Chapter 43 Relief Food

I saw a white-haired old man of the Xia tribe living with a cane walking slowly towards this side, and the surrounding crowd automatically made way for him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

It can be seen that this old man has a very high status among the Xia people, and even the village chief of the Xia tribe has a respectful face.

"Elder, why are you here too?" asked the village chief respectfully, and in his impression that their majestic and wise elder almost never went out.

The old man rolled his eyes and shouted angrily: "Why am I here? You still have the face to ask me why I came! If I don't come again, I'm afraid that General Hypatia will be neglected by you! What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and prepare some tea and wash the dust for the general!"

"Oh~" The crowd around them reacted, just now they were patronizing the excitement and forgot about this stubble, they only then noticed Hypatia's muddy robe and long wet hair, people suddenly felt ashamed, and hurriedly ran to prepare.

It's just that Hypatia is bathed in a little starlight, and the sludge on her body can't tarnish her beauty in the slightest, but reflects her as holy and noble

"Alas~" The old man shook his head and sighed, pointed to the village chief and said, "Xiao Liu, I didn't say you, how did you become the village chief? General Hypatia has a life-saving grace for all of us, and this is how you entertain our most honored guests? You young people must know some basic etiquette, and as the village chief, you should play an exemplary role......" The old man sighed in disappointment, and stomped on the crutches in his hand with hatred.

"Yes...... Be...... Elder, I will definitely correct it in the future, I will definitely correct it!" the Xia village chief nodded repeatedly, and then quickly took a few young people to the side to get busy.

As soon as Hypatia opened her mouth to say something, she was led into the house surrounded by a large group of Xia girls.

Most of the Xia people lost their homes in the flood and are now living in makeshift tents, and the house used to entertain Hypatia is almost the only one that has been preserved intact.

The fragrance of tea in the house was overflowing, and a Xia girl respectfully served the tea.

Hypatia is a tea lover, and she has a large collection of tea leaves in her study, while she is greedily breathing in the fragrance of tea in the house.

I took a sip lightly, and suddenly felt refreshing and indescribable. Legend has it that in ancient times, the tea of the Xia nationality was famous all over the world, almost more precious than gold, but since the fall of the Xia nationality, the tea ceremony skills have gradually been lost, but in this place she has tasted the rare and high-quality tea.

After the group of girls dispersed, the elder of the Xia clan walked in with a cane, although the old man had inconvenient legs and feet, but he was in good spirits, and saw him walk up to Hypatia with an excited face, and make a gesture to worship.

Hypatia hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, "Old man, what are you doing here, I can't stand you like this......"

"We can bear it, we can bear it! The great kindness of the general, we will always remember. The elder nodded again and again, "It's really not easy, the general must be tired when he came here so late, why don't you rest for a while, and then let's talk about business." ā€

The elders of the Xia clan respectfully withdrew from the room, and then, several girls worked together to move in a large bathtub, and brought a few buckets of water to fill the bathtub.

Hipatia was very tidy, and when everyone was out, she couldn't wait to jump into the water.

The warm water slid down on her creamy skin, washing away the dirt from her body and taking away the fatigue of the day.

In the middle of the night, Hypatia slowly walked out of the cabin, washed away from the mud and she was as beautiful as a hibiscus in clear water, her hair was still a little wet, and the water droplets dripped down her hair to the ground.

When she walked around, she found that many people were still asleep, and that the tent where the village chief and the elders were still lit by candlelight, and many people were talking around them with candles, as if discussing their plans for the future.

Hypatia walked softly, she had no shoes on, her little white and smooth feet did not make a sound on the ground, and when she came by, no one noticed her coming.

Everyone in the tent had sad faces, the elderly Xia clan elder frowned and said nothing, and the village chief supported his forehead with his right hand, looking very depressed.

Although they survived, their homes were destroyed, the village was running out of food, and within three days, a famine could break out here.

"That's it......" the elder sighed, breaking the silence first, "Amin, you can take all the shares that have been given to us old fellows, take them all, and distribute them to the young children in the village." The old man Gu Jing Wubo, glanced at the people around him lightly, "The first few **** also picked two boxes of wild vegetables, I hope you can last a few more days......"

"No, Elder!" the village chief slapped his hands on the table and objected urgently: "You have guided us and made great contributions to the village, even if you starve to death, I will not agree!"

"Yes, Elder, we don't agree either!" the people around him echoed.

"What kind of stupid words, children......" The old man smiled faintly, "We old things are all people who are about to enter the ground, but we will die a few days early, you young babies, you are the hope of the village, but you have to live well......" With that, he slowly opened a burden on his back and took out a few hard flatbreads.

Soon, a few more withered hands reached out, and the flatbread made of coarse grains soon filled the table.

Looking at the table full of flatbread, everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva, but then lowered their heads and wept secretly.

In order for them to live, all the old people in the village are ready to sacrifice.

"Don't do this, I almost forgot to tell you, I brought some food with me when I came, hoping to help you. When everyone was in deep grief, a pleasant voice like heaven suddenly remembered, and people were startled and hurriedly looked up......

"General Hypatia!" exclaimed the crowd, and the elf they loved appeared beside them at some point, her eyes as clear as a spring, her smile as soft as the moonlight, her words echoing in people's hearts for a long time, and even the air was filled with her fragrance like a lotus.

Hypatia stepped out of the tent and stretched out her right hand, which was carved like white jade and reflected a charming glow in the moonlight.

She was in a hurry when she came, but she didn't forget to prepare enough food for these Xia victims.

Seeing the mountain of food, everyone was stunned, they were just worried about the food, and General Hypatia had just helped them solve this biggest problem.

"I don't know if it's enough, if it's not enough, I'll think of a way. Seeing that everyone didn't speak, just staring at the pile of grain, Hypatia felt a little uncertain.

Only then did everyone react, and then thunderous cheers broke out, and the Xia clan elder came to his senses for a long time, and said excitedly with a cane: "Thank you so much...... General Hypatia...... This batch of food is completely sufficient!"

The joy that fell from heaven also woke many people from their sleep, and they rushed from all over the place in ecstasy to carry the sacks of life-saving food back to their homes.

Another sleepless night.

The bright moon hung high, and Hypatia supported the respected Xia elder to stroll along the path between the villages.

"General Hypatia, you don't have to worry about the food problem, although we Xia people don't have any skills, we are still very good at farming. He grabbed a handful of grain from the door of a tent, "We can keep a batch of this grain you have sent as a grain seed, so please rest assured that we will be able to harvest more grain next autumn." ā€

"Well, that's good!" Hypatia nodded approvingly, although the Xia people were not talented in magic and martial arts, their diligence was obvious to all.

"I don't know what difficulties you have in living in this Bekaa Valley?" Hipatia asked with a low head, although these Xia people were safe, they could only live a life of almost exile in this desolate place, and she still felt a little sorry in her heart.

"Oh, that's nothing. Although this Bekaa Valley is desolate, the soil is very fertile, since you have cleared the demonic beasts entrenched here, most of the Bekaa Valley can be cultivated into fertile land!" The old man's eyes flashed with hope and excitement.
