Chapter 370: Xiao Qi's hesitation
Seeing that there was a window with a light on, Qin Xiusheng had the attitude of trying it out, and walked over just to find that it was Xiao Qi's room. At this time, Xiao Qi was sitting at the table, not knowing what he was thinking. When he saw Xiao Qi, he couldn't help but exclaim.
Although Qin Xiusheng's voice was not loud, the village was quiet in the middle of the night, and it was still heard by the townspeople in front of the door and the Xiaoqi in the house.
Xiao Qi turned her head to look at the window, and when she saw Qin Xiusheng standing outside the window, there was obviously a hint of surprise on her face, but it was immediately replaced by worry.
Hurriedly walked to the window and opened the window, Xiao Qi asked anxiously, "Seminary, didn't I tell you not to come back, why did you come back again?"
Before Qin Xiusheng could explain, there was a sound of footsteps from the gate. Xiao Qi's face froze, and he said in a deep voice, "It's not good, the townspeople guarding the door heard your voice just now, hide quickly!"
Qin Xiusheng nodded hurriedly, he was very aware of the consequences of being discovered by the townspeople, and hurriedly hid in the shadows.
The townspeople came over and found Xiao Qi standing by the window, and the window was open, so they hurriedly ran over to inquire about the situation, "My lord, there seems to be movement here just now, did you find any suspicious people?"
Xiao Qi pretended to be calm and shook his head, and replied, "I've been standing by the window, and I haven't noticed any suspicious people outside. It was my voice just now, and you guys are suspicious. ”
The two townsfolk in charge of guarding looked at each other, and one of them frowned and said, "My lord, what I just heard is obviously a man's ......"
Before the townspeople could finish speaking, Xiao Qi raised his eyebrows and asked in a cold voice, "What, you mean that I am deceiving you?"
The townsfolk hurriedly shook their heads, and defended themselves a little anxiously, "Of course I didn't mean that, but ......"
Xiao Qijin stiffened his face and asked seriously, "But what? Do you want to say that I am a suspicious person? Do you want to lock me up for interrogation?"
Seeing that Xiaoqi was angry, the two townspeople were all frightened. The two hurriedly shook their heads in denial, and at the same time kept apologizing to Xiaoqi.
Seeing the two apologize, Xiao Qi's face looked a little better. She waved her hand and said in a deep voice, "Enough, I will not pursue it if you are also for the safety of the town." Go back to the gate and keep watch, and don't get suspicious at the slightest movement. ”
The two of them nodded again and again, and returned to the side of the gate.
Hearing that there was no sound, Qin Xiusheng came out of the darkness.
"Xiaoqi, I haven't seen you for a long time. Qin Xiusheng smiled at Xiao Qi and said.
Xiao Qi gave Qin Xiusheng a big roll of his eyes, and whispered to blame, "You're embarrassed to say that I haven't seen you for a long time." The townspeople don't want to capture you, the devil's incarnation, and burn you at the stake. It's good that you took the initiative to send it to the door, aren't you afraid of death?"
Qin Xiusheng scratched his head and smiled flatteringly, "I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, where can anyone not be afraid of death?" It's just that I'm more afraid of letting you be tied up in this village than death." ”
Hearing Qin Xiusheng's flattering words, Xiao Qi couldn't help but sigh. Seeing that the sky was already white, she said, "Don't talk about those useless ones yet, let's talk about them first." ”
With Xiao Qi's help, Qin Xiusheng entered her room without danger.
"No one will come to my room, just stay here and I'll find a chance to see you off. Seeing Qin Xiusheng again, although Xiao Qi was very happy in his heart, his face was full of blame. For Qin Xiusheng, this town was full of dangers, and as long as he was discovered by the townspeople, he would definitely be burned at the stake immediately. This time, even if he threatens the mayor with his own life, I am afraid that he will not be spared.
After a long absence, seeing Xiao Qi, Qin Xiusheng's heart was also very happy. He smiled and said, "Xiaoqi, I came back this time to help you get rid of the curse of the town." I've found a way to eradicate the plague in you, and then you leave here with me and never come back. ”
Hearing Qin Xiusheng's words, Xiao Qi's heart was full of emotion, and he almost nodded and agreed to Qin Xiusheng and left with him. However, after she calmed down, she shook her head gently, "Seminary, I can't leave with you. ”
"Why?" Hearing Xiao Qi's refusal, Qin Xiusheng looked at him with a surprised expression, not understanding why she was reluctant to leave this cursed town.
"The vast majority of the people in this town have been infected with the plague, and only that magical herb can barely suppress the plague and save the lives of the townspeople. After glancing at Qin Xiusheng deeply, Xiao Qi sighed softly, "I am also a member of the town. Although they occasionally do things out of the ordinary, I can't give up on them. If I leave here, it will be a death sentence for all the inhabitants here. Without the support of herbs, it will not take more than a week for this place to become a real dead city. ”
Qin Xiusheng was silent, he didn't know how to reply to Xiao Qi. After learning the secrets recorded in the "Green Sac", even if it was the entire town, Qin Xiusheng was sure that he would cure the plague in their bodies in a short period of time, so that the town would be completely freed from the threat of the plague.
The problem, however, is that the townsfolk are hostile to the doctor and don't believe him at all. Especially Qin Xiusheng, the townspeople had long since turned him into the embodiment of the devil. Not to mention treating the townspeople, as long as he dares to appear in front of the townspeople, the only way waiting for him is to be burned at the stake.
"So, I'm not going to leave here. Xiao Qi looked at Qin Xiusheng, her eyes were full of complexity, "I am really grateful that you can come back to save me." But I can only say sorry to you, I really can't abandon the villagers. So, I'd better find a chance to send you out, and you should never come back here again. ”
Qin Xiusheng was stunned in place, he had no way to watch Xiao Qi stay here, bound by the curse of boredom, and he couldn't leave a single step.
Biting his lip vigorously, Qin Xiusheng opened his mouth and said, "Xiao Qi, if you tell the villagers the facts, what do you think? Tell them that the so-called curse in the town is actually a plague, and I have a way to cure the plague in their bodies." ”
Hearing Qin Xiusheng's words, Xiao Qi looked at him in disbelief.
"Seminarian, are you crazy? The townsfolk have believed in curses for years, and they believe in it. Even I can't change their minds for a while. Moreover, if you appear in front of the townspeople, they will definitely think that you have bewitched me with witchcraft, and not only will you not save the townspeople, but will harm you. ”
"I'm not afraid!" Qin Xiusheng glanced at Xiao Qi deeply, and said seriously, "As long as I can free you from the curse here, I am willing to face even the greatest danger." ”
