Divine Reverence

Chapter 74 Poverty is the Lord of Demons

One day, she came to a small thatched cottage.

There are few people here, and there is only this one nearby. She plans to stay here tonight.

The small thatched hut has almost no door, but it can also be said to have a door. This grass door can hardly be called a door anymore, hanging there like a broken grass ring, swaying non-stop.

"Excuse me, is anyone there?" Zi Yueyan stood in front of the broken grass door and shouted loudly.

"Who is it?" A mosquito-like voice and a ghost-like figure floated in front of Zi Yueyan.

"Ah, is this a human or a ghost?" A person who looked like a ghost came out, with disheveled hair covering half of the person's face.

A pair of eyes were deeply sunken in the eye sockets, and the eyes were a dead gray color.The clothes on his body were stripped like a piece of rag, no matter how he looked, he looked like a starving ghost who came out of hell.

"Are you a human or a ghost?" Although Zi Yueyan has never seen a ghost, the person in front of her looks too much like a ghost.

"I'm human, what's the matter, girl?" The ghost's voice sounded ethereal, like a wandering spirit.

"You are human..." Zi Yueyan didn't even see how he looked like a human.

"Come in." The man walked towards the house like walking on clouds, his body fell to the left for a while, swayed to the right for a while, and swayed forward again for a while, "What kind of footwork is this, it's so weird?" Zi Yueyan followed carefully.

Thatched huts can no longer be called thatched huts.

There are grass circles hanging on the roof on three sides, and the grass leaves are constantly swaying in the wind.

The only roof that can be regarded as good is still on top of it in tatters at this time.

The man in front finally entered the hut.

There were two dark objects standing at the door.The whole body is pitch black, with a pair of eyes looking straight at Zi Yueyan.

"What kind of monster is this?" Zi Yueyan didn't see it, but just looked at what they were going to do with a look of wariness.

"Mom, I'm hungry." One of the little black things slowly moved its eyes.A drop of crystal clear water flowed down from there, and slowly another drop of water fell down.There was a whining sound from his mouth, which was extremely weak. If it was not in front of his eyes, no one could hear this weak crying.

The person "I" turned around and covered his face with his hands, with his back to the two black things, tears fell like rain.

"What, those two turned out to be children, how is this possible, I didn't see the appearance of a child at all." Zi Yueyan lost the ability to think for 10 minutes.

Finally, Zi Yueyan understood why the person she saw for the first time walked like that, it turned out that he was hungry and had no strength.

"Eat it." She took out the food she brought with her, divided it into several pieces, and gave them to the three mother and child pairs.

"Ah" there were still tears in the eyes, the little black thing, when it saw the food in Zi Yueyan's hand, two flashes of lightning flashed from its eyes, it snatched the food and stuffed it into its mouth, the food covered the child's mouth All filled, the child's eyes rolled upward.

"Ah, you can't eat like this, it will spoil you," Ziyueyan yelled, fortunately, she just made a smaller portion.Stretching out her hand and pointing at the child, she filled the child with a little water, and slowly the food fell into his stomach bit by bit.

Only then did Zi Yueyan breathe a sigh of relief, looking at the old pieces of the bowl she found at random because of her impatience, there was still a little water in it.

The edges of the old film have been worn smooth, without any sharp edges.

In a blink of an eye, the mother and son finished eating the food Zi Yueyan gave.

"You can't eat too much, go and wash your body well, come back, I still have something to eat for you" The eyes of these people are still staring at Ziyueyan.

They were not full, and the hope in their eyes made one feel sad.

Hearing Zi Yueyan's words, the two little black things ran away.

The woman didn't move.

"Thank you for the kind girl." The tears in the woman's eyes never stopped.

Seeing that the two children were starving to death, she, as a mother, was helpless, seeing her children starving to death.

If she could save the two children and let her do anything, she would do anything, even if it was death, she didn't care.

The two children were finally saved.

After a while, two children ran in.

"Thank you, aunt!" The woman called the two children over to salute.

"Thank you, aunt, I still want to eat." The younger child timidly came to Zi Yueyan.

"Ah" This is a little boy with a sallow face, eyes sunken deeply in the eye sockets, no clothes on his body, every bone is clearly attached to the skin, the bones of the two arms and legs are like two pieces of wood The body is supported like a stick.

The little conch is quietly in front of him.

The other older one was a girl, also full body, scrawny, with only skin and bones on her body.

The two children looked at Zi Yueyan timidly.

"Come here, come here, take this and eat it." Zi Yueyan tore the beef jerky into small pieces and held a little bit in her hands. She didn't dare to feed them too much for fear of ruining the stomachs of the two children. up.

In this state of extreme hunger, she couldn't eat too much food. It was best to eat some porridge, but she only had ready-made food on her body, and she didn't bring anything like rice.

As soon as the two children saw that it was food, they immediately put their fear aside, and rushed to Ziyueyan, licking the little bits of meat in her palms with their tongues, and licked them clean bit by bit.The small mouth is still chattering continuously.

"I'll eat it for you next meal. You can't eat too much now, you won't be able to take it anymore." Zi Yueyan looked at the two children, and couldn't stop crying.

She never thought that there are people who can't even eat a bite of food, and don't even have a piece of clothing to cover their bodies.What kind of benevolence and morality, what love for the people like children, what is for the sake of the people, are all nonsense.

Take a look at how the mother and son live in this family. They are starving to death and freezing to death.

It is summer now, if it is winter, these three people would have starved to death and froze to death in this wilderness.

Who would have noticed such a family of three, who would have thought that someone would be struggling on the verge of life and death.

Those rich people, those who are officials, who will really think about the common people.

Zi Yueyan felt deeply guilty. She was also a princess, and she also spent money like water.

The woman also washed up, and she was also a pretty woman.

Her husband died early, and she took her two children to avoid forced living. Recently, she really has no money or grain.

Seeing two hungry and crying children, until the two weak children who didn't even have the strength to cry, as a mother, her heart was pierced, but she really couldn't help it.

Ziyueyan bought a lot of food for them, in order to allow the mother and child to survive.

She also taught the two children kung fu, which can strengthen their bodies and hunt some wild animals outside to survive.

She didn't dare to give them too much money, for fear of bringing disaster to them. Only when she was strong, could she protect herself well.

Zi Yueyan lived here for two years, and she passed on some cultivation methods and some ancient scriptures to these two children.

The older girl is 12 years old this year, named Ruyi, and the younger boy is [-] years old, named Rufeng.

The two children are very smart, as long as Ziyueyan teaches them, they can learn quickly, and the two children are very hardworking.

Going out to hunt every day can not only cultivate, but also make food to satisfy hunger.

Zi Yueyan was very satisfied with the two children. Before leaving, she left two precious swords for the two children as self-defense, and told them to practice continuously and strengthen themselves in order to survive.

Zi Yueyan once again embarked on a journey to find the man her master mentioned, her husband-in-law.
