The billionaire girl: Daddy and Mommy, love me again

He was just a fifth-rank captain, assigned 500 men and horses, in charge of Cangwu Town under Pingyang County. After receiving the order from the general, he led his men and horses straight to the destination without stopping.

When he stopped to rest on the way, he met an old Taoist priest who was talking in a mysterious way. He was an atheist and didn't want to pay any attention to him. However, the old Taoist priest calculated his life word for word, even figured out that he had a crush on the daughter of the village chief.

"When you go to Cangwu Town, you must stick to your original intentions, so that you and the people can find a glimmer of hope for survival."

"What does it mean to stick to one's original intention? Where is the chance of survival? Please tell me clearly, Master!"

"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed. General, just speak from your heart. When the time comes, vitality will emerge."

After saying that, the old Taoist staggered away holding the wine gourd. When he came to his senses and wanted to chase him, he found that he could not catch up with him no matter how hard he tried. The old Taoist's figure disappeared on the spacious official road in the blink of an eye.

The accompanying soldiers were all amazed when they saw this scene.

During the time I stayed in Cangwu Town, news from the outside world started to come in. There were no less than a hundred towns and villages under the jurisdiction of Yinzhou County, and the people in many of them had lost their lives when the flood occurred. The situation in Pingyang County was better than that in other western counties. I don't know where they got the news from, but half of the people had already evacuated two days before the flood.

In the neighboring Lanling County, only one in ten people survived the flood. Coupled with the plague that followed the flood, Lanling County had completely turned into a dead city, and the few remaining people were killed by the soldiers.

In the valley where Chengjia Village is located, there was an uproar with the return of Cheng Zeli and others.

Everyone gathered on the rocky beach. Many of them had red faces and veins popped out on their foreheads. They were arguing about something.

"Let me go. You were the ones who went down the mountain last time. This time it should be my turn."

"And me, I'll go too. I'm in good health and have never had a cold since I was a child!"

"Stop talking, I've already had the plague once, I'm sure I won't be infected again this time!"

"I go!"

"I go!"

"......"

"Stop right there! Do you know what it means to go down the mountain? You are all rushing to get there as if you can pick up gold by going down the mountain!"

Cheng Dafu looked at this group of ignorant young men who were vying for their lives and became so angry that his face turned purple. He glared at them, his eyebrows and beard trembling. He raised his walking stick high in the air and brought it down on their buttocks as lightly as if he was patting dust off their clothes.

"What should we do, Village Chief? We can't just stand by and watch them die. Besides, maybe everyone's relatives are still in Cangwu Town!"

"Yes, village chief, let us go!"

"Let me go, village chief!"

"........."

"village head........!"

“Old man…!”

A group of women from Chengjia Village, led by Mrs. Xie, were supporting each other, looking at him with tears in their eyes and wanting to say something but stopping themselves. Although they did not beg him, silence was better than words at this moment. Their loved ones were still missing, and they did not know whether they were dead or alive. They were the group of people who most wanted to get down the mountain.

But their roots are here, and they are concerned about their natal families, and at the same time they are afraid that their husbands and children and grandchildren will get into danger when they go down the mountain. They cannot afford any loss on either side.

"We have to save people, but we need to discuss how to do it. Don't be anxious. Even if we go down the mountain now, what can we do? We don't know how to treat illnesses, so we will only die if we go, and we may even kill everyone in Chengjia Village."

Cheng Zeli squeezed in from the crowd and stood next to Cheng Dafu.

"Yeah, what can we do down the mountain?"

The villagers calmed down a little after hearing Cheng Zeli's words, but then began to get angry again because they couldn't help.

"I have a way for everyone to help without having to go down the mountain, and at the same time avoid risks!"

Cheng Zeli's words were like a beam of light, shining into the bottomless abyss, making the originally dim eyes suddenly brighten, gradually emitting light, and revealing an undisguised excitement in his eyes, like a blazing flame, revealing a ray of burning hope.

"What's the solution? Tell me now!"

Hundreds of eyes brighter than the sunset suddenly looked at him. Even Cheng Zeli, who had seen countless big scenes, couldn't help but swallow nervously.

"We can roll the medicine into pills. There must be a shortage of medicinal materials and doctors at the foot of the mountain. We can roll the medicine into pills directly, which will be convenient for them and ourselves."

"This is a good idea, but where can we get so many herbs?"

"Don't worry about this, everyone, go wash your hands, and you can make pills after the powder is mixed out."

Everyone looked at each other, unable to understand how they could make such a large number of pills without even a single medicinal ingredient.

“Okay, you don’t have to worry about the medicinal herbs, but there is one thing I need to emphasize to everyone. No matter what you see, hear, or know, you must remember to keep your mouth shut.

Everyone just needs to believe that we are a family after all, and everything we do is only for the betterment of all the people in Chengjia Village. If I find out that anyone is talking nonsense outside, don't blame me for being merciless and pulling out their tongues, cutting off their hands and feet, and expelling them from Chengjia Village."

Cheng Dafu's threats and intimidation successfully frightened everyone, and soon the crowd began to curse and swear.

"I, Zhao Guihua, swear that I will never betray Chengjia Village in this life. If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning, have sores on my head, and pus on my feet. I will die a miserable death!"

"I, Cheng Ergou, swear here that I will never betray Chengjia Village in this life. If I break this oath, I will live in poverty and poverty for the rest of my life, suffering from a myriad of diseases, and my life will be worse than death!"

"I, Cheng Daniu, swear that I will never betray Cheng Village in this life. If I break this oath, I will never be reincarnated in my next life..."

"I, Cheng Zezhong, swear......"

"I, Zhang Xiulan, swear.............."

"........"

Only after seeing everyone swearing to the sky did Cheng Dafu slowly raise his head and raise his hand to point to the sky.

"I, Cheng Dafu, swear here today that I will never betray Chengjia Village in this life. If I break this oath, my wife and children will be separated, and I will be plagued by misfortune and die a bad death. After I die, my body will be exposed in the wilderness and eaten by vicious dogs. I will fall into the eighteen levels of hell and be reborn as an animal for generations to come. I will never die a good death!"

Boom——

As Cheng Dafu's oath came to an end, a loud thunder sounded out of nowhere, and invisible shackles seemed to be tied out from everyone's body, twisted together, and reached the sky.

Everyone gasped. Their oath was witnessed by heaven. Anyone who broke their oath would be severely punished by heaven.

"Okay, now that the powder has not been pounded out, let's go cut some trees and make pill-rolling boards. This way we can roll the pills faster."

"Okay, let's go chop down trees now before it gets dark!"

After he finished speaking, dozens of strong men walked out of the crowd, holding axes and went up the mountain.

Cheng Zeli returned to his own cave, where more than a dozen buckets of fine medicinal powder had been placed. Li was teaching Liu and others how to make honey, while Zhang was mixing the refined honey with the medicinal powder. Many people were learning nearby, and Zheng was kneading and beating the medicinal mud, and a number of finished pills had already been made.
