Chapter 41: Cooperation

Chu Qing snorted coldly, "Then? ”

He did deliberately leave a note for Xu Xiaoxiao, not to protect them, but to think that if there were more of them, going to Anle Town would cause trouble to the residents here.

In order to protect the residents of the city, he can only reduce the number of refugees outside the city, and he has not yet figured out a way to resettle the refugees, but can only ease their progress.

"Now that you know about smallpox, aren't you worried that there are already infected people in the city?" Xu Xiaoxiao saw Chu Qing's sneer, and a wave of anger rushed to his heart.

Is he looking down on her?

"Maybe the girl doesn't know, there was smallpox in Anle Town ten years ago, and after the arrival of King Yan'an, he led the people to fight the plague, and finally successfully repelled the plague." Chu Qing touched the teacup and said.

"You mean that you are not afraid of a plague even if there is a plague in the city?" Xu Xiaoxiao asked rhetorically.

Chu Qing didn't answer immediately, pondered for a moment and replied, "It's not that we're not afraid, but we are sure to protect the people in the city." ”

"Protect the people of the city?" Xu Xiaoxiao snorted coldly, with a sarcastic smile on his face.

"Then you can ignore the people outside the city?"

"No, there is currently a shortage of manpower in Anle Town, and we must protect one party before we can have more energy to deal with the people outside the city." Chu Qing, who had always been indifferent, began to get excited, and his tone became a little heavier.

"To put it bluntly, you just want to abandon the car and protect the handsome." Xu Xiaoxiao felt that there was no need to communicate with Chu Qing, and got up to leave.

Isn't this the usual trick of capital, refugees have long been worthless, and it is not clear whether they carry the plague on their bodies, so the simple and crude method is not to clean up the rotten roots first.

"But thank you for the note, which saved Liujiacun from being slaughtered."

Xu Xiaoxiao took Chu Chu and Tie Zhu off the stool and pulled them out of the house.

"Wait, what massacre?" Chu Qing chased after him and grabbed Xu Xiaoxiao's hand.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked back coldly and shook off his palm, "Yesterday, the soldiers of your Anle Town slaughtered refugees outside the city, you don't know?" ”

"The screams echoed outside the city, would you hear them?"

"Last night?" Chu Qing lowered his head and thought about something, trying to think about what happened last night.

He arrived in Anle Town the night before yesterday, and then stayed in Li's pharmacy to treat Chu Guo's tuberculosis, last night he went to bed early, and today he still feels strange that he has always slept lightly in the last night until dawn, is it possible?

Someone gave him sweat pills?

Although Anle Town is a territory under his jurisdiction, there are not many people who know his identity, and those who can avoid the guards who have taken sweat medicine on his food must be the people around him.

Xu Xiaoxiao didn't have the patience to wait for Chu Qing to clear his mind, and pulled Chu Chu and Tie Zhu to the backyard, and then Doctor Li hurried back.

Dr. Li was old, and he would sweat profusely on his forehead when he took a few steps, and he was hunched over and panting as he told his men to grab medicine.

When I turned around, I saw Xu Xiaoxiao, with a kind smile on her face, "Girl, see a doctor?" ”

"No need, the little girl is here to find Gongzi Chu." Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded in reply.

At this time, Chu Qing also chased out, and when he saw Doctor Li, he nodded respectfully, "Doctor Li, you're back." ”

"Ah, yes, I'm going to see the little boy." Dr. Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked to the bungalow in the middle.

"Don't you think it's strange that the old man keeps wiping his sweat." Tie Zhu touched his chin and turned his head as Dr. Li moved.

Chu Qing found the iron pillar with an old-fashioned posture, and also followed his line of sight to look at Doctor Li.

"Doctor Li, wait a minute." Xu Xiaoxiao remembered the matter of selling the grandson of the embroidered pad, and trotted forward with doubts.

"May I ask how the child who just came to the doctor is doing?"

When Dr. Li heard that he was going to ask about the child, his face changed suddenly, his expression was flustered, his eyes rolled from side to side, and he hesitated for a long time before he spoke, "Very good, very good." ”

After speaking, he left quickly, leaving no chance for Xu Xiaoxiao to continue to ask.

This move surprised her even more, and it stands to reason that there was no reason for a simple visit to cause such a big fluctuation to Dr. Li, and it seemed that Dr. Li had something to hide.

Chu Qing also noticed Doctor Li's abnormal behavior, and narrowed Danfeng's eyes and watched Doctor Li enter the room thoughtfully.

"Why don't we work together?" Chu Qing looked back at Xu Xiaoxiao with a solemn expression.

Hmph, why do you dignitaries also need our refugee help? Xu Xiaoxin always had anger in his heart and sneered.

"Fang Cai has a bad attitude, so I can't compensate you." Chu Qing was able to stretch and apologize to Xu Xiaoxiao as he spoke.

"How do you know I can help you?" Xu Xiaoxiao said disdainfully.

"The girl's medical skills are obvious to all, and she can avoid the soldiers and enter the city, she must not be an ordinary woman," Chu Qing said.

"Before, I thought the girl was.... The person sent by the enemy family just talked to the girl and found that he was thinking too much. ”

He did have doubts about Xu Xiaoxiao's identity, but he despised the strength of the person in front of him, now the city is full of mysteries, the enemy is in the dark, he is in the light, all forces are gathered here, he can't use it, if he can use Xu Xiao's strength to solve the trouble, wouldn't it be a good thing.

"What do you think?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked down at Tie Zhu, who watched every move in the bungalow with his hands behind his back.

"Yes." Tie Zhu's attention was all on Dr. Li, and he scribbled when he answered.

After speaking, he walked towards the bungalow in the middle, and Chu Chu followed closely.

"Then let's go inside and talk." Xu Xiaoxiao didn't care about Chu Qing's surprised expression, and walked to the room by herself.

Chu Qing froze in place, unclear in the clouds, and entered the house with doubts.

Inside the room, Doctor Li sat on the edge of the bed to check Chu Guo's pulse, and then stroked his long beard and nodded.

He stood up and looked at Chu Qing: "Little boy, your breath is stable, thanks to those few medicines, the condition has been stabilized." ”

"Thank you, Dr. Lee." As soon as he heard that Chu Guo's condition had improved, Chu Qing's gloom receded a little.

"No thanks, the old man is just borrowing the light of the previous one, if he doesn't get medical treatment in time, I'm afraid that the old man will be helpless." Dr. Li hurriedly waved his hand and replied with a smile.

"May I ask Physician Li, did the child contract smallpox?" Xu Xiaoxiao didn't want to guess the riddles anymore, so she straightforwardly trayed the questions in her heart.

Dr. Li could not have imagined that the person in front of him would say smallpox so bluntly, knowing that the word smallpox is so frightening that no one dares to mention it.

"You.... It's..."The question was too sharp, and Dr. Li couldn't even reply for a while.

"Now that a large number of refugees have been infected outside the city, Xiaonu is just worried that smallpox has spread into the city." Xu Xiaoxiao said the worries in her heart together.

If a large number of smallpox appeared in and out of the city, I was afraid that it would affect Liujia Village, and even if I finally chose to bypass Anle Town and choose a dangerous road, I was afraid that it would be too late to leave.
