Chapter 840 - Strange Village

“Ah Tawa, are the two of them awake?”

“Father, they’re not awake yet. Have you found the medicine?”

A ten-year-old girl saw the wooden door being pushed open and immediately stood up to walk over. The man called father was wearing a blue long-sleeved shirt, trousers of the same color, and a pair of black cloth shoes. He was carrying a basket on his back that contained some fresh herbs.

The girl named Ah Tawa had her hair combed into a double bun, a white short shirt with a vertical collar, a blue skirt, and a pair of yellow embroidered shoes on her feet.

Their attire was extremely simple and unsophisticated, very much like the attire of the ancient farmers. Although it was not complicated, it was filled with an unsophisticated charm.

“The medicine has been picked. Go and fry it. Remember to keep it down. When I asked for it today, I saw Ah Lang and the others patrolling the riverside again. It hasn’t been peaceful recently. The clan leader said that the prophecy is about to come true. I wonder when the legendary king will come?”

“Oh, okay. I have already changed them into our clothes. They shouldn’t be discovered.”

“Mm, it’s better to be careful. We can’t have outsiders in our clan. The people who were washed over by the lake earlier were all sacrificed to the heavens by the clan leader. These two children are so young. They’re so pitiful. When they recover, we’ll send them on a bamboo raft overnight. I heard that they’ll drift down the river and reach land.”

“Father, have you ever been to land?”

“Hahaha, silly child. Our clansmen have lived here for generations and aren’t allowed to go out. Outsiders aren’t allowed to enter either. How could I have been there?”

“Then how does Father know that there is land outside?”

“You are still young. You didn’t know what that person who was worshipped to heaven said before. It was just that no one believed it at that time. Alright, Hurry up and brew the medicine. I will watch over them.”

Ah Tawa sensibly took her father’s backpack and slowly walked towards the back of the bamboo house

All the clansmen in their entire village lived in bamboo houses like this. For generations, they had never gone out of the village.

Ah Gen looked at the two sleeping children and touched their heads. Fortunately, they did not have a fever. The two children looked so similar, and their hands were tied together with something. He did not even manage to split them with the sharpest axe.

However, looking at the two children, they were definitely brother and sister. This boy was half a head taller than the girl, and he looked very similar. Fortunately, he was the one who found them. If it was another tribe member who had found them... These two children probably would not have survived. Thinking of the clan’s rule that no outsiders were allowed to enter, he could not help but sigh. How many years had they been waiting for the legendary king? Could they really lead them to a new life? Could they really return to the prosperous capital that their ancestors had mentioned?

Who would the current emperor be? Would he allow them to stay?

Everything was so unknown.

“Ah Gen, Ah Gen, let’s go. It’s time to train the troops.”

“Hey, you’re here...”

Ah Gen pulled the blankets for the two children, slowly got up, locked the door, and walked out. Fortunately, they lived near the foot of the mountain. Other than another family, the other families were quite a distance away from here.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to bring the two children back.

“Ah Tawa, Daddy is going to train the soldiers. Take care of the house.”

“Got it, Father.”

After Ah Gen left, Little Treasure opened his eyes from the bed. He looked left and right. The things here were all strange. It was as if they had entered a bamboo house. There was no one around, and the blankets on their bodies were very heavy, but it was very warm. He was also wearing a strange outfit. Where were they?

“Da Bao, Da Bao, wake up, wake up.”

Da Bao was shaken a few times by Little Treasure. She slowly sat up from the bed and looked at her surroundings. She asked Little Treasure in surprise, “Where are we? Are we in the New World?”

“I think so. I think we were saved by someone. Do you remember? After we fell into the water, we were washed into the whirlpool, and then we don’t remember anything.”

“Yeah, I also remember that we fell into the whirlpool, and then we don’t remember anything.” “Do you feel any pain?”

“No, how about you?” “I don’t feel any pain either. Hey, look, our bags are still here.”

Da Bao followed Little Treasure’s hand and looked over. Yes, their bags were still there. Their bags were specially made, and they could float in the water as a life buoy.

The two children carried this bag and just happened to save their lives.

Everything here was extremely novel to the two children. There were no electric lights here, only kerosene lamps. There was no electronic equipment here. Other than a bamboo bed, there were a few big cabinets and a table. It looked extremely ordinary. Just as the two children got out of bed and looked around, the door opened from the outside. A 10-year-old girl came in with two small cups made of bamboo.

Seeing that the two children did not have time to run back to the bed, she immediately said in surprise,”You’re awake? That’s great.”

Seeing a young girl who was not much older than them appear in front of them, they naturally slowly let down her guard.

Da Bao’s mouth was always sweet. She immediately opened her mouth and said to the young lady who was dressed a little strangely,”Sister, did you save us? Are you wearing ancient clothes? I’ve never seen Aunty wearing such clothes in Uncle’s life.”

Ah Tawa heard Da Bao say something about ancient clothes. She lowered her head and looked at her own clothes. She thought that there was something wrong with them, but when she realized that everything was fine, she smiled and went over with a cup in her hand.

“It was me and my father who saved you. This is the herb that Father secretly got for you. Drink it quickly. You’ll recover quickly after drinking it. Both of you had a fever before, so these herbs are very effective.”

The two children could smell the bitterness of the medicine even before they drank it. They frowned, but seeing that this young girl had saved them, they still picked up their cups and drank.

After Little Treasure finished drinking, he said to Ah Tawa, “Sister, can you lend us your phone? I want to call my father.”

“Phone? What’s a phone?”

Hearing Ah Tawa’s words, Da Bao immediately said to Little Treasure excitedly,”Look, we’ve really arrived at the New World. It’s also written in the Adventures of the Earth’s Core book that the New World doesn’t have those electronic devices. There’s no phone, and there’s no computer.”

Little Treasure was deep in thought. He was lying to Da Bao when he said that it was Adventures of the Earth’s Core. Could it really be so coincidental?

“Sister, my name is Fang An. She’s my little sister, Fang Le.”

“No, I’m the big sister. You’re the younger brother.”

Da Bao was unhappy and immediately corrected them. However, Ah Tawa looked at the two little ones. They were about the same age as the children in the village. They were really cute.

She didn’t care what the two children were arguing about. She smiled and said, “My name is Ah Tawa, and my father’s name is Ah Gen.”

“Sister, what is this place?”

“This is our village. My father and I found you when we were fishing by the river. Our village is...”
