Chapter 395: Rescue of Refugees
With the help of the land god, Ning Luo and his group quickly found a resettlement site for refugees.
"The government officials are here!"
"So many officials!"
When the refugees saw a large number of people in official uniforms coming here, they did not move forward with joy, but instinctively shrank back in fear.
Several young men were protecting a group of women and children with sticks.
The elderly and frail people knelt down and begged for mercy, kowtowing repeatedly.
"Sir, please don't hit us. We didn't go to the official road to block the road and file a complaint!"
"Sir, we dare not go north anymore!"
"Sir, we are definitely not going to Kyoto!"
"Sir, we only dig wild vegetables and eat leaves to fill our stomachs. We will never cause any trouble to you."
"..."
The postmaster shouted, "All of you kneel down and kowtow, the Regent is here in person!"
Upon hearing that the Regent had arrived, the refugees became even more frightened and subconsciously wanted to escape. The children cried for their parents.
"Sir, please don't arrest us. We didn't know the Regent would come here. Let's get out of the way now."
"Fellow villagers, don't be afraid. The regent is here to distribute food to you, not to punish you."
Ning Luo announced loudly, and his voice turned into wind, penetrating an area of ten miles in radius.
As he spoke, he dismounted from his horse and walked in front of him, leading the little fairy boy.
The God of Land was also there, "Fellow villagers, the Regent is compassionate and loves the people. He rushed here all night to see you. Don't run away."
The refugees were skeptical when they heard this, but they all stopped.
Seeing that the official uniforms of the sword-carrying guards were different from those worn by the yamen runners he had seen in the past hundred days, he felt a little relieved.
Li Yi got off the carriage and Xie Zhan walked forward with a lantern to illuminate him.
Seeing the refugees in tattered clothes and frightened faces, I naturally felt compassion.
"Don't be afraid, everyone. I was ordered by the emperor to go to the southwest to deal with the locust plague. I passed by here on the way and heard that there were refugees heading north to live here. I came to see you. The old, weak, sick and disabled and the young and strong will be divided into two teams. I will immediately distribute dry food to you according to the number of people."
Under the light, the young regent was handsome and elegant, with a voice as gentle and kind as a bell. The refugees immediately put aside their worries and kowtowed to express their gratitude.
Afterwards, under the command of several elders, they spontaneously divided into two teams.
Ning Luo added, "If anyone is sick, please stand in another group. I am Doctor Ning from Kyoto. I am also ordered to go to the southwest with the Regent to provide disaster relief. I brought a lot of herbs with me. I can give you acupuncture and medicine right here."
After hearing this, the refugees were even more ecstatic, and kept thanking the emperor for his grace and the regent for his kindness.
The sick were divided into another team, including the elderly, the weak, the disabled and pregnant women.
Li Yi ordered the guards to unload dry food from the car and give each person two rice cakes.
The hungry refugees took the pancakes and immediately started to devour them voraciously.
Worried that they would eat too much, Ning Luo took out a few buckets of water from the space and ordered the guards to distribute the water to the refugees.
The guards were shocked to see the water appear out of thin air, but they didn't dare show it. After seeing such a miraculous thing today, they all secretly guessed that this miracle doctor was an immortal who had descended to earth, and they were very awed.
Li Yi specifically selected a few honest questions.
"When were you sent here by the government? Have you been punished?"
"We were driven here early this morning. The county government officials and the soldiers from the city defense camp came to drive us away. They beat and scolded us at every turn. Those who resisted or spoke out were beaten to death."
"Your Highness, even though our lives are worthless, we are all born by our parents. We don't want to abandon our homes and come here to beg for a living. We really can't survive any longer..."
"Didn't the county government open its warehouses to provide disaster relief?"
"The government's reserve granaries have all had their grain sold to rice merchants privately. There is no surplus grain at all. In order to conceal the secret sale of grain, they even set fire to the granaries, completely destroying them. It's difficult for us to find evidence."
"What's even more hateful is that we had a flood last year, and they embezzled all the relief grain and silver that the court received after they reported it. Therefore, they deliberately concealed the locust plague this year for two months. If the people had not fled from hunger, they would not have let the court know. It's a pity that countless of our elders and brothers starved to death, while their officials have rice merchants to provide wine and meat as bribes, so they have no worries about food and clothing..."
Li Yi listened with a heavy heart.
Although as the Earth God said, these refugees were all transformed from plants and trees into human beings, if the officials do not have benevolence, justice and morality, how can they educate the people to become good citizens?
"You can stay in Nan County and rest assured. I will call the county magistrate to confront you. If the Nan County government is indeed tyrannical against the people, I will give you justice and relocate you to another place, allocating land for you to reclaim and settle down."
Upon hearing this, the refugees burst into tears of gratitude and kowtowed repeatedly to express their gratitude.
Li Yi inquired about the people's sentiments and ordered the guards to go to the county town to capture the county magistrate for questioning. Ning Luo brought the land god and the fairy boy to diagnose and prescribe medicine for the patients.
Because the patients were given spring water from the space in advance, the symptoms of most of the patients had been alleviated a lot. After eating two large pancakes, they thought they had a full meal and their spirits improved.
Ning Luo did not use magic anymore, but simply classified the medicines according to the different causes of the diseases, boiled a large pot of medicine soup and distributed it to the patients.
For those who have wounds, teach them to identify herbs and apply medicine to heal themselves.
After more than an hour of work, I finished seeing all the patients.
She found a quiet place and sat down to rest. She saw Li Yi still visiting the people in person to investigate their sentiments. She looked very happy and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
He really is someone who recites Buddhist scriptures and chants Buddha's name, and has a compassionate heart.
The God of Land stepped forward and fanned Ning Luo, saying with a smile: "You two nobles have done a great good deed today. You will surely accumulate a lot of merit in this life."
Ning Luo had already accomplished a lot in his previous life, so he didn't care about these things. Instead, he asked him, "What did you say to the Regent King in his sedan chair just now?"
"I didn't say anything. He was originally the White Emperor Immortal who came down to earth to experience tribulations, but he didn't bring magical powers like you, fairy. He couldn't tell where you and I came from."
Ning Luo's face lit up with joy. "He is the White Emperor Immortal Lord who has descended to the mortal world? Do you have any proof?"
In her previous life, she knew that Xiao Ding's soul was the Immortal Lord Baidi. At this time, the God of Land once again verified her guess that Li Yi was the reincarnation of Xiao Ding.
"Why do I need proof? On the day I ascended to heaven, I saw the White Emperor Immortal Lord from afar. He is the most handsome man in heaven, and one can never forget him once he has seen him." The Earth God also said, "You two have some connection."
Ning Luo chuckled, "More than a little."
Then he asked the God of Land, "Do you know when he came to this world?"
"It looks like his soul has returned to the mortal body and he has been here for a short time. Perhaps his soul was damaged, so he didn't bring his spells and memories with him."
After the God of Land finished speaking, he noticed someone quietly approaching and eavesdropping on their conversation. He looked up and was shocked.
"Oh my god, why did you arrange for another immortal to come down to earth? What kind of shit luck do I have today!"
He muttered as he knelt down with the fairy boy.
"I have met you, my Lord."
Li Xuan didn't expect that he was discovered, but he didn't hear what they said just now.
Because when talking about this topic, Ning Luo had secretly set up a barrier, outsiders could only see them talking but could not hear what was said.
"No courtesy, get up."
Li Xuan didn't bother to look at the woodcutter, and just said to Ning Luo with a thick face: "Doctor Luo, I am worried that it is not safe for you to travel at night, so I came here to escort you."
"Don't worry, King Liang. We are very safe." Ning Luo felt annoyed when she saw him.
Like taffy.
I suspect he has also learned the secret recently, otherwise he wouldn't be so stubborn.
It seems that she has to completely resolve the entanglement between her and Xuan Ling in this life.
Why not arrange a marriage for him so that he will give up?
