Hearing this, Lin Xiu felt uncomfortable in his heart. He really did not expect that so many tragedies would happen in the world when the calamity was about to come.
As he imagined, everyone would help each other, but it did not happen. On the contrary, the development of the situation gradually exceeded everyone's expectations. The ugliest side of human nature had become more and more intense at this moment.
Lin Xiu tried to make his expression as kind as possible, then said to the father and daughter, "Don't worry, in fact, even without the herbs, it can be cured."
The father and daughter still could not believe that the young man in front of them would be so kind, but if they could not cure their injuries as soon as possible, then this family of three would lose their most important source of income and their lives would become more and more difficult.
At this time, they could only try to make a Hail Mary. After struggling in his heart, the middle-aged man nodded to Lin Xiu, then said with a voice full of gratitude, "Then I'll have to trouble you, little brother."
Lin Xiu stretched out his hands and then pressed a few times on the middle-aged man's broken leg. Suddenly, the man clenched his teeth and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, it was obvious that he was in extreme pain.
"Endure it for a while, don\'t connect your broken bones first. It will be more painful next, you have to be mentally prepared first." Lin Xiu\'s expression was solemn as he said to the man and suddenly pressed down with both hands. A series of cracking sounds resounded clearly in their ears. The little girl stared at Lin Xiu's hands without blinking, afraid that something would happen to her father.
After the middle-aged man experienced the pain, he carefully lifted his broken leg and was surprised to find that the pain at this time was not as intense as before, and he could even move it faintly. This made him overjoyed and he hurriedly revealed a grateful expression to Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu stopped the middle-aged man, then said to them softly, "Don't worry, this is just a small injury, as long as you recuperate for a period of time, you will recover. By the way, I heard that your wife went up the mountain to collect herbs, why hasn't she returned yet?"
"Benefactor, the two of us are unable to repay your help this time." The middle-aged man first expressed his gratitude to Lin Xiu, then said with some worry, "Ever since the sky turned dark, the beasts on the mountain have become more and more violent. I accidentally fell from the mountain while avoiding a tiger. My wife went to pick herbs for my injured leg. Although I tried to dissuade her, it was useless. I could only lie on the bed helplessly and was unable to stop her."
Lin Xiu's brows were also furrowed. In the darkness, the monsters were naturally uneasy. They didn't know if the man's wife was in danger at this moment. His Spiritual Sense instantly shrouded the area, and he thoroughly investigated the terrain within a radius of a hundred miles.
"Brother, isn't your wife a little chubby? Wearing a wooden hairpin on her head? " Lin Xiu said to the middle-aged man. When the latter heard this, he immediately became excited and nodded hurriedly.
"Benefactor, how did you know? May I ask how my wife is doing? "
"I\'m afraid your wife is in a little trouble now, but don\'t worry, I will be back soon." Lin Xiu comforted the father and daughter, then gently pushed the door open and went outside. Following the direction he found, his figure instantly soared into the air, and in the blink of an eye, he came to a barren mountain top.
On the top of the mountain, there was a woman with a panicked expression, staring at a wild wolf with cold eyes in front of her. She staggered and kept retreating.
She was just an ordinary peasant woman and had never been to this mountain top. If it wasn\'t for her husband\'s injury, why would she take such a risk?
The wild wolf slowly approached the woman and at the same time, left deep marks on the ground with its front claws.
Ever since the world was completely shrouded in darkness, very few people dared to go up the mountain alone. This also caused many wild beasts to hide in their own caves and did not dare to easily go out to hunt. In this way, all the wild beasts could basically only starve recently. To this wild wolf, the woman in front of him was just right to satisfy its desire for food.
The woman closed her eyes in despair. She knew that if no miracle happened, she would die in the wolf\'s mouth. She just didn\'t know how her husband and poor child would live in the future.
However, the imagined pain did not come. The woman quietly opened her eyes and found that there was a handsome young man in front of her, looking at her with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, I\'ve frightened you. Your husband and child are waiting for you at home."
Lin Xiu casually used a gentle wave of elemental energy to sweep the wild wolf into the depths of the forest.
As he had a close relationship with the Demon Clan, Lin Xiu no longer had the deep hatred for ordinary wild beasts. The reason why this wild wolf wanted to attack the rich was only for its own survival, so Lin Xiu did not make things difficult for it.
Looking at Lin Xiu who descended from the sky, the woman was pleasantly surprised and still in disbelief.
Previously, she was sure that there were no traces of humans on this mountain top, so when the wild wolf approached her step by step, she tried to call for help, hoping that someone would hear the news and come over. However, no matter how she shouted, there was no response at all. So Lin Xiu in front of her was especially mysterious in her heart.
After hearing about her husband and daughter, the woman also let down her guard against Lin Xiu and then nodded at him, "Thank you benefactor for saving my life, I really have no way to repay you. I wonder how my husband and child are now?"
"Don\'t worry, your husband\'s broken leg has been healed by me. Now they are waiting for you to come home." As Lin Xiu spoke, a wave of elemental energy rose under his feet. He waved at the woman and his body instantly floated up.
This woman was just an ordinary farmer and had never seen a real cultivator. Naturally, she did not know how magical it was to be able to easily fly in the air. At this moment, she saw that she was getting further and further away from the ground. At the same time, there was an indescribable excitement in her heart.
"Sister-in-law, you don\'t have to panic. We will be able to reach your home in just a moment." Lin Xiu comforted the woman. Because the other party was just a mortal, he could not burst out with full speed and could only fly at a slow speed. But even so, the distance of a hundred miles was covered in a cup of tea.
Slowly floating down from the sky, the little girl who had been waiting at the door had a look of worship in her eyes. After seeing her mother, she threw herself into the woman\'s arms.
The woman gently patted her daughter\'s back, then warmly invited Lin Xiu into the room. At this moment, the family of three was finally reunited. Looking at this happy and harmonious scene, Lin Xiu was also sincerely happy for them.
"Big brother, sister-in-law, since your family is now reunited, then I will not stay any longer." Lin Xiu stood up, his green robe fluttering without any wind, and said to the family of three.
How could the middle-aged man and the woman let their savior, Lin Xiu, leave just like that? They really didn\'t know how to behave. They tried to persuade him to stay, but Lin Xiu really had something important to do. After drinking a cup of water, he stepped into the distance alone.
When he heard his wife say that Lin Xiu could actually fly in the air with her, the middle-aged man\'s face was full of disbelief.
"I once heard some of the elders in the village mention that any immortal who can fly in the sky is powerful and has the ability to reverse the universe. It is really our blessing to be able to meet him this time." The man said with a sigh.
At this moment, the little girl who was playing next to the table suddenly found a piece of shiny gold. She went to her father\'s bed and took it out.
"This young immortal is really a good person." The woman and the middle-aged man looked at each other and began to silently pray for Lin Xiu in their hearts.
After leaving the village, Lin Xiu, who was flying in the sky, felt an indescribable joy in his heart. He had always thought that after seeing so many tragedies in the world, it was really a very stupid thing to want to be kidnapped by these people. However, the middle-aged man\'s family let Lin Xiu know that there was not only endless darkness in this world, but there was also some light that was tenaciously shining its own light.
Lin Xiu, who had a burden in his heart, felt that his whole body was clear, and his mentality had unknowingly undergone an amazing transformation.
Sometimes, all kinds of things in the world were so difficult to figure out.
In the boundless world, there were all kinds of strange things, and often in times of crisis, it was especially obvious.
Next, Lin Xiu began a new round of traveling in the world of mortals. This time, he completely sealed all his strength. In order to be able to comprehend without distractions, he even took the initiative to seal his own memory.
The last place Lin Xiu came to was a noisy street. Although the sky was dark, in order to maintain their own survival, there were still many vendors spontaneously came to the street and shouted there.
"Big and round white steamed buns …"
"Candied haws …"
Lin Xiu, who had lost all his memories, was like a piece of white paper. He walked blindly on the street and felt that everything was very novel.
He wandered casually, and when the crowd on the street dispersed, Lin Xiu still didn\'t know where he was going. He couldn\'t help but sit in front of the steps of a shop in a daze.
"Squeak …"
The door of the shop suddenly opened and a white-haired old man walked out. He saw Lin Xiu\'s eyes were lifeless and could only sit there aimlessly. He couldn\'t help but feel a pain in his heart and hurriedly called Lin Xiu into the shop.
"Young man, what\'s wrong with you?" The old man said to Lin Xiu kindly. At the same time, he didn\'t forget to turn around, take out some food from inside, and put it in front of Lin Xiu.
And Lin Xiu, who had sealed all his strength and memory, how could he remember any details? While eating the food, he kept muttering, "I feel very good."
"It turned out to be a simple-minded person." The old man shook his head helplessly, but in his heart, he became more and more sympathetic for Lin Xiu.
After repeatedly asking for Lin Xiu\'s name but getting no response, the old man took the initiative to give this young man a new name, Liu Er.
"Since you can\'t tell me where you live and what your name is, why don\'t you follow this old man in this shop from now on? As long as I have something to eat, you won\'t go hungry." The old man put Lin Xiu\'s bowl and chopsticks on the table, then said earnestly.
This old man\'s son had died a long time ago. For so many years, in order to be able to maintain his own survival, the old man had been taking care of some small lives here. Although he was not rich, it was more than enough to support himself.
Perhaps all the old people were very envious of the happy and harmonious life of a family reunion. After living alone for so many years, seeing a young man appear in front of them, although he looked a little silly, the old people still felt happy from the bottom of their hearts.
He brought Lin Xiu to the backyard, made a simple bed for him, and told Lin Xiu to quickly rest, then left alone.
Lin Xiu was not in a hurry to sleep. Sitting on the bed, his eyes were still blank. He gently pushed the door open and looked at the quiet night sky. In his heart, he felt that he should have some mission, but no matter how he thought, he couldn\'t remember it. In the end, he could only hug his head, return to the room, and sleep soundly.
In the morning of the second day, the old man woke Lin Xiu up early, then slapped Lin Xiu on the head and said with a smile, "Liu Er, since you don\'t have a place to live, why don\'t you stay here in the future? Come, follow me to eat first, it\'s time to open."
With a lightning speed, Lin Xiu quickly washed up and followed the old man to a side hall. He sat there and buried his head in the white porridge and a plate of pickled radish in front of him.
The old man just looked at this scene quietly and didn't say anything. He didn't know how long it had been since he last ate at the same table with someone. Although this Liu Er that he picked up looked very silly, he was very fair and clean. If he could find a wife for him in the future, he would be able to enjoy the life of a grandchild.
But when he looked up at the still dark sky outside, the old man sighed helplessly. According to the rumors of the people outside, it was said that God was angry for some reason, causing the earth to fall into darkness.
If they couldn\'t make up for this mistake, then everyone could only live in this never-ending environment in the future.
Although the old man didn't dare to agree with the old man's words, he couldn't help but sigh at the current situation. Without sunlight, the crops outside the city had already started to wither, causing the prices of goods in the city to rise rapidly.
Food had gradually become the most important resource, some food vendors even began to raise the price, forcibly raising the price of rice from three copper coins a bucket to ten copper coins a bucket.
Not only that, the children of the officials, in this desperate moment, also revealed their fangs to some ordinary people. They did not hold back at all and all kinds of incidents would happen every day, such as kidnapping women and bullying the weak.
Regarding all of this, the old man had no right to ask about it and could only secretly sigh in his heart,\ 'The hearts of the people are not what they used to be.\'
Looking at the mess on the table, the old man shook his head slowly, then simply tidied it up, brought Lin Xiu to the shop in front, and opened the door.
Due to the absence of the sun, many people gradually became confused about the concept of time. At this moment, there were not many people walking on the streets. They were all hurriedly walking, occasionally lifting their eyelids to observe the situation in their surroundings before quickly leaving.
