Who understands? He traveled through time with a high-spec spatial ability.

Fa Cai took a few more small steps closer, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his small eyes, "Are you afraid of pain?"

Qiao Jingjing glanced at it. "Nonsense, who isn't afraid of pain? Huh! What are you doing?"

The bird's claw lightly scratched Qiao Jingjing's palm with just the right amount of force, drawing a few small beads of blood from the wound. The bird immediately covered the wound with its claw. The next second, a red light flashed by extremely quickly, and Qiao Jingjing's mind was in complete chaos, with countless fragments from her own perspective flashing through her mind.

It tilted its head and looked at Qiao Jingjing, its eyes filled with trust and expectation: "Now you are my new master. A real master!" It flapped its wings happily, "After the contract is formed, my abilities will be your abilities, and everything about you will still belong to you. From now on, no matter how far apart we are, we can contact each other through space in our consciousness. You can also summon me instantly through space."

After saying this, it flapped its wings and flew up again, circling Qiao Jingjing once before landing on her shoulder. It nuzzled Qiao Jingjing's cheek with its head, as if to show affection.

Qiao Jingjing gently stroked its feathers, feeling its warmth. This little creature seemed to really like her and was quite dependent on her. This made her start to think about the meaning of this contract and how to use it to help herself.

Suddenly, it raised its head, looked at Qiao Jingjing, and said, "This is my gift. I have the ability to foresee danger. However, because I don't have a true physical body now, this parrot host body has not been able to revert to its previous state, so I only have three chances to foresee danger each day."

Hearing this, Qiao Jingjing was startled. Foreseeing danger? This was an extremely useful ability, allowing her to prepare in advance and avoid getting into danger. However, she also realized the limitations of this ability; if used improperly, it could cause her trouble. At the very least, she shouldn't rely on it excessively, lest she lower her guard.

Qiao Jingjing decided to test this ability to see if it was truly effective. So, she concentrated, trying to sense any danger in her surroundings. However, nothing happened.

Qiao Jingjing looked at it with some confusion and asked, "What's going on? Why can't I sense any danger?"

It blinked and explained, "Master, it takes time and certain conditions to foresee danger. You can only sense its presence when it's about to strike. You can't detect it under normal circumstances."

She nodded, indicating her understanding. It seemed this ability wasn't always available, but rather activated under specific circumstances. Therefore, she needed to remain calm and use this ability promptly when faced with danger.

Although many problems still need to be solved, Qiao Jingjing has already developed a strong interest in this ability. Next, she will carefully study how to better utilize this ability to protect herself and those around her.

"You just said that your ability is my ability, so can I fly?" Qiao Jingjing wondered for some reason.

"No, because flying is an instinct that all parrots possess, not something unique to me."

“Well, I thought it could fly…” Qiao Jingjing shrugged. “This gift is fantastic, I love it.”

The next day, Qiao Jingjing planned to go to the county to check on the progress of the oil press and also to visit the Xinchang Grain Store. She mounted her horse, wrapped her cloak tightly around herself, and underneath, wore a military overcoat, so she wasn't cold at all. Along the way, she pondered how to better utilize her wealth-making abilities and how to deal with potential dangers.

Upon arriving in the county town, Qiao Jingjing first went to Li the carpenter's house. The oil press was basically finished and only needed some minor adjustments before it could be put into use. She happily chatted with Lin Zhijie and Master Li, confirming that she could test its effectiveness in a day at most.

Satisfied, Qiao Jingjing left the carpenter's house and went to the Xinchang Grain Store. She discussed purchasing matters with the owner. This year was not a year of disaster, and people with some spare money wanted to buy some grain to store.

Just then, Fa Cai suddenly became restless in the space, flapping its wings incessantly. Qiao Jingjing's heart tightened; was some danger about to befall her? She immediately focused her mind, trying to sense the presence of danger. After only a few breaths, she felt a jolt of fear, and the hairs on her body stood on end, but she couldn't pinpoint the specific danger.

She arranged with the shopkeeper to deliver the grain the next day, and then made an excuse to leave the grain store.

They realized they were being watched as soon as they left the grain store.

Qiao Jingjing pretended to be nonchalant and walked slowly. While keeping an eye on her surroundings, she was thinking about how to deal with the situation.

Suddenly, she saw a small alley ahead and an idea struck her. She quickened her pace and entered the alley, then swiftly turned and hid around the corner.

The stalker was clearly caught off guard by her move. After a moment of stunned silence, he followed her into the alley.

Taking advantage of the moment when the other person was off guard, Qiao Jingjing kicked him hard to the ground. Then, she quickly ran forward, pressed her knee against the other person's chest, and grabbed the other person's wrist with one hand.

"Speak! Who are you? Why are you following me?" Qiao Jingjing hissed.

The stalker struggled a few times, but Qiao Jingjing was very strong and he could not break free.

"I...I was just passing by..." the stalker stammered.

Qiao Jingjing clearly didn't believe him and was about to press him further when Fa Cai's voice rang in her mind: "Master, there are others behind you."

Qiao Jingjing was startled and quickly released her pursuer, turning around to look. Sure enough, another figure walked out from the other end of the alley.

The other party was still holding a stick. Ha, they really think highly of her. Two grown men were taking on her alone. If it weren't for drinking well water regularly to improve her physique and having her life protected by the space, any woman would have met with unimaginable consequences.

She feigned fear and asked, "Who are you? Why are you following me? We seem to have no grudge against each other."

The man who had fallen got up, spat, and said to the other man, "Don't be fooled by her, this woman is very strong."

He then turned his head and glared fiercely at Qiao Jingjing, "You bitch, you slut! You dare kick me, I'll make you pay!"

"Let's attack together!"

Qiao Jingjing looked helpless. "Alright, since that's the case, I won't be polite." Before the other party could react, she took out a compound bow from her space and shot an arrow at each of them, all of which hit their calves.

The two were terrified by the series of actions. The sudden appearance of weapons and the ability to fire arrows in rapid succession filled them with fear, which was beyond normal explanation. They kept begging for mercy.

They also revealed that they were hired by Young Master Lü, the owner of the company.

After obtaining the address that Young Master Lü and they had agreed upon, Qiao Jingjing fired an arrow at each of them, killing them instantly after being struck in the heart. She then stored the bodies in her spatial storage.

Having witnessed her secret, there's no reason for them to let it go. As for the two corpses...

Of course, it should be returned to whoever owns it.
