Hearing that Li Wanxiao muttered that he was going to Niujia Village, Brother Wang was startled, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Absolutely not!"

"Before leaving, the doctor specially instructed me, he said that if you find me, let me stop you, no matter what, I can't let you go to Niujia Village, it's too dangerous there, it's likely that the plague god lives in that village, and if you go, you will be sent to death!"

Hearing this, Wanxiao's heart became even heavier, Master is only a mortal after all, if there is really a legendary plague god in that village, Master can't deal with it at all!

Thinking of Master's teaching before leaving, Li Wanxiao couldn't stop chuckling in her heart, it seems that Master has been prepared, maybe he saw that this plague was caused by demons at the beginning, and he didn't tell himself that he didn't want to involve her, a little apprentice who didn't learn and didn't know how to learn.

"Brother Wang, don't say more, if there is really a plague god in that village, Master and they will definitely be more auspicious, I must go over and take a look, otherwise I will definitely not be at ease. ”

When Brother Wang was anxious to say something more, a little firmness flashed in Li's smiling eyes, she was no longer a child, and at this moment when the clouds were overwhelming, she had to do something for the master and the villagers.

Brother Wang, who was already uneducated, didn't know how to persuade her at this time, so he could only sigh and go out to arrange the room, it was cold and slippery outside, and Wanxiao would definitely not be able to go back tonight.

Ate half a bowl of rice hastily, and went back to the room to rest after leaving Wanxiao, thinking that he would get up and rush to Niujia Village at dawn tomorrow, since this matter was done by demons, then the master would definitely not be able to do anything, no matter what, he must persuade the master to go home, so as not to be targeted by the demons and harm his life.

I slept restlessly that night, and when I woke up in the morning, the rain outside had stopped. Walking to the hall in a daze, Brother Wang greeted her with a happy face for breakfast, and told her that his father and Dr. Li would come back before dawn today, and they were now making up for sleep.

Coming back?

Li Wanxiao was stunned, she was still thinking about finding someone after eating, but she didn't expect the master to come back by himself!

patted her chest and was shocked, and the little girl let out a sigh of relief and said, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back!"

"Brother Wang, are they all right?"

This is what she is most concerned about, Niujia Village doesn't know what the scene is now, he is very worried that Master will be infected with the plague, if that is the case, the matter will really reach the point of no control.

Fortunately, Brother Wang shook his head, smiled and comforted her: "My father and Dr. Li are fine, and my father also said that fortunately they ran fast, otherwise they would have been eaten by the plague god!"

Even the village chief said so, which shows how urgent the situation was at that time!

After tossing for a day and a night, Wanxiao's heart finally let go, she filled her stomach unhurriedly, and after eating and drinking, she didn't bother the master, and sat in the hall alone, looking at the gradually clearing sky in a daze.

Seeing that it was almost noon, the old man and the village chief got up one after another and came to the hall to drink tea and rest, and when they saw the little girl with a bright smile, the old man was full of helplessness, and the child still came after all.

"Master!" "A day is as if every other autumn, at this time, Li Wanxiao put all her troubles aside, and jumped and pounced on her master!

"Master, are you alright? Are you okay? Wanxiao is worried about dying!"

A series of care made the old master smile suddenly, and swept away the sad face before, "Don't worry, girl, Master is fine." Why did you come here on your own?"

Li Wanxiao obediently poured tea for the master and the village chief, and briefly talked about her idle thoughts and various worries, and finally couldn't help but come here, and when she saw the two of them return safely, the big stone in her heart was also put down.

The old man patted her little head dotingly, and pretended to be angry: "Only this once, not for example!"

The girl stuck out her tongue and sat obediently to listen to the master and the village chief discuss things.

"I already understand the condition of this plague, and I will start to make medicine after I go back, and when the prescription comes out, I will send Wanxiao to bring it to you, and I am afraid that a lot of medicinal materials will be needed at that time, and the village chief needs to think of a way to do this. ”

"Don't worry about leaving the doctor!" The village chief saw that the old man seemed to be confident, and his heart was naturally happy, "I have my own way in terms of medicinal materials, as long as I receive your prescription, I will immediately send someone to collect it in several surrounding towns, if it is not enough, I will let people go to the big county town to buy, although we don't have much money, but as long as we can help the villagers through this catastrophe, we will do everything, and I will not hesitate to do it." ”

"Good, good!"

Looking at the master's satisfied expression, Li Wanxiao frowned slightly in her heart, the master is modest, and he will never say that he will be able to cure any disease, after all, the king of Hades wants you to die in the third watch, and he will never leave anyone until the fifth watch.

After chatting for a few hours and having lunch, the master and apprentice walked back with the medicine box. Along the way, the master didn't speak, just walked in front silently, and when she saw this, she thought that the master must be thinking about countermeasures, so she followed silently.

After entering the house, the old man instructed Wanxiao to say that he would eat three meals a day in the room, and if he was fine, don't bother him, and Wanxiao nodded in response.

I never thought that the old master would really stay at home during this retreat, and for three days he would put the food at the door with Wanxiao, and then take the empty dishes to wash after a while, until on the fourth day, the old master opened the door and called Wanxiao in.

As soon as he entered the room, he smelled the strong smell of medicine coming from it, and the old man leaned back in his chair and was haggard, trembling and handing the written prescription to Wanxiao.

"This is a prescription for the plague, although the medicine prepared cannot cure the root cause, but it can also alleviate some of the symptoms, you take it and send it to the village chief. ”

After saying a few words, the old master coughed again and again, and his originally tough body seemed to be shaky, and he couldn't stop worrying in Wanxiao's heart, "Master, are you ......?"

The old man waved his hand, and the continuous coughing made a lot of blood overflow from the corners of his lips, and he took a cloth to wipe it off, and stuffed the prescription into Wanxiao's hand, "Girl, the teacher has never told you, when I brought you back to raise you, I calculated a hexagram for you, and the hexagram shows that your future blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, but you can't calculate your life, and you have never been sick for more than ten years, even the few times you accidentally ate poisonous weeds are all right." ”

Speaking of this, the old master couldn't help coughing up a few more traces of blood, and then continued after a sigh of relief: "Child, your fate is unpredictable, and Master Lu will no longer be able to accompany you in the future, as long as you follow your own heart, don't be disturbed by the outside world, and believe that with your heart and as a teacher, you will definitely make a difference." ”

"Master......" The words have come to this point, her eyes are hazy with tears in her eyes, she doesn't know what Master means by saying this, but she knows that her master is very likely to be infected with the plague and die soon.

"Master, you can't leave Wanxiao...... Wanxiao hasn't learned the scriptures yet, and she hasn't gone out to see someone by herself...... How can you feel comfortable smiling at a person?"

The choked voice carried a thick reluctance and pain, from childhood to adulthood, Master doted on her and took care of her. Although her family was poor, Master gave her the best, and would buy her candy and new clothes every Chinese New Year.

In the past ten years, she has been living in happiness, no need to study, no pressure of life, cry when she wants to cry, laugh when she wants, and coquettish when she wants to be coquettish, because the master will never punish her.

But now, Master is leaving, and there will be no one to eat with her, reason with her, and no one to give her warmth when she is being bullied.

She can only be alone......

"Master......" held Master's hand tightly, she was not afraid of being infected, if there was no Master, what was the point of her living alone?

"Master, you're just tired, aren't you? Wanxiao won't disturb your rest, you can sleep for a while, and when I send the prescription to the village chief, I'll come back and cook for you...... Make your favorite wild vegetable stew with mushrooms......"

The old master smiled reluctantly and nodded, "Go ahead, kid." ”

Li Wanxiao picked up her sleeves and wiped her tears, helped Master to go to bed to rest, and covered the quilt, "Master, then I'll go, you wait for me, I'll be back soon!"

"Hmm......" The old man closed his eyes, and in his sleepiness saw that he ran out of the door with a smile, and wanted to tell the child to run slowly and not fall, but he didn't have any strength on his body, and he opened his mouth and couldn't make a sound.

Li Wanxiao grabbed the medicine box in her hand, trotted all the way to the village chief's house, and stood in the hall of the village chief's house, unable to stop feeling frightened in her heart.

There was no one, and there was a dead silence everywhere.

Obviously, a few days ago, they were still sitting here eating and laughing, but today there was nothing, only the sound of the cold wind in their ears. She dared to go around Brother Wang's room, and before she pushed the door open, she smelled an indescribable smell of rot, raised her cold hand, and pushed the door into the house.

It was the first time she had seen a dead man, a real dead man!

"Ahh

Li Wanxiao screamed and covered her head, what the hell happened? How could this be?

I'm going to get out of here!

Ran out of Wang's house like crazy, leaving Wanxiao's mind in a mess, what the hell is going on? Didn't Master say that it was okay?

Didn't you still ask the village chief to prepare to buy medicinal herbs?

Why? Why is this happening?

Stumbling home, he couldn't care about being polite, and he broke into the master's room all of a sudden, but saw the master lying on the bed without a sound.

"Master......"

Cautiously leaning over, he stretched out a finger and put it between his master's snorts, and it was cold.

Suddenly, Li Wanxiao fell backwards to the ground, tears surging out of her eyes.

The master is dead, the village chief is dead, everyone is dead.

What's going on?

Everything was fine before, but why did it suddenly become like this?

She couldn't figure it out, and she couldn't figure it out at all.

I could only shrink in the corner of the wall, guarding the master's corpse, and sat from dark to dawn.
