95: The gods are in your hands!

In Jin'nan Mountain, the torrential rain and earthquake caused numerous mudslides, countless trees were washed away, and many small ravines were completely covered.

In a village at the foot of the mountain, a woman was tightly holding a little girl.

Due to the earthquake, their house had largely collapsed, so the woman could only take her child to hide under a piece of asbestos tile to shelter from the rain.

“Mama, Yaya is so scared!” The little girl shivered, terrified by the sudden natural disaster.

The woman held her even tighter, “Yaya, don't be scared, Papa will come back to save us very soon.”

“Really?” The little girl immediately felt a little more at ease.

“Really, Papa will be back very soon.”

Splash!

The heavy rain showed no signs of weakening, and the woman was already starting to feel cold, but their clothes were all buried in the mud.

Rumble!

A bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, and the pitch-black surroundings instantly lit up.

Even though it was only for a short time, the woman saw that there seemed to be two figures walking towards them in the distance.

Late at night, an earthquake, a heavy rain, how could there be two figures walking outside?

The woman rubbed her eyes, wanting to take another look, but the surroundings had already plunged into darkness, and she couldn't see anything.

Just then, a man's laughter suddenly came from behind her.

“Hehehe, are you looking for me?”

The woman's heart rate instantly accelerated; she wanted to scream, but immediately controlled herself.

She still had her daughter in her arms; she couldn't lose her composure.

The woman turned her head, and by the intermittent flashes of lightning, she clearly saw the two people behind her.

One was a teenager of about eighteen or nineteen, followed by a man completely wrapped in a coir raincoat.

These two people were not normal.

This was the woman's first judgment, because she noticed that even though it was pouring rain, the teenager's clothes were dry.

And the tall man behind him, although his face couldn't be seen clearly, always gave off an eerie feeling.

“I didn't.” The woman quickly shook her head, then cautiously asked, “Who are you two?”

The little girl in her arms was also so frightened by the sudden appearance of the two people that she dared not make a sound.

“We are ordinary people, just casually strolling in the mountains.” Song Zhong's white teeth looked like shining blades in the night.

“With such heavy rain and an earthquake in the mountains, it's very dangerous here.”

Of course, the woman knew the young man opposite her was talking nonsense, but the other party didn't seem easy to provoke, so she could only choose a gentle tone to respond.

Suddenly, the little girl in her arms spoke up, “Big brother, you two aren't human, are you?”

“Shut up! Why are you talking nonsense?” The woman turned pale with fright; this Yaya chose not to speak earlier or later, but why now of all times?

If she angered them, the consequences would be unimaginable…

“Sirs, my daughter has a high fever, please don't mind her.”

“Hahaha! Children's words are innocent, don't worry, we are not bad people.”

Song Zhong was amused; he thought about it, the one behind him was indeed no longer human.

“I am like you, I am human.”

The little girl's eyes were clear, “No, you are a very powerful person.”

“Hmm, indeed a little more powerful than ordinary people.”

“Then can you help me find Papa?”

“Don't talk nonsense, the big brothers are very busy.” The woman quickly covered the little girl's mouth.

Song Zhong stood in the rain, when suddenly a tremor emanated from Han Shaoyun.

Han Shaoyun no longer had a Soul; what remained was only instinct.

“How interesting!” Song Zhong suddenly blurted out this sentence, scaring the woman quite a bit.

Then he turned to look at the little girl, “I can help you find someone, but what do you plan to exchange for it?”

There was only terror left in the woman's eyes; she felt her body suddenly lose control, and the hand that was covering the little girl's mouth had somehow moved aside.

“I… I have nothing left at home.” The little girl hesitated, “I, I will worship you as a God.”

“God?” Song Zhong laughed heartily after hearing this, “There are no Gods in this world at all; if there were…”

Song Zhong extended his hand, “Gods are in everyone's hands; it is humans who change this world!”

The little girl was stunned; was this big brother blaspheming God?

“I promise you, I will bring your father back. As for the reward, this time will be an exception.”

After speaking, Song Zhong took an unopened blood collection needle from his bag, and in the woman's terrified gaze, he took a drop of blood from the little girl's index finger.

He threw the blood into the heavy rain; the blood drop quickly dispersed into tiny blood threads in the rain, spreading in all directions at an unimaginable speed.

Song Zhong looked up into the distance, as if he had sensed something, “The rescue team will be here soon, don't run around.”

Immediately after, Song Zhong and Han Shaoyun disappeared from where they stood.

At a collapsed section of the mountainside, a huge rock was pressing on the man's body.

His eyes were already unfocused; severely injured and bleeding, coupled with hypothermia from the heavy rain, his life had almost reached its end.

“Yaya, Huiling…”

The man's lips were already pale, and his voice was indistinct.

Just then, he suddenly felt his body lighten considerably; he had heard old people say before that before a person dies, they feel their body become very light, which means their Soul has left their physical body.

Then, a warm current rapidly filled his Soul; the feeling was like taking a hot bath, or like a sheep's head being watered with Soul juice.

“Am I going to die? I still have a wife and daughter…”

Thinking of this, the man's heart was filled with unwillingness. At this moment, a Mysterious voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

That voice showed him the way…

Instructor Hong, along with Lin Qi Ye, Bai Li Pang Pang, Molly, Shen Qingzhu, and a total of 9 people, quickly rushed to Jin'nan Mountain.

“Ahead is the location of Village One, begin search and rescue immediately!”

Lin Qi Ye and the others immediately began the rescue; although they themselves were not affected by the heavy rain, these conditions could very easily cause secondary collapses.

Soon, Lin Qi Ye and Bai Li Pang Pang found the woman and the little girl hiding under the asbestos tile.

“We are soldiers of Great Xia, we're here to save you!” Lin Qi Ye shouted loudly.

The woman's eyes lit up, but just as she was about to leave, the little girl cried, “Mama, I want to wait for Papa!”

Molly quickly came over and draped her cloak over the two of them, “Be good, we will definitely find your papa!”

“No, the big brother already promised me he would go find Papa, I want to wait.”

“Big brother?” Everyone was stunned; had someone else been here?

Just then, in the heavy rain, a ragged middle-aged man was actually running, “Huiling, Yaya, I'm back…”

“Papa, it's Papa…”

The little girl danced with joy, not at all afraid of getting wet from the heavy rain, “The big brother brought Papa back!”

Lin Qi Ye looked in the direction the man came from, and there was no one else.

Song Zhong's face appeared in the little girl's mind, and she offered her most sincere blessing.

Song Zhong, who was walking in the mountains, suddenly paused. Just now, he seemed to have felt something, but nothing around him had changed.

What he didn't know was that a tiny speck of light, smaller than a Firefly, had abruptly appeared within the System space.
