Chapter 293: Smallpox

An Le kept thinking about what Thyme said in his head.

Facing the sea, spring flowers are blooming.

"Xiang'er, let's go to a small village by the sea, build a thatched house near the sea, plant the land around the house, and when the time comes, you plant medicinal herbs, I will pick up water next to me to water it, you see if this is good."

When Thyme heard An Le say this, she was in a bad mood and got better.

"That's good! Our destination is the seaside. ”

Because they were afraid of revealing their feet and leaving clues, Thyme and An Le did not stay on the road for a long time, and hurried directly along the official road.

When they arrived at the dock not far from the royal city, they abandoned their horses and joined the merchant ships.

Merchant ships are not passenger ships, and they are naturally stacked with cargo.

Thyme and Anle also spent a lot of money on the boat, and it is naturally impossible to find a place of their own.

In the end, it was Thyme who came up with another sum of money, and the two of them changed to a relatively small room, and the two of them were crammed into it, unable to do anything.

In this way, the merchant ship stopped and went, and finally docked two months later.

This merchant ship is a merchant ship that does business along the river along the way, and the main thing is to sell the goods from this place to another place, and then sell the goods from another place to the next place, and so on along the river.

There are many people on the merchant ship, and unless it is absolutely necessary, thyme and Anle will not enter the space.

Both of them know that space is not everything.

They can't always rely on space, everything goes into space, if one day there is no space. So what to do?

This is also the reason why Thyme has encountered difficulties for so long, and likes to solve them by herself first, rather than hiding in the space and disappearing.

After sitting on the boat for so long, they couldn't eat or sleep well, and both of them were exhausted.

So as soon as they got off the merchant ship, the two of them rushed directly to the nearest restaurant, asked for a large table of food, and began to eat.

Thyme learned the Western Xia dialect when she was at the border before, and now it is not a problem to communicate.

Comfort is innate, and naturally it is not a problem.

The two of them were very happy to look at each other's embarrassed eating.

Satiated.

Thyme stretched out her hand when she left the restaurant, and her face was excited.

"Finally got here, and I heard the people on the boat say. It's close to the sea from here. And there's a big beach out there, and there are more villages over there, so let's not be idle, let's go and see it now. ”

Thyme had never seen the sea in the true sense of the word in her previous life.

So that feeling of excitement in my heart now. It's unclear to say yes.

Anle is everything with thyme. And he can't wait to have a place of his own.

Ask as you walk. Got to the beach before dark.

Standing on the beach, picking up the seashells washed by the tide, thyme is in the mood at the moment. I don't know what words to use to describe it.

Watching the sunset and finally disappear on the sea level, thyme quietly snuggled on An Le's shoulder, with an indescribable happiness.

An Le also likes this quiet.

"Let's go to the village now and find a place to live, and wait until tomorrow to ask the Lizheng here to see if anyone wants to sell the house, or see if we can buy a field." ”

When they came here just now, they also saw that there are farmers growing crops in the vicinity.

Hand in hand walked into the village.

Sometimes God just likes to joke.

Thyme and An Le walked into the village when they saw a child running towards them, his face full of panic.

"You can't go into the village."

Thyme and An Le both looked at the child a little blankly.

The village is not very large, about 20 families, and the construction of houses is relatively concentrated.

Thyme looked at the child in front of her in confusion, the child was about seven or eight years old, very thin.

"Why didn't the little brother let us into the village? Could it be that something is going on in the village? ”

After saying that, Thyme glanced at the village worriedly, this time was logically due to the time when the smoke rose from the house, but now it was deserted.

The child suddenly turned red and said: "There is a big thing in the village, the elders say that there are monsters in our village, many people in the village have strange red rashes, and they have not disappeared, and they have been feverish, and the doctors invited are gone, we are worried that this disease will spread, so I am told to watch the entrance of the village, no one is allowed to enter the village, and no one in the village is allowed to come out, you better go, don't worry about you." ”

Hearing the child's words, Thyme and An Le glanced at each other tacitly.

An Le bent down, smiled slightly, and said to the child: "Don't worry, child, we are doctors, you go and call your Lizheng out, I have something to say to him, you can rest assured that we will never enter the village without permission." ”

The child saw that Thyme and An Le were not bad people, and after a few words of advice, he turned around and entered the village.

As soon as the child left, An Le asked in a low voice, "Xiang'er, what do you think this illness is?" ”

Thyme shook her head, the rash was still contagious, and it had a fever, which you had to see before you knew it.

But Thyme's heart was already starting to feel a little uneasy.

She was a little worried about smallpox.

Soon after the child entered the village, an old man was brought out.

As soon as the old man came out, Thyme was surprised.

The old man's face had small red blisters one after the other.

And the old man could also see that he was also a little uncomfortable.

The old man walked up to Thyme's side and asked, "I am the head of this village, I don't know what can help the two of you?" ”

Li Zheng spoke politely, and Thyme liked the people in this village.

Thyme's face was a little serious, and she said to Li Zheng, "Do you know what disease you have?" ”

Seeing Thyme's serious expression, Li Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then asked the child to play aside, and then said: "I heard Niu'er say that you are doctors, and you can see what kind of illness we have and want to come to the doctor, you two better go, it is not good for you to stay here." ”

Li Zheng sighed, his voice a little sad.

Thyme was always a little sad when she saw such a scene: "You asked Niu'er to watch the village, because you don't want the people in the village to go out and let everyone be infected." ”

This point is not hidden, nodded and said: "This smallpox, in my grandfather's generation also appeared, at that time the people in the village died seventy-seven, eighty-eight, the village was empty for many years, my grandfather came back from outside, I didn't expect to meet my generation, actually appeared again, how powerful this smallpox is, I must also know, I just don't want to watch other people suffer, during this time several people have died in the village, and the village except for the cow was not infected, the rest of the people were infected, Don't stay here, let's go. ”

Li Zheng was a little sad after speaking.

Thyme said that if it can cure these people's diseases, it can really be cured.

"I also said just now, I'm a doctor, since I have encountered such a thing, there is a reason to avoid it, I will go in with you and take a look, rest assured that I will not be fine."

Thyme smiled gently at Lizheng.

An Le is naturally not afraid, his body is not an ordinary person, so he naturally does not have to worry about infection or the like.

followed Li Zheng into the village, Li Zheng once again instructed Niu Er to keep an eye on the entrance of the village, and then walked in with thyme.

"When the village was sick, we invited a doctor to come, and when the doctor came to see it, he was so frightened that he fled, and at that time I knew that the village was infected with smallpox, which was also our misfortune, hey."

Rizheng was full of helplessness when he said this.

Thyme also sighed when she heard the old man say this.

"It's a bit unfortunate about this, but you don't have to worry too much, right, are all the sick patients together?"

Li Zheng nodded: "Everyone is together, who knows when they will die, everyone can be buried together after all, speaking of which, everyone is miserable." ”

Thyme and An Le both looked at each other in surprise.

Then he followed the old man to a large courtyard, where people leaned against each other, some serious patients, lying on the quilts, looking painful, while the rest of the better people took on the responsibility of taking care of these people.

Thyme took a look at it and was sure.

These people had smallpox.

Thyme took An Le's hand and whispered, "It's smallpox." ”

An Le was also worried.

They all know how bad smallpox is.

Thyme knew that the priority was to cure these people's illnesses.

Taking out the porcelain vase from his bosom, the thyme handed it to the old man.

"I don't know if this medicine has any effect, but I am sure that this medicine is not poisonous, if you believe me, drink this medicine, if it has an effect, I will boil this medicine in your village, and as long as it can save everyone, it will be considered everyone's creation."

Rizheng glanced at Thyme, and the villagers who were standing nearby and heard this all stood up.

Just as he was hesitating, an elderly woman stood up.

"Madam, give me this medicine, my wife's life is not worth much, if this medicine can really save everyone, I am willing to die now."

The old lady doesn't know how to speak, but what she says is in her own heart, but she can't express it, she actually wants to say that she is willing to take risks for everyone, as long as she can save everyone's lives, she is willing to die.

Thyme looked at the old woman with a smile, and then handed the porcelain vase to the old woman.

The old woman took the porcelain vase, opened it and drank it.

Thyme is naturally a secret medicine, but this secret medicine has never cured smallpox, and thyme has no bottom in her heart.

Everyone stood beside the old woman.

Waiting for a miracle to happen.

waited until the second half of the night, the old woman did not react, everyone was a little sleepy, and they were sick, so they naturally couldn't wait.

A lot of people are starting to go to sleep.

And at this moment, the old woman who had been paying attention to the changes in her body screamed in surprise. (To be continued......)
