Chapter 196

When they came out of the cave, they could feel the heat wave against their faces. When the two returned to the old man's room, they saw that the old man had disappeared, and there was a low cry from the bedroom inside.

Zhan Jinfeng was taken aback, and hurried into the inner room, only to see a scrawny little boy lying on the dry kang. The boy was scorched all over, almost dying.

"Old man, what's the matter?"

The old man, who was lying on the kang with a headache and crying, was taken aback for a moment. He looked up and saw them, a trace of fear could not help showing in his eyes, he let out a strange cry, and threw himself on the kang.

"You... are you here to take my life? I, I have no other choice. If I don't do this, everyone in our village will die. I beg you to spare me, and don't take my Niu Er away. ah!"

Speaking of which, the old man burst into tears, and pressed his body tightly on the dying boy.

At this moment, Zhan Jinfeng fully understood what was going on.

She had no choice but to comfort her: "Master, don't be afraid, we are all alive, those robbers have left here and will never come back!"

Hearing this, the old man who was still in shock turned his head tremblingly, looked them up and down carefully with his old and helpless eyes, and asked weakly after a long time: "You, are you really alive? Didn't you come here? A murderous ghost?"

Zhan Jinfeng just felt sad for a while, thinking about those high-ranking officials in the capital, they would never live in such a miserable and cautious way, right?
"No, the villains on the mountain have left, and the spring water on the mountain is yours!"

Hearing this, muddy tears flowed from the old man's eyes. He knelt down with a plop, and was about to kowtow to Zhan Jinfeng. She was shocked, stood up quickly, and pulled the old man up together.

"Old man, what are you going to do, get up quickly, and look at the child on the bed first!"

Hearing what she said, the old man got up in a hurry, stretched out his arms and hugged the young man on the kang, and at this moment, he was able to see the young man's appearance clearly.

The rough linen clothes on his body were so dirty that the original color could hardly be distinguished, except for the patches, there were torn holes, revealing the thin and dirty body inside. The boy's eyes were closed and his brows were tightened, looking very uncomfortable.

"Let's go to the cave!"

The old man nodded repeatedly, hugged the boy in his arms tightly, staggered and led the two of them, and ran directly to the entrance of the cave halfway up the mountain.

Chen Shaoyan was already waiting there, and when he saw them coming, he waved his hands. Several people walked in, picked up the torches that were still on the ground, and walked in slowly.

The coolness inside the cave gives people a pleasant feeling, but Zhan Jinfeng only feels that the hot and dry outside does not belong here.

The old man became cautious from the moment he entered the cave, until he entered the bottom of the cave, but when he reached the empty bottom of the cave, he let out a long sigh of relief, and then put the boy in his arms on the edge of the cold pool , a pair of eyes are already blurred.

"Second son, come, drink some water, drink some water!"

As he spoke, he took out a wooden ladle from his body, filled it with water, and fed it into the boy's mouth in small bites.

As if he had come into contact with the moist air, the young man groaned, his dry and peeling lips moved slightly, and the icy cold pool water slipped into his stomach, and the young man's body trembled violently, as if he had come to life He suddenly held the water ladle and drank it with a big gulp.

Seeing this, the old man wept with joy. While crying, he couldn't help but said: "There are more, there are so many, don't worry!"

Seeing this scene, even the usually cold Chen Shaoyan couldn't help frowning.

He has seen the people and the hard work of plowing the land, but he has never seen such a scene.

He has never seen the victims, nor the most miserable moment.

While the old man was feeding Niu Er, Zhan Jinfeng took out a small bag from his bosom, took out a peach pit from it, found a place in the crevices of the stones around the cold pool, and planted the peach pit.

Then she took out the table and pressed it lightly on the stone. With a slight movement of her mind, she could feel a trace of cold breath slowly filling her eyes along the bracelet, and then penetrated under the stone.

That is, in the blink of an eye, the little seedling broke out of the ground, and it grew to be as tall as a person in a short time.

Zhan Jinfeng's face was slightly pale, and he felt that the hostility in his body seemed to be overdrawn, and he was panting non-stop.

This is her first attempt. She has always known that her table can accelerate the ripening of fruits and can also control the ripening time of fruits. She has been thinking about whether her bracelet can also make seedlings grow quickly. This time the experiment , he found that he had done it, and in the blink of an eye, the peach pit grew more than one meter high!

She did it!It's just that his strength seemed to be drained in an instant, making him much weaker.

If this is the case, even if the seeds are planted in the future, it can be guaranteed that the mature fruits can be picked within the first year!

This made Zhan Jinfeng very happy. The way she looked at the bracelet on her wrist changed again and again. Just when she thought the bracelet's abilities were limited to this, the bracelet brought her a big surprise. !

She even wondered what kind of ability this bracelet would have in the future!

However, she didn't tell everyone that there was a peach tree here, because she wanted to make the peach tree bear peaches as quickly as possible. Now she has no strength at all, so she can only wait until tomorrow.

Niu Er moved in his grandfather's arms, and then slowly opened his eyelids, he snorted, and then noticed his grandfather's worried face.

"Grandpa..." Niu Er called weakly.

The old man was overjoyed when he heard the words, and couldn't help nodding, his eyes were moist again.

"Grandpa is here, grandpa is here!"

Seeing that her grandson was really healed, the old man couldn't bear to kneel down to Zhan Jinfeng again, so she had no choice but to rush over and help him up.

And because of her physical exhaustion, she accidentally swayed along with it.

Holding her leaning body with strong hands, Chen Shaoyan glanced at her worriedly, with an inquiring expression on his face, but she just smiled at him and didn't say anything.

The old man thought they were tired, so he said, "Guys, although there is nothing to eat in our village, we should be able to find some wild vegetables in the back mountain. Our big cow is fine, so let him go to the mountain. Dig some, you also rest and leave tomorrow, but we want you to eat wild vegetable soup with us!"

Zhan Jinfeng smiled and shook his head: "We should thank the old man!"

The old man was a little embarrassed when he heard the words. He said that Niu Er stayed here and went down the mountain to call someone. After all, there are no bandits here, and everyone can drink water.
