Chapter 268: Reaching the Mountain Village to Release Water and Grain

Chapter 268: Reaching the Mountain Village to Release Water and Grain

Just when Ji Mo led the Black Whirlwind across the river, Li Yaoguang also brought his Naimiao and followed the Dayao and Xiaoyao who returned with a lot of goods, and arrived at the settlement in Yushan, Jincheng.

This mountain stronghold deep in Yushan Mountain was built very secretly. Not only did it occupy a natural barrier, but the way there was also secret. If there was no one to lead the way, you wouldn't be able to find it even if you knew there was a village in the mountains.

Before arriving, the sentry on duty today on the wooden watchtower at the entrance of the village far away spotted a familiar figure coming out of the secret passage. The sentry was overjoyed and directly struck the gong on the watchtower and shouted loudly towards the stacked villages built on the mountain behind.

"Brother Yao is back in the mountains, Brother Yao is back in the mountains..."

At any moment, the entire silent and dull village suddenly came alive. The old men and women stopped what they were doing, the men stopped working, and even the children stopped playing and looked towards the village gate.

"Are Dayao and the others really back?"

"I wonder if they found any water?"

"My family ran out of food the day before yesterday. I wonder if the village chief and his men have come up with a solution?"

Everybody was talking about it, and all their eyes were directed towards the village gate, hoping that their leader, Big Brother, could bring hope to everyone.

Obviously, the sentry on the watchtower also knew what everyone was hoping for.

He tiptoed and looked out, and saw that the group of people who were getting closer were carrying heavy loads. When the sentry spoke again, he was completely surprised.

"Fellow villagers, fellow villagers, Younger Brother and his men are carrying things! They have sacks, basins, buckets, and more! Fellow villagers, Younger Brother and all of you powerful brothers must be back with water and food..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the people who had gathered in the small square behind the village gate became excited and couldn't help talking.

"Really? Really? Xiao Liuzi, did you see it clearly?"

"Really, really, I think it's real!"

"Great, great, I knew our youngest was capable. He led our entire tribe into the mountains decisively. Now that we are short of water and food, he can lead everyone to find water and food. The problem is that they can really find it! Hahaha, good boy, good boy! He really is worthy of being the most powerful and strong guy in our tribe, hahaha, good, good."

When the elders from the same clan as Dayao heard the good news, they laughed with their teeth broken. However, the old lady from the same clan next to them was not convinced and could not help but spit.

"Tsk, you are just saying it after the fact. When the eldest and the youngest came back, you were still scolding them. How come you know how to praise them now? I am different from you, old man. When the eldest came to join the army and brought the youngest and their parents to Kyoto, I could see that the eldest was very capable!"

"Bah, no matter how capable I am, I won't give you more food. He is not your son, so why are you showing off?"

"What's wrong with you showing off? If you don't show off, you can get more points? I am the most fair and just nephew, and I will not spoil you, an old man."

The two old guys were about to start a fight, but the tribesmen nearby and the villagers who were rescued by Da Yao and his friends were busy trying to dissuade them.

"You two, you two! You are old enough, you should set a good example for the younger ones, and stop arguing. The youngest ones are about to come in, and it's not good for us to be arguing like this."

"Yes, yes."

"Humph! Who wants to argue with such an old woman?"

"You think I'm rare!"

"Alright, big brother and his gang are here, open the gate!"

With a shout from the sentry on the watchtower, the chaos and quarreling below finally stopped, and everyone was in unison, staring intently at the direction of the village gate.

Seeing that even the leader of the village, Da Yao, was also busy, everyone who saw it with their own eyes immediately burst into exclamations of joy.

There were some clever little kids in the crowd who were not afraid of people. After all, no matter how fierce the eldest one looked or how little he liked to smile, he was pretty nice to other children, so the kids were naturally brave.

They ran up in groups of three or five, surrounded the young ones who were entering the village one after another, and asked them happily.

"Uncle Yao, Uncle Yao, did you find water?" Yao Yao smiled rarely and nodded heavily, "Yes! Not only water, but also food, enough for our village to last for a while."

As soon as the song fell, the children danced and jumped for joy.

"Oh, brother Liuzi guessed it right. Great Uncle is the best. He really came back with food and water. He really came back with food and water! Grandpa, grandma, daddy, mommy, please come soon. We don't have to worry about starving to death or dying of thirst anymore. Great Uncle is really the best."

The children's joyful laughter resounded through the sky. After the people behind them got the 100% accurate answer, they were first surprised, and then they couldn't help crying out loud.

"That's great, that's great. Finally, everyone won't be starving or dying of thirst anymore. That's great, it's really great!"

Da Yao and others looked at the villagers who were staring at them in the square, took off what was on their shoulders and in their hands, and spoke to everyone.

"Fellow villagers, we are back, and we did bring water and food with us, but these are not my own doing. They are the result of your kindness in reminding us to run for our lives when Jingnan City was captured, which saved me, my brothers and my family from disaster!"

Raising his hand, Da Yao pointed at Li Yaoguang, who was protecting the center of the team and had just walked into the village gate.

When Li Yaoguang had no idea what was going on, she saw everyone looking at her with gratitude in their eyes.

However, this is not the end. Da Yao continued: "Fellow villagers, not only that, our brother's benefactor is not only a righteous man, but also has the ability to find water sources. He also agreed to our request and is willing to help us find water sources for our village."

Upon hearing the good news, everyone exclaimed again.

"Oh my god! Really?"

"Is it such a good thing?"

"As expected of you, you are the benefactor of Yaotou and the others. You are so capable!"

The capable Li Yaoguang felt embarrassed when people praised her so much. Amid the praises from everyone, Dayao spoke again.

"But folks, let's be frank for now. I want to remind you that no one is perfect. My benefactor is not a god, so he can't be perfect in everything. You all know how severe the drought is today. Even if you agree to help us find water, it depends on God's will. If you can't find it, don't blame me for making all kinds of accusations afterwards. If that happens, don't blame me for being ruthless. No matter who it is, even if they are relatives of the same clan, once I find them, I will drive them out of the village to fend for themselves. I will never let them off easily."

The eldest brother's words were very serious. Everyone knew his character, so they didn't dare to be disrespectful and nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, nephew. We all understand the truth. We have all suffered enough and will never blame our benefactors."

"Right, right, don't worry, village chief. Regardless of whether we can find water or not, we will all remember the kindness of our benefactor. If anyone complains behind my back, I, Fatty San, will be the first one to not let him off!"

"Yes, yes, yes. Just be at ease, brother."

Hearing the unanimous responses from the crowd in front of him, Li Yaoguang smiled first.

I have to say that after going through so many disasters, the eldest brother has already seen through human nature. Although he is still soft-hearted and loyal, he will never condone or tolerate anything and will always maintain his bottom line. By saying this directly, he has relieved all his worries.

that's nice!

Isn't that really good? Seeing that everyone is sensible and has been vaccinated, the youngest one just waved his hand and was generous again.

"In this case, I will trust you all for once. Now everyone go home and get their stuff, and we will release the water and food."

"Oh, oh, oh, release the water and the grain, release the water and the grain..."

In an instant, the huge village was filled with joy, that was the joy of life.

Dear ones, I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, a happy festival and happiness to your family.

In addition, because I am going back to my hometown for the holidays, the update may be late, thank you.
