Chapter 89: Saving People
The woman saw Shu Mei get out of the car and kowtowed to her several times.
"Noble, please save my child!"
Lixia couldn't bear it, she wanted to go over, but was stopped by Shu Mei, although she had the heart to save people, but now in extraordinary times, she also had to guard against some. I got out of the car and came to see it, I was afraid that the two maids had never seen this kind of thing, and I softened my heart for a while.
Shu Mei couldn't see the child's face, and was going to ask the guards to bring the child over to take a look.
As soon as he finished giving the order, he saw a little maid get down from the carriage that had been gone in front of him and run over.
"This young lady, you wait a minute!"
Shu Mei looked at this maid who was a little smaller than Lixia coming over, panting and said: "Our young lady said that the Qinghe River has been flooded, and there is a plague, and several villages have been burned, and the displaced people in this vicinity may come from over there, so miss, you still don't want to go over." ”
It turned out that they didn't stop because of this, and after Shu Mei thought about it, he understood the behavior of the people in the car.
Hearing that it was the plague, Lixia and Lu Yan were nervous, and they couldn't wait to get into the car with Shu Mei and leave, but seeing the woman crying miserably, they couldn't put their hearts down, so they could only look at Shu Mei to see how she decided.
In fact, Shumei's medical skills are not good, but he knows a lot about the plague. In the years when they followed Master to the south, there were often outbreaks of plague after the flood, and they came down to see it a few times along the way.
To show that Master Cang is indeed a bold person who is not afraid of death, ordinary people avoid walking when they hear about the plague in the village, she just wants to go deep into the epidemic area to see, how many can be saved. I don't know if it's because of her good medical skills or luck, in the past few years, neither of them has been infected with the plague, which has increased Master Mingcang's confidence.
However, Shu Mei concluded that her master is not the kind of reckless person, and she has made full preparations before and after going to the epidemic area, and it is reasonable not to be infected.
Although this child may really be a plague at the moment, Shu Mei is not afraid, if he is allowed to fend for himself here, then the spread of the epidemic will be even more difficult to control.
When the woman heard the little maid mention the plague, her body trembled, and she couldn't knock down: "Nobleman, we came from Qinghe, but we escaped before the plague." As he spoke, he coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood.
This look really looked like she was infected with the plague, and the frightened little maid stepped back, pointed at the woman and said, "Just dare to say that it is not a plague!" ”
The guards were also shocked when they heard this, and they prepared to step forward and drive away.
"I'm ......" The woman couldn't speak, so she put the child aside and said, "The child is just hungry, not sick, since the nobleman suspects that I am sick, then burn my body when I die." ”
Before Shu Mei could react, the woman crashed headlong into the big tree next to her, and blood flowed everywhere, scaring several maids into discoloration.
"Please, save ......"
Even when she was dying, the woman still stared at Shu Mei, hoping that she would agree.
Shu Mei was also a little helpless, the first time he encountered such a request for help, he actually used this method. If she really contracted the plague, the child would probably have been infected with her for so long, and even if she died, the child might not survive. But if the child is okay and she dies again when she is suspected, then the child is saved.
The woman sacrificed herself for the little hope she had.
Although Shu Mei felt a little silly, he couldn't help but be moved.
In her previous life, she also didn't understand why Master was so persistent and didn't care about her own safety to save people. Later, the master told her that although she couldn't save the people in the world, she could save one person.
Hearing Shu Mei agree, the woman closed her eyes, and from beginning to end, Shu Mei didn't know what her name was.
"Thank you, go back and thank your young lady for me."
Seeing Shu Mei like this, the little maid also understood what she meant, secretly pursed her lips, saluted Shu Mei, and then hurriedly ran back to the car in front, for fear that she would be entangled by the plague when she jogged one step.
"Miss, that person really doesn't listen to persuasion, and is kind enough to treat it as a donkey's liver and lungs." The little maid remembered that Shu Mei insisted on saving people, and she felt angry.
There was a young woman sitting in the car, and when she heard this, she said lightly: "Forget it, let her go." ”
"To save people, we have to see if we have that ability, it's really infuriating."
The woman didn't speak again, closing her eyes and resting.
I didn't go far before I heard the little maid exclaim: "The back is on fire!" They seemed to have burned the corpses. ”
Yes, Shu Mei burned the woman's body.
Thinking of the woman's words, something flashed in Shu Mei's mind, and disappeared before he could catch it.
Before being sure whether it was the plague or not, Shu Mei really didn't dare to act rashly, asked the guards to cover their mouths and noses, and then lit a fire from a distance to set the woman's body on fire.
Nowadays, it is important to be safe in the ground, but Shu Mei remembers that this is how the master disposed of the corpses infected with the epidemic. Then Shu Mei also covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and went over to see the child.
Lixia and Green Goose couldn't stop them, and they were ordered by Shu Mei to wait in place.
After Shu Mei passed, he found that the child looked like he was seven or eight years old, and he looked like a little boy, his face was dirty and he couldn't see his face, and he was amazingly thin. As if sensing the heat of the fire, his eyelids moved slightly.
After some examination, Shu Mei found that the child was really not sick, there was no heat on his body and there were no wounds, and his pulse was only a little weak, and there was no major problem.
Shu Mei was relieved, but he still sighed a little when he remembered the woman's resolute death just now.
Because Shu Mei said that the child was fine, Lixia and the others also stepped forward, and it was not convenient to clean here, and there was a burning corpse not far away, which was really not suitable for a long stay.
Shu Mei didn't let the guards help, and carried the child into the car by herself. Because even if it is her, it is easy to hold this child, I really don't know what hardships he has suffered at such a young age.
Since you are not sick, it will not be a problem to take it to Myomine-an.
Shu Mei told Mrs. Qingxu about the child, and asked her to diagnose it, and made sure that the child was just too weak, so she was relieved.
Qingxu Shitai had also heard about the Qinghe water, but according to what she said, some of the refugees had arrived on the outskirts of the city, and she had not heard of the plague.
Shu Mei couldn't help but wonder which lady in the car in front of her reminded her of the plague, so well-informed.
After going back, Lixia and Lu Yan had already cleaned up the child, and when they looked at it, they were very surprised, but they didn't expect that this dirty and thin child would be a little girl with beautiful facial features after washing it.
