Chapter 1758: Chapter 943: Mountain Village (Part 2)
Actually, everyone in the village knew how powerful this Crystal Ball was. Any prophecy it gave would definitely come true.
Everyone chimed in one after another, and at this moment Lin Feng had become the savior of the whole village.
They had the women take care of Lin Feng, rotating one by one to look after him until he woke up, and only then would they make detailed plans.
Lin Feng was still in deep sleep. The one in charge of taking care of him today was a fifteen-year-old girl, very gentle and extremely sweet-looking.
She used her clear, watery eyes to look at the sleeping Lin Feng. She kept feeling that the man before her was not only handsome, but also carried a sort of Immortal-like pride.
Her father had once practiced Immortal Law, and half a year ago he’d been killed by a fierce ghost.
Now, seeing Lin Feng felt to the girl like seeing her father again. Her expression was very sweet and pleasing. She was currently an orphan in the village; her mother had been taken by a fierce ghost a hundred years ago and her whereabouts were now unknown, while her father had gone out at night to fight the ghost in order to rescue her mother and was found dead in the forest the next day. In short, it was all very strange, and everyone said her parents had been killed by fierce ghosts.
The girl was now fifteen, just at the age of maturity.
When she saw Lin Feng today, she wanted this savior before her to avenge her parents. Even if this man did whatever he wanted to her, she would absolutely not regret it.
The little girl brought over a basin of hot water, then started to wash Lin Feng’s face.
She was about to begin her whole day’s work, which was feeding goat’s milk to the unconscious man so he wouldn’t starve to death, and also because food could help him recover from his injuries.
This was something people had to do every day. Because Lin Feng drank so much goat’s milk, he would pee, so the villagers used the way they raised children and put a diaper on Lin Feng.
They just had to change his diaper to solve the problem of pee and poop. Since he only drank goat’s milk, Lin Feng would only pee and not poop, which saved them a lot of trouble.
Just as the girl finished changing Lin Feng’s diaper, his eyelids suddenly trembled a little, as if there was a hint of him waking up.
The girl thought she was seeing things, so she didn’t pay much attention. But when she was putting the diaper on Lin Feng, he suddenly woke up.
"Girl, what are you doing!" Lin Feng saw the girl on the bed at this moment, her legs spread as she squatted on the mattress, while his pants had been taken off by someone.
Looking at Lin Feng’s shocked expression, the girl, holding only a pure-hearted mindset, said to him, "Are all you outsiders this thin-skinned?" Seeing Lin Feng’s face flushed red, she really felt like laughing.
She was just changing a patient’s diaper, what was there to be so worked up about.
Lin Feng had originally wanted to ask what she was doing, but now he’d been countered by the other side. Lin Feng said, "Men and women should keep their distance."
The girl couldn’t help laughing and said to Lin Feng, "You’ve been in a coma these two days, and we’ve been the ones taking care of you. Whatever needed to be seen, we’ve already seen it all." The girl’s words were actually very pure, because she was providing medical care to Lin Feng. This was saving him; there was no other way.
When Lin Feng heard he had been unconscious for more than ten days, he immediately grew a bit depressed and raised his voice at the girl, "What, how long was I out?" Lin Feng’s eyes were wide at this moment, and he felt a bit anxious inside. He had no idea what he had gone through these days.
To treat Lin Feng, the girls had really gone to a lot of trouble, getting up early and staying up late to nurse him. Because they all had a wish in their hearts—that once Lin Feng woke up, he would wipe out those fierce ghosts harming the village.
When Lin Feng learned he had already delayed two days, he couldn’t help worrying whether he would still make it in time to save the members of the Heaven Alliance.
Thinking of this, he immediately sat up from the bed. The girl wanted to ask about his condition, but he completely ignored her and got up to head straight out of the house.
Lin Feng came outside. The scenery outside was surrounded by bamboo forest; this was a small village, with such small houses all around.
"Benefactor, you’re awake!" A man happened to bump into Lin Feng. Lin Feng was a little confused—he didn’t know this man at all, so how had he become his benefactor?
"I’m your benefactor? You’re not mistaken?" Lin Feng asked tentatively.
The man hurriedly nodded and said, "No mistake, how could I be mistaken? That night we were captured by fierce ghosts and taken to a ruined temple. The witch said you were the one who saved us."
When Lin Feng heard the man mention the ruined temple, he immediately thought of those two white-clothed, long-haired ghosts and then those few couples.
So it really might be that he had saved these people. Once the fierce ghosts were destroyed, they naturally came to no harm.
Lin Feng didn’t have time to chat idly here, and said to the man, "Since you’re fine, I’ll be going first."
"Young hero, stay." Because he had bathed in Bihua Heavenly Pond Water, Lin Feng was a bit younger-looking than before. He was just about to leave when a deep, steady voice sounded from the side.
Lin Feng turned and looked toward the person beside him. Several people had come; behind them was a group of men dressed like hunters, and leading them was a stubbly, middle-aged man with a face full of beard. Judging from his bold, sturdy build, he was quite the real man.
Lin Feng replied, "What is it?"
"Young hero, you just woke up, and we haven’t even had the chance to properly entertain you. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" the elder replied to him.
Seeing how polite they were, Lin Feng smiled and said, "No need for hospitality. I still have important matters to attend to and must leave right now."
The middle-aged man saw that Lin Feng was intent on leaving, so it wasn’t easy to press him to stay. But the village was being harassed by fierce ghosts, and in any case he had to think of some way to get rid of them.
The middle-aged man made a request to Lin Feng, "Young hero, as you know, our village is being harassed by fierce ghosts. We have never been able to track down the source. But if you go west from here, that direction is the most suspicious. We hope you’ll keep an eye out and help us find the source of the fierce ghosts."
Lin Feng answered, "I’m heading west along this route anyway. I’ll keep an eye out." Lin Feng had more or less accepted this job. He took a Spiritual Horse out of his Spiritual Beast Bag, mounted its back, and in just a few leaps the nimble horse had darted off and disappeared.
The middle-aged man was the village chief. He said to the people around him, "Our village is saved this time."
The mountain paths here were indeed a bit hard for ordinary horses to travel, but for a Spiritual Horse it was a piece of cake. Following the mountain road, Lin Feng arrived at a forest. Inside was a cave, and at the entrance four characters were written: "No Idlers Allowed."
This forest was very strange as well, as if it were shrouded in darkness all year round, not a ray of sunlight reaching the ground. In short, it was like nighttime, yet you could still see the surrounding scenery.
Lin Feng said to Hua Shengmi, "This cave is a bit strange. Why is such dense yin energy seeping out from inside..." As he spoke, Lin Feng’s face was solemn.
Speaking of yin energy, Lin Feng felt that the environment here was the same as when Peace City Forest had been occupied by wandering souls that year, the exact same scene.
"We’d better not go in. It’s so scary here." Hua Shengmi said to Lin Feng.
Hearing Hua Shengmi play cute again, Lin Feng said to him, "This time it concerns the safety of an entire village. I’ve accepted their request, so I naturally can’t go back on my word."
Seeing Lin Feng so determined and serious, Hua Shengmi couldn’t really stop him, and just said angrily, "If something happens later, don’t expect me to help you."
Once they walked into the cave, they discovered that many of the grasses here were glowing, lighting the cave up so it was very bright and clear. Looking at this bright, beautiful cave, Lin Feng realized it completely lacked the eerie feeling he had seen from outside.
On the contrary, it was filled with Spiritual Energy, because every glowing blade of grass here was actually a type of Spirit Grass.
"What kind of grass are these?" Lin Feng asked Hua Shengmi.
Hua Shengmi hadn’t intended to respond to Lin Feng at first, but seeing him ask about these grasses, she was also a bit curious.
"Never seen them before. But judging from the way they give off a glow, they should be plants grown from some kind of Spiritual Body." Hua Shengmi said this with utter seriousness.
