Chapter 235: The Plague
The two ladies rushed over and blocked their father's way and said: "Dad, I won't stop anyone in our village who wants pickles, and I can't give him a little bit even if these two and a half immortals are killed, this kid is too angry, he opposes me everywhere, and it is a pipe dream if he wants our things!"
Seeing that he was so ignorant, the father of the second lady pushed the second lady away and reprimanded: "Do you know how old you are? Do you think you are still a child?
Pushing away the two girls, he went to the house to get pickles, and the two girls saw that they couldn't stop their father, so they lay down in the yard and cried: "Dad, you can't give him pickles...... I just can't give it to him, woo...... Woo...... Woo...... If you give it to him, I, I, and I will not live......。 ”
Saying that, the two girls rolled on the ground, and their bodies were covered with dirt and grass clippings. The father of the second lady came out with a small bowl from the house, and some pickles came out of it, and when he saw the virtue of the second lady, he was angry: "You are not a bad thing! Get out! What have you become!"
The two girls stopped crying, and stood up with their hands on their buttocks, lest their father come over and beat him again, and ran out a few meters away and jumped on their feet: "Erban Immortal, you are a bastard, you have pimples in your throat when you eat our pickles, and you grow up to bubble, and you can't pee out of shit! Now I can't let you take away my pickles! If you take them, I'll lie on your kang and won't leave!"
The first half of the immortal laughed and said, "I want to go to you, anyway, my family lives in a shack, and the plastic sheeting leaves are spread on the ground." Just lie down, just don't be too embarrassed. ”
The second half-fairy didn't care that the two girls were crying and making trouble, so they took the pickles and walked out. The second lady wanted to chase after him and grab the pickles, but was stopped by his father: "If you don't fight for something, be careful if you mess around and be careful that I will beat you!"
The two girls hated the two and a half immortals, and sometimes they twisted their faces on the street and pretended not to see it, even if they met head-on, they couldn't escape, and the two girls spat on the ground, and muttered vigorously: "Hmph, I've seen a shameless person and really haven't seen any shameless one, go to someone to eat and eat and don't give it, and take it from others." I'm not afraid of getting esophageal cancer after eating! I'm not afraid of having a son*, the sky has eyes, look at it!"
The second half-immortal didn't want to meet him in general, so he pretended not to see it and avoided it. The second half immortal understands in his heart that he would rather fight with people who understand than quarrel with confused people. After arguing with the two girls for a long time, he couldn't make him ugly, which made the neighbors laugh. With the temper of the hob meat of the second lady, no matter how patient you are, I am afraid that you will also be blind and light the lamp, in vain.
The two of them have a grudge.
Originally, this was the end of it, but the resentment between the two of them was far from over.
The water in the village has been removed, and gradually there is government relief, and people can continue to live despite the hardship. The floods have caused people to basically collapse in the past few days. A plague is gradually spreading in this area, and it is no wonder that people eat water-soaked grain, and some of it is moldy and spoiled, and the grain is reluctant to throw away. In addition, the drinking water is also dirty water after the big water, and even the water in the well is full of water left by the flood.
The water was soaked in feces, animal carcasses, human carcasses, and messy filth, and people drank it without getting sick?
People have a lot of rumors that half of the people in such and such a village died in one night, and those half are still bedridden. Immediately afterwards, it was rumored that there were also a series of deaths in the nearby villages. The people who are making trouble are panicked, as if they are facing a great enemy.
The old village chief also heard about this, and was also worried that the plague would also spread in the village, so he hurriedly discussed with the experienced old people in the village what to do. The old people were also confused, and they were so energetic that they scratched their heads, and in the end they had no choice but to say, so they just asked the five aunts of the goddess who went to see the incense in the village to come up with an idea.
The old village chief glared at that time: "We are now a new society and a new country, how can those who engaged in feudal superstition in the past listen to her? You are all old and confused!"
When the old people heard this, they all said: "It's not that we are superstitious, isn't there no way to do it?" Some people have rushed to the hospital when they are sick, but the government's ambulance team has not yet come. We have to figure it out ourselves, or the ambulance team will come and we'll all die. Try it, but if it doesn't work!"
The old village chief was also worried that he was a party member and cadre, and if he wanted the higher-level leaders to know that he supported the people who had been goddesses to prevent the plague, it would be a trivial matter, and if he didn't make trouble, he would have to go to jail. But for the sake of the life and death of the people, I really can't think of any way, so I have to try.
The old village chief said to the old people at that time, you go to do the work of the fifth aunt, let her do it freely. I secretly support pretending to be deaf and dumb, don't do it under my banner, otherwise I will fall into blood mold.
Of course, the old people understand the good intentions of the old village chief, and they all say that they are strict and will not let you worry, and your support itself is a big risk.
When the old people went to explain their intentions, they scared the fifth aunt and said: Spare me, let me live a quiet life, for the sake of the children are still young, don't be embarrassed for me. I'll never dare to do that again.
The old people patiently do the work for him, this is not your own business, it is a major matter of the lives of the old and young masters in the village, do you watch you guard your own fight and watch everyone disappear one by one! You can bear it? Are you still a member of the Dadi Village? Where is your conscience? Besides, with the support of the old village chief, what are you worried about? You must put the overall situation first, don't always worry about your own gains and losses, and the interests of the big guys in the village are paramount.
In this way, the fifth aunt has no idea, so can she see death or not save her? Even if the whole village is gone, she can't live. If you don't try to let everyone scold me for the rest of my life, even if I survive, I will spend the rest of my life in repentance, then I will be more miserable, it is better to die with everyone!
The fifth aunt pondered for a long time, and at the same time, under the repeated persuasion of the old people, she finally made up her mind to try her own means. In any case, I am also a citizen of Dadi Village, and I am worth taking risks for everyone!
The fifth aunt finally agreed to think of ideas, and everyone was quite happy. The fifth aunt wrote down the steps and methods of curing the plague on paper, and then went to do it seriously. Here's how:
1: Soak in water with three large, medium and small roots, and a small piece of calamus, then use this water to cook rice and boil water to drink.
2: Use the above drugs to add a small pinch of prunella vulgaris, a tangerine peel, and three pieces of ten mulberry leaves to boil water for the whole family to drink.
3: Put the willow branches into the purified water of the 1 method, sprinkle it on the body of the person and the front and back of the house, the above method can prevent the plague, etc., I hope that all the people who are destined to be able to chant every night: "Namor Guanyin Bodhisattva" thousand voices are better, free from suffering and happiness, the country and the people are safe, and the wind and rain are smooth.
When the old people got the recipe of the fifth aunt, they hurriedly went to the old village chief to discuss and find a way to exchange the medicinal materials. The old village chief scattered people and went to various pharmacies in the county to find these flavors of traditional Chinese medicine, which was originally an extremely common medicinal material, although the pharmacy was also damaged by flooding, but it didn't take long to be complete.
The plague came quite quickly, and before the people woke up, some people in the village showed symptoms, and the old village chief did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed the method of the fifth aunt. Although there was a barefoot doctor in the village before the big water, he was also a half-farmer and half-doctor in the village, an old man in his fifties, who knew a little about medical treatment, but it was not as good as Xiaomei's two strokes later.
The family feeds two black pigs, and carries a basket made of wattles to get vegetables in the field every day. As soon as the water came and washed the pig away, he frowned and looked at the pig to build a house for his son to marry a daughter-in-law, and the thought was all in the soup. It's really a blind sight, forcing my old man to a dead end.
The plague was raging in the village, and he was too disheartened to take care of it. The old village chief also pointed at the tip of his nose and scolded: "You are still a leader in the village, everyone treats you as a person, but you don't drill into the crowd, and you tear down your face one by one! You are so old, you really fell into the well with two catties of noodles, and you lived in vain!"
The old man was also stubborn, his eyes were stunned, he stomped his feet and said angrily: "The sky is almost falling, my father and mother are married, everyone takes care of everyone, so do you have the heart to take care of this and that? I can't give a few jobs that day, I'm not uncommon to do it, you like to find whoever you like!"
The old village chief said at that time, Dadi Village does not have your seed! Without Zhang Butcher, everyone may not still eat hairy pigs!
If you want to say that the recipe of the five aunts to smelt the plague, it can't be said that it has no effect, and it still played a certain preventive role at first, but the plague is too powerful, and it can't be stopped at all when it spreads rapidly, and there is no special medicine for a while. The fifth aunt's recipe has no effect, and there is gradually an epidemic in the village, typhoid fever, and the second lady is also in the plague.
At this moment, the old village chief was really anxious, how could such a rapid plague be obtained? If it really can't be stopped, the whole village will fall ill in half a month. Wouldn't it be that the whole village peasant died, and the old village chief's eyes were red with pain, and his cheeks were narrow and thin like a lampstick. Day and night, the party members and cadres in the village were recruited to withdraw, and people asked the fifth aunt for advice, and the fifth aunt also grinned and sighed. There is really no power to return to heaven.
The fifth aunt also has no education, but after liberation, she went to a literacy class for a few days, and she didn't even finish school. It's hard for her to be able to figure out that recipe with memory, no matter how much you ask her, she can only shake her head and wave her hands to worry.
Just when everyone was at a loss, someone remembered the two and a half immortals. At that time, Erbanxian had not yet practiced medicine, but only helped each other among the neighbors in the village. It's nothing more than a child's crying, a headache, let the two half immortals think of a way, they all know that the ancestors of the two half immortals are practicing medicine, and they must be more or less influenced by medicine, and they should know more about the art of disambiguation than ordinary people.
One is that the two and a half immortals were also hairy young men at that time, and no one looked at him in their eyes, so how many medical skills can you read as a young man?
At this time, things are urgent, someone remembers him, and there is no choice but to rush the ducks to the shelves.
