Chapter 270: The Call for Help in the Night Fog
The water source of the second village of Lihuagou was completely polluted a week ago. The entire village has four to five thousand people, and it only relies on some old wells for maintenance.
Every day they send people out to look for clean water, but it is these people who go out who are most likely to become the food of the dragon.
On the side of the first village, a group of people was selected to go to the second village, just to deliver a few barrels of clean water, but now they were intercepted and killed by Sanglong, which made the people in the village even more panic.
"The situation in our village is pretty good now. We have water and food. As long as we don't go out casually, those mourning dragons don't dare to show their faces easily. After all, their cultivation is not too high, but other villages are not very optimistic. I’m afraid we won’t be able to survive if we go on.” The patriarch uncle was worried, not only worried about their current situation, but also had to find a way for other villages.
"If you want to help, you should go to the second village. The most important thing is to send drinking water there. Otherwise, even if Sanglong is eliminated, many people will probably die of dehydration."
"Then prepare some water bags that are easy to carry, and we will rush there overnight." Hu Bailing said.
"By the way, you can take these gems too, as a thank you from our Lihuagou clan for your risky death." The patriarch said.
He beckoned and called a few women. They took some embroidered bags they wove, and poured out emerald green, light blue, crystal yellow, and pink-white transparent gemstones one by one, and tied them in A bigger jewelry bag, and then handed it to Zhu Minglang.
Zhu Minglang was stunned for a while, and subconsciously took the heavy bag full of jewels.
"This is what we have obtained in the past few months, and we have given it to you. In this situation, these things are of no use to us. I just hope that you can help us with all your strength and help Lihuagou to tide over this difficulty. , if you need anything in the future, you can come to our Lihuagou and talk to me." Uncle Fold said quite generously.
This big bag of gems is very valuable, and all of them are of very high quality.
Zhu Minglang didn't expect that the reward for this rescue commission was so high, and he had just stepped into the first village and only killed three mourning dragons.
"They are rich in gemstones here. The Di's consortium has always wanted to do long-term business with them, but they are not very willing. I wish the city lord, this time we will go all out. If Runyu City can take over the gemstone business here in the future, it will give us The city adds a lot of income every year." Hu Bailing said to Zhu Minglang in a low voice.
"Rescuing the suffering is the original wish of an upright person like me. It's not that important whether gems are gems or not." Zhu Minglang put away the whole bag of gems very neatly after saying these words.
...
Zhu Minglang was not good at counting in front of people.
In short, if the bag of gems can be sold for a good price, it will be worth two or three hundred thousand gold.
This is equivalent to the first commission paid by the patriarch of the village...
Being able to save neighbors and harvest gems, this kind of thing has the best of both worlds, Zhu Minglang is still very motivated.
When they arrived at the back of the stockade, the people in the first stockade had already prepared enough full sleeping bags and hung them on the bodies of several cattle and beasts.
These bulls and beasts are strong and docile, and they are very suitable for carrying mountain goods. However, if there are no strong people to protect them, such cows and beasts will easily become the food of those demon spirits and demon spirits.
Not to mention the cunning and sinister Zanglong.
"I'll show you the way." The young man wearing the fur hat said.
"Okay, other people don't have to follow, and protect the village." Zhu Minglang nodded.
It was already night, the mountains and forests were pitch black, and human lives were at stake. It was not easy for them to delay now, so they continued to rush to the second village in Lihuagou.
There are still a few villages along the way, and they used to live with some villagers, but the people in these villages have all migrated to the villages with wooden walls. Of course, some of them have not had time to evacuate, and you can see blood stains around the villages Ban Ban, no one dared to bury some of the bones.
The cattle and beasts were not walking very fast, after all they were still carrying a heavy water bag.
Zhu Minglang sat on the back of one of the bull beasts, and looked back at the slightly pale prophet's sister-in-law.
Girl Xinghua was obviously not suitable for such a long-distance raid, and worried that she would catch cold, Zhu Minglang took a blanket and wrapped her delicate body.
"Are you tired? Why don't you and Yu Suo wait for me in the first village first, and I'll deliver water." Zhu Minglang said.
Li Xinghua shook his head, showed a beautiful and gentle smile and said, "With you, I feel more at ease."
"Have you used prophecy?" Zhu Minglang looked into her eyes, which were a little special, bright and charming like a starry sky.
"Many people will die." Li Xinghua whispered.
"Let's just do our best, and you don't have to think too much." Zhu Minglang comforted.
The night was extraordinarily quiet, not even the chirping of insects or birds, let alone the low growls of wild animals. This area became a dead mountain, as if all creatures were holding their breath, in a state of self-preservation .
"Help... help!"
"Help... help!"
A deep cry for help came from under the cliff, with a bit of numbness and despair, but it kept calling, as if expecting someone to hear it.
Someone in distress in the wild?
Could it be the people who delivered the water before?
Zhu Minglang looked in that direction, and found that the place was shrouded in a pitch-black night fog, and there were extremely lush plants growing nearby, vines, dead wood, and old trees swayed in the cold night like gloomy claws.
"I heard someone calling for help, I'll go and have a look," Zhu Minglang said.
At this moment, Li Xinghua grabbed Zhu Minglang's hand and held it tighter.
Zhu Minglang could feel the coldness of her palms, and at the same time, he could feel her nervousness.
"Don't go." Li Xinghua shook her head, her exquisite face showed a bit of seriousness and seriousness.
On the contrary, Zhu Minglang was a little puzzled. Doesn't the prophet's sister-in-law have a heart of a bodhisattva?
Zhu Minglang glanced at the reactions of the others.
It was strange to say that it seemed that except for himself, no one else heard the low and weak cry for help.
Probably because of his stronger perception of spiritual power.
"Dangerous?" Zhu Minglang asked.
Li Xinghua nodded.
In fact, Li Xinghua didn't know what happened there, and she couldn't hear the so-called cries for help.
All she knew was that Zhu Minglang couldn't go alone into the black night mist at this moment, it would be dangerous!
Although she couldn't bear it, she didn't want anything to happen to Zhu Minglang.
