Chapter 80: Persecution
Not long after Moli, Taoyao, and Ximei left, there was a big riot here.
Everyone gathered around the door of the pharmacy. The first few patients were the ones with milder disease. Qingfeng can't remember everyone's name, but he still has some impression of everyone's appearance.
"Why don't you treat us? Why don't you treat us? Aren't you saving lives and helping the wounded? Is this the purpose of your Huaqing?" was led by a middle-aged man, who stood on the steps of the courtyard and questioned them loudly.
"Everyone, don't be impatient, if we Huaqing are unwilling to treat you, we won't come to this peaceful town at the moment when this plague is spreading. Since we are here, we will definitely do our best to heal everyone!" Qingfeng didn't know why these patients suddenly looked so indignant.
"If it's really for our good, why don't you give us a medicine that can cure us, but you refuse to give it to us!" the man's voice was full of confidence.
Qingfeng's face is silent, but his heart is turning a thousand times. If this person hadn't heard it with his own ears, he would definitely not be so arrogant. Could it be that he heard the conversation between himself and Xiaomei? How much did he hear? When he talked to Xiaomei before, he really didn't notice that anyone was passing by. Or did he just hear a few of them discussing prescriptions at the pharmacy?
"I don't know where you know, the medicine to treat the plague is indeed available, but there is still a taste of herbs, our Huaqing disciples have already gone to pick them, you wait, soon, soon everyone will be cured." Qingfeng finally decided not to mention Xiaomei's matter until he figured out the reason.
"What is not enough, if it is not enough, how can Fu's Muzi be cured? Is it that only the lives of their mother and son are valuable, and the lives of our people are not valuable, so do we deserve to be tortured to death by illness?" The person at the head was emotional, and his words were aggressive.
Under his instigation, the people around him were also very excited, especially some who knew about Fu's mother and son.
"Yes, didn't you say that all beings are equal, why did you save only the two of them?"
"Yes, yes, is it only our lives that are as cheap as ants?"
"You Huaqing Mountain is really in vain!"
There was too much movement outside, and Yurong and Yuqin were going to use the caryophyllum grass that they were going to use after processing it in the pharmacy. I hurried out when I heard the movement outside.
"What's going on?" Yurong and Yuqin asked Qingfeng as they looked at the troublesome patients.
"They think we have medicine but they won't treat them. Qingfeng's words are concise and to the point, but they explain the current situation.
Yu Qin was a quick-tempered person, and couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, "If we are not willing to heal you, why bother to come here to suffer this sin, and arrange for people to prepare every meal for you." Are we fed and fed? Now you are not grateful, but you have come here to make trouble. Isn't this the custom in this peaceful town?, then we should think carefully about whether or not to continue to heal you. ”
Although Yurong didn't like these people to make such a fuss, she also understood the worries in their hearts. drank Yuqin lightly and heavily, "Yuqin, Hugh is talking nonsense!"
Yuqin stomped his feet, pouted angrily, and said no more.
After listening to Yu Qin's words, everyone originally felt that they were a little unreasonable, but when they saw Yu Rong reprimanding Yu Qin, they stood behind the person who took the lead in making trouble with a righteous look.
Seeing that everyone was dependent on him, the man continued, "If you are willing to heal us sincerely, you know that Xiaomei's blood can save us, why don't you give it to us?"
Qingfeng heard this, his face turned pale, it turned out that he really heard it in the kitchen, could it be that he only cared about talking to Xiaomei at that time, and he didn't even know that someone was approaching the door?
"Now that you know you are going to be healed with her blood. Do you want us to drain her blood alive in order to save you people?"
Yurong and Yuqin were also stunned when they heard this, they didn't expect that the bowl of cyan soup that Qingfeng had brought over before would be Xiaomei's blood. No wonder he refused to open his mouth when asked about his origin. It's just that I didn't expect this matter to spread and be known by these people!
The man looked like he took it for granted, "She's just a demon, why not? Killing her and using her blood to save us people is also a merit for her." It can't be said that she can enter reincarnation earlier, and bless her to be reincarnated into a rich family in the future. The patients next to him also echoed, looking quite approving.
Hearing this, not to mention Qingfeng and Yuqin, even Yurong had anger on his face. "Didn't you just say that all beings are equal? Why is it not here with her? Is it that your equality of all beings is different from others? ”
For the first time, Qingfeng had the urge to kill. In the two thousand years of his cultivation, he has never killed living beings easily, except for those demon beasts that do evil. But the person in front of him, this kind of selfish and ugly face, made him can't help but want to kill him. He looked at these people in front of him, and felt that they were pitiful at the same time, but also hateful to them. No wonder Xiaomei repeatedly asked herself to keep secrets, what she was afraid of was not the disciples of the several immortal mountains under the Huaqing Sect, but this group of ordinary people. She must have guessed that this would be the outcome.
Yu Qin was successfully angered by his words again. Originally, due to the presence of senior sister Yurong, she was not easy to attack, but now that Yurong is angry, she will naturally not suppress her anger anymore.
"I thought it would happen to this peaceful town, but it was just a misfortune. But now it seems that it is not necessarily, and it is not possible to say that it is God's punishment for you. How can you be selfish and hurt an innocent person because you want to live? Even if she is a demon, has she ever hurt any of you? None of you have ever drunk the porridge she sent to you, and who has not eaten the steamed buns she sent to you. ”
Yuqin pointed to a person in the crowd, "It's you, have you forgotten that you once vomited her filth, but she didn't mind at all and continued to help take care of you." ”
Yuqin pointed to another woman in the crowd, "And you, have you forgotten that you wanted to go to the thatched house uncomfortably before, and she was the one who carried you on your back." ”
Yuqin will point to their fingers, from left to right, and from right to left, "You selfish people, how can you enjoy her care with peace of mind, and now you are asking her to give up her life to save you. It's not just you who have the right to live in this world, she also has it!" Yu Qin said this, feeling a little sour in her heart. No one here can understand Xiaomei's difficulties better than her. How many springs, summers, autumns and winters does she have to endure before she can cultivate her human form, and how many tribulations she has to go through before she can be promoted. And why do these people say that she is a demon, so they ask her to selflessly dedicate everything to them.
Yuqin pointed to the person standing at the front, "If I said that your blood can also be used to save people, would you agree to let blood to save people?"
"So, then, I'm human?" the man's first reaction was to refuse.
"People can, but demons can't?" Yuqin looked at him with a sneer.
He seemed to understand what Yuqin meant, looked at the people beside him, and hurriedly said, "No, that's not what I said." If my blood can save people, I am naturally willing to give up my life to save more people, after all, one person dies, everyone lives, and I still earn it, right?"
"Then tell me to try!" Yuqin approached him step by step, as if he was really going to let him bleed. He was so frightened that he retreated.
"My blood can't save people, you're changing the subject!" he was scared, but he refused to admit it.
When those people saw this, they understood. They don't want to die, so why should others want to die? The two people named by Yuqin took the lead in retreating, and slowly some people retreated from the crowd of troublemakers.
Yuqin sighed, in fact, not everyone is born a bad person. She also understands that these people just don't want to die. But they have no other way, and now they know that the blood of a demon can save their lives, so they are like grasping the last straw, and they will lose their minds for a while, and they will just make trouble with everyone.
Xiaomei hid in the corner and saw this scene, and her heart was full of emotion. She came here because of the breeze. But she didn't expect that the two immortal elders of Daiyu Mountain would also speak for her. It turns out that this is what it feels like to have friends, and you are no longer a helpless person when you are in trouble.
"Don't listen to them, for if we don't try to kill her and get her blood, we'll be the ones who die!" the man at the head saw that many people were persuaded, and he incited the people again.
Qingfeng clenched his fists and gurgled, he couldn't help but rush forward, although he couldn't kill, but it was okay to make him suffer a little.
Seeing this scene, Xiaomei hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. He is different from her, she is a demon beast herself, and she has many lives on her body, and she will not add many evil obstacles to her. But the breeze is different, the breeze is an immortal cultivation, if it harms people, it will become a major karmic obstacle when crossing the tribulation, which Xiaomei does not want to see. She wished him all the best.
"Are you going to kill me? Come on! Yes, my blood can cure the plague. As she spoke, Xiaomei glanced at the people who were about to move, including the man in charge. "But it also depends on whether you have what it takes to kill me?"
Led by the man at the head, the crowd pushed and shoved forward with weapons such as wooden sticks. It's just that before he got close to Xiaomei, the man who led him was kicked away by Xiaomei. Hit a pillar, spit out a mouthful of blood, and struggled to get up, only to find that he couldn't anymore. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "You ......"
"Don't you think I've been taking care of you here for a few days, and I'm really an ordinary woman who is powerless?" Xiaomei turned her eyes to the people in front of her, "Do you still want to try?"
Everyone watched this scene, although they wanted her blood to save their lives, but they didn't dare to step forward. Because they knew that if they came hard, it was very likely that they would die here at this moment.
