Chapter 1: Fleeing from Famine
In the 13th year of Chengshun, Jiangzhou.
A cold wind swept across the land of Jiangzhou, where no rain had fallen for a whole year, and rolled up a piece of yellow earth.
A gray prison van was parked on the bare riverbank.
"Beast! Let Xue'er go!"
"What are you yelling at, you bastard!"
The sharp-faced officer kicked the man in the prison van hard, and picked up the unconscious little girl with his skinny hands.
"This little girl looks pretty good. It would be a shame if she died. Why don't we have some fun with her before that Zhang Sanwangwu comes back?"
The obscene voice, mixed with a hint of excitement, suddenly sounded in the air.
The burly man frowned and said, "I'm not interested in this kind of little girl. I'm going to pee over there. Hurry up, kid."
Who is so blind as to disturb my rest?
Gu Feixue frowned and opened her eyes slightly.
What came into view was a hideous face with a wicked grin.
Oh shit!
Out of the special forces soldier's instinct, before she could react, she headbutted the man in the eyes.
"Ouch!"
The skinny officer cried out in pain and rushed forward in frustration, "How dare you hit your grandfather, you little bastard!"
"Xue'er, run!"
When she heard the woman's anxious cry, Gu Feixue noticed that there was someone else in the prison van next to them.
There were five people in the car, young and old, and they looked like a family.
They were all wearing plain white prison uniforms, stained with blood. Except for one woman, they all looked at her anxiously.
Where is this, she...
She subconsciously wanted to touch her nose, but found that her hands were locked together with a thick iron chain.
Before Gu Feixue could think about it carefully, a flood of memories suddenly flooded into her mind.
When she came to her senses, Gu Feixue's delicate little face had been replaced with an expression of despair.
She was just on a mission and accidentally got herself and the enemy headquarters blown up together. She actually traveled through time and space to the body of this seven-year-old kid with the same name as her, whose entire family was exiled.
She asked why the strength was so different just now!
The people imprisoned in the prison van next to them were the original owner's family.
His father, Gu Lang, was originally the Minister of Revenue. He had lived his life incorruptible and upright. However, he was framed by a villain for corruption and bribery due to a party dispute, and his entire family was exiled.
Damn, this is so unlucky!
The skinny monkey's wailing attracted the strong man who went out to relieve himself.
"What are you doing, little brat!"
Tsk, that’s not easy.
Gu Feixue steadied herself and her eyes moved back and forth between the two of them alertly.
Aren’t the ones who travel through time usually the protagonists? Shouldn’t she be given some super powers as compensation?
What no one noticed was that at the moment when the thought came to her mind, the red mole between her eyebrows lit up slightly for a moment.
Gu Feixue only felt a flash of white light before her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, the scene in front of her had changed.
Her eyes penetrated the long knife in the strong man's hand and saw the prison van key he placed in the sack.
perspective?
Before Gu Feixue could feel surprised, she felt a sharp pain in her head.
Enduring the waves of severe pain, Gu Feixue quickly estimated the position of the prison van and the yamen runners, and an idea came to her mind.
The moment the two people gathered together, the small body shot out like an arrow.
Gu Feixue swam around like a little loach. When the strong man came to his senses, he found that the little girl was standing behind him.
Gu Feixue picked up the bag with her stick and it slipped into her little hand.
Seeing the situation, the strong man was about to snatch it away, but Gu Feixue was one step ahead of him. She rushed to the prison van and opened the cage.
Just kidding, she's the fastest lock picker on the team! She even holds the record for the National Special Forces Skills Competition!
The eldest brother Gu Tingchuan jumped out of the prison van immediately and rushed towards the criminals angrily.
How dare they bully his delicate sister!
Gu Lang, who had always been honest and loyal, gritted his teeth, picked up the sticks scattered on the ground and rushed forward to block the attack of the officers.
He was loyal to the emperor and patriotic throughout his life and never did anything rebellious.
But these beasts were really going too far! They had been causing trouble along the way, but now they were actually going to attack his seven-year-old daughter!
fed up!
Although Gu Tingchuan was only twelve years old, he was ambitious and had been trained in both civil and martial arts since childhood. He fought back and forth with the strong man.
Gu Lang is also in his prime and is not at a disadvantage.
Immediately, the whole family started fighting with the officers, and even her grandmother, Mrs. Gu, with her snow-white hair, picked up stones to throw at them.
The two sides were fighting fiercely when a loud shouting suddenly came from the side.
"Run! The authorities are here to arrest us!"
Accompanied by the cries of children and women and the howling of men, a large group of ragged refugees ran towards them.
Before the Gu family could react to what was happening, the refugees with red eyes rushed to them.
Gu Feixue had small hands and only had time to pull away the eldest brother who was closest to her. She rolled on the ground and hid in the dry bushes nearby.
Gu Tingchuan looked anxiously at the huge group of refugees, searching for his family.
Gu Feixue was a little surprised and asked in a low voice, "What are they running for?"
Gu Tingchuan pursed his cracked lips, a hint of resentment in his eyes. "Jiangzhou is suffering from drought, and the people are living in dire straits. Local officials not only show no sympathy for the victims, but even require these refugees to pay a 'refugee tax'. Otherwise, they will capture them as soldiers and sell them to traffickers for the masters to use. It was precisely because my father wanted to thoroughly investigate this matter that he was..."
He paused, looked into Gu Feixue's clear amber eyes, and forced a smile: "It's okay, I'm here, Xue'er, don't be afraid."
Gu Feixue secretly curled her lips, but still nodded obediently: "Xue'er is not afraid!"
Gu Tingchuan, who was waiting to comfort his crying sister, was a little surprised when he heard this and looked at Gu Feixue.
He had just felt that something was wrong. Why did his usually delicate sister suddenly become so powerful and strong?
Gu Feixue was startled by his suspicious gaze and quickly patted her chest and said, "Xue'er, you have to protect Daddy and Mommy! You can't be a coward anymore!"
Gu Tingchuan was stunned, his eyes a little moist.
As a result of the great disaster, his poor sister grew up early.
The crowd dispersed and the two of them walked over.
The place that was once relatively clean is now in a miserable state.
The panicked crowd didn't care whether they were stepping on the ground or other people's arms and legs. Once they fell down, they had no chance of survival in such a huge crowd.
Needless to say, the two defenseless officers were trampled to death.
After all, Gu Tingchuan was only a twelve-year-old boy, and Gu Feixue clearly felt his hand turn cold in an instant.
"Xue'er, can you go play over there by yourself for a while? Big brother will go find Daddy and the others."
Gu Feixue knew that he was afraid that she would be scared when she saw the crushed corpse, so she didn't refuse and nodded silently.
Sitting down on the flat stone slab beside her, Gu Feixue silently recited her ability in her mind again and slowly opened her eyes.
She saw that a piece of ground in front of her, about the size of two palms, had changed its appearance. Her sight penetrated the soil and grass roots on the surface and saw a small world under the soil. She could even see the crawling insects clearly.
It really is X-ray vision!
Gu Feixue was savoring it when the intense pain came again.
Hmm.
She quickly closed her eyes, adjusted her breathing, and tried not to show any abnormality.
After a cup of tea, the annoying pain completely subsided.
It seems that this ability cannot be used indiscriminately, but this time, it seems that the concentration time was much longer than before.
After roughly figuring out her "golden finger", Gu Feixue felt a lot more relaxed.
It's just a famine! The last time I went on a mission, I caught lizards in the desert and ate them for half a day.
