Chapter 373 Be Kind
Almost everyone here was skinny and just like a skeleton. They were seemingly in severe malnutrition. It seemed that if the wind blew them, they would be blown away. There was no sense of security.
Everything here showed a sense of poverty. It even could not be comparable to the most backward villages in Celestial Empire.
“I don’t know there is such a place of poverty in the world.” Daniel couldn’t help saying with emotion while looking at the people here.
He was born into a noble family that had a large enterprise. He was never worried about eating and drinking, and his money was too much to use up, so he had never seen such a place like this.
They couldn’t finish eating delicacies of every kind, while the people here were worried about the basic food. This was the gap between different people, which could not be balanced.
“I think it is related to the war in their country.” Wang Feng said and sympathized with these people.
It was not very far from the large battlefield. If a country went to war, people there would definitely suffer a lot, because once the war broke out, it meant that the masses had no means to live.
“Forget it. We can’t manage this kind of thing. We’d better find a way to get out of here first.” At this time, Rupert said, which made Wang Feng and others nod their heads.
How many places of poverty were there in the world? If they sympathized with people in every place, then they could do nothing but sympathize.
Just pulling over a person optionally, Wang Feng and others directly asked how to get out of here. Of course, they used the most widely spoken language which was English in the world.
It was just that people here didn’t seem to understand English. When the local person said something, it couldn’t be understood by Wang Feng and others at all.
Just after listening to him for a long time, Wang Feng did not understand even one sentence at all.
Looking at Daniel and others, they also smiled bitterly. It seemed that they couldn’t understand what this person was saying, either.
“These people here seem to be some indigenous people, and they can’t understand us.” Eric said, which made Wan Feng and others helpless.
It was hard to meet some people, and how could they run into difficulties in language communication? This really made them feel very speechless.
After spending a long time with this person, they got nothing and couldn’t understand what he was talking about at all.
“It seems that we can only find a solution by ourselves.” At this time, the Sixth smiled bitterly and said.
“Are you the people from the WS?” Just as they felt very distressed for language barriers, suddenly, another voice in English came over, which was not very fluent. A thin middle-aged man appeared in their sight.
“I am from the WS. Can you understand what I am saying?” Seeing that someone knew English, Daniel rushed forward in a hurry.
“I once studied it when I was young, but I am not very proficient, and I can barely understand.” The man responded with a bitter smile.
“That’s great.” Unexpectedly, they met a person who could speak English. Daniel and others showed their happiness.
“I ask you one question. How can we get out of here? Our plane crashed in the desert, and we could not find a way out.”
“Then you are not hurt?” When he heard Daniel’s words, the middle-aged man was concerned about them obviously and believed that it was true.
“We are fine, but we have to hurry to find the way back, in case our family will worry about us.”
“Walk along this road, and you can get to the city. There is an airport, which can send you out.” The middle-aged man pointed to the road under their feet and said.
“Thank you.” Finally, they found the city. They all showed happiness, but soon Daniel asked this person in confusion, “Since you can speak English, why should you stay here? Don’t you know that you will die at any time when you stay here?”
“Ho-ho, I am the mayor now. Do you think that I can leave here?” The man explained with a bitter smile.
“This place is so poor that it even can’t meet the basic needs, such as food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation. It is the poorest place I have ever seen in the world.” Daniel said, which made this person smile more bitterly.
“Since you are not people in our country, then you’d better leave this place where you are apt to get into trouble as soon as possible. Now, war has broken out in our country and can come here at any time. Hurry up to leave here.”
“By the way, you are so tired. There is a donkey cart in our town. It can send you to the city for free.”
“It’s okay. We can go there by ourselves.” It took only two days to get there. This was nothing for them at all. They could persist even if they walked for another ten or fifteen days.
It was just that this place was so poor. This person still insisted on staying here. They did really admire this person in their hearts. He was still worried about them with such bad living conditions. Didn’t he think for himself?
“How about this? Since you are the mayor here, I will donate one million dollars to you in my own name. I want to give you a check. Can you redeem it?” Suddenly, Wang Feng stepped forward and said.
The reason why he chose to donate money was that he felt the kindness of this person. If not, Wang Feng would be too lazy to take care of such a business.
“You shouldn’t have done that.” When he heard Wang Feng’s words, this person was shocked and said with rejection hurriedly.
“I don’t donate the money to you. I see people here are all sick and haggard, so I will give you the money to let you take them far away from here. Go as far as possible. Find a place to settle down and make a home. Don’t you want to think about them even if you do not think about yourself? I believed that you should know what to do.
“This...?” When he heard Wang Feng’s words, this person was in a dilemma. One million dollars! He had never seen so much money in his life. If he really had the money, he could take the people in the town to the resource-rich areas and let them all have a good life.
However, just as the saying went, no gains were without pain. He had no reason to accept the money.
“Each of us will also donate one million dollars, so it adds up to seven million dollars. You accept the money and take all the people you can take nearby to have a good life.” At this time, Eric and others also opened their mouths and said. Nobody was mean.
A million dollars was little for them, but this sum of money had the potential to save a lot of people, and it was a good thing.
“How many people are there nearby?” Wang Feng asked.
“As far as I know, there are probably thousands of people.” The man thought for a moment and then replied.
“Well, you keep the money and take all these people away.” Saying this, Wang Feng and others directly signed the checks and handed over them into the person’s hand, which made him shocked.
Seven million dollars was a huge sum that could not be imagined. He was very excited now and did not know what to say.
Say no? Just as Wang Feng said, even if he didn’t think about himself, he should think about others. It was very poor indeed here. This was a place full of hunger. Starving to death happened every year.
If he had the money, he could take them to have a good life. Although they would not be very rich, three meals a day could be guaranteed.
“Please wait a moment.” Holding the checks, the person said suddenly, turning back and running away.
“He shouldn’t run away with this money, right?” Suddenly, the Seventh said with worry.
“I don’t think so. I believe he is very kind. If someone like him wants to lie to us, the money will be regarded to feed the dogs.” At this time, Rupert said.
After waiting for about five minutes, suddenly, a large number of people ran out of the town, which made their complexions change slightly.
Did he know that they were rich so that they wanted to rob? Wang Feng and others had such an idea in their hearts.
But the idea was directly overturned in their hearts without lingering for five seconds, because these people in front of them knelt shipshape, which made them moved.
Why did they kneel?
“Please stand up. What are you doing?” Quickly walking to them, Wang Feng quickly helped the middle-aged man stand up.
“Thanks for your generous donations, and all of us are grateful to you. You are the saviors in our view. Please accept my worship.” When saying this, this person wanted to kneel down again.
It was just that Wang Feng’s hand was holding him tightly, so he had no chance to kneel down.
“It’s needless to thank us. The money is nothing to us. Please stand up.”
“Hold the money and take them away. We are leaving, too.” Saying this, Wang Feng let loose this middle-aged man and waved at Daniel and others.
“Benefactors, take care of yourselves all the way.” Seeing that Wang Feng and others wanted to leave, this person didn’t stop them anymore because he had to migrate with thousands of people, which was a big event. He had a lot of things to do.
They watched these seven people leave, and then these people took their gaze back.
Of course, because of the kind action that Wang Feng and others did today, they set up seven statues in the place where these people settled later. The seven statues were the seven people of Wang Feng’s team.
“We seemed to forget to ask them how far it was from the city just now.” After walking for about ten minutes, suddenly, Daniel said awkwardly.
“Forget it. Let’s hurry up, and we will be able to get to the city soon.” Wang Feng urged and said.
Anyway, the money had already been donated. As for how those people would be on earth in the future, it was not what Wang Feng and others needed to care about. This matter was quickly forgotten by them. No one mentioned it anymore.
It was indeed a mistake that they did not ask how far the city was on earth. Because they walked for almost two days. During their trip of hundreds of kilometers, they saw nothing, but the poverty of this country.
In their mind, the city seemed to be unable to reach forever. It was really distressing.
After almost four days of walking, they finally came to the so-called city, but this city was very run-down. It even could not be comparable to the small county of Celestial Empire.
Walking on the asphalt road of this city, Wang Feng and others were all relaxed. They rushed into the nearby supermarket to buy a lot of food in a hurry.
After a gorging meal, they started to inquire about the airport. Since it was a city, there were more people naturally, so they could easily find someone who could speak English and showed them the way to the airport.
“We finally can leave this place.” Looking at this run-down city, Eric said with emotion.
After a few days of walking, they were really too tired. They felt it was even more tiring than the previous training of Owen.
Although Owen’s training often made them feel that there was only a step away from death, they still had good food after they woke up. They could have a rest.
But in this place, they not only were injured, but also walked on the battlefield for so many days. They rushed and walked while enduring the hardships of a long journey for so many days. One day seemed like a year indeed.
Fortunately, the days of pain were finally gone. They were going to leave.
