After a long while, Er Er seemed to have come back to his senses, and the stern light was dissipating little by little. He lowered his head with empty eyes, and the breath around him slumped at this moment, and said in a low voice, "I understand.

, you all stay away from me, don’t let me infect you too!”

He had been feeling uncomfortable before, and his head was dizzy. He originally thought it was the fatigue caused by being hungry for too long, but he didn't expect that he had contracted the epidemic.

Especially when he saw the fearful and disgusting looks in the eyes of the brothers who had been together day and night, the second child felt that he had no hope of survival. After all, when he fled the famine, he saw how painful many sick people were, but he did not expect that he

This day actually happened.

"They have all been in contact with you, and I'm afraid they may have germs on them, so you all must stay here and observe and drink medicine!"

The second child was resigned to his fate in depression, when he suddenly heard a serious female voice in his ear. He looked up and saw that it was the woman from before, and the medicine bowl she was holding in her hand.

"This...is this a cure?"

During the escape, everyone even ate grass roots and tree barks. Where did the medicine come from? Now that a steaming bowl of medicine was handed to him, the second child was still in a daze.

The eldest brother on the side had already taken the medicine bowl from Xiang Jiuling's hand with ease and handed it to the second brother, "Second brother, drink the medicine quickly. Our brothers will be waiting for you to get better!"

"Yes, second brother, you will be fine soon!"

"Second brother, drink the medicine quickly!"

The other brothers also looked at the second brother with relieved expressions.

Holding the medicine bowl, feeling the silent care from the brothers, the second brother only felt his eyes were slightly warm, and then he raised his neck and drank it all.

Yes, he has endured so many hardships in the past, and he believes that he will definitely be able to endure it this time too.

Thinking of this, Lao Er's heart suddenly calmed down.

Although the best way is to stay where you are and observe, the weather is so cold now that you can't stay in this wilderness. The three of them were caught in a dilemma. Should they take them away or...

"Sir, miss, there is a ruined temple behind this mountain. We brothers have been living there during this time. There are also several refugees there. We can go back there for the time being!"

After hearing a few people talking, the boss took the initiative to make suggestions.

"That's fine!"

After discussion, the group decided to stay in the ruined temple temporarily, and then followed a few others to the ruined temple in the back mountain.

I don’t know how long this ruined temple has been abandoned. The yard outside is overgrown with weeds, and the walls are cracked. Only half of the temple door is left standing there alone. If you look at it at night, it will only make people feel creepy.

a feeling of.

In addition to their brothers, there were a few refugees living in the ruined temple, and they all looked wary when they saw strangers approaching.

Seeing the situation here, several people felt a little bit in their hearts. There were several people in this ruined temple whose condition was more serious than that of the second child. The eczema had spread to their faces, which was shocking at first glance.

"We all fled because of floods, but the nearby towns didn't let us in. Even if we knew we were sick, there was no medicine to treat our illness, and we couldn't find a doctor. There were more than 20 people in the temple, and now we are dying of the disease.

There are only a dozen people left who have starved to death."

Xiang Jiuling and Wen Xi had also experienced fleeing famine, so they naturally knew the hardships on the road. They had also seen many people die of illness and starvation on the road. When the court was in trouble, only the common people suffered.

Looking at the refugees huddled together to keep each other warm, the three of them felt a sense of sadness in their hearts. The world is unfair, and it is always the innocent people who suffer.

Since she decided to save people, this one and both of them were saved, so Xiang Jiuling simply included everyone in the rescue plan.

Fortunately, there was a big pot in the temple, so Xiang Jiuling asked his brothers to prepare firewood and water. He washed the big pot and placed it directly on the firewood. Then he took out the prepared medicine from the bag and made a pot.

Wen Xi and Wang Zhifu wanted to help, but Xiang Jiuling refused. She was the only one who could do the decoction. If she didn't do it well, it would be ruined.

There are more than ten people in the ruined temple, and they only need two pots of medicine to share.

After everyone took the medicine, Xiang Jiuling checked everyone's situation one by one and divided the infected and uninfected into two groups. None of the three of them lived in a ruined temple.

Seeing that Xiang Jiuling and his party brought food and treated them carefully, the refugees in the temple were so grateful that they spontaneously built a simple shed for them next to it the next day.

Xiang Jiuling had been busy all day, and when she rested, she only felt soreness in her waist and back. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that she hadn't felt this way for a long time, but she felt extremely fulfilled.

The next day, Xiang Jiuling got up early, and when she came out, she saw the prefect Wang walking back and forth in the yard with a worried look.

"Master Wang, why did you get up so early?"

Hearing the voice coming from behind, Wang Zhifu turned around and saw Xiang Jiuling, and sighed, "Hey, I can't sleep at all, so I might as well come out for a walk!"

Xiang Jiuling knew what Wang Zhifu was thinking. Their original plan was to return to Lin Jincheng as soon as possible to distribute the food, but they didn't expect that they would be delayed here. Moreover, the epidemic could not be cured for a while, but Lin Jincheng

There is no room for delay there.

After thinking for a moment, Xiang Jiuling said, "Master Wang, why don't you ask Brother Wen to take you to Lin Jincheng first? I will take care of these refugees here, and I will come over when they are well!"

Fortunately, these people's illnesses were not serious, and there was still medicine and food in her space. However, the treatment took time, and the Wang Prefect could not afford to delay here any longer. The best way at the moment was to split up.

Hearing such a proposal, Wang Zhifu couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and then he looked at Xiang Jiuling with apology and worry, "But you have to take care of so many people here alone, what if..."

"Sir, don't worry. I know well that the refugees here are ordinary people. They won't do anything to me. Now you have a heavy responsibility. There are so many people in Lin Jincheng waiting for you to go back. This is the place to be.

It has been delayed for so long and cannot be delayed any longer."

For Xiang Jiuling, Magistrate Wang and Wen Xi can't help here at all. It's better to go to Lin Jincheng to deal with important matters first. And these refugees are not treacherous and evil people. She only needs to give them medicine and food.

There should be no problem.

Seeing Xiang Jiuling's determined look, Magistrate Wang nodded after hesitation, "Okay, then do as the girl said, let's go back to the city first and then someone will pick you up!"
