Chapter 116: Eventful
"These are all things that I, Zhong, should do, knowing that General Zhao is a busy man, I won't leave you, you can go quickly." Zhongli directly ordered the eviction.
Zhao Yiyan was stunned, he looked at Zhongli reluctantly and fondly, he has been busy with the plague these days, and he has no time to think about Zhongli, now looking at the person standing in front of him, she has grown a lot taller than before, because it is winter, she wears more clothes on her body, and she looks a little more cute than before.
That is, Zhao Yiyan dared to describe Zhongli like this.
"When the plague passes, Zhao is thanking the second son." Zhao Yiyan didn't dare to look at Zhongli, and after saying a word, he hurriedly left the living room, and seeing him walk to the door, Zhongli shouted, "Wait." ”
Zhao Yiyan's body immediately froze, but he heard Zhong Li say: "I suddenly thought of something, but I still want the general to decide." ”
Zhao Yiyan couldn't help but look at her in surprise, from Zhongli's mouth, he would hear the word "decide", it was incredible, he nodded, and made a look of "listening to his ears", Zhongli couldn't help but say some of his home remedies, "These are just some home remedies for treating wind and cold in my hometown, but I can't call the shots, so I ask General Zhao to decide." ”
Zhao Yiyan had always known that Zhongli knew a lot of things, and he had heard that he used egg whites and that leeks to treat Xiao Yuanyuan's allergies, he frowned and hesitated and bowed his head gently, "You just write, I'll arrange it." ”
Zhongli breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and before Zhao Yiyan left, he intimately brought a bowl of ginger tea for him to drink. As the guard of the border pass, Zhao Yiyan is the one who has been walking in danger. If he falls, the whole border will definitely be in chaos.
"Thank you." Zhao Yiyan turned around, took the hot ginger soup sent by Rumo and drank it all.
The hot liquid flowed down his throat and into his stomach, making Zhao Yiyan's whole body hot, he handed the bowl to Rumo, and bowed his hand to Zhongli again: "Farewell." With that, he hurried out the door and stepped on his horse.
"Da da da......" The sound of horses' hooves disappeared in her ears, Zhongli thought of the medicinal materials she had left in the Zhuangzi Shang warehouse, she thought about it and asked Rumo to send half of it to Zhao Yiyan's house.
Zhao Yiyan had just instructed Zhongli's suggestion, and as soon as he came back, he saw the medicinal herbs piled up in the courtyard, and a trace of strangeness flashed in his heart, and he hurriedly asked people to take these things to boil and bring them to the sick to drink.
Time passed day by day, Zhongli's home remedies worked, and the demand for medicinal materials in the entire border city also decreased little by little, and the flu was cured little by little soon after the people sent by Zhongli to buy medicinal materials returned, and at this moment, Zhongli breathed a sigh of relief.
But it was an eventful autumn, a heavy snowfall collapsed many houses in several nearby villages, causing heavy injuries, and a series of bad news came, so that Zhongli couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Second son, take a break! Even though we're just a farmer, you have a heart you can't finish. Rumo entered the door and saw Zhongli frowning and groaning, and couldn't help frowning and shaking his head.
Zhongli also nodded helplessly, and said with a smile that the greater his ability, the greater the responsibility.
Rumo smiled, and did not refute, these people are also because of Zhongli's kindness, so they can have a way to live in this world, and even live a wonderful life, although they are serving people, but what Zhongli really needs them to do is just running errands. Now that he goes out by himself, who does not treat himself respectfully?
Zhongli sent a letter to Zhao Yiyan, suggesting that he could let the people in the barracks save people, on the one hand, they could exercise in the cold snow, and on the other hand, they were physically stronger, and they could save people in time.
Zhao Yiyan quickly sent troops, and several other generals received orders and followed suit.
It's just that Zhong Li didn't expect that Zhong Liyue, who had been under General Wang's command, was also sent out, and soon, he saw the soldiers around Zhao Yiyan come to pay a visit, and sent a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
Zhongli Yue has contracted the plague!
Hearing this, Zhongli had a feeling that the sky was falling. He always knew that there would be a big epidemic after the catastrophe, but he didn't expect that the epidemic would come so quickly, even in such a winter of ice and snow. At the same time, there are other people in the Zhong family who feel this way. They never thought that Zhong Liyue, who had always been in good health, would be infected with the plague.
Zhongli forced himself to calm down, it was just a plague, nothing to be afraid of, right? She will definitely save the third brother!
Zhong Li bit his lip and called Zhong Liyu to tell him what he thought.
"You really decided that? Otherwise, let me go! You know what you mean to the entire Zhong family, and I will take care of Xiao Sandi. It's you, you can't have an accident. ”
Zhongli was anxious at this time, frowning and looking at his eldest brother, "I believe that you will guard this family for us." Rest assured, we won't be touched again. Moreover, I am more experienced, I will go first. Don't say what I stand for, I'm just me. Didn't you do a good job when I was in prison? Say no more, I'm up to it. After making up his mind, Zhongli asked people to sew masks, took the two doctors in the family who volunteered, and took the medicinal herbs to General Wang's military camp in a carriage.
Zhong Liyu originally didn't let her go, but Zhong Li persuaded her, there was no way, Zhong Liyu could only watch her walk away in the carriage.
"Big brother, second brother will be fine, right?" Zhong Liyu nervously held Zhong Liyu's hand, his eyes full of nervousness.
"yes, she'll be fine." Zhong Liyu actually didn't know the bottom in her heart, but she didn't show anything on the surface.
After Zhongli left, she would let the people in the Zhuangzi drink a bowl of ginger soup every day, and then clean the inside and outside of the Zhuangzi to completely eliminate the plague.
And here, before dark, Zhongli finally arrived at Qingping Town, she didn't rest, she walked directly to the barracks where Zhongli Yue was, and when she saw everything inside, her brows furrowed.
It's an abandoned place, and the environment inside can only be described in three words, dirty! Disorderly! Difference! Living in a place like this, it's no wonder you get the flu.
Zhong Li sighed, Zhong Li Yue was inside, he had to go forward, but he was stopped by a soldier after only a few steps, "This son, General Wang said, these people are already terminally ill, don't make senseless sacrifices." ”
This is General Wang's original words, in fact, according to Zhong Liyue's physical fitness, he should not be infected with the plague, but these days, they have been helping the people in Qingping Town who were crushed to death by the heavy snow, and those people were sealed in the mountains, and when they went to the rescue, they were already dead. And after too long, bacteria grew on them, and it evolved into the current situation.
These soldiers are not unreasonable, but now the flu is just right, and there is an epidemic, and they are still saving people over there, so they can't spare their hands at all. Now they have no medicine, no medicine, even if there is a doctor, there is nothing they can do, they can only watch these former comrades die of illness.
"Get out of the way." Zhongli said coldly. She knew that General Wang was kind, and as a general, it was understandable for him to make such a decision, but these people, she thought she could still save them.
"This son, please don't embarrass me." The soldiers didn't let it go, although Zhongli was a man to the outside, but in terms of physical strength, she was far inferior to a real man, and besides, it wasn't like pulling and pulling here.
Zhongli calmed down and spoke, "Take me to see your general." ”
The soldier breathed a sigh of relief and pointed to the room in front of him, "The general is inside, the second son will go by himself, I will still guard here." ”
Zhongli ignored him and walked forward with Rumo.
Walking to the door, Zhongli saw a man in his thirties sitting in the room, his face full of sadness, looking very haggard. It's no wonder that something like this happens.
Zhong Li knocked on the door, "General Wang, I am the second son of the Zhong family, Zhong Li. ”
Hearing the voice, General Wang looked up at the person at the door, in the snow, Zhongli was dressed in red, like the only hope, he eagerly walked to the door, licked the corners of his lips in a hurry and said, "Second son, please." He had heard about Canggu City before, and it was she who single-handedly turned the situation around, and he couldn't help but believe that Zhongli would also bring them hope.
"General, I want to see my brother." Zhongli didn't talk nonsense, and directly explained his intentions. "But ......" General Wang has seen Zhong Liyue's condition, and he can really describe him as terminally ill.
But in the face of Zhongli's cold face, he couldn't say anything if he refused, and he said dejectedly: "You go in." "After getting the general's permission, Zhongli was finally able to see Zhongli Yue.
When she stepped into the makeshift house and looked at the yellow-skinned children inside, Zhongli's heart was sullen, these children had only come this year, they had not yet been on the battlefield, but they fell ill in the plague.
Zhongli moved forward step by step, and at the end, she saw Zhong Liyue lying on the bed, he looked like a different person than when he left, there was no flesh left on his face, and his skinny appearance made Zhongli dare not look at it at a glance, she raised her head and took a deep breath, forcibly put away her tears, squatted in front of Zhong Liyue and said, "Third brother, second brother is here." ”
Zhong Liyue, who was sleeping groggily, heard the voice, and barely opened his eyes, and the sight was Zhongli's familiar face, a trace of deep guilt flashed in his heart, originally he wanted to protect his family, but he didn't expect that he still wanted the second sister to protect.
Zhong Liyue squirmed his lips, but he couldn't say a word.
"Okay, don't move yet, I'll save you." Zhongli sorted out her emotions, and now at this time, she had to calm down in order to deal with their affairs in the shortest possible time.
She looked around the room, not to mention the dampness here, it was still very cold, and they were already sick, and they couldn't afford to be treated like this, which would only aggravate their deaths. Zhongli took a deep breath and said to Rumo, who was wearing a mask next to him, "Go and call a few soldiers over and tear down these walls." ”
"Huh?" Rumo didn't react a little, why did you tear down the wall well, and didn't you just can't see the wind when you're sick?
"Do as I say." Zhongli didn't have the time or energy to explain anything to him.
Rumo didn't ask questions, and immediately told General Wang what Zhongli meant, General Wang sighed, waved his hand and said, "Whatever he does, you just follow her arrangement." ”
