After Her Divorce, She Escaped With A Strong Man To Farm

Chapter 127. If You Can’t Get Out, This Will be Your Grave
Ji Shuisheng led them deep into the mountains. Initially, the surrounding environment was still clear and bright, but the fog became thicker as they walked. The man had an ominous feeling and called out to Ji Shuisheng.

“Brother, why is there such a thick fog?”

“This mountain is like this. It’s always foggy.”

Ji Shuisheng turned around and said before continuing to walk deeper.

“Follow them and see what they’re up to. If you feel something’s wrong, kill them.”

The man gave an order to his men behind him, and they quietly took out their weapons. They were a type of circular scimitar. When these scimitars were put together, they were circular. When fighting, they could turn from one into two, from a circle to a Crescent. They could fly out and take people’s heads. They were extremely sharp.

Ji Shuisheng could feel the intense killing intent without even turning his head. A cold glint flashed across his deep eyes as he suddenly pulled Zhong Yong and ran towards the forest at the side.

When the man saw that Ji Shuisheng had run away, he led his men to chase after him. However, he realized the fog was even thicker after entering the forest. He could not even see his fingers in front of him. They could not even find each other, let alone the two villagers.

“Come out, all of you, come out.”

The man in the lead shouted in all directions. Ji Shuisheng sneered and replied,

“I’ll use you guys as an experiment. If you can walk out, you’ll live. If you can’t, this will be your grave.”

That man threw the flying knife in his hand toward the direction of Ji Shuisheng’s voice. Ji Shuisheng shot down his flying knife with an arrow.

That man rushed over after confirming Ji Shuisheng’s position, but he didn’t expect to trigger a mechanism. He was squashed by two huge rocks and only had time to let out a miserable cry.

The two huge rocks returned to their original position after squeezing people in. Ji Shuisheng was very satisfied with the mechanism set up this time and did not care about the other people in the array. In his eyes, these people were already dead.

Ji Shuisheng had set up the formation according to the five elements and eight trigrams formation that his foster father had taught him. Outside the eight trigrams formation, there was also a bewildering fog formation. An ordinary person would get lost in the bewildering fog formation but not be in danger of losing their life.

If someone could break through the fog array, they would activate the eight trigrams array. Those who did not know the location of the array would die without a doubt. In the eight trigrams array, there were giant rocks to kill people and a device to pierce the heart with thousands of arrows.

Ji Shuisheng had also set up a double formation to be cautious to ensure that others would not discover the secret in this mountain.

“Brother Shuisheng, you’re so awesome, you’re awesome!”

When they were leaving the mountain, Zhong Yong’s eyes were filled with adoration as he excitedly said to Ji Shuisheng,

“Remember …”

“I won’t tell anyone.”

Before Ji Shuisheng could finish his lesson, Zhong Yong helped him.

“Right, let’s go!”

Ji Shuisheng left the mountain with Zhong Yong. Before he left, he looked at the boundary stone that had the words ‘Pearl mountain’ written on it. After memorizing the location, he led Zhong Yong to chase after the group.

Because they didn’t have horses, it took them two days to catch up with Qiu Yongkang and the others outside An City.

Qiu Yongkang had been buying time for them to rest, or else he would have had to spend another two days to catch up.

“Shuisheng, did you get the money back?”

Old master Qiu looked at the travel-worn Ji Shuisheng and Zhong Yong and asked with concern.

“I’ve found it.”

Ji Shuisheng took out the silver ingots that he had earned from that man and passed them to Qiu Yongkang.

“You have to be more careful in the future. There are too many bad people outside the mountain.”

Seeing that the money had been recovered, the old man instructed.

When Qiu Yue saw that Ji Shuisheng had brought the money back, half of her previous suspicions had disappeared. However, she still felt that something was not right. How did he get it back? Since they knew who the thief was, how could they lose money?

“Shuisheng, we must go into the city to replenish our food supplies.”

Qiu Yongkang pointed at the empty food cart and told Ji Shuisheng that the remaining food was enough for a meal of congee. They hadn’t eaten lunch yet, and if they made another congee meal, it would all be used up.

“Alright, let’s eat first.”

These few days, Ji Shuisheng and Zhong Yong did not dare to start a fire in the mountains for fear of attracting other people’s attention. The game they hunted was also eaten raw or wild vegetables and fruits. Therefore, he urgently needed to eat some regular food in the human world.

Su Qing didn’t reach out to cook the congee because the progress of making congee was no longer increasing. It would only change when she made a new dish.

While resting, she started to make cotton-padded clothes again because the progress of making cotton-padded clothes was fast.

She didn’t want to know where Ji Shuisheng and the rest had gone. Everyone had their secrets, and prying into other people’s secrets was something only bored people would do.

“Zhong Yong,”

Madam Li’s eyes could already see a faint figure. She couldn’t wait to see her son.

Su Qing glanced at her. There was still one day to go before the seventh day. Madam Li’s eyes were no longer as dull as before. She should be able to see some people now.

“Mother, mother.”

Zhong Yong hurriedly came over to support his mother. His face was unshaven, and his head was covered in withered grass and soil. After entering the mountains for a few days, he had become like a savage.

“Yong’er?”

Madam Li’s hands trembled as she held her son’s face. She couldn’t see her son’s face clearly, even if she was anxious. A blurry face was swaying in front of her eyes as if a layer of fog separated it. She wanted to see it clearly, but the fog couldn’t be dispersed.

“Mother? You can see it?”

Zhong Yong waved his large hands in front of his mother’s eyes. His voice trembled, and there was a kind of wary surprise in his voice.

“Not yet. Su Qing said I would only see in seven days.”

Madam Li shook her head and smiled. She was now very confident in Su Qing’s medicine. She had drunk many bitter drugs in the past, but she couldn’t even see the light. After taking Su Qing’s pills, she could feel the changes in her eyes every day.

Today, she could even see his figure. Just one more day, just one more day, she could see her son’s face.

When Zhong Yong heard his mother’s words, he was pleasantly surprised. He went over and knelt in front of Su Qing. He cupped his fists and said to Su Qing gratefully,

“Su Qing, you’ll be my benefactor if you keep an eye on my mother. I’ll beat up whoever you ask me to!”

Su Qing raised her eyes and looked at him indifferently.

“I beat up whoever I want to beat up,”

Her words were rather arrogant, but none of the villagers of Peach Blossom Cove doubted her. Among the people present, only Shuisheng could defeat Su Qing.

Zhong Yong hesitated for a moment, then said to Su Qing, as if he had made a great decision,

“Then? Then I’ll give you my life.”

Zhong Yong was kneeling with a face full of sincerity. Su Qing glanced at him. She nodded.

“Alright!”

Madam Li could not help but look in Su Qing’s direction. It was a white mist, and a cold figure sat in it.

There was a trace of worry in Madam Li’s eyes. If she could see with her eyes, she would rather be blind for the rest of her life.

Ji Shuisheng and Qiu Yongkang ate two bowls of porridge and pulled the horse carriage into the city. The fewer people there were, the safer it would be. The others packed up and prepared to hurry on their journey.

Su Qing kept the cotton-padded jacket. She could no longer make cotton-padded jackets in the carriage, so she did not waste any time picking up the half-finished riding boots and continued sewing.

In the past, Ji Shuisheng was the one who drove the carriage when she did the work. Now that Ji Shuisheng had entered the city moving, the carriage was thrown to Zhong Yong. Zhong Yong was pleased, and this big mouth of his never stopped talking.

“Mother, my big brother said that Jingshi Dao is excellent. When we reach Jingshi Dao, we will build a house. I have the strength to follow big brother to open up the wasteland and grow food. I will let you eat your fill every day.”

Su Qing raised her head and looked at Zhong Yong. Could Ji Shuisheng farm in peace?

“Have you guys heard? The Empero’s teacher let the barbarians in to burn, kill, and plunder.”

“That’s too hateful. As the Emperor’s teacher, how can you do such a thing as betray your ancestors? “
