Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep
Chapter 49 Ancient Famine Escape 2
The children were so excited that they jumped and bounced around.
"The fairy sister is so beautiful."
The village chief of Xiahe Village was also excited, saying, "I never thought our village would have such good fortune. This is something our ancestors for eighteen generations have been burning incense for!"
After everyone calmed down, they did as instructed and divided the rice equally, with each family receiving a large bag.
Looking at the rice they had been given, everyone became excited again. They had never seen such white rice before; the gift from the gods was indeed extraordinary.
"Father, we can eat the food of the gods too."
"This rice is so white! I've never seen such white rice before."
"Yes, thanks to our ancestors and the blessings of the gods!" The old man was in tears.
Someone took a sip of the water bestowed by the gods and found it exceptionally sweet; after drinking it, they no longer felt tired.
"My God, this is divine water! I feel so energetic after drinking it."
"really?"
"Nonsense, you don't even believe water given by a god?"
Everyone picked up the water to try it, and another heated discussion ensued.
Everyone here was talking about Bai Qingqing's appearance with great interest, and they would gesticulate wildly as if she were a goddess descending to earth whenever they met someone.
The news gradually spread, since so many people had witnessed the story of the immortals, and everyone was inclined to believe it was true.
Rain began to fall in the cities Bai Qingqing flew over, her wave of the hand bringing with it a tempestuous storm.
In order to collect merits from the faith, Bai Qingqing flew in the air so that many people could see her, and everyone who saw her knelt down and kowtowed.
"Immortals, there are immortals flying in the sky."
A child of about ten years old happened to look up and see Bai Qingqing in the sky. He rubbed his eyes to make sure he was there.
People around looked up.
How could there be gods dreaming in broad daylight?
Before they could finish thinking, they looked up and saw a goddess riding on clouds, and everyone froze in place.
Realizing what had happened, they all knelt down and kowtowed.
"Thank God! A god has descended to earth! We are saved!"
People who heard the commotion came out.
Many people witnessed this scene, and the news of the presence of deities spread quickly.
The news spread far and wide, and people in distress hoped that a deity could save them.
Bai Qingqing watched as so many people prayed, and with a wave of her hand, another storm erupted.
The drought-stricken areas had not received rain for more than half a year. When it finally rained, everyone cheered and rushed to collect the water.
"Great! The gods have come to save us! It's raining! It's raining!"
"Finally, it's raining. We don't have to flee anymore," some elderly people said, wiping away tears.
People who saw the immortals followed them all the way, because seeing the immortals was something no one could refuse.
A large group of people followed her along the way, but Bai Qingqing's flying speed was too fast for those walking on the ground to keep up.
I followed it for a while and then it disappeared from sight.
Those underground were still not satisfied.
"I want to build a golden statue for the deity and worship it every day."
“I go back to pray every day.”
Before, people didn't know about any gods, so they chose the ones they believed in. Now that they've seen the true god, everyone believes in what they've seen with their own eyes.
Nighttime, in a dilapidated temple.
Several young beggars lay in a pile of broken straw. Upon closer inspection, all of them had dry, chapped, and bleeding lips, and their cheeks were sunken from thinness.
My stomach is growling; I don't know how many days I've been hungry, and I'm also severely dehydrated.
If I don't eat or drink anything soon, I won't be able to hold on any longer.
Li Gang was the name his parents gave him when they were still alive. After his parents passed away unexpectedly, he began to grow up with stumbles and difficulties at the age of ten.
He was struggling to make ends meet. Before, when he was in the village, people would occasionally give him some food out of pity. But since the natural disaster struck, with drought and lack of rain, no one in the village had a harvest.
Li Gang's life became even more difficult. The whole village began to flee the famine, and Li Gang was young and had nothing, so no one was willing to take him with them.
So he ended up begging all the way, digging up tree roots and wild vegetables to fill his stomach when he was hungry, and sleeping in this dilapidated temple at night.
But recently the weather has been getting hotter and hotter, and not a single drop of rain has fallen. Even the river has dried up and cracked.
The plants also dried up and died.
We have no water to drink and nothing to eat every day.
Li Gang felt a burning pain in his stomach, and his mouth cracked and bled whenever he moved it.
I vaguely remember seeing my parents coming to pick me up.
Just as consciousness was beginning to fade.
I think I can hear the sound of rain.
Tick-tock, tick-tock...
Listening carefully, I could hear the rain getting heavier and heavier, and the sound of rain hitting the roof of the dilapidated temple was clearly audible.
The roof was broken, and rain gradually dripped down onto the thatched roof where Li Gang lay.
When he felt his hands were wet, Li Gang realized he wasn't dreaming. He opened his eyes with all his might and saw that it was really raining.
In my excitement, I felt a bit of my strength return, and I picked up the half-broken porcelain bowl to catch the rainwater.
They shouted loudly, "Get up! It's raining! We won't die! We have water to drink!"
The sound echoed in the dilapidated temple, and gradually some people struggled to get up. Seeing that it was raining, they were overjoyed.
Everyone ran outside and cheered in the rain.
"Haha, we have water to drink now."
They even drink water directly from their mouths.
"This water tastes so sweet, I haven't had any water in ages."
"We are saved."
The excitement was indescribable, and the atmosphere was more enthusiastic than ever before.
One of the little beggars looked up and saw a white light drifting over from the sky.
"Look, what's that?" a surprised voice rang out.
Those who heard the sound looked over curiously.
Then everyone gasped in surprise, their eyes fixed on the white light in the night.
As they got closer, they felt nervous and scared.
Before anyone could react, Bai Qingqing's figure came into view.
Then everyone witnessed a scene they would never forget.
The fairy, dressed in a soft, white gown, swayed gently as if she could move the air around her. Her long, jet-black hair flowed in the wind like starlight in the night sky, making her breathtakingly beautiful.
He stood on white clouds, his body emitting a faint golden light.
The raindrops seemed to be blocked by something, unable to touch them.
Where she drifted by, the rain fell heavily, as if cheering for her arrival.
The surrounding plants are also visibly thriving.
The person who had been staring blankly suddenly realized what was happening and quickly knelt down.
"A fairy has descended to earth! I have seen a fairy!"
"Thank you, fairy, for sending down this sweet rain."
"Thank God for saving us."
When Bai Qingqing saw the children, she was so excited that she kowtowed until her forehead turned red.
With a wave of her hand, the discomfort on everyone's foreheads disappeared, and their clothes dried completely.
"Rise, all of you! I am the Rain God, who has descended to earth to save the world."
In the blink of an eye, they were all sent to the foot of the dilapidated temple.
Amazed by the divine power, it truly is possible to do anything with a wave of the hand.
When I looked up again, Bai Qingqing had already floated away.
"I saw a fairy sister."
"Pinch me to see if I'm dreaming."
"Our clothes are all dry."
Li Gang snapped out of his daze.
I pinched myself and touched my clothes. They were indeed soaked, but the gods waved their hands and they dried in the blink of an eye.
After confirming it was real, I saw that the nearby plants had all come back to life, and I wouldn't have to go hungry for the time being.
Wild vegetables and mushrooms are enough to fill our stomachs.
No one could sleep tonight, we were all too excited. When the rain lessened a bit, we went to dig up some wild vegetables to eat.
