I heard Mr. Ye is a good dragon?

The boat slowly sailed towards Washi Street, Ye Heng looked far and wide, and found that this formerly the busiest place in the capital was now a stagnant pool like other places.The rhubarb lanterns that had been hanging in the restaurants and teahouses on the street were gone, and the police patrolling the streets were gone. Ye Heng picked up the lanterns and looked around, feeling like he had entered a ghost town in a storybook.

He was terrified by his own thoughts, and began to babble aloud to dispel the uncomfortable silence: "You said, Washi is not earning any money now, and the bookstore must be empty, so will the team leader be gone?" Out of town?"

"I don't know if he will leave the city or not, but there are still people here." Bai Long pointed forward along the light, "Look over there."

Ye Heng looked up, and there were indeed a few looming light clusters in the distance. Looking in that direction, they should be the largest viewing sheds in Washi.

The two looked at each other, and the boat sailed towards the lookout sheds.

Walking to a closer look, Ye Heng really caught a glimpse of a person from the tarpaulin that was not fully drawn.

There are about 30 people sitting or lying on the performance stage or seats above the water surface, and the only light in the viewing booth comes from a brazier on the stage, which is gray and black, and the red light of the flame is dancing , Several people just watched around.

Ye Heng was wondering what they were looking at for warming, when there was a rustling sound in his ears, and he also caught a glimpse of something moving rapidly in his peripheral vision.

He lifted the lantern to look, and his face turned pale with fright—a group of mice were running wildly on the damp green bricks at the door of the shed!

Ye Heng's scalp went numb for a while, and he couldn't help shrinking back, but was hugged by the white dragon: "Don't be afraid, there is a cover blocking them, they can't get through."

Ye Heng leaned on his shoulder and nodded, just about to say something, when someone shouted excitedly: "I must have caught it, go and see!"

Through the gap, Ye Heng saw several people going out from the side door of the viewing shed. At this moment, Bai Long also moved the boat and secretly took him to see the situation by the side door.

"Oh, this one is quite fat!" Someone picked up a square object from the ground, removed one from the top and threw it into the pocket next to it.

Like him, the rest of them were talking about fat and thin, and one of them lifted the bag and weighed it: "Is it a return with a full load? Everyone will be full tomorrow, and I hope they come for a walk every night, haha Ha ha."

They were talking and laughing when a sneaky little figure suddenly appeared beside the steps. He stretched out his hand from the steps and quickly grabbed a handful of things from the pocket.

Just as he was about to escape, a big man next to him quickly caught him, snatched what was in his hand, and kicked him into the water with a loud shout: "You brat, how dare you come to steal mice! What kind of father and son are you?" !"

Hearing this, Ye Heng immediately understood what was in the brazier, and almost didn't spit it out. Fortunately, he didn't eat much at night, so he retched a few times while leaning on the side of the boat.

The watchman was still beating the child, and pushed him into the water several times, and only let him go when his pockets were full. He said, "Drink cold water when you're hungry!" and returned to the watch shed.

Ye Heng groaned a few times, then turned his head to look, and saw the child half submerged in the water, with only one hand sticking out of the water and waving.

"Bailong, save him!"

Before Ye Heng finished speaking, the boat started moving quickly and reached the hand.

With a stretch of his hand, Bailong pulled the child onto the bow, and wiped off most of the water on his body with magic.

Although the child was rescued, he was exhausted. He leaned on the bow of the boat in a daze, spit out a few mouthfuls of water, rubbed his cramped leg, and then said timidly, "Thank you, brother, for saving me. Do you have anything to eat?"

Ye Heng glanced at Bailong, stretched out his hand and squeezed his sleeves - not to mention food, there was not even a piece of silver in it, he never expected to encounter such a thing when he went out.

Seeing this, the child probably realized that he couldn't get anything to eat, so he let out a "wow" and cried sadly.

"Hey, don't worry, there isn't one now, there will be later." While comforting him, Ye Heng winked at Bailong, meaning to let him drive the boat home.

Unexpectedly, the child cried even louder: "Sell me if you want to sell me, at least give my aunt something to eat, she will die if she doesn't eat... woo woo woo..."

Seeing that the child regarded himself as a human tooth, Ye Heng was very surprised, and quickly comforted him: "Don't be afraid, we won't sell you, where do you live? We will send you home first."

After talking for a while, the child finally believed them, wiped away his tears and showed them the way.

The child's house was small and squat, with the door open—of course, the door was so dilapidated that it made no difference whether it was closed or open, and since the child was hungry enough to steal mice, it didn't matter whether the door was closed or not.

There was still a lamp lit in the room, and Ye Heng managed to see a person lying on the table in the middle of the room. At first glance, he didn't know whether he was dead or alive, so he asked the child: "That is your aunt? Why is she lying there? ?”

The child nodded: "The water is already higher than the bed, the only table left at home is higher, but if the rain continues..."

Ye Heng asked him: "I see that many people in Washi live on the theater stage in the booth, why didn't you go?"

The child sobbed aggrievedly: "I want to go too, but they all drive me away, saying that my father is a smuggler, and I will steal theirs if I go... But if I can eat mice, why bother?" Stealing? My house doesn’t even patronize mice..."

When the sad thing was mentioned, the child started crying again. Ye Heng felt that if he encountered such a tragedy, he would cry too, and he didn't know how to coax him. Fortunately, Bai Long interrupted at this time: "Okay, take these two toast. Give the fish to your aunt."

Both Ye Heng and the child turned their heads, and found a transparent tube in Bailong's hand at some point, and there were indeed two grilled fish inserted in it, but the grilling was not very good, and it was mottled, but just from the As far as the smell is concerned, it must be edible.

The child took a bite on the head of the fish and burst into tears: "Thank you brother!"

As he spoke, he was about to capsize off the boat, but was stopped by Bailong: "Wait a minute, let me bring the boat to your door."

Ye Heng held the child, fearing that he would fall into the water again, thinking that this house is flooded with gold, how will he live in it next?Moreover, the child's parents are missing, and he has to take care of the elders alone at such a young age. How many days can he last with just these two fish?He wanted to take the child to live in the inn, and he had no reason to persuade his father.

Ye Heng was in a dilemma, but when the boat arrived at the door of the house, he realized that the door of the child's house had already been reinforced with ice by Bailong, keeping the rainwater out, and the water in the room was also drained. There are a little wet spots, but after a little cleaning, it is determined to be able to walk, sit, sit and lie down.

Bailong left a gap of half a door above the gate, let the child climb in carefully through the gap, stepped on the table and got off the ground, and then transferred the boat away.

After the boat sailed for a while, Ye Heng finally couldn't hold back and asked, "Where did that grilled fish come from just now? Can you still turn it into food?"

His eyes reflected the light, and he looked as if he was so curious that he sparkled. Bailong couldn't help laughing when he saw it: "Then you think too much, I catch these fish from the water nearby, and I also use the back of the boat to roast them." The fire in that lantern was roasted."

"Lantern fire can also grill fish?"

Bailong turned his head and looked forward, ready to turn the boat around: "It's not very convenient, I can only say that it's cooked as much as possible."

Ye Heng got up and walked to Bailong, tugging at his sleeve and shaking it: "Hey, if you use magic power many times, will you be tired? Will it hurt you?"

Bai Long turned his head, raised his arms and pulled him into his arms: "It's okay to be tired, just give me a kiss, and I won't be tired."

"Hey you stinky snake, I'm serious with you, you talk to me..."

"It's all said to be a dragon."

"Hmph, I think Long Xing Yin is talking about you!"

The two joked a few words, and the boat had already returned to Washi.

Ye Heng looked at those booths with a little light from a distance, and his heart sank again—maybe similar or worse things were happening in the other booths.

If the rain continues like this, these people don’t know how many rats they will eat. Rats are so dirty, and they will probably contract the plague after eating them. When the plague spreads, it will be bad luck for the whole city!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking: "Bailong, do you have a way to turn all the water in the city into an ice cover, like an umbrella, so that the rainwater will slide to the edge and fall directly into the sea?"

Bai Long looked at him deeply, but didn't speak for a moment.

Ye Heng blinked, and suddenly realized: "I'm sorry, this is very labor-intensive, right? It's my imagination."

Bailong shook his head: "It's not a matter of mana. When I came back, I saw cumulonimbus clouds in many places near Beijing. If the rain doesn't stop, even if the rain can be drained, the moat will skyrocket, and there will still be countless casualties. "

"Yes..." Ye Heng pressed the center of his brows and sighed, feeling more and more anxious.

Nearly one-third of the good doctors in the city have left, and the rest of the doctors are not good or bad. Even if their medical skills are fair, the medicinal materials may not be complete. If the epidemic strikes, the capital will be in dire straits!

"I know!" He suddenly raised his head and grabbed Bai Long's hand, "Bai Long, I know how to spend the 5 taels!"

Bailong clasped his hand instead, not shocked by this: "You plan to take it out to save people."

"That's right! This 5 taels is not a fortune that should be earned, so it should be used to benefit others, so that each of them can avoid the rain, have food to eat, and see sickness." Ye Heng made up his mind and said, "Go in Bao and the others will be back in a few days, the medicine has been prepared, and now we need to build more canopies like watch sheds, and figure out where we can get enough food..."

He wriggled his fingers and planned the whereabouts of the gold all the way, planning carefully and orderly.

Bai Long listened at the side, nodded frequently, and finally said: "Then how are you going to explain to your father?"

"It's a temporary thing to be able to hide it for a while. As long as the money is spent, I don't need fame and fortune. I will visit Gao's house tomorrow, discuss this matter with him, and build a tent in his name to give porridge. When my father asked, he said yes I intend to cling to the Gao family!"

Bailong looked at the person in front of him, his eyes were full of determination, his serious expression appeared on his thinned face, he was no longer like the noble son before, and he suddenly became the most happy and kindest Lishi Xianjun in Jiuchongtian.
