The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

"There's always a way." Gu Qingheng pressed his parched lips together, "I'll carry you."

Gu Ning could only take a bite of the ginseng. Honestly, it didn't taste that great, but he felt a bit of strength returning.

"Big Brother, let me carry him." Gu Qiao crouched down first.

"I can walk." Shadow Six, Gu Ning, pushed Gu Qiao away, "Just help me along."

Shadow Two, Gu Di, stepped forward to support Gu Ning.

And just like that, everyone helped one another for another stretch, yet all they could see around them was endless yellow sand.

Gu Qingheng let out a sigh. Xinxin, if I can't make it out of here today… what… what will you do? But just as the thought came to mind, there was a sudden tightness in his chest. He shook his head, desperately dispelling the idea. No, he would definitely make it out. They hadn't consummated their marriage yet, he hadn't given her the happiness she deserved.

At that very moment, the distant sound of eagles crying suddenly reached them from above.

Gu Qingheng briefly thought he was imagining it.

"Big Brother, it's Xiaohei..." Shangguan Fei was the first to react, "It's Xiaohei's call!"

Everyone's eyes lit up instantly.

Gu Qingheng raised his eyes toward the sky, and sure enough, a few black dots quickly appeared against the azure blue. The sound was unmistakably familiar. He hurriedly placed his fingers to his lips and let out a long, resonant whistle.

Trailing behind Xiaohei were his mate, his offspring, and Gugu. In no time, they were circling overhead, seemingly trying to confirm if these were the people they were searching for.

After three days and nights of trekking, the group had become disheveled and unrecognizable.

Finally, Xiaohei landed before Gu Qingheng, tilting his head to scrutinize him with a look of disdain.

Gu Qingheng didn't quite understand Xiaohei's expression but knew they were saved. He saw small water pouches tied to the legs of the eagles, evidently kept minimal to avoid hindering their flight. Despite their size, the water was enough to quell their immediate crisis.

"Xinxin must've sent you, right?" After taking a few sips of water, Gu Qingheng felt alive again. He reached out to pat Xiaohei's head.

Xiaohei rubbed against his hand. Naturally, Xinxin had sent him—who else besides the mighty Eagle King could find them in this desert?

Though Gu Qingheng didn't understand Xiaohei's answer, he knew it was a 'yes.' He sighed, "Xinxin truly is my lucky star."

Xiaohei rolled his eyes. Only now you realize? Then stay away from those vixens in the future...

Heihei quickly chimed in, "Dear mate and father of our children, where is any vixen?"

Xiaohei gave a nod toward Peng Jing, gesturing. See her? That's the vixen. Look at the way she's eyeing our Sister-in-law's husband—it's like she's got hooks in her eyes... And look, she's sidling closer...

Heihei hopped forward in a hurry, positioning herself right in front of Gu Qingheng. She flapped her wings with sudden vigor, stirring up a whirlwind of sand.

Peng Jing, who had been edging closer, immediately got sand in her eyes. "Ahhh, you miserable bird..." She had no choice but to turn away and rub her eyes.

The rest of the group pretended not to see anything. After three days in the desert, this woman had been nothing but trouble. They were thoroughly annoyed with her anyway. Besides, these eagles were the pets of their sister-in-law—intelligent creatures whose actions were always purposeful...

Gu Qingheng also acted as if he hadn't noticed. Instead, he turned to Xiaohei. "Can you take these two out?" He pointed at Shadow Three and Shadow Six as he spoke.
