If I'm not mistaken, that person, like his wife, comes from the future and is equipped with advanced technology. Even if I bring a lot of things my wife gave me, I'm still no match for that person.
What's most despicable is that the person was in cahoots with the islanders.
He hated himself for being incompetent and unable to send this crucial message back, and felt even more sorry for his wife. He feared he might not make it back alive this time.
As he lost more blood, his consciousness began to blur, and the faces of his family appeared before his eyes: his parents, his wife, the dog, and Xiangxiang...
His chest heaved violently, he coughed a few times, and then he completely lost consciousness.
Jiang Jiuniang followed the scent she had left on Lu Baichuan and found herself surrounded by graves with signs of fighting, indicating that a fierce battle had taken place there.
"Lu Baichuan!"
The aroma was nearby, but the surrounding area was full of graves, and Lu Baichuan was nowhere to be seen.
The fragrance was fading, indicating that Lu Baichuan was seriously injured and his life was slipping away. If he wasn't rescued soon, he would have to stay in these mountains forever.
"Lu Baichuan!"
She wandered through the graves, looking very anxious. The fragrance was fading and had become very faint. She couldn't be sure where Lu Baichuan was, so she could only search the surrounding area.
No matter how she called out, Lu Baichuan did not respond.
Lu Baichuan dreamed of his wife. In the dream, his wife was particularly fierce, telling him that he must return alive, otherwise she would find a way to go to the afterlife. He should just pretend that everything here was a dream.
"daughter in law……"
His parched lips moved slightly, his voice extremely hoarse, and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Lu Baichuan! Say something!"
"Can you at least give me a response?"
He was locked in a coffin, where the oxygen was scarce and he could barely breathe.
But he could clearly realize that he wasn't dreaming; his wife had really come to find him, just like when she rushed from Jingzhou to the capital overnight to save him.
She arrived when things were at their most critical moment.
"daughter in law……"
His voice was hoarse, and because he was underground, his voice couldn't be heard at all.
"Bang bang bang!"
He slammed his body against the coffin lid with all his might. His wounds were bleeding, and the bleeding was even more intense with each violent impact, but he seemed not to feel the pain. He used all his strength to make a sound as he slammed the lid against the coffin.
Jiang Jiuniang was on the verge of collapse from searching. She wiped away her tears and prepared to look elsewhere when she heard a crashing sound not far behind her.
It was late at night, and the area was full of graves. If it were anyone else, they would probably have wet themselves in fear. But Jiang Jiuniang was overjoyed. She turned around and ran over there. Once she confirmed that it was one of the graves, she took out her tools from her spatial storage and started digging.
"Bang bang bang!"
Lu Baichuan was still ramming the car. Jiang Jiuniang was worried about him and shouted, "Stop ramming! Stop ramming! I know you're inside. Save your energy!"
Her voice was trembling with tears; she couldn't bear to think about Lu Baichuan's current situation, but she moved her hands even faster.
Soon a coffin was revealed. It wasn't new; it had been buried underground for several years, which meant that the original corpse was still inside, and Lu Baichuan was locked up with the original corpse.
The coffin was very large, and it usually took several strong young men to lift it, but Jiang Jiuniang didn't care about that. She dragged the coffin out with her bare hands and then pried it open.
The moment the coffin lid was opened, she saw Lu Baichuan's face, which was deathly pale, and his body was covered in blood. The strong smell of blood was extremely pungent.
Jiang Jiuniang dragged the man out and, sure enough, saw a pile of white bones under him.
Lu Baichuan had completely fainted. Jiang Jiuniang dragged him into her space to treat his wounds and then went to the blood bank to get blood plasma for him to transfuse.
Seeing his weak but steady breathing, Jiang Jiuniang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
His wounds were terrifying; they were all tiny, deep cuts that caused pain and continuous bleeding, but they wouldn't kill him immediately. Instead, he could clearly feel his life slipping away and watch himself walk towards death.
Lu Baichuan's life was saved, but Jiang Jiuniang dared not rest because there was still no news of Qin Jian.
She had promised Peng Yuan that she would bring Qin Jian back safely, and she couldn't just leave him to fend for himself.
Fortunately, when Qin Jian risked his life to be with Xinran, Jiang Jiuniang had also put incense on Qin Jian.
The incense on Qin Jian's body showed no signs of dissipating, which at least proved that he was not in immediate danger. However, the place he was in was quite far from here, and it would take some time to get there.
Jiang Jiuniang didn't use any means of transportation; she simply traversed through the forest, discovering many disturbed graves along the way.
Those people are utterly depraved; they dig up any grave they see.
Jiang Jiuniang was furious and thought that once she caught those bastards, she would make them taste the suffering that Lu Baichuan had endured.
If she doesn't come tonight, Lu Baichuan will die in that grave.
Once he truly dies, the fragrance on his body will completely dissipate, and Jiang Jiuniang will have no idea where he is.
Even now, Jiang Jiuniang is still shaken. If she had been any slower, would she have never seen Lu Baichuan again?
By the time Jiang Jiuniang found Qin Jian's location, it was already broad daylight.
The surrounding woods were quite dense, and there were no graves here, but Qin Jian was nowhere to be seen either.
She thought he was injured and hiding, but after searching around, she couldn't find him and no one answered her calls.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept from behind, and Jiang Jiuniang quickly dodged, only to have a figure flash past her.
"Brother Qin?"
Jiang Jiuniang couldn't believe it; why would Qin Jian attack her?
But Qin Jian acted as if he didn't recognize her. After failing in one move, he launched another attack on Jiang Jiuniang.
After exchanging a few blows with him, Jiang Jiuniang discovered that his overall strength had increased significantly.
This wasn't Qin Jian's original strength; it seemed like someone had forced him to grow stronger, causing immense damage to his body. Every fight he did depleted his bodily functions, and once those functions were exhausted, he would be finished.
Jiang Jiuniang was getting anxious, knowing she couldn't continue fighting Qin Jian. During the exchange, she struck Qin Jian on the back of the neck with a palm. A normal person would have fainted, but Qin Jian didn't react at all and turned around to continue attacking Jiang Jiuniang.
Holy crap!
Jiang Jiuniang was almost hit. When she got closer, she could see that Qin Jian's eyes had turned red, clearly indicating that he was being manipulated.
But this technology is simply not possible now. She instantly remembered the familiar person she met in Cangcheng. Could it be that person who did it?
What exactly does he want to do?
But now is not the time to think about these things. The main task now is to get Qin Jian back and find out what kind of tricks someone has done to him.
"Brother Qin, please wake up!"
Jiang Jiuniang felt a little tired. Two men had come out, one in imminent danger and the other being controlled. If she hadn't come, wouldn't she have lost two key men?
Qin Jian ignored her completely and attacked her blindly. Jiang Jiuniang wanted to take advantage of this to subdue him, but before Qin Jian could even get close to her, a voice rang out from behind:
"stop!"
