Chapter 143: The Rich

Feeling her body being picked up, the little girl opened her eyelids weakly, and found that it was Ning Qiu, she struggled to lift the water bag in her arms hard: "Drink...... Drink ......"

Ning Qiu took the water bag, and the weight in it barely changed after he left.

This means that the little girl is waiting for him to come back with thirst......

He was silent, opened the cork, and poured the water into the little girl's mouth, not caring if more water overflowed and scattered on the ground......

The sudden water moisturized the little girl's chapped lips.

She woke up from the nightmare, and reached out in horror to hold the water bag to stop the loss of water: "Water, water, water fell ......"

Look at her panicked look.

Ning Qiu smiled lightly: "Don't worry, it's not hot now, we won't be short of water......"

He still had the last five pieces of rune paper in his pocket, which would save a little and collect a lot of moisture from the air, enough for them to get out of this arid area. When the little girl heard him say that it was no longer hot, she reacted, and the temperature that was about to roast the dead at that moment had dropped somehow......

She cried as she held the water bag.

I think I think of my loved ones who died of drought.

Ning Qiu shook his head slightly, although he had snuffed out the source of the drought, he had also absorbed the residual heat!

However, the crops and plants that have died due to drought and those water sources cannot be restored in a short period of time, and those refugees who lack water and food will not survive, and the damned ones will die after all......

He wiped the tears on the little girl's face: "Why did you faint and don't drink water......"

The little girl lowered her head and said weakly: "I drank it, you don't have to drink it...... I...... I don't want you to die......"

Oh......

She didn't want him dead......

He smiled faintly: "I won't die, and you try not to die......"

After drinking the water, the little girl regained some energy.

In a few days of getting along, she was still a little afraid of life, and she didn't dare to let Ning Qiu hold her, so she hurriedly came down, picked up a branch as a crutch and supported her body and followed behind......

In this way, a large figure and a small figure pulled out a long shadow on the Gobi and headed towards the south.

……

……

Qingping Town, the streets are very lively......

On the path outside, an ox cart drove unhurriedly, the driver was an old man over half a hundred years old, the car behind him was covered with a large amount of hay, and on the hay sat two dirty people, it was Ning Qiu and the little girl. When he arrived at the most lively area, the old man turned his head: "This is Qingping Town......

Ning Qiu jumped out of the car and caught the little girl.

Then he took out a handful of copper coins from his arms and put them in the old man's hand: "Thank you for your help, this is a reward!" ”

The old man was startled by the copper coins in his hand, and he hurriedly said: "I can't help it, although I like money, but I can't take advantage of you, I said to take you for a ride, I didn't say I want money...... "Just kidding, a copper coin can buy a big meat bun, and there are sixty or seventy of these pieces, which is a "heavy money" for his economic conditions......

Ning Qiu smiled: "Take it, boss, you deserve so much!" ”

After speaking, he took the little girl's hand and walked away, leaving the old man with a confused face in a daze, knowing that a cart of hay behind him could not be sold for a few dollars......

Ning Qiu had a lot of money on him, and he had a lot of sleeve pockets in his arms.

They came all the way from the border, and they met countless people on the way, and some refugees saw that they had water on them, so they paid for it, and in arid places, ordinary people could not buy anything even if they had money! On the contrary, there are a lot of barters......

So I made a little money for the refugees......

Countless refugees have died on the ground, and some of the money comes from these corpses......

Later, as we gradually got out of the arid areas, there were fewer refugees, but there were more robbers blocking the way, and the last money came from these robbers......

In this way, Ning Qiu had more and more copper coins on his body, and there were even a lot of broken silver!

Even the little girl's clothes bag contained a lot of copper coins, and she walked with a ringing ......

Ning Qiu took the little girl and walked around, they were far away from the arid region, the people here were not affected in the slightest, the pace of life was very slow, and they lived a very leisurely life......

His eyes lit up slightly, and he led the little girl to a restaurant, and was about to enter.

Unexpectedly, a guy with a towel on his shoulder walked over quickly, stretched out his hand to stop the two, and said coldly: "I'm sorry for the two, this restaurant prohibits idle people from entering...... Especially beggar refugees...... If you want to eat, go to the back door, maybe you have leftovers for you......"

The little girl was a little panicked, she had never left the village and had never eaten outside.

Roadside stalls are also "high-end places" these days.

......

Now that she wants to come to this kind of "terrifying high-end place" to eat, it really makes her feel a little panicked...... Although I was looking forward to what it was like inside, what the food would look like......

Ning Qiu was not unhappy because of his partner's attitude, on the contrary, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what his guy was doing.

In the face of two ragged people, I am afraid that such people will be excluded from entering anywhere......

He smiled and grabbed a handful of copper coins and stuffed them over: "This little brother misunderstood, we are not beggars and refugees, but unfortunately we have strayed into the mountains for many days, full of hungry meals, and tortured like this, fortunately, we were able to leave with the help of noble people!" And we won't eat white meals......"

The guy felt the heavy copper money in his hand, although there were also rich businessmen passing by on weekdays, and he gave some reward money when he ate in the restaurant, but he never thought that there were so many today. He hesitated for a moment, and the two in front of him, one big and one small, really didn't look like some villains, so he whispered: "It's just that the clothes of the two are really ...... I'm afraid that if the shopkeeper sees it, he will give me a beating......"

For so many days, Ning Qiu and the little girl had become accustomed to it, and now they had re-entered the civilized world.

Suddenly I got used to it......

He smiled: "That's right, it's just that I'm hungry now, and I have to finish eating to change my clothes, so I don't have to be embarrassed, just find us an inconspicuous corner in the restaurant, but the food can't be sloppy......

The guy held the copper coin in his hand, and he was really reluctant to give it up.

But this person is so rich, even if the shopkeeper finds out later, it should be fine......

He thought for a moment: "That's ...... In this way, as long as the guest officer doesn't mind, there are very few guests on the third floor on weekdays, I can open a corner private room for the two of you, but wait for the two to take the small ladder upstairs, I'm really sorry......"

The border ghost places have survived, do you still care about this?

With the little girl, Ning Qiu didn't want to do much, nodded and said, "Okay, lead the way." ”

Seeing that Ning Qiu was so easy to speak, the guy led the way, led them around to the back of the restaurant, opened a small door, and sure enough, there was a small ladder leading upstairs......
