"Madam, will my son leave me like his father? Please, please, please save my son!"
"It doesn't matter if you let me be a cow or a horse, as long as you save my son."
Xu Qiyue did not speak, but walked to Zhou Chenghai's side and whispered:
"Master Zhou, please ask someone to come over here and guard us. The villagers here are infected with the plague."
Zhou Chenghai's face instantly turned pale.
The plague is highly contagious and cannot be cured.
If so many people are infected, will everyone here still have a chance to survive?
Unexpectedly, he avoided being killed by snakes, insects, rats, and ants, he escaped being hunted by wolves, and he avoided being overturned and destroyed by an earth dragon.
He even escaped harm from a tiger.
Will he eventually die from the plague?
With a heavy expression on his face, he went back there and found several officials. They stood at the entrance of the cave and did not allow the villagers to leave.
At first, the villagers did not react. When the old village chief saw the official guarding the entrance of the cave, he asked:
"Sir, what do you mean by this? Do you want to trap us here?"
Xu Qiyue returned to the child and said:
"Auntie, you don't have to be afraid. The child is infected with the plague. I guess his father is also the same. If it's not symptomatic, he won't be cured."
boom……
The villagers exploded instantly.
"What? Plague? Don't scare us."
"Yes, isn't that a common cold infection?"
"We rarely go out to the village, how could we catch the plague?"
…
The villagers talked all over the place and backed away.
"May I ask the village chief, have there been a lot of snakes, insects, rats, and ants in your village recently, before the Earth Dragon turned over?"
The old village chief then fell into memories.
It was a very frightening scene. Groups of snakes, insects, rats, and ants suddenly appeared like they were going to a market. No matter how hard they rushed, they couldn't catch them all.
Then in the middle of the night, the ground dragon turned over. Fortunately, the ground dragon turned over was not very serious. Only two uninhabited thatched houses collapsed in their village.
The old village chief nodded:
"Yes, yes, yes, yes. Later, those snakes, insects, rats and ants also hid somewhere and suddenly disappeared again."
The old village chief suddenly thought of something, "You mean, the plague was brought here by those snakes, insects, rats, and ants?"
Xu Qiyue nodded, "I guess so."
"It's not just this child who is infected, it's all of us here who are infected, but with slightly milder symptoms."
"Everyone, do you feel a little bit headachey now?"
The villagers were shocked at this time.
If that's the case, doesn't that mean that none of them will survive?
The villagers in the cave all started crying. This time they really wanted their Xinghua Village to be wiped out.
A man immediately stood up and shouted: "I want to get out, I don't want to wait here to die, let me out."
The officials remained motionless.
Zhou Chenghai whipped him to the ground, "We're out, what next? Will we be able to live after we get out? Or can you save yourself?"
The man was left speechless by the question.
Yes, what about after you go out?
Find a place where no one is around and die slowly?
You can also be with your fellow villagers here.
He put down his struggling hand, returned to where he was sitting with a dull look in his eyes, and began to cry. A grown man cried like this.
There is fear of death and helplessness about the situation.
Xu Qiyue stood up and said warmly: "Don't be so depressed, I have a way to cure you, but please cooperate with me."
"Now it's not just you, if it can't be cured, my family and I won't be able to survive either."
"If you go out and everything is covered with water, where can you go?"
"If you meet other people and infect other people, why not try here first to see if my method works?"
When everyone thought about this, they all became quiet.
"Everyone should dry their clothes first to avoid catching cold, which is even more uneconomical."
"I will go pick some herbs first and come back. After drinking it for the first time, you guys should feel better."
After saying that, Xu Qiyue walked out of the cave.
As soon as she raised her head, Xiao Beihan's tall figure enveloped her, and he naturally held her hand.
Xu Qiyue knew that with Xiao Beihan's ears, he must know what was going on inside.
But he still stood here waiting for himself without hesitation.
A warm current in my heart flowed through my whole body, making me feel warm.
Feeling the warmth in his hands, I suddenly felt at ease.
The two of them put on their coir raincoats with tacit understanding and walked into the darkness.
When it was dark deep into the forest, Xu Qiyue took out a flashlight, and with a "bah" sound, the surroundings lit up.
Immediately afterwards, various herbs were pulled out from the medicine field in the space and piled aside with soil.
To perform a show, you need to do a complete set. It is still raining now. When you take these herbs back, you can only bring them with mud and water to make them real.
After dilly-dallying for a while, he took all the herbs back to the cave, handed them to Zhou Chenghai, and said:
"Master Zhou, please clean these herbs, boil them out, and let everyone drink a bowl."
"Treatment for those who are sick and prevention for those who are not sick are always beneficial."
Zhou Chenghai didn't know why he actually believed in Mrs. Xiao in front of him. After receiving the herbs, he made arrangements.
At the same time, someone went to the forest to cut some bamboo and cut it into sections, which were used as temporary bowls.
After the soup and medicine were boiled, they were packed with bamboo sections and distributed to everyone's hands.
The Feng family and the Fang family didn't want to drink it at first, but when they heard that there were villagers infected with the plague living next door, they drank the soup faster than anyone else.
In the final analysis, they are a group of people who are greedy for life, afraid of death, and lazy.
The villagers didn't need to say anything at all. This was their only hope for survival. They took the initiative to help divide the soup and drink it.
Both the Tan family and the Meng family believed in Xiao Beihan's family, so they took the soup and drank it without any complaints.
This is especially true for the Xiao family.
Now the backbone of their family is Xiao Beihan and Xu Qiyue. As long as they say anything, the female members of the Xiao family will believe it.
The rain outside was still accompanied by thunder, and it kept falling. The sky seemed to have opened countless holes, and the heavy rain formed a waterfall and poured towards the earth without stopping.
Late at night, the cold seemed even worse.
Fortunately, there was still a fire burning with charcoal, otherwise I don't know how I would have survived this long cold night.
