Chapter 3075 Entering the village for treatment
Li Yifei nodded. Although he rode a horse with the girl, he still kept a distance and did not do anything randomly. Although he had a feeling that he could reach out and would be warm and warm in his arms as long as he stretched out his hand, he would do whatever he wanted, but... it was impossible!
Ma Xing forward, after about half an hour, Li Yifei saw some traces of the village. At this moment, several people suddenly ran out of the roadside, including men and women, old and young. After seeing the girl on the horse, she rushed over with crying and shouting. The girl's body trembled, her face turned pale, and she said in a lost voice: "My brother... is he gone?"
"No, Xiaoyue, your brother is still alive!" an elderly man gasped for a few breaths and said.
The girl felt relieved when she heard this, and then introduced in surprise: "This is the cultivator I have found. He has a way to save my brother!"
"Ah? That's great. Xiaoyue, please invite your benefactor into the village. Your brother is almost out of reach and needs treatment immediately!" a woman shouted.
Li Yifei nodded slightly, looked at the group of people surrounding his horses and went into the village together.
This village is a bit... strange. As soon as he entered the village, Li Yifei couldn't help but frown. There was no one in the village. No, it should be said that there were no people. His current power could be felt by a large range. In his feelings, he did not notice how many people were!
The village is not big, but even if there are three or five people in each family, it shouldn’t be the ones in front of you. Li Yifei couldn’t help but frown and asked, “Where are the people in the village?”
"The people in the village..." the girl hesitated and said, "They all went to work. There was a mine there. In addition to farm work, everyone went to work in the mine, so that they could get some money to buy food!"
"Are you going?" Li Yifei asked, the implication was that both the elderly and the children would go, otherwise why wouldn't there even be a child?
Before the girl could make a sound, she heard the old man leading the horse say, "Not all of them are going, but children aged seven or eight can work, and children who are too young need someone to take care of them, so they take them over together. Sometimes they don't come back for a few days, so it's impossible to keep the children at home!"
"That's how..." Li Yifei nodded and said, "Then why are you at home?"
"We... all my sons have gone, my daughter-in-law have gone, and all the children have gone, and I am the only old man left. I can't live for a few days, so stay at home!"
"I think your body is OK!" Li Yifei said.
"My benefactor, I can't do it anymore, but please be sure to save Xiaoyue's younger brother. That child's life is in a miserable state!" said the old man.
"Try your best. I didn't see the specific disease, and I couldn't just say it to save it!" Li Yifei said.
"It must be possible, it must be possible!" The old man nodded repeatedly.
Because there were too many people, he walked slowly. It took him a while to enter the village, and no one came out to greet him. There were only these seven people, including men, women, old and young. Li Yifei felt that he had no cultivation, but his face was generally pale and his body was swaying, as if it was the consequence of long-term malnutrition. Li Yifei wanted to give them some food. Later, when he thought that he could help for a while, he could not help them all the time, so he gave up.
Dismounted and tied the horse under a tree, Li Yifei asked, "Where is your brother?"
"My benefactor, it's not convenient to see him now. Please give me some time. I'll help him clean up first so as not to be unclean!" said the girl.
"Is that serious?"
"Because I've been sick for too long, my body is full of pustules. After it is broken, it smells very bad and looks scary. I'll go and wash it for him first so that I won't hit my benefactor!"
"It's okay, go!" Li Yifei nodded.
The old man brought a bowl of water and said embarrassedly: "My benefactor, there is really no wine in the village, only this bowl of well water. My benefactor quenches his thirst!"
"No, I'm not thirsty!"
"Drink, benefactor, my well has been around for hundreds of years, and the water inside is good. In the past, the sects around us all came here to get water and go back to make tea!" said the old man.
"Is that good?" Li Yifei asked with a smile.
Several people nodded repeatedly, and Li Yifei took it over. When he approached his mouth, he paused for a moment. The water was very clear and there was no impurities. Li Yifei took a sip and found that it was indeed very sweet and suitable for making tea. He drank it all in one drink. There was a sweetness in the water. I don’t know if it was his own illusion or it was really like this.
It took another half an hour for the girl to go. Li Yifei sat under the tree and the others were standing around. He asked, "The people in the village have gone to the mine, what about you? How do you live?"
"If someone goes there, he will send some food for a while. Since we cannot work, we will not pick them up. Just eat some!"
"But along the way, I haven't seen you plant crops. I don't know where they all planted?" Li Yifei turned around and asked. This was his question, because he had never seen it before.
This is equivalent to the Loess Plateau on the earth. The hills are undulating and there are not many trees on the surface, so there are not many greens. But since it is crops, it should be talented, and he has not seen any of them along the way.
"This... I'm going to say that the weather this year is not good, and the crops we planted didn't even grow a few. Later, the winds were blown to death, and life became even more difficult!"
"Is there a river nearby?" Li Yifei asked.
"No, the nearest river is fifty or sixty miles away, and the flow is very small!" said the old man.
"It seems that the whole village has to rely on that well to live!"
"Yes..." The few people nodded, but Li Yifei's face changed and pointed to an old ox cart dozens of meters away and asked: "Since the river is so far away, what is this water-pulling cart for?"
"Ah?" Several people were stunned at the same time when they heard this, and quickly said: "This... is used to water seedlings. It rains less here, so..."
As he was talking, the girl came back, had already changed into a set of clothes, tied her hair, saluted Li Yifei, and then said, "Benefactor, I have... helped my brother to wash it. My benefactor can go to see a doctor!"
"Yes, I'll see a doctor first. I'll kill the chicken. I'll treat my benefactor no matter what," the old man said hurriedly.
Li Yifei said with a word and said, "Let's lead the way."
The girl walked in front. This was the innermost house in the village, and even the courtyard wall. When she arrived at the door, she said, "My brother is underground... His body is easy to get hot and he can't stand the sun, so he dug a hole in the ground and let him be inside. Don't be surprised by his benefactor!"
