Chapter 102: Water Depletion

Nan Wuya didn't speak in the end, and Shen Yuexi couldn't hear his own voice.

Second, he doesn't seem to have any position to stop this.

Shen Yuexi should only compete with an ordinary person for resources just to survive.

Including later...... Shen Yuexi would slaughter the entire village, presumably in order to survive in this cursed place.

Nan Wuya had a bitter and helpless feeling.

Shen Yuexi was originally kind-hearted, if she hadn't been framed, how could she have fallen into this place, let alone fight with ordinary people for some food.

Nan Wuya was blaming himself in his heart, but after seeing Shen Yuexi get the food, he turned around and walked to another place.

Nan Wuya hurriedly followed, only to find that under the trunk of a dead tree not far away, there was a woman holding a child.

The woman looked thin and emaciated, and the child in her arms was skinny and malnourished.

Shen Yuexi stepped forward and handed over the snatched food to the woman.

Nan Wuya was surprised, it turned out that Shen Yuexi was robbing those foods for this woman......

However, after hearing the conversation between the two, Nan Wuya couldn't help but feel a trace of shame on his face.

"Thank you, thank you kind girl!"

The woman took the food and knelt directly in front of Shen Yuexi.

"This is my life-saving food for my children and me, if it weren't for you, we might be ...... ...... "The woman wept very sadly.

Shen Yuexi wanted to help people up, but the other party was resolute and treated Shen Yuexi as a life-saving benefactor and refused to get up.

Shen Yuexi was very helpless, and softly rejected the credit: "I didn't do anything, I just saw him robbing your food before I made a move, it's just a convenient thing." ”

It turned out that when Nan Wuya left just now, Shen Yuexi investigated along the way and saw the residents here.

When she came over, she happened to see the middle-aged man snatching the little food left by the orphan and widow, and immediately did not hesitate to act.

This is the scene where Nan Wuya had a misunderstanding.

Knowing the truth of the matter, Nan Wuya knew that Shen Yuexi's move was an uneven move and pulled out a knife to help, not what he imagined......

Nan Wuya couldn't help but smile bitterly, it was he who had a preconceived idea.

The conversation between Shen Yuexi and the woman continued.

"Auntie, do you know what this place is? Why is it so desolate? ”

Looking around, the land is barren, there is no grass, and there is hardly a trace of greenery to be seen.

When the woman heard this, she noticed that Shen Yuexi was not dressed as a local resident, but a completely unfamiliar face, which was not the same as those of them who had been weathered.

"We are a cursed place, we have lived here for generations, we cannot leave, but because of this curse, all the rivers have dried up, and the plants cannot grow here, and now this big tree next to us, once able to shade the sky and the sun, after the curse came, it gradually withered and fell, and finally ......"

Shen Yuexi's gaze fell on the tree surrounded by seven or eight people, and there was almost only one trunk left, and she couldn't see what the woman had looked like in her description.

"What the hell is going on, and why is there a curse?"

The woman's eyes were cloudy, she shook her head, and her yellow-skinned face was full of bitterness.

She carefully fed the water that Shen Yuexi snatched back to the child, the child was still a baby, and it should have been breastfeeding, but the woman had no extra food at all, let alone breast milk.

The long-term malnutrition has left the mother and daughter looking very thin, and it may not be long before ...... They couldn't hold on.

Shen Yuexi noticed that the woman's lips were chapped and could see the red blood on them.

"Is there any water or food nearby? I'll help you find some back. Shen Yuexi couldn't bear to see the mother and daughter suffering.

The woman glanced at Shen Yuexi gratefully, and then shook her head bitterly: "The water sources within a radius of dozens of miles have all dried up. ”

Water is the source of life, and without water, there is no way to eat.

Even their usual food is nothing more than weeds that can grow tenaciously in the midst of drought.

Recently, even these weeds are running out.

The woman told Shen Yuexi that it was precisely because of this that the village, which was originally quite united, would gradually compete for food.

"The person who robbed our mother and daughter of the food just now is half a leader, benefactor, you help us get the food back, he must hold a grudge, maybe he will find someone to come back to retaliate, you better go first."

"No, if I leave, they should embarrass you, and since I've intervened in this matter, it's impossible to ignore you."

Shen Yuexi rejected the woman.

The woman was even more grateful.

"I'll send you back, where do you live?"

Following the woman's guidance, Shen Yuexi escorted them back.

Before she was halfway there, as the woman expected, the middle-aged man from before with a few accomplices blocked Shen Yuexi and the woman's way.

"I see that you didn't inquire clearly before you came, whose territory is here, hmph, dare to rob my things, thinking that you can leave so easily? Dream! ”

Shen Yuexi's eyes were sharp, and she swept over the people in front of her.

Due to the lack of food and water, they were relatively thin compared to the people outside, and they could see protruding ribs, and their faces were even more thin, which at first glance looked very terrifying, like ghosts from hell.

Several of them had knives and weapons in their hands, if Shen Yuexi's cultivation was not sealed, it would naturally be easy to deal with these people.

But now she is no different from ordinary people, she can barely win one-on-one, and she can deal with so many people at once, I'm afraid it's ......

Shen Yuexi was annoyed that she couldn't protect the mother and daughter, but since she had promised them, she must protect them thoroughly.

She didn't say much, and took the lead in catching the other party off guard.

However, the middle-aged man and his party were outnumbered, and when Shen Yuexi and the two men were fighting, the other person actually attacked from behind......

With a flash of the sword, Nan Wuya was powerless to stop it, and couldn't help but close his eyes, unable to bear to see this scene.

"Ah......h

Nan Wuya heard this scream that didn't belong to Shen Yuexi, and suddenly opened his eyes and looked over-

It was that woman who blocked the knife for Shen Yuexi at the critical moment.

The knife hit the woman's chest, blood gushed out, and the breath of life slowly dissipated.

The woman tried her best and looked at Shen Yuexi: "Ask for a benefactor...... Take care of my daughter...... She's still so young, she can't, can't just ...... like that."

Before her last words could be finished, she cut off her breath.

Shen Yuexi looked at this sudden change and felt very sad in her heart.

Why is this happening...... The person she wanted to protect, died in front of her own eyes.

The man who killed the woman looked panicked, he didn't want to kill, just now he just wanted to sneak attack from behind and subdue Shen Yuexi, who knew that a loss of strength would actually ......
