Chapter 1057
In the narrow and dark room, Yechen sat on the bed with a haggard face, wearing a gray shirt with rough patches.
He raised his palm, trying to condense the power of the mysterious spirit on his fingertips, but in the end he failed.
After another round of sleep day and night, Yechen's condition is much better than before, and his brain is no longer dizzy and painful, but his memory is still very confused, and he can't remember exactly what the teacher asked him in that illusion. What did you say.
As for his body, he is still weak and weak, and he can move, but he can't even do the most basic act of condensing the power of the mysterious spirit...
Today's Yechen is like a patient with a low-grade fever. Although his limbs are intact, he still needs a period of time to recover completely.
With this in mind, Ye Chen sighed lightly.
"call……"
Gradually, the smell of firewood and food, as well as the noise of children came from beyond the curtain.
After hearing this, Yechen carefully got off the bed and landed on the ground, stooped through the eaves of the door which was only 1.8 meters long, and then came to the outside hall.
This place is not much bigger than Yechen's room, and the area is only over ten square meters. There is a fire pit in the middle that burns a suspended boiler, and a chimney that faces upward on the top. With a size of two or three square meters, combined with the sundries scattered here and there, the overall layout is simply shabby to the extreme...
And this is the whole picture of Daiger's house.
At this moment, the old man Daigman was cooking porridge by the fire pit, while the brothers and sisters Daigerik and Daigerian were helping to organize the bowls and spoons.
Seeing Yechen walking out by himself, the expressions of the three of them were suddenly stained with surprise.
"Oh, Uncle, it's great that you can get out of bed and walk around by yourself!"
"Now, Ryan finally doesn't need to use the floor..."
Hearing this, Ye Chen looked at the pile of rough cloth carpets on the ground next to him, and immediately felt very sorry. Instead, he stepped forward and touched the children's heads, and sincerely apologized:
"Sorry, I took your room."
However, at the same time, his palm secretly and carefully felt the bodies of the Daige brothers and sisters through this act of physical contact, and he did not notice any extraordinary energy flow from it.
Through these simple and subtle actions, Yechen came to the conclusion that the two children were ordinary people just like his grandfather, and thus concluded that they did not pose any threat to him...
Daigman on the other side then laughed and sighed:
"Oh, it's okay! They've all suffered, the key is that you can rest well. Come on, Yechen, you must be hungry after lying on the bed for so long. I'll show you the porridge I just cooked. Serve a bowl!"
While talking, Daigman served Yechen a bowl of steaming porridge, which was self-evident.
Ye Chen accepted Daigman's kindness, looked at the simple white porridge in the bowl with clear rice grains, floating vegetable leaves, and finely minced meat, and then turned to look at the silent siblings beside him.
Afterwards, he handed the porridge to the children, and then politely refused to Daigman:
"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm not very hungry, so let's give these foods to the children, after all, they are still growing."
Seeing this, Daigman nodded with a disappointed expression.
"Okay, okay, it's all up to you..."
However, immediately afterward, Daigerek next to him spoke loudly:
"Uncle, you can just eat, we have nothing to do with it!"
Dagrian pursed his lips and muttered:
"That's right, that's right, grandpa said, this is something to keep you, we will be beaten if we eat it..."
Dagerek glared at his sister in surprise and anger.
"Hey, why did you suddenly tell us about our plan? You clearly promised to keep it a secret!"
Seeing the quarrel between the siblings, Yechen fell silent, turned to look at Daigman, who sighed with embarrassment.
"Oh, that's all, young man, let me tell you clearly. In fact, we brought you back and took you in because we had selfish intentions..."
Daigman confessed to Ye Chen helplessly:
"These two children have no parents since they were young, and now I am the only old man with them, living in this dark slum all year round."
"I am old and weak, and my income is limited. It is difficult to barely maintain food and housing, let alone provide these two children with schooling. Life has always been very difficult, and I am often bullied because of poverty."
"It doesn't matter to me as a bad old man, but I really don't want to suffer these two children, I'm sorry for their parents..."
Speaking of this, Daigman's eye sockets were already wet and red, and his appearance seemed so helpless and sad to Yechen.
"But...but...if you are willing to live with us, then this family will have one more young man, the pressure will naturally be greatly relieved, and our life will be much easier..."
"This is my true thought and wish..."
"So... Yechen... your origin, I won't ask too much..."
"But, please..."
"For the sake of us helping you, stay here!"
"After all, it's too difficult for this family and these two children to turn around with me alone..."
Facing Daigman's crying plea, Yechen was silent for a moment with a heavy expression, and then gave his answer solemnly.
"Mr. Daigman, first of all, I really want to thank you for your help. Naturally, I will never forget this kindness."
"But, I'm sorry, I have important business to do, so I really can't stay here for a long time."
"If my belongings are not damaged, then I will return you a lot of money."
"Unfortunately, I am penniless now..."
"However, I will still try to repay your kindness in other ways."
After hearing Yechen's firm response, Daigman lowered his head with mixed emotions, disappointment and reassurance mixed in his old eyes.
The Daige brothers and sisters on the side couldn't hide their disappointment, they looked at Yechen pitifully, but they didn't know what to say.
To put it bluntly, their family is just a group of old, weak, sick and disabled, and there is no other way to keep Yechen except favors, so it is natural for the latter to decide whether to leave or stay.
However, Yechen has always been soft-spoken and soft-hearted, so he naturally didn't want to see the whole Daige family frustrated, so he added later:
"Don't worry, I will stay here for a while now, and I will never leave alone until I fully return your favor."
Hearing Yechen's promise, the Daige family regained their spirits a little bit, the eyes of the two children were bright again, and the old man thanked them with gratitude.
"Thank you... thank you for your generosity and understanding..."
Ye Chen smiled kindly, looked at the Daige brothers and sisters, and greeted them kindly:
"Come on, hurry up and eat your porridge while it's hot."
When the children heard this, they dared to move the spoon carefully and began to enjoy the steaming hot porridge.
Seeing the pitiful appearance of the children, Ye Chen felt a deeper sense of strangeness in his heart.
After all, the Holy Light Pure Land he lives in can be said to be a prosperous and humane society. Poor families are fully eligible to apply for the church's living support and compulsory education. In the house, I endure such a poor life with so little money and no books...
Thinking of this, Yechen's expression became a little heavy again, and then he slowly sat beside Daigman, and once again launched his own series of "examinations" on the current situation.
Chapter 1058 Weird situation
According to the current situation, Ye Chen started a simple question and answer session with Daigman.
"Mr. Daigman, how long have I been in your house?"
"You have been in a coma for three days and two nights, including today is the fourth day."
"Have you never heard of hunting groups and churches?"
"No, young man, I really don't understand what you're talking about..."
"Are you completely unaware of the external situation outside of 'Niedu'?"
"Yes, our city has always been a self-sufficient tradition. It can be said that it is completely closed from the outside world..."
"Hasn't anyone even tried to explore far away?"
"No, never, because the mountains and forests around Niedu are too complicated, even if you go, you will just get lost in it, and then return to the gate of Niedu in a daze..."
"Then, after all, there must be a ruler in charge of your city?"
"Well, that's true, it's our mayor."
"What's the mayor's name?"
"I don't know, we untouchables are not qualified to inquire about these things, and I have never heard it mentioned by others, and I don't even know what the mayor looks like..."
After hearing this, Ye Chen frowned involuntarily, and then asked Daigman:
"Well, Mr. Daigman, have you ever heard of..."
"The name of the butcher hunter?"
"Or maybe it's the name Jetiskoki?"
When Daigman heard this, his expression froze for an instant.
"..."
However, after a few seconds of silence, his eyes were filled with blankness again, and then he submitted a negative answer to Yechen.
"No, I'm sorry, I've never heard of this... But the mayor must be more knowledgeable than us poor people, maybe he can help you."
Ye Chen had exactly this intention in his heart.
"Where do I go to find the mayor?"
Daigman replied with some embarrassment on his face:
"The upper city of Neidu is also the city center."
"It's just that the place is strictly guarded by guards, and ordinary citizens have no qualifications to enter, let alone us poor people living in slums..."
"If you trespass without authorization, you may even be shot dead by the guards, so it is an extremely dangerous area for us."
However, Ye Chen seemed very calm about this.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you know this is enough, how do I get to that place? Is there any special building that can be used as a pointer?"
Daigman hesitated for a while, then gave an answer:
"In the center of Niedu stands the only big clock tower in the city."
"That building is so tall that it can be easily seen from any corner of the city. As long as you follow the direction of the clock tower, you will eventually reach the mayor's site..."
"But, Yechen, it's really dangerous there. Your body has just recovered, so there's no need to go now."
Ye Chen nodded and replied:
"Well, I just wanted to know in advance. If you really want to go to the mayor, you should wait until your body recovers better before it's safer."
"However, it's really embarrassing to continue living here for free. Now that I'm awake, let me share some of the financial pressure for you."
"Mr. Daigman, can you introduce a place where I can work and earn money, and also let me walk around and exercise my body."
Hearing Yechen's question, Daigman immediately regained his spirits.
"Oh, of course, of course!"
"I happen to be going to work on a construction site in the outskirts of the city later, if it's convenient for you, you can come with me!"
"It's just...you can just get out of bed and walk around now, and it's also inappropriate to do these rough and heavy jobs all at once."
Ye Chen smiled.
"It's okay, these jobs don't put much pressure on me."
Daigman nodded his head with a dubious expression.
"By the way, when it comes to making money..."
Yechen suddenly thought of something, and then asked Daigman:
"Mr. Daigman, I want to see what your currency looks like, can I?"
Daigman was stunned for a moment, then nodded repeatedly, turned and walked towards an inconspicuous cabinet, took out a few copper coins from it, and handed them carefully to Yechen.
Looking at the shape of the copper coin in his hand, Yechen's eyes changed suddenly.
Although the surface of the copper coin has been severely worn, Yechen can still see a mottled four-pointed star in the center!
And this is the most iconic symbol of Holy Light Currency!
