Lin Mei pulled the little guy's sleeve and followed him to the pharmacy, where there were not as many people as outside, and it was much quieter.

"I'm not here to get in trouble, why are you so upset? By the way, where is Dr. Zhu? Why didn't you see him, and why are there so many patients lately? ”

The little guy listened to Lin Mei's big list of questions, and was also dizzy, and pulled her hand down with a wry smile, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Doctor Zhu went out for a consultation, there are indeed a lot of people who have been sick recently, especially in the county, there are a lot of sick people, no, Dr. Xiong was invited to see a doctor as soon as he came back, leaving us apprentices busy in the dark......"

Lin Mei glanced thoughtfully at the crowd of people waiting to see a doctor outside, frowned and asked, "What are the characteristics of those who are sick?" ”

"Characteristic ......" The little guy frowned and thought about it, and suddenly remembered something, "Miss Lin, I remembered when you said this, these patients are all the same......"

"The same? What is it? Lin Mei asked, already having a faint guess in her heart.

The little guy groaned for a while, and then said, "The patient often feels chills suddenly, cold at the ends of his limbs, cold on his back and whole body, and then goosebumps on his skin, cyanosis of his lips and nails, pale face, and muscle and joint pain all over his body; Then the whole body trembled, the teeth chattered, and even for half an hour, the chills naturally stopped, and the body temperature rose; At this stage, patients often feel seriously ill. ”

"I felt chills all of a sudden...... Her face turned pale,......" Lin Mei muttered, the speculation in her heart becoming more and more real. But the shadows are getting stronger.

"Why, Miss Lin doesn't look like she has this disease? Why are you so interested in this? The little guy felt funny when he saw Lin Mei's appearance, and helped the people in the pharmacy grab some medicine and talk to Lin Mei.

Lin Mei reluctantly pulled her lips and smiled. He whispered, "Then can you help me grab a handful of medicine too?" It's the medicine you prescribe to these patients......"

"This is okay, those pharmacies still have some effect, and the small ones will help Miss Lin grab the medicine." The little guy nodded, said a few words to the apprentice next to him, and then took a bag of medicinal herbs and handed it to Lin Mei.

Lin Mei took the medicine and nodded in gratitude. He took out a small porcelain vase from his sleeve, looked at the people around him secretly, and whispered to the little guy. "There are some medicinal powders in here, can you help me see what kind of medicinal materials are grinding?" What disease is it used to cure? ”

Although the little guy felt that this matter was a little strange, Lin Mei immediately stretched out five fingers and whispered. "Five taels of silver!"

"The little ones should do their best." The little guy saw Lin Mei and said a price. Immediately took the small porcelain vase, opened it and smelled the smell, poured some and twisted it in his hand, and felt that the smell and color were somewhat familiar.

"By the way, how much does this pack cost?" Lin Mei took out her purse from her other sleeve and prepared to pay.

The little guy waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "It's just some ordinary tonic herbs such as licorice and codonopsis, and this bag should be given to Miss Lin." It's not worth a lot of money anyway. ”

Lin Mei naturally wouldn't shirk it, and after saying a few thanks, she directly threw the medicine bag to Luo'er who followed behind.

"Miss Lin. This medicinal powder tastes like Artemisia annua...... "The little guy sniffed and smelled, looked and looked, but he was still a little unsure.

"Artemisia annua? Why didn't I smell it? Lin Mei took the small porcelain vase, and she was also a little puzzled, she was an ordinary peasant girl, and she was naturally no stranger to this Artemisia annua, but she didn't see that this was Artemisia annua powder that day.

The little guy was also a little embarrassed when he saw this, touched the back of his head and explained, "It seems that there are other medicinal materials added to it, which hides the taste of Artemisia annua." ”

"That'...... Can Artemisia annua detoxify? Lin Mei clenched the small porcelain bottle in her hand and asked with a frown.

"Artemisia annua is indeed a wild vegetable that people in Linshan County often pick on weekdays, but it is also a traditional Chinese medicine, which can be used to relieve fever and sweating, especially can be used to clear heat and anneal...... Artemisia annua can also be used to stop bleeding, but the effect is not very significant......" As soon as the herbs were mentioned, the little guy began to talk freely, and his eyebrows fluttered.

Lin Mei nodded, and then she was relieved, since this is the case, the herbs sent by Xiao Zihuan are not unusable, maybe they are better than the effect of these pharmacies......

"Thank you for helping me out, this is a thank you gift, please accept it." Lin Mei took out six taels of silver from her purse, and stuffed it into the little girl, and then pulled Luo'er to rush to the Living Hall, and went straight to Tang's house in the carriage.

"This Xiao Zihuan! What the hell was he thinking......" Lin Mei sat in the carriage, her face full of confusion.

Since you know what kind of disease Liu Yufei has, why don't you say it directly? Also, is this malaria at all...... If so, I am afraid that even the imperial court will shake, and the news of Yufei's illness must not be spread...... Otherwise...... I'm afraid that even Liu County's order will kill his relatives in righteousness at that time......

It's just that, what's strange is that why only Liu Yufei has this disease? And she, Luo'er and Lin Shi are safe and sound, at least in the near future, they have not had symptoms like Liu Yufei......

No, from today on, Liu Yufei must move to her house to live, the Tang family has a lot of mouths, if the decoction of the medicine accidentally spreads, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable......

Seeing Lin Mei's serious face, Luo Er didn't know what she was thinking, and unconsciously stepped back a little, this was not at all different from the Lin Mei in her memory, and the current Lin Mei was even more terrifying than Liu County's order when she got angry......

"Yikes! Miss Lin, look, what is that? Luo'er just stuck her head out of the window to breathe, and inadvertently saw a gray-black hairball in the pile of rotten vegetables in the market, and the hairball shook a few times from time to time.

Lin Mei was thinking about something, and was suddenly called by Luo'er, so she retracted her thoughts very depressedly, and stretched out her head with Luo'er to go to the pile of gray-black hairballs.

"It's a cat, right? Why are you so dirty......" Lin Mei squinted and looked at it a few times, the more she looked at the pile of furballs, the more they looked like a very popular little pet in the capital, a cat from another country.

"Coachman, stop the car......" Lin Mei asked the coachman to stop the car, and got out of the car with Luo'er to check on the kitten.

"It's really strange, how can someone throw such a precious breed away?" Luo'er stepped forward and squatted and poked the gray-black kitten, and suddenly exclaimed, "Ah! Miss Lin! The kitten was injured ......" (to be continued......
