Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

Doctor Zhao first examined Village Chief Ma, then took out the silver needle he carried with him.

As the silver needle inserted, Village Chief Ma gradually woke up.

But he still couldn't say anything, which made the two brothers Ma Da and Ma Er very anxious.

"Dad, how are you?"

"father!"

"Stop shouting, carry the person back quickly!"

Doctor Zhao patted Ma Da, then turned to Er Cheng and said:

"Go and get my medicine box!"

Ercheng agreed and quickly ran towards Doctor Zhao's house.

With the help of everyone, the two brothers Ma Da and Ma Er carried the village chief Ma back first.

Doctor Zhao followed closely behind. Before Xia Shengsheng followed, he did not forget to remind the gatekeepers and patrolmen not to let their guard down.

If there is any further movement from the officers and soldiers outside, notify everyone as soon as possible.

This incident has really become a big deal. What are the differences between government soldiers, bandits and disaster victims?

The people of Kaoshan Village threw out those two soldiers so blatantly. Who knows what kind of storm will face Kaoshan Village?

But no one regrets having come to this point, as everyone does it for their families and loved ones.

Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Since we don’t know what the road ahead holds, we can only take one step at a time and see how it goes.

Xia Shengsheng, together with some villagers, followed Doctor Zhao to the home of Village Chief Ma.

A group of people were waiting outside the door, waiting for Doctor Zhao to finish examining Village Chief Ma and come out to tell them the results.

Everyone waited for a long time and was feeling quite nervous, fearing that something might happen to Village Chief Ma at this critical moment.

In order not to disturb Doctor Zhao's treatment, only Ma Da and Ma Er were left in the room with Doctor Zhao.

The other daughters-in-law and grandchildren were also standing outside the door waiting.

At this moment, the youngest child suddenly started crying, and this cry touched everyone's heart, as if this cry brought a premonition.

Ma Erjia quickly took the youngest child from her eldest daughter's hands and began to coax him patiently.

But before the child could be coaxed, grief-stricken cries and shouts suddenly rang out from inside.

"father……"

"Dad, please don't leave us... woo woo..."

When the Ma family members standing outside the door heard the sound, they all rushed in hurriedly.

Xia Shengsheng also walked to the door behind them.

I saw people kneeling on the floor in the room.

And from time to time, the sound of people crying could be heard.

Village chief Ma, who was lying on the kang, had his eyes drooping and his breathing seemed a little forced, as if he was trying hard to stay awake.

Doctor Zhao gave up his seat, sighed, and stepped outside to give them some time to say goodbye.

When Doctor Zhao came out, Xia Shengsheng followed Doctor Zhao and left the house.

Other people in the village also gathered around.

"Doctor Zhao, what's going on? Is Village Chief Ma's illness serious?"

"Yeah, what kind of disease is it?"

"Is it incurable?"

Doctor Zhao glanced at the person who spoke last, and everyone became nervous.

"Village Chief Ma is already old, and he has been overworked in the past two years. I told him before that he should take good care of his health, but I didn't expect him to suddenly get angry today. Sigh! The law of nature is cyclical, and you cannot interfere with it by yourself!

Let them have a good family reunion! This may be the last time they see each other! "

Boom!

The news shocked everyone.

Village Chief Ma has always been in good health.

Otherwise, he wouldn't worry about everything for the villagers, and would be the first to rush forward to help everyone arrange things.

how come?

Xia Shengsheng was also shocked. After listening to Doctor Zhao's words, he returned to the door where he had just stood.

Looking at Village Chief Ma lying on the kang, whispering instructions to his descendants, he couldn't help but feel sad and tears dripped from the corners of his eyes.

In the past few years since she came here, most of the time she has called him Village Chief Ma just like everyone else.

I only call him Uncle Ma sometimes when there is no one around.

But in her heart, she treated Village Chief Ma as her own elder.

Village Chief Ma was a fair person throughout his life. He took care of all the big and small matters in the village, and he also took good care of Xia Shengsheng when Xia Shengsheng first came into this world.

I never thought that such a good person would suddenly leave us one day.

Logically speaking, Village Chief Ma was not very old, not even 60 years old! His eldest grandson had not even found a marriage.

He is about to leave this world, which makes everyone even more sad.

I am sadly recalling the past experiences of Village Chief Ma.

Martha suddenly came over.

"Sister Xia, my father has something to tell you. Please come over here!"

There was a tremor in Martha’s voice and the tears on her face had not been wiped away!

Xia Shengsheng hurried forward and squatted in front of Village Chief Ma, unable to conceal her sadness.

"Xiao Xia! Village, village..."

The village chief was still a little out of breath when he spoke.

Xia Sheng explained what the White Horse Village Chief meant, and quickly replied, "I understand, Village Chief. As long as I can, I will definitely try my best to help the villagers!"

Village Chief Ma slowly forced a smile on his face and nodded.

Just at this time, some respected elders in the village learned about what happened to Village Chief Ma and rushed over.

Xia Shengsheng retreated to the back again and looked at several elders of similar age who were surrounding Village Chief Ma and talking to him.

Because Xia Shengsheng was quite far away, she didn't hear clearly what they said.

All I know is that after a while, crying sounds were heard again in the house.

Village Chief Ma just left like that.

The villagers standing outside couldn't help but shed tears!

Tao Wuji and his son stood at the outermost edge. Although they had no feelings for Village Chief Ma, after all, they had known each other for so long?

It happened right next to me, and I couldn't help but feel sad.

The two soldiers outside didn't knock on the door again after they were thrown out.

Instead, he brushed the dirt off his body, glanced at Kaoshan Village, sighed, and rode away from Kaoshan Village on his horse.

Because we don’t know what other unexpected events may occur, and we don’t know what will happen if everyone goes against the court so blatantly?

Moreover, as it was a special period, the body of Village Chief Ma did not stay for too long and was sent away directly on the same day.

As early as when Village Chief Ma’s wife passed away, Village Chief Ma prepared a coffin and shroud for himself!

So now there is no need to prepare these things in advance, which saves a lot of time.

The descendants of the Ma family dressed Village Chief Ma in shrouds and put him in a coffin. Amid painful wails, the filial sons and grandsons carried the coffin towards the back mountain.

Village chief Ma was buried in the ancestral tomb in the back mountain. Almost everyone in the village went to see him off and watched him, after working hard all his life, be buried.

Sadness is inevitable!

Because there was no time to make a tombstone, the Li family helped to carve it out of a wooden board and it is now placed in front of Village Chief Ma’s grave.

The Ma family knelt in front of the grave and cried for a long time before they were persuaded by the villagers to return to the village.
