Exile? A mad, wicked woman empties the national treasury to escape famine.

Li Ergou stared wide-eyed in disbelief. He couldn't believe his ears! This woman actually said that silver would fall from the sky later?!

He can understand these words individually, but when they're put together, he can't quite understand them.

"What did you just say? That silver would fall from the sky?"

He subconsciously looked up at the sky. It was a light blue sky, cloudless, with a fiery red sun hanging in the sky, making people dizzy and lightheaded, just like any other day.

Losing money like that is truly unheard of.

Ji Yunshu didn't explain, but smiled and said, "This sounds a bit unbelievable, but it is something that will definitely happen. You just wait here, and after a cup of tea, silver will start falling from the sky."

"We'll leave first, don't worry. We have a lot of people and carriages, so even if we leave, we won't go far. If what I said doesn't come true after an incense stick has burned, then you can bring people to chase after us."

His voice was calm and unhurried, which made people feel at ease.

Li Ergou frowned deeply.

What the woman in front of him said was utterly unbelievable, but seeing her confident demeanor, Li Ergou began to waver.

What if what she said is true?

If each of them had some silver and could enter the city, they would have completely turned their lives around and ended their life of wandering. It goes without saying how tempting these words were to these disaster victims; no one could resist them.

They all wanted a peaceful and stable life.

He was no longer as fierce as before, but looked at Ji Yunshu cautiously, as if he had made up his mind.

"Alright, then I believe you. I'll wait here with them for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. If it's really as you say, and we get through this safely, I will definitely lead everyone to build a temple for you, and we will all make offerings to you and pray for your well-being."

"But what if you're lying to us...?"

He smiled bitterly. Even if the woman had really lied to them, they couldn't possibly chase after her to do anything anymore.

"Don't worry, if I said it, it must be true. My name is Ji Yunshu, my husband's name is Xie Moyao, and our destination is in the Northwest. If what I said doesn't come true, you can just follow the road and come find me."

A hint of doubt flashed in Li Ergou's eyes. Xie Moyao...

Why does this name sound so familiar?

I feel like I've heard that somewhere before.

"Alright, since Miss Ji has said so, then I will trust you. You can take your people and leave. I will talk to the disaster victims."

He didn't know if his decision was right or wrong, but a voice inside him kept telling him to believe.

Ji Yunshu nodded, said nothing more, turned around, and called out to Ling Yun and the others.

"Let's go first."

Everyone...

Is that all? Can we really go now?

Ling Yun was somewhat incredulous, and with a hint of disbelief, he called out to the group, "Get up, let's set off."

The surrounding disaster victims were a bit agitated, so Li Ergou quickly calmed them down, "Everyone, let them leave first. I'll tell you the details later."

The disaster victims looked at each other, somewhat unwilling, but they still obediently listened to Li Ergou and made way for Ji Yunshu and her group.

Ling Yun and the others were completely dumbfounded...

Is that all?

Is it really time to walk?

What exactly did Ji Yunshu say to that disaster victim?

These people were actually willing to let them leave like that.

Never mind, I'll just go first and figure it out later.

He urged everyone to quickly jump onto the carriage, and Ling Yun led the officials at the front, the group leaving the city gate in a grand procession.

They had walked quite a distance, and everyone was still a little disoriented, feeling as if it were all unreal.

Just moments ago they were at loggerheads with the disaster victims, but the next second they were leaving safely.

Everyone had their own thoughts.

The procession moved slowly. Ji Yunshu, inside the carriage, lifted the curtain, looked at the city gate behind her, and estimated that the time and distance were about right.

She glanced at Xie Moyao lying down and saw that he was looking at her intentionally or unintentionally. She blinked and said, "Well, I'll go to the other carriage to get something."

After saying that, without waiting for Xie Moyao to speak, he jumped off the carriage and got into another carriage loaded with supplies.

This carriage was bought specifically to transport supplies, and no one usually comes up on it. After Ji Yunshu entered the carriage, she flashed into her spatial dimension and went to the third floor of the villa. She sorted through all the gold and silver treasures she had collected the night before, leaving behind the large items and taking all the loose silver to the first floor.

Then he went to the shopping mall, took out a remote-controlled drone, returned to the lobby with the drone, put the loose silver coins he had collected into a bag, and hung it on the drone.

Then, taking the remote control, he led the drone out of the space.

After lifting the carriage curtain and making sure no one was paying attention to her carriage, she piloted the drone out of the carriage and flew back the way they had come.

The remote control has a screen connected to a small camera on the drone, so Ji Yunshu can see the outside situation from inside the carriage through the camera on the drone.

They were not far from the city gate. When she piloted the drone back, the group of disaster victims was still gathered outside the city gate, which was still closed.

The group of disaster victims sat there blankly, surrounding Li Ergou. Li Ergou kept talking to them, his mouth moving constantly and his hands gesturing.

The disaster victims sat there blankly, their gazes finally settling on the direction Ji Yunshu and her group had left, their eyes as still as a dead pool.

Ji Yunshu manipulated the remote control, raising the drone to a higher position. After confirming that the disaster victims below could not see the drone, she aimed in the right direction, flipped the drone over, and poured all the loose silver coins from the bag down from the air.

To avoid the money falling on the heads and bodies of the disaster victims, Ji Yunshu deliberately chose a distance of a few meters away from them.

"Clap clap clap clap".

"Clap clap clap clap"

As the silver coins fell, the once dry ground was kicked up with dust.

Li Ergou was extremely anxious. Just as he was repeatedly asking himself if he had trusted the wrong person, he saw tiny things falling from the sky like raindrops and landing on the ground.

Li Ergou............

I go.

Are you serious?

He thought he'd been scammed!

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm here!"

"It's really here! Can you see that?! Silver, silver is really falling from the sky!"

"My God! It really is silver! This is unbelievable!"

The victims rushed over eagerly, picked up the silver from the ground, looked at it in disbelief, and some even put the silver in their mouths to bite it.

The disaster victims went wild after it was confirmed that it really was silver!

They rushed over all at once, lay down on the ground, and kept grabbing at the ground with their hands.

As they were making their grabs, Ji Yunshu kept pouring the silver coins off the drone.
