"Miss Xiaoxi, please stay!"

I saw that not long after Xiao Xi stepped out of Fuyi Hall, Li Bo chased after her and stopped her.

He brought over the basket full of precious medicinal herbs and said to Xiao Xi, "Alas...... You girl...... If it weren't for the friendship between me and your father back then, I would have opened the net, not to mention that you are also saving people, take this basket of herbs and see if there is anything that can help you, this time I will give it to you for free Anyway, there is also a stock. ”

"That'...... Thank you so much, Lieber. Xiao Xi turned her head and took the basket and thanked her.

"Alas...... Xiaoxi, you have to pay attention to hygiene and cleanliness when you go there! Don't be infected with that disease, you can save people, but the premise here is to save your life first...... I can only wish you good luck, my side has limited manpower, and the only one who can help is these medicinal herbs, if it is not enough, you can come again. Li Bo sighed deeply, he patted Xiao Xi's shoulder and said.

"Thank you, Uncle Li, then I'll go first, the patient is still waiting for me." Xiao Xi bowed deeply to Li Bo, then turned around and left with a basket full of herbs on his back.

Li Bo looked at Xiaoxi's departing back and inadvertently sighed: "Alas...... Girl, you can say such responsible words, it seems that your father really didn't teach you in vain...... If you can heal those people, you're a true hero!"

At the gate of Yishou Village, the people are looking forward to Xiaoxi's return...... A moment later, Xiao Xi arrived here with a basket full of herbs.

"Great, girl, you're back. ”

"There are so many herbs, and some of them are cured. ”

She instructed everyone, "Guys, I'd like to tap on the number of people, how many patients are there now?"

"Girl, there are only 260 people left on our side, and fortunately there is some water and food saved in the rain a few days ago, but I guess ...... Alas, it won't last long. An old man said.

Later, Xiao Xi wrote a recipe and sorted out the herbs and distributed them to the sick family members, so that they could boil a decoction and take it, although they survived the crisis for the time being.

But three days later, six of the elderly, critically ill patients still failed to survive the erosion of the disease and died...... At this time, there were only 254 patients left.

At this time, due to the pollution of the well water, the rainwater stored in the village's homes and the little food supply left can last for another two or three days at most.

"Now...... There are still a lot of problems that need to be sorted out at the moment......" Xiao Xi frowned and stood on the street thinking about it.

At this time, Xiao Xi wandered around the village and town to take a look, and finally she walked to a large and simple wooden house, looked around, turned around and said to the patient's family: "Everyone, I need to help turn this house into a temporary pharmacy, I want to put the patients here and isolate them for treatment, so it will be a lot more convenient, who will help you?"

Immediately afterwards, some of the family members who were not sick volunteered: "I do! I am willing to ......."

After everyone's concerted efforts to renovate, this spacious house has been transformed into a simple pharmacy, and Xiaoxi holds a manual in her hand, and she uses a brush to record the names of each patient, as well as the daily life bits and pieces of life.

Although the supply of medicinal materials is available, the shortage of water and food is still a major problem.

Every day and night, Xiaoxi can only serve gruel and light rice for each patient, and occasionally bring some meals from home for everyone to eat, but it still can't solve too big a problem.

One night, Xiao Xi sat on the edge of the bed and told a story to a sick little girl.

"Sister...... Can I still see the sun tomorrow?" said the little girl as she looked at Xiao Xi with a look of despair.

Xiao Xi stroked the girl's forehead with her hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, my sister is here." ”

"Sister...... I've been lying here for a long time...... It's been a long time, ahem...... I really want to see what the outside world is like. ”

"The outside world is wonderful, this is easy to do. ”

Afterwards, Xiao Xi brought a piece of cloth and some needles and threads and other tools for sewing clothes and said to her: "Xiao Nai, what do you want to see the most? ”

"Sea ...... I want to see the sea, and I heard that the sea is as blue as the sky, is it true?" said the little girl.

"Of course it's true, sister, I'll embroider ...... for you," Xiao Xi picked up a piece of white cloth, picked a blue thread roll, and began to thread needles and threads on the white cloth to make beautiful art paintings.

After a while, Xiao Xi really embroidered the white cloth into a picture of the ocean, she handed the picture to Xiao Nai and said, "Look, is this what the sea likes?"

"Thank you, sister, for being by my side for so many days...... I thought I would leave this world forever......"

"Xiao Nai, you have to believe that you can live, it's okay, if you feel unwell, do you have to tell your sister in time?" Xiao Xi said with a smile.

At this moment, there was a sharp knock on the door, "Knock knock!"

After Xiao Xi comforted the girl and covered her with a quilt, she walked out of the door, pushed open the door and saw that it was a middle-aged woman, she showed an anxious expression and asked Xiao Xi: "Miss Xiao Xi, how is my Xiao Nai?"

After Xiaoxi walked out of the room, she gently closed the door and sighed to the woman and said, "Alas...... The situation is still not optimistic, I didn't expect this disease to be so tenacious...... Even after taking medicine for a week, it still didn't get better, and the high fever didn't go away. ”

"That'...... Is there any hope for my child to be saved?" said the woman with tears in her eyes, a little emotional.

“...... All I can say is do what I have to do and save one more patient if I can. Xiao Xi said after hesitating.

"Miss Xiaoxi, please, you must save my child!" the woman said as she knelt down in front of Xiaoxi crying.

"Auntie, what are you doing, get up quickly, don't worry, I will do my best to save your child. Xiao Xi helped the woman up and said.

“...... But what is lacking now is food and water...... These must be solved as soon as possible, and children cannot eat vegetarian dishes all the time, if only there was meat. Xiao Xi thought about it.

"yes...... It hasn't rained for several days lately, and there is not much water in store, so the food left behind can last for two days at most...... Alas, Miss Xiaoxi is really sorry to let you, a young girl, suffer with us. The woman said.

"Auntie, I'm not hard, but don't worry, I'll figure out a way about food and water, and I'll go back early to rest when it's so late. Xiao Xi said.

Later, after Xiaoxi witnessed her aunt leaving, she also returned to the room, and there was a candle on a wooden table, and she looked through the faint candlelight to look at the manual she had recorded, which read:

First Patient: Ah Tao

man

Age 10 years old

I heard from the villagers that this little boy was the first to be infected with the plague, and when I first saw him, his symptoms were severe, with a pale face and chapped lips followed by a cough......

But the first time the boy saw me, he still showed a desire for life, and his watery eyes told me that he wanted to live...... But I know in my heart that this disease is difficult to cure, and sometimes people just don't want to give up on challenging things that are difficult, aren't they?

I tried a few prescriptions, but in the end it still didn't work, I guess maybe the combination of herbs is not right, I am still trying to overcome a series of difficulties in front of me, not only the disease, but also the mental test, the lack of food, water supply is also a big hidden danger I have to try my best to find a solution to the problem, now...... I can only take care of these 200 patients on my own, because now I am their only hope of survival!

Second Patient: Yang Bo

Male: 77 years old

He is an old uncle, but he didn't expect to have such a disease in his old age, but here his family is still by his side, and I often come to take care of his condition......

The third patient, Xiao Nai

Female: 8 years old

I didn't expect the disease to even let go of a cute child, Xiao Nai is a patient with a more serious condition I have seen, I tried my best to treat her condition but after several attempts to no avail, but this made me more determined to cure her.

She has been lying on the bed like this, like a frog at the bottom of the well, how eager for the outside world, even very eager to go to the town or the seaside to take a walk, to see, the world in front of me, fortunately I can embroider, every day I will tell her all kinds of anecdotes outside, gradually, I get along with more than 200 patients day and night, taking care of them has developed a deep feeling, that feeling is difficult to part, it has been buried deep in my heart, let me forever think of their faces......

............

In this way, the night was already very late, Xiao Xi was still writing her manual log, and she wrote it late, and she gradually fell asleep on the table.

The next morning, there was a rapid knock on the door, "Knock knock! knock knock!" Xiao Xi was awakened by this knock, she got up and walked to the door, opened the door, and saw that it was still the woman from yesterday, her eyes welled up with tears of excitement and sadness, and said: "Miss Xiao Xi!

"What's wrong with Auntie?"

"Go and see my child's room!" said the woman, pointing to Xiao Nai's room with trembling hands.

After Xiao Xi heard this, she did not hesitate to speed up her pace and ran to Xiao Xi's room, the door "squeak!" opened, but what caught her eye was that Xiao Nai was lying on the bed "asleep", her face had already lost her life, one of her hands was on the side of the bed, and she was still holding the embroidery painting of the sea that Xiao Xi gave her last night.

Tears welled up in Xiao Xi's eyes inadvertently, she came to Xiao Xi's side, picked up the embroidery painting, and still echoed in her ears the words that Xiao Nai asked her last night: "Sister...... Will I still see the sun tomorrow?"

Thinking of this, Xiao Xi's heart ached like a knife, and she also saw the horror of the plague for the first time at this moment......
