Fang Zilan smiled bitterly to herself, and over time, she became accustomed to it. So she could find ways to get rid of the plague, but just sit back and wait for death from the poison.
Just because she felt that there was no cure from the beginning, including for herself, she always felt that one day she would be handed over for her life, so she was not afraid of death and traveled all the way until now...
"Young lady, you seem to have figured it out?" The doctor waved his hand, "If you have figured it out, go get the medicine quickly. Don't waste time."
Fang Zilan nodded numbly, turned around and was about to leave. The doctor shouted behind her: "Be careful with the prescription, don't break it..."
Only then did Fang Zilan notice the prescription she was holding tightly in her hand. The thin piece of paper was full of marks when she pinched it, and even the words on it looked crooked.
An extraordinarily ordinary stroke of writing, written on almost rough papyrus, carries the hope of saving people's lives.
It turns out that light things, as long as they are placed in people's hearts, can sometimes weigh so much.
Fang Zilan turned back and waved to the doctor: "Don't worry, I'll be back soon and I won't miss your medicine."
"Okay." The doctor responded, breathed a long sigh of relief, and walked quickly into the house again.
Awan, who was standing by the door, saw this scene in his eyes, his eyes were moist, and he immediately chased after him without looking back, "Wait a minute!"
Fang Zilan stopped. Awan was running unsteadily, but still asked aggressively: "Have you never believed that I can keep you alive?"
"I..." Fang Zilan opened her mouth, and Awan snorted heavily, "I knew it. If you don't believe it, I'll make a bet with you."
"What kind of bet?" Fang Zilan was stunned, and Awan said resolutely: "Just bet that I can at least ensure that one person in Taoyuan Village lives well."
Fang Zilan was silent for a while and then said: "I believe you."
Awan raised her eyebrows with satisfaction and stretched out her hand, "Bring the prescription, let me take a look."
"What do you think?" Fang Zilan couldn't help but ask, and Awan nodded and said, "I think you can give it a try. The gentleman you just talked to can write such a prescription, so he must be a good doctor with superb medical skills. Wait I’ll go find him and discuss it next time.”
"Okay, then I'll go grab the medicine first." Fang Zilan took back the prescription and was about to leave when she saw Awan stuffing another prescription into her, "There's also this, thank you for your work."
Fang Zilan took it respectfully and took the medicine together. Then she listened to A Wan and the doctor's instructions, boiled water and brewed the medicine. After four or five days of tossing, she finally stabilized Xia'er's poison.
As for the village chief's family, the youngest son could not survive and died in the early morning of the sixth day.
Fang Zilan only heard a cry and walked over quickly. Before knocking on the door to ask, she heard the sound of very light footsteps. She looked back and saw Zheng Yan standing outside the courtyard from a distance.
"Why are you here?" Fang Zilan ignored the movement in the house and turned around to open the door for Zheng Yan. "Is it because the road to Shi County has been cleared?"
Zheng Yan nodded, "Master Zhuge asked me to ask you if you are willing to go with him?"
"I want to go, but..." Fang Zilan paused as he said, "Wait for me, I will take the sword and follow you there."
Inside the house, Awan was giving medicine to Xia'er. When she saw Fang Zilan coming back in a hurry, she asked casually: "But someone in the village chief's family died?"
"Probably." Fang Zilan took the plum sword, and Awan looked serious, "Where are you going?"
"Shi County." Fang Zilan pursed her lips, "Awan, you stay here. If I never come back, you can follow Zhuge Yu back to the capital. You don't have to wait any longer."
Awan didn't say anything, and watched Fang Zilan's figure disappear in front of her eyes, feeling even more uneasy.
According to what Lu Tian said, among the ten palaces, King Bian Cheng and King Ping Ping were both in Shi County, and no one knew what was going on inside. In addition, Zhuge Yu is also on this trip, so Fang Zilan must give priority to protecting him, fearing that she will not take care of herself...
Zhuge Yu, who had the same idea as A Wan, had prepared guards early. Except for a few who stayed in Taoyuan Village just in case, he took all the others with him.
When Fang Zilan saw so many people behind Zhuge Yu, she laughed dumbly and said, "Master Zhuge, what a huge battle."
"If they can make the girl feel this way, their trip will be worthwhile." Zhuge Yu looked at Fang Zilan steadily and said word by word: "After entering Shi County, please put yourself first and be careful."
"Okay." Fang Zilan responded. Just as he was about to lift his feet, he saw Zheng Yan blocking the front, "Girl, just follow me."
Fang Zilan smiled helplessly and without saying anything, followed Zheng Yan and entered Shi County with Zhuge Yu, followed by dozens of people.
Soon, Lu Tian's group, who were waiting for an opportunity, followed. Fang Zilan and Zhuge Yu exchanged glances, and both saw that the other wanted to wait and see what would happen, so they allowed them to follow.
Shixian County is full of the smell of corruption. At a glance, the land is covered with scorched earth and no grass grows, like a hell on earth.
"Girl!" Before Zheng Yan finished speaking, Fang Zilan had disappeared.
Zhuge Yu clenched his fists and ordered: "Follow her, and the others will join me to find out if there are any survivors."
Everyone responded, and Zheng Yan quickly caught up with Fang Zilan, "Girl, don't be anxious, maybe..."
"No one survives when someone goes to hell." Fang Zilan's deep voice pulled Zheng Yan's heart to the bottom. He calmed down and asked, "Miss, do you know where the county government is?"
"I know." Fang Zilan kept walking. She had read the map of Shi County several times before this trip and had already memorized it. Even if it was burned to ashes, she still knew where the county government office was.
Zheng Yan followed Fang Zilan for a long time, and suddenly saw her stop, "Girl..."
He stopped as soon as he opened his mouth. Ten steps away from them, something was squirming, it seemed to be a person...
Fang Zilan walked over slowly. The people on the ground had many burns all over their bodies, and their tattered clothes were stuck to the burned skin. However, they never made any sound and just crawled forward persistently.
Feeling someone approaching, the man on the ground stopped, raised his head and looked over. Half of his face was bloody and bloody, and his only eye was filled with disbelief and resentment when he saw the person.
"Zixiu!" The people on the ground shouted the name hysterically. Fang Zilan looked indifferent, "King Pingping, long time no see."
King Pingping stretched out his palm, which was so burnt that he couldn't recognize his fingers. Before he could touch Fang Zilan, she avoided him gently and deftly. "What, you want me to save you?"
"Can you?" King Pingping's voice was smoky and hoarse, revealing an unspeakable ferocity.
"Tell me where Mr. Su Heng is." Fang Zilan looked down at the King of Equality, who was neither human nor ghost, and said coldly: "I will give you a pleasure."
