Chapter 103 Unwilling to Waste My Life



Qin Luo, along with Qin Liang, asked Qin Ling for the carriage that cost seven hundred taels of silver.

Then he led Qi Bai to Jingming and the others.

Qin Luo reached into the carriage, and in the blink of an eye, the carriage was filled with grain and water.

No one else noticed anything amiss, except Qin Liang, who felt the carriage dip slightly.

Before long, people started arriving one after another.

The first ones to arrive were that old woman and that man named Song Yi.

The two knelt before the young monk Jingming and the others, offering devout prayers.

"We beg the abbot, we beg the auspicious beast Dang Kang to save our lives, and grant us some food and water. We will surely offer them sincere sacrifices in the future!"

Jingming first made the golden lotus on his forehead flash, then secretly removed the light-blocking cloth.

In the darkness, with no torches nearby, the luminous pearl shone exceptionally brightly.

The disaster victims saw the golden lotus on Jingming's forehead shimmering.

His whole body radiated light, and his heart kowtowed even more sincerely.

A vast, orderly mass of people were kowtowing, chanting incessantly.

"I beg the abbot, I beg Lord Kang to save my life! I will offer incense and kneel in prayer every day from now on!"

Seeing the disaster victims gathered around

Jingming's fellow disciples and the temple keeper all chanted loudly.

"Amitabha! The abbot of Fuhua Temple, along with all the monks, pray to the Buddha and the auspicious beast Dangkang to bestow food and water upon the disaster victims. We thank the Buddha and Lord Dangkang!"

Jingming bowed deeply, and when he looked up, he saw Qin Luo nod.

Jingming understood immediately, and he looked at the disaster victims.

"Amitabha! Lord Kang has already provided food and water, which are continuously supplied in this carriage, and everyone has a share!"

The disaster victims cheered excitedly upon hearing this.

Jingming raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and everyone immediately stopped shouting.

"Esteemed patrons, please take your containers of food and water and line up in front of the carriage. Do not crowd! The messenger will distribute them to you one by one. Go quickly!"

Upon hearing this, the disaster victims immediately went back to get their belongings and lined up.

Qin Luo and Qin Liang were responsible for distributing food and water to the disaster victims.

Each person will receive ten catties of wheat flour, ten catties of sweet potatoes, and a water bag!

Both adults and children can come and receive it.

The disaster victims were moved to tears as they received the food, and the children started eating sweet potatoes right away.

Seeing Qin Luo's small arms and legs working so fast, Mu Feng felt sorry for her and stepped forward to take over the work from her hands.

"Go and rest over there, I'll do it!"

Qin Luo did feel a bit sore in her arms, and she gratefully thanked Mu Feng.

"Thank you, Uncle!"

Then he walked to the side of the carriage, reached his hand through the window, and filled the carriage with more stuff.

Qin Xian also came over to take over from Qin Liang, and Mu Feng chatted with Qin Xian while working.

"Brother, why are you so good to Brother Qin Liang? I see you always helping him with chores, but you don't do that to Brother Qin Xing!"

Qin Xian glanced at Qin Liang, who was rubbing his arms and massaging his back not far away.

"My sixth cousin has always been frail, so of course I have to help him more. My third cousin is as strong as an ox; I'm already being kind by not having to ask him for help!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Feng also looked at Qin Liang and finally gave his approval.

"Hmm, Brother Qin Liang seems rather frail. I'll help him with chores more often from now on!"

Qin Xian agreed without hesitation and told him how good Qin Liang had been to him.

"Actually, my sixth cousin loves me the most. You don't know what happened in Shipo County. It was extremely dangerous back then. Hundreds of bandits wanted to kill us, and my sixth cousin bravely took a knife for me!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Feng instantly felt a deep respect for Qin Liang.

"I never imagined that Brother Qin Liang would be willing to risk his life for you?"

"Of course! You could see his spine was cut open, and there was blood everywhere. I was terrified. Luckily, Lord Kang gave me the medicine. Otherwise, I would never have seen him again!"

Qin Xian took the opportunity to thank Lord Kang again.

"He's someone who's so afraid of pain, yet he risked his life for me. Do you think it's only natural for me to be nicer to him now?"

Mu Feng's admiration for Lord Kang grew even stronger.

"Yes, you should treat him better! But then again, Lord Kang is truly remarkable! He's so kind-hearted, helping so many people; you should definitely honor him with respect at home in the future!"

“That’s for sure. Our entire village has been protected by Lord Kang, and Luo Luo was even his messenger. We can’t forget this kindness, and we can’t forget Lord Shan Jun either!”

Mu Feng's curiosity was piqued.

"Lord Shanjun? Brother, could you tell me about him?"

"Of course, I'm telling you..."

The two were talking enthusiastically, and their hands didn't stop moving.

The disaster victims queuing up to receive food listened with great interest.

If I weren't so hungry, I would have liked to stand there and listen a little longer.

Qin Luo refilled the cart dozens of times before all the disaster victims received food and water.

She instructed the "Cloth Bag Team" to deliver a bag of potatoes to each household in Qixia Village.

I'm afraid the villagers and their clansmen will feel resentful and make sarcastic remarks!

Sure enough, after receiving the potatoes, their attitude towards Qinling became even more respectful.

Mu Feng understood, and after listening to Doctor You explain the origin of the scars on Qin Luo's face...

I felt even more sorry for her.

These people drank the water she brought and ate the food she delivered.

They avoided her like the plague, forbidding even their children from getting close to her.

The villagers were one thing, but the clansmen were also affected by Bai Shao's words.

Gradually, I became afraid of her and distanced myself from her...

Mu Feng walked to Qin Luo's side and touched her veil.

"Luo Luo, why are you still wearing a veil so late?"

Qin Luo touched the scar on his face.

"I'm afraid it will frighten these disaster victims. The scar is too long; it will scare children and make them cry."
