"Grandfather, do you have any ideas?" Gong Luo asked with concern.
The old man shook his head and sighed softly. "A person's body is like a bucket. The amount of water inside can be more or less. When the water is full, a person has already reached their peak. No matter how hard they train, it will be difficult for them to improve even an inch. And no matter how a person uses the water in the bucket, even if the bucket is turned upside down, there will still be water droplets on the bottom and sides of the bucket. It is impossible to be completely free of water. Young man … your water has already dried up, so your bucket has also broken. Although you miraculously survived, no matter how much water is poured in, it will never be able to fill up again. There will only be a little bit of water on the bottom and sides of the bucket. Do you understand what I mean? "
Ye Wuchen nodded. How could he not understand the condition of his body?
"Grandfather, is there really no other way?" Gong Luo said dispiritedly when he heard his grandfather say these words without much consideration.
"Young man, it seems that you are also a pitiful person who was forced to come down here. To be able to let your strength dry up to this extent, you must have an astonishing determination. It is the will of the heavens that you are able to come here. In the future, you can stay here in peace. The only thing I can do is to help you nurse your body to the best of my ability and see if there is any chance. "The old man patted Ye Wuchen's shoulder and comforted him. Seeing that Ye Wuchen's face did not show any disappointment or sadness, but instead still had a light smile, he nodded to himself. He thought to himself that this person must have been an extraordinary person in that world. To be able to come here and not die, he was even more extraordinary.
"Old grandpa …" Ning Xue shouted. Suddenly, she lowered her body and knelt down, "I beg you to save my brother. My brother is like this because of me. I beg you … I beg old grandpa to save him, okay? I will definitely repay you …"
Noticing her movements, Ye Wuchen anxiously wanted to pull her back, but his body was too weak at the moment and he didn't have the strength to pull her back. However, when Ningxue was halfway to her knees, a soft force held her back and stopped her from kneeling. Her voice was trembling as she sobbed, and it seeped into everyone's heart, causing them to feel a wave of pity and bitterness. Only by using one's truest and most sincere voice could one touch another's heart.
The old man said, "Little girl, don't worry too much. Nothing in this world is absolute. Although this is the first time I've encountered such a situation with your brother, it doesn't mean that there's no way to recover. Come, come, get up. "
As soon as the old man's Qi fluctuated, Ningxue, who had already knelt down, involuntarily stood up under a gentle but strong force. This was the second time she knelt. The first time was also for Ye Wuchen. She knelt in front of her godgrandfather Long Zheng and begged him to save her brother.
"Thank you, grandpa." Ningxue said softly.
Ye Wuchen held Ningxue in his arms and said softly, "Cher, remember not to kneel to anyone in the future, okay? Believe in your brother, your brother won't collapse like this. For my Cher … for the sake that no one in this world has the right to make Cher kneel to me, I will get better … I will get better. "
His voice came from the depths of his heart, and it affected everyone present. This was a young man who was so weak that he could be blown away by a slight gust of wind. However, no one felt that he was arrogant or disgusted when he said these words softly. Some people began to guess what kind of person he was, and what kind of role he played in the mysterious outside world.
He was very weak, but his clothes, appearance, speech and mannerisms, as well as his natural temperament, were incomparable to everyone here. From Ye Wuchen, they began to feel something called nobility.
"Brother … Yes! I believe that you will get better. Because there's nothing that you can't do. " Ningxue smiled through her tears. The smile on her somewhat frightening face made people feel the confidence and joy that came from the bottom of the girl's heart, and their mood also became happy.
The old man looked at Ye Wuchen a few more times, and said, "Young man, I'll go and see if there's any way to help you. Everyone here will be your family in the future. If you need anything in the future, don't be shy with them. Hehe, get to know them better. "
After saying that, the old man turned around and left. The crowd automatically separated to make way for him.
As soon as the old man left, the crowd swarmed around him, and all of them began to ask with concern.
"Come, young man, this is a 'Sweet Dew Pill' passed down from my ancestors. When my son was seriously ill, I couldn't bear to give it to him. Young man, take it quickly. Maybe it'll help your body. " A big man with a face full of black beard took out a dirty pill from his bosom and stuffed it into Ye Wuchen's hand.
"Quick, quick, young man, take it quickly. This is a ten thousand year old blood ginseng that I just got from home. I heard that it can even revive the dead, so it should be quite useful. "An auntie said with a smile.
"I heard that you fell from above. Are you hurt anywhere? This is the Red Jade Reconnection Glue passed down from your ancestors. It will definitely help you recover immediately. "
"Young man, rest assured and take good care of your body. No one here will bully you. If you want to go somewhere, just tell me, Da Hu. I, Da Hu, have plenty of strength. "A man with a stocky back and a bear's waist shook his body and said with a silly smile.
"Alright, don't quarrel. Don't be afraid of scaring people." Aunt Chun shouted loudly. Then, she lowered her head and said with a smile, "Young man, you must be tired after walking so far. From now on, sleep in the house next to my family's San Donkey. That house has always been empty. "
A young man who didn't manage to squeeze into the crowd nodded his head with a silly smile. He should be the San Donkey that Aunt Chun was talking about.
"Aiya." Another middle-aged woman interrupted her and said, "Mother of San Donkey, I don't want to criticize you, but this young man is a distinguished guest from afar. Your house's empty house is so dirty. Young man, go live in my house. My family's Da Chun Hua just got married and slept with Big Bear's Er Gou. That room just happens to be empty. "
"Look at what you're saying. How can you let someone live in a house that was once lived in by a lady's family. Young man, go live at my house. My house is big and clean. The land is good. My family's eldest son has always wanted a companion … "
On Ningxue's side, there were also people who were concerned. A little girl who was only five or six years old and wore coarse clothes like a porcelain doll took out two very coarse candies and placed them in front of Ningxue. She comforted her with a childish voice, "Big sister, don't be sad. There won't be bad people here. Look, this is the candies my mother made for me. I've always been reluctant to eat them. If you eat them, you won't be sad anymore, okay? "
"Big sister, did the bruises on your face get caused by bad people? If bad people come, we'll ask Daddy to beat them up. "
… …
… …
Too much concern was like a warm tide, making Ye Wuchen so touched that he was speechless. He never knew that there could really be such a paradise in this world.
It was the first time they met, but they didn't have any hostility, rejection, or evil intentions. Instead, after knowing about his body's condition, they didn't hold back and reached out to help him. They even took out rare and precious elixirs that even they themselves were reluctant to use. Their concern came from the bottom of their hearts. There was nothing fake about it. From the perspective of the world he came from, they were very stupid. They were really very stupid. But if everyone in the world were so stupid, how perfect would the world be?
This would be a pure world. There was no sin, selfishness, jealousy, ridicule, hunger, war, filth, or intrigue. Such a world should be what everyone longed for, but no one believed that it existed. But now, it really existed in front of them.
Each of their names was more vulgar than the other, but they sounded so familiar and comfortable to the ears. In this world without fame and fortune, a name was just a code. It didn't matter if it sounded good or not. People would only remember the name and its owner. They wouldn't care about its vulgarity, and they wouldn't ridicule it.
Something called being touched flowed in his heart. He slowly looked at every face in front of him. He smiled and said the only words he could say, "Thank you all …"
Maybe to them, this was just their most normal action, and it was what they should do. But to Ye Wuchen, who had experienced too many ups and downs in his life, this was a warmth and touching that he had never felt before. He couldn't put these words in his heart.
"Haha, don't quarrel, don't quarrel." The old man came back and separated the crowd. He glanced at them and said with a bitter smile, "You guys, his body is very weak now. These great spiritual medicines and healing medicines that you have hidden for so many years can't help him. Instead, they will make his body unable to bear it, and his virtual fire will rise. Take them back. "
Only then did everyone disappointedly take back the various spiritual medicines they had brought from home. Their faces showed a faint shame for not being able to help. Under Ye Wuchen's gaze, he found that all the things they took out were rare treasures in the world. Every one of them was so precious that it couldn't be measured by money. He couldn't help but guess what kind of people fell into this place a hundred years ago.
"Okay, everyone can go back to work. I know everyone must want to hear his story and listen to him talk about the outside world. Haha, this old man also wants to hear it. But he has just walked such a long way, and now his body is too weak. It's more important to rest, and we'll talk about it at night. Third Baby, help him to your room. I'll ask Erya to boil some medicine for him and see if it will work. "
"Okay!" Gong Luo hurriedly responded and helped Ye Wuchen up. "Everyone, make way. If there's anything, we'll have fun together tonight. Come, little brother and little sister, let's go in first. "
Everyone immediately took the initiative to make a path, and watched as Gong Luo helped Ye Wuchen leave. Indeed, they really wanted to hear what the outside world was like, and they also wanted to hear his story.
