Transmigrated into a seven-year-old child, my fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens.
Chapter 411 Zhao Lian Averts Danger
"Dad, what should we do?"
Ling Yun's voice trembled, her face was deathly pale, and her knuckles turned white as she gripped Jordan's hand tightly. There was an abyss beside the road, and if the horses were startled and ran forward, there would be a carriage in front of them. If the two carriages collided, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Jordan roared, "Tengfu, see if there's any way to stop the horse?"
"Young Master, no! This horse has gone mad!" The horse was like a madman, incredibly strong, and he couldn't hold it back at all.
Seeing her son crying loudly, Ling Yun hugged him tightly, pressed her cheek against his face, and kept comforting him: "Zhen'er, be good, we'll be alright."
Qiao Feng's carriage was behind Jordan's, and it looked like it was about to crash into the Liu family's carriage. He couldn't care less about anything else in the face of the situation.
At this critical moment, Qiao Feng lifted the curtain and was about to rush out when a figure was faster than him.
A figure flashed before her eyes, and Zhao Lian leaped into the air, riding the carriage forward.
They quickly reached Tengfu's side, and Zhao Lian kicked the horse's neck with her foot, then grabbed the reins with one hand.
The frightened horse was like a madman, incredibly strong. Zhao Lian steadied herself and gripped the reins tightly with both hands.
"Hiss~" The horse reared up and neighed, its front hooves raised, and the carriage tilted at a 45-degree angle. Jordan and Ling Yun, who were sitting inside, were afraid of being thrown out, so they held on tightly to the carriage with both hands.
The horse neighed for a while, then finally quieted down and knelt down on its hind legs.
Qiao Feng then realized that it was Zhao Lian. Seeing that the carriage had come to a steady stop, he finally felt relieved.
Only when the carriage stopped did Tengfu realize he had been given a second chance at life. It had been too dangerous; if it weren't for Zhaolian, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
As soon as she felt the carriage finally stop, Ling Yun burst into tears.
"Waaaaah~ Daddy, are we alright now?"
"It's alright~ It's alright~" Jordan hugged Lingyun and patted her back.
"Miss Zhaolian, we owe you so much!" Teng Fu said, wiping the sweat from his forehead, still shaken.
Everyone had witnessed what happened and came downstairs. Li Chunhua put her hands together and said, "Thank God, may the Bodhisattva protect us!"
It wasn't that she was particularly worried about their safety, but rather that she had to put on an act.
Qiao Tai walked over with a grateful expression, trembling as he tried to kneel down, but Zhao Lian stopped him, saying, "Master Qiao, you mustn't do that."
Qiao Tai was moved to tears: "Zhao Lian, you saved the lives of my son and his family of three. Thank you so much! If it weren't for you, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
At this moment, Jordan and Ling Yun got off the carriage. Only when they stood on the ground did they realize that their lives had truly been regained.
“爹~娘~”
A soft, sweet voice rang out, and Qiao Xin rushed over and hugged Jordan and Ling Yun.
Although she was young, she could tell just now that her parents had been in danger.
"Jordan, eldest son's wife, you two come over here quickly."
Jordan and Ling Yun quickly brought their son over, with Qiao Xin following closely behind.
"Father~"
Qiao Tai's face was solemn: "You two, kneel down!"
The couple quickly knelt down in front of Qiao Tai, and Qiao Xin followed suit.
Qiao Tai stamped his foot and frowned, saying, "You're not kneeling to me, you're kneeling to Zhao Lian. We should thank them for saving our lives."
The couple then realized what had happened and quickly turned around to kneel before Zhaolian.
"Hey~ Don't kneel down to me." Zhao Lian quickly stepped aside, as she was most afraid of people kneeling down to her for no reason.
Jordan said earnestly, "Zhao Lian, you saved the lives of our family of three. In other words, you gave us our lives. If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know."
"Sister Ling, get up quickly!" Zhao Lian reached out to help Ling Yun up.
He Mu and Zhao Feng had fallen behind for some distance, but when they saw the carriage ahead stop, they quickly sped up and walked over, only to find that something had happened.
From everyone's fragmented descriptions, we learned that the carriage had almost plunged off the cliff, but Zhao Lian had managed to stop it.
He Mu was surprised to find that Zhao Lian's skills were so high.
This horse is quite strong, especially since it was startled and running away, and the road is so narrow. Yet Zhao Lian was able to keep the startled horse under control and even stop the carriage. Her strength is truly remarkable.
The Liu family was also quite frightened. If the carriage had charged straight at them, they would have been the first to fall off.
If you were to fall off this cliff, which is tens of meters high, you would truly be smashed to pieces!
Yan Guihua knelt on the ground, clasped her hands together, and murmured, "Amitabha, thank you God for your protection!"
Liu Jinzhu immediately found it amusing: "Mother, what does this have to do with God? We owe it all to Zhaolian. If it weren't for Zhaolian, our whole family would be finished!"
Yan Guihua said with a stern face: "You little rascal, you can't speak ill of God. It must be God's blessing that Zhaolian was able to hold the carriage. Otherwise, with Zhaolian's small body, how could she have such strength?"
Following Yan Guihua's lead, Zhao Lian said mischievously, "Grandmother is right. It's all thanks to God's blessing. Maybe my mother also deserves credit. She's also protecting us."
"Yes, definitely!" Yan Guihua exclaimed excitedly.
After being startled, everyone stopped immediately. With the sun so bright, they couldn't continue on their way.
Not only could the person not stand it, but the horse couldn't either. The person needed to rest, and so did the horse.
They found a relatively open spot, stopped the carriage, unloaded the carriage, and led the horses to the shade of a tree to tie them up.
A gust of wind blew by, rustling the leaves, but in this sweltering heat, the wind carried a wave of heat, making everyone sweat profusely and feel their throats parched, wanting nothing more than a thirst.
The water is getting less and less. Zhao Feng and the others had already finished the water they brought. Zhao Di gave them two more jugs of water, so they can only drink a little less now.
Everyone took out their dry rations and ate them slowly. The pancakes were fried until dry, and after eating them, one felt thirsty and could only moisten their throats.
The Liu family still had about ten jugs of water. They had brought all the water with them when they left, which they had saved little by little beforehand.
The Qiao family brought more than 20 jugs of water with them when they left, and they still have about ten jugs left, which should last them a few more days.
"Dad, I'm so thirsty." Qiao Xin ate the pancake and smacked her lips. Jordan quickly took out the water gourd, opened the lid, and gave her a drink.
Seeing Qiao Xin gulp down several large mouthfuls of water, Ling Yun quickly took it from her, saying, "Xin'er, we need to drink less."
"Mother, but I'm still thirsty." Qiao Xin said, swallowing hard.
"Xin'er, be good. There's not much water left. If you drink it all, there won't be a single drop left." Ling Yun said as she plugged the cork back in.
She was also very thirsty, her lips were chapped, but she dared not drink any more water.
