Chapter 1623: Intense Battle!
Translator: Lonelytree
A storm was coming!
This was no longer a perception but a fact that was about to become reality.
On the other side, Xiao Jingrui’s subordinates had already found a few big umbrellas to block the storm for Xiao Jingrui at any time.
“Your Highness, the sky is getting darker and darker, and the wind is getting stronger and stronger. Why don’t you go back to the house?”
The house that this subordinate was referring to was not the courtyard that Lin Yuelan had entered. It was the courtyard of another farmer’s house.
Xiao Jingrui didn’t answer but asked,” How long is it?” Of course, he was asking how long it had left for Lin Yuelan.
The subordinate looked at the hourglass and replied,” Your Highness, there’s still fifteen minutes!”
“Hehe, there’s only fifteen minutes left!” Listening to his subordinate report, Xiao Jingrui smiled coldly and said,” Then I will welcome Princess Guguo here! “It meant that he wasn’t going to hide in that house anymore. The subordinate immediately understood and replied respectfully,” Yes!”
Then, he ordered the others,” Quick, quickly build a shed!”
Looking at the gloomy weather, it was likely that there would be a rainstorm soon. An umbrella might not be able to cover it at all, so they had to build a shelter.
He ordered his subordinates to escort a young and strong man over to build a shed.
Due to the large number of people and the fact that they had forced the villagers to bring over the wood and straw they had at home, a canopy was quickly built.
Half of the time had passed.
Therefore, it meant that Lin Yuelan would come out in 15 minutes.
Whether Lin Yuelan came out or not would determine the fate of these villagers.
In an instant, everyone no longer cared about the darkness of the sky or the strong wind. They all stared at the entrance of the farm yard as if they could force Lin Yuelan out just like that.
At this moment, Liu Yichen could not help but feel nervous and uneasy.
He poked Jiang Zhennan and whispered,” Jiang Zhennan, it’s almost time. If his sister had not figured out how to use those things, what should we do?”
If Lin Yuelan hadn’t figured out how to use the metal detector, then there was no doubt that Xiao Jingrui would have no patience. According to his previous ruthlessness and threat, he would definitely kill the first ten people who were brought here.
After that, he would force Lin Yuelan to continue her research. If she failed, he would repeat the same actions.
These villagers would be killed, and then he would capture more villagers. In short, Xiao Jingrui was going to kill until Lin Yuelan learned how to use it and then taught him!
Liu Yichen sighed heavily in his heart.
However, Jiang Zhennan did not seem to be worried.
That was because he knew Lin Yuelan’s trump card.
As expected, Jiang Zhennan and Liu Yichen received Lin Yuelan’s thousand-mile voice transmission at the last moment.
She said,” Brother Nan, Brother Liu, don’t make a sound. Listen to me! In 15 minutes, I need your full cooperation to save these people!”
Then, Lin Yuelan explained her plan and actions, as well as the weather phenomenon, to the two of them very clearly.
After Liu Yichen heard this, he was extremely surprised!
But then he calmed down. Due to the dark weather, Xiao Jingrui didn’t notice Liu Yichen’s abnormality at that moment.
His sharp eyes were fixed on the door of the courtyard, and a sharp light flashed across his eyes.
Time slowly passed by the hourglass.
Fifteen minutes felt so long at that moment.
The person in charge of staring at the hourglass didn’t dare to blink or breathe loudly at the last moment. He held his breath and waited for the last grain of sand to leak out of the sand funnel. Then, his job would be over.
Finally, when there was no more sand in the sand funnel, and only the last grain of sand was leaking out, the person in charge stared at it closely. Then, he nervously and loudly announced,” Time’s up!’
However, as soon as he finished counting, the grey sky became even darker, like a moonless night.
Suddenly, thunder and lightning flashed, and there was a deafening sound.
Then, it suddenly rained heavily from the sky, accompanied by a strong wind.
This strange phenomenon stunned everyone present!
