Chapter 292: Natural and Man-made Disasters
Xiao He saw that the person who came was Shen Suhang, and said, what does Lord Shen think about this disaster relief?
Lord Xiao, why don't we go outside and take a look at the specific situation, and then make plans?
Although he had long thought of how shocking the scene should be, when Xiao He stood outside the temple and looked inward, his heart still shook violently.
What a catastrophe has been experienced, almost everyone has yellow muscles and deep eye sockets, and some people have even reached the point of being skinny.
At this time, Zheng Qiu's servants were giving porridge to everyone, and as soon as the shouting sounded, everyone flocked to the official messenger.
The official was soon surrounded by people, he was wearing a thick cloth towel, and even breathing was a little difficult, and he couldn't help cursing, and secretly complained in his heart.
But he still dutifully distributed the porridge and steamed buns, but in the end, those who had not eaten enough stood in front of him with their eyes open, hoping that he would be able to give them a little.
He turned his eyes in the direction of Zheng Qiu as if asking for help, Zheng Qiu sighed and nodded, and then he took out a few of the remaining steamed buns with peace of mind.
But as soon as he took it out, they swarmed up and took away the steamed buns in his hand.
During the scramble, a white steamed bun fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and rolled to Xiao He's feet.
Those who were scrambling didn't notice it, but a child sitting quietly in the temple with drooling eyes noticed it, and his eyes lit up, and he rushed over like an agile leopard.
His movements were too big, and when he was picking up steamed buns, he slammed into Xiao He's leg, Xiao He stumbled and almost fell.
Fortunately, Ji Changge reached out and stopped her.
The child didn't notice Xiao He, and only put it on the steamed bun, regardless of whether it was dirty or not, and put the steamed bun baby into his arms.
Xiao He was a little curious, why didn't he eat the steamed bun after grabbing it so quickly, so he wanted to catch up and find out.
Shen Suhang stretched out his hand to stop her dangerous move, and the accompanying Imperial Physician Su also said that it was inappropriate for her to do this, and distributed the handkerchiefs soaked in the potion to everyone.
Xiao He pressed the handkerchief to his mouth and nose according to Imperial Doctor Su's instructions, only to feel that his breathing had become difficult.
After entering the temple, the field of vision also became more broad, Xiao He raised his eyes and saw that they were all old, weak, sick and disabled, even if there were young people, they were all weak.
Moans rang out in my ears, as if I was in pain.
Raising her feet to walk deeper into the temple, after a few steps, she suddenly stopped and looked at the corner with straw on one side.
Shen Suhang looked as far as her line of sight could see, and found that it was the child who had bumped into Xiao He before, and a little boy who looked even younger than him.
Their presence seems somewhat abrupt.
Because in the temple, only the two of them are children, and the other children are surrounded by adults.
Xiao He turned to the two children.
Ji Changge followed closely behind Xiao He, always paying attention to the others, as if he was worried that others would hurt Xiao He.
Seeing this, Shen Suhang stopped following, turned his footsteps, and walked in other directions to check the situation of other people.
Zheng Qiu hesitated for a few seconds, but still followed Shen Suhang.
After Imperial Doctor Su entered the temple, he treated others with peace of mind, and Shen Suhang couldn't help but be a little worried when he saw the tragic situation in the temple.
Even Yuzhou has become like this, with so many victims, the plague is rampant among the refugees, so how tragic is Ganxi?
The situation was worse than he had imagined.
Thinking of this, he had an unprecedented sense of crisis.
Xiao He stopped not far from the child, and quietly watched the child take out two steamed buns from his arms.
The difference is that one steamed bun is white and clean, and the other is stained with soil.
He handed the clean steamed bun to the younger child, and carefully wiped the mud-stained steamed bun with the corner of his coat before handing it to him.
The younger child's lips were white, cracked and parched, and his face was pale without a trace of blood, but he shook his head and took another steamed bun and gave it back to him.
"Brother eats first." He trembled his arms and stretched out in front of him, for him a simple action was a little difficult to do, but he stubbornly looked at his brother.
"I'm not hungry, my brother drank porridge." He helped his brother to lie down, hammered his leg, protected his brother, blocked the sight of others, and said softly, "Eat quickly, someone should be robbed in a while." ”
They are too young, and it often happens to them that they bully the weak with the big and bully, so they have to be careful.
Hearing this, the little child swallowed the steamed bun in a big gulp, but his eyes looked around, afraid that someone would come to snatch his steamed bun.
Xiao He looked at it, a little sad, I don't know if it was because of this natural and man-made disaster, or because of these two brothers.
It's not that she didn't see the so-called porridge, that is, a few sparse grains of rice mixed with water, let alone filling her stomach, I'm afraid it can only sustain life.
What's more, the way the child swallowed desperately when she looked at the steamed buns, she still remembers it vividly.
Thinking of the extravagance and erosion in the palace, Xiao He sneered, and it really formed a good contrast with these people.
The older child found her, and was a little nervous to protect his younger brother behind him, looking at her and Ji Changge defensively.
Xiao He didn't take his precautions in his eyes, and still took a few steps forward, squatting down in front of him, his eyes at eye level.
After not seeing any hostility in Xiao He's eyes, his expression relaxed a little, and he seemed to be relieved.
"What's your name?" Xiao He looked at him, suddenly took the handkerchief away, and asked.
"My lord! Cannot! Her movements caught Ji Changge off guard, and she opened her mouth to stop her, but she glanced at him and signaled him not to speak.
Ji Changge looked at her, a little anxious, and stopped talking.
Xiao He didn't take his worries to heart, just turned his head to look at him, and ordered, "Go and call Imperial Doctor Su over." ”
Ji Changge glanced at her deeply, didn't move, Xiao He frowned, and said sharply, "Why don't you go quickly?" My words don't work anymore, do they? ”
Ji Changge was helpless, and after a few entanglements, he had to turn around and look for Imperial Doctor Su.
After Ji Changge left, Xiao He Fang looked at the child again.
"Yu Zhu." Just when Xiao He thought that he would not answer her question, the somewhat stubborn child suddenly came up with these two words.
Seeing that Xiao He was a little puzzled, he spoke again, but a little awkwardly, "My name." ”
Xiao He suddenly realized, looked behind him, and after seeing her actions, Yu Zhu was vigilant again and glared at her.
"My brother is sick?" Xiao He knew that his younger brother was his counterscale, so he also knew why his hostility came from.
"Yes." Yu Zhu hesitated for a moment before speaking again, and pointed to Xiao He's handkerchief again, "It's better to wear it better, be careful of the plague." ”
In fact, he was very curious, everyone was afraid of them, but Xiao He seemed to be completely unafraid, and even took off the veil.
His reminder made Xiao He smile dumbly, for his kindness, she put the handkerchief in her sleeve and spoke again, "What disease does my brother have?" ”
Yu Zhu thought for a while before shaking his head, "I don't know, the doctor came to see and said something I didn't understand, and then he was called away by others." ”
Xiao He knew clearly, there must be too many people, the doctor was too busy to take care of everyone, and they were small, so he left them out.
"Where's your father?" Xiao He sat down next to Yu Zhu and started chatting with him.
Why do you have compassion for bamboo? Xiao He didn't know, probably just because Yu Zhu was too like her who was homeless and had to hide her identity.
Yu Zhu was a little gloomy, and didn't seem to want to mention this topic, so he was silent for a long time before he whispered, "Dad is dead, and my mother is separated from us." ”
After the flood, the plague was rampant, and he and Yu Lin's father soon contracted the plague and had no money for treatment, so they died soon after.
Later, when he fled with his mother, there were too many people and they were dispersed.
He took Yu Zhu to look for a long time, and he waited for a long time, but he didn't see their mother, and he didn't know whether she was alive or dead.
It wasn't until Yu Lin was also infected with the plague that he came here with the other fleeing people to live.
His father and mother are gone, and he has no relatives, so Yu Lin has become his only consolation, he just wants Yu Lin to live well.
It's a pity that the doctors here didn't cure Yu Lin of his plague, and now they are dragging it out day by day.
And finding their mothers has become what they want to do most and their greatest wish.
This answer was expected by Xiao He, but it was unexpected.
She thought that Yu Zhu's father and mother were dead, but she didn't expect his mother to be alive, probably, this is a blessing in misfortune.
I really thought about it, Ji Changge had brought Imperial Physician Su to her side, and Xiao He hurriedly stepped out of the way, so that Imperial Physician Su could treat Yu Zhu's younger brother with peace of mind.
Yu Zhu was a little uneasy, he stayed by Yu Lin's side all the time, worried that he would be afraid, and held his palm tightly.
Xiao He stood aside, no less worried than Yu Zhu in his heart, but he didn't show it, he was still calm, "Imperial Doctor Su, how is it?" Can it be cured? ”
After examining it, Imperial Physician Su stood up and said to Xiao He, "Lord Xiao, this child's condition is not too bad, it can be treated, but it is ......."
"Just what?" Hearing that Imperial Physician Su said that Yu Lin's illness could be cured, Xiao He was naturally pleasantly surprised, but his tone of wanting to speak again made her heart lift.
Yu Zhu was also very happy, and after hearing Imperial Doctor Su's words, the smile on his face froze, and he waited a little nervously for him to continue.
"It's just that the herbs stored in the local clinic are not enough, even if you go up the mountain to collect medicines, it is not enough." Su Yi voiced his concerns.
Xiao He frowned, and after his reminder, he also remembered this matter.
There are so many patients in Yuzhou alone, so I don't know what Ganxi is like! I'm afraid it's only going to get worse.
After thinking for a while, she resolutely said, "Don't worry about this Imperial Doctor Su, I will write a letter to the emperor to explain the situation when I go back in a while, and strive to transfer herbs and food from the capital." ”
She believes that Mu Churan will not sit idly by.
After listening to Xiao He's promise, Su Yi's troubles were finally solved, and he prescribed medicine to Ji Changge with peace of mind, and asked him to go to the hospital to grab medicine.
