Reborn as a Cube Man in the Late Ming Dynasty
Chapter 83 Asking the Immortals
After breeding the animals on the farm, Bai Li couldn't wait to find the villagers to exchange for emeralds.
Of course, the main one is Liu Wusan, who can exchange wheat for emeralds. Bai Li plans to raise his exchange level first to see if he can get anything useful.
On the way to the village, Bai Li found Tie Shan squatting on the ground, looking at something.
"Tieshan, what are you doing squatting there?" Bai Li asked in confusion.
Tieshan slowly moved aside, and Bai Li could see clearly that Tieshan was holding a red flower and actually wanted to give it to a black cat.
By the way, where did this black cat come from? Could it have spawned in the village?
"When did this appear, Tieshan? You usually wander around the village, did you know that?" Bai Li asked in surprise.
Seeing Tieshan shake his head, he didn't ask any more questions. He took out the cod and used it on the black cat. Before long, a red heart appeared on its head.
At this moment, the black cat also meowed gently and nuzzled Bai Li's legs with its little head.
I've captured Black Catmon!
We're cat owners now, let's bring one home!
Bai Li happily took a puff of his nose at the black cat, then held it up in the air. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Hmm, I need to give you a name."
"Meow~" The black cat licked its paws, staring at Bai Li with its orange eyes.
"In that case, you can call yourself Meng. If you like it, just meow," Bai Li said with a big smile.
"Meow~ Meow~" the black cat meowed softly.
Hmm, twice.
That's double the agreement, absolutely full of agreement!
"Okay, Meng, you stay here for now, I'll take you to my room in a bit!" Bai Li said with a smile, and put Meng on the ground.
As for Liu Er, he stared at the dream circling around Bai Li and felt a vague sense of crisis.
Tieshan looked at the red flower in his hand.
I feel bad that I couldn't send it out.
Just then, a villager hurriedly passed by, and Tieshan went over and gave the red flower to the villager.
"Ah, thank you, Divine General!" The villager, who was carrying water, was suddenly stopped by Tieshan. He was taken aback at first, then put down the water and happily accepted the flower.
Then, with great effort, he lifted the load onto his shoulder pole, bowed respectfully to Bai Li, who smiled and returned the bow. After that, the villager left.
"Hey Tieshan," Bai Li said with a sigh, then chuckled, "I know you sent flowers to express your feelings, but you have to do it when the other person isn't busy. Look at what happened just now, you even had to bother them."
Seeing Tieshan's somewhat disappointed look, Bai Li thought for a moment and added, "Of course, in this situation, you could try making a flower wreath, the kind you can wear around your neck, that way it won't be a problem!"
Tieshan nodded and continued to inspect the village while weaving a flower wreath in his hand.
"Shall I leave too?" Bai Li said to Meng.
As if it understood, the black cat sat down and quietly watched Bai Li leave.
"Zhu Zi, do you know where Liu Wu San is?" Bai Li asked as she arrived at the village and saw Zhu Zi walking around.
"Who...is Young Master Bai!" Zhu Zi said with a fawning smile, stammering, "Uncle Wu is still outside planting mushrooms! There were too many people yesterday, and Uncle Wu and the others were too tired to handle it all, so they decided to let them squeeze into a large mushroom house for the time being, plant the red mushrooms under the cover of night, and continue building the mushroom house during the day."
"Okay, I understand."
Stepping outside the earthen wall, one could see Liu Wusan and his group busy planting mushrooms, while most of the refugees leaned against the wall numbly, their pupils dilated, their faces ashen, devoid of any life, each holding a small bowl of noodles and a steamed bun.
Worried that these people, having been hungry for so long, might overeat, we could only give them small amounts of food at first, just enough to fill their stomachs.
Compared to the people of Liujia Village that Bai Li had met before, they were in a much worse state. Their families were destroyed, their wives and children were separated, and they were used as reserve food by the bandits. They had been tortured beyond recognition.
If Bai Li hadn't been able to see their eyeballs moving, he would have thought they were just corpses.
The only ones who showed some vitality were the children, but only slightly. Perhaps due to malnutrition, most of the children were swollen all over.
Children can't be like that; they have to be able to jump high and run far, and they have to be chubby to look good, so they need to get plenty of nutrition.
It's time to kill the chicken.
Yes, and eggs too!
Experience the nightmares of my childhood!
I have to eat them all.
If there aren't enough eggs, Miao Zhiming can just take some from the remaining 60%. After all, he can only use the eggs to feed the chicks anyway.
Bai Li stared blankly, thinking to herself.
"Boss, a kid is coming this way," Liu Er said hesitantly from the side.
Child?
Bai Li looked in the direction Liu Er was looking and indeed saw a little girl.
The girl's hair was dry and sparse, no different from a clump of withered yellow straw. Her lips were chapped and stained with a trace of blood, a result of not eating for a long time.
Her clothes were tattered and patched, with holes, and could no longer conceal her thin body and sunken belly.
She approached Bai Li, a glimmer of hope appearing in her lifeless eyes.
"Big brother, are you a god?" the girl asked tentatively, her voice hoarse and hollow. "My mother told me that gods can make it rain so that we can have enough to eat. Those uncles who can grow giant mushrooms all say you're a god, is that true?"
Bai Li glanced around and saw that the refugees all raised their heads slightly and pricked up their ears.
They were also waiting for Bai Li's answer; they needed a reason to live and move forward.
Do I deserve to be called an immortal?
After pondering for a long time, Bai Li gave his answer amidst everyone's anticipation.
"Of course I am a god."
Bai Li let out a heavy sigh and said decisively, "It's just about having enough to eat and a place to stay. Don't worry, no one will go hungry here!"
"Thank you, fairy brother," the girl said with tears in her eyes.
"Thank you for being willing to come down from heaven to see us."
