111. Plague
Before leaving Shinzhou, the two entourages persuaded Jiang Heng to wait.
These two people are brothers, both parents died, they were picked up by Jiang Heng when he traveled to Jiangnan when he was more than ten years old, grew up together, and later moved south to Shinshu with the Jiang family.
The seniority in their names is the word "book", and Jiang Heng is used to distinguishing them from Bozhong, so he calls them "Boshu" and "Zhongshu". Jiang Heng treats them as not people, and as brothers, he has always been the most loyal.
Although Jiang Heng didn't know what to do, since they said that it wouldn't be a bad thing to let him wait for a while, it wouldn't hurt him. After waiting outside the city for a while, I waited for more than 100 people.
Those are all people who have followed Jiang Heng before, and they are willing to leave Shinshu and still follow Jiang Heng. Even some people still drag their families with them.
One person stepped forward and said impassionedly: "Before the young master left, he didn't take us with him, and I knew that the young master was unwilling to be implicated." But from now on, you must no longer think of leaving us behind, otherwise it will be distrust and a disgrace to our loyalty!"
"Please allow us to follow!"
In response, they all shouted in unison: "Please allow Bai Zejun to follow us!"
Ru Sanshui leaned into Jiang Heng's ear and whispered: "This is not a hero's book, without the prestige and industry of the Jiang family, this big group of people is not easy to support." ”
Jiang Heng: "Don't worry, we are migrants, and we haven't come here in those two years, and with this experience, it's the same to change places and take root." ”
Ru Sanshui: "That's easy." ”
These people are full of energy, they have enough faith, and they are not afraid to travel long distances, and it is not a bad thing for more people to follow. And this also shows that Jiang Heng has won the hearts of the people, and Ru Sanshui is very happy.
Without roots, it's the same wherever you go to your roots. Ru Sanshui proposed to go to Hangzhou Mansion, because it was once the imperial city of the Great Song Dynasty, and even if Ru Sanshui had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he still had some yearning for it.
On the second day at the inn, there was new news. Sure enough, Jiang Heng's manpower is the most proficient in collecting and delivering practical and effective news.
Jiang Heng said to Ru Sanshui as it was: "Bai Yige heard about the incident in the east window, and retreated all the way to Guxi with his henchmen. The Xue family is already a grasshopper on a rope, and it is impossible to get out of the matter, so they have to form an alliance with Bai Yige and fight against the world's families. ”
After another day's travel, the length of the road was not right, and when I entered an area of mountains and fields, it was dark, and I couldn't find the inn, so I decided to camp on the spot.
The camp was set up, and there were four or five people in one tent, and twenty or thirty tents were set up.
This reminded Ru Sanshui that in the past, on the way to Luzhou from Guyi, he had also camped in the wild many times. It's just that there were more people at that time, and the purpose of the heart was different.
Under the moonlight, the spring was murmuring, and the river was dotted with large and small round stones, and Ru Sanshui was sitting on a relatively flat stone, washing his hair.
Her clothes were roughly stacked on top of each other, and at this time she was wearing only a light brown linen bloomer and layers of white striped breasts.
Ru Sanshui lived with the few accompanying family members, and the two tents behind were women's, which were tightly blocked, and they were not afraid to be seen.
Jiang Heng raised the bonfire, instructed them to roast the wild roe deer, and wanted to cook a pot of wild vegetable soup, so he went to the spring to fetch water.
The wisps of soul mist fluttered on the water, and the shadows were full of shadows. The moonlight shone obliquely on the snow-white skin of Ru Sanshui's half-back, and a delicate red plum was embroidered on the chest.
She sat on her side, scooping water into her hair, like a mermaid coming ashore to watch the moon.
Jiang Heng first forgot his feet, stood in place, looked at the scene in front of him, and didn't know where he was. Immediately, his ears were hot, and he hurriedly lowered his head and stared at the ground for a long time.
After reacting, he turned around and went back by a different path, and the water stopped fighting.
When the fire was extinguished, and it was a little darker, they entered their accounts, and set out again in the morning, before the light of day.
In the low-lying part of the mountain, passing through a village, there was no cooking smoke at noon, Ru Sanshui thought that it was a familiar situation again, so he dispersed the soul mist and went to the village to investigate.
It turned out to be not a ghost, but for some reason, the dead air was still very strong.
When I entered the village, I asked a woman to find out that there were some epidemics here, and the village was originally closed, and there were not many people, and this disease almost killed half of the village.
The woman, who was masked in a white scarf, claimed to be a doctor and a doctor, and when she met them, she happened to be returning from collecting medicine from the mountains.
Ru Sanshui asked, "Is there anything I can do to help you?"
The female doctor replied: "I understand the kindness, but you better go, no outsiders can enter here." ”
Ru Sanshui: "Why do you say that?"
"There are some ninth-rate cubs in the village, who want to drag others to die with them all the time. If it weren't for the fact that the road to the outside world is not easy to walk, and they are sick and unable to walk, I am afraid that they would have run to the nearby big town to harm people, so you should not send your life to it. ”
Jiang Heng and Ru Sanshui discussed privately and decided to help them, and let the accompanying brothers go first on the grounds that the mountain road was impassable and they needed to open the road.
Ru Sanshui said in front of him: "The demon breath on my body is not clean, if I forcibly save people, it will inevitably soak the demon breath into the souls of these ordinary people." Maybe if you save you, you can still resist, but it's fatal for them. ”
"I was supposed to save one person at a time, and I had to recuperate for a long time. And you know, I confronted that monster, and it was too expensive. When we went into the village, we only used the methods of ordinary doctors to treat the sick and save people, and helped others as much as they could. ”
When he came to the woman's medical hall, Ru Sanshui looked around, and the things were very simple, and many medicinal materials were insufficient. said that it was a medical hall, but in fact, it was just the outer hall of the female doctor's house.
There were two people lying in this outer hall at this time, one old and one young. A man in his forties was taking care of him on the side.
Ru Sanshui took a closer look and said to Jiang Heng in private: "This girl can still be saved, but this old woman really can't be saved." ”
Jiang Heng looked at the mother-in-law who closed her eyes and kept moaning: "Is there any way you can try to alleviate her pain?" ”
Ru Sanshui thought for a while: "You go, give her some anger, point out from the thumb, and point her eyebrows." A little bit is enough, she's too old, and more than she is damaged. ”
Jiang Heng did so, put his thumb on his palm, said "slack", and put his palm on the old woman's forehead. A little bit of qi passed in from between the thumbs in the palm of the hand that no one could see.
The old woman's frowning brow soothed, and she stopped moaning, and fell asleep with a steady breath. The man who was serving on the side was originally very displeased when he saw Jiang Heng's abruptness, and wanted to stop him, but when he saw that his old mother seemed to be much more relaxed, he shouted in surprise and joy.
"You're an immortal, right? You dress so extraordinary, you must be an immortal! You save my mother, it's not easy for her to bring me and my sister up, and I haven't been able to repay her! You don't have to worry about this girl, just save my mother!"
Jiang Heng gave him this shout, a little confused, but he still replied as politely as possible: "I'm not an immortal, and I don't have the ability to save her, it was a little trick just now, so I can only let her sleep peacefully for a while." ”
Ru Sanshui put it bluntly: "It's better to prepare for the future than hanging her life like this and making her so uncomfortable." ”
"No, no, no, you must be an immortal! We're saved, I'm going to tell the others!"
Without waiting for Jiang Heng to answer, the man rushed out. Ru Sanshui hugged his arms and watched the man run away coldly.
"I already regret going into this village a little, he reminds me of the scoundrels I used to meet when I saved people. ”
Jiang Heng: "He should just be too filial and excited." ”
Ru Sanshui shook his head: "Don't believe it, let's see." ”
She has lived for so many years, no matter how deep she is, she also has a discerning vision.
