."
As soon as Ke Xiaoxia finished speaking, Ke Xiaoshi was puzzled: "Sister, when did you learn to perform magic tricks? How come I didn't know about it?"
Grandma Ke slapped Ke Xiaoshi and said, "Shut up and let Xiaoxia perform her magic trick."
Ke Xiaoshi covered his mouth and stopped talking. He widened his eyes and wanted to know how Ke Xiaoxia performed the magic trick.
This scene made Ke Xiaoxia want to laugh.
She curled the corners of her lips, then waved her hand and a table appeared.
There is also the food they are going to have for lunch today on the table.
Qin Gui clapped his hands enthusiastically: "Well, Xiao Xia is awesome, really amazing."
Ke Xiaoxia: “…”
She really couldn't help but glare at Qin Gui.
Grandma Ke also clapped her hands.
Although Grandpa Ke was mentally prepared, he was still a little shocked when he saw the table and food appear out of nowhere.
Not to mention Mrs. Ke and the others who had no warning at all.
Ke Xiaoshi couldn't help but exclaimed "Wow".
"Hey, this, this, what is going on?"
Grandma Ke: "Eat first, and then we'll talk after dinner."
Mr. Ke couldn't eat anymore: "Mom, if you don't explain clearly, how can we eat this meal?"
Mama Ke also said, "That's right, mom, let's talk about what's going on first, otherwise the meal will be boring."
Ke Xiaoshi and Ke Xiaoshan looked everywhere, wanting to know how this table came about.
In the end, Ke Xiaoxia told the story of the space again, still using the reasons of immortal magic weapons and immortal guidance.
People at this meeting are somewhat superstitious, so they can accept such reasons better.
Sure enough, everyone accepted it very well.
Ke Xiaoshi even touched Qin Gui's head with envy and said, "If I touch you, will I also be able to get guidance from the immortal?"
Even Ke Xiaoshan couldn't help but touch Ke Xiaoxia and Qin Gui's heads respectively: "I want the immortal's magic weapon more."
Ke Xiaoshi touched Ke Xiaoxia again: "I want them all, hehehe..."
Ke Xiaoxia: “…”
Mrs. Ke and Mr. Ke were quite proud. They were not as naive as Ke Xiaoshi and Ke Xiaoshan, who thought they could get the same treatment by just touching them.
But they have a daughter who has obtained a magical weapon from an immortal.
Grandpa Ke's focus was different: "What Qin kid said before was that life was not easy. It was probably the immortal's advice."
Qin Gui nodded.
In the end, the meal was still a bit tasteless.
After all, the impact of the immortal's magic weapon is great enough, and from the information the immortal has pointed out, life in the future will obviously not be easy.
After finishing the meal and washing the dishes, everyone gathered in a room again and began to discuss the disaster that would follow and to prepare for the future.
