Chapter 301 Rotting corpses
"Old man......" After testing the breath of the old man on the sickbed, I panicked a little, and although I tried to calm down on the surface, I still couldn't stop the violent heartbeat in my chest. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info turned around, and Okawa was still looking at me expectantly, hoping that I could save his mother. "Old man, how long have you been sick?"
Okawa snapped his fingers and counted, "Four...... Forty-two days. ”
Forty-two days? Isn't this the first time their father and daughter have come to get medicine?
"What's wrong?" Okawa Xu sensed something was wrong from my reaction, and he himself became nervous.
"Okawa, can you go and call the priest in first." I really don't know what to do with the current situation, so I can't bear this pungent smell, so I can only ask him to call Sai Yu first, and wait for me to discuss it with Sai Yu before making a decision.
"Oh, good." Okawa walked out in a daze, and I heard him say to Saiyu outside, "Childe, madam...... Madame looking for you. ”
Sai Yu must have hesitated for a moment before he should speak. "Oh, come, I just re-bandaged Xiaoxiu's feet, you hold her first."
Not long after, Sai Yu walked in, and as soon as he entered the door, he immediately smelled this strong and pungent smell, and frowned, "This is?" "As he spoke, Sai Yu glanced at me, immediately understood something, walked forward quickly, and after checking it, his heart suddenly cooled a lot, and his reaction was no better than when I first saw the woman on this bed." She's been dead for a long time. ”
That's right.
The corpse was rotting and stenching, and in the whitened carrion flesh, there were live maggots wriggling......
When I first picked up Xiaoxiu and got closest to this room, I smelled this abnormal corpse smell, but at that time, I didn't directly expose it in order to take care of the children. Later, through the conversation, I learned from Xiaoxiu that there was also her grandmother living here, but this grandmother was sick, did not move, and did not take medicine, so I suspected that something might have happened to this person. In addition, Okawa said that at first she had been lying on the bed and rolling, crying out in pain, but then she stopped moving and stopped shouting. Okawa thought that the old man was fine, but ......, "The problem now is that the father and daughter outside don't know that this woman is dead." ”
She had been dead for at least a month, and during this time, the father and daughter had twice gone to the stall to get medicine and come back to treat her, unbeknownst to them, the woman had died. And, judging from the scene just after we knocked on the door outside the courtyard, the father and daughter were still living in the same room as the woman's body during this time.
"Gotta get them out of here." Sai Yu said.
They had been living with a corpse and were susceptible to other diseases.
"Childe, ma'am." Okawa waited outside the door with Xiaoxiu in his arms.
"Huo Xi, you can bring Xiaoxiu back first." Saiyu just turned sideways and said to me first, it seemed that he was going to tell Okawa about it himself.
"Hmm." I answered, stepped forward, and hugged Xiaoxiu from Okawa's arms. "Xiaoxiu, can you go somewhere else with your sister for a while?"
Xiaoxiu turned around and looked at her father, and saw that Dachuan had no intention of stopping me, so she agreed to me.
I hugged Xiaoxiu and walked out.
......
"Miss Huo Xi, this ......" Lord Luan Xun was speechless for a while when he saw me coming back with Xiaoxiu in his arms.
"It's fine. Sai Yu is in the back, let him explain to you later, I will put Xiaoxiu in the room first, and then I will talk about it later. "Although this Xiaoxiu is thin, she has more than fifty pounds, and with my physical strength to carry her all the way, I don't even have the strength to speak.
"Sister." When I brought Xiaoxiu into the room, I just put her down, but Xiaoxiu grabbed my sleeve.
"What's wrong?" Every time I face this little girl, I can always set off a ripple in my heart, or rather, the timing of her appearance is too coincidental, making up for the regret of having another daughter between me and Xiao Jue.
I put her in a chair and crouched down in front of her.
Her little hand tugged at my sleeve tightly, "Sister, are you trying to arrest my father?" ”
"Catch your dad?" I didn't expect her to ask me this question, and it was so funny, "Why did you arrest your father?" ”
"My dad...... My dad stole food from someone else's house. Are you going to arrest him because of this? "Xiaoxiu was nervous, at least from what I had observed, she was by no means pretending to be worried.
"Whose grain did your father take?" It turned out that Xiaoxiu was worried that Dachuan would be arrested because he stole other people's food.
Xiaoxiu shook her head, "I don't know, my father sometimes goes to the field secretly." But he really didn't take much, we were hungry, there was no way. ”
Secretly go to the field, Xiaoxiu means, could it be that Dachuan occasionally goes to the crop field to steal some crops grown by other people's families, and comes back to feed his stomach. In normal times, there are people in the fields in the broad daylight, and as soon as the day dawns, the industrious farmers go down to work until the sun sets. Naturally, it is impossible for Dachuan to steal crops during the day, it can only be at night, and if they secretly steal crops at night, it is inevitable that they will still be sleeping during the day. "Xiaoxiu, there are many ways to eat a full stomach in this world, but the premise is to be diligent. If you are hungry, you can go to the mountains to pick some fruits, and the herbs come back and sell them, or if not, you can go and collect some firewood, even if you can't sell it for much money, but it is better than you are now, hungry and full. I touched her head and said, "You have to remember that stealing, no matter how much you steal, is stealing, and that is not right in itself." You may be hungry and have no choice, so you steal other people's food to eat, but will the person who has been stolen also go hungry? ”
Xiaoxiu thought for a moment and nodded.
"That's right, if you work your own, those who are willing to work hard will always have bad luck. Even if the effort is only enough to eat a full meal today, then you can support yourself for a day. "I really like this little girl's understanding." You sit here for a while, and I'll go outside and let them boil some hot water, and wipe your body and wash your hair. ”
Xiaoxiu smiled slightly, "Okay." ”
I settled Xiaoxiu, got up and walked out of the room. When he was about to meet with Lord Luan Xun, he happened to see Sai Yu and Dachuan also coming over.
"What the hell is going on!" Lord Luan Xun was confused, and slapped the back of his hand with his palm, trying to find an explanation.
