Chapter 197: A Village in the Mountains

Looking at Ma Han, Sun Zhongtian raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Thank you Doctor Ma, if it weren't for you, this disease would be like a curse, and I couldn't breathe, thank you for your kindness, I remember it in my heart, just watch it, sooner or later, I will repay you with all my might." ”

"No, you have already given me everything you promised me, not only brought me to this auction, but also auctioned me two treasures, which are even the reward for medical treatment. Ma Han shook his head.

Sun Zhongtian shook his head: "For you, maybe it's enough, but for me, those are not enough, far from enough." ”

Ma Han was noncommittal, and arched his hand: "Since your illness has been cured, then, the mountains and rivers meet, and we will have a period in the future." ”

Sun Zhongtian was stunned: "Doctor Ma is leaving at this moment? Why don't you go to my grandson's house to live temporarily for a while, my grandson's family will definitely be treated as a guest." ”

Ma Han smiled and said, "No, I still have something to do, I need to go to the south and find a medicinal herb called Dark Lotus Seed to save people." ”

Sun Zhongtian pondered, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I'm really sorry, our Sun family doesn't have this kind of rare medicinal material, this dark lotus seed is said to have no great effect, but it is extremely rare, not precious and extremely rare, this kind of herb, not to mention my Sun family, I am afraid that other families are also difficult to see." ”

Ma Han nodded: "I know, that's why I went to the south to try my luck." ”

Sun Zhongtian said: "Why don't I send the children of the Sun family to help you find it?"

Ma Han shook his head: "This kind of medicinal material can't be found by relying on a large number of people, it all depends on chance." ”

Bidding farewell to Sun Zhongtian, Ma Han headed south, first by train, then by car, then by carriage, and after four or five days, he was not far from a large mountain range.

There are mountains and jungles everywhere, the traffic is very inconvenient, and the population is not much. Starting

Along the way, Ma Han has already warmed the defensive jade pendant with spiritual power, and in terms of defense, it has at least doubled, this is still this jade pendant has not fully recovered, if it is recuperated for another month, the defense power of this jade pendant is enough to block the full force of the grandmaster-level person.

However, a single blow from the grandmaster is enough to consume the energy of this jade pendant, and if you want to use it again, you need to replenish the spiritual power again.

As for the arm armor, Ma Han didn't study anything, but he felt very close to him, so Ma Han had to take it back and keep it first, and talk about it later.

While walking slowly, while looking around, this place has been deep in the mountains, sparsely populated, Ma Han has walked for a long time, and he has not seen any villages.

After another half an hour, I finally saw that there were dozens of houses built on the mountain, these houses, in addition to the bricks and stones below, the top was made of mud, this kind of structure was very popular decades ago, but now in China, no one has used mud to build houses, after all, it is too unsafe.

When I got closer, the first house in this small village turned out to be a big yard, the yard was smooth and clean, but the house was dilapidated, with three houses in a row, and the house on the far right had a hole in the top.

At this moment, there are about twenty children playing in the yard, some of them are five or six years old, some are eight or nine years old, and some are twelve or thirteen years old.

The twelve or thirteen children were wearing clean clothes, but there were a lot of patches on them, and as for the five or six year olds, they were basically wearing some tattered pants and their upper bodies were bare-chested.

Although it is almost May Day at the moment, although the weather is not cold, it is not hot enough, and these children are more powerful, and if they are elderly, they are afraid that they will freeze and get sick.

An old man in his fifties, sitting on a chair with a blackboard next to it, and under the blackboard, there were some chalk heads.

"Alright, class. The wrinkles on the old man's face only smiled when he looked at the children, and the wrinkles seemed to have unfolded a little.

"First-graders, take your pinyin alphabet today, third-grade students, you review ...... by yourself first" As soon as the old man said this, he suddenly saw Ma Han and couldn't help but be stunned.

This is in the middle of the mountains, just from getting off the car, it takes a day to take the carriage, and then get off the carriage, and it takes several days to walk, because the traffic is inconvenient, there is not even a road that can allow the carriage and motorcycle to go, so there are no guests in this small village at all, and the people here do not go out once a year, only when they need outside materials, they will be a few people together, with some goods in the mountains, to the outside world in exchange for some necessities.

"Are you ......" the old man asked a little puzzled and a little wary.

"Oh, I'm from the expedition team, I'm separated from my teammates, and I'm lost, and I want to rest here for the night, I don't know if it's okay?" Ma Han smiled gently.

Looking at the smiling young man opposite, the old man was a little embarrassed: "Convenience is convenient, but the mountains are simple, and there is no extra room at all." ”

"It doesn't matter, it's just a night anywhere, even if you sit here. Ma Han said hurriedly.

While the two were talking, the children looked at Ma Han curiously, and the old man seemed to notice it, turned around and coughed, and the children hurriedly sat upright.

The old man looked back and smiled: "It's okay, you can stay here for one night, the whole village, this courtyard is the largest one, although it can't shelter from the wind and rain, but there is also a wall, which can block snakes, insects, rats and ants in the mountains." ”

As soon as the old man turned around, several children suddenly couldn't help but secretly look at Ma Han again, and it was no wonder that they were curious, this village may not be able to see an outsider in a year, and even these children, some of whom have never seen anyone outside the village since they were born.

Ma Han looked at the dozen children, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, some of these children were sitting on tree stumps, a few were sitting on stones, and in front of each child, there was a square wooden plank, and there was some fine sand on the wooden board, and those children wrote words and pinyin on it.

As if seeing Ma Han's gaze, the old man said ashamedly: "Laughing, in fact, there are pens, but the paper is not easy to transport back from outside, and besides, we don't have much money, so we have to wronged these children." ”

Ma Han followed the old man in, the old man clapped his palms, pointed at Ma Han and said to the children: "This is our guest, do you know?"

A little girl of twelve or thirteen years old raised her hand, stood up after getting the old man's consent, and whispered, "Teacher, what do you mean by being a guest?"

The old man's heart was sour, and he hurriedly blinked, smiled, and said, "The guest is a friend who has come to visit us. "The starters

The little girl couldn't help but smile at Ma Han and said, "Brother, you are the first friend I have seen who is not from our village." ”
