In this weird world, I use my body to control all things
Chapter 112 Taking care of
In winter, the morning sun rises, but when it hits people, they only feel the sun shining on their faces and not the slightest warmth.
Chen Mo was sitting on a chair in the main hall, holding a yellow native cat in his arms, and a small black native dog at his feet.
Zhao Yu brought the cat and the dog from other people's homes in Jishang. He kept the cat to prevent rats and the dog to guard the house and the courtyard.
It's just that they are both too small now, and it will take a while before they can really play their role.
Chen Mo opened the porcelain bottle, used his inner strength to take out a drop of nourishing liquid, gently opened the cat's mouth, and fed it to it.
Immediately he picked up the puppy again and fed it a drop as well.
The spirit nourishing liquid is different from the mirage. The energy and blood power contained in the mirage, whether it can be absorbed by itself or not, will be swallowed up completely by the Ordinary Transformation Pearl.
The spirit-nourishing liquid increases spiritual consciousness, allowing warriors to better open up the sea of consciousness.
Its power can only be absorbed and refined by itself.
Therefore, I cannot absorb it hastily beforehand. I must first make sure that there are no hidden dangers in the nourishing liquid.
Although a small amount of absorption did not cause harm to oneself in the past, it is hard to say what will happen next. It is better to be cautious.
"It's time to eat." Zhao Yu opened the door and walked into the main hall.
"Okay." Chen Mo put down the cat and dog and let them run away happily.
Zhao Yu walked up to him and helped him sweep away the cat and dog hair on his body.
"I have something to do today, so don't prepare my meal at noon."
Chen Mo explained while eating breakfast on the table.
Since he had promised Wei Xia before to help her take care of her family, of course he should abide by the agreement and do it immediately.
No matter whether the nourishing liquid is useful to you or not, even if you use it again, it will cause hidden dangers to you.
But Chen Mo will do what he has promised, otherwise he would not have agreed in the first place.
"Okay, then I'll ask someone to prepare more dinner." Zhao Yu agreed without asking what was going on.
She knew that Chen Mo would definitely be busy with official duties next, and would not have time to eat properly at noon. The dinner at night would of course be richer to reward him for his busy day.
After eating and drinking two pots of tea, Chen Mo took a short rest and left the house.
He did not go alone. It was easy to give him money, but he wanted Wei Xia's family to be able to keep the money.
Then he would have to call a few officials and He Luoyun to go with him.
Chen Mo had asked him to handle all the information he had asked him to find before. Only he knew the specific situation of Wei Xia's family in the village.
First go to the military camp to recruit some officials, and then ask someone to look for He Luoyun.
Not long after, He Luoyun hurried to the military camp with a few personal followers.
"Sir, I don't know why you are calling me!" Seeing Chen Mo, he hurriedly got off his horse and bowed down.
During this period, with Chen Mo as his backing, his business was getting bigger and bigger.
Transporting private salt was a huge profit, and he could only do this business, so his business expanded rapidly without much effort.
"Do you still remember the situation in Wei Xia's family that I asked you to check some time ago?" Chen Mo asked.
"Sir, I remember." He Luoyun hurriedly replied. Although he was a little curious about why Chen Mo suddenly mentioned this matter, he did not dare to ask more questions.
In fact, when Chen Mo asked him to investigate these things before, he was already quite curious as to why Chen Mo, as a seventh-rank official of the imperial court, had to investigate the rumors of hauntings.
But he was able to keep his mouth shut. Not only did he not ask more questions, he also did not say more.
This is why Chen Mo is willing to leave these matters to him, so he can hide things in his heart.
"Okay, now take him to Wei Xia's home." Chen Mo got on his horse.
"Ah!" He Luoyun was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized it. Without daring to ask any more questions, He Luoyun rode in front of Chen Mo to lead the way.
The remaining officials and their personal followers followed behind Chen Mo on horseback.
The eighty-mile journey is said to be far or near, and it only takes an hour to drive a horse and gallop.
Shuangshi Village got its name because there are two stubborn rocks weighing ten thousand kilograms at the entrance of the village.
There are no mountains nearby, so no one knows where these two large rocks came from.
Chen Mo and his party were galloping on horseback, and before they arrived at the entrance of the village, someone came to greet them.
Dozens of people were riding horses, and some were wearing official robes. They were naturally very eye-catching and were noticed early.
"Sir, I am the security chief of Shuangshi Village. I wonder who you are?" An old man in cotton-padded clothes with gray hair, about fifty years old, looked respectful and bowed and asked.
"I am the head of the local Salt Transportation Department. I am here today to find a young man named Wei Dong."
Chen Mo put his hands on the old man to help him up, without concealing his purpose.
"Sir, Wei Dong is an honest and responsible boy. He usually only begs for work near our village to support his mother. He has never done anything bad."
When he heard that Chen Mo was looking for Wei Dong, the old man instinctively felt that nothing good was going on.
After all, even if something good happened, it wouldn't be the turn of Wei Dong, a poor man like Wei Dong who couldn't read and only worked as a coolie.
"I came to see him this time because I wanted to express my gratitude to his family." Chen Mo said the manuscript he had prepared.
"Ah!" The old man was also stunned, completely unexpected.
He Luoyun came up to him at this time. This place was not far from Zhu Niuji, and it was also within the scope of his business.
There are many young men in Shuangshi Village who work under him to make a living.
"Old security chief, why don't you take Mr. Chen to Wei Dong's home quickly?"
After being reminded, the old man reacted and walked towards the village with Chen Mo surrounded.
Although I don't know why Chen Mo wants to thank the Wei family, I think this is a good thing.
But Chen Mo is an official, and he can't stop what he wants to do.
The old thatched house that Wei Dong's family lived in was relatively spacious, but it looked dilapidated because they had no money to repair it.
He was burning the stove, and when he saw so many people coming, his honest and simple face was obviously at a loss, unable to reflect what was happening in front of him.
But when he saw the official robe on Chen Mo, he still instinctively bowed down.
"I have something to discuss with him privately, and I will also find his third sister Wei Qiu." Chen Mo looked at He Luoyun and explained.
"Hey!" He nodded in agreement and hurried to find someone.
"Sir, you..." Wei Dong was clumsy and obviously didn't know how to speak at this time.
When I saw him walking into the house, I just hurriedly followed him.
"Sir, please sit down." He hurriedly found a wide stool and carefully held it to Chen Mo.
As for his mother, she was huddled beside the stove in the house.
The fire was not strong, but only slightly warm.
Seeing Chen Mo walking into the house, she hurriedly saluted with fear.
"My lord, I wonder why you came to our house!" Mother Wei, with gray hair, asked softly, leaning on a cane.
"Old man, please sit down first." Chen Mo said with a smile.
He could tell that Wei Xia's mother didn't have any serious illness.
In other words, there is only one disease, hunger disease.
The treatment is even simpler. Eat more white flour and meat, and your body will naturally recover.
"Sir, I wonder why you are looking for a civilian girl?" Wei Qiu looked frightened and walked into the house and saluted hurriedly.
She is about thirty years old and is dressed in coarse cotton clothes, the most ordinary farmer's outfit.
Chen Mo waved his hand, his inner energy vibrated, and the door closed immediately.
"Do you have a sister named Wei Xia? She was sold to Zhu Niuji Wang's family seventeen years ago." Chen Mo asked as he glanced at the two of them.
"Yes." Both of them nodded in agreement. Although they were still young at that time, they remembered this matter very clearly.
"I have been helped by your sister, and I promised to help her take care of you." Chen Mo said slowly.
The remaining people in the room looked obviously dull, and they really couldn't understand this. They wanted to ask, but some of them didn't dare to ask, so they had to look at each other.
Chen Mo had no intention of explaining to them. If he really wanted to explain, it would be too complicated for them.
"But you cannot let too many people know that your sister has helped me. So if anyone asks you, just say that you have helped me." Chen Mo looked at Wei Dong and explained.
If the fact that Wei Xia helped him was spread, someone would definitely be suspicious.
As long as a caring person does a little investigation, he will find that he was not in Zhuniuji seventeen years ago, and Wei Xia would not have the chance to help him while he was still alive.
The value of ghost spirits is quite high, and both warriors and Qi refiners will be attracted by them.
If this matter really spreads, it will inevitably cause trouble.
With Chen Mo's strength, although he is not afraid of most people who want to seek more ghosts and spirits, he also doesn't want to sit around and take the initiative to cause a lot of trouble for himself.
"Ah!" Wei Dong was still confused and didn't react at all. What happened in front of him was beyond his expectation.
Chen Mo didn't say any more, giving them enough time to slowly accept the matter.
"Sir, has my sister really helped you?" Wei Dong was honest and honest, not a fool. He really couldn't figure out how his sister could help Chen Mo.
But if his sister hadn't helped him, then why did the other party suddenly come to look for him?
This really left Monk Zhang Er confused.
"Don't ask this again. Anyway, she helped me before, and I promised her to help her take care of her family." Chen Mo did not answer the question.
"Thank you, sir!" Mother Wei was the first to react and bowed in thanks.
Wei Qiu and Wei Dong also reacted quickly.
They didn't know what exactly Wei Xia had helped Chen Mo.
Let them understand that after seventeen years, their daughter and sister helped them again.
"You must not tell others what I mentioned today, no matter who it is.
If someone asks, just say you helped me before, and don’t say more if asked again. "Chen Mo explained carefully to Wei Dong and others.
"I understand, I will never tell anyone about this!" He nodded repeatedly.
Wei's mother and Wei Qiu also promised repeatedly that they would never tell anyone about this matter.
Upon seeing this, Chen Mo opened the door and called He Luoyun, "Go back and find someone to repair this room first, and then build a brick house here in the spring."
As Chen Mo said, he took out the banknotes from his arms. Naturally, He Luoyun didn't dare to take them. He only took the banknotes after Chen Mo said that one code should be returned to one code.
"Besides, since his man is working in your salt mine, you should help take care of him." Chen Mo pointed to Wei Qiudao again.
Her financial situation is slightly better off, but she can only afford enough food, otherwise she would not be able to help her brother even if she wants to.
"Hey, I'll tell my subordinates when I get back." He Luoyun agreed repeatedly.
After arranging these matters, Chen Mo took out two bags of broken silver that had been prepared. Each bag contained ten taels of broken silver and handed them to the two of them respectively.
"Keep this money, if you don't know how to start a small business, just keep it and spend it slowly."
"Sir, you have helped me a lot. I will never ask for this money again." Wei Dong refused in a deep voice without picking up the money bag.
"This silver is not mine, but was left in my hands by your eldest sister. Now I am just returning it to you." Chen Mo opened his mouth and threw the bag of silver to the two of them.
"Every month, I will transfer two taels of silver from my account to Wei Dong, so that he can take care of his mother at home with peace of mind." Chen Mo looked at He Luoyun again.
Two taels of silver is no longer a small amount. Even near Zhuniuji, a strong laborer can only get one, two, three or four coins after working for a month.
After doing these things, Chen Mo did not leave and was left in the village to entertain him.
Before leaving, Wei's mother gave him a package.
"Sir, my daughter had a miserable life. She fell to death in a well without even a body. You also live in Zhuniuji. I have some things. I hope you can help burn them for her."
As she said this, her cloudy eyes flashed with tears.
"Okay." Chen Mo accepted the package and agreed.
When we rode back to Zhuniuji, the sun had begun to set.
In winter, it always gets dark too early, as if urging people to go to bed early.
The cats and dogs that had been fed the divine liquid before were still functioning normally.
Even because their spiritual consciousness has been warmed up, they seem to be more alert than usual.
Back home, Chen Mo did not rush to find Wei Xia, but still carefully observed the cats and dogs who had been fed the nourishing liquid.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with them, Chen Mo walked into the practice room and took out the heart that he had previously hunted in the mirage.
Although it has escaped from the mirage, it is still jumping, but very slowly.
