Chapter 461: 461
… three days later…
Chu Yunsheng was sitting on top of a pumpkin, quietly circulating the energy inside his body to quench his body .
From the early stage of Yuan Tian stage three to the middle stage of Yuan Tian stage three, the cultivation method was no longer a problem . All it left now was just the dull cultivation routine .
From last night, Chu Yunsheng started to think about how to return the life force back to the little girl while quenching his body .
With his current ability, the seventh nail could take someone's life force away, however, it could not transfer his life force to someone else . The monster seal talisman could transfer his life force, however, he couldn't seal that little girl . So he was in a dilemma .
At a place not far away from him, the village chief Gao was making pumpkin houses with a group of villagers . There weren't any complicated process when making a pumpkin house . All they did was to hollow out the dried pumpkin, and covered the hole on the wall of the pumpkin with a wooden plank, and used it as the door of the pumpkin house .
There were around two hundred people in the village . But only sixty pumpkin houses were needed . Since there were only sixty families . Looking at villagers walking in and out of the pumpkin houses, it was like a fairytale .
Chu Yunsheng also got one pumpkin house . It was the one he was currently sitting on . It took the oldest kid of elder Yu's family the entire evening to finally complete it .
That kid didn't like to talk . However, he was extremely hard-working . Apart from the time he spent on eating, he was working all day long, as if he had endless energy .
Maybe the discovery of the pumpkin field made him feel hopeful for the happy life in the future . Although Chu Yunsheng had never seen him smile before, he understood the emotions hidden in those eyes . Sometimes, he felt like they were lot like each other .
Suddenly, Chu Yunsheng heard some noises . As he opened his eyes, he saw a man who dressed in ragged clothing was heading towards a pumpkin house next to his with a girl that was around twelve years old . It seemed like they were visiting his neighbour - the elder Yu's family .
The little girl didn't seem to have much clothing to wear . Both of her little feet were red with cold . However, she still had to step on the freezing ground with her bare feet . Sometimes, she had to curl up her toes to withstood the freezing ground .
However, it was still very noticeable that the girl was clearly dressed up before she came here . At least, the top half of her body was covered with a piece of clothing that seemed to be made out of some dried rattans . In terms of the bottom half of her body, she was only wearing big ragged shorts . Perhaps, they didn't realize or maybe they just didn't care that much, with the big short, her scarily skinny legs were strikingly obvious .
Her chapped little face was also cleaned . Her mother even braided her withered yellow hair for the first time . It was dancing in the cold wind behind her head as the little girl walked towards the elder Yu's house .
The little girl seemed to be a little bit nervous . Perhaps she was shy, she always kept her head down while walking . However, her skinny hands were grasping her clothing tightly, revealing the complicated feelings in her mind .
“Is elder Yu home?” the old man asked using his hoarse voice as he arrived before the pumpkin house .
He was wearing an old and torn cap that had words “automobile repair” on it . There were only two of those caps in the village, the other one belonged to the village chief Gao .
According to the old man himself, the cap was made in the age of light, and it was the only thing that his father left to him . Although no one was able to recognize the words that were written on it nowadays, it was still something he could boast about .
There was no response from inside of the pumpkin house . However, the old man didn't seem to show any signs of being impatient . Instead, he was quietly waiting outside .
Inside the pumpkin house, the senile little girl nervously peeked outside through the gaps of the wooden door . Seeing the old man noticed her, she quickly ran inside and hid in the corner in panic .
The old man slightly frowned, it was almost unnoticeable .
Elder Yu had a serious injury when he was young . It took him to a long time, but he still barely recover himself . His wife was also suffering from a terrible health condition . Plus there was a senile little girl in the family . Although he had a son that was very hard-working, and that kid could feed everyone in the family, it was still the poorest family in the entire village .
If it was in the old days, there was no way that the old man would be interested in talking to elder Yu . However, since the strange old man came to the village, the living condition of elder Yu's family was improved dramatically . Nowadays, even the village chief Gao himself also came to visit elder Yu very often .
