Chapter 118 She Won't Die
Chapter 118 She Won't Die
As the sun set, the woman, who seemed perfectly normal, suddenly erupted in anger.
She suddenly turned around and grabbed Jiang Qi's arm tightly with both hands, her nails seemingly digging into his flesh.
Her voice trembled as she spoke, and her dark eyes were filled with terror.
He was acting like a madman, laughing incoherently.
“None of you will leave alive, especially you outsiders.”
Lu Zhi strode over, abruptly pulled the woman away without a word, and sneered.
"What nonsense are you talking about? We don't really understand."
A tall, burly villager rushed up from behind the woman. His face was grim. He held the crazed woman back while repeatedly bowing and apologizing.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my woman isn't very bright, don't take what she says to heart."
"It's getting late, I'll take her home first. If you need anything, you can come to my house tomorrow, and I'll compensate you."
The woman, captured by her husband, instantly became docile, offering no resistance and letting her body rub against the ground.
His parched lips uttered a few words, then he forced a relieved smile, and finally, as he smiled, tears streamed down his face.
Jiang Qi heard the woman's words clearly: "They will all die, everyone will die, they deserve to die."
Jiang Qi rubbed his wrist, then flipped his palm upwards, revealing a crumpled piece of paper in his hand.
"Brother, did she hurt you?"
Lu Zhi stroked Jiang Qi's arm anxiously, his movements appearing hurried and flustered.
Fortunately, it was clean and there were no traces left.
Jiang Qi grasped Lu Zhi's hand, a slight smile spreading across his lips.
"It doesn't hurt, let's go back first."
"You're getting better and better at acting, Lu Zhi. Let's go out and reward you."
Jiang Qi was certainly aware of this small change, but he deliberately played along.
The woman probably realized her husband was coming, so she pretended to be crazy and used the opportunity of physical contact to pass on clues to him.
The woman was clever enough to both give him clues and get him to compensate her.
Is she a true villager, or is she an outsider like them?
Moreover, Jiang Qi also saw the hopeful look in the woman's eyes when they parted.
Chi Miaomiao was still out of the loop. Being far away, she couldn't see what was happening or hear what the woman was saying.
Her health is deteriorating more and more severely.
Jiang Qi patted Chi Miaomiao on the shoulder and said gently, "It's time to go back, Miaomiao."
Chi Miaomiao nodded blankly and silently followed behind Jiang Qi and Lu Zhi.
If only she could speak. She thought.
On the way back, Jiang Qi concealed his discomfort, but kept rubbing his fingers vigorously in his pocket.
Lin Wanchu and Lu Xue successfully obtained two offerings from A Yue. They were able to draw such a simple and low-risk task thanks to Chi Miaomiao.
However, unlike Jiang Qi's team, which was relaxed, the three returning teams were inexplicably filled with a depressing atmosphere.
Qin Senjing's face, in particular, was so gloomy it looked like it could drip water.
She has an impatient nature and immediately started swearing.
"Damn, how unlucky am I to get this mission?"
"They want women's skin to make the wedding dress, nothing else will do. Where am I supposed to find that? Damn it, I'm so angry."
"What are you looking at? Especially you, Chi Miaomiao, you shameless thing. It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have drawn such a difficult task."
As Qin Senjing spoke, her expression turned ferocious, and she made a move to pounce on Chi Miaomiao.
"Or we could just use your skin, you won't die anyway!!"
Upon hearing this, a chilling aura swept over us, as if even the air itself had become heavy.
Jiang Qi held Qin Senjing's hand tightly; her frantic state was comparable to that of the woman on the ridge of the field.
His tone was like ice, each word like a chilling icy blade, piercing the heart in an instant.
"Speak with respect. This is not a place for you to act wildly."
"Apologize to Miaomiao, or you will pay the price for your actions."
Lin Wanchu and Lu Xue silently shielded Chi Miaomiao, protecting her behind them like a little chick.
In a corner unseen by all the players, Chi Miaomiao blinked slowly, looking at Qin Senjing with a pitiful expression.
But there was a cruel smile in his eyes.
Chi Miaomiao slowly made a gesture, which only Qin Senjing saw and understood.
"I will kill you."
“And.” “Me.” “One.” “Together.” “Down.” “Earth.” “Prison.” “Let’s.”
Finally, Chi Miaomiao slowly touched her neck, her fingers gripping it tightly, and tilted her head to smile innocently at Qin Senjing.
Qin Senjing moved her neck uncomfortably, as if Chi Miaomiao had also touched her neck and was about to strangle her at any moment.
The air seemed to freeze, and Chi Miaomiao's smile bloomed in the darkness, yet it carried a deadly poison.
A chill ran down Qin Senjing's spine.
Her heart sank into an ice cellar; fear, helplessness, and panic intertwined, leaving her completely blank.
Her previous imposing manner was gone. Qin Senjing struggled, her lips trembling, but she couldn't pull her hand away.
Her voice was barely audible, "I'm sorry, Chi Miaomiao."
"Speak louder, Miaomiao didn't hear you."
"Chi Miaomiao, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you!!!"
"Now you can let me go, right?"
Jiang Qi released Qin Senjing's hand and turned to leave.
Lin Wanchu and Lu Xue comforted Chi Miaomiao. Neither of them had eaten; they had only asked A Yue for a few steamed buns before returning to their rooms.
The other players felt that they were just being overprotective and that Qin Senjing had angered them so much that they refused to eat, so they didn't interfere.
After all, Qin Senjing's last words caused quite a stir.
Chi Miaomiao will not die.
Some players tried to subtly inquire about other information, but Qin Senjing glared at them fiercely.
Lu Zhi stood by the door, watching Jiang Qi wash his hands inside.
Jiang Qi's nails were neatly trimmed, his finger joints were clearly defined, and the lunulae on his fingernails were the same curve that Lu Zhixin desired.
Jiang Qi scrubbed his hands vigorously, as if they were dirty, until they turned bright red.
A shadow loomed over Jiang Qi's head, and Lu Zhi's palm, carrying its unique warmth, pulled Jiang Qi's cold hand out of the water.
Wiping away the water stains, Lu Zhi warmed the back of Jiang Qi's hand, allowing Jiang Qi's body to gradually regain its warmth.
"Brother, if you're a germaphobe, then don't have any physical contact with them."
"If you don't feel uncomfortable when you touch me, just touch me more often."
Lu Zhi buried his head in Jiang Qi's neck, nuzzling his neck, his voice muffled.
Lin Wanchu opened the door and saw this scene. She turned around and quickly closed the door again.
Their current posture is like Lu Zhi embracing Jiang Qi from behind, so Lin Wanchu did not disturb them.
No one asked the person involved whether the claim that she wouldn't die was true or false.
Only Chi Miaomiao was struggling with whether or not to tell her savior about her talent.
She is still very useful; her talents won't kill her, and she won't hold the team back.
Moreover, even if Jiang Qi knew, he wouldn't take advantage of her; she blindly trusted him.
Chi Miaomiao also crawled out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, so how could her mind be as simple and innocent as it appeared?
Tonight is Qin Senjing's death day.
