Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Tip of the Iceberg
Gu Chao's expression did not change, he just looked at Song Jinyao gently.
"I won't hide it from you, I just saw him outside, and I followed him."
Song Jinyao frowned.
"What are you doing with him?"
"You didn't tell me last time, but when I watched the patients in Heihe Institute waiting for death in misery, I couldn't help but make a move."
Song Jinyao suddenly realized.
"Just now Erma Ayi said that he asked someone to drink last night, and he told a running maid about it when he was drunk, isn't it you?"
"Yes."
"You're too despicable!"
"Don't get too excited, I know that you don't want to give me the prescription because you don't know the prescription, and you cover him up because you can't help it. However, you know some of the good things that Erma Ayi has done, but you may not know all of them, just now I listened to the conversation between the two of you, and I was confused, but I saw that you yourself were also confused. ”
Song Jinyao was indignant.
"I'm confused, I'm confused, I shouldn't have been friends with you in the first place, so you won't come to pester me today."
Gu Chao moved over and said to Song Jinyao seriously.
"Jin Yao, calm down and listen to me, now this matter is not a problem between you and me, nor is it a problem between you and him, but a problem of the entire Central Plains and Xisai."
Song Jinyao sniffed.
"What do you know?"
"Isn't it all obvious? This epidemic is not a natural disaster, but a deliberate spread by the people of Cisse to harm our people, what do they want to do? Did You Know? ”
"The Central Plains is powerful, and the Xisai tribes have been forbearing, aren't they just to vent their anger, those people outside, who are traitors on weekdays, always love to chew their tongues, and it's not a pity to die."
Gu Chao's scalp was numb for a while, and he felt incredible, Song Jinyao had been in the boudoir for many years, so he couldn't even figure out the most basic truth?
"Who told you this? Who says they're not innocent, and who tells you? Just to vent your anger? ”
Gu Chao had been controlling his emotions, but when he heard Song Jinyao say these words with disdain.
She regarded the lives of those patients and the lives of the people in the Central Plains as child's play, and Gu Chao had to put aside her selfishness and look at all this again.
"It has never been, this epidemic, hundreds of people have suffered, some have been cured by luck, some have been left with lifelong disabilities, and some have broken families and died tragically in mass graves."
Gu Chao paused word by word, and said these facts, this is what she has seen and heard with her own eyes in the past few days?
Song Jinyao's surprised hand shook and knocked over the dresser on the table.
"What? However, he clearly said that he was only from a small tribe and spread the epidemic just to vent his anger, and the targets they chose were all prisoners in the big prisons...... How so? ”
"Didn't I tell you last time that there are people living in the Black River who are suffering from the epidemic, and they are all desperately waiting for death, don't you understand?"
"I, I thought you were deliberately ...... in order to lead me to tell me who I was meeting with"
Gu Chao saw that she really didn't know, and hurriedly blamed herself for misunderstanding her before, but she still couldn't believe it, how could anyone be ignorant of the events outside? Obviously, the epidemic is rampant in Qingcheng County, which is already known to the whole world.
"Didn't you say that you had your father's permission to go out twice, and you couldn't see it?"
Song Jinyao was stunned, shaking his head vigorously.
"I, that was the only time I went out in the past two years, both times, both of them were taken out by Erma Ayi in a carriage."
"You've only seen it twice?"
Song Jinyao shook his head.
"No, my father often called people who had business dealings with him to come to the house for dinner, and last winter, before Chinese New Year's Eve, my father had worked with the merchants of Cisse, and on that occasion, he was there, and he got drunk and strayed into the back garden and bumped into me......"
Oh my God, those stories are really based on real life.
"So, you fell in love at first sight?"
Song Jinyao lowered her head at this time, feeling a little embarrassed.
"No, I'm detained in the cabinet by my father every day, where will I really understand...... It's just that he talked to me, and it was the first time I had spoken to a man since I was six years old......"
Seeing that Song Jinyao's face was slightly red, as if he understood or not, Gu Chao couldn't help but secretly wonder in his heart whether it was Song Jinyao's first taste of love and mistaken it for the truth, or whether they were really happy with each other, not Erma Ayi's one-man show.
Gu Chao asked tentatively.
"Well, you're meeting for the first time, huh...... What was said? ”
Song Jinyao's face turned even redder.
"He said that he wanted to take me to see the sunset in Cisse to see if I was more beautiful than the sunset, and he said that I had been trapped at home for so many years, and I shouldn't have withered here quietly."
Gu Chao couldn't help but nodded.
"He's right."
Song Jinyao's eyes fluctuated, and he grabbed Gu Chao's hands.
"Tell me, what did you find, what did he do?"
Gu Chao lowered his head.
"We don't have a clear clue yet, but now we can know that Erma Ayi spread the epidemic because he was instructed by someone to make a living for the people of the Central Plains, so that the Xisai tribe could enter the Central Plains."
"What? However, is this disease so serious? I didn't get better all at once, even... I didn't even have a scar! ”
Song Jinyao said tremblingly, rolled up her sleeves, and showed her her hand.
Song Jinyao seemed to be really worried, afraid of Erma Ayi, and really did something hurtful.
Gu Chao looked at Song Jinyao's jade lotus-like arms, and there was no trace of scarring, and she suddenly thought of what the old gentleman of the Rejuvenation Hall said.
Mild cases are just like colds and fevers, but they get better very slowly, but severe cases will have chickenpox all over the body, leaving scars.
Song Jinyao is stretching out his hand now, isn't he not telling himself, now it seems that Erma Ayi not only knows the prescription, but also knows the epidemic well, and even serious patients can be cured at will.
Gu Chao asked her, where was the medicine for removing scars that was given to Song Jinyao last time, Song Jinyao brought it to her, and Gu Chao saw that the bottle of medicine had bottomed out.
And if the old gentleman wants to know the dosage of this medicine bottle, he must have been suspicious for a long time, because the small scar on Song Jinyao's face would never use up so much medicine.
The only possibility is that Song Jinyao was disturbed by the scar of chickenpox all over her body, and she could only be in the same door.
Gu Chao felt a little sad.
The people of Heihe Institute have a serious illness and can only wait for death, but Song Jinyao has Erma Ayi's life-saving prescription and rejuvenation hall's beauty medicine, and she is still the same as before, and she is not bad.
Gu Chao can't take care of so much now, it doesn't matter what Erma Ayi did, these things can be investigated slowly in the future, and the uncle of Heihesuo, those people, can't wait any longer.
"Listen to me, how did Erma Ayi cure you?"
Song Jin Yao said.
"He gave me three pills and said one in seven days, and I would be cured."
Pill? If you eat it, won't there be no medicine residue left, so how can you know what ingredients are in that medicine?
Gu Chao asked.
"How is it a pill, not an herb? Don't you need to fry or boil? ”
Song Jinyao replied.
"I was also curious to ask if the black pill could be useful, but Erma said that they were a nomadic tribe, and they didn't have the delicate utensils to cook the medicine, and the tedious work, so all the medicine was made into pills."
Gu Chao thought about it, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
"So, what about the pill-filled thing? No, I pinched it with my hands. ”
Song Jin Yao said.
"It's a small porcelain vase of blue and white porcelain."
Gu Chao was very happy.
"Then, take it out."
What Gu Chao thought was that the medicine bottle must have the smell of residual medicine, and it was better to have a little clue than nothing.
