Rebirth: Infinite Train

Chapter 203 Return to Cloud City

"Behind me are the officials of Yuncheng. If you have any instructions in the future, just tell us. I hope you can lend a hand and save the people here from the dire situation!"

Granny Qi suppressed her impatience, put on a forced smile on her face, and spoke slowly.

"Sir Wang, we in the Qingming Sect have always believed in saving people from suffering.

The reason I came here this time was because I heard that the people of Yuncheng were suffering, and I felt very sorry for them.

We will follow the teachings and do our best to rescue more refugees. "

Upon hearing this, Lord Wang was overjoyed, tears welled up in his eyes, and he spoke excitedly.

"Granny Qi, you are all noble and righteous men. It is a blessing for Yuncheng and the people to have your help!"

He paused, then continued, "I have prepared a place for you to stay. I hope you will not mind."

Granny Qi and others followed him to the residence that had been prepared long ago.

This is a large courtyard with three entrances.

As Grandma Qi and others stepped into the courtyard, they saw servants holding lanterns. The dim light swayed in the rain, reflecting the surrounding quaint buildings.

The vermilion gate, carved window frames and bluestone paths appear even more quaint and elegant after being washed by the rain.

Walking into the main hall, what catches your eye is a set of valuable sandalwood tables and chairs, with exquisite porcelain placed on the tables.

Famous calligraphy and paintings are hung on the walls, demonstrating the heritage of the aristocratic family.

Walking further in, through the corridor, we came to the backyard. We saw the rockery scattered in an orderly manner, the lotus leaves in the pond, and the raindrops rippling on the water.

The room is fully furnished with a large carved bed, brocade bedding, and an exquisite dressing table.

Lin Yaoyao looked at all this secretly, and knew in his heart that this was obviously not an idle yard, but should have been specially vacated for them.

Those slaves were also well-behaved and polite, and they knew when to act and when to retreat, and they didn't look like the kind that were trained temporarily.

Before leaving, Lord Wang sternly admonished his servants: "Listen carefully, you must serve Granny Qi and the others well, and don't be negligent in the slightest.

If I find out who is not doing their best, I will not let them off easily!" After saying this, he left carefully.

After Lin Yaoyao and others were served a comfortable hot bath, they each chose a room to rest.

Lin Yaoyao walked into the room, lay on the soft bed, with a thousand thoughts in her mind.

It's not that she didn't notice the concerns of Grandma Qi and the others, but she didn't know where the problem lay.

During this period, she sometimes realized that her emotions were fluctuating too much.

When did it start?

She doesn't know either.

Lin Yaoyao suppressed the uneasiness in her heart.

She took out a bathtub, and the medicinal bath inside was emitting hot steam.

She took off her clothes, entered the potion, and closed her eyes to train her body.

The next morning, the sky was still shrouded in haze, so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip from it.

Dense and large raindrops hit the ground with a crackling sound, splashing water and making the already wet ground even more muddy.

Lin Yaoyao and his group did not focus their attention on the people in the city, but asked Lord Wang to take them out of the city.

When they arrived above Yuncheng yesterday, they found that many refugees gathered outside Yuncheng.

Among the refugees who survived the natural disaster in this land, some, like the people in Daling Village, went to the top of the mountain to seek a glimmer of hope, while others came to the outside of Yuncheng with hope.

However, Yuncheng was just an isolated island at this time.

The people in the city were trapped and unable to escape, while people outside the city also found it difficult to enter.

The limited food resources were barely enough to sustain the livelihood of the city's residents, making it difficult for them to survive.

But even so, those people guarding outside Yuncheng were still reluctant to leave.

They seemed to regard this isolated city as their last straw and held on to it tightly, refusing to let go.

Looking around, almost all the roads were submerged by the raging flood.

As early as when they chose to go to Yuncheng, they had already fallen into a desperate situation with no way out.

They built extremely simple thatched huts outside the city as temporary shelter.

However, such a crude thatched hut could not provide effective shelter in the pouring rain.

It was raining heavily outside and drizzling inside, and there was no dry place at all.

The whole environment was filled with a damp atmosphere, which made people feel depressing.

Under such harsh conditions, they couldn't even use dry firewood, let alone drink a sip of steaming hot water.

They could only rely on collecting some relatively clean rainwater to quench their thirst and eat raw and cold food to fill their stomachs.

For adults with stronger physical resistance, they may be able to hold on.

But for young children, such difficult living conditions are undoubtedly a fatal blow.

Even if they managed to survive the flood, only one in ten could survive the difficult times.

Lin Yaoyao looked at the few children in the station.

Their eyes, which were once full of innocence, are now filled with pain and helplessness.

His face was haggard and his body was thin.

Lin Yaoyao looked at these tragic scenes with mixed feelings.

The refugees in the base were repairing the leaking roof as usual, when suddenly, they saw Lin Yaoyao and a few others surrounded by a crowd walking in.

They were also aware of the strange colored light and noisy noises last night, but the terrible environment had already numbed their emotions.

Seeing that it did not affect those outside the city, they did not take it seriously for the time being.

"Hey, look, isn't that Lord Li following behind us? It's rare to see him following someone so respectfully." A sharp-eyed refugee lowered his voice and said to his companion beside him.

In order to prevent the refugees from causing trouble to the people in the city, Lord Wang arranged for Lord Li to be responsible for settling the refugees outside the city.

So most of the refugees here know him.

"Really! He's standing so far back, so those people walking in front must be big shots."

While his companion was busy with his work, he stole a glance at him with surprise in his eyes.

"Maybe they were sent by higher-ups to rescue us because of this natural disaster." Another refugee came over and whispered.

They just thought that Grandma Qi and the others were some important people who came to inspect the natural disaster, so the officials of Yuncheng bowed and accompanied them.

Gradually, the refugees began to whisper more, and hope suddenly appeared on their numb faces as they looked at them hopefully.

Granny Qi stood at the front, and a maid stood beside her holding a big umbrella to shield her from the rain.

Although no one spoke, the heavy rain was noisy.

Granny Qi held up a loud speaker and began her brainwashing speech.

The general idea is that they are from the Qingming Sect sent by the Dragon God to save them.

I hope they cooperate with the Qingming Sect’s work, so they don’t have to suffer so much.

When the people in the garrison heard this, they all came out of their straw huts and stared blankly at Grandma Qi and the others in the rain.

They couldn't believe that the one who came to save them was not the disaster relief from the imperial court, but a charlatan.

And can that sound really be made by a mortal?

I didn't hear her screaming loudly, so why was the sound so loud?

This reminded them of the strange colored light and loud noise last night.

They had also heard the Dragon God's declaration, and they had also watched the miracle by the river from afar.

Some of the 99 girls who were selected were selected from here.

So when Grandma Qi said they were people sent by the Dragon God.

The rescued girls and their families came out from the crowd and knelt in front of Grandma Qi and others.

Shouting loudly, "The people sent by Lord Dragon God are here to rescue us! We are saved!"

People who have witnessed miracles with their own eyes are always more likely to believe statements that seem unbelievable to others.

Granny Qi helped the girl in the front row who was kneeling on the ground up with a compassionate look on her face.

"Good boy, if you trust us, we will not let you down."

She turned and looked at Lin Yaoyao, indicating that she could take action.

There was also a maid holding an umbrella beside Lin Yaoyao. Seeing Lin Yaoyao walking forward, she hurriedly quickened her pace to catch up.

Everyone also looked at the girl wearing a ghost face mask curiously as she came to an open space.

The terrain here is flat and suitable for living.

There are a few scattered straw huts at the edge.

Lin Yaoyao pointed at the straw huts, and Lord Wang immediately called out in understanding.

"Someone, come here! Tear down those sheds for me!"

The residents of those straw huts immediately started crying and shouting.

"Sir! Sir, please have mercy. This is the only hut we have. This is the only hut we have."

Grandma Qi explained, holding a loudspeaker in her hand, and her words drowned out the crying.

"Don't worry, we are building a shelter here. If you don't want to live in it later, I will have someone build a new straw hut for you."

After a few words, the frightened families were finally calmed down.

Move away once the straw hut is dismantled.

Lin Yaoyao stood straight in front of the empty land. She raised her hand calmly and in the blink of an eye, several container-like houses that looked like giant beasts appeared out of thin air in front of her.

The whole house is tightly wrapped with hard iron sheets, and a wooden bottom like a raft is laid firmly underneath.

This ingenious design was the result of Lin Yaoyao's careful consideration. She thought that if the water flooded one day, the house would not be submerged in water.

The tin house that appeared out of nowhere stunned everyone present.

The refugees were all dumbfounded, unable to believe their eyes. They looked at each other, with disbelief written all over their faces.

"This...how is this possible?"

"Could it be a manifestation of the gods?"

"Why did this house suddenly appear?"

They whispered to each other and gathered in a circle in the distance, their eyes full of surprise at this magical scene and curiosity about the tin house.

They wanted to go forward and find out what was going on, but they were too timid to get close and just watched from afar.

The officials of Yuncheng were equally shocked.

Although they had witnessed the magical skills of Lin Yaoyao and others last night, Lin Yaoyao's amazing act of creating a room out of thin air still made them completely lose control of their expressions.

Originally they thought that the most powerful person in the group was Granny Qi, but now it seems that this mysterious girl wearing a ghost face mask is equally unfathomable and elusive.

Lin Yaoyao completely replicated the practices of the Daling Village settlement and filled one of the rooms with various food and daily necessities.

The door of the room was wide open, and people outside could clearly see Lin Yaoyao's movements.

If Lin Yaoyao's ability to conjure up a house just now was amazing, then her ability to conjure up food this time made everyone gasp.

"I... am I seeing things? Is that food? Is that white stuff food?"

One of the officials pointed at the rice and flour inside in disbelief.

The rice and noodles that Lin Yaoyao took out were all open, like the inflatable swimming pools used in children's playgrounds in modern shopping malls, and the rice and noodles were placed directly inside.

Therefore, the visual impact is also very great, and the eyes are filled with white.

"It's food! We have food!"

"They really are gods, they were sent by the Dragon God to save us!"

The refugees who saw this scene from outside the door were very excited, and some of the crazier ones even wanted to rush into the room.

Lord Wang also reacted to his great surprise and shouted quickly.

"Quick! Stop them! We can't let them rush in like this!"

However, Lord Wang reacted a step slower than the refugees. Before the guards could run over, the refugees had already rushed to the door.

Unexpectedly, their movements were blocked by a layer of water curtain, and the reaction force of the collision caused them to bounce back and fall to the ground.

Lord Wang shouted, "How dare you disrespect the Taoist priests? Drag him away!"

The refugees all knelt down and shouted loudly.

"Please have mercy on us, Dragon God! Save us!"

"Please have mercy on me, the living gods, and give me some food. I haven't eaten for three days. Please, Bodhisattva."

At this moment, Grandma Qi stood up, and the loud volume of the loudspeaker suppressed the noise at the scene.

"Alright! Lord Wang, please ask the guards to withdraw first. Everyone, please be quiet..."

Lin Yaoyao released a little mermaid in the house and asked her to do the same job as Sophia.

And the same rules notices as those at Daling Village were posted on the walls of the house.

Outside, Grandma Qi had already calmed the refugees down.

She asked Zhang Lei to put outside a stone engraved with the rules and conditions for taking food items from the relief station.

Read it to them sentence by sentence.

I heard that if you believe in the Qingming Sect, you can live in an iron house that can shelter you from wind and rain and receive a pound of fine rice every day.

The girls, who were already grateful to the Dragon God for saving their lives, knelt down and swore to the heavens to change their beliefs, their faces full of piety.

They were also the original experimenters. After they changed their beliefs, Granny Qi asked them to go to the granary to get things.

They took some dry cloth to hold their belongings in advance, and worked in groups of three to easily pass through the film at the door.

Everything was almost arranged, so Lin Yaoyao and a few others returned to the city with Lord Wang and other officials.

Having witnessed the abilities of Lin Yaoyao and the others, Lord Wang looked at them with even more passion.

His attitude became more respectful, "Masters, please come this way. We have already prepared breakfast for you in the mansion, but you are concerned about the people and have no time to enjoy it.
