Chapter 228: Sacrifice

Because of Ji Yanqing's following, from the east, they would stop a little in front of every tent with epidemic patients inside.

Lin Yaoyue accompanied the old woman outside the tent, while Lin Zhenyu went in from time to time to help Ji Yanqing. Seeing that these victims had a high fever and red sores all over their bodies, Lin Zhenyu's heart was also very anxious.

And Ji Yanqing calmly took out the silver needle from the patient's Baihui acupoint at this moment, and saw that the patient's complexion slowed down, as if it was a little better than when he first saw him.

Lin Zhenyu couldn't help but ask, "Brother Yanqing, will the condition of this little brother in front of you get better?"

Hearing this, Ji Yanqing lowered his head and rubbed the silver needle in his hand with his fingertips, and smiled bitterly, "No, it's the opposite." This belongs to the Du Mai, for the hands and feet of the three yangs, the meeting of the Du Mai, the silver needle is here, very dangerous. It doesn't save lives. ”

Lin Zhenyu was stunned when he heard this, "What is Brother Yanqing?"

A light sigh flowed from Ji Yanqing's warm voice, "This man is now dead gray, I just did this to delay his death, hoping to wait for the medicine used to save him." ”

"Medicine?"

Ji Yanqing nodded, "I can only save the lives of people who have just been infected with the epidemic and have not yet developed red sores on their bodies, but I can't save these people who have come all the way from Jizhou and have been suffering from scabies for a long time." And there are many more such people. ”

Lin Zhenyu looked at Ji Yanqing slightly, no need for Ji Yanqing to say, just now, or in the past three days, he has seen too many victims who died due to the plague, and their deaths are extremely miserable, which makes people unbearable to look at directly.

"Okay, Brother Zhenyu, you can go. Ji Yanqing put all the silver needles back into the acupuncture box and whispered to Lin Zhenyu to bring Lin Zhenyu back to his senses.

In this way, the group of four finally walked to the tent where the old woman's son's family was, but before they could enter, they could hear a neighing cry inside, "Xiaobao, cheer up, my mother is by your side." Cheer up. ”

Lin Zhenyu lifted the curtain suddenly, and saw a terrifying-looking young woman holding a three- or four-year-old boy in her arms crying heartbreakingly. And the old woman who was supported by Lin Yaoyue on the side was crying down her old face at the moment, and she called hoarsely,

"Xiaobao, grandma is here. ”

Hearing this, the young woman turned her head suddenly, and that terrible face suddenly reflected in the old woman's eyes, so frightened that the old woman suddenly ducked back until Lin Yaoyue supported her on the side.

And at this moment, the young woman rushed in front of Lin Yaoyue and said, "You are the fairy in their mouths, please, save my child." ”

Hearing this, Lin Zhenyu was puzzled, stretched out his hand to block her and asked, "How do you know that my sister is the fairy in their mouths?"

Facing Lin Zhenyu's questioning, the young woman's face was half twitching, and she finally bit her lip and said, "Because I dug her, but she didn't get the epidemic." And it is rumored that the fairy who went down to earth broke through the epidemic and was reborn from the cocoon. ”

After listening to what the woman in front of him said, Lin Zhenyu was almost so angry that his eyebrows flew straight up, he tried to restrain the anger in his heart, and said to the young woman, "My sister is kind enough to come to find your family for your mother-in-law, since you know that the epidemic will be transmitted through wounds, why do you still dig her?"

Lin Zhenyu remembered that in the cabin, his sister said that she was being dug by a patient. But they never imagined that they would be harmed by the old woman's daughter-in-law, that is, they had saved their lives and had the kind heart to help them find their relatives.

Right now, Lin Zhenyu's starry eyes were full of anger, if it weren't for the habit he had developed all year round, he would have been eager to slap this woman for the sake of his sister's suffering at this moment.

And now the woman just shook her head and said, "I don't want to hurt her, I just think she's probably going to take us out." I heard from the female doctor who came to wash every day that there was no medicine here that could cure my family. If you don't get out of here, you're here to die. ”

The woman's voice was very poignant, and with her red-spotted face at the moment, she looked like a demon from hell.

Lin Zhenyu didn't know what to say when he heard this. If she hadn't poached her sister, he might have done what he could to help their family at this moment. But now, he didn't even want to look at the woman.

Therefore, the young woman looked at Lin Yaoyue again. She stretched out her hand, but Lin Yaoyue quietly dodged her hands that stretched out to hold her tightly, and then said coldly, "I can't help you." ”

The young woman fell to the ground as if she had lost her heart, and she looked at her son, who was lying on the bed not far away, with a high fever, and wept bitterly.

At this moment, Ji Yanqing said coldly to the side, "Come out." ”

Hearing this, Uncle Quan, the old shopkeeper of Qinghui Hall, walked in from outside the tent, and Anhe, a boy in Tsing Yi who followed Ji Yanqing.

"Why are you two here too?"

As if thinking for a while, Uncle Quan knelt on the ground suddenly, and An He also knelt down together, kowtowed to Ji Yanqing and said, "Family master, you can't hesitate any longer." Miss Lin's blood is the medicine lead, why don't you want to admit it until now? If this continues, I don't know how many people will die, and how many families will be separated?!"

Hearing this, Lin Zhenyu was stunned at first. Then he looked at the shopkeeper of Qinghui Hall with a compassionate expression, and then looked at Ji Yanqing's miserable and clear face. He understood, it was true. Perhaps this is also a problem that Fang Cai has been ignoring, but cannot ignore.

Why did her sister break out of the cocoon and be reborn?

But even so, how much blood can be taken, and how much blood can his sister take?

Thinking of this, Lin Zhenyu's handsome face condensed, and a pair of sword eyebrows frowned, "Quan, what do you mean by this." Are you going to sacrifice my sister alive?"

Lin Zhenyu's questioning did not have the slightest chance to make the shopkeeper breathe, but this is the truth. It's not like the young woman who can whitewash the past in a few words.

Hearing this, Uncle Quan struggled very much.

He knew that if he did this, Lin Yaoyue would probably die of blood, but for the hard work of his own family master, for the hundred-year reputation of their Ji family, and for the sake of these thousands of ordinary people, what is the point of sacrificing Lin Yaoyue?

Obviously, Uncle Quan has already persuaded himself. I saw him coldly instructing outside the tent, "Go forward, grab the medicine man, and take out the blood from your heart." ”

Hearing this, Lin Zhenyu hurriedly drew his sword and protected Lin Yaoyue's body.

But Lin Yaoyue looked indifferent at the moment, just raised her eyebrows slightly, and a pair of clear ink-colored phoenix eyes looked directly at Ji Yanqing's unstained face.
