Coming in from the door of the house was a ten-year-old child. The child was wearing coarse linen clothes. The clothes were very simple. There were even many patches on the coarse linen clothes. The clothes had been washed and turned white. The child looked a little dark.
, has a very thin figure, and her shawl hair is tied into a ponytail, making her look very capable. Her eyes reveal a maturity and indifference that belies her age.
In his hand, he held a dark pottery bowl.
He strode over and saw Wang Can wake up, with a look of joy on his face and said, "Are you awake?"
For children, it’s Indian.
Although Wang Can was not very proficient in Hindi, he went to India on a mission in later generations and studied it for a period of time, so he could speak a little. He explained: "I woke up, where am I?"
When the child heard this, he was immediately overjoyed.
He said: "You must be hungry. Come on, drink this bowl of porridge first."
In his pottery bowl was cooked porridge. It was said to be porridge, but in fact, in Wang Can's opinion, it was just like rice soup. There were very few rice grains in it. One look at this, and Wang Can knew the child's family background.
Not very good either.
The child handed the pottery bowl to Wang Can. Wang Can wanted to stretch out his hand, but couldn't muster the strength. A smile appeared on his face and he said, "Please feed me."
"Well, I'll feed you."
The child held the pottery bowl and tilted it little by little to Wang Can's mouth.
"Gudong! Gudong!"
Wang Can didn't know how long he had been unconscious, but he was really hungry, so he gulped down the porridge.
When Wang Can was drinking porridge, Wang Can clearly saw the child swallowing his food with a greedy look. The child was also very thin, which was caused by malnutrition at first glance.
Seeing this situation, Wang Can was moved.
The child was hungry, but it was quite difficult to get a bowl of porridge for him.
After Wang Can drank half the bowl, although he was not full, he said: "I'm full. You can drink the rest of the porridge."
The child said: "Okay!"
With a smile on his face, he held the bowl in both hands and drank the gruel in big gulps.
After the child finished drinking, Wang Can asked: "What is your name and where is this place?"
The child replied: "My name is Paka. I am an orphan. This is Maiti City. Uncle, who are you? How did you fall into the river? If I hadn't seen you floating on the shore, you would have been washed away.
gone."
Wang Can smiled slightly and said: "Thank you for saving me. I am a businessman. My name is Wang Can. When I was on my way with my goods, I encountered a tornado at sea and was washed here. Little Paka, thank you for saving me.
.”
"You're welcome, saving you is what I should do."
Pakka answered with a smile.
There was a curious look in his eyes, and he said: "Uncle, you are a businessman. Have you traveled to many places? What is the scene outside our Maiti City? I heard some troubadours say that in a very far away place, there is a noble city.
In the Frost Kingdom, there is the most noble king there. Even in the far and far east, there is a more noble emperor, so what is it like?"
Wang Can smiled and said: "If I have a chance in the future, I will take you to see it."
"Really?"
There was a look of joy on Paka's face.
"real!"
Wang Can answered affirmatively and said: "You saved me and you have done me a great favor. In the future, I will take you to travel to various places and let you meet the envoys outside."
"OK!"
Pakka felt happy and thanked her loudly.
Wang Can asked some more questions, but little Paka was young and an orphan, so he didn't know the situation at all, so Wang Can couldn't ask anything, and after talking on the phone, he felt extremely tired.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Paka did not ask any more questions and let Wang Can rest.
For three consecutive days, Wang Can didn't go out.
During this period, it was Xiao Paka who kept looking for food. Sometimes it was two lumps of rice, sometimes it was gruel. Three days later, Wang Can recovered and was able to walk normally. This day's meal
After dinner, Wang Can walked out of the room with the help of Paka.
This was the first time Wang Can walked out of the room.
For the first time, he could look around the place where he lived. It was a mud house and it was the most remote place.
Pakka supported Wang Can and said, "Uncle, where do you want to go?"
Wang Can said: "Just take a walk nearby."
Paka supported Wang Can and walked around the neighborhood. Wang Can hurried back to his residence without seeing anyone. After a simple recovery, he was ready to improve his life.
These days, I have been eating lightly.
Not even meat.
Wang Can looked at Paka and asked: "Paka, when you rescued me, what else was there with me?"
Pakka said: "Uncle, when I rescued you, your clothes were all in tatters. When I changed your clothes, I saw a piece of jade. I put it away for you. I will give it to you now."
Finally, Paka ran to the corner of the house, opened a box, and took out Wang Can's worn armor and a piece of jade from Wang Can's body.
When Wang Can saw this, there was even more appreciation in his eyes.
It is most admirable that this kid Paka has no greed when encountering such a treasure. To put it bluntly, any item on Wang Can's body is priceless.
If you sell it, you can at least get some money.
Wang Can looked at the tattered armor and said, "Little Paka, when you rescued me, didn't you see the weapon?"
"No!"
Pakka shook his head and answered directly.
Wang Can took the jade and said, "Paka, our life in Maiti City begins with this piece of jade. Are you familiar with Maiti City? Do you know where there is a pawn shop where you can exchange jade for money?"
When Pakka heard this, he quickly shook his head and said: "Uncle, when I was walking around the city, I also saw people in pawn shops. I know that this piece of jade must be extraordinary. It must be a very important treasure to you and cannot be pawned casually.
Already."
Wang Can touched Pakka's head and said with a smile: "Pakka, you have to remember that any treasure in the world is dead. Only people are alive and living well. This is the most important thing. Let's go.
, you lead me the way, we go to the city."
Paka said: "Uncle, do you really want to go?"
"Well, let's go!"
Wang Can smiled and nodded.
For Wang Can, he did not put this piece of jade on his body at all. When he was in Shu Kingdom, he could say that there were countless such jade stones.
Paka also stood up and walked out.
Under the leadership of Pakar, Wang Can left and headed for the center of Maiti City. From his residence to the center of Maiti City, it took half an hour. Wang Can saw the city of Maiti City.
profile.
The city wall of Maiti City is nearly three feet high.
The city wall is made of rammed earth, not paved with bluestone. After seeing it, Wang Can roughly understood the situation. This Maiti city is a small city, the southernmost city in Magadha. (To be continued)
