A blind and a lame man's story

Once, somewhere in a village, there lived a blind man. One day that village caught a fire. All the villagers/people ran away from the village. In the same village there also lived a lame man. The blind man said to the lame man, “you have eyes but you can't not <em>(use "cannot' or "can't")</em> walk. I have feets but I cannot see. Lets Come and sit on my shoulder.. You show me the path and I will walk. To do so will save both of us( is it also correct writing – Doing so we both will be saved)” (you could use "To do so will save us both" or "Doing so will save both of us"). Both did the same and efficiently went out of the village. 

Pls check it for correction also.

[<em>Good job!  There were minor problems with punctuation and forgetting to use "the" in some places, but I was able to read and understand it easily.]</em>
