Chapter 41
Ye Lan checked and found that the woman was starving and skinny, her wrists were as thin as a child's, and she was already unconscious.

Without saying anything, he immediately poured a bamboo tube of water to the woman's mouth, and asked her to drink it.

Compared with the previous two, the woman is actually much better, at least she is not sick, she is completely hungry.

The water she gave was not all space water, it was mixed with half of the water in the bucket, which was enough to make the woman feel better.

Sure enough, the woman woke up not long after, and the couple cried together, thanked Ye Lan a lot and left.

More and more people came forward to beg for water. Of course, Ye Lan didn't give it to everyone. Her water was only given to those who needed it.

It's just that her water was a little too old, and the refugees didn't notice it when they were begging for water, but Xia Beiming, who came over at some time, was suspicious.

After saving so many people, it is unreasonable that the toilet water is only half gone.

Xia Beiming stared at Ye Lan inexplicably, and had a bold guess in his heart that this girl had a secret, and it was an unknown one.

Otherwise, it is difficult to explain that the refugees fleeing famine along the way died or were injured, but their siblings are still alive and well, and they even took in people.

If he read correctly, there was a mother and daughter with them last time, and Ye Lan was the main one in everything.

When she said to go, they followed, and when she stayed, the mother and daughter didn't refute, and followed her obediently without saying much.

If Ye Lan has no ability, it is impossible for them to treat her with such low eyebrows.

Of course, Xia Beiming didn't want to expose Ye Lan, but was just a little curious about what secret was hidden in her body.

Is it this constant flow of water?
"Okay, there's only so much water left, I have to keep it for myself, my brother, my aunt and cousin at home have to rely on it to get to the Mingzhou capital."

Xia Beiming was engrossed in his thoughts, when he suddenly heard this, he looked at her, but directly met a pair of bottomless eyes.

There was an inexplicable tremor in his heart, not fear, but a feeling that even he couldn't explain clearly. He felt that a woman with such a pair of eyes was not easy, and he couldn't help wanting to know more.

Ye Lan looked away lightly, feeling vigilant in her heart, this person surnamed Xia was not an ordinary refugee, and the refugees might not be able to discover her secret, but Xia Beiming was different.

Just now he was staring at himself, no, to be more precise, his eyes were fixed on the bucket.

That's right, she was so focused on saving people that she ignored the weight of this bucket of water. It's no wonder that after saving so many people, there is still so much left over.

In the end, when she noticed Xia Beiming's arrival and began to suspect her, the last water she gave was really just from the bucket.

She deliberately left some in the bucket, just to convince the refugees that she really ran out of water, so she kept some for herself.

This is normal now, and she can't ignore the safety of herself and her family in order to save others, so that the refugees will no longer block her.

It's just that the guy not far away is a bit tricky. He has "saved lives" to their siblings, so it's not good to just ignore his existence.

Then she thought again, she had just saved this person before, so it was even, why should she treat him as a benefactor.

Then he shook his head again. Not only did this man save them, but he also gave them money. During the journey, she used the money he gave to buy a lot of food and seeds. Generally speaking, she still owed the other party.

With short hands, she really couldn't completely ignore Xia Beiming, which made Ye Lan a little annoyed.

After a while, I finally made a decision. Since 8 can't ignore the other party, then face it calmly.

As long as this Mr. Xia doesn't trouble her, she can still be kind to him. After all, it is fate to meet him once.

She nodded at Xia Beiming, and just when Xia Beiming thought Ye Lan would walk towards him, the little girl turned around and left.

Xia Beiming was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, and sighed that this girl is really different.

"My lord, the water is gone, I left two pouches for us, what are you looking at?"

Bu Fan was left behind by Xia Beiming to distribute water to the refugees, so he didn't see what happened here. Seeing Xia Beiming staring in one direction, he couldn't help asking.

Except for some refugees in tattered clothes, there seemed to be nothing that could attract the eyes of their young master.

Xia Beiming coughed lightly: "Ahem...it's okay, have all the refugees been given water?"

When Bu Fan heard this, he immediately replied with a bitter face: "How could it be possible to get all of them? There are too many refugees. The well is being sold every day, and the last remaining ones are all in the house."

"I can distribute the water to the refugees who participated in the operation, and the last one will be distributed to those who did not participate. It's just that there are too many people to divide the water."

"Besides, I saw a lot of new faces and listened to their comments. They said that they heard that we are dividing water here, so they came here on purpose."

"It's a pity that we don't have much water here, and we don't even have enough refugees here. It's useless for them to come here."

"Young master, why don't we vote again?"

Xia Beiming glanced at Bu Fan and said nothing. It's easy to say another vote, but it's definitely not easy to do.

The people who occupy the wells in other places must have got the news and have taken precautions. It will be extremely difficult for them to launch a sneak attack or something.

However, the refugees tasted the sweetness, and they were not satisfied with the little water they just got. They found Xia Beiming again and asked him to lead them to seize other wells.

"Master Xia, we are all family members. The little water we got yesterday was only enough for the whole family to calm down. One mouthful per person will be gone."

"It's impossible to go to Mingzhou, so can you please lead us to get some water."

"Don't worry, we will obey your orders, you give way, and you will never take half a step back."

"Master Xia, we can't survive, so we came to you with the cheek, please help us."

Xia Beiming didn't speak. He would never forget what happened before. These refugees were disorganized and selfish. They even pushed Bu Fan into the well.

As for him, if Ye Lan hadn't rescued him in time, he would have been seriously injured now, and it would be impossible to say whether he would survive.

However, the words taught by the master kept flashing in his mind, he told him to love the people like a son, and let him heal those suffering people...

Xia Beiming sometimes wondered, isn't that what those in power should do? Why did his master teach him these things?
No one told him the answer, and when he asked, the answer was simply "you'll understand later."

Just as he was thinking about it, another group of people walked in outside. He recognized them and had a good impression of them.
