Quick travel: The poor little thing in the period novel strikes back

Gu Zhen and Shi Yan have never cared much about what happened in the village or what the villagers think of them.

They usually spend most of their time in town, so just don't forget to send gifts to the Shi family during festivals.

But they never expected that something big would happen to the Shi family just one month after they had lived in the city.

I heard from the village that the daughter-in-law of the Gu family had gone crazy and burned down the Shi family's house in the middle of the night.

None of the four members of the Shi family, including Gu Xiang, were alive.

I heard from the neighbors who went to put out the fire that Gu Xiang was still alive when they went to put out the fire, and it was she who started the fire from outside.

When they arrived, Gu Xiang was like a mad woman, and she kept shouting, "Burn you to death, burn you to death."

Even when the fire burned his body, he didn't react at all.

When Shi Yan heard the news, she couldn't describe the feeling in her heart.

Every once in a while, she would secretly transfer some of her special powers to Gu Xiang to ensure that she would not exhaust herself and die from exhaustion as described in the book.

But now, although Gu Xiang has lived a few years longer than in the book, she has become mentally unstable and has even wiped out all the members of the Shi family.

When Shi Yan heard the news, she couldn't say she was sad about the death of the Shi family, but she wasn't in a good mood either. She even felt a blockage in her heart and couldn't breathe.

Gu Zhen was listening to the words of the messenger from the village, then glanced at his wife beside him and immediately panicked.

He quickly hugged the person in his arms and comforted him for a long time. The person who came to report the news was invited by Gu Song, who was on holiday to help in the store, to sit down in the store. Gu Song also considerately served the person some sweet soup and meat buns.

"Wife, are you okay? Take your time. I'll put out the fire, put away the things, and we'll go home."

Gu Zhen was afraid that something might happen to his young wife, so while packing up, he did not forget to glance in Shi Yan's direction.

Only after he was sure that his wife's complexion had improved would he turn around and continue working.

After the shop was closed, the four members of the Gu family, plus a runner, rented an oxcart from the neighboring village that was used to transport people in the town, and headed for the village.

The fire started in the middle of the night. It was already dawn when Gu Xiang died. Adding the time it took for Gu Zhen to clean up, it was almost noon when they returned to the village.

Looking at the burnt-out mud house and the corpses whose faces were covered by the villagers but still looked horrible.

If she hadn't been able to smell the meaty aroma when she got close to the corpse, Shi Yan would have felt like she had returned to the end of the world and seen zombies.

If Shi Yan had not quickly controlled her emotions and immediately lowered her head, the people not far from her would definitely have seen the light in her eyes.

It’s not that Shi Yan doesn’t enjoy her current comfortable life, but that she always remembers why she is here.

There were still people waiting for her there, and she had not yet personally taken revenge on the people who had harmed her.

Just when Shi Yan's mind was filled with memories of the end of the world.

A crisp "ding" sound was heard, followed by the long-lost system sound.

"System overload! System overload! The system is now in automatic garbage cleaning mode. Please choose an unmanned area and wait for the system to finish cleaning."

It was clearly still the system's emotionless voice, but when Shi Yan heard the end, she always felt that there was pity in the system's words.

Just when Shi Yan was wondering what this automatic garbage cleaning mode was.

It was as if someone reached into her head and stirred it up. Shi Yan felt a pain from the inside out, and she instantly lost control of her body and was about to pounce on the corpse on the ground.

Shi Yan shouted "no" in her heart, but this was not something she could control at the moment. In the end, it was Gu Zhen beside her who was quick to catch the person.

Shi Yan looked up at Gu Zhen, but she could only see Gu Zhen's mouth opening and closing, but could not hear any sound.

Then the face of the person in front of him slowly changed, turning into Huo Ming's face which seemed a little stern, but would become gentle whenever he looked at him.

In her ears, she heard Huo Ming's voice calling her to get up and have breakfast, saying that he had bought her favorite spicy rice rolls.

Then the figure in front of him became taller and turned into Sun Hao, who was wearing a suit but sitting very casually.

Sun Hao was holding his mobile phone and whispering to the person opposite him, asking him to bring all the extra building materials to his house after completing the project. He wanted to build a third floor to create a play area for the children.

Then the person in front of her turned into Zhou Yu, who was wearing a white coat. Zhou Yu seemed to say something to her. Shi Yan struggled for a long time before she realized that Zhou Yu was saying that he would definitely find her.

At this moment, Shi Yan felt the pain gradually getting worse, as if someone was trying to dig her brain out.

However, the memories that were accidentally preserved from the previous worlds began to gradually dissipate. Shi Yan wanted to reach out and grab something, but these memories were invisible. No matter what Shi Yan did, they still left Shi Yan's mind bit by bit, until Shi Yan completely lost consciousness.
