Under the leadership of the official, Yan Ruoli and others came to a house at the back of the village.

This house is similar to other houses in the village, very dilapidated.

It was already dark and the room was dark.

The officer almost lit up the torch and illuminated the room. Only then did Yan Ruoli see clearly that there was an old man lying on a shabby wooden bed in the room.

The old man was about sixty years old, with a haggard appearance and a thin body.Feeling the light of the fire, he weakly opened his eyelids and glanced at them.

He didn't say anything and quickly closed his eyes again, probably because he didn't have the strength to speak.

Yan Ruoli stepped forward to check him and said, "He is mainly malnourished and hungry. We need to get him something to eat quickly."

You Yong immediately ordered the officer: "Did you hear that? Hurry and get something to eat."

"Yes."

The officer put the torch in the house and left to find something to eat.

Yan Ruoli said to You Yong: "Master You, go and do your work. He has no strength right now and can't answer your questions. Let's ask him again after he eats something and recovers."

You Yong knew that she was trying to avoid him.Yan Shen heals diseases, but sometimes he doesn't like others watching.

So he immediately said, "Okay, I'll go see how they're doing with their food."

With that, he exited the house and went to the front.

Only Yan Ruoli and Ye Weiyun were left in the house.

Yan Ruoli immediately took out the injection and injected nutrient solution into the old man on the bed.The old man's body is too weak, and I'm afraid he won't be able to survive without some nutritional solution.

The reason why she pushed You Yong away was because she didn't want him to see the infusion equipment.

In Changning County, as a last resort, she provided syringes for doctors to give patients intramuscular injections.

Afterwards, she took back as much of the used stuff as possible.

Nowadays, if possible, it is best to avoid letting people see these things that are not of this world.

The old man felt a sting on his arm, but he ignored it.He is about to die, and it doesn't matter what others want to do to him.

What surprised him was that after that sting, his strength began to slowly recover.

Recovery was slow, but he could feel it.

He had difficulty opening his eyes before, but now, he can open them easily.

He saw a woman as beautiful as a fairy in the sky standing in front of the bed, and he murmured: "Fairy."

The gods in the sky must have taken pity on him and came to save him.

Yan Ruoli said: "You are still very weak now, so lie down and rest first. Don't worry, I will cure you."

Her words are gentle but very powerful, making people willing to listen.

The old man closed his eyes and rested as he was told.

Yan Ruoli took out a candle and lit it instead of the torch.The smoke from the torches was too strong and choking.

After the transfusion was completed, the porridge at the officer's side was also cooked. You Yong had someone bring a bowl and feed it to the old man.

The old man sat up with the help of the official and leaned against the bed.His hands didn't have much strength, so he had to have the officials feed him the porridge one bite at a time.

You Yong once again felt the magic of Yan Ruoli. Not long after he left, the old man's spirit was obviously better than before.

After the old man finished a bowl of porridge, Yan Ruoli said, "Eat these first. He hasn't eaten for too long and his stomach is weak. He can't eat too much at once."

The old man regained his energy and said with tears of gratitude: "Thank you, thank you fairy for saving my life."

"I am not a fairy, my surname is Yan, and I am a doctor."

Yan Ruoli corrected him and then asked: "Old man, where are the people in your village? Why are they all gone? Why are you the only one left?"

Although there was no one in the village, there was no sign of disorder. It should be that the villagers left voluntarily rather than something bad happened to them.

The old man sighed: "They have all fled. I am a lonely old man with no children. I can't walk and I don't want to escape. I have reached the damn age, and the fallen leaves are all returning to their roots. I will not go anywhere, just If you want to die here, forget it."

"flee from famine?"

"Yes, last year's crop harvest was not good, and many people had to eat wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger. This year we encountered floods again, and mudslides washed away the land and wiped out a nearby village. If we don't flee the famine, we won't be able to survive."

The old man sighed repeatedly.

Yan Ruoli recalled that this journey was indeed quite deserted.

"Where did they flee to?"

"I don't know. Some people go to the nearest county, Changning County, and some people go further, probably to the north."

It seems that the old man still doesn't know about the plague in Changning County.

Among those who died due to the plague, I don’t know if there were any members of his village.

"Last year's harvest was not good. Didn't the government help you?" Ye Weiyun asked.

The old man smiled bitterly and said: "The government? How can the government take care of people like us? In my life, I have only seen the government collect taxes, but I have never seen the government help us."

Ye Weiyun remained silent. He had actually expected this to happen.

You Yong's straight back could not help but bend a little, and the official authority that had not been shown yet restrained.

Somehow, hearing the old man's words, he suddenly felt ashamed.

He knew that people's lives were difficult, but he had never seen with his own eyes what kind of poverty they were in, so he had no personal experience.

Thinking that the government was supported by such people, he felt ashamed. The clothes on his body seemed to be too bright and dazzling.

Yan Ruoli asked the old man to have a good rest and left the house.

She and Ye Weiyun walked side by side in the village.

This village that had been silent for a long time finally seemed to come to life tonight. It was very lively, but this liveliness made people feel heartbroken.

After tonight, the village should return to silence.

Its owners don't know when they will return.

You Yong made an exception tonight and took the initiative to challenge Shi Xuan: "Dog bandit, do you dare to fight me?"

Shi Xuan looked at him strangely.This bad official always avoids him and tries his best to avoid fighting with him. Why is he so crazy tonight?

"Aren't you afraid of being beaten by me?" Shi Xuan asked in a mocking tone.

You Yong patted his chest and said, "Am I afraid? If you want to beat me, go ahead and frown. I'm not a man."

Shi Xuan then raised his stick and said, "Okay, there is an open space over there in the village, let's go there."

A quarter of an hour later, Shi Xuan dragged his stick and tried to escape, but was tightly entangled by You Yong.

"Don't run away. Fight again. Fight again. Are you afraid?"

Shi Xuan looked at You Yong, who was holding on to him with a bruised nose and swollen face, and said angrily: "You are really crazy. If you want to die, don't come to me. There is a rock over there, do you see it? Just go and kill yourself."

Tonight, You Yong was like a mad dog, biting and thrashing around.

Although he was not afraid of him, he was very tired of being pestered like this.

You Yong pointed at Shi Xuan and laughed: "Dog bandit, are you afraid? Don't you dare to fight grandpa? You coward."

With that said, he rushed over again.
