My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

Lu Yinheng couldn't help but wonder what the world she had lived in before was like.

Was she also a female general?

In some respects, she was particularly knowledgeable about military affairs, but he felt her achievements went beyond that.

It's clear that she's very capable in areas other than military matters.

He couldn't imagine what kind of world it was, how it could have produced a woman like her who possessed both intelligence and martial prowess.

Moreover, she possesses a confidence that even royal daughters lack.

Thinking of the strength and confidence she displayed when she killed the witch, a proud smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.

She was the most outstanding woman he had ever met in his two lifetimes.

With these thoughts in mind, the group quickly arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Suddenly, a soldier said, "Sir, there's a person lying here."

Upon hearing the soldier's words, Ji Yunshuang walked over and saw a man in black.

"Doesn't this look a bit like the man in black we rescued before?" a soldier said, looking at the unconscious man in black.

Lu Yinheng squatted down and rolled up the man's sleeves to examine them. The black clothes worn by the man on the outside were made of the most ordinary cotton cloth, but the fabric inside was of high quality.

He then reached for his waist, trying to see if there were any tokens or similar items on his person, but unfortunately, the other party was too cautious, and he didn't find anything like that.

Unable to find the token, he then unzipped the man's pants and examined him thoroughly before saying, "He seems to be a secret guard kept by a powerful family."

"Why are the secret guards from the aristocratic families here?" Xu Xi looked at the unconscious man and asked, "Did they follow you, sir?"

Hearing that they might have come to follow Ji Yunshuang, many soldiers were filled with anger. Their superiors had risked their lives to eradicate the plague, and yet some people were still plotting against them.

Some soldiers drew their knives, ready to kill people.

Ji Yunshuang raised her hand to stop her, saying, "No rush."

She also wanted to see who had sent someone to follow him.

Perhaps because he is relatively close to the mountain, this person is in a very bad condition and should be relatively easy to control with telekinesis.

With that in mind, she immediately injected the drug into the other person.

After the injection, the man in black quickly showed signs of a stress reaction. Ji Yunshuang had him tied up and then took him with her.

After the pregnant women left, the village at the foot of the mountain became eerily quiet.

Looking at the clear stream, some soldiers unconsciously swallowed.

Fearing infection, they hadn't opened their protective suits' masks, and their throats were already parched and burning.

However, the soldiers felt a chill run down their spines when they thought of the group of heavily pregnant women washing clothes by the river yesterday.

Those women weren't human; their bodies were full of worms. Could the water they touched be drunk? Could it be teeming with worms?

One of the soldiers asked in despair, "Sir, where can we rest? Is there anywhere we can find a place to rest?"

Hearing the soldier's words, Ji Yunshuang thought of the post-apocalyptic world where water was polluted and could no longer be drunk, many plants and animals mutated and could no longer be eaten, and even the air was filled with unknown infectious and harmful substances, making it impossible to breathe freely.

She absolutely would not allow the world to become like that.

She took a deep breath, observed her surroundings, and then said in an extremely calm and confident tone, "I see a nicely built house ahead. Let's go take a look and rest there."

The soldiers were initially somewhat desperate, but seeing Ji Yunshuang's confident demeanor, as if everything was under her control, they were instantly infected by her emotions.

Yup!

What are they afraid of?

With adults around, there's bound to be a way!

Adults are so capable! They can definitely solve any problem!

The soldiers rallied and headed toward the red brick house that Ji Yunshuang had pointed out.

"Is anyone here?" The soldier at the front gripped his knife warily as he walked in, cautiously surveying the courtyard.

The courtyard was quiet, without a sound, as if no one was there.

Once inside the house, everyone noticed that there was no sound at all.

Everyone in the room was lying on the floor, unconscious.

Clearly, these people have been infected for quite some time and need immediate medical attention.

Ji Yunshuang hurriedly stepped forward and injected the medicine into everyone in the room.

After the drug was injected, the people in the room immediately reacted violently.

The soldiers are now considered worldly-wise.

Seeing this reaction from the villagers, they didn't panic. They found ropes and other things to tie them up.

Whether they can pull through or not depends on themselves.

Ji Yunshuang ignored them.

She first checked the yard thoroughly, going back and forth.

This family appears to be wealthy; they not only built a brick house, but also dug a well in the yard.

Ji Yunshuang threw the bucket down, drew a bucket of water from the well, looked at it, and then said to the soldiers, "Find firewood, boil the water, and then wash and drink it."

The soldiers present nodded repeatedly.

Finally, they could wash up and drink water; their throats were practically parched.

While thinking about drinking water, some soldiers naturally thought about eating.

Given the current special circumstances, we can borrow some grain from the villagers for now and return it later.

A soldier shared his thoughts with Ji Yunshuang, and Ji Yunshuang naturally agreed.

While searching for food in the house, they discovered a strange phenomenon.

Judging from this family's house, they must be quite wealthy, and they must keep quite a few poultry.

But the pigsty and chicken coop of this family were empty, with nothing in them.

Just as Ji Yunshuang was wondering if the poultry were also infected, a soldier came to report that a pile of chicken feathers had been found in a corner of the yard.

There was something wrong with the chicken feathers, so I asked Ji Yunshuang to take a look.

When Ji Yunshuang saw the pile of chicken feathers, her brows furrowed.

These chicken feathers, still attached to the skin, make it look almost as if someone has removed the flesh and internal organs, leaving only the outer shell.

Everyone imagined the worms in those pregnant women's bodies all gone, leaving only a skin.

Could it be that these chickens are the same as those women?

The thought of this possibility sent chills down everyone's spines once again.

Ji Yunshuang wasn't quite sure what was going on either. She said, "You all stay here and rest. If you're worried, you don't have to remove the protective shield yet. I'll go check other houses in the village first to see if there are any other clues."

Lu Yinheng immediately said, "I'll go with you."

The soldiers also expressed their desire to go with her.

Ji Yunshuang thought for a moment, then selected some soldiers and divided them into three teams. She instructed them to carry medicine and set off in three different directions from their respective locations to learn about the situation in the village.

After making the arrangements, she set off in one of the directions.

She didn't bring Lu Yinheng with her, but instead took two soldiers with her.

Lu Yinheng was assigned to another squad and worked with the soldiers.
