Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 24 Refugees

Sand and stones danced in front of his eyes, and roots rubbed against his cheeks. Manda rode on Worm's back, crawled in the cave for a long time, and finally got out of the ground.

Sphinx ordered Manda and Worm to contact the old Yaman. They were sent because Manda was too smart but not honest enough, and Worm was honest enough but too honest.

Worm was injured, unable to fly, and unable to climb fast enough, and Manda suffered a lot along the way.

Cleaning up the tree roots on his head, digging out the sand in his ears, and spitting out the earthworms in his mouth, Manda followed Worm out of the forest. There is a small river ahead, Manda wants to wash his face, but Worm stops him.

"Keep the sludge and mix it with the beggars, so that no one will find it. This is the order of the Sphinx. Nars may have planted eyeliner nearby."

The country of Romalu, one of the most powerful countries in the Oligino continent, has the most vast land, the largest army, the richest royal family and the most beggars.

This year, there is little rain and the harvest is not good. After paying the autumn tax, a large number of farmers have become refugees and are on the road to beg for food.

Not long after walking along the path, Manda and Worm joined the ranks of refugees. Manda, who had just emerged from the mound, was not conspicuous at all among them, and his body smelled better than theirs.

No one knows where this group of refugees will go, even they themselves don't know. If it weren't for the flesh and blood on their bodies, Manda even suspected that they were zombies walking on the road.

Among this group of people, there was a little boy who looked very special, about five or six years old, with a rare breath of life on his dirty face.

He grabbed a woman's hand and walked forward vigorously. The woman should be his mother, just like everyone else, numb, dry and dead.

"I'm not hungry at all, I'm really not hungry, we'll be there soon," the boy held his mother's hand tightly, "I heard from that uncle that if we walk for a while, we'll find the village and there will be something have eaten."

Mother nodded numbly as a response to him.

Seeing his mother nodding, the little boy regained some strength. After walking for a while, he turned around and said, "Mom, I'm thirsty, can I have some water?"

Mother shook her head, she didn't even have a kettle on her body.

"It's okay!" The little boy licked his lips, "I'm not thirsty at all, really, I'm not thirsty at all."

There was a well at the end of the path, and a group of refugees rushed up desperately. A man held a bucket and poured it into his mouth desperately, not only to quench his thirst, but also to fill his empty stomach.

The little boy squeezed into the crowd and begged for a bowl of water with all his strength. He happily held the wooden bowl and was about to run to his mother when a strong man slapped him to the ground.

"Go away, go away! You bunch of dirty bugs!" The strong man beat the refugees with a stick and shouted loudly, "This is the well of Lord Saurons, you have polluted the well water, Get away!"

The refugees quickly hid aside, and a few people who looked like servants laughed loudly.

"Look at him like that, it's really scary."

"He was beaten up by the housekeeper, and he happened to vent his anger on these bugs."

The little boy lay on the ground, trembling to retrieve his wooden bowl. Seeing this, the strong man stepped forward and crushed the wooden bowl.

The boy held his mouth and cried out loudly, the strong man shouted: "Shut your mouth immediately, believe it or not, I peeled your skin!"

After speaking, the strong man raised the wooden stick.

Manda looked at the scene in front of him coldly. The boy's mother was beside her. She wanted to save her son, but she was afraid to go forward.

Even his mother doesn't have the courage to protect him, who else will help this poor little guy?

Manda sighed, and was about to bow his head and go on his way, only to find that Worm had disappeared.

The strong man's stick never came down, which gave Manda a bad feeling, and when he turned his face to look again, Worm was already standing behind the strong man, grabbing the strong man's wrist.

This is unscientific, shouldn't bugs be cold-blooded animals? Isn't he usually very cold? Did Typhon's anger mutate the bug?

Manda rubbed his eyes, and saw the furious burly man slowly turn his head.

"Old man, do you want to be a hero?" Worm's face was indeed older, and the strong man spat on his face, "Take your dirty hands away, believe it or not, I'll turn your head off... "

With a scream, accompanied by the cracking sound of bones breaking, Worm twisted the strong man's wrist.

The refugees let out an exclamation, and several servants watching the excitement looked at Worm in astonishment.

They wanted to come up to help, but they were a little scared. The strong man with a broken wrist cursed loudly: "You are finished, wait for death! Do you know who I am? Lord Solons will take your flesh piece by piece..."

Worm kicked the strong man in the ribs, grabbed the strong man's head, and hit the ground hard.

"You, don't go, when the adults come, he will take you..."

Worm patched the strong man's face again, and the strong man spit out two teeth, lying on the ground without moving.

This bug is too vicious, and Manda really wants to know how Master Solons will punish Worm, but he just won't let him finish his sentence.

The servants dispersed in a rush, and the refugees gathered their strength and scrambled to escape. The mother took the opportunity to rush up and hug the boy, and Worm took off the water bag and brought it to the boy.

The mother hugged the boy tightly, shivering, and lowered her head, pretending not to see it.

The boy quietly stretched out a hand from his arms and took the water bag.

Worm took out a loaf of black bread from his arms and stuffed it into the boy's hand. The boy broke half of it and gave it to his mother, and then ate it hungrily with the remaining half.

I don't know if that guy is dead or not, Manda wanted to check the condition of the strong man, but found that the strong man had long since disappeared.

Manda stepped forward and patted his mother on the shoulder, which made her spit out the bread she ate in her mouth in fright.

"Take your children and get out of here, they may come back at any time."

Worm was still looking at the child, and Mandala tugged at the skirt of his shirt: "We should go too."

...

Under the setting sun, Manda and Worm walked on another side road. After a long silence, Worm finally spoke.

"Sorry to make you hungry, I only brought that little food."

"What does it matter," Manda laughed, "Old Yaman will at least treat us to dinner."

"Yaman is his real name, and his god's name is Hydera."

"Hydra..." Manda recalled the contents of the divine tree, "You mean Hydra?"

Worm nodded and said: "He is very cunning and good at using poison. You can't eat any of his food, and you can't even drink a sip of water."

...

At nightfall, the two arrived at a village. The first longhouse at the entrance of the village was the old Yaman's home.

When seeing Worm, Old Yaman was really surprised: "Old friend, why are you here? Where is Sanjila?"

Sanjila is the earl's messenger and a first-order believer of the Harpy. She usually communicates with the old Yaman. She was seriously injured in the temple accident.

"Sangira was injured, and something happened in the valley." Worm replied truthfully.

"What happened?" Old Yaman said eagerly, "Come in quickly, drink a bowl of hot soup and talk slowly."
