At this moment, the three of them realized that they were too engrossed in their conversation that they completely overlooked the absence of one person!
The square was packed with people. Considering Jiang Gu was still so small, if someone accidentally bumped into her, leading to a stampede, she could lose her life!
The thought alone terrified Zhou Lan, and tears sprang to her eyes.
Jiang Chuan comforted her, “Don’t worry. Xiao Gu is smart and alert. She’d definitely avoid the crowd. Let’s go look for her!”
They searched the entire square, earning many glares from villagers bustling about with food, but they found no sign of her. Zhou Lan became even more fearful, squatting to one side and starting to cry.
Jiang Xia, much calmer than Zhou Lan, left their mother with their father and went searching on her own.
She had a plan. She kept a rabbit in her interspace because Xiao Gu adored it. She refused to eat it, leaving Jiang Xia no choice but to keep it in her interspace.
The rabbit seemed to sense that Xiao Gu loved it, always sticking close to her. Every time Jiang Xia let the rabbit out in the yard, it could find Xiao Gu by her scent.
With so many people around, the scents were overwhelming. Jiang Xia wasn’t sure if the rabbit could pick up Xiao Gu’s scent, but it was worth a shot rather than searching aimlessly.
Considering they didn’t find her in the square, Jiang Gu might have snuck off somewhere.
Jiang Xia walked outside the square and, when no one was looking, secretly released the rabbit.
The pure white rabbit, with not a single blemish, stood steadily on the ground. Having been raised for a while, it didn’t behave like a wild rabbit, but more like a pet, exuding an air of delicacy.
Jiang Xia petted the rabbit, saying, “It’s up to you now. If you find her, I’ll reward you with a carrot tonight!”
The rabbit seemed to understand. It sniffed the ground and hopped in a certain direction. Jiang Xia quickly followed.
It stopped beside a donkey cart, loaded with grain meant for the village. Perhaps frightened by the donkey, the rabbit shivered slightly.
Jiang Xia, picking up the rabbit, looked around but didn’t spot Jiang Gu. She felt a pang of disappointment and regretted relying on a rabbit for such a crucial task.
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out, “Mr. Donkey, are you tired from pulling carts every day?”
It was Jiang Gu!
Jiang Xia quickly moved to the front of the cart and found Jiang Gu feeding carrots to the donkey. Hidden behind the large creature, she hadn’t been visible before.
The rabbit in Jiang Xia’s arms leaped out and darted to Jiang Gu, knocking her over. Only after cuddling the rabbit did she notice her sister standing nearby. “Sis, come see! The donkey is talking!”
Relieved to see Jiang Gu safe, Jiang Xia chalked up her words to childish imagination. She walked over, pulled her up, and placed the rabbit back in her interspace.
The donkey brayed.
Jiang Xia led Jiang Gu back to Zhou Lan.
As they walked, Jiang Gu turned to the donkey, “Goodbye. I’ll come to see you again soon.”
While they walked, Jiang Xia lectured her, “Xiao Gu, you can’t run off like that. Do you realize how worried we were?”
Head bowed, Jiang Gu replied, “I’m sorry, Sis. I won’t do it again. And 1 know you let out the rabbit to find me and promised it a carrot.”
Stunned, Jiang Xia recalled her words to the rabbit. “How did you know I was going to feed it a carrot?”
Jiang Gu, eyes sparkling, said, “The rabbit told me! Don’t forget the carrot tonight, okay?”
It dawned on Jiang Xia; Jiang Gu could communicate with animals! Before, she might have dismissed the idea. But now, after experiencing time travel and superpowers, nothing seemed impossible.
However, this needed verification. She’d discuss it after finding their parents..
