Traveling through ancient times.
Chapter 17 The first merit is received
"Help, save me, give me...something to eat..."
Jiang Yizhou had just turned a corner when his trouser leg was pulled. He looked down and saw a man who was covered in dirt and gave off a smell that was no less smelly than a toilet that had been fermenting for several days.
For you? I managed to buy this secretly.
She subconsciously tried to break free, but suddenly stopped and an idea suddenly occurred to her mind.
By the way, she remembered that when she first entered this body, Xiao Tongzi told her that helping people in distress is a meritorious deed.
She had always been thinking that once she could leave that house, she would do good deeds.
But I was provoked by that black brother-in-law last night, and this morning I was thinking about how to test which stores have not been conquered by the other party.
Instead, we forget the most important cause, which is merit and virtue.
Fortunately, this opportunity is right at my doorstep, isn’t it?
Jiang Yizhou opened the lotus leaf bag in his hand, picked out a vegetable bag from it and handed it to the other party.
When the man saw the food, his cloudy eyes suddenly lit up, and he grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth.
Jiang Yizhou stood by and waited quietly, his eyes eagerly looking at the person in front of him.
The sparse, dry and yellow hair was twisted into strands by dirt and hung on the equally dirty scalp. All the exposed skin was dark and thin, just skin and bones.
The original color and style of the clothes on his body could not be seen, only the strips of clothes were left hanging on his body.
None of this is important. In her eyes, this may be the manifestation of merit in front of her.
She watched as the man in front of her almost finished the whole bun, but her mind was still silent.
I couldn't help but ask Tongzi: "Hey, didn't you say that rescuing the siege can gain merit? How long will it take to settle this?"
At this moment, the man finally swallowed the last bite of the bun, took a deep breath, and immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed:
"Thank you, Auntie. Thank you, Auntie. I will never forget your kindness..."
Jiang Yizhou's heart moved. She had been in this world for two days. Although she had not met many people, she could feel from their conversations that most people's language expression ability was not high and it was difficult for them to finish a sentence smoothly.
Although the man in front of him was in rags, he spoke clearly and articulately, so he was probably not an ordinary tenant farmer refugee.
She was about to ask when she heard a "ding" sound in her sea of consciousness.
[You successfully rescue a dying person, and you will be rewarded with 10 merits]
Name: Jiang Yizhou
Age: 22 (Life Points Limit: 37)
Merit: 10
Constitution: 40 (average: 50)
Strength: 20 (average: 30)
Speed: 10 (average: 15)
Agility: 7 (average: 10)
Stamina: 7 (average: 10)
Spirit: 10 (average: 10)
Looking at the list of attribute values that appeared out of thin air in front of him, Jiang Yizhou's eyes were fixed on [Merit: 10], and every cell in his body danced with excitement.
Success, she really succeeded and earned merit!
No wonder we often see the “ding” system notification sound described as clear, it turns out it is really crisp and pleasant.
Jiang Yizhou's face instantly changed into a kind and benevolent one, and he said with a smile: "You don't look like a person from Fusong Town. Did something happen to you?"
Jiang Yizhou made up the first sentence completely: If the beggars were in Fusong Town, they would basically not come out to beg so early.
Also, the man's clothes were too worn out, dirty and smelling faintly of blood, which showed that he was not just hungry.
As for the other party calling her "Auntie" as soon as they opened their mouths, she would just ignore it... thinking about the fact that she was only in her thirties, but was already called old aunt by middle school students in their teens, and she accepted it calmly.
Besides, this time she was dressed to look older based on the original owner's haggard appearance, so it was right for people to call her that.
This further proves that her outfit was a success.
Liao Qi said hoarsely, "To answer your question, Auntie, I am from Shatian Village in Ximin County. We have always had little rain. This year, we only had two rains. Last season, the grain harvest was poor, and we couldn't even pay the taxes, so we had no choice but to sell the land."
"There are only me and my father at home. My father said that there is a distant cousin living in the county town, so we thought about going to him for help."
"And then? Did you find your cousin?"
Although Jiang Yizhou was in a good mood because of the ten points of merit, he still had a heavy task today and needed to check out several shops.
But at this moment, Liao Qi completely regarded himself as his savior and pulled himself to tell him his life story.
She didn't want to interrupt him for the moment... Besides, she felt that she should listen, after all, this was one of her ways to understand the world.
So I listened to the other person patiently and gave him a chance to talk from time to time to avoid a dull silence.
Liao Qi had tears in his eyes. "We found it, but my father was probably overworked on the road and caught a cold. Not long after,... Then I got sick too. My cousin's family has old and young people, and I didn't want to implicate them, so I left. I thought I would just go wherever I could. I didn't expect that I ate some herbal medicine on the way, and my illness gradually got better, but my body couldn't hold on any longer..."
"So that's how it is..." Jiang Yizhou pretended to be very sad and sympathized with the other party's situation.
In the sea of consciousness, he was discussing with Xiao Tongzi eagerly: "Xiao Tongzi, do you think what this man said is true? If the facts are really as he said, this man seems to be quite affectionate and righteous."
The implication is that she is now alone in the backyard, with only Yunxin by her side whom she can trust. But if she really encounters a problem, she can't help.
She really needs a helper.
From what he said about his life, he seemed to have no burden and no relatives here. If his character was good, he would be the best candidate to be her servant.
Xiao Tongzi: "Well...from my analysis, what he said is basically true."
"Basically? That's not all?"
Xiao Tongzi: "Just now the rules determined that you saved his life, so you will be rewarded with merit."
Jiang Yizhou finally decided that it would be better to have nothing than to have something of poor quality.
"Auntie, I'm really desperate now. Please take me in. I can do anything. I can read and look at account books. I can fetch water, wash clothes and cook. As long as you give me something to eat, I can do anything..."
Hey, why does this sound so familiar?
Jiang Yizhou was originally planning to leave, but after hearing this, he thought, since the other party had eaten his buns anyway, he might as well... make the best use of them.
If the other party can complete it well, then we'll see.
If not, at least this bun can be exchanged for ten merits, which is not a loss.
So Jiang Yizhou took another bun and gave it to the other person. He would eat several buns in one meal, and the other person was an adult man, so one bun would definitely not be enough to fill him up.
Since you want others to do things for you, you naturally cannot go hungry.
However, Jiang Yizhou did not gain any merit this time.
