In the instant of the explosion, she originally had the opportunity to take refuge in the space. However, unexpectedly, the space upgraded at that critical moment, and she was excluded from entering. In that moment, she was blown to pieces by the explosion...
Thinking of this, Mo Yan couldn't help but beat her head.
If she hadn't rushed into the kindergarten at that time, maybe she would be fine now, planning to celebrate her twenty-fifth birthday with her family. But did she regret it? No, she didn't regret it. If she had chosen to leave at that time, those children would almost certainly have had no chance of survival. Even if she had safely passed the age of twenty-five, she would have lived in self-blame for decades to come!
However, just the thought of her beloved family suffering because of her death was like a knife in her heart. In her previous life, she had a clear conscience towards others, but she still owed her family's love and sacrifice countless times over!
Tears silently streamed down her face, disappearing into the ground. The faces and smiles of her loved ones played repeatedly in Mo Yan's mind like a silent movie. Although her family knew she might not live past twenty-five and were mentally prepared, at the moment of facing death in her past life, despair and unwillingness still surged in her heart. She had wanted to accompany her loved ones and live happily for a lifetime, but even such a simple wish couldn't be fulfilled!
After crying for a while, Mo Yan felt somewhat relieved. She touched the imprint on her palm and silently vowed in her heart: Grandpa, grandma, mom, dad, and brothers, Yan Yan will live well, we will all live well!
Accepting reality, Mo Yan rallied again. Worried that the original family might be anxious, she quickly tidied up the seeds under the jade platform. Besides ordinary vegetable seeds like cabbage and tomatoes, she also found corn, wheat, and other grain seeds. This made her extremely grateful. If she hadn't casually put them there before, she would probably have nothing now, and she might have starved to death on the road.
After categorizing all the seeds and scattering them on the ground, almost an acre of land was planted. In the not yet evolved space, the time flow rate was roughly ten to one compared to the outside. Vegetables matured quickly, some could be harvested in about ten days, so she only needed to wait outside for two days to have fresh vegetables to eat. Rice and corn matured more slowly, taking more than three months, but she could wait outside for just over ten days, which she could afford.
Mo Yan didn't dare to stay for too long. After taking a look at the space, she thought, "Go out," and she appeared outside.
...
"I can give you the rabbit meat, but even if I die, I won't give you the children!"
As soon as Mo Yan crossed the small hill, she heard Mo Qingze's loud shout. Looking closely, she saw seven or eight ragged, fierce-looking young men surrounding the Mo family of three. Mo Xin was fine, but the younger Mo Zhen was already crying in fear.
Those few people were obviously also refugees fleeing hunger, but why were they surrounding the Mo family, who were also fleeing? What did they want to do?
Among the crowd, a seemingly leading young man stared fixedly at Mo Xin and Mo Zhen, saying maliciously, "We want the rabbit meat, and we won't let those two brats go either! Be smart and hand them over. If the boss is in a good mood, maybe he'll let you taste your brat's flavor. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite!"
What? They want to snatch children, just to eat them?
Hearing this, Mo Yan was furious. She had heard of cannibalism during famine years in her past life, but witnessing it with her own eyes now, she realized how cruel reality could be!
She suppressed her anger and quickly thought about countermeasures. These people were obviously desperate and serious about their words. However, there were eight of them, and if they fought head-on, they wouldn't be opponents. She could put the Mo family into the space, but the space was her biggest secret, and she didn't want to expose it unless absolutely necessary...
At this moment, Mo Yan didn't even realize that she had already considered herself a part of the Mo family.
Just as she was struggling with her dilemma, the sound of galloping horse hooves came from behind. Subconsciously turning her head, with her excellent eyesight, she saw a figure on horseback coming towards them at the forefront of the cavalry...
