It was silent. The fire reflected in her pupils was getting closer and closer to the explosive. Song Jinghuan could even hear her heartbeat.

At the critical moment, her hand was suddenly grabbed.

Song Jinghuan was shocked. What kind of expert was this? She actually didn’t sense anyone approaching at all.

Without any time to think, she quickly took the match in her right hand with her free left hand and threw it in the direction of the fuse of the black gunpowder.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. The fuse was about to be ignited.

Unexpectedly, another man in black appeared and caught the matchstick firmly in midair.

There were two of them.

This was what it meant for a warrior to die before they could worry.

She was no longer worried that she would be killed by the black powder if she couldn’t escape. She was worried that her death would be in vain.

Oh right, there was also the knockout powder given by Sister MO Yuan.

Song Jinghuan reached out to touch the small bag. Unexpectedly, before she could touch it, her left hand was grabbed by the person behind her.

She hit the person behind her with her head, but the other party dodged first.

The other party seemed to always be able to predict her actions.

Song Jinghuan thought to herself, “I’m so angry.”

“Heh.” An angry and bone-chilling chuckle sounded behind her. Song Jinghuan shrank back from the cold voice, then froze on the spot.

Her hands had been let go at some point. She turned around stiffly and saw the person behind her.

Song Jinghuan felt a lump in her throat and jumped onto someone.

“Big Brother.”

The way she called him big brother was filled with dependence and fear.

Wasn’t she afraid of death?

Of course she was afraid. She had yet to become a female general, nor had she married a handsome man like her sister-in-law. She had not seen her little nephew born, nor had she seen Brother Hao get married.

There were still so many things she had yet to do. She was extremely afraid of death.

However, she was a member of the Song family. Her grandfather and father had left, and her brother was not around, so she had to protect Great Xia for them. She could not be afraid.

Song Jingchen’s hands trembled at his sides. He felt the little girl hanging on him tremble slightly, but he didn’t throw her aside.

Without saying anything else to comfort her, he looked at the man in black holding the matchstick. “You Yi, open it.”

After a while, he took out a dagger and pried open the wooden boxes one by one.

Song Jinghuan leaned against her brother and looked back in confusion. The more she saw, the darker her face became. “Why are they all rocks?”

The tent was filled with wooden boxes, but only a few near the entrance of the tent were filled with black gunpowder.

Song Jingchen wasn’t surprised. If only Xiao Qirui’s men had found this place, he might have believed that it was filled with black gunpowder, but this girl had also found it.

It wasn’t that he didn’t believe in Song Jinghuan’s ability, but it was too simple.

It was as if the enemy was telling them that this was where the black gunpowder was stored.

He carried Song Jinghuan out and paused before saying, “Bring two for Jiajia to play with.”

You Yi took two of them. After some thought, he put one of them in his pocket and took another one with his free hand.

Two were given to Miss by Young Master, and the other was given to her by him.

When the time came, he would get Miss to make a wooden kite for him alone. It would be perfect.

The two of them did not stay for long, and quickly left.

When they returned to a mountain range where they had parked their horses, they saw three horses leisurely eating gra.s.s, but they did not see Shen Yijia, who was supposed to be guarding here.

Song Jingchen’s heart skipped a beat. There was a faint commotion from the other side of the mountain range.

Seeing the three horses, Song Jinghuan’s eyes lit up and he guessed, “Big

Brother, is Sister-in-law here too?”

Song Jingchen ignored her. He grabbed the back of her collar and pulled the person off him, walking towards the source of the sound.

Song Jinghuan was speechless. Big Brother was still the same big brother! She jogged after Song Jingchen.

“Sister-in-law.”

Shen Yijia paused and turned around to see the person running towards her. She grinned and opened her hands, preparing to give her a hug of love.

Unexpectedly, Song Jinghuan suddenly stopped three steps away.

Shen Yijia blinked and followed her gaze to look behind her. She puffed out her chest and said proudly, “I realized that these people were sneaking around nearby. I suspected that they were from the Wu Kingdom, so I tied them up and taught them a lesson.”

Song Jinghuan looked at the nine people who had been thrown together in a pile. They were tied up and their mouths were gagged. He swallowed.. Was there a possibility that they were not from the Wu Kingdom but their own people?
