In the middle of the night, outside the station.

Three or five beggars in ragged clothes gathered together and muttered quietly.

"Do you really want to do that?"

"Yes, it has to be ...... I've seen it, the woman got off the carriage during the day, and she must have had money on her. ”

"That's her, we must get the money, otherwise we ......"

He didn't finish his words, but the others understood what he meant, and their eyes became firm.

"Do it!"

The beggar at the head gave an order, and several other people entered the post station together.

Song Qingyou spent money to get a spare room from the bearded man, and rested in the room with Xiao Qishu at night.

Since the beginning of exile, Xiao Qishu has fallen into a deep sleep to recover his strength except when he is unwell and unable to persevere.

Therefore, when someone entered the room in the dark, Xiao Qishu woke up as soon as possible.

He didn't get up immediately to check the situation, but quietly waited for the other party's movements, and when the person slowly approached, Xiao Qishu's muscles began to tense, and he was in a state that could explode at any time.

Song Qingyou was asleep, and she didn't notice that someone was quietly coming to her bed.

The man in the dark grinned, and reached out to grab Song Qingyou, but before his hand touched Song Qingyou, Xiao Qishu had already shot like thunder, directly grabbed the beggar's hand and cut it behind him.

"Ahh

The beggar woke up Song Qingyou with a cry of pain, and at the same time alerted several other accomplices, turned around and fled outside, but when they dared to flee to the door, they were blocked by the officials who rushed to hear the news, and they were easily taken down.

"Who are you? Why dive in in the middle of the night? ”

The official pressed a few people and questioned angrily.

The people in the second room of the Xiao family's big room also gathered around when they heard the movement, and when they saw these beggars, they immediately remembered the events of the day, and their faces couldn't help but become ugly.

At this time, the beggar who was caught by Xiao Qishu was also thrown out, and Song Qingyou helped Xiao Qishu to stand at the door, looking out coldly.

She didn't expect that these beggars would be so bold and dare to enter their room in the middle of the night.

"Honestly, what do you want to do?"

The knife in the bearded man's hand was directly inserted on the table, flashing a few cold lights, so frightened that the beggar's legs were weak, and he didn't dare to hide it anymore.

"We just wanted money, and when we saw that this lady had money, we wanted to kidnap her and ask for some ransom...... We have no choice, we don't have money for treatment, we're all going to die......"

The unkempt beggar lowered his head timidly and whispered, the exposed skin already a little festering, densely covered with scratched scabs.

The beggar's words made Song Qingyou's face change slightly.

If Xiao Qishu hadn't been vigilant tonight, I'm afraid he would have been quietly kidnapped by someone at this moment.

The beggar kept begging for mercy: "There are many people who have died, we don't want to die, please give us some money to ask for a doctor." ”

"A lot of people died?"

Song Qingyou's instinct as a doctor immediately grasped the point of the beggar's words, and his brows furrowed.

The beggar nodded, for fear that others would not believe him, and poured beans into the bamboo tube to tell all the details.

Song Qingyou only then knew that among those beggars did not know when a disease appeared, vomiting and diarrhea, and many people were killed in a short period of time, and some people wanted to ask a doctor for treatment, but they were all people who had no money, and they couldn't invite a doctor at all, so some people thought of the idea of robbing money.

"Vomiting and diarrhea, dying quickly...... This is, cholera! ”

In an instant, Song Qingyou guessed what the illness was, and his face suddenly changed, and he immediately took a few steps back with Xiao Qishu.

Seeing Song Qingyou's reaction, the others hurriedly asked, "Do you know anything?" ”

"If he is not wrong, it is a highly contagious form of cholera, which causes people to vomit and diarrhea in a short period of time, and then their bodies become dehydrated and weakened to death......

As soon as Song Qingyou's words fell, the others also took several steps back almost at the same time, far away from a few beggars, and their faces were full of fear.

"This, this is an epidemic!"

Old Madam Xiao muttered, and the others had the same idea in their hearts.

In this era, diseases that occur on a large scale and have serious consequences are called epidemics, and each outbreak means that many people will lose their lives.

"They've definitely been in contact with those sick people, maybe they're sick themselves, so what should they do? We were so close to them just now, we couldn't be infected, right? ”

Xiao Ningning shouted, her little face pale.

Tang Yulian's legs were almost weak, Xiao Yiran looked at the beggars with a sinking face, and stepped back a little unnoticeably, and Lin Shuang in the second room even stopped her children behind her, preventing them from getting close for half a minute.

The bearded man instantly drew the knife from his waist and aimed it at the beggars, his face full of anger.

"Bastard, since you are sick, why do you still come out and shake around, let the epidemic spread, you have a few heads enough to cut off!"

If it weren't for the fact that he might be infected if he approached, the bearded man would have stepped forward and cut down several people, and it would not be a pity for this kind of untouchable to die.

The beggars kowtowed and begged for mercy, and the scene was quite chaotic for a while.

"Where are the sick people you are talking about?"

Song Qingyou suddenly asked, and after receiving the answer, he immediately turned back to the bearded man and said, "Now we must organize people to isolate those places as soon as possible, so as not to continue to spread the virus......"

Listening to Song Qingyou's eloquent conversation, Xiao Ningning's eyes were full of jealousy and hatred, but after thinking about it, a vicious thought immediately appeared in his mind.

"Song Qingyou, since you know medical skills, and you hear you say so much, there must be a way to solve it, right? It's better for you to treat them, so as not to spread the virus and harm people. ”

Xiao Ningning said, and called out his beard pretentiously: "My lord, what do you think of this idea?" ”

Although the bearded man had lost face because of Xiao Ningning before, when Xiao Ningning took the initiative to dedicate himself to appease her a few times, he forgave her, and at this time, he was shouted by her soft voice, and naturally turned his heart to Xiao Ningning's side, and after this period of observation, he also found that Song Qingyou must have more good things hidden in his body, and he had long wanted to find a way to solve the problem, and then take those good things for himself.

What's more, this epidemic is not a trivial matter, and every time it appears, more than 1,000 people will be killed or injured. This Song Qingyou said it conclusively, with a confident look, maybe she really has some good way to cure the disease.

If not, she would have been an exile and would have died, and there would be no loss in throwing her on the spot.

But if he is really cured, he will report to the top and take the credit on himself, is he afraid that he will not come out of the day?

With such a trade-off, he quickly had a number in his heart.

"Third Madam Xiao, since you boast of knowing medical skills, then the matter of treating those people will be handed over to you."

The bearded man directly threw this matter to Song Qingyou, completely ignoring whether she agreed or not.

Xiao Ningning was proud in her heart, and immediately echoed: "My lord, if she can't be cured, she will definitely be a lie if she said that she knows how to heal, this kind of liar can't be kept, and it is most appropriate to kill him directly." ”

The bearded man nodded in agreement: "That's right, if you dare to lie to me, you have to think about your own end." ”

Song Qingyou looked at the two of them singing and harmonizing, and sneered in his heart.

It seems that these people can't wait to solve themselves.

Unfortunately, their wishful thinking is about to fail.

"Okay, I'll do that."
