The old man's son said that if Lin Beichen felt this matter could not go on because his father had passed away, he could choose to leave; the villagers would not force him. Hearing this, everyone's hearts grew heavy.
Looking at the villagers, a surge of responsibility rose in Lin Beichen's heart. He took a deep breath and firmly declared that he would keep his promise and fulfill the old man's wish. His words moved the villagers deeply; they admired Lin Beichen's breadth of heart and compassion even more.
The old man's son also expressed deep gratitude to Lin Beichen. He thanked Lin Beichen for helping his father leave in peace, and for thinking of the villagers and helping them escape their plight.
Lin Beichen nodded, accepting everyone's thanks. Then he began to carry out the rainmaking ritual, working hard to ease the drought in the village. With his help, the villagers finally escaped their sea of suffering and began to live a good life.
