Chapter 78 Robbers

Erniu was stunned. Qiqi Ai Ai didn't know what to say. Gao Wei was angry and funny and hurriedly shouted: "Silly boy! You haven't knelt down to become a disciple yet! It's rare that Mr. Doctor God spoke up to accept disciples. This is your fortune! You haven't knelt down to kowtow!"

Erniu glanced at the two of them blankly, knelt down in front of Li Ming and kowtowed repeatedly. Li Ming asked with a smile: "Eniu, what does it mean to knock so much for me?"

Erniu kowtowed and said, "Mr. Gao said that you should treat your master with respect, so Erniu kowtowed him a few more times."

The two laughed and Gao Wei said happily: "Erniu, you are so lucky! Master, Erniu is a good child, honest, and very good-hearted. Although his head is a little dull, this child is very obedient. When he is studying with me, he can still remember the principles I have told. This child can now become a master of the leader, and I believe that there will be another Xinglin master in this world in the future! Congratulations to Master."

Li Ming smiled slightly and reached out to help Erniu up. Erniu looked happy and scratched his ears and cheeks and couldn't help but look at Li Ming. He didn't know what to say. Seeing him like this, Li Ming smiled and said, "Erniu, I accepted you as my disciple today, which is indeed for the sake of you saving my life, but at the same time I also like your honesty, especially you have a pure childlike heart, which makes me see that you are still a talent that can be created. It's nothing to be stupid in your head. The acquired efforts can completely make up for your shortcomings. The master just hopes that you can continue to maintain your innocence and honesty. You have to remember that you must first be loving. Only when you give your love can others repay you with care. Do you understand?"

Erniu hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "Eniu understands that Erniu will stay by the water in the future and try to save a few more people."

After hearing what he said, Gao Wei laughed happily. Li Ming looked at Erniu with laughter and cry, and said, "What I mean to you is not to let you go to save people specifically. Saving people is a manifestation of your love, and there are many things you can do! Forget it, I will tell you slowly this principle in the future. There is no need to stay by the water, that is no different from waiting for a rabbit. Now you lead your friends to dig insects in the nearby woods, such as cicadas, dung beetles, scarabs, grasshoppers and other small insects. This is your current task, do you understand?"

Erniu was so angry that he shouted: "Eniu understands that Erniu will definitely not disappoint his master!" After calling out, he turned around and ran into the woods.

Looking at Erniu's back disappearing in the forest, Li Ming smiled and was about to say something. Gao Wei's voice sounded in his ears: "Master, let's go to the woods. It's too sunny here, it's not good for your injuries."

Li Ming smiled and slowly walked into the woods with Gao Wei.

In the woods, several women were exposing the peeled elm bark to the sun, and some women were following the elm leaves that men pulled down from the tree.

Seeing Li Ming coming, the women hurriedly stood up and lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him. Li Ming hurriedly said, "Don't be reserved. Now is an extraordinary period. No one should have so many concerns. Do your work quickly. Everyone's food depends on you."

Hearing him say this, a few slight laughter came from the group of women, and the people turned around and started to do their own work. Occasionally, a few brave women even glanced at Li Ming.

Li Ming found a place on his back and made it, and said to Gao Wei: "Mr. Gao, don't worry about me anymore. Go and see what they need to help with. I don't need to take care of it here. Alas! I'm a free meal now."

Gao Wei hurriedly said, "Master, don't say that. We should serve you. You should sit here and have a cool night first, and I'll go and help them with their work." After that, he bowed to Li Ming, turned around and disappeared into the woods.

Seeing Gao Wei walking away, Li Ming leaned against the tree and didn't know what to do. His injuries seemed to be quite serious. He was squeezed by a huge official ship outside Shuncheng City, causing him to suffer very serious internal injuries. It is estimated that the internal bleeding is still there. There are still a lot of black blood clots in the thin stools that have been discharged in the past two days. At present, how to stop the internal bleeding as soon as possible is the most important thing.

Suddenly he remembered that Lin Lingfeng once said before that the process of practicing internal strength is actually a process of treating internal injuries. Practicing internal strength according to the method of internal strength can cure internal injuries at the same time. Thinking of this, Li Ming was very excited and hurriedly sat cross-legged with his legs, hanging his right arm to start using his exercises to heal his injuries.

However, when he raised his internal force, his heart suddenly became cold. His dantian felt empty without a trace of internal force. No matter how hard he tried, he could not feel the flow of internal breath in the meridians.

Li Ming was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He put down his left hand dejectedly and leaned on the tree trunk and gasped quickly. It seemed that he had exhausted his internal energy while struggling in the water. Although he relied on the energy of his internal energy to save his life, his internal energy had been wasted.

Li Ming sighed softly and shook his head with a wry smile. He was originally quite confident in his martial arts cultivation, but never expected that he would become a useless person at this moment. Even though he could recover from the injury, it would be easier to practice from scratch without Lin Lingfeng's help.

Li Ming stretched out his legs and slowly slid on the ground against the trunk. He looked at the mottled sunlight passing through the leaves in his eyes. He didn't know what it felt like in his heart. Slowly, he was extremely tired and gradually fell asleep.

I don't know how long I had been lying down, but Li Ming heard a few footsteps and came to his side in a daze. He barely opened his heavy eyes and turned his head. Erniu, Ergou, Xiaohua and a few dirty smiling faces appeared in front of him.

Seeing Li Ming wake up, Erniu cracked his mouth, smiled and took out a clay bowl from behind and handed it to Li Ming's eyes. He covered the mouth of the bowl with his hands and said, "Master, look at what Erniu brought to you? Smell it quickly, is it fragrant?"

A long-lost fragrance rushed into Li Ming's nose. Li Ming took a few deep breaths, and a childhood feeling surged into his heart. He hurriedly got up and asked happily: "What is it? Roasted cicadas! Is it?"

The children's faces suddenly showed a look of surprise. Erniu looked at Li Ming with admiration and said, "The master is really a god descending to earth! You can even smell this. How does the master know? The master is so noble, have you eaten this?"

Li Ming smiled slightly, raised his hand and stroked Erniu's head, and said in a commemorative tone: "The master has also had his own childhood like you. The master has lived in a mountain village since he was a child, and like you, he is a child of poor families. Since I was a child, I have been running wild in the mountains and forests, and I have done cicadas, roasted grasshoppers, and hares. At that time, I felt that I was the happiest person in the world."

Erniu and others immediately became excited and shouted, "It turns out that the master was the same as us when he was a child! I thought the master was a god who came down to earth, and he must be different from us when he was a child. By the way, Master, have you ever stole sweet potatoes and slapped the tail of a mule when you were a child?"

Li Ming became very immature and approached several children and said excitedly: "How could it not be there? You need a mule tail to catch cicadas! Otherwise, how can you get it? Every night, a few of us friends dig cicadas in the woods. We can dig a large bowl in one night, and put it in the pot and bake it. Hey! That's what it smells like!"

Erniu said excitedly: "By the way, I am the best at picking golden cicadas in the soil. Look! Most of this bowl of golden cicadas are picked out by me. Master, hurry up and eat it. I specially asked Aunt Wang to bake it for me. It will be bad if it is cold."

Li Ming suddenly moved his index finger, took the earthen bowl and said, "Okay! I haven't eaten this for nearly twenty years. Come on, let's eat a few of us, one by one, and I will reimburse it!"

A few children gathered around and worked hard with Li Ming. In a blink of an eye, they ate a bowl of fragrant roasted golden cicadas.

Li Ming licked his lips with unsatisfactory intentions and exclaimed repeatedly: "It's delicious! It's so delicious, Erniu, you guys will catch it again. Tonight we will let everyone eat this supreme delicious dish."

Seeing Li Ming's happy eating, Erniu was overjoyed and agreed happily, leading the little friends to the distance.

Li Ming stroked his stomach and lay down with satisfaction. His heart was still moved by the childlike fun just now. The melancholy of losing his internal strength had long disappeared without a trace.

A burst of rapid footsteps ran towards this side. Gao Wei hurriedly appeared in front of Li Ming and said anxiously: "Master, I just saw a large raft appearing not far away on the shore. Don't you go over and take a look?"

Li Ming sat up and said excitedly: "Really? Help me to see! Maybe it's a group of people in trouble, but it may also be some kind-hearted people who specialize in helping the victims. Let's go!" After that, he stood up with Gao Wei's shoulder.

The two of them came to the shore and followed the direction of Gao Wei's finger. Li Ming indeed saw a huge raft. There were more than a dozen people standing sparsely on the raft, each of them holding a long bamboo pole in their hands, and controlling the huge raft to flexibly avoid the debris on the water in the torrent.

Li Ming was overjoyed and cheered: "It's great, I finally saw other people! Gao Wei, hurry up and contact them to see if they can send us to other places. Looking at their boating skills, they should be fishermen in the water, and they can send us back to Biquan Island."

"Wait a minute." Gao Wei said with a serious expression: "What's wrong. Did the leader see it? They all carry weapons. Moreover, the fishermen in the water are not as fierce as them. These people are not like ordinary people. Even ordinary fishermen dare not sail in this flood, let alone such a large raft? Let's wait a moment."

After hearing Gao Wei's reminder, Li Ming calmed his excitement a little and began to carefully look at the raft in front of him. Gao Wei was right. Looking at the people on the raft, they all seemed to have good martial arts skills and were definitely not ordinary fishermen. But in this endless flood, what were they doing?

At this time, other villagers on the shore also found the raft. Several people ran to the water and shouted at the raft. Li Ming wanted to stop it, but it was too late. The people on the raft had already discovered their own people, and they were turning the raft full of turn and leaned towards this side.

Li Ming was very anxious and hurriedly asked Gao Wei to support him and moved towards the group of shouting people.

The raft was so fast that it seemed that it did not slow down due to the rapids on the shore. Before Li Ming could get close to the crowd, the raft had already steadily moved to the shore. The people on the raft jumped ashore one after another, pulled out the weapons in their hands and surrounded the crowd.

Everyone was shocked and leaned against a bunch of people in panic. Zhang Kui led a few young people around everyone, looking at the people and asked, "Who are you? We are all disaster victims, and we don't have a single copper coin on us. Please don't make things difficult for us."

The person in the leader smiled and said, "Don't worry, we are not robbing money, nor will we kill our lives. As long as you hand over the food obediently, we will not intimidate you."

After hearing what he said, the middle-aged man was panicked, Zhang Kui was so angry that his face turned red, and he argued: "I'm saying it's not a life-threatening death! You snatched our food away, so how can we live like a lot of people? Besides, we don't have much food anymore, so we can only eat for two days."

The man sneered and said, "That's right. You don't have enough food anyway. Isn't it the same as starving to death a few days earlier or a few days later? Just give us the remaining food. We have few people, and your food can still support us until the flood recedes. Just think that it's doing something good before death! Brothers, what are you waiting for? Search around and put the food on and leave here soon."

There was a commotion in the crowd. Zhang Kui led some young people to pick up sticks and stones to stop someone, and said angrily: "It's outrageous! Why do you want to steal our food? Haven't you become robbers? The food is stolen, how can we live? If you really do this, we have to fight with you!"

The leader laughed and looked at Zhang Kui and said proudly: "You are right! We are robbers! But don't get me wrong. We don't usually rob the things of ordinary people, but now we have no choice. We can't live without robbing food. How can we take care of you? It's not that I underestimate you, you are all in a hurry! It's not that I'm just a match for me. So I advise you to stay honestly! It's only one day to live, why bother to go on the road to the underworld? Brothers! Don't worry about them, find the food quickly!"

"Slow down!" Li Ming, who arrived hurriedly, did not care about his weakness and qi, and shouted out with all his strength.

"Huh?" The robber who led the lead screamed in surprise, looked at the panting Li Ming coldly, and sneered: "Are you, the sick man, screaming just now? The voice is not small! How dare you stop your uncle? I am impatient!" After saying that, he walked to Li Ming with a murderous look on his face, raised his hand and slashed at Li Ming's head.

Everyone was shocked. No one expected that the robber would suddenly attack Li Ming. Gao Wei had no time to react next to Li Ming, so he could only watch the blade slashing towards Li Ming's head.

Although Li Ming lost all his internal strength now, his reaction was still very sensitive. He subconsciously raised the wooden stick in his hand, blocked the edge of the blade, and followed the direction of the blade to one side. He was pushed by the huge momentum from the rod and staggered, and fell to the ground with Gao Wei, and rolled down the hillside into the water.

Everyone was shocked. Zhang Kui led everyone to hurry up and rushed towards the two of them, but it was obviously too late. The two of them were about to roll into the surging flood, and everyone was so anxious that they were about to go crazy. Suddenly, a rope passed through everyone's back, and put on Li Ming's ankle before they fell into the water. The two paused and stopped by the water.

Everyone hurried forward, helped the two of them up with all their strength, and asked about their situation in a verbal way.

Suddenly, the crowd was forcibly separated by a huge force. The robber leader walked in with surprise. The cold light in his eyes stared at Li Ming and asked, "Who are you? You are not a villager! Although I can't feel your internal strength, with your reaction and skills, you should be a martial arts man."

Zhang Kui flashed to Li Ming to protect him, looked at the robber leader and said, "You are not allowed to hurt him! If you want to grab the food, just take it away, but you are not allowed to hurt him! Otherwise, we will all fight with you!" After hearing his words, the villagers responded with a loud bang, and for a momentum it seemed very imposing.

The leader laughed a long time, and immediately suppressed the villagers' voices. Everyone was shocked and they all stopped their voices, and nervously protected Li Ming to look at the person.

The robber leader smiled coldly, spread his arms and pulled at the people in front of him. Everyone immediately stood unsteadily and fell to both sides. The man looked at Li Ming and said coldly: "Tell me, you are not an ordinary person. What's rare is that these villagers would rather not want their own food than protect you with all their strength! Who are you?"

"He is the God of Medicine!" Gao Wei got up, walked to the man and stood calmly, looking at the man calmly and said, "Mr. Doctor God benefits the world and drove away the plague for us. Of course, he deserves our life to protect. I want to ask, has this gentleman not been favored by Mr. Doctor God? Do you really think that you are very skilled in martial arts and can withstand the invasion of the plague? If it weren't for Mr. Doctor God Teaching us how to deal with the plague last time, I'm afraid this gentleman might not have stood here to show off his power!"

A very strange expression appeared on the robber's boss' face, as if he was surprised, sad, and angry. Suddenly, he burst into laughter, and his sad and angry voice rang in front of everyone: "Li Ming!? You are Li Ming! Hahaha, the net of heaven is vast! Li Ming! I was worried that I couldn't find you, but I didn't expect you to appear here! Brothers! This is the wolf-hearted Li Ming! You can see clearly!"

The robbers ran over with a loud roar, Hula separated the villagers and surrounded Li Ming in the middle, pointing the weapons in his hands at Li Ming.
