Mutated Tao Chapter 470: Village


"Crackling." The wheels of the car made two narrow car marks on the ground.

Li Huowang was sitting on the front board of the car, flicking his whip to drive the horses away, while Li Sui, who was wearing a coir raincoat, sat beside him, looking curiously at the sparrows on the branches through the newly hung black gauze under the bamboo hat .

Li Huowang reached out and knocked on the carriage. "Miaomiao, there's no need to stay inside every day, it's so boring, now it's dusk, you can come out to get some air."

Bai Lingmiao lifted the curtain of the car, sat gently beside Li Huowang, took off the white gauze covering her eyes, and looked around.

Looking at the delicate side face, Li Huowang found that Bai Lingmiao seemed to be a little different. If her eyes were pink in the past, now her eyes have turned pink and white.

It is self-evident what this represents.

Li Huowang stretched out his hand and squeezed her hand to comfort her: "It's okay, Shangjing will arrive soon, and when we get there, we will definitely find a solution to your eyes."

Among the four things, Niuxin Village's self-protection problem has been temporarily resolved, and the next most urgent thing is Bai Lingmiao's eyes.

This matter is very urgent, but fortunately, it is not as difficult as imagined to solve this matter.

After witnessing the previous battle between Jian Tiansi and Zuo Wangdao, Li Huowang didn't think it was difficult to change a pair of eyes in this chaotic world.

"Brother Li, why did you ask me to follow?" Bai Lingmiao asked softly.

"Of course you have to follow. This is to cure your eyes. How can you treat them if you don't come?" Li Huowang replied quite naturally.

"Oh." Bai Lingmiao answered softly with her head lowered.

"Are you tired? There is a village ahead, we can spend the night there tonight instead of sleeping in the carriage."

"Don't worry, according to the current speed, we will almost reach Shangjing tomorrow night. By then, you will not only be able to see everything clearly again, but you will also be able to open your eyes in broad daylight."

"Well, okay, Senior Brother Li, I'll listen to you."

It was not the first time for Li Huowang to go to Beijing, and he was already familiar with the road. When the sunset was about to disappear, a series of villages appeared in front of him.

But as he approached, Bai Lingmiao showed a trace of worry on his face. "Brother Li, it's the same here."

It's fine from a close look, but as long as you look closely, some adobe houses are crooked and look crumbling. The weeds and messy spider webs mean that these houses have not been lived in for a while.

Although Li Huowang's face was solemn, he was not surprised, because this was not the first time he encountered such a situation.

Although the natural disaster lasted for a short time, the unlucky villages basically sent away some people.

Even if some villages are lucky and nothing happens, that is just a case.

This is not a matter of one or two villages, it is a matter of the whole world, God knows how many people died in the process.

"Who are you looking for?" An old voice made Li Huowang grasp the hilt of his sword instantly.

But seeing that these words were spoken by an old man with only a few teeth left in his mouth, trembling and leaning on crutches, Li Huowang let go of the weapon.

A black cloth is draped over his right shoulder, signifying a recent death in the family. ...

"Old man, it's me, remember? I stayed here last time." Li Huowang walked up to him and said after snapping his fingers between his eyes.

The old man stared at Li Huowang's face for a while, and suddenly realized: "Ah~ it's you, little doll, come here. There are many empty houses in the village. You can stay here for as long as you want. .”

When he saw him walking forward, Bai Lingmiao quietly walked up to Li Huowang, "Brother Li, do you really know him?"

"No, it's just some tricks, the old man's memory is not good."

As the man led the two of them in, gradually other people in the village appeared in front of Li Huowang.

These men and women were holding big bowls, squatting or standing around a big banyan tree, eating and talking while it was still dark.

When they saw Li Huowang's carriage, they all paid attention to it. Many people who are familiar with the old man will chat casually. "Master Zhao, is there a relative here?"

Although their expressions were normal, all of them had black cloths hanging on their arms. This was the most black cloths that Li Huowang saw along the way.

Soon, Li Huowang was brought to a clean courtyard of a small earthen house. "This belongs to my youngest son. He died in the first two years, so you can live here."

"Thank you so much. Mr. Zhao, I still need to trouble you so much."

"Hey, what you said is right, it's just an excuse, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter."

Looking at his back, Bai Lingmiao said with a sympathetic voice: "Brother Li, it seems that many people died here because of the last natural disaster."

Hearing this, Li Huowang immediately looked at Zhuge Yuan. At this moment, he stood silently in the middle of the distance, with his back turned to himself.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention. Based on Li Huowang's understanding of him, Zhuge Yuan would definitely blame himself for the deaths of these people.

"Forget it, it's all in the past, don't talk about it, I'll go to the well to fetch water and make a hot meal."

Because there is still a long way to go tomorrow, so I ate casually for dinner, and the two of them went to bed after washing up.

Li Huowang thought that nothing would happen at night, but in the middle of the night, he was woken up by Li Sui, who was in charge of the night watch.

Li Huowang glanced at Bai Lingmiao who was breathing slowly beside him, and asked Li Sui who was beside the bed in the lowest voice: "What's the matter?"

"Dad, they are singing outside."

"Huh?" Li Huowang glanced at Bai Lingmiao again, got off the bed lightly, opened the door and walked out.

Soon under the previous banyan tree, Li Huowang saw a group of people forming a circle, dancing and dancing.

They are none other than the villagers under the banyan tree, even the old man who led Li Huowang before.

"Dad, what are they doing?"

"Shh, don't make noise, let me take a look."

Li Huowang frowned gradually, as if he had something to do with a sect he had never seen before.

But what is puzzling is that when the old man took them into the village, he had checked them deliberately, and he didn't feel any malice from his emotions.

"Could it be that they are also good people just like the teacher?" Li Huowang thought for a while and finally decided to wait and see what they were going to do.

Whether they are malicious to him or not, at least now Li Huowang is not afraid.

Because of the distance, what they chanted could only be transmitted to Li Huowang's ears intermittently.

"Suffering infinite embarrassment and all kinds of unsatisfactory things. Yu Ershen, everything is not satisfactory. There is no money and no food. Yu Ershen, all clothes are exhausted."
