planet reborn

Moses was walking alone in the wild. He didn't know where he was going, he just looked at the place where the sun rose and kept walking like this.

He drank some sweet river water when he was thirsty and ate some fresh berries when he was hungry, until one day he came to a grassland. The scenery here made him forget the fear and exhaustion of fleeing.

A shepherd driving his sheep passed by him. He asked the shepherd: "What is the name of this place?"

The shepherd said, "This is Midian."

Moses asked again, "Is there a village here?"

The shepherd said: "Go straight east and you will see the village. Maybe I can give you, a poor man, an unleavened bread to satisfy your hunger."

Moses thanked the shepherd and continued to move toward the east. However, after walking for a while, he felt someone was staring at him from behind. He looked back and saw the shepherd standing there staring at him, seemingly with a smile on his face.

.

After Moses bowed to the shepherds from a distance, he continued on his way.

Sure enough, he saw the village not far away. It was very quiet and harmonious here. He walked to the well at the entrance of the village, drew some well water and drank it. Then he sat by the well to rest, thinking about where he would go next.

, to be honest, he doesn’t know either.

This well may be the only water source in this village, so it is very noisy here. Next to it is the livestock shed, which is full of cattle and sheep. The screams of animals are endless. Many people from the village come here to draw water, but no one cares.

Moses, the stranger passing by.

It wasn't until a woman's laughter came to mind that it attracted Moses' attention.

He saw seven girls each carrying a bucket and walking towards the well. Moses found that the youngest of the seven girls was indeed the most beautiful. He was immediately attracted to this girl and stared at her intently.

The girl also found an unkempt guy staring at her, and her face turned red inadvertently.

The girls came to the well and started to fetch water, but a rough fat man stopped them.

The fat man shouted: "Get away quickly. You despicable women, my cows need water."

The beautiful girl retorted: "We were here first, so we should fetch water first. Besides, my flock also needs water."

The fat man pushed the girl away and said, "I don't care. When I come, I have to get water first. You all should go away!"

The girl said: "Why are you so rude?"

The fat man threatened the girl with his eyes widened: "What? Do you want to be beaten?"

At this time, Moses suddenly stood up, pointed at the fat man and said, "These girls came first, so they should draw water first!"

The fat man turned his head and looked at Moses with disdain and asked, "Who are you? You are not worthy of talking to me in this place called Midian."

Moses walked up to the fat man without showing any signs of weakness and said solemnly: "Although I am not a Midianite, everyone has a say in the face of justice! Today you must let the girls draw water first!"

The fat man took a step back and looked at Moses and said, "What? Do you want to hit me?"

Moses grabbed the fat man by the collar and said, "If you bully these girls again, I will show you how powerful my fists are."

Moses was tall and burly, and the fat man was no match for him. Moses' strong hands gripped the fat man's neck, almost making him breathless.

The fat man became timid and did not dare to be tough anymore, so he could only say: "It's up to you, just don't hurt me."

Moses really didn't want to cause any more trouble. He let go of the fat man and threw him aside. Then he came to the girls and said with a smile: "If you are willing, please let me work for you."

The beautiful girl handed the bucket to Moses and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, stranger."

Moses helped the seven girls draw a lot of water from the well, and also helped them drink the sheep. All this happened in a short period of time.

Finally, the girls left with great gratitude. Moses looked at the back of the beautiful girl in a daze. But the girl suddenly turned around and gave Moses an intoxicating smile.

After the girls left, Moses fell into deep thought again. He continued to think about his future. But after thinking for a long time, he had no answer.

It wasn't until a shadow blocked the sunlight on his face that he came back to his senses, looked up, and found the girl standing in front of him.

Moses smiled tiredly and asked, "Is there anything else you need my help with?"

The girl said: "My father wants to see you?"

"Your father?"

"Yes!" The girl nodded and continued, "His name is Reuel, and he is the priest here."

Moses asked, "Why does your father want to see me?"

The girl said: "To thank you for helping our sisters."

Moses waved his hand and said, "Forget it, these little things, I didn't know the old man would reward me like this."

The girl picked up Moses and said, "Let's go, stranger. My father said that he must see you today."

Moses was dragged by the girl to the village. In a courtyard, he met the girl's father, the old man Reuel who claimed to be a Midianite priest.

Reuel was an old man with a kind face, and Moses felt very kind to him when he first met him. Reuel also warmly entertained Moses, and he ordered his girl to immediately kill a sheep as food to reward Moses.

Moses declined and said, "It doesn't have to be like this. I didn't do anything. If you can, just give me a bowl of water to drink."

Reuel said: "Young man, there are not many people like you in this world. No matter what your purpose is, if you help us, we must thank you. This is the staff entrusted to us by God."

Moses asked, "Do you believe that God exists?"

Reuel smiled and said, "God is everywhere. Perhaps what happened today was deliberately arranged by God to allow you and me to be together now."

Moses laughed to himself and said, "But I don't feel the presence of God."

Reuel asked: "Looking at you, you must have encountered some kind of trouble?"

Moses honestly told Reuel everything that had happened before, and finally he said: "I don't know where to go now. God has not given me any guidance. I am like a stray lamb. Maybe soon."

He will be eaten by wolves."

Reuel said: "Young man, there must be a place in this world for you, maybe it's here."

Moses asked, "Old man, what do you mean?"

Reuel said: "I believe in the existence of God. Maybe God really brought you here. You are an honest man. I trust you very much. If you are willing, you can stay with me. I am old and cannot

You can help me look after the sheep."

"Is it really possible?" Moses could hardly believe his ears.

Reuel pointed to his simple and poor hut and said, "As long as you don't dislike this place, you can stay."

Moses smiled and said: "Of course I won't dislike it. I'm tired of the life of escape. But I'm afraid it will bring trouble to you and your family."

Reuel said: "This is far away from Memphis. The Egyptians will not care about this place. Besides, why would an Israelite submit to Pharaoh?"

Moses smiled and said, "Old man, I am also an Israelite."

Reuel nodded and said: "Although you are wearing Egyptian clothes, I can still tell that you are one of my own people. You are really lucky to survive, but all three of my sons were killed by Pharaoh.

Ordered to kill."

Moses wanted to say some words of comfort, but Reuel stopped him. He said: "No need to comfort me, I am strong! The Israelites are not so easily defeated!"

The beautiful girl brought the roasted lamb. Moses was really hungry. He ate like a hungry wolf and almost ate the whole roasted lamb. Reuel's seven daughters crowded at the door and watched the man gobble it up.

They all looked like they were laughing non-stop.

Reuel's face was also full of smiles. He handed Moses a cup of goat's milk and said: "Young man, if you eat my roasted sheep, you must take care of my flock for me!"

Moses said, "But I don't know how to shepherd sheep."

Reuel called the beautiful girl into the house and pointed it out to Moses and said, "This is my youngest daughter, her name is Zipporah. She will tell you how to take care of the sheep."

Moses raised his head and looked at the beautiful Zipporah, and couldn't help but be stunned. Zipporah smiled and said: "From today on, I will be your teacher!" To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster
