Chapter 40 Treat people with sincerity and unforgettable, there are only gold diggers in the world
It is said that Witt and his party of four went around the forest for a long time, but there was no trace of refugees, which greatly dampened Witt's interest before departure. Witt had thought of a long list of words to convince the refugees before he set out, but now he was a little disappointed that they were of no use. As the sun began to set, Witt saw that it was getting dark, and wanted to leave the forest before it got dark, lest he encounter any beasts that would lose more than he would lose.
Just as everyone was about to leave, they suddenly heard a heart-rending scream in the distance, which resounded through the empty forest, and made people's fur stand up unconsciously. Witt's first reaction when he heard the scream was to rush in the direction of the sound source, and Rum and the others followed closely after him, for fear that Witt would fall into the enemy's trap and he would not escape responsibility.
Soon, the group found the source of the sound somewhere in the forest thirty meters away. A black-skinned wild boar about one and a half meters long and about one meter high was smashing around in the crowd, and there was a young man lying on the ground, his hands covering his abdomen, but he couldn't stop the blood gushing out wildly.
The group of people dressed in similar clothes, all dressed in coarse cloth, armed with dung forks or kitchen knives and sticks, all of them were unmistakable, presumably refugees in Banderni's mouth. The group of refugees must have wanted to hunt the boar, but they were chased by the boar, or they may have invaded the boar's territory, and the boar attacked the boar because of its hostile intentions. No matter what, since Witt bumped into him, he must not be able to see death without help, let alone sell his favors along the river.
Witt immediately took off his oak bow from his back and drew a sharp barbed arrow. The wild boar has rough skin and thick meat, and there are no barbed arrows, and it is estimated that the effect is not obvious. The group of refugees was in dire straits, unaware of Witt's arrival in the jungle. When the boar had sprinted to disperse the refugees and then stopped and turned around to collide again, Witt seized the opportunity and shot the head of the fat boar with a quick arrow. The boar only made a muffled sound, and before it could even scream, it fell to the ground.
The group of refugees were also shocked by this sudden arrow, and looked around for a week before realizing the existence of the stranger Witt. When the refugees saw that Witt and his party were dressed as robbers, armed with sharp swords and axes, and armed with illegal weapons and bows and arrows, they were immediately a little frightened, and they all retreated as far away from Witt as possible.
Seeing this, Witt immediately shouted: "Don't panic, everyone! I came to the rescue when I passed by here, and I didn't mean to hurt you! ”
Although Witt's tone was sincere and did not show malice, since ancient times, peasants were afraid of bandits and robbers, and this kind of thinking has been deeply engraved in their minds, how can they be gullible because of Witt's words. Soon, there were only three or five refugees left, one of whom was still lying on the ground injured and difficult to escape, and the few around him should be his relatives or acquaintances, and he couldn't bear to stay where he was left alone to escape in the barren mountains and mountains.
Witt was a little disappointed, but he mustered up the courage to continue: "Don't be afraid, we have no ill will. Witt told Rum and the others to put away their one-handed swords, and his oak bow was already on his back. Witt quickly ran to the injured young man, and when he saw that his abdomen was bleeding profusely, he immediately said to everyone: "He is seriously injured, if you don't stop the bleeding quickly, you will lose too much blood and die!" Do any of you want to stop his bleeding with a cloth? ”
As soon as the words fell, a middle-aged man who was nearly fifty years old immediately choked up and said with a crying voice: "I'm coming!" I got it! He is my son, please save him! Wei nodded and immediately took the middle-aged man's coarse cloth clothes, tore them along the seams into a piece of cloth that could be spread, and folded them into a slightly wider strip of cloth, which was tightly wrapped around the waist along the abdomen of the injured young man, slowing down the rate of blood loss as much as possible.
After everything was ready, Witt immediately said: "He is very dangerous now, the cloth can only slow down the rate of blood loss, but not stop the bleeding, so he has to be sent to Shuangfeng Village to settle down quickly." ”
"Twin Peaks?" As soon as Witt exited, he was taken aback by the refugees around him. Shuangfeng Village is a famous bandit nest in the surrounding area, and the surrounding villagers are very afraid of it, and if they do not come in groups, the villagers would not have fled here to take refuge.
Witt immediately realized that the refugees had misunderstood him, and immediately explained: "Don't be careful, everyone, I am the owner of Shuangfeng Village, and I have no ill will towards everyone, this injured young man is now in urgent need of rest and treatment, if he sleeps in the wind tonight, he will die of illness tomorrow!" Everyone has nowhere to go, so why not go to the village to rest first and then make plans. Witt did not wait for an answer, but motioned for Rum to carry the wounded young man towards the Twin Peaks, while Starsavin and his wife were responsible for carrying the two hundred pounds of wild boar back to the village, and arrived at the cottage as soon as possible before dark.
When the father saw that his son was carried away by Rum, and that the group did not seem to have malicious intent, he no longer stopped him, but followed Witt and his party to Twin Peaks. The other refugees also looked at each other, the sun went down making the forest more and more cold, not to mention the belly still "growling", Witt also carried a large wild boar away, all swallowed saliva, and unconsciously walked towards the direction of Shuangfeng Village.
By the time everyone arrived at the cottage, it was already completely dark, and only the roar of the beasts in the forest could be heard. Witt placed the injured youth on a grass bed in the main village, covered them with a quilt made of coarse cloth, and lit a fire to warm them. There was no ointment to stop the bleeding in the stockade, and it was destroyed in the fire. Witt didn't understand the herbs and was anxious.
Suddenly, Jena took Vitra aside and whispered, "Sir, there are a few hemostatic herbs in the weedy pile over there, and I have seen the physician polish that herb into a paste to stop bleeding when I was in Fested. ”
Witt was overjoyed and immediately motioned to Bandeni to take care of Jena's child first, which could keep Bandeni, who had no experience in baby care, busy. Witt personally accompanied Jena with torches to the weeds in the front village to search for hemostatic herbs, polished them into paste, and applied them to the abdomen of the injured young man. Sure enough, the ointment took effect in less than a quarter of an hour, and the blood on the wound slowly stopped, and did not gush out even if it was not wrapped in a coarse cloth. When Jena saw that the ointment worked, she brought a relatively clean cloth and wrapped the wound on her abdomen.
After the wound was treated, it was already past the unitary hour, and everyone was already hungry and their stomachs were numb, so they remembered that dinner was the first time, and they immediately slaughtered about 200 catties of wild boars to entertain the brothers and those refugees. The fragrant wild boar meat was immediately hung on several fires, making everyone salivate, hoping that the pork would be cooked quickly.
When everyone was eating meat and rejoicing, I saw the old father of the injured young man suddenly walk up to Witt, kneel on the ground, and thank him with tears: "Thank you very much today for saving my son's life. From tonight onwards, my life will be yours, and as long as I do what I do, you can say it, I will definitely do it. ”
Witt was also stunned by the old father's kneeling, and then immediately helped him up, and said: "You don't have to be polite, you don't have to be polite, you can see that the road is uneven and draw a knife to help, whether your son can get out of danger depends on the creation, you can rest here for a while!" ”
Witt sat the old father aside, and then said to the other refugees: "I have no ill will towards you, and I believe that everyone knows that as the owner of Shuangfeng Village, I want to help you from the bottom of my heart. There are enough houses in Shuangfeng Village for you to live in, and there is also enough wild land outside the village for cultivation, as long as you want, I always welcome you to come to Shuangfeng Village. ”
As soon as the words fell, the old father just now immediately took the lead in expressing his willingness to stay in Shuangfeng Village. He was accompanied by three other refugees, all farmers, who looked at each other, and after a whispered discussion, they all expressed their willingness to stay, recognizing Witt as the owner of the village, and promised Witt that he would return to the woods to find companions, and persuaded them to come to Witt together.
When Witt heard this, how could he be unhappy, and motioned for them to stay tonight to rest and rest, eat and drink enough, and it was not too late to set off tomorrow. The main village was jubilant that night, and it was not until late at night that Witt placed the refugees in the vacant, barely habitable houses of the former village, and then hurriedly fell asleep in the main village. There was nothing to do that night, and the night was together.
Although virtue repays grievances, what is retribution, when is the time to repay grievances. Treat people with sincerity and unforgettable, how can there be only gold diggers in the world?
