Douluo's Fire

Chapter 256 Brick Village

The sickness of the old man's body was entirely caused by overwork and the lack of timely replenishment of nourishing medicines.

In this day and age, very common.

Ordinary people have to work a lot just to live, whether they go to the fields to farm, go hunting in the mountains, or become servants of the nobles.

No matter what kind of job it is, after working frequently and not getting enough rest and nourishment, the body will have some problems accordingly.

So I added a recipe of medicinal soup to the books on the treatment of common diseases that I compiled.

The price is a bit expensive, and ordinary people can't afford to drink it every day, but they can afford it once a week.

Not to mention that it can prevent those who become sick from overwork, at least it can make them feel better and their health will not become poor.

But the old man in front of him has obviously never drank that bowl of medicinal soup, or he has never heard of it. The medicinal soup I gave him to cultivate his body is the formula in the book.

But the old man in front of him had never heard of it at all, and there was only gratitude and nervousness in his eyes.

Ye Li just urged the light to sort out the problems in the old man's body where he couldn't see, and immediately made him feel much better, and accepted Ye Li's request to go to his village.

This place is different from the Heaven Dou Empire, Ye Li may bring disaster to them if he stays in the village for a while.

The soul masters who were tricked into testing his defense strength along the way were all nobles from the Heaven Dou Empire.

This is true regardless of the soul king in black robe or the soul saint in black robe.

It's just a piece of news that they don't know if it's true or not, and they dared to take the risk to attack Ye Li, so they can know the degree of resentment towards Ye Li in the hearts of those nobles.

It is very likely that as soon as Ye Li left, they poured their anger on the ordinary villagers.

And here is the Hall of Spirits, they have only one most important pillar to maintain their power, the strength of the soul masters themselves.

So I don't care too much about whether ordinary civilians have a lot of knowledge.

Force is the most important way for them to maintain power.

It is also the most important reason why Ye Li can enter their village and promote the popularization of books without worrying about them being implicated.

The village where the old man lived was not far from here. After the carriage rolled over the creaking wooden bridge, it came to a village called Brick Village.

There are no soul masters in Brick Village, and when Ye Li appeared at the gate of the village, it aroused onlookers and fear.

Both curious and scared.

With a faint light in his eyes, Ye Li scanned all the villagers in front of him, and shook his head after the body data flowed in his heart for a while.

When the head of this village came with some of his clansmen, Ye Li shook his head inwardly.

However, Ye Li had expected such a thing, otherwise he would not have trained special people to teach literacy and carry out literacy campaigns.

"Shi Ying, the head of Brick Village, welcomes you to Brick Village."

Bei Gong bent down, and the village head of Zhuantou Village bowed his head to Ye Li and smiled apologetically when he was far away. At the same time, he made a wink behind his back and asked his nephew to drive the villagers away, so as not to block the eyes of this adult.

Ye Li's clothes were clean, and he was guarded by men in black robes who were not easy to mess with at first glance. What is it if he is not an adult?
The village head obviously had a lot of prestige in the village, and in the area controlled by the Wuhun Temple, the soul master's majesty was also very strong, and soon the villagers were afraid and wanted to leave.

Glancing at their terrified expressions, Ye Liwen said, "You don't need to leave, I'm a doctor, and I'm just here to promote common knowledge about diseases."

The voice was very gentle, and when it reached the ears of the villagers who were afraid to leave, it inexplicably warmed their hearts, and felt that Ye Li's words were very credible.

And at this time, standing behind Ye Li, the old man who was the guide also stood up, nodded quickly and said:
"This little brother is really a doctor. Everyone knows about my chronic cough, but after being treated by him, my throat feels much better, and I don't cough much now."

The old man is from Brick Village, everyone can be regarded as a fellow villager, and they all know the old man's physical condition more or less.

Looking at it now, although the old man's face is still pale, he didn't cough when he spoke just now. This discovery stopped the villagers who were about to leave.

It was Ye Li who stopped the villagers. The village chief of Zhuantou Village didn't dare to offend Ye Li when he saw this, so he apologized and didn't say anything nonsense.

He even encouraged those villagers to stay. This adult came to give benefits and help Ye Li gain the trust of the villagers.

"Village chief, is there a relatively open place in the village? It is suitable for many people to attend classes together."

"Yes, yes, there is a very open land opposite the ancestral hall in the village, which definitely meets the requirements of adults."

For the village head, Ye Li's words must be satisfied, so the village head just thought about it for a while, and then said the emptiness opposite the ancestral hall.

"Okay, let's go now, and ask the village chief to call all other villagers who are free in the village."

"That's what it should be. It's our great fortune that adults can come here to popularize the knowledge of diseases. Shi Ying will definitely call all the villagers in the village to listen to adults' teachings."

Ye Li looked at the village head's apologetically smiling face, and gently corrected his words, "It's enough for the villagers who are free, don't disturb their farming work."

"My lord is kind."

In the village, the greatest resistance to literacy is not the ruler of the empire, but the group of people who occupy the power of the village and try their best to charm them.

However, sometimes resistance can be a boost, as long as it is used properly.

Today's sun was exceptionally mild. When most of the villagers who were free were called over by the village chief, there were quite a few people standing sparsely in the open space outside the ancestral hall.

Seeing that most of the villagers came, Ye Li didn't talk nonsense, but directly erected a big blackboard with the word "disease" written on it.

There are not many people in the village who can read, so Ye Li also added a lot of pictures on it to start the introduction of this literacy.

What kind of situation can make the villagers listen carefully and realize the importance of literacy?
Two situations.

The first is life.

Most people cherish their lives, and those who are willing to sacrifice their lives at any time are a minority after all.

So when I heard what Ye Li said was closely related to their lives, and they were all common diseases in their lives, my dissatisfaction disappeared immediately.

Instead, he listened to Ye Li's explanation very seriously.

Some of their loved ones would not have died if they had known that the cures for these common diseases were so simple.

The second situation is food.

People eat for food.

Food is definitely the lifeblood of farmers in this era.

Once the two words of increasing production are mentioned, the enthusiasm of the villagers will definitely soar to the sky!
