People in Qin Dynasty: Opening the treasure chest, I took off!

Chapter 50, the final chapter of Volume 1

"Goodbye..." Yan Lingji glanced back, "Korea."

"We'll meet again," Xia Bing said.

"real?"

"Really." Xia Bing smiled. "Maybe a few years, maybe a decade or more."

But one day...

"We will be back."

The group nodded and quickened their pace.

Ahead lies an unknown journey.

But no matter what lies ahead...

They will face it together.

……

(A bright and sunny morning in Xinzheng City.)

(Some people have embarked on a new journey.)

(Ahead lies the State of Zhao, the State of Qin, and an unknown world.)

(But they won't be afraid.)

(Because they are together.)

a few days later.

The group arrived in the State of Zhao.

The capital of the Zhao state, Handan, was more prosperous than Xinzheng.

The streets were bustling with people, but the atmosphere was somewhat tense.

"News of the Qin army's advance has spread," Han Fei said. "The entire state of Zhao is preparing for war."

"How long can the State of Zhao hold out?" Xia Bing asked.

"It's hard to say," Han Fei shook his head. "Zhao has a renowned general like Li Mu; perhaps they can hold out for a while."

"But the Qin state was too powerful, and ultimately..."

"I know." Xia Bing nodded. "Let's find a place to stay first."

"good."

The group found a house in the city to stay in.

The yard is bigger than the one in South Korea; it's big enough for several of them to live in.

"Finally settled down." Jing Ni breathed a sigh of relief. "This journey has been quite arduous."

"Thank you for your hard work," Xia Bing said with a smile. "Taking care of children is never easy."

"Thankfully, they helped us." Jingni looked at Xue Nu and Li Wu.

"We take turns leading the way, so it's not tiring."

"That's good."

……

After settling in.

Xia Bing began to consider her next plan.

"Xia Bing." Jing Ni walked over. "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about..." Xia Bing said, "our future."

"future?"

"Yes." Xia Bing nodded. "The state of Han is gone; next up is the state of Zhao."

"No one knows how long the Zhao state can hold out."

"Then we..."

"Continue preparations," Xia Bing said. "Be prepared to evacuate at any time."

"Where to evacuate to?"

"...Xia Bing was silent for a moment, "...Perhaps it's the Qin state."

"Qin?" Jing Ni asked, somewhat surprised. "Why Qin?"

"Because..." Xia Bing looked at her, "there are some things I have to do."

"What is it?"

Xia Bing did not answer.

He looked into the distance, his eyes deep and thoughtful.

You'll find out later.

Jingni looked at his profile and suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

She didn't know what Xia Bing was carrying on her shoulders.

But she could tell he was very tired.

"Xia Bing." She walked over and took his hand.

"Whatever you do..." she said, "we'll be with you."

Xia Bing looked at her and smiled.

"I know."

He reached out and pulled her into his arms.

"Thank you, Jingni."

"You're welcome." Jing Ni leaned against his chest. "I'm your woman."

"That will never change."

Xia Bing lowered her head and kissed her forehead.

"Um."

[Insert: Flashback to a Past Life]

On the battlefield.

Xia Bing was struck in the chest with a heavy blow, and her body flew backward.

"Xia Bing!" Jing Ni's exclamation rang in my ears, but it grew farther and farther away.

His consciousness began to fade.

The scene before my eyes gradually distorted—

……

rainy night.

He knelt on the ground, covered in blood.

Before me was a figure with its back turned.

A woman's figure is receding into the distance.

"Don't go!" he tried to shout, but no sound came out.

"Wait for me..."

He reached out desperately, but couldn't grasp anything.

The figure grew farther and farther away, more and more blurred, until it finally disappeared into the rain.

……

"Xia Bing! Xia Bing!"

Someone is calling him.

He suddenly opened his eyes.

The faces of Jingni, Xue Nu, Zi Nu, and Yan Ling Ji came into view.

"Are you alright?" Jingni asked anxiously.

Xia Bing lay on the ground, her chest still aching faintly.

He raised his head and looked up at the distant sky.

"……fine."

He slowly stood up, a complex look flashing in his eyes.

"This time..."

He gripped the sword tightly in his hand.

"I won't lose again."

The two embraced, gazing at the distant sky.

As the sun sets, the sky is ablaze with evening glow.

"So beautiful..." Jingni whispered.

"Yes," Xia Bing nodded, "It's beautiful."

They all know.

The road ahead is still long.

Many unknown dangers await them.

But as long as we're together...

I'm not afraid of anything.
