Chapter 47: I'm Here to Save You

on't run, will they just wait to be killed Now I don't even know if my son and daughter-in-law are alive or dead."You guys are just making up rumors here, rabbits get desperate and bite people too, b..."Little sprite, start stocking up! Show me the map of this mine."

Ginger became conscious and started communicating with the system. At the same time, she took out a headlamp from the space and put it on her head, and also prepared a candle.

"Yes, master."

The pixie's voice sounded faintly excited, and Ginger quickly received the map it offered.

And this fellow is really a money grubber, having marked every place where there's gold and silver. Jiang Wan expressed great satisfaction.

There weren't many people around, so she directly used her powers to quickly get to the first hole that had been carved out. It was probably a temporary storage room, with a heavy wooden door blocking it, and a lock hanging on top.

Ginger nimbly picked the lock with practiced ease, her titanium eyes nearly blinding from the sudden burst of light.

In the small cave, there was a heap of gold of various sizes. It was dazzling yellow and made one's heart leap with joy.

Ginger estimated that there were hundreds of kilograms of gold, no wonder Xu was so confident. It seems that the people from Xujia Village haven't had time to divide the spoils yet.

She waved her hand, taking everything without mercy. She also ransacked a small storeroom.

Apart from that, the rest are yet to be mined. Jiang Wan feels a bit regretful about this.

"Little Sprite, are those only for the Dog Emperor"

"If the master wants, the system can help extract it."

The little sprite greedily sensed the half mountain of gold, it was just a little bit, just a little bit of space away from upgrading!

Don't be wasteful. Ginger steeled herself and said, "If we extract the gold from the gold mine, wouldn't the mountain collapse"

"Sure."

The little fairy answered with certainty, Ginger pondered for a moment and said: "Then I'll take these miners out first."

"You chose a deserted place to extract from, just leaving behind one tenth of the dregs."

Without any evidence, Jing Jinzi cannot possibly frame the people of Xujia Village. Jiang Wan certainly wouldn't want to let them get away with it.

"Yes, master."

The little sprite cheerfully agreed, and Ginger followed the map to Knock-Knock Smash-Smash. She estimated that someone was digging for gold inside.

She first put away the flashlight and then lit a candle. Only then did she step forward. The sound of footsteps, the tapping stopped.

A wooden door appeared in Jiang Wan's vision, with only a small hole big enough for bowls and chopsticks inside. It was estimated to be used by the people of Xujiacun to send meals.

She clearly felt countless gazes coming from the small hole, as if they hadn't expected a woman to be delivering food today.

"Hello, I am not from Xujia Village, I've come to save you."

Ginger got straight to the point, leading these people out so that the system could move the gold mine for her.

"Really"

A faint sound came from the small hole. Gingerwan frowned, instinctively feeling that the person inside was not good. The people of Xujia Village only cared about gold and wouldn't care about these people's lives or deaths.

"It's true, the villagers are probably subdued by the officials now. I'll lead you out of here."

"There's no air in this hole, it's too dangerous. You guys wait a moment and don't crowd, let's go out one by one."

Ginger's hands gripped an iron hammer, and with a single swing, she smashed the heavy padlock. Cheers of delight echoed from within.

"It's true, she came to save us."

"Can we... leave now"

">""

Every sound was faint. Ginger opened the door, and the next second she almost jumped out of her skin as her eyes widened in shock.

Because everyone inside was extremely thin, like skeletons wrapped in skin. At a glance, there were roughly twenty or thirty people.

"Go out this way, and there will be officers to meet you outside."

Ginger frowned and stood aside. Those people who had been locked up for too long didn't know where they got the strength, but after receiving the signal, they took off running.

Finally, I can go out!

"Mother, I can leave this damned place!"

"...."

Those people ran frantically, even though they were famished and looked like skeletons. They still had hope for the outside world.

A dozen people ran wildly outward. Ginger's nose tingled, feeling for the first time that she had done a good deed.

The people in Xu Jia Village are truly wicked, luckily they met this little demon.

Jiang Wan didn't consider himself a good person, but he wouldn't do something so despicable for money.

"Miss, thank you."

A barely audible voice reached Ginger's ears, and only then did she notice two gaunt men standing behind her.

The candle wasn't very bright, she could only make out a vague outline. She didn't say much, just;

"Don't thank me yet, just get out of here, it's not safe."

"Okay."

The man nodded slightly, as if someone was supporting him, and they slowly left. Only she remained in this vast space.

Jiang Wan took a candle and walked in, discovering that there was gold they had mined halfway left behind, about dozens of jin. Jiang Wan also didn't hesitate to take it all away.

She wanted to walk further in, but the next second she almost threw up on the spot because she found a pile of white bones.

She hurriedly covered her mouth and nose, the further she went in, the longer the intervals between the skeletons, the two newest corpses still emitting a stench of rot.

Ugh…

Ginger hurried to catch up with those people, almost arriving at the entrance at the same time as them.

"Little sprite, move!"

Jiang Wan hooked her lips into a smile, causing Song Jiu yuan who was not far away to unconsciously feel his heart skip a beat.

Every time she makes a move, it's always like this. Could it be…

Boom boom boom...

A sound of collapsing filled the air, and those who had just escaped death scrambled to flee once more.

It wasn't until they escaped the foot of the mountain that they realized it had collapsed. Thankfully, the main collapse wasn't on their side, but on the other.

But it was terrifying enough, the gaunt people were so frightened their faces turned pale, and they were filled with gratitude for Ginger.

"Ren Da Ge, this is the person who was locked up by the villagers of Xu Jia Cun, and another..."

Ginger Wang glanced at the people from Xu Jia Village, who were tied up with five flowers by Ren Bang and others, and said disgustedly:

Moreover, I also saw many skeletons inside, some had already turned to white bones, while others were just beginning to decay.

Just the mention of this ginger knot made his heart ache, and Xu Wei, who was bound beside him, was also frightened, her face turning as white as snow.

She couldn't imagine the scene inside, she just thought the people of Xujia Village were too crazy.

I understand.

Ren Bang nodded. "Thank you, I've already asked Xiao Deng to find the nearest county magistrate, they'll be here soon to handle this."

"That's fine."

Ginger breathed a sigh of relief, feeling inexplicably guilty. After all, she was the one who had emptied this mountain.

She even heard the little fairies in the space say that the stockpiling task had been completed, and the space was being upgraded...

"My lord."

At this very moment, Song Jiuchi came over with Song Jiuyuan on his back. Song Jiuyuan's voice was very soft, probably only audible to a few of them.

"If the county magistrate inquires, I hope you will remove my wife from among you."

In a single sentence, both Jiang Wan and Ren Bao were not fools, they immediately understood his meaning.

Song Jiubian's charges, Jiang Wan understood them clearly. At this moment, she indeed shouldn't be too prominent, lest the Emperor and the Sixth Prince notice.

So she followed Song Jiubian's lead and said, "What my husband means is what I mean."all matter at all.Jiang Wan laughed helplessly and said, "It's not for eating, I just want to research some things. Just listen to me.""Alright, I'll go talk to the people outside."Pan Hongyan took hi...
