Chapter 100: The Epidemic Worsens
Chu Ci was stunned for a moment before he spoke: "These things haven't been investigated yet, and you have to send someone to find out before you can know." ”
Hearing this, Chu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, and then said, "Dad, I'll let Wei Rin check in a while, it may not be safe outside the city recently, so you can rest in the post house for a few days." ”
After listening to Chu Xiaoxiao's words, although Chu Ci was a little worried, he also knew that he couldn't help him in this kind of matter, so he could only tell Chu Xiaoxiao to be careful, and then went back helplessly.
This time, the people's condition suddenly worsened, and Chu Ci also had to re-study the prescription, and it was indeed not appropriate to go out at this time.
Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Ci's departing back, her eyes sank slightly.
From the very beginning, she had a hunch that this plague could never be so simple, and now it seems that it is!
Thinking of this, Chu Xiaoxiao directly threw the cloth towel in her hand to the ground, and walked out.
"Xiaoxiao?"
At this time, Yun Ruochen suddenly walked over for some reason, looked at Chu Xiaoxiao and said, "Do you want to go out?"
Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Yun Ruochen and frowned slightly, and then spoke after a while: "Well, something happened outside the city." ”
Although she didn't let Chu quit, Chu Xiaoxiao still wanted to find out.
After all, at this time, it will definitely not be ordinary people who dare to break ground on her head. If she doesn't find out this person, how can she be willing?!
Yun Ruochen didn't ask what was wrong, but said to Chu Xiaoxiao: "This king will go with you." ”
"No, it doesn't. Chu Xiaoxiao said without thinking: "The plague outside the city is serious again, there must be someone behind the ghost, what if something happens to you?"
Chu Xiaoxiao's footsteps did not stop when she spoke, and Yun Ruochen also followed her all the time, saying as she walked: "I...... This king has been in Yongzhou City for a long time, and he has never gone out. ”
He naturally knew what was going on outside the city, and it was because he knew that he wanted to follow Chu Xiaoxiao.
This time the plague in Yongzhou City was widely implicated, if it was not careful, something big would happen, and Yun Ruochen didn't want Chu Xiaoxiao to make any mistakes.
"You can go out and walk if you want, but you can't do it today. Chu Xiaoxiao said mercilessly.
After finishing speaking, Chu Xiaoxiao paused instantly, then turned around and blocked in front of Yun Ruochen, frowned and said, "Now, you go back and stay honest." ”
Listening to Chu Xiaoxiao's strong tone, Yun Ruochen's face was full of helplessness.
Is he ...... He was too weak in front of Chu Xiaoxiao, so much so that he couldn't cry or laugh like this now.
"Chu Xiaoxiao. Yun Ruochen spoke helplessly.
Chu Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows to look at him, smiled softly and said, "How?"
Since she was familiar with her, Chu Xiaoxiao had never heard Yun Ruochen call her by her name and surname, so at this time, Chu Xiaoxiao not only did not feel serious, but was a little more novel.
Yun Ruochen said: "Xiaoxiao can go out, why can't this king? No one has ever stipulated that this king can't go out." ”
"You're right, nobody rules. Hearing Yun Ruochen's words, Chu Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement, and then said, "But I just stipulate it, what can you do?"
Chu Xiaoxiao's almond-shaped eyes looked extremely bright in black and white, even if she was a scoundrel, she looked very pleasing to Yun Ruochen.
Yun Ruochen said helplessly: "Xiaoxiao, this king just wants to go out for a walk...... Speaking of which, this king has never been out of the capital......"
Hearing Yun Ruochen's words, Chu Xiaoxiao suddenly didn't know what to say.
She is a typical eater of soft and not hard, if Yun Ruochen told her that he had to go out today, Yun Ruochen would probably not be able to get out today.
But Yun Ruochen said such a thing, but it made Chu Xiaoxiao a little confused.
Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Yun Ruochen with a little distress in her expression.
She naturally knew what Yun Ruochen meant.
Although Yun Ruochen is a child of the royal family, the younger brother of His Majesty the Emperor today, and even exalts the position of the prince, in fact, he may not be as good as ordinary people.
Chu Xiaoxiao was looking at Yun Ruochen, and Yun Ruochen was naturally looking at her.
After the two looked at each other for a long time, in the end, Chu Xiaoxiao couldn't help it, and took the lead in saying to Yun Ruochen angrily: "Okay, okay, if you want to go out for a walk, let's go out together, but there is one thing, you have to listen to me." ”
"Why?" Yun Ruochen said without thinking.
Hearing this, a strange smile suddenly appeared on Chu Xiaoxiao's face, "Because...... You don't want to be beaten!"
Yun Ruochen: "......"
After Chu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she left on her own, but her attention was still on Yun Ruochen behind her.
Seeing this, Yun Ruochen smiled helplessly and hurriedly followed.
After the two of them left the post house, they went straight out of the city.
However, after only one night's work, the scene outside Yongzhou City once again changed to the same as when they first came.
Chu Xiaoxiao was not originally a benevolent person, and it was difficult to have any touch on the life and death of strangers. But at this moment, Chu Xiaoxiao's heart felt a sadness for no reason.
Most of the people gathered outside Yongzhou were homeless refugees, who gathered together like discarded garbage, making the walls of Yongzhou, which had seemed to be somewhat grand, much more dilapidated.
The dead are slowly decaying, while most of the living are walking the old path of the king's dead.
Everybody knows that, but there's nothing anyone can do about it.
Such a scene reminded Chu Xiaoxiao of some experiences in her previous life.
Chu Xiaoxiao was not born to be the king of killers in her previous life, her memories began in the welfare home, and desolation and hunger accompanied her throughout her childhood.
Therefore, Chu Xiaoxiao can understand the feelings of these refugees.
"Sister...... I'm so hungry......"
At this time, Chu Xiaoxiao suddenly felt that someone was grabbing the hem of her clothes, and then moved to an extremely weak child's voice and went crazy to her ears.
Hearing this, Chu Xiaoxiao lowered her head and looked at the dirty little hand that grabbed the hem of her clothes, and saw that it was a little boy in ragged clothes who had just spoken.
According to Chu Xiaoxiao's eyesight, the boy was at least seven or eight years old, but he looked as thin as four or five years old.
Because the boy's face was too thin, his eyes were extraordinarily large, and there were tears and expectations in his eyes when he looked at Chu Xiaoxiao.
"This sister, I'm so hungry, can you give me something to eat?"
