Looking at this scene, Zhou Huazi was so angry, but the smile on the star fruit lips was even brighter.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Laugh at their ignorance, and also reassure Joan for being calm and serious." Carambola pressed the waist bag in his arms and walked back happily: "He can go to the surrounding counties and cities to borrow doctors and medicinal materials." It shows that he is in a good situation now. ”

"Didn't you hear them? Lord Qiao is gritting his teeth now, and they have already moved the county's treasury. The wealthy merchants and people of West Fire City have long been dissatisfied with the imperial court. Although the people in the cottage burned, killed and looted, they were all aimed at the government and the lackeys of the government. It doesn't hurt them much. In this case, they are only afraid that they will stand on the side of the cottage and will never help Lord Qiao. ”

The situation Zhou Huazi said was very serious, but the smile on the star fruit was still undiminished: "Qiao An is different from the previous corrupt officials. I believe that the people of the fire will see him clearly. ”

"That will take time, too!" Because of star fruit, Zhou Huazi also believes that Qiao An is a good official. So I couldn't help but say anxiously: "It will take a long time to see people's hearts, I'm afraid that Master Qiao won't be able to survive for that long." ”

"Do your best and let your destiny be!"

Carambola turned her head to look at Zhou Huazi's eyes, put away the smile on her face and said seriously: "We are all mortals, all we can do is to do our best." Qiao An wasn't sure that he would be able to take Xihuo County Commander well, but he risked his life to work hard. We're stuck here, and we're not sure we'll be able to get rid of the plague, but there's hope if we do our best, right? ”

"That's right." In recent days, the most Hanako has lived a hard and desperate life every day. But after listening to the words of star fruit, his heart suddenly brightened: "No one can resist their lives, and if you live well while you are alive, it is better than anything else." ”

Carambola smiled and didn't speak again.

When they entered the back mountain, Zhou Huazi suddenly stood in front of the star fruit and said, "Perhaps, we can also help Master Qiao." ”

"How can I help?" Star fruit looked up at Zhou Huazi, and the light in her eyes was brighter than the stars in the sky.

"The news of the plague is blocked on the cottage, and the people under the mountain will be dissatisfied with Lord Qiao's act of administering medicine." Zhou Huazi took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to the star fruit and said, "Let Luo Niang go to this place, there are all the families of the soldiers." As long as Luo Niang learned the situation on the mountain to them. The plague can naturally be known to the whole county. ”

"Thank you!" Star fruit grateful for the results of the paper. She knew that Zhou Huazi's willingness to hand over this was complete trust in her.

"And this!" Zhou Huazi took out a rusty key from his shoes again, he was afraid that the key would also be contaminated with the smell of his feet and carefully wiped it on his body, then handed the key to the star fruit, blushed and said: "Before surrendering, the brothers snatched out the silver tickets and property from the county government, all of which were hidden in the lotus pond in the back garden of the county government. ”

"How many?"

"Time was pressing, and everyone didn't have time to take a closer look." Zhou Huazi stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head, his face became more and more unnatural: "I thought that I really couldn't count on the imperial court, so I took refuge in the mountain bandits with those silver." So, I didn't centrifuge much. ”

The court is unreliable, and there is no way to blame others for having different intentions.

Besides, it must be not easy for Zhou Huazi to hide these things, and now he is willing to take out all his family resources to help Qiao An, and star fruit is only grateful to him.

Star fruit was worried about Qiao An, and thought that these things were sent to Luo Niang that night.

Looking at these things, Luo Niang was also a little incredulous: "After they surrendered, the cottage searched them carefully countless times. This Zhou Huazi can still hide things? ”

Carambola looked at the key on the table and didn't speak.

"In order to co-opt them, the big bosses used all kinds of tricks to coerce and lure, but in the end, it still didn't work. You've only been to the back mountain for a few days, and he actually gave you such an important thing! ”

"Since ancient times, evil has prevailed over good."

"Yes, mountain bandits are mountain bandits after all, there is no way out and no future, everyone shouts and fights." Luo Niang sighed and let the star fruit go back.

After a while, three more people died in the back mountain.

But when the star fruit went back, I found that everyone's mental outlook was different. Although it is still sad and painful, it has a vitality that it has never had before.

"General Zhou has already told you what happened ahead, thank you for thinking about us, but we don't want to be co-opted by the copycat."

"When the time is poor, we would rather die than be mountain bandits."

"Yes, we're not leaving!"

“……”

The voices of petitions came and went, all expressing their resistance to the cottage. Carambola tried its best to persuade her, but few people changed their minds.

"Even if you die here, you will die as a dignified person."

"I would have said it a long time ago if I could persuade me, it was useless." Zhou Huazi stopped the star fruit who was still going to be persuased, and said with a solemn expression: "In my meaning, everyone lives and dies together here." We are officers and soldiers of the imperial court, and we must not be mountain bandits in order to survive. ”

No matter how useless it is, the star fruit no longer wastes her lips and tongue, and only solemnly says: "Since you refuse to leave, then you will listen to the arrangement in the future." As long as I am here for a day, I will definitely do my best to treat everyone. ”

Since then, star fruit has lived in a seriously ill area, and has been working day and night to check everyone's pulse and control the disease.

She tried to give the medicine she took back from Luo Niang, hoping that it would have an effect, but instead of alleviating her condition, the patient vomited blood and fell unconscious.

Star fruit kept testing the amount and medicine, but three days passed, and none of them succeeded.

In these three days, people kept dying. Just looking at the star fruit, my heart hurts.

She studied the pulse cases and prescriptions more and more day and night, and she couldn't even care about eating and sleeping. After being so strong for a few days, she also got sick.

Zhou Huazi was so anxious that she persuaded star fruit after turning her back: "If you fall, what hope do you have?" Go find Luo Niang to show you, and come back when you are well. ”

The star fruit burned in a daze, but he still shook his head firmly: "The fifth brother will definitely not let me come back when he sees me like this." If I don't leave, I'm sure I'll find a cure for the plague. ”

Zhou Huazi couldn't persuade her, seeing her dragging the sick body to change the prescription, she felt unspeakably uncomfortable.

At this moment, he hated the mountain bandits in front of him. There are obviously piles of medicinal herbs there, and there are countless idle doctors. But star fruit had to fight here alone.

Seeing that the carambola's body was about to be unbearable, Luo Niang finally came.

When she saw the appearance of star fruit, she was so frightened that her soul flew halfway. Tightly checking her pulse, to make sure that it was not the plague, this heart calmed down slightly: "You are really promising, you can make yourself dead in a few days." ”

Carambola smiled miserably at Luo Niang, and her eyes immediately turned red: "I'm useless, I can't save them." ”

"Nonsense, without medicine, the gods can't save them."

Luo Niang pointed to the star fruit's nose and scolded her head and face, but in the end she was still soft-hearted and sighed: "You are so sick and sick, leave the plague matter to me." ”

"You?" Star fruit sneered: "Just rely on the patient in the front yard who was infected with the plague at the beginning to do the pulse case?" ”

"I'm not leaving!"

Luo Niang stayed in the back mountain! The big boss was furious and sent someone to tie her up, but she didn't leave.

The big boss was also afraid of making things out of control, so he finally nodded under Yang Pan's persuasion: "The medicinal materials can be sent inside, and Luo Niang can also stay in it to study the prescription." But until the plague is cured, no one in the back mountains is allowed to come out. ”

"You have to be optimistic, if anyone dares to take a step, Lao Tzu will immediately burn this place clean." The doctors in the whole city are here, but half a month has passed, and there is still no effective cure for the plague. The big boss is afraid, for fear that the people in the back mountains will slip out again, and even the plague will spread more and more widely.

After Luo Niang moved in, the situation here immediately improved.

Not to mention the use of medicinal materials, the pulse case prescription can also be passed out for the doctor in the front yard to consider and discuss. Yang Pan was in charge of the front and back yards to deliver supplies, and many news from the backyard also reached Qiao An through his hands.

There are also countless doctors in the county office, and everyone has discussed and worked together, and it didn't take long for progress to be made.

On this day, when the star fruit was boiled and was about to be fed to the patient, a chopstick suddenly stabbed in front of her eyes, and when she came back to her senses, the chopsticks had fallen in front of her wearing a cobra.

The star fruit was suddenly startled, and her face was bloodless.

The patient in front of him mistakenly thought that star fruit was afraid of snakes, so he reached out and grabbed the snake and threw it out. But before the snake died, it bit the man with his backhand.

The cobra is highly venomous, and watching the man being bitten, the heart of the star fruit is cold.

She hurriedly fed him the medicine, told him not to move, and then went to boil the antidote to the snake venom. But when she brought the medicine over, the man who was dying just now stood up.

Carambola gave her pulse, but found that the corpse poison had been cured!

"I always feel almost hot, it turns out to be snake venom!" Carambola was overjoyed and hurriedly beckoned Zhou Huazi to go up the mountain to catch the cobra.

When the snake was caught, star fruit and Luo Niang were drugged according to this recipe. Most of the corpse poison was detoxified, although the patient's body was still weak after detoxification, but his life was saved.

There is progress here in star fruit, and there is good news on Joan's side.

The family members of Zhou Huazi and other generals made a big fuss in the county office, and the people in the county knew that there was a plague in the cottage. Everyone asked around on the basis of the relationship, and when the plague was confirmed, everyone panicked.

At this time, the doctor invited by Joan sat for free all day. Medicines to prevent the plague were distributed free of charge.

The people of Xihuo all knew the economic situation of the county government, and they were originally worried that Qiao An would take the opportunity to take advantage of it. But after waiting for a few days, even if it was rumored that the county government could not afford to eat white noodles, the decoction medicine continued to be distributed, and there was no order for them to pay the silver.

The people were grateful, and the wealthy merchants, who had been very resistant to the yamen, even took the initiative to send silver.

When the star fruit got a cure for the plague, Qiao An also stood firm in Xihuo County.

On this day, all the surviving people in the back mountain drank medicine to detoxify the corpse. A large number of mountain bandits who watched the excitement and talked cool in the front yard actually fell. The big boss was so anxious that he was sweating, and asked Luo Niang to treat everyone quickly.

But before Luo Niang could take the pulse to determine the symptoms, the sound of gongs and drums sounded rapidly on the sentry tower. A mountain bandit rushed in in a hurry and shouted, "Oh no, Qiao An has led the troops to fight." ”
