Zhu Luo hid the food. He planned to wait and see here for the next two days. If the porridge was still plain, he would go to their village with Wu Zhuang. Then, he could survive for a while and return to the south after the storm passed.

In Cangzhou, after feeding the refugees medicine for three or four days, Yan Zhi took people out to see a doctor. Ophiopogon japonicus sprinkled lime around from time to time. Severe basic infectious diseases could not be cured, so they only saw patients with mild symptoms.

In Yuguan County, the number of refugees increased in just one day. There were even many people coughing in the crowd that day. Ji Shikang stood at the city gate and looked outside. There were probably four or five hundred people in this huge crowd, which was less than one-sixth of Cangzhou. It was conceivable how many refugees Cangzhou had blocked for them.

Thinking of Lord Zhao's letter saying that Cangzhou's government grain was running low and needed support, he could only bear the pain and take 600 kilograms of grain from them and have the soldiers transport it. Their harvest this year was not very good, so the government grain was not much, and they also had to reserve grain for the border areas, so Ji Shikang could only do his best to transport the 600 kilograms of grain.

"Sir, the epidemic among the refugees outside the city seems to have worsened." Ji Shikang frowned and asked, "How could this be?"

"I heard that a few days ago, a sick refugee defecated on the path above, and the people below drank unclean water, which caused the illness. It took a doctor to find the cause."

After hearing this, Ji Shikang hurriedly said, "How foolish! How foolish! Go down and take care of all the food and other things related to their illness. Don't make any more mistakes."

"Yes!" Ji Shikang thought of what Tong Wen Yao said. If his government office did not have so much food, then she would take over the refugees. He would not be allowed to interfere with the refugees in the future. Thinking of this, his eyes darkened. What was she going to do by recruiting so many people?

As more and more people came in the past few days, there were small quarrels outside every now and then, and a big quarrel every two days. Ji Shikang was almost suffocated. Moreover, the epidemic infected so many people and killed them every day, and the suburbs were filled with billowing black smoke all day long.

Thinking they still needed to be fed with herbal medicine for three days, he sent a doctor out to treat them. Tong Wenyao told him that he had to alleviate the symptoms first before he could treat them.

At this time, Wu Zhuang could no longer wait. It was cold at night. Even with the shelter of a shed and the warmth of a fire, he still felt cold. He even thought of going back to the village to sleep on a kang.

Zhu Luo nudged him and said, "Brother Zhuang, why is your face so red?" Wu Zhuang felt a little dizzy and shook his head subconsciously, saying, "It's too cold here. I want to go home and sleep on the kang."

After this was said, Zhu Luo and Ma He looked at each other and said, "Brother Zhuang, we can't enter the city, let alone go to your village."

Wu Zhuangyaoyao nodded and said, "No, I know there is a small path that can lead to the other side, but it's a little dangerous."

Zhu Luo said, "Brother Zhuang, just take us upstairs! It's a bit cold for us to stay here. Let's go to your house. You can also take us to see what the kang you mentioned is like and whether it will be warm to sleep on it."

Wu Zhuang hummed and said, "Find someone to carry me, and you all come with me to my house to sleep!" Wu Zhuang's legs were a little weak, so he said earlier that he wanted to go home. Otherwise, he couldn't walk to the village entrance by himself. He could only walk back by pulling them along. I don't know if it was because he hadn't eaten for too long, but his legs were weak and a little powerless at this time.

This time they were very careful when they left. Most of them went into the woods in groups of two or three, so there was no need to worry about being followed. Zhu Luo was also a little worried that they were following him, so he deliberately circled the woods a few times before following Wu Zhuang towards Changjiang Village.

The road that Wu Zhuang took them on was quite steep, with gravel falling from time to time. After walking for more than an hour, they finally started to walk towards the small road. This was someone else's field, close to the village, and the noise was a bit loud, causing the dogs in the village to bark collectively. Wu Zhuang was carried on someone's back, and he showed them the way until they reached the official road, where the road became easier to walk on.

The weather was a little dark, and they had to rely on the faint moonlight to walk. When they arrived at Changjiang Village, they found that the village entrance had been cordoned off and there were people patrolling on the wall.

He was a little stunned, and said blankly, "How...how could this be?" Wu Zhuang wanted to step forward to question him, but was quickly pulled back by Zhu Luo, who roared, "Asshole, are you trying to alert the enemy? This matter needs to be considered carefully."

Now they had no greenhouse to live in, and they wanted to make a fire but were afraid of being discovered, so they could only huddle together to keep warm. A scene flashed through Ma He's mind, that was, the first village they entered seemed to have no locked gate, and they could still enter the village.

"Boss Luo, why don't we go to the village at the beginning? We can occupy their house and sleep on a kang, which is better than freezing here."

As soon as this was said, many brothers immediately agreed and advised: "Boss, go ahead! This way you can still live in the village." Zhu Luo looked at the brothers' faces, nodded and said: "Then go and occupy their houses. Anyway, we have robbed and occupied a lot along the way."

The brothers behind him followed Zhu Luo and walked towards the village at the beginning. The village chief was none other than the village chief of Ma'an Village. He was the one who had looked down upon the neighboring villages when they saw them building gates. But now, they were in trouble.

Zhu Luo looked at the village and said, "Go and rob the best house. Kill anyone who resists."

"Good, good, good!" Wu Zhuang, though a little frightened, was more excited to have found a powerful partner. If they led him into Changjiang Village, capturing the Xiaoxiao Tong family would be no problem. Watching Ma He drag the men from the room and chop them down, the hot blood splattering on his face, he felt a surge of excitement he hadn't felt in a long time. Seeing a wooden stick nearby, he grabbed one and joined in the fight.

The loud roaring sound attracted many people in the village to look through the house. They did not know what was going on. When they opened the door and saw such a bloody scene, they quickly closed the door and their legs and feet trembled.

Ma He also saw it and asked, "Boss, do you need it?" He made a gesture at his neck. Zhu Luo frowned and said, "The blood has splattered on the wall. It will stink when I sleep at night. You killed people and didn't even avoid it. How can I sleep tonight?"

Ma He smiled awkwardly and said, "Boss, you sleep inside, and the brothers sleep outside."

The kang was still warm. After Zhu Luo lay down, he said, "Why are you still standing there? Come up and sleep with me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma He hurriedly took off his shoes and crawled onto the bed, grinning and saying, "Boss, I knew you were the best boss for us."
