Chapter 272: Jishitang

Shen Yueyue became like this, so naturally she couldn't hurry anymore.

In the end, Ning Xiaotang had no choice but to hold Shen Yueyue in one hand and Shen Ning'er in the other, and move forward with light skills.

After about an hour of travel, the village finally appeared in front of him.

Ning Xiaotang didn't know when Shen Yueyue would wake up, and it was not a long-term solution to keep carrying it like this.

So, he planned to go into the village and have a look, and if there was a carriage or something, it would be the best.

And just when Ning Xiaotang and the others had just entered the village, Shen Yueyue suddenly woke up again without warning.

"Yueyue, you're finally awake! You're scared to death my sister!" Shen Ning'er was surprised and gave her younger brother a big hug.

Shen Yueyue said blankly: "I...... Did something happen to me?"

Shen Ning'er said with a frightened face: "Of course something happened to you!

Ning Xiaotang stretched out his hand, put it on Shen Yueyue's wrist, and re-examined his body.

As the True Qi probed into Shen Yueyue's body, Ning Xiaotang was surprised to find that the Void World Energy that had broken free and ran to Shen Yueyue's mind had already shifted its position at this time and moved to the center of Shen Yueyue's eyebrows.

Could it be that it was because the Void World Energy had shifted its position that Yue Yue had woken up? Ning Xiaotang thought to himself in his heart.

Immediately after, Ning Xiaotang asked, "Yueyue, how are you feeling now?"

Shen Yueyue scratched her head and said, "It doesn't seem to be, I think it's good." ”

Shen Ning'er said: "Yueyue, if you feel it carefully, is it really okay? You really scared me just now!"

Shen Yueyue said: "Sister, you don't have to worry. Just now, I felt as if I had slept and was fine. ”

Next, Ning Xiaotang asked Shen Yueyue about some more information.

In the end, it was finally determined that Shen Yueyue was indeed fine.

It's just that this state of sobriety is probably temporary.

Because the two entangled forces in Shen Yueyue's body have not been eliminated, they still exist.

Even the Void World Energy that ran to Shen Yueyue's mind was just a move of place.

So, Ning Xiaotang finally found a carriage in the village and bought it.

After leaving the village, Ning Xiaotang and Gongsun Xu finally said goodbye to each other and parted ways.

The carriage rolled along, and the three of Ning Xiaotang went all the way north.

In the days that followed, as Ning Xiaotang expected, Shen Yueyue would lose consciousness for more than an hour every day.

Moreover, Ning Xiaotang also found that the time for Shen Yueyue to lose consciousness every day was constantly extended.

Although the extension time is not much. If it weren't for Ning Xiaotang's carefulness, he wouldn't even have discovered this problem.

But over time, the time for Shen Yueyue to lose consciousness will eventually become longer and longer, until the last day and twelve hours, and she is completely unconscious.

At that time, Shen Yueyue will be no different from death.

Ten days later, Ning Xiaotang and the three of them came to the riverside. Then he rented a boat and went to Shuzhou by water.

After entering Shuzhou, they switched to the land route again.

On this day, Ning Xiaotang and the three of them came to Lecheng. This is only a few dozen miles away from the destination of their trip, Yunmen Temple.

Lecheng is the second largest city in Shuzhou, with a population of about 300,000, second only to Shuzhou City.

The city is full of shops and people come and go.

Ning Xiaotang and the three of them walked on the street, preparing to find an inn, rest for the night, and then go to Yunmen Temple on the second day.

Along the way, what made Ning Xiaotang and the three of them feel strange was that on the side of the bustling street, from time to time, there were three or two homeless people gathering together to beg.

"Why are there so many beggars in this Lecheng?" Shen Yueyue couldn't help but ask curiously.

Not far away, at the mouth of the alley, there were more than a dozen homeless people, including five or six children, some in their teens and some under the age of ten. Everyone's clothes were tattered, dirty, skinny, and malnourished.

"They're so pathetic. Shen Yueyue said again.

Ning Xiaotang and Shen Ning'er both frowned slightly.

At this moment, suddenly a few men in blue walked to the edge of the alley.

One of them struck the gong and shouted, "Come, come, come!" Jishitang recruits homeless and lonely children, as long as they are under the age of thirteen, Jishitang recruits. ”

The homeless people all looked at the blue-clothed men numbly and blankly.

One of the blue-clothed men continued: "I'm afraid you don't know about Jishitang yet, right? Let me tell you, Jishitang was opened by Wan Antong, the richest man in Shuzhou. Thousands of people have always been kind and charitable, and in our Lecheng, this is well known and well-known. ”

"Wan Yuanwai opened this Jishitang specifically to raise and help those helpless and orphaned children. As long as you are under the age of thirteen, you can enter the Jishitang. ”

I saw that the man in blue kept promoting the benefits of Jishitang to those displaced people.

After a long time, among the displaced people, a woman in her thirties showed a slight glimmer of light in her numb eyes.

She raised her head and said, "This good man, what you said is true? On our side, those children who are under the age of thirteen can really join Jishitang? No more starvation, no more cold?"

The man in blue said: "Yes, as long as it is a child under the age of thirteen, it is fine." Of course, you adults can't join. You can't fight those kids for food, can you?"

The woman resignedly, "Yes...... Yes, the good man is right, as long as the child has something to eat, we don't eat, it's okay......"

The blue-clothed man said: "You adults, you should actually find the government to help you." ”

"Come, come, come on, children under the age of thirteen, all stand up and come with me. I'll take you to a good place to eat and clothe. ”

Among the displaced people, the children are reluctant to leave their loved ones. And those who are parents, although they are reluctant to let go of their children, but if the children follow them, lack of food and clothing, hunger and cold, they may starve to death and freeze to death one day.

So in the end, they all tearfully pushed their children out and let the men in blue take them away.

At this time, a bystander said, "Jishitang has come to receive those children again." ”

Another person continued: "This is also no way, I heard that in the past two years, Liangzhou in the northwest has been plagued by bandits and famines." A large number of displaced people have been displaced to the nearby state capital. We have also come to Shuzhou, and there are many displaced people from the northwest. ”

"Yes, the Jishitang opened by Wan Yuanwai was originally used to help the world and the people. Now that this situation is encountered, it is natural to take in those orphaned children. ”

"Alas, those who are officials don't know how to save those homeless people. ”

"Hey, there is no good thing in being an official, they are all a group of corrupt officials!"

Ning Xiaotang and the three of them all watched all this silently.

After a long time, Ning Xiaotang said, "Let's go, let's go find an inn first." ”
