Chapter 160 Disappearance

Jiang Qingqing looked at the busy Lin Yuxi and Shen Minghui, and felt like an ant on a hot pot, extremely anxious.

She herself was also trying hard to complete the arduous challenge, but the progress was as slow as a turtle. In order to achieve her goal faster and escape the terrible fate, she finally decided to shamelessly seek help from Lin Yuxi and Shen Minghui.

"Lin Yuxi, Shen Minghui, can you help me?" Jiang Qingqing bit her lip, her eyes full of anxiety and expectation, staring at them eagerly.

Lin Yuxi knew Jiang Qingqing's character very well and didn't want to help her from the bottom of her heart.

But when I thought that if Jiang Qingqing failed to complete the task, she would be forced to marry the eight orcs, although Jiang Qingqing's usual behavior was annoying, her end was indeed pitiful and she did not deserve such a crime.

She sighed deeply, and finally said: "I can give you some advice, but the final result still depends on whether you work hard enough!"

The key to Jiang Qingqing's task is a matter of quantity accumulation. If she doesn't work hard to look around and only thinks about finding shortcuts to complete the task, it would be a pipe dream.

Jiang Qingqing seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and nodded hurriedly: "Okay, okay, thank you!"

Lin Yuxi patiently told her about some common and easily available ingredients, and also taught her some practical tips for storing food.

However, Jiang Qingqing obviously misunderstood Lin Yuxi's good intentions because she was full of jealousy and prejudice. She felt that Lin Yuxi was deliberately hiding the real effective method from her.

You know, when Jiang Qingqing attended the bonfire party before, she rashly accepted the gifts from 8 orcs because she did not understand the local customs, which led to her facing such a difficult challenge now.

If she fails to complete the task, she will be forced to marry those eight orcs whom she doesn't like at all.

At this point, Jiang Qingqing's heart was filled with regret and jealousy. She was jealous that Lin Yuxi was not only successful in her career, but also lived happily with Shen Minghui in this strange world, becoming an enviable couple, while she was stuck in the quagmire and unable to extricate herself.

Jiang Qingqing's face suddenly turned gloomy. Her vicious eyes fell on Lin Yuxi, and she cursed in her heart: "Hmph, Lin Yuxi, just wait and see, I won't let this go!"

Lin Yuxi seemed to sense Jiang Qingqing's unfriendly gaze, but she just smiled lightly without caring. In her eyes, she had long been accustomed to Jiang Qingqing's petty behavior.

Besides, she was also waiting for Jiang Qingqing to make a move?

It would only be reasonable and appropriate for her to clean up after her enemies did something stupid, wouldn't it?

Shen Minghui also saw what Jiang Qingqing was thinking, frowned, and leaned close to Lin Yuxi's ear and said, "Xixi, I'm afraid Jiang Qingqing won't appreciate it. Who knows what she's plotting against us in her heart."

Lin Yuxi nodded, her eyes firm: "Don't be afraid, the more you do at this time, the more mistakes you will make! But for the sake of caution, you should closely monitor her every move, right? It will be convenient for us to respond to her when the time comes! !"

Jiang Qingqing turned and left, muttering some unpleasant words all the way. When she returned to her residence, she looked at the hopeless task in front of her and felt even more irritated.

At this moment, an evil idea suddenly popped up in her mind: since Lin Yuxi was not really helping her, she might as well find a way to destroy their achievements and make things difficult for them.

……

On the other hand, Lin Yuxi and Shen Minghui had already anticipated that Jiang Qingqing would take action, and were waiting with bated breath.

"Minghui, do you think Jiang Qingqing will really come? I always felt that when she left today, there was something evil in her eyes." Lin Yuxi frowned slightly and said with a look of doubt on her face.

Shen Minghui snorted coldly: "Humph, with her selfish and narrow-minded character, if we don't agree to her excessive demands, will she let it go? I think she will come!"

Lin Yuxi looked solemn, her eyebrows furrowed, and her eyes were filled with deep worry. She was silent for a moment, and her mind quickly recalled Jiang Qingqing's resentful eyes when she left, as well as her slightly hasty and unnatural steps. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind like lightning.

"Not good!" Lin Yuxi exclaimed, and said anxiously, "We may be wrong. Jiang Qingqing may not be coming for the supplies we prepared."

"Her actions at that time were bad. Her real goal must be to destroy the medicinal herbs in the witch doctor's house! Those were the herbs that I spent countless efforts to collect and store. If she tampered with them, the tribe would suffer a huge loss."

After saying that, Lin Yuxi did not delay any longer and quickened her pace to rush towards the witch doctor's house. Seeing this, Shen Minghui hurriedly chased after her.

When they tiptoed to the witch doctor's house, as expected, they saw Jiang Qingqing sneaking around there, reaching out to a pile of precious herbs, many of which were rare species, some of which Lin Yuxi had spent a lot of time and effort to obtain.

Shen Minghui could no longer suppress his anger and shouted loudly, "Jiang Qingqing, what are you doing!" This sudden roar scared Jiang Qingqing so much that she trembled all over and the herbs in her hands fell to the ground. Her ulterior motive was thus exposed.

Jiang Qingqing's face turned pale in an instant, her eyes panicked, but she still stammered and tried to argue: "I... I was just passing by and came to take a look."

Lin Yuxi took a step forward, snorted coldly, and stared at her sharply, as if he could see through her: "Passing by? Jiang Qingqing, do you think we are three-year-old children? Don't think we can't see your thoughts!

We are all time travelers, and we have tolerated you again and again because of our friendship, and have always kept a shred of dignity. I never thought that you would be so ungrateful and repay kindness with hatred!"

Shen Minghui was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead, and he clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white. If Lin Yuxi hadn't been there to quickly hold him back, he would have probably lost control of his anger and would have punched.

"Jiang Qingqing, Xixi helped you out of kindness, but you are not grateful enough and you even want to do something bad to her! Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"

Jiang Qingqing bit her lip, a trace of resentment in her eyes: "You keep saying you will help me, but when it really comes to the point, don't you still reject my request? I am alone and helpless in this world, I just want to get more for myself, is that wrong?"

Lin Yuxi laughed in anger: "Strive for it? What you mean by striving for it is to use such despicable means to destroy the herbs we have worked so hard to collect, to vent your inner dissatisfaction? These herbs are vital to the people of the entire tribe, how can you be so selfish!"

Shen Minghui frowned, looked at Jiang Qingqing and said, "It's not easy for everyone to travel here. We have been supporting each other, but what about you? You only care about yourself and don't care about others at all! Are you worthy of everyone's efforts by doing this?"

Jiang Qingqing knew that there was nothing she could do now that her whereabouts had been exposed, so she turned around and was about to leave.

At this time, their quarrel attracted other people from the witch doctor's house and patrolling orcs. Everyone gathered around, pointing and talking.

"What's going on?" asked an orc.

"It seems like someone has destroyed important medicinal materials?" someone answered in a low voice.

Jiang Qingqing saw that the matter had become serious and she couldn't help but feel a little flustered. If the people in the tribe knew that she came here in the middle of the night to destroy the medicinal materials, what would happen to her...

Jiang Qingqing seemed to have seen some horrible scene. She pushed away the crowd in front of her and rushed out of the tribe desperately.

"Stop! You can't just let go of what you did today!" Lin Yuxi shouted.

However, Jiang Qingqing acted as if she didn't hear anything. Instead, she quickened her pace and fled, soon disappearing from everyone's sight.
