Chapter 6: Slavery
Knowing that he was having a fever, Du Wanwan grinned, leaned on the haystack, and opened the system backpack.
There is a small medicine box in the backpack, and there are a lot of medicines for external and internal administration. Walking in the last days, without medicine, one's life will not be guaranteed. Not to mention being attacked by zombies, people can't stand the sudden change in weather alone. In that kind of weather, getting sick is commonplace, and the virus in the air makes people less immune, and when they fall ill, they have no medicine and can only wait to die.
Disinfect with the hydrogen peroxide in the medicine box, and then apply medicine to the wound on his hand, Du Wanwan was already a little delirious. She held on to her aching body, took some anti-inflammatory and fever-reducing medicine, took a thick blanket and wrapped it around her body, and fell asleep.
At this time, I don't care whether the body is allergic to anti-inflammatory drugs and whether there will be adverse reactions after eating. Now that he has reached this point, if he really has to die, Du Wanwan will admit it.
The night was dark, the drizzle had stopped outside, and the starry sky was like a fine ink crystal sprinkled with silver diamonds. The stars twinkled, but they still couldn't hide the clear moonlight in the air, warm and cool like water, clear and soft.
Du Wanwan took the medicine, wrapped himself in a blanket and slept for a while, sweating all over. The feeling of being hot and burning slowly faded away, and she woke up in a daze.
It was not yet dawn, and the night was still dark.
Lying on the haystack, Du Wanwan opened his bright eyes, staring at the starry sky outside for a moment through the two holes above his head. Maybe the ancient stars were really brighter, and the light made her feel very dazzling, and the stars here seemed to be bigger and closer to her. She raised her hand to test the temperature on her forehead, which seemed to drop a lot, and her heart settled down.
It seems that this body is still able to adapt to modern potions, and she escaped from the ghost gate again and survived.
The night was as cold as water, nesting in a broken grass house with air leaking on all sides and light above his head, Du Wanwan felt unusually relieved. No matter how difficult the situation is now, at least she is alive. There are no sudden changes in the weather, no diffuse viruses, no corpsed animals and plants, and no zombies hungry for flesh and blood.
Du Wanwan lay down for a while, feeling her strength recover, she was now sober and began to think about what was next.
The wizard and Muramasa and others will not let her go so easily. Not to mention that because of themselves, they made a mess in front of the county lieutenant, and they just cut off their financial routes and let them be swept away in front of the villagers, and the wizard would never let Du Wanwan go.
The candidate for this sacrifice was not her, if it was really Du Yu who got on the bamboo raft, then Hebo's matter might not be easy to help in front of the county lieutenant. In any case, this sacrifice was destroyed at the hands of someone surnamed Du. So Du Wanwan is very worried, even if she is cautious in every way, when the wizard makes a stumbling block for the Du family and makes some kind of nonsense excuse, she will have to suffer.
After thinking about it, when the time comes to life and death, she still has to rely on the system. If the Du family is destroyed, she will actually just be free. It's just that the world is changing, and if you are used as a slave at that time, you will probably not be in a better situation than you are now.
Thinking of the system, Du Wanwan was still a little worried.
She only knew now that the system would devour the brocade silk, but this kind of brocade silk equivalent to currency was not an ordinary thing, how could there be so much in this small village? Du Wanwan, who was stunned for a while, could only give up temporarily. After that, let's take one step at a time.
After a drowsy sleep for a while, when the fish belly was white in the sky, Du Wanwan put away the blanket, took medicine again, treated the wound, and sat on the haystack to pretend to sleep.
At the entrance of the village, at sunrise, two hurried men entered, both carrying a bulging package in their arms, and walked straight to the wizard's quarters. The green grass leaves on both sides of the dirt road are still filled with crystal dewdrops, and under the light of the red sun, there is also a slight hint of colorful light.
"Death Star! offended the gods, don't you hurry up to work to atone for your sins! Too lazy to get sores on your feet, wasting food in vain!" Second Uncle Du Qiang's voice sounded abruptly in the small courtyard, and before Du Wanwan could say anything, he heard his aunt Du Li lower her voice and persuade the second uncle.
"What do you tell her to do? She has a cold disease! You are a ghost who is in a hurry to be reincarnated and waiting for death, wake her up and give us all the sickness?!"
The aunt's persuasion obviously worked, and the second uncle was dumbfounded, and said to the aunt with a smile: "Look! Didn't I forget? Oh, this time we are also a blessing in disguise, not only Yu Niang escaped the sacrifice, but even the money sent out hehe!
The two lowered their voices again and tugged back to their rooms.
A sneer pouted at the corner of his crooked mouth with his eyes closed. It's back again? It's really underestimating the wizard, this time it's a big loss, if you don't get it back, then it's a ghost! I'm afraid that the Du family's money will not be able to be saved.
Thinking of this, Du Wanwan suddenly opened his eyes.
That's right! According to the greedy character of the wizard and Muramasa, how could he only deal with her, a poor and stupid girl! The target of the people is the Du family at all, and it is the money that the Du family took out before showing their wealth!
Du Wanwan sighed, now, how can she not escape the calculations of others, the Du family suffered, where would she have the reason to be spared? Now it is the king to hurry up and earn energy points! It's just that before Du Wanwan can act, the wizard has already had a result.
At noon, Muramasa and the wizard led a middle-aged man dressed in errand clothes to Du's house.
"The county commander has something to say, the Du family disrespects the gods and offends Hebo, causing Hebo to be guilty and suffer from a cold illness. In order to make up for the mistake, the property of the Du family and other people was confiscated, and the family of four was made slaves and went to Daqianguo on the same day. ”
The Du family was all a blow to the head, and Du Wanwan was also choked by his own saliva and coughed. I really want to come to something. Last night I was praying that I would not be made the lowest slave. It's good now, it's only been one night, and everything I think has come true!
Oh my God, Grandpa!
"My lord, my lord, it was the mourning star who offended the gods! It wasn't us! Why did you want to seize our property and make us slaves, my lord!" the aunt Du Li was anxious when she heard the officer's words, and hurriedly grabbed the officer's trouser leg and argued loudly.
Du Yu was also dumbfounded, she thought that if she escaped the catastrophe of Hebo, she could wait to marry into the village squire's family and enjoy happiness with peace of mind!
"No, my lord, you must be mistaken! We didn't offend the gods! We also paid the money and silk sacrifices!" Du Yu exclaimed loudly, she didn't want to be a slave!
"Lord Wizard, Master Wizard, you have something to say!" Du Qiang also pleaded with the wizard on the side. The wizard pretended to be embarrassed on his face: "Alas, this is also a matter of no choice, the county order has concluded that it is your Du family who is the trouble, and now you are still obedient." ”
Before he could finish speaking, the messenger had already rushed into the house and searched for his belongings.
