Chapter 377: Chapter 377: The Entire Army is Wiped Out
The people beside her were desperately backing away.
But it was too late; the speed at which the fissure spread was too fast.
With the trembling of the ground itself, there was nothing they could do but watch as one after another fell in front of their very eyes.
So, even upon reaching Half Moon Lake, were they still unable to escape this fate?
"Song Yi, you grab onto Little One, and make sure there’s physical contact,"
Jhiang Yuan hurriedly instructed, knowing they couldn’t delay any longer.
They had stood far away, and nearly everyone at the center of the group had suffered injuries.
The fissure expanded to about five meters wide and then began to contract again.
"Oh my god~"
She gasped in astonishment, as such a thing meant those who had just fallen would surely be crushed to a pulp.
"It’s happening again~ Quick, Brother Song, Sister Yuan~"
It was Zhang Kaiyang’s voice, prompting Jhiang Yuan to quickly look back.
Another crack was racing towards the crowd, not far from where they stood.
There was no time to lament the situation there; this place too was becoming dangerous.
"Quickly..."
"Ah..."
Before she could even react, Song Yi had already grabbed them and started running towards the trees outside.
Ahead were Zhang Kaiyang and Fan Qing; the Young Commander and his group also scattered, running outward.
This place was no longer safe, and it was a vicious cycle.
With sand and soil gone, it became apparent that the area was shaped like a funnel.
High on the sides and low in the center, it could indeed hold water if it were a lake.
The journey was arduous; everyone’s heart was racing as they vied for every second.
The ground opened and closed violently, starting with a single fissure and progressing to several at once.
They had reached the trees, yet there was no respite.
The land beyond the trees was in the same dire state, and Jhiang Yuan’s heart sank—this situation, it seemed, was beyond salvation.
"Brother Song, what do we do?"
Zhang Kaiyang was also panicked, clutching tightly to Fan Qing.
She was so scared that she shook like a leaf.
There was no time; Jhiang Yuan pulled Song Yi closer and whispered in his ear.
Song Yi nodded, then staggered behind Zhang Kaiyang and Fan Qing.
With a karate chop, Zhang Kaiyang fell.
Just as Fan Qing turned to look, she too dropped to the ground.
Song Yi was quick and managed to do it without raising any suspicion.
"Quickly~"
The two of them hurried to ensure every person, including Little One, had physical contact with another.
To their side, another fissure had opened.
The trees opposite had already fallen down.
"Close your eyes~"
Jhiang Yuan shouted, and in the blink of an eye, they were transported into space.
Seeing them return, Jhiang Xingzhi and Qin Yue rushed over.
Looking at their dirt-covered, disheveled state, they were overwhelmed with concern.
"My girl, how are you, is it over? Are you hurt?"
As he spoke, he began to examine her body for injuries.
"It’s nothing, Mom. Get something to cover Zhang Kaiyang’s and Fan Qing’s eyes.
Jingjing too; I think the child was scared. When I found her, she had already fainted,"
Jhiang Yuan said and, without bothering to change her clothes, ran straight to an adjacent chamber.
It was a space previously prepared to be a tea room, already furnished.
There was also a low bed similar to a tatami, which she had picked up as a showroom sample from a building material and furniture mall.
She sat cross-legged on it, eyes closed, beginning to sense the situation outside.
Song Yi could probably guess her intentions and stayed by her side to watch over.
The situation outside was deteriorating rapidly.
The gaping earth swallowed everyone who had fallen in.
Escape was impossible.
All other places had cracks varying in degrees.
The Young Commander was holding onto Sister Chun, and neither of them was faring well.
When he fell, he pushed Sister Chun aside, but it was only a matter of a few seconds.
Sister Chun still couldn’t escape the fate of falling, yet the Young Commander miraculously managed to stab his dagger into the fault line.
As he watched Sister Chun fall, he shouted loudly, but no one responded to him anymore.
Soon, the crevice began to contract, and before he could climb up, he was squeezed tight.
Within three seconds, the gap had closed, gushing forth blood.
It was terrifying, Jhiang Yuan shuddered.
"Cough, cough, cough~"
Song Yi hurried forward to support her.
"How are you feeling, are you okay?"
"I’m fine, the Young Commander and Sister Chun are dead."
"Hm!"
Song Yi didn’t say much, as death was the norm at this moment.
Jhiang Yuan continued to close her eyes, unable to pretend to ignore the situation.
The man wanted to call out to her but was afraid that disturbing her suddenly might harm her.
After all, he didn’t understand the rules behind this.
All of them had not been spared, and more and more blood began to ooze out.
Surprisingly, it was the Commander who held out to the end.
He too was in a sorry state, leaning on a cane.
He struggled for a long time when he fell.
"Song Yi, I’m sorry~"
Jhiang Yuan abruptly opened her eyes, not expecting the old leader’s last words to be addressed to him.
"How is it?"
"The old leader is dead, he said he was sorry to you."
As the person involved, Song Yi deserved to know about it.
"How are you doing?"
The other party didn’t even acknowledge, just worried that something might have happened to Jhiang Yuan.
"I’m okay..."
As she said this, she actually spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Oh no, what happened?"
Qin Yue was worried, and except for Ye Mianmian, who was on guard, everyone else was watching at the door.
Seeing that Jhiang Yuan was vomiting blood, they all rushed over.
"My girl, how are you, your dad, hurry and get some hot water~"
"Okay, okay..."
Jhiang Xingzhi hurriedly ran out, while Jhiang Yuan felt somewhat weak.
"Mom, I’m fine, I just saw something frightening and got a bit tired."
"Then you better rest for a while."
For some reason, she was really exhausted, feeling as if all her energy had been drained.
After drinking some hot water, her eyelids grew heavy, which had not happened before. She wondered if it was because she had brought back too many people.
Jhiang Yuan didn’t think too much and quickly lay down.
...
When she woke up again, it felt as though a long time had passed. Song Yi was waiting by her side, and Qin Yue was there too.
"Awake?"
"Mhm..."
Upon hearing talking, her mother rushed over. Jhiang Yuan realized she was still in the same room, but now she had a blanket over her and a pillow under her head.
She had been well cared for, after all, her parents were there.
"My girl, how are you feeling, still uncomfortable, are you hungry?"
"No, Mom, I feel much better. What time is it now, how long have I slept?"
"About three hours, I think!"
Song Yi said lightly. He had been worried to death, afraid that she wouldn’t wake up.
"That long, huh? What about Zhang Kaiyang and the others, have they woken up?"
"No, don’t worry, they’re still asleep."
Qin Yue hurried over, took her hand to comfort her, and handed her a cup of hot water.
"How could that be, after such a long time? Song Yi, didn’t you go too hard on them?"
