Lin Xiaojue and the three of them arrived in Tucheng in the evening, and they didn't need to enter the city to know how big the impact of the plague was.

Tucheng is not really a city, just a small township, so there is no city gate, but when they entered the town, the three of them found that people were going to be difficult to walk while it was dark, and they all carried their burdens to salute, and none of them wanted to go back to the town.

Lin Xiaojue stopped a relatively wealthy-looking woman and asked, "Sister-in-law, why are you going out, where are you going?"

The woman looked up and saw a beautiful girl blocking the way, and she was embarrassed to speak this evil word.

She pointed back in the direction of the truth: "Miss is here to visit the door? Go back quickly, there is a plague in the town and dozens of people have died, and now everyone has relatives from other places, they all go out to hide, and come back after this energy." ”

Lin Xiaojue said in her heart, this kind of wandering will bring a lot of trouble to control the epidemic, she was just about to say to the woman to go to the capital, but the person has already left.

"Miss. Zhao Tingfang pointed ahead and said, "Have we made progress?"

Lin Xiaojue said: "Of course you have to enter, otherwise you won't come in vain, let's go to the Mixture Bureau first to find someone to lead the way, visit the dead man's house, and then meet Beijing at night, there are more people in the capital, and you can't fight here." ”

King Zhao and the others nodded.

So the three of them inquired all the way to find the town's Mixture Bureau,

It was not yet dark outside, but it was no longer clear what was inside the house, and the Mixture Bureau was a small three-room house, with candles lit in the main room.

Lin Xiaojue and the three of them entered the house, the furnishings in the house were very simple, the four walls were empty, and a bed was placed in the northwest corner, which should be used by the doctor to rest, which was the best furniture, and it could not be compared with the yamen in the capital.

There was only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child sitting at a table on the south side, writing something.

The boy must have heard someone coming, and looked back with a pen.

When Lin Xiaojue saw that he saw the two people behind him, his shoulders trembled obviously, obviously scared.

So she stepped forward and said, "Little boy, we are from the Tai Hospital in the capital, I heard that there is a plague here and people are dead, what about the adults in the bureau?"

The child still looked cowardly, but obviously he had seen outsiders, although he was afraid, but he could still speak clearly, and his voice was like a cat cub: "My father went to Wang Ergou's house with the imperial doctor in the capital." ”

Lin Xiaojue said: "Then Ling Zun is the doctor of the Mixture Bureau?"

The child shook his head: "I don't know who Ling Zun is, my father is the only one in this game." ”

Three: "......"

Zhang Tingfang was anxious to leave, and said in a rough voice: "Then when will your father come back?"

When he asked, the child only craned his neck and looked at them, not speaking.

Now the three of them are even more anxious.

Lin Xiaojue thought for a while, stepped forward and took out a piece of broken silver from his cuff: "Is there anyone else here?" I want him to take me to your father." ”

The child shook his head and said, "I told you that my father is alone." ”

Wang Shengsheng said: "Then why are you here?"

The child said: "The little potato died yesterday, I am afraid to be alone at home, there are candles here, just read books." ”

Lin Xiaojue said: "Is that little potato your friend?"

The child nodded vigorously, and the next moment there seemed to be something shiny in his eyes: "I will never see him again, he was thrown to the back mountain by his father." ”

Childish words, and the words spoken make people feel even more uncomfortable.

Lin Xiaojue changed his words and said, "I want to see your father now, so can you help me find an adult?"

The child shook his head: "I can't find it, the people I know are almost gone, my father originally planned to take me away, but there is an official in Beijing, so he can't leave." ”

The three of them thought at the same time, it was good to be one step earlier.

Lin Xiaojue couldn't, so in the end he could only beg the child: "Is it okay to take us to your father?" After the matter is completed, I will give you another tael of silver." ”

The child only glanced at the silver, and then shook his head: "My father said that you can't take other people's money. ”

Lin Xiaojue said: "Then did your father say that if you help others, others can pay you? This is called equal trading, and when you have needs, you should also show sincerity to others, and you have to say thank you if you don't ask for money." ”

Wang Shengsheng hurriedly said: "Miss, you give the silver to the child, it is better to take a piece of candy, and besides, it is fun to help others, how to exchange it for money, you will teach the child badly." ”

Lin Xiaojue looked at Wang Shengsheng helplessly: "But I have never only carried money, not sugar." ”

Yes, the young lady is a money-seeker.

Zhao Wang and the others suddenly became sad, and said What should they do if they can't move a child?

At this time, the child clasped his little hand into Lin Xiaojue's hand, then grabbed the silver in his hand and jumped off the stool: "I'll take you there." ”

"Hey. Wang Shengsheng said, "Why are you willing to go again?"

The child looked at him and said, "Because this young lady understands things much better than this uncle, and now that there are dead people outside, my father won't let me go out. ”

Wang Zhengsheng: "......"

"What kind of kid is this?"

Zhao Tingfang smiled and patted Wang Shengsheng's shoulder: "You should be as stupid as we were when you were a child? ”

When the child heard Zhao Tingfang's words, he should have regarded it as a compliment, and tilted his head to stare at Lin Xiaojue with some smugness: "Who do you want to see first?" I listen to my father and them, and I want to see more than a dozen of them. ”

Lin Xiaojue asked, "Are you familiar with all these people?"

"Of course, I used to go to play a lot. Speaking of this, his eyes darkened: "Uncle Zhao is also dead, I like to go to his house the most, he will tell us stories." ”

Lin Xiaojue seemed to be unable to parry, and the child said life and death in a bland tone.

She said: "You just show me the way at the door, and I'll go by myself for the rest, and then you stay in the house and don't walk around, wait for your father to come back, and then you can get out of here as soon as possible, okay?"

The child nodded: "Whether you can go or not, my father has the final say." ”

Lin Xiaojue patted his little head: "Of course you have to listen to your father." ”

The child showed Lin Xiaojue the three of them the way, and Lin Xiaojue asked him to go back, although it was not necessarily safer to go back, but at least she felt better.

So the three of them followed the direction of the boy and went directly to the last house.

When he was about to arrive at the door, Wang Zhengsheng asked, "Miss, why do we want to come to the last one, don't look at the front?"

Lin Xiaojue looked at the low thatched house not far away, and said, "I want to see who is from the Tai Hospital." ”

Zhao Tingfang frowned and was puzzled: "Do we want to go with them?"

Lin Xiaojue said: "If you can come here, you may be forced to be helpless, but it may also be voluntary, my strength alone is limited, if I can unite a few more doctors, then there will be more people who can be treated." ”

Zhao Tingfang and Wang Zhengsheng nodded at the same time: "Those imperial doctors who stay in the capital don't even want to know the situation. I don't think I will come forward to save people. ”

Lin Xiaojue had exactly this meaning in mind.

Therefore, the doctors you may meet next can fight side by side. (To be continued.) )
