At this moment, Shi Touyu was sitting cross-legged on the kang with her eyes

closed.

She didn’t say a word, silently counting the time in her heart as instructed by

Boss Qian.

This place was so poor that there wasn’t even a clock. She counted m her heart to 1000 seconds as Boss Qian told her, estimating when the time was almost

up.

Shi Yu opened her eyes and spoke to Da Paozi, who was happily counting the money at the moment.

“In the direction of my virgin girl, there is water flowing. You need to take

someone to check it out quickly.”

“What?” Da Paozi put down the money.

“My little ghost told me that the virgin girl is in trouble and needs to walk on water. Quickly take people to put out the fire. If the fire is not extinguished, there will be big disaster!”

Da Paozi was half-believing and half-doubting.

He walked outside the house, thought for a moment, then turned back and locked the door from the inside. He then walked out of the yard, and not long after, he saw thick smoke rolling in the direction of Auntie Apo’s house.

“What the virgin girl said was right!” Da Paozi admired her as he ran towards the fire. Seeing him leave, Shi Yu quickly ran to the kang, wrapped up the roast chicken and steamed bun in cloth, and carried them on her back. She opened the window and jumped down.

Why could she escape so easily?

Originally, after Da Paozi bought a daughter-in-law, the first thing he should have done was nail the windows shut from the outside. But Xiao Qian told Shi Yu to act like a Grand Immortal, scaring him so much that he forgot about it.

This gave Shi Yu and Xiao Qian an opportunity.

Shi Yu, carrying her escape provisions, climbed over the low wall of the courtyard, and quickly ran towards the village entrance using her memory of the way she had come.

Meanwhile, Xiao Qian, at a different location, had entered the courtyard with Auntie Apo in front of her just a few minutes before these events occurred.

As Auntie Apo was pulling the door bolt, Xiao Qian suddenly lifted the basin in her hand and smacked it over her head in the split second she lowered it.

Auntie Apo didn’t have time to react before the basin was slammed on her head. Xiao Qian opened the door, kicked her inside, grabbed the oil bowl on the stove, and ran out. Xiao Qian had targeted Auntie Apo’s injured spots, so Auntie Apo’s fighting strength rapidly decreased despite her age. It happened so quickly: Xiao Qian attacked her, stole her oil bowl, and bolted the door from the outside before Auntie Apo could react.

In other words, Auntie Apo was locked inside her house.

Why didn’t she run like Shi Touyu did?

It was because her windows were nailed shut from the outside, as she had previously bought a girl and didn’t want her to escape. Now she had dug her own grave.

Auntie Apo could only watch as Xiao Qian sprinted towards the firewood pile, poured oil on it, and after a burst of black smoke, the fire ignited immediately.

Xiao Qian didn’t hesitate and started running. She knew that in a few minutes, Shi Yu would also come running out.

Auntie Apo cried out at the top of her lungs. Her son, Dagen’er, next door, was kneeling on the kang, piously washing his younger brother. When he finished and took a sip of water from a bowl, the taste was so strange…

Hearing Auntie Apo’s shouting, he pursed his lips.

Grandma Huang was really right – the little ghost from hell is tempting him to open the door to take a look.

No way!

He had to have a son!

Xiao Qian ran swiftly through the cold wind, the winter sun and the declining village forming the backdrop.

Maybe some people saw her, maybe nobody saw her, but that didn’t matter. No one could stop Boss Qian’s impulse for freedom.

Why did she choose to run during the day?

That’s because at night, she and Shi Yu were unfamiliar with the paths, and if they didn’t manage to escape, they could easily fall into a ditch and die. At this time, most people were eating or hiding inside because of Shi Yu’s deception.

Their chances of success were higher now.

By the time someone realized they had been fooled by Shi Yu, it would be too late. Those who pretend to be gods and ghosts may not even last until night.

It was easier for Shi Yu to reach the village entrance, but not for Xiao Qian, who was too far away.

Auntie Apo’s house was probably on fire by now, and everyone must be busy trying to put it out.

But it was still too far to the village entrance. Xiao Qian had run almost halfway when she was spotted by someone.

That person was none other than Second Brother from Auntie Apo’s family. Today, they ate dinner quite late. When he went out to fetch firewood, he saw someone running towards him – wasn’t this the daughter-in-law Third Brother’s family had bought?

Second Brother thought she might be trying to run, so he grabbed a sickle from his yard and chased after her. Xiao Qian saw a man with a knife running towards her, and knew that she could only turn back on this road. After all this effort, was she going to fail now?

Suddenly, a horse and carriage rushed over, and Shi Yu waved her hand and shouted to Xiao Qian, “Boss Qian! Get on quickly!”

She pulled the reins, and the horse stopped. Xiao Qian climbed on without hesitation. This thin horse, carrying two not-so-fat girls, seemed to be struggling.

“When did you learn this skill?”

“When my dad and I went abroad, I studied horse riding at a manor! I know a little bit about training horses too! Hold on to me, don’t fall off, we don’t have a saddle!”

“Thank God for the decadent life of capitalism!”

At this point, they were only about ten meters away from Second Brother.

Shi Yu had already run to the village entrance, but seeing that Xiao Qian hadn’t arrived yet and fearing something wrong, she saw the richest family in the village’s horse and cart outside, which was used for hauling com. She unhitched the cart and rode only the horse, then returned and saved Boss Qian just in time.

Second Brother could only watch helplessly as Xiao Qian and Shi Yu sped away on the horse.

He wanted to stop them, but the horse was giving it everything it had, and with its weak body, it was carrying the two girls forward. If he tried to stop them, he would surely be kicked and injured. As a result, he could only watch as Xiao Qian and Shi Yu, in this incredible way, escaped.

As they ran out of the village entrance, Xiao Qian looked back and saw the village engulfed in thick smoke, not knowing how badly the fire had spread.

Shi Yu, with Xiao Qian, rode the horse over the bumpy stretch of road and entered the winding mountain path.

“Boss Qian, do you trust my riding skills?” Shi Yu looked at the narrow path and swallowed hard.

-I don’t.” Throughout the journey, Xiao Qian had come to realize that it was a miracle Shi Yu could ride the horse here with the help of heaven. Asking her to traverse such a path would be difficult.

“Good, because I don’t trust them either. What do we do now?”

“Let’s run. Horses don’t have an advantage on mountain roads, and they’re prone to falling when going downhill because they like to slope their bodies to the side.”

“Why is there a horse in a mountain village in the first place?

“Do you still have time to think about the philosophical problems like the chicken-or-egg question right now?”

Xiao Qian, hardholding Shi Yu, ran forward. No one was chasing them from behind yet, but she knew it would not be long.

It took at least two hours to drive down the mountain road, and if people wanted to run out, it would take at least half a day. Moreover, they had to maintain full speed.. Xiao Qian and Shi Yu, as girls with limited physical strength, could be easily caught and dragged back, but even with only a slim chance of survival, they had to courageously run forward!
