Perhaps there was once a concealing array formation here. After the earthquake, everything leaked out. The pavilions inside were all burned to the ground, and only broken walls could be vaguely seen.
Ah Yu originally wanted to go over and save the people, but she realized that although there were many casualties there, many people still had the strength to help others. They had even collected many herbs and tools and were in a hurry to save the people.
Ah Yu did not want to add to the trouble, so she saved the people in the periphery and studied the Nine Dragon Treasure Cauldron to ensure that there would be no more major earthquakes. She found a flat place in the valley and settled down another group of people.
She had saved about a hundred people, and there were more than ten outside the valley.
After saving them, she only left behind a small portion of food. She also asked a few people who still had energy to go to a village not far away and bring the people from the village over. Then, they moved out the livestock that had died in the earthquake and let them distribute the livestock meat for the time being.
As for the other supplies, someone would come.
[Kid, if you let those people whose livestock died contribute, you have to leave something for them.]
Meatbail reminded her.
At first, Ah Yu was puzzled. Back then, when the avalanche came down on the village, the entire village came together and offered help to each other, even if they had been suffering from the snow disaster for a long time.
However, on second thought, she understood that not everyone was like the villagers from Hu Family Village.
Moreover, she was an outsider. So what if she had saved their lives? When she left, there would always be people who would feel unbalanced.
She thought for a moment and called those people aside, leaving them an inconspicuous-looking small token. It was a pouch that Second Aunt, Madam Ma, had embroidered for her family. On it were their nicknames and unique patterns.
Ah Yu’s was naturally the most exquisite and beautiful. However, Madam Ma had asked All Yu to use these small purses as gifts. The material was medium-grade, and those with a little wealth would not care much.
It was very suitable to use this as a token. When others saw it, they would not be driven into a corner and steal it.
She told those people that if they encountered any difficulties in the future, they could go to any Wang Family Steamed Bun Shop with golden plaques and exchange for help with the token.
Ah Yu had learned this move from Zhang Zhan back then.
For poor families, all their difficulties were about money. With a little money, they could live.
Those people were grateful to Ah Yu and did not think too much about it. They accepted the items.
Ah Yu left her signal along the way and rushed to the next place to save people.
By the time King Xiaoyao brought people and supplies over and found Ah Yu, ten days had passed.
Although the other places along the way were not as dangerous as the center of the earthquake, there were still casualties. As a prince, King Xiaoyao naturally had to think for the people, so he was delayed for a few days.
Ah Yu had already lived in Yue City for ten days.
Inside and outside Yue City, there were burn marks everywhere. The ground was covered in withered branches and leaves, and the injured people lay on it and wailed.
Not far away, a row of porridge sheds had been built. Behind the porridge shed was a row of medical sheds. The strong smell of herbs came from them.
Ah Yu was in one of the herb sheds.
“Lord, someone is looking for you outside!” A person dressed as a bailiff hurriedly ran into the medicinal shed and reported.
Ah Yu threw the medicinal ingredients in her hand into the pot and said to the person beside her, “Please watch the fire. It can be scooped out in another 35 minutes. Don’t pour the medicinal dregs away. Leave them for me to take a look later.”
“Alright, don’t worry, my Lord.”
Only then did All Yu wipe her hands and walk out.
She thought that the people who came must be Uncle Ah Shu and the others. After all, they had discussed it previously. They should have arrived after so many days.
Unexpectedly, the people waiting outside were not King Xiaoyao and the others.
Ah Yu walked out and saw a tall person talking warmly to the person beside her.
Ah Yu’s eyes widened, and she couldn’t help but speed up. Then, she sped up and ran over.
“Big Brother!” Ah Yu pounced into the arms of the person.
When Wang Dalang heard Ah Yu’s voice, he turned around and hugged her.
Wang Dalang was also excited. He raised All Yu’s head and looked at her a few times. He frowned. “Why did you lose so much weight!”
“Aiya, when girls reach my age, they should lose weight. It won’t matter.” All Yu shook her head obediently.
Only then did Wang Dalang let go of All Yu and push her away.
Little Sister Ah Yu had grown up. It was not appropriate to hug her like this.
However, Wang Dalang was very happy. Ah Yu had been the least close to him when she was young. The other Big Brothers had taken blame for her and carried her before, and All Yu was also intimate with them. Only she seemed to be separated from him, making Wang Dalang feel strange.
Now that he saw his sister so close to him, his heart warmed.
“Big Brother, why are you here?”
Wang Dalang said, “We were originally transporting a batch of food to Woye County. We have a granary here. On the way, we heard that there was an earthquake here, so we wanted to donate the food to the government. After working there for a few days, we heard that there was a Lord Wang here, a little girl in her teens. I guessed that it was you, so I came over to take a look.”
What he did not say was that he had already been busy for a few days and nights and was so tired that his eyelids were drooping. However, when he heard the news that it was suspected to be Ah Yu, he did not even bother to eat and rode over.
He even fell on the way and broke his bones. He casually straightened his bones and continued rushing over.
He thought that Ah Yu had never suffered so much since she was young. He did not know if there was anyone taking care of her or if she was injured. As he thought about it, he couldn’t care less about himself.
Fortunately, from the looks of it, although his sister looked a little tired, she was very energetic.
Only then did he feel relieved.
“You came here. Have you sent a letter to the family? Don’t let Grandma and the others worry.” As Wang Dalang spoke, he wanted to give All Yu the candy he had brought with him. However, before he could finish speaking, he fell silent.
Ah Yu took a look and saw that her eldest brother was actually still holding the candy and had fallen asleep standing up. However, there was no longer any anxiety on his face.
Ah Yu’s eyes immediately warmed..
