A Lu Zhi looked at the old woman and asked, "Aunty, then why are you still here? Are other villages' situations the same as this village?"
The old woman sighed, looked at the sky and said, "I am an old woman who can neither work nor walk anymore. Why should I follow and burden others for an uncertain possibility? It is still better for me to stay and guard the ancestral land until my last breath. As for other villages, most of them have been abandoned, or there are only a few old people left like this village."
Hearing what the old woman said, A Lu Zhi finally knew why there were only these old people left in this village. No wonder he hasn't seen anyone else around for so long. What's more, this village looks desolate and too quiet, like a dead place.
After getting the information they needed, A Lu Zhi smiled at the villagers and said, "Thank you for answering our questions. I wish you a happy life. Goodbye."
