She's skilled in medicine, martial arts, and even understands animal language—the abandoned dau

That day, Shen Man was working in the fields with her mother, Lanxiang, as usual. Suddenly, she saw a group of ants crawling out of their hole. They were carrying and moving things, busy relocating their nest.

"Hurry, hurry! The heavy rain is coming soon. We must move everything up the mountain before dark!" A leader-like ant stood beside the group, urging them on.

"Little ants, why did you move up the mountain?" Shen Man asked curiously, catching the ant leader in her hand.

"Ouch, let me go, you wretched human! Huh, how did you know we were going to move to the mountain?" the ant leader asked, puzzled.

"Because I can hear you! Tell me quickly, why did you move up the mountain?" Shen Man ignored its struggles and continued to ask.

"Our clan elders say it's going to rain heavily here soon, and it'll probably rain for days and nights. If I stay here any longer, I'll drown! Let me down..."

Shen Man put it back in the group, looked up at the sky, and found that there were no clouds, but it was terribly hot and humid.

As a time traveler, she naturally knew that ants moving house meant rain was coming. It was harvest time, and if the crops weren't harvested in time, everyone would go hungry in winter.

In this era, taxes were extremely heavy. Most of the crops produced in the fields had to be used to pay taxes, and the remaining small portion was the food ration for a villager's family for a year.

The five catties of millet that the village head gave Lanxiang each month may not sound like much, but it was the limit they could afford.

Thinking of this, she immediately said to Lanxiang, "Mother, Mother, hurry home and tell Grandpa the village head that it's going to rain heavily, so everyone can hurry up and harvest the grain from the fields!"

Upon hearing this, Lanxiang looked up at the sky and found that there were no dark clouds. However, knowing that her daughter had some special abilities, she asked her, "Man'er, how did you know it would rain?"

"Mom, the ants told me! Look, they're all busy moving house!" Shen Man pointed to the endless stream of ants on the ridge and showed it to Lanxiang.

"Oh, it really is... Come on, let's go home and find the village head!" Lanxiang said, stopping her work, picking up Shen Man and hurrying towards the village.

When the mother and daughter arrived at the village head's house, the village head had gone out to work with his sons; only his wife was home. Upon seeing Lanxiang and her daughter, the village head's wife warmly invited them to sit down and inquired about their purpose.

Lanxiang carefully explained the situation to her. The village head's wife was very surprised after hearing it and said she would pass it on to the village head as soon as possible.

At noon that day, the sun was shining brightly and the sky was cloudless, showing no sign of rain whatsoever.

But the village head believed Shen Man's words without reason. He hurriedly ran around the village, spreading this shocking news from house to house.

Upon hearing this, the villagers stopped what they were doing, looked up at the clear blue sky, and their faces showed confusion and bewilderment.

They were skeptical of this sudden news, wondering to themselves, "The weather is so fine, how could a downpour be coming?"

Despite their doubts, the villagers, for some reason, put down their work and rushed to the fields to harvest the ripe crops, as if an invisible force was driving them, making them dare not slack off in the slightest.

All afternoon, everyone worked together diligently, creating a bustling scene in the fields. Before they knew it, most of the grain in the fields had been harvested.

As the sun gradually set and night quietly fell, the legendary downpour never materialized.

At this point, the villagers began to feel dissatisfied and questioning. They whispered among themselves, accusing Shen Man of talking nonsense and misleading everyone into working in vain.

Some people even came to Lanxiang's doorstep and verbally abused her and her daughter.

Standing in the courtyard, Lanxiang felt embarrassed and awkward upon hearing the whispers. But she knew her daughter was always honest and trustworthy, and would never fabricate lies to deceive others without reason.

Just as people were discussing it, the once calm sky suddenly changed color.

Rolling dark clouds, like surging ocean waves, swept in from the horizon, instantly obscuring the entire sky.

Immediately afterwards, dazzling streaks of lightning ripped through the sky, accompanied by deafening thunder that echoed through the heavens. Large raindrops then poured down, scattering like pearls from a broken string onto the earth.

Faced with this sudden turn of events, the villagers were immediately thrown into a panic and chaos.

"Oh dear, it really is raining! My crops in the field... Hey, husband, hurry up and harvest the crops!"

"Oh no, some of mine were also not collected!"

Without a second thought, the villagers hurriedly turned and ran towards their fields, trying to harvest as much of the remaining crops as possible before the rain flooded them.

In an instant, the fields were filled with figures, shouts rose and fell, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

The torrential rain, like a celestial river bursting its banks, raged for three days and three nights without showing any sign of stopping. The relentless downpour seemed intent on submerging the entire world.

The surrounding villages, which were once peaceful and tranquil, were now submerged in a vast expanse of water. Crops in the fields struggled desperately in the floodwaters, but ultimately could not withstand the powerful force and collapsed to the ground, vanishing without a trace.

The farmers watched as the fruits of their year's hard work were destroyed in an instant, their hearts filled with endless grief and despair.

However, in this desolate scene, Xiaoyao Village was an exception.

All the crops here have been harvested, and all of this is thanks to a three-year-old girl in the village—Shen Man.

Looking at the crops in the neighboring villages soaked in rainwater, the villagers' gratitude towards Shen Man was beyond words.

This girl, who was once seen as an outsider and subjected to discrimination, has now become the savior of the entire village.

The villagers began to accept and acknowledge her special ability, realizing that she was not a monster, but rather possessed a unique talent that could help them avoid disasters.

Gradually, more and more people changed their views on Shen Man and began to accept and respect her.

As a result of this incident, Shen Man and her daughter Lan Xiang were able to overcome the shadows of the past and integrate into this warm family.

However, good times often pass in the blink of an eye.

Who could have predicted that this sudden and torrential rain would bring such a heavy blow to people! It ruthlessly destroyed crops in countless fields, plunging farmers who were already struggling to make a living into dire straits.

The villagers of Xiaoyao Village, who thought they had escaped a calamity, were met with a bolt from the blue half a month later.

One day, several officials suddenly arrived in the village. They took out a notice and posted it in the most conspicuous place at the entrance of the village.

The notice was infuriating and frustrating. The government had inexplicably doubled the village's taxes for the year!

Upon hearing this devastating news, the village head was so angry that he trembled all over. Without hesitation, he stood up and argued with those despicable officials.

However, despite the village head's reasoned arguments and earnest pleas, the cold-hearted officials remained unmoved.

They not only ignored the village head's demands, but also beat the kind and honest old man in a rude and unreasonable manner.

The poor village head was beaten black and blue, barely clinging to life, and nearly lost his life.

Faced with such unjust treatment and brutal acts, the villagers of Xiaoyao Village felt both heartbroken and indignant, yet also deeply helpless.

Shen Man stood at her doorstep, watching the village head being beaten to the ground by those burly officials, her heart filled with a surging, unsettling rage.

Her eyes widened, burning with rage. Her hands clenched into fists involuntarily, her nails digging deep into her palms, as if only in this way could she vent her endless resentment.

She had only read the phrase "oppressive government is more ferocious than a tiger" in books before, and couldn't imagine what it would be like. She never imagined that today she would witness such a scene with her own eyes.

These words were like an incredibly sharp sword, piercing straight into Shen Man's heart. This corrupt and dark world was simply a living hell!

"This damned world, I must rebel against it!"
