CHAPTER XIX

The further he went, the more he felt that this city was weird, and it wasn't until he saw the medicine house that he saw the number of people a city should have.

"Girl, are you here to see a doctor?" Qiu Shang asked suspiciously when he saw Yu Jie.

"No, the little woman's name is Yan Jie, I heard that the epidemic here is serious, so I came to see if there is any way to help, I guess I came here."

"That girl is also a kind-hearted person, it just so happens that I came here a few days ago, I wonder if it is someone who knows the girl?"

"Oh no, I'm coming alone."

"Then come with me to the backyard, and you can get to know each other, oh, in the enemy."

"Okay."

Qiu Shang took Lan Jie to the backyard, and Liuli and Qi Lianxun had been busy preparing and boiling medicine.

"Liuli, Qifan."

"Brother Qiu, we're busy, what is this?" Liuli looked at the girl in front of her and felt that something was weird, but she couldn't say it.

"Oh, this is Yan Jie, she also heard that the epidemic here is serious, so she came to help." After speaking, Qiu Shang turned his head and introduced to Yan Jie: "This is Qifan, Liuli." ”

"The first time we met, I took care of it later."

"You're welcome, come, I'll show you what we're doing." Liuli said enthusiastically.

Qiu Shang saw that they got along well when they met, and he was relieved, "Then I'll go back to the front hall to get busy." ”

"Okay, Brother Qiu, go get busy."

After Qiu Shang left, Qi Lianxun said to Liuli: "You take her to understand first, and I'll take a look here." ”

"Okay, I'll leave it to you." After that, Liuli pulled Yan Jie, "Let's go, I'll introduce you here." ”

"Okay."

"The epidemic here is very serious, as you know, we only came here a few days ago. However, when we first arrived, there were more people on the streets than there are now, and we found it inappropriate for people to gather, so we asked them to stay in their own homes the rest of the time except to see a doctor. Brother Qiu came earlier than us, and it happened that he just happened to catch up with the epidemic and stayed. ”

"So you, have you found a cure for this epidemic now?"

"Not yet, all we can do now is control, and it is also a symptom rather than a cure."

"Well, what can I do, I just happen to know some pharmacology."

"That's great, here are some herbs, usually need to be sorted, the medicine store also needs to prepare medicine, usually we will boil some medicine, try the effect."

"Okay, then I'll help you guys."

"Okay," Liuli thought for a moment, and still asked, "The girl came alone?" ”

"Yes."

"Why? This epidemic is so serious, and there is a risk. ”

"I've been alone since I was a child, I learned some pharmacology, and I want to help the world and save people, so I'm not a doctor or half a doctor."

"In this way, that girl is also beautiful and kind."

"Where, what about you?"

"We're about the same as the girl."

"So you're husband and wife?"

"Ah, it's not." Liuli was taken aback by the question, and she couldn't tell the truth, so she could only pretend to be shy and said: "We haven't actually married yet, but we have made a private agreement for life." ”

"Oh, then I wish you a long time, and grow old together."

"Thank you," the topic couldn't be talked about any further, and the business was important, so Liuli quickly changed the topic and said, "Then let's get busy." ”

"Okay."

At night, after a busy day, it was also to welcome the joining of Lan Jie, Qiu Shang specially prepared a table of good dishes to entertain.

"Today, we ushered in a new member, I specially made this table of dishes to welcome, it may be a little rough, I hope Jie will not dislike it."

"No, no, I hope everyone can take care of it in the future and toast you with tea instead of wine." With that, he raised his teacup to drink, but was stopped by the enemy businessman.

"Wait, let's have a drink together, and encourage each other for the days to come."

"Okay."

After dropping the cup, it's time to start enjoying the food, Liuli's deep love for food has never changed, and Qi Lianxun is really down when he looks at Liuli.

Qiu Shang noticed that Liuli was eating happily, so he joked: "I didn't expect Liuli to be so thin, but her appetite is so good, it seems that Qiu was sluggish before." ”

Liuli was still chewing meat in her mouth at this time, and she wanted to open her mouth but couldn't open her mouth, Qi Lianxi replied for Liuli: "No, in fact, I usually do it very well, but today there is a newcomer, and she is also very happy, so her appetite is better." ”

The meat in Liuli's mouth hadn't been swallowed yet, and Qi Lianxun only nodded vigorously at Qi Lianxun's words, humming loudly.

Yan Jie smiled: "It seems that Qifan knows Liuli very well, and Liuli has found a good husband." ”

Liuli was eating meat, and it was inevitable that she would still blush, so she turned her head to look at Qi Lianxi, Qi Lianxi also knew that Liuli didn't know how to say it, so she said: "Actually, I'm not good enough, in the future, I will definitely make her happy." ”

"Hahaha," Qiu Shang smiled and said, "It's rare to meet someone so affectionate in life, I bless you!" "Anyway, raise the teacup and drink it all, it's time to toast.

"Thank you." Qi Lianxun also returned the salute.

After the feast, it was time to discuss accommodation.

"I can go outside and find an inn to live in." Yan Jie said: "You don't have to worry, I also know a little bit about pharmacology, so I can take care of myself." ”

"No! How can you let a girl's family let you go out to live, besides, now that the epidemic is so serious, isn't it a sheep to go outside? Qiu Shang said firmly.

"yes, or you'll live with me, right?" Ruri echoed.

"That's okay, wronged Brother Qifan, live with me."

"Ah, not aggrieved."

"......"

"Hey, no, but, it's decided, or, do you dislike me?"

"No, no, how come?"

"Then don't argue anymore."

"Okay."

At night, Liuli and Yan Jie cleaned up the room together, and Lan Jie probably knew in his heart that they were from the Qingqiu faction, and asked tentatively: "Liuli, how long have you known each other together?" ”

"Huh? In fact, we haven't known each other for a long time, and we have been together less and more before, and we have experienced some things before we realized that each other is very important to us, so we came together. ”

"So, where are you from?"

"We, the area around Qilan Mountain."

"Qilan Mountain?"

"yes, are you too?"

"No, I've just been there by chance, it's beautiful."

"Yes, it's a picturesque place, and it's also very bustling."

"I envy you!"

"Ah, you'll meet it later, too."

Qiu Shang made the bed and said to Qi Lianxi: "Today, you can be wronged and share a bed with me, rest assured that I don't have any bad habits." ”

Qi Lianxi smiled: "Don't be wronged, I've never been worried." ”

"But you don't think about that girl?"

"It's okay," Qi Lianxun thought about it and asked, "Brother Qiu, do you have someone you like?" For so long, it looked like you were alone, alone. ”

"I, yes, just temporarily separated for some reason, I'm sure I'll meet again."

"If you can be liked by Brother Qiu, it must be a gentle and virtuous woman."

"It's okay, in fact, at the beginning, she was a clever and eccentric little girl like Liuli, but then she experienced a lot of things, people, they will always change." Qiu Shang turned to a more serious tone, like an elder brother educating his younger brother, and said earnestly: "You have to pamper Liuli well, let her always be so lively and lovely, she is a good girl who deserves it." ”

"I know, I will."

In the next few days, Liuli Qi Lianxi and Yan Jie were busy helping during the day, and their movements were restricted when they lived together at night, and their respective plans were not launched, and the research on prescriptions could be regarded as making some progress.

"This medicine is boiled for the first time, and it needs to be tested, have you volunteered to try it first?"

At the moment of "I, me, I ......", everyone seemed to see a life-saving straw, and they all wanted this bowl, regardless of whether it would succeed or not. For a while, they had no choice, so they could only watch the patients in front of them arguing and fighting. Suddenly, an old woman stepped forward, snatched the decoction, and drank it all. Everyone was stunned for a while, waiting to see the old woman's reaction, the old woman felt that it would be better after drinking the medicine, and laughed happily, just about to thank Qiu Shang and his party, but a mouthful of blood spurted out and fainted to the ground.

Qiu Shang Liuli and the others looked at each other, they didn't expect this kind of result, in order to confirm, Qiu Shang checked and determined that he was dead. After everyone saw the results, they were not in a hurry to get new medicines, and they were content to continue their lives.

"What to do, we've been studying these days, and we're still failing." Ruri said worriedly.

Qiu Shang was also a little weak, but he also comforted: "It's okay, the coming day is long, take your time." ”

Qi Lianxun said to Qiu Shang: "But I see that Brother Qiu's prescription has changed a little recently, and I think it has also begun to improve." ”

"yes, I've made some changes, so let's take our time and find an antidote."

"Hmm."

At night, Liuli and Jie fell asleep early, but in the middle of the night, an uninvited guest came to wander outside the window.

"Brother Qiu, have you seen Liuli?"

"I didn't see it, I didn't see it, the two of them should be lying in bed today, too, it's been too hard these days, let them rest more."

"No, I don't know about Jie Jie, but although Liuli is usually playful, she won't slack off in front of business, Brother Qiu, let's go take a look."

"Alright, let's take a look."

"Ruri, Ruri, are you awake? Glass? Qi Lianxun shouted while knocking on the door, but there was no answer in the room, "Then I'll come in?" With that, he pushed the door open.

As soon as I entered the house, I could ask about the smell of burning herbs, "This smell is poisonous!" Cover your mouth and nose! Hurry up and save Ruri and Jiejie! Qiu Shang smelled this smell and hurriedly admonished.

"Brother Qiu, what kind of poison did they have?"

"It's a mandala, legend has it that it only grows in the Western Regions, and after this flower is dried, the smell of burning can paralyze the nerves, eat people's hearts and lungs for a long time, and finally die. I can configure a prescription for inhibition, but judging from the inhalation amount of Liuli and Yanjie, if I can't find an antidote, I can only ....... ”

"What can it be?"

"I can only wait until I die."

"How so? Who's the killer? ”

"Actually, I've always felt that this epidemic came suddenly and strangely, wasn't someone maliciously putting it on?"

"There is this possibility, it seems that we are blocking his way, so he came to poison him, and only picked on girls, which is insidious enough."

"Now the lives of the two girls are the most important, you come and take care of the two of them, and I will go and boil medicine for them."

"Okay."

After Qiu Shang left, Qi Lianxun looked at Liuli and thought: It seems that this epidemic is indeed not accidental, but I am sure that it must not be me, that is, someone deliberately did it, or wanted to blame me.
