The man standing right at the front of the group had a handsome face, his demeanor elegant and refined. His face was filled with a gentle smile as he looked at the group of refugees who had gathered around them.
"Mm." The man nodded his head slightly to his followers at the side.
The attendants all held wooden boxes in their hands. After receiving the man's signal, the attendants immediately opened the wooden boxes. The boxes were filled with snow-white steamed buns. The steamed buns were still steaming, and they looked very delicious.
The refugees on both sides immediately stirred up a commotion when they saw the big white steamed buns. They had been temporarily arranged to stay here and although they did not need to worry about attacks from the Poison Men, their lives here were not all that great. Just the problem of feeding them everyday was enough to give them a headache. Although the Clear Breeze City would send them some cornbread every day, but the amount was not that much.
Everyone would at most get two pieces of cornbread a day and with that half a palm sized piece of cornbread, to support their entire day's worth of food, would be a rather difficult task. Just relying on the food distributed to them from the Clear Breeze City was already causing quite a number of them to go hungry.
Having been in a situation where they had not been able to eat their fill for the past few days, when they suddenly saw people bringing so much food here, the refugees would naturally not be able to remain calm.
They wished for nothing more than to immediately leap forward and snatch those buns into their hands, but they had no choice but to hold themselves back as they stared expectantly at the brightly dressed "kind-hearted people".
The followers quickly distributed the buns into the hands of the surrounding refugees, one for each person. Although it was not a lot, but it was more filling than the dry and hard cornbread.
The refugees who received the buns quickly thanked the handsome looking man at the front, all of them deeply grateful.
The man nodded and smiled at the elderly, the weak, the women and the children, his smile as gentle as the spring breeze.
Besides the buns, the food boxes also contained some simple snacks which were delivered into the hands of the children. The snacks were not exquisite but to the children who had been forced to live a miserable life, it was already a rare treat. The children's innocent and bright laughter quickly reverberated throughout the refugee camp.
"How have you been these days?" The man in the lead asked with a smile as he looked at the two hundred refugees around him.
"It's already very rare for us to be able to enter the city. How can we dare to say whether it's good or not? We are old, and it's good enough that we have food to eat. It's just that those pitiful children are still so young …" Some old women couldn't help but feel a little sad. They were old and not far from death. On the other hand, their grandchildren entered the city with them. Because they had been rushing all the way, many children fell sick on the way.
Now that they had come to the Clear Breeze City, because of their lack of money, they were really unable to treat those children.
The man looked at the sickly children and narrowed his eyes slightly. An unusually sinister look flashed across his eyes. It was so fast that no one had the chance to catch it. Then, it was replaced by a gentle smile.
"These little fellows seem to be sick?" the man asked worriedly.
Several of the women who were carrying the young children secretly wiped at their tears.
"That's right. These children are still very young and their bodies are frail. Having gone through so much shock, I'm afraid that some evil spirit has entered their bodies ….." The old woman was also feeling rather sorry for them as she looked at the "great benefactor" before her.
The man seemed to have noticed the old woman's thoughts and he opened his mouth to say: "I have some medicine here. It's not really anything good, but it might be of some help to the children's illnesses." As he spoke, he got his attendant to bring out a bag of elixirs to hand over to the old woman's hand.
"Old lady, mix these elixirs with water and give them to the children. They should feel a little better." The man said with a smile.
The old woman thanked him profusely. She had not held much hope but she had not thought that the man would really respond to her.
