Chapter 9 Seeing is believing
When Huo Yang saw that his uncle was actually in the team, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him three times, without any pretensions of a city lord.
Qin Yu stepped forward to help him up.
"You have been away from the sect for many years, and now you are the lord of a city, so there will be no need for such etiquette in the future."
But Huo Yang shook his head and said: "I am a disciple of Tianyun Sect in life, and I am a ghost of Tianyun Sect in death. If there is any need for me in the sect, as long as I say a word, I, Huo Yang, will never hesitate."
Hearing these words, Mo Yan and others were deeply moved, and Qin Yu was also very emotional.
To be able to teach such excellent disciples, why should the Sky Cloud Sect not be strong.
Huo Yang took the six of them to the City Lord's Mansion.
"Uncle Master, you are living here these days. I have specially arranged servants and maids in the mansion to take care of your daily life."
"We appreciate your kindness, but we are disciples of the sect after all. Even if we are outside the sect, we can't lose the rules of the sect. Maids and servants should withdraw."
Huo Yang didn't dare not listen to Master Uncle's words.
Immediately, all the people who had been arranged in advance were withdrawn.
"After such a long journey, you must all be quite tired. I just happen to have some business to deal with. You can rest in the house for the time being. I will give you a good refreshment when I come back in the evening."
"Go get busy if you have something to do, you don't have to worry too much here." Qin Yu smiled.
After Huo Yang left, Mo Yan and the others went back to their rooms to rest.
But Qin Yu, who finally came out once, didn't want to waste time in the room.
A person walked out of the city lord's mansion and went for a stroll on the street.
Because of the reason for accepting apprentices, Mighty Tiancheng became extremely lively during this period.
Many people traveled thousands of miles to come here, wanting to worship under the Tianyun Sect.
Looking at the pedestrians on the street, the vendors selling goods on the street.
There was an indescribable excitement in Qin Yu's heart.
He has lived in the mountains for too long, so long that he has even forgotten how to bargain with vendors when he buys things.
After shopping for more than an hour, Qin Yu felt a little hungry, so he went to the bun shop on the street to buy some buns.
When the boss brought him the hot buns.
A man appeared out of nowhere, snatched the buns from his hand and ran to the south.
The helpless boss shook his head and said, "It's this little bastard again, it's been four times this month."
Tianwei City is one of the top ten cities in Xuanling Kingdom. The resources around the city are very rich. It stands to reason that the people should be able to live a good life, but why are there still hungry people?
"Boss, isn't Mighty City very rich this day? Why are there still people who can't get enough to eat?"
The boss sighed and told Qin Yu what he knew.
Since the monarch ordered to raise taxes five years ago, the lives of ordinary people have been much worse than before.
Especially in the past two years, there have been floods and natural disasters. After the grain grown by the people in a year is handed over to the country, the remaining food is not enough for even half a year.
Many families who could not survive went to other places to seek a living.
"No, boss, I think the city is still quite prosperous. It's not as serious as you said."
"It's not that the Tianyun Sect came here to accept disciples recently. The city lord specially sent people to clean up the city, and locked up the beggars on the street."
Qin Yu, who was originally in a good mood, suddenly became a little ugly after hearing these things.
A few buns are nothing to him.
But he wanted to see with his own eyes how poor the family of the kid he was grabbing the buns was, so poor that he didn't care about risking being beaten for food.
I searched for the approximate location according to the boss, and finally found the child in a dilapidated loess room that would leak when it rained.
An elderly man with white hair and a thin yellow face was lying on an earthen kang. She was covered with a thin quilt, which could hardly keep warm.
The child snatching buns by the kang tore off pieces of buns and put them into the old man's mouth.
Seeing this, Qin Yu felt an inexplicable sadness.
At this time, the child also found Qin Yu standing outside.
He put down the bun in his hand and walked out of the house.
"It was my fault for snatching your bun. If you are angry, hit me, but don't hit me too hard. I have to take care of grandma."
Just now Qin Yu thought she was a boy, but she found out when she spoke.
This dirty, patched child turned out to be a girl.
"Is that your grandma lying there?"
The girl thought he was going to grab grandma's attention, so she immediately used her thin body to block the door.
"If you beat me, don't beat my grandma."
"Little girl, you misunderstood. I didn't come to settle accounts with you."
"I'm not here to settle accounts, so what are you doing here?"
The girl guarded the door tightly, staring at Qin Yu with vigilant eyes, for fear that he would take the opportunity to run into the house.
Qin Yu looked at the old man on the kang, and suddenly had an idea.
"I heard from the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop that your grandma is seriously ill. I happen to know some medical skills. Why don't you let me see your grandma?"
"Really? Are you really willing to help my grandma see a doctor?" the girl asked suspiciously.
"Healer is a parent's heart, not to mention that I don't look like a bad person."
The girl looked Qin Yu up and down, and it was indeed as he said, he didn't look like a bad person.
"If you can cure my grandma, I can do whatever you want me to do."
"I'll talk about this issue later. Let me see your grandma's condition first."
The girl let the door out, and Qin Yu entered the room and came to the Kang.
The old man's complexion was dark yellow, and he was half awake. Although he hadn't started to feel his pulse yet, Qin Yu basically guessed that she must have a liver problem.
The girl brought him a stool.
After Qin Yu sat down, he put his hand on the old man's pulse, then closed his eyes and began to diagnose her.
After a moment.
Qin Yu opened his eyes.
The girl asked nervously: "Doctor, can my grandma's illness be cured?"
"Your grandma's condition is very serious, and she has been ill for too long, so I'm afraid she can't be cured."
The girl burst into tears when she heard it.
Qin Yu hurriedly comforted him: "Don't cry in a hurry, can you just listen to me?"
"Although your grandma's illness can't be cured, I can prevent her condition from getting worse, and then take a good rest for a while, take the medicine I prescribed on time, and live a normal life without any problems."
"Really?" the girl said while wiping her tears.
"Of course it's true."
"But I don't have money to buy medicine."
"You don't have to worry about the medicine. I'll prepare it for you when I get back, and bring it to you tomorrow morning."
For this strange and kind man in front of her, the girl didn't know what she could thank him for.
I saw her kneeling on the ground with a plop.
"Thank you for your willingness to save my grandma."
Qin Yu helped the girl up.
"You don't need to thank me. It is a kind of fate that you and I can meet in this situation."
