Chapter 129: Sick as a Mountain
When the three of them saw Dandan running away, they no longer asked the bottom of the matter. When they were tired, they had finished eating, and then they lay down on their own. Liu Dai and Liu Feng made a bunk in the outhouse, while Xiao Qingzhu slept peacefully on the couch.
After a while, the room fell silent.
When he slept until midnight, when Liu Feng woke up at night, he only heard a violent cough in the inner room, and at the same time, there was the sound of cups colliding. Liu Feng was puzzled, he knocked on the door: "Miss Xiao, are you okay?"
Xiao Qingzhu's weak voice came from the house: "It's okay!"
It doesn't sound like it's okay. Liu Feng asked again, "Miss Xiao, can I come in?"
Xiao Qingzhu said: "No need!"
Liu Feng couldn't rest assured: "You better let me come in and have a look!"
Xiao Qingzhu said: "Then you can come in!"
Liu Feng walked in, he lit a candle, and saw Xiao Qingzhu lying on the couch, gasping for breath. Liu Feng stretched out his hand and probed her head, then screamed.
"Oops, you've got a fever!"
"I know......" Xiao Qingzhu said weakly, "It's raining heavily today, and it's so sunny, it's inevitable that it's cold and hot." ”
Liu Feng suddenly felt that the six gods were masterless: "What can I do! You wait, I'll find you a doctor!"
"Hey!" Xiao Qingzhu hurriedly called him, "It's the middle of the night, where can I find a doctor!" Let's wait until tomorrow morning, by the way, help me pour some water next to me, and then you can go to sleep." ”
Liu Feng couldn't, so he had to pour some water for her. Xiao Qingzhu picked up the cup and drank it all, then she slammed it on the pillow and fell into a deep sleep.
This sleep, I slept in a daze.
Early the next morning, when Liu Feng came to Xiao Qingzhu's room again, he found that she was still asleep. When I reached out, I felt that my forehead was frighteningly hot. He was shocked and hurriedly called Liu Dai.
"Second brother, Miss Xiao is sick!"
As soon as Liu Dai saw Xiao Qingzhu's appearance, he knew that she was suffering from the cold: "This is not good, you have to ask for a doctor." So saying, he got up to leave.
"I'll please, don't go out!"
Old Man Shen walked in tremblingly, he looked at Xiao Qingzhu on the couch, and frowned slightly.
"None of you are going to leave this room while I'm out, you know?"
Liu Dai and Liu Feng looked at each other. Shen Laohan didn't say much, and slowly left the room on crutches alone.
Xiao Qingzhu heard their conversation clearly. Xiao Qingzhu sat up from the couch, wanting to grab Liu Feng and tell him that it would be good to have some breakfast. Who knew that when she reached out and grabbed it, she found that her hand had passed through Liu Feng's body!
Hey?
Xiao Qingzhu turned his head and saw that he was still lying on the couch. At first, I thought I was sick and died, but when I looked closely, I was breathing steadily on the couch and looked like I was sleeping peacefully.
Is it a dream?
Xiao Qingzhu slapped himself in the face hard, but found that it was not painful. She was relieved: it seemed to be a dream. Just thinking like this, she saw Dandan running over, she reached out and gently grabbed her hand hanging outside the quilt, and carefully put it back. It felt very clear, as if someone was touching you.
No, it's not a dream!
Xiao Qingzhu was a little confused: What the hell is going on? At this time, Liu Feng brought a bowl of ginger soup and began to feed himself. The ginger soup was a little hot, and Xiao Qingzhu felt that his lips were about to be burned.
Your sister, can't you blow and feed again?
Finally, when Liu Feng finished feeding, Liu Dai walked in again. He carried a bowl of rice porridge and made a gesture to feed it to his mouth.
This is also a person who doesn't take care of people!
Xiao Qingzhu was frightened: It's just a medicinal juice, at most it will be hot to the mouth, this rice porridge is sticky, and if you feed it, you may even have to burn your throat!
She didn't want to get better, but she had a big bubble!
Just when she was in a hurry, Dandan on the side stopped Liu Dai: "This is not right!" I saw the little girl jump onto the couch, she skillfully picked up the bowl, stirred it with a spoon, scooped up a shallow spoonful, and blew it with her mouth before feeding it into Xiao Qingzhu's mouth. Xiao Qingzhu relieved her heart at this time: she is still a girl with a careful heart!
Xiao Qingzhu put his mind at ease. Just then, there was the sound of a gong striking outside the door.
As soon as Dandan heard this voice, he pricked up his ears. As the sound of the gong got closer and closer, Dandan put down the porridge bowl and instantly got into the cabinet.
"Don't tell them I'm here!"
Xiao Qingzhu only wondered. But looking at this meaning, Dandan seems to be very wary of this voice. Liu Feng wanted to go out and have a look, but Liu Dai grabbed him.
"Don't go, Old Man Shen seems to be afraid that we will be discovered!"
Liu Feng had no choice but to give up. After thinking about it, he closed the door and pretended that no one was in the house.
Xiao Qingzhu thought about it, she simply walked through the door and walked straight out. People outside couldn't see her, Xiao Qingzhu walked around the village and found that most people were startled by the sound of the gong. What made her feel strange was that most of the people who came out of this village were old and weak women and children, or people such as the lame and the blind.
This surprised Xiao Qingzhu, and after thinking about it, she followed the crowd to the entrance of the village.
The one who struck the gong was a young man with leprosy on his head, which should be Uncle Lai Zi that Dandan said. And behind him, there were two fourth-order or so spiritual priests. Seeing that people were slowly gathering, Lai Zi smiled and said, "Have you arrived?"
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket: "Zhang Mazi!"
An old man in his seventies and eighties raised his hand slightly.
"The king is crippled!"
A lame man reluctantly responded.
"Mrs. Gu!"
When a fifty or sixty-year-old aunt was about to answer, the stupid son next to her shouted with a smile: "Mrs. Gu is not here!"
This scene was very funny, but Xiao Qingzhu found that everyone couldn't laugh.
After Lai Zi clicked the name, Lai Zi smiled and said, "This year, the Holy Lord took a fancy to two people in the village, so he gave two places. The chosen family will receive fifty taels of silver, plus ten stones of white rice, ten stones of white flour, ten pigs, ten fat sheep, two oxen, and thirty chickens and ducks. The people who were not selected were still ten taels of silver, three stones of white rice and white noodles, a sheep and a pig. Of course, families with children at home still take special care of them, giving an extra five taels of silver and five sheep. ”
The crowd stirred. Such a reward should be a great asset to the people of the village. But Xiao Qingzhu could see that they were all full of sadness, and they didn't seem to want this windfall.
In the crowd, Xiao Qingzhu found Shen Laohan sighing on the side. Xiao Qingzhu wanted to ask what was going on, but Shen Laohan couldn't hear her.
At this time, I saw Lai Zi take out another list from his pocket, and with his movements, Xiao Qingzhu obviously felt that the crowd was nervous.
I only heard Lai Zi cough lightly twice, and sang loudly: "The people who were selected this year are: Gu Fool, the son of Gu Pozi, and Zhou Qi'er, the daughter of Zhou Biandan!"
Shen Laohan immediately breathed a sigh of relief. And Gu Pozi shouted directly.
