Chapter 38: Don't Provoke Me Anymore
"Where did your mother kidnap me from? What was my original name?"
Su Qing lowered her head and looked at Liu Baozhu. Her eyes were as dark as a cold lake. Liu Baozhu felt his body turn cold and his scalp go numb when she looked at him like this. He could not control his fear of her.
"I remember that you were wearing pink silk when my mother carried you back. You kept crying and saying that Xiao Xi wanted to go home. My mother said that she would carry you back to Su Zhou."
After Liu Baozhu finished speaking, he looked at Su Qing in horror like a deflated ball.
"Sister-in-law, that's all I know. I really don't know anything else."
Xiao Xi? The host's name was Xiao Xi?
Su Qing had obtained two important pieces of information. One was the name of the original owner of the body, and the other was the city where she had been abducted from.
Su Zhou. She would pass by Su Zhou on her way to Jingshi Daoist sect. She decided to do a thorough investigation in Su Zhou to see if she could find out the original owner's background.
Since she knew what she wanted to know, there was no need to keep Liu Baozhu around.
Su Qing's eyes turned cold. Liu Baozhu saw the killing intent in her eyes and got up to run, shouting for help.
Su Qing picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the back of Liu Baozhu's head. Liu Baozhu's body rolled down the mountain slope and fell into the grass, motionless.
Su Qing wanted to go down and see if the person was dead, but Qiu Yongkang called out to her.
"Su Qing, Shui Sheng is back. We'll leave immediately."
Su Qing looked down the hill and saw that Liu Baozhu was not moving. His forehead and back of his head were covered in blood. He looked like he would not survive.
"What happened to him?" Qiu Yongkang walked over and asked.
Su Qing replied expressionlessly,""He fell down."
Then, Su Qing turned around and left. Qiu Yongkang looked at Liu Baozhu, who had fallen down the hill. Since Su Qing did not want to save him, Qiu Yongkang did not care and followed Su Qing out of the forest.
Ji Shui Sheng had already snatched the two horses back. Su Qing noticed that one of the horses had blood stains on it. The person who snatched the horse had not returned.
Ji Shui Sheng saw Su Qing return and glanced at her. Seeing that she was safe and sound, he shouted to the team, "Let's go!"
Liu Baozhu's two friends saw that only Su Qing had returned and Liu Baozhu had disappeared. They wanted to ask Su Qing but were stopped by Ji Shui Sheng.
"Get lost," he said.
They didn't dare to approach Ji Shui Sheng, who looked like he was possessed by a demon, so they shouted at Su Qing,"
"Where's Liu Baozhu? what did you do to him?"
Su Qing did not even look at them and walked forward. The two of them were so anxious that they did not dare to get close. They could only go into the forest to find Liu Baozhu.
"Did you kill him?" Qiu Yue asked when she saw Su Qing walking past her.
Su Qing looked at her coldly and Qiu Yue felt a chill run from her heels to her scalp. The air seemed to have frozen.
She swallowed her saliva and quickly called out to Ji Shui Sheng, "Brother Shui Sheng."
Ji Shui Sheng looked at her coldly and ordered her without mercy, "Shut your mouth."
Qiu Yue felt extremely wronged. Since she was young, Ji Shui Sheng had never berated her like this. It was all because of Su Qing. She was the one who had done something bad, so why was brother Shui Sheng still protecting her?
Su Qing glanced at Ji Shui Sheng and was surprised by his defense. He did not ask about Liu Baozhu when he came back, as if he believed her unconditionally.
Su Qing didn't need anyone to help her with her own problems. She walked to the car and said to Qiu Yue coldly, "Don't provoke me again, or I'll make you regret living. "
Qiu Yue was so scared that her entire body turned cold. The killing intent in this woman's eyes was too frightening. When she thought of the scene of her killing the bandits, Qiu Yue shuddered. She did not dare to look Su Qing in the eye and quickly lowered her head.
"Su Qing, I will keep an eye on her," Qiu Yongkang said guiltily to Su Qing. He was doing this to protect his sister. His instinct told him that Su Qing was a woman of her word and would not give face to anyone.
Su Qing looked at him coldly, then turned around and left without saying a word.
"Qiuyue, Su Qing is your Savior and grandfather's Savior. Remember this."
There were a few elderly people in the car, so Qiu Yongkang couldn't be too direct. He had to save some face for his sister, but he also warned her.
Qiu Yue nodded with a wronged look in her eyes. The Big Brother who used to listen to her and take care of her had changed. He had been poisoned by that woman.
Ji Shui Sheng's expression was grave as he walked very quickly in front. The tense air made the people of Peach Blossom Cove not dare to complain about being tired and they all sped up to follow him. There were more and more disaster victims and they all wanted to leave the Guocheng boundary as soon as possible. Therefore, even if Ji Shui Sheng and the others walked very quickly, they still could not shake them off.
It would be useless even if they got rid of them. Along the way, they would meet disaster victims everywhere. They were not all disaster victims carrying baskets. There were also rich people in carriages mixed in with the fleeing crowd.
These rich people all brought hatchet men to guard the courtyards, strictly defending against the disaster victims. Anyone who dared to come close would be whipped.
They were pulling food and soft things in their carriages. The refugees looked at the food with red eyes. Even if they were beaten, they wanted to get a bite.
Su Qing saw that some people had begun to look for families with young ladies and whispered among themselves. Some families had sold their children in order to survive and to give their daughters food to eat.
There were too many of such things and it was impossible to manage all of them. Ji Shui Sheng and the rest only needed to protect their clansmen from these people's harassment.
They walked until the sky turned dark, but they still hadn't left Guocheng Jie. It was hard to travel in the dark, so Ji Shui Sheng found a flat area for everyone to rest. He brought Li Daniu out to look for a water source.
Su Qing followed Aunt Qiu to cook, but Aunt Qiu refused to let her do anything.
"You should go and rest."
"Aunt Qiu, I like to cook."
Su Qing had no choice but to speak up. How could she level up her cooking skills if she didn't cook? Her Wargod abilities were only at level 15, and he had to get stronger as soon as possible in this chaotic situation.
"Alright then, your cooking is delicious."
Aunt Qiu saw that Su Qing was insistent, so she did not stop her. It just so happened that no one knew how to cook the snake meat, and they were afraid that they would do it wrong.
Without salt and water, it wouldn't taste good.
At this time, all she needed to do was to cook it well. Su Qing cut the snake meat into pieces and stir-fried it with wild scallions, wild ginger, and chameleon plant. This way, she could at least ensure that there was no fishy smell.
The aroma of the stir-fried meat made the rich drool. Some people came over to take a look and wanted to buy some to eat.
"Three taels of silver for a spoonful of meat. You can put in the salt when you go back."
Ji ShuiSheng made an exorbitant demand. That spoonful of meat was not even enough to fill a bowl. Usually, it would not even cost a tael of silver,
However, in this critical period, even gold was not as valuable as food. A giant python had hundreds of pounds of meat. He could sell some of it now and buy food and salt when he reached Jincheng. fre ewebno vel.com
They still had a musk deer, which would be enough for tonight's dinner.
No food could be made without water. The rich could not fight hunger, and their precious stomachs could not eat grass roots and tree bark. Those rich people did not lack a few taels of silver, and soon, several families came to buy snake meat.
The people of Peach Blossom Cove did not have any objections. If they sold more, they would have enough money to buy food to eat on the road.
Some people obediently took out money to buy meat, but some people didn't want to spend money and still wanted to eat meat.
