Escaping the Famine with 9 Deaths and 1 Life, I Have a System, My Heart Isn't Panicked

Just out of rating, it will rise, haha.

Tang Youyou opened her eyes and found herself an ancient, timid widow. Having been single for over 30 years, she inexplicably skipped marriage and chil...

Chapter 107 Li Hongyuan was driven away

Two large pots began to boil medicine. The clan leader smelled the strong medicinal aroma and always felt that this time was different from the others.

Xiong Er found Tang's mother and stuffed the prescription into her hands. "Aunt, please keep this prescription safe and don't let anyone know."

Tang's mother understood what she meant. The man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure. This prescription must not be known to others, otherwise they will suffer a bloody disaster.

He nodded carefully, and then also instructed: "The most important thing is you!"

"Don't worry, Auntie. Most people don't recognize these herbs. Just think of it as me stabilizing the condition by accident!"

The things given by the gods are naturally the best and there will definitely be no problems.

But something unexpected happened. A patient with a serious illness vomited blood and fainted after drinking the medicine.

After feeling the pulse, Xiong Er stroked his beard and said, "This medicine is not suitable. Change it!"

There is nothing we can do now; this is the only option.

As expected, after changing the medication, everyone's condition improved. The body temperature of those who had previously had a fever was gradually brought under control, and the symptoms of those who vomited and had diarrhea were significantly alleviated.

Everyone cried with joy and gave Xiong Er a thumbs up.

Only the Liu clan leader looked in the direction of Tang Youyou and her group thoughtfully.

"Chief, I...I..." Xiong Er hesitated to speak.

Clan leader Liu waved his hand and said, "Don't say anything more. I know everything. Keep the secret and don't betray your saviors. They have done a great favor to our clan, and we must protect them at all times."

Xiong Er's eyes turned red and he couldn't help but shed tears.

Clan leader Liu patted his shoulder and said, "Alright, you haven't had a good rest in a few days. Go and rest."

The wailing turned into joy. After three days of treatment, everyone gradually got better. Only eight people died, most of them were elderly.

This scene shocked Li Hongyuan. He thought he was going to die here, but unexpectedly, there was a ray of hope. It suddenly occurred to him that Nanzhou might also have the same dilemma, and he couldn't help but want to go back quickly.

Tang Youyou did not miss the flash of surprise and anxiety in his eyes. As if she saw what was in his mind, she poured a basin of cold water on him without hesitation.

"Doctor Xiong is lucky. He stumbled upon a dead mouse and developed an antidote! I wonder what the situation is like in Nanzhou now? If everyone in the city is in danger, then we, as disaster victims, will definitely be prevented from entering."

Li Hongyuan blurted out: "Maybe this medicine is the key to the city!"

"Oh? You saw it too. Eight people died. If we were unlucky and the doctor killed someone, we'd probably all die!"

This prescription can be given to others secretly, but it must never be openly let others know that it comes from their hands. Not to mention that the origin of this prescription cannot be explained at all, she will be treated as a monster.

What's more, Doctor Xiong was just a barefoot doctor with mediocre medical skills, and his medical skills could not withstand verification. Naturally, the credit would not fall on him. He might even be framed and lose his head.

It's not that she is too cautious, but in this society without human rights, with clear class divisions, it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to make a name for themselves.

She was not foolish enough to think that she would gain any benefits by giving away the prescription. She understood the principle of being guilty of possessing a treasure.

Li Hongyuan was speechless for a moment, but still tried to persuade him: "Can you just watch the victims die tragically?"

Tang Youyou's eyes widened, "You still want to morally blackmail me? Sorry, I have no morals, and I'm blind!"

He's not blind, but he saved a fool. He's an educated man after all, so how could he be so ignorant? He's really a flower in a greenhouse.

Li Hongyuan was speechless and his eyes fell on Xiong Er's face.

The other person just spread his hands and said, "I'm so sorry, I'm just a quack doctor. I didn't even write down the prescription. What should I do?"

He pretended to sigh and look unhappy, as if regretting that he could not help.

But my thoughts were racing in my mind: I remembered my grandfather once said that we must always remember to hide our light and not show our head, otherwise we will bring disaster upon ourselves.

The clan leader repeatedly reminded him of this, also for his own life. At this moment, he would rather play dumb than return to danger. At stake were over 200 lives!

Li Hongyuan looked at this group of people for the first time, completely baffled. "What are you afraid of? Tell my father, he will definitely fight for your interests. Then the settlement problem will be solved."

For the first time, Tang Youyou felt like she had saved a disaster. Her tone was cold and gloomy: "Don't you understand what people are saying? How capable can a barefoot doctor be? Can't you see that eight people died? You have your father to protect you, but what about us? We are worthless, who will protect us? "

Everyone was startled by her voice. Even though Tang Youyou was extremely strong, she had never spoken so harshly before. Everyone realized the seriousness of the matter for the first time and lowered their heads.

Li Hongyuan blushed and looked at her angrily, "When the country is in trouble, every citizen has a responsibility. You are just a bunch of cowards!"

Tang Youyou's hands unconsciously grabbed the tree, her eyes full of murderous intent, which scared Tang's mother.

She quickly grabbed her daughter's hand and said, "Daughter, don't be angry!"

But she couldn't kill someone in front of so many people. The Liu family had never seen their daughter kill anyone, and she didn't dare to gamble with human nature.

Tang Youyou closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Go away, just pretend I never saved you. If you dare to tell me what happened today, don't blame me for being rude."

Li Hongyuan opened and closed his mouth, but in the end he didn't say what was in his heart and left in depression.

Chief Liu sighed, "Ah... young people are full of vigor. I hope he can understand our difficulties."

He looked at the tribesmen behind him and said, "You all have to keep this matter to yourself, otherwise we will be killed."

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. No one thought the patriarch was exaggerating; after all, he was the most respected person here. Although they didn't understand why, they remembered the patriarch's words deeply and dared not disobey.

Li Hongyuan on this side was filled with anger and indignation. He rushed forward without realizing the danger.

The two men hiding behind the big tree behind him were talking in a low voice.

"Why do we see him here? Isn't he in the mines?"

"Could it be that I'm seeing things? How could he have that brain to escape?"

"I was too nervous just now and didn't see clearly. Come on, let's follow!"

Two men followed him stealthily, but he didn't notice and instead complained as he walked.

"Dongchen is currently facing internal and external troubles. Ultimately, the people are too timid. But this is a matter of serving the country, so why are they unwilling to do so? Don't they understand the principle that the country is in the family? But the Liu clan leader speaks in an elegant manner, as if he has read books."

He suddenly stopped, startling the two people behind him, and they quickly hid behind a tree.

Li Hongyuan looked behind him and realized that there was no one behind him. He was already far away from the main group. He didn't even have a water bag on him, let alone dry food.

Listening to the cicadas' calls and the occasional bird calls, he felt a little panicked and hurriedly picked up a thick branch to use as a weapon.

At the same time, I felt extremely regretful: I am not a human being. Maybe they are just lucky. It is understandable that ordinary people are timid, and they are so simple. They always care about me first these days. I am the ungrateful one.
