The Valiant Farmgirl’s Blackhearted Husband Wants a Hug
Chapter 213 - 213 Saving Lives213 Saving Lives
Qin Xiaoyao smiled. She knew that her husband was worried about her.
“Don’t worry. I’m a special ability user. These locusts can’t hurt me. ”
“I’ll only be out there for a moment. I’ll be back after I’ve ascertained no one is trapped in our courtyard.” As she spoke, Qin Xiaoyao reached out and patted Song Que’s arm.
Only then did Song Que let her go.
Nonetheless, he went to the closet, took out a blanket, and gave it to Qin Xiaoyao.
Qin Xiaoyao took the blanket and draped it over her body. Then, she opened the door and dashed out.
When she went outside, she realized that the situation outside was worse than she had thought.
The flying locusts were like bullets, shooting haphazardly everywhere.
The courtyard resembled the gray-white battlefield during the apocalypse.
Fortunately, Qin Xiaoyao had the blanket that her husband had given her, which helped her block many of the locusts’ bullet-like assaults.
She didn’t hesitate and quickly dashed to the outer reaches of the courtyard.
As she ran, she shouted, “Has everyone entered the hall? Is there anyone else out here?”
Suddenly, a woman’s voice rang out. “Over here… Help… Ah! Save me…”
Qin Xiaoyao’s expression changed, and she quickly ran toward the source of the voice.
“I’m coming!”
Soon, she realized that it was a middle-aged woman struggling on the ground.
At this point, there were still countless locusts charging at her body. Some were crawling all over her and biting her body. The middle-aged woman was in so much pain that she rolled around on the ground as she swatted at the locusts.
Unfortunately, there were too many locusts. Her actions were utterly futile.
Qin Xiaoyao’s expression changed drastically, and she ran over quickly.
Following that, she pulled the middle-aged woman to her feet and covered the middle-aged woman with the blanket.
She then picked her up and dashed towards the hall.
In the end, along the way, Qin Xiaoyao met an elderly woman who was also facing the same predicament.
The elderly woman’s condition was even worse than the middle-aged woman’s.
Due to her weak physical strength, she almost couldn’t shout out.
Qin Xiaoyao had no choice but to change her route.
After coming to the elderly woman’s side, she picked the woman up with her other hand, tucked her under her arm, and dashed to the hall.
When the three of them arrived at the entrance of the hall, Qin Xiaoyao banged on the door. Someone opened the door and let Qin Xiaoyao and her group in.
“Quick! Remove the locusts from their bodies.”
“If there’s water, wipe and clean the wounds,” Qin Xiaoyao instructed.
“Alright!” someone hurriedly replied.
A few women hurriedly helped the two people who had been rescued clean up their bodies.
The men all praised Qin Xiaoyao for her strength and sense of righteousness.
“Everyone, please don’t praise me. Check and make sure everyone is here.”
As she spoke, Qin Xiaoyao wrapped the blanket over her back and prepared to go out again.
Only then did everyone start to do a head count on the number of people.
Two of the men even offered to go out with Qin Xiaoyao when they saw that she was going out again.
Qin Xiaoyao thought for a moment and gave the blanket to the man who looked stronger.
“Just one of you following me will do! There’s probably no one else outside, so we don’t need so many people to take the risk.”
“After we go out, I’ll take the right, and you take the left.”
“After ensuring there is no one else, return at once. Don’t waste too much time outside,” Qin Xiaoyao issued some quick instructions.
The man took the blanket and wanted to return it to Qin Xiaoyao.
However, Qin Xiaoyao had already opened the door and rushed out.
The man felt very helpless. After a moment of hesitation, he quickly covered himself with the blanket and dashed out.
Qin Xiaoyao entered the courtyard again. Without the blanket, her vision was much better, and her movements were more agile.
Although it was easier for the flying locusts to attack her now, she had her special ability, so the impact was not that big.
As Qin Xiaoyao yelled whether there was anyone else in the courtyard, she headed to the right side of the courtyard to search.
However, after checking one round, she didn’t find anyone.
Qin Xiaoyao felt a little more at ease and prepared to return.
At this moment, she heard a cry for help not far away.
Qin Xiaoyao quickly ran over.
She realized that it was the man who had offered to come out with her to look for people.
At this point, the man was helping a thin and weak teenager.
However, the teenager’s injuries were not light, and his face was covered in blood.
Even though the man had covered the teenager’s back with the blanket, a large number of locusts still pounced on the teenager’s face because of the attraction of blood.
“Mrs. Song, come quickly and help! Xiao Wuzi has already fainted!” the man said anxiously.
If the fellow was awake, the man was confident that he could bring him back.
However, the teenager couldn’t even stand up, and the locusts were flying everywhere. There was no way the man could bring the teenager back!
The man was really full of admiration for Qin Xiaoyao now.
When he saw Mrs. Song carrying two people back, he thought it would be easy.
Only now did he realize that Mrs. Song’s divine strength was not something that ordinary people could compare to.
“I’m coming!” Qin Xiaoyao hurriedly responded.
She dashed over in a few strides and lifted Xiao Wuzi up.
“You should go back too. I’ll come out and search again later.” After saying that, Qin Xiaoyao walked away briskly.
A look of hesitation flashed across the man’s face.
He could feel the locusts smashing into his body, and it was extremely painful.
He crushed to death another two flying locusts that were biting him and quickly gave chase.
Forget it. He could still protect himself, but saving people was indeed a little difficult.
He’d better not cause any more trouble for Mrs. Song.
By the time the man returned to the hall, Qin Xiaoyao had already gone out again.
And she didn’t even protect herself with a blanket.
This was because she realized that she could move much faster without a blanket.
Moreover, those flying locusts did not really cause much harm to her.
After dashing into the courtyard again, Qin Xiaoyao went to the left side of the courtyard and searched around. After making sure that no one was there, she returned to the hall with peace of mind.
When everyone saw that Qin Xiaoyao had returned, they all came forward to show their concern.
“I’m fine,” she said.
“I have checked the courtyard. No one else is left there.”
“Have you all done a head count? Are the people with you all accounted for?” Qin Xiaoyao asked the crowd.
Everyone nodded to indicate everyone was accounted for.
“Everyone’s here! Mrs. Song, it’s all thanks to you!” someone answered.
“That’s right. It’s all thanks to you, Mrs. Song! Otherwise, I’m afraid we would have…”
For a while, everyone gushed an endless stream of gratitude.
Qin Xiaoyao raised her hand, signaling for the crowd to quiet down.
“I’ll go back to my room and get the first aid box. Later, everyone can help apply medicine on the wounds of those who are seriously injured.”
“After this, everyone, please be patient and wait here.”
“When the locusts stop flying around, and the situation is more stable, everyone can go home,” Qin Xiaoyao said.
The first wave of the locust plague was the most terrifying.
After the first batch of locusts had landed and started to gnaw on the trees, the danger would not be so great afterward.
As for whether or not there would be another wave of flying locusts and when the next wave would come, it was hard to say.
However, there was at least a time gap between the first and second waves.
This way, everyone would have time to evacuate.
Everyone in the hall expressed their concurrence.
Qin Xiaoyao then left the hall and returned to her room.
She had just knocked on the door when Song Que opened it.
Then, he pulled Qin Xiaoyao into his arms.
He hugged her so tightly that it made Qin Xiaoyao’s heart feel sweet all over.
