Just as everyone was worrying, someone exclaimed, “There’s a wild elephant coming over! Everyone, be careful!”

Jin Chang’s heart skipped a beat. His heart told him that something had happened and he hurriedly ran over to check on the situation. Following that, he heard someone exclaim, “There are people on the back of the elephant!”

Jin Chang subconsciously shone his flashlight over and saw two children lying on the back of the elephant!

Jin Chang immediately told everyone to be careful and that they shouldn’t hurt them. At the same time, his mind raced on how to calm the elephant down and save the children.

At that moment, the elephant suddenly squatted down and wrapped the two children with its nose.

Upon seeing this scene, everyone was so frightened that they didn’t dare to make a sound. They were afraid that they might accidentally provoke the elephant and cause it to hurt the children.

However, to everyone’s surprise, the elephant did not seem to have any intention of hurting the children. Instead, it gently placed the children on the ground before taking a few steps back and turning around to leave!

Hearing the sound of the elephant’s footsteps leaving, everyone looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.

Since when was a wild elephant so easy to communicate with?

No matter what everyone thought, Jin Chang had already run over. He did not need to take a second look. Just by looking at their clothes, he knew that these were his two children! Jin Chang quickly checked the two children, only to discover in shock that the children had just fallen asleep!

Little Sun was even dreaming, smiling happily.

Jin Jiatong was the same…

Jin Chang was truly stunned. What was going on? Unfortunately, no one could answer his question. The only elephant who could answer had left.

At that moment, the villagers came over as well. Upon seeing this scene, they marveled.

Then, everyone carried the children and left the forest together.

No one saw a white-robed monk standing at the top of the tree. The monk pressed his palms together and gave a Buddhist proclamation before turning to leave.

The night passed very quickly. The next day, just as the sky lit up dimly. Jin Jiatong and Little Sun woke up almost at the same time and lazily stretched their backs. Then, they slowly opened their eyes and exclaimed in shock.

“Gosh, why am I at home?” Jin Jiatong yelled.

“Heavens! Is this my home? It’s so beautiful. Wow! Haha… it looks so beautiful. I can see it! I’m not dreaming! Ah? That’s not right. Shouldn’t I be watching fireflies on the mountain? Why am I home?” Little Sun looked confused.

Then, Jin Jiatong ran to Little Sun’s room. The siblings exchanged looks and saw the shock in each other’s eyes.

At that moment, Jin Chang heard the commotion and ran over. When he saw his children awake, Jin Chang hugged his children and sighed. “Thank god that the both of you are fine.”

“Daddy, we’re fine. We’re fine!” Little Sun said happily.

“You mischievous imp!” Jin Chang pinched Little Sun’s little face before looking at Jin Jiatong who was beside him with a serious expression. “Since you’re all fine, I need to reprimand the two of you! The two of you went overboard this time!”

After an hour of lecturing, Jin Chang went to school. He specially took a day off to accompany his children. However, there were only two teachers in the school. If he didn’t go, his wife wouldn’t be able to handle it.

After Jin Chang left, Little Sun sneakily said, “Brother, why didn’t you mention the matter about Master? Dad said that good children don’t lie.”

Jin Jiatong said, “I didn’t lie. I just didn’t mention it. Besides, didn’t you not mention him either?”

Little Sun said in a daze, “It’s mainly because I don’t know if what I saw yesterday was a dream or real… I can’t explain it clearly. I might as well not say it.”

Jin Jiatong said, “Indeed, it’s hard to explain. What happened yesterday was too miraculous… Since that’s the case, this is our secret. We will never tell anyone. How about it?”

“Alright, alright! However, Brother, when you grow up, I need to look for Master. I feel that he is the one who cured my illness,” Little Sun said.

Jin Jiatong smiled and said, “Alright, I want to return such a big favor as well. We’ll go look for him together.”

…

The news of the wild elephant saving the child spread like wildfire, and the media caught wind of the news and came. At that time, someone had been recording. It showed the video of the wild elephant putting the children down… As the video spread, many people praised the elephant for being intelligent, calling for everyone to protect the natural environment.

It was also from that day onwards that the villagers of Qingla Village had a 180-degree change in attitude towards the wild elephants. When they saw the elephants, they no longer wished to chase or scare them away. Instead, they hid and allowed the elephants to do whatever they wanted.

However, what surprised them was that when the elephants entered the village in the past, they just went straight through, eating whatever they got and trampling everything in their paths.

However, ever since that day, the wild elephants never entered the village. Instead, they trumpeted at the village entrance. It was unknown what they were doing.

When they went out the next morning, they realized that there were many bananas piled at the village entrance!

Amidst their pleasant surprise, the humans also attempted to prepare some food and place it at the village entrance.

As expected, the elephants came at night again and finished the food. They trumpeted before leaving.

This seemed to be a transaction, but it also seemed to be a form of interaction. In short, from that day onwards, people liked this kind of transaction—even though these guests were a little too gluttonous…

However, after the news got out, netizens began volunteering to donate money. There were even tourists who specially came to Qingla Village to watch the transactions between humans and elephants. And if the tourists wanted to watch the transaction, they had to pay a certain amount of money, such as buying some of the food for the elephants…

It was also from that night that Qingla Village underwent a drastic change. More and more tourists came, and the poor village began to prosper because of tourism. At the same time, people knew that all of this was brought by an elephant. Therefore, the Qingla Village elevated elephants to an inviolable position. The entire village provided for them.

With Qingla Village growing rich, the school was rebuilt. More and more teachers were recruited, and Jin Chang became the principal…

Everything seemed so natural.

Only the two kids knew that all of this was not a coincidence, nor was it a matter of course. Someone had helped them. However, this was their secret. They did not tell anyone about it. They just silently faced the sky and pressed their palms together. “Thank you, Master.”

“Achoo!” Fangzheng sneezed.

As the saying goes, sneezing is contagious. When he sneezed, the elephant opposite him sneezed as well!

After sending the siblings away, Fangzheng began to deal with the elephant—it was a silly child who had lost his herd.

In his words, he had lost his way. He panicked and when he encountered humans, he would instinctively attack out of fear. Actually, he was quite afraid when he attacked…
