Chapter 147 “Disaster Star”
The money Cecilia gave to each citizen was not much.
It's not even half a gold coin.
These people actually had the guts to come back just for this little money.
Cecilia sighed and gave everyone money and dry food.
Some people just want money. "If you don't want dry food, can you give us more money?"
The person who said this was an old man over fifty years old.
She was holding a child in her arms.
The child looks under 18 years old.
She said she had escaped from somewhere, her son and daughter-in-law died on the way, and she didn't know if she would be able to go back in her lifetime.
It costs money to let children grow up, and it also costs money to find accommodation for them in the future.
She is old and doesn't know if she can still make money, so she longs for Cecilia, a kind-hearted person, to give her more.
A lot of people gathered around, and many of them shed tears after hearing the story told by the old woman.
But Cecilia didn't give her any more money. "Do you believe me?"
The old woman looked at Cecilia and said, "If you believe me, leave with me later."
Cecilia waited for the old woman to give her an answer. If the old woman insisted on asking for money, Cecilia would naturally give it to her.
Finally the old woman agreed.
Cecilia gave money to the remaining people and asked them to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.
Many people asked for Cecilia's name, hoping to spread her good name.
Cecilia did not hide it and told her real name.
Newspapers were still a luxury for ordinary people, and not everyone knew Cecilia's name and appearance.
Even in a city like Aslade, where the mayor knew Cecilia's name and appearance, his memory was still easily tampered with by black magic.
It was only much later that those who had received help learned that the girl named Cecilia was the current Queen.
But these are all things for later.
Fortunately, after this group of people left, only the wounded were left.
The old woman found a place to sit down while holding the child.
After finishing her work, Cecilia turned around and looked for the two people.
Seeing that the old woman was still there, Cecilia politely informed her, "Wait a moment, I'll take a quick look at the injured and then leave."
The old woman panicked, "You go ahead and do your thing, we are not in a hurry, not in a hurry."
The condition of the injured was slightly controlled with the help of magic.
As for whether she could fully recover, Cecilia had no idea.
Even though the medical technology of this era is backward, it still has its merits.
"Wait for me here for a while, I will bring someone to pick you up in a while."
Trust between people requires a process to build.
They saw the help Cecilia had just given to others.
To determine whether she is a good person, don’t look at what she says, but what she does.
Cecilia provides others with the most crude, simple and direct help.
Dry food can help people fill their stomachs, money can relieve temporary needs, and medicine can relieve their pain.
They looked at Cecilia with gratitude.
Even if Cecilia didn't come back, they couldn't say anything.
Why should others help me all the time?
Cecilia turned and left with the old woman.
Based on the tracking magic she had cast earlier, Cecilia quickly found the people Babbitt had given her.
Seeing Cecilia return safely, some people cried with excitement, "Thank goodness you are okay."
"We were almost scared to death. We heard the continuous noises and you didn't come back for a long time. We thought something happened to you and went to look for you."
The old woman looked at the people in front of her helplessly.
Cecilia introduced the two parties to each other first, "This is the poor person I met. You will take her to a safe place to stay. For the time being, she will follow us."
Then he introduced them to the old woman, "I know all these people. Don't worry, they don't have any bad intentions. If you find out what they are doing behind my back, just tell me."
The few people who had been silent just now now said in unison, "Yes, Madam, we promise to complete the task!"
Cecilia couldn't help but hold her forehead.
The old woman looked at Cecilia again, and after a long while she managed to utter, "You are already married at such a young age."
Cecilia wanted to explain, but was interrupted by the group of people again. Some people took the gift from the old woman, and some went over to support the old woman.
In short, Cecilia was not given a chance to interrupt.
Cecilia sighed and let them go.
"Leave two of you to follow me. There are two or three injured people over there. We need to take them away together to see if we can find a place to treat them."
"Yes, ma'am!"
After a discussion, two of them took the old woman away, and the other three followed Cecilia.
After a lot of trouble, when we returned to the place where the wounded had stayed before, the three of them were still there safely.
Cecilia couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Without further delay, we picked up the person and began to prepare to meet up with the rest of the group.
On the way to the reunion, Cecilia took another look at the information of the baby in swaddling clothes.
Cecilia seldom looked carefully at the information of passers-by in the system.
That's too much work.
Every time a person passes by, the system will automatically pop up a profile information in front of her.
If Cecilia watched every one of them, she would have nothing to do.
But the child just now was different.
Her name Cecilia was so familiar that it immediately attracted Cecilia's attention.
The system data says:
Name: Calista
Gender: Female
Age: 8 months
……
Cecilia remembered that after she became acquainted with Calista, Calista once said after drinking that not long after she was born, she brought disaster to the entire village.
All the people in a village died in a fire set by demons.
She was lucky enough to escape death because she was held by her grandmother.
But later my grandmother did not escape the disaster.
Still died at the hands of the demons.
Kalista would never forgive the demons.
But she couldn't forgive herself either.
She always felt that it was her birth that brought these disasters to the people around her.
She hoped Cecilia and others would stay away from her.
Cecilia proved time and time again that Calista was not a disaster, but a lucky star for their group.
When I saw the child’s name, I thought about what happened to him.
so similar.
If the old woman unfortunately died at the hands of the demons in two years, Cecilia would really doubt whether she was the reincarnation of Calista.
Of course, whether or not she was the reincarnation of the Calista she knew, she hoped that the old woman could live a long and healthy life.
Only in this way will Kalista not think of herself as a disaster for a long time to come.
He isolated himself and did not allow himself to interact with others, which resulted in him being abused and cursed by many people who spread rumors.
None of this was what Kalista should have to go through.
