Chapter 302: This item is offered to the family god. I am happy to do so.
Xiong Jiushan's face darkened. He stood up and said in a deep voice, "If you don't want to help, just say so. There's no need to lie to me and talk nonsense. My duty is to escort you all to Liaozhou and hand you over. Why are you beating around the bush? Thank you, Yuchuan! You can communicate with gods, but don't communicate with evil spirits!"
Xie Yuchuan was happy. He stretched out one of his long legs and warmed himself by the fire.
Looking up at Xiong Jiushan's uneasy expression, he narrowed his black eyes and smiled again, "Sir, how about you join me in suppressing the bandits? There are many people there, and the journey outside the Great Wall is difficult and dangerous. Save some money and set off safely. The sooner we reach Liaozhou, the sooner you can be safe. The journey is long, and if we delay for too long, there's no telling what might happen."
Xiong Jiushan was about to scold him, but Xie Yuchuan ignored him and said in a cold voice, "With only the officers and soldiers under your command, I'm afraid they can't protect the lives of our Xie family on the road."
Xie Yuchuan raised his eyes. "How will you explain yourself then? After killing someone with a borrowed knife, you won't take it away. You'll just throw it into the pit with them."
Xiong Jiushan: "What nonsense!"
Xie Yuchuan shook his head, then stood up and faced Xiong Jiushan at eye level.
Xie Yuchuan took out a small packet of antipyretic medicine from his waist and placed it on the stool beside the charcoal fire.
Before leaving, he turned around, squinted his eyes, looked at Xiong Jiushan and said, "I have the medicine. If Sir Xiong really needs it, you can send someone to the Xie family to get it. As for how much you are willing to pay, it is entirely up to you."
He turned around and was about to leave when he suddenly stopped and turned back to say, "This medicine is very effective. One pill is enough. If the fever persists, you can use it again after one or two hours. Do not use it continuously. My lord, I will take my leave."
Xie Yuchuan left a packet of trial medicine for Xiong Jiushan and went back.
Xiong Jiushan stood there, watching his back as he returned to the thatched hut.
After standing there for an unknown amount of time, his subordinate Cheng Ye came running over to look for him. Seeing him standing next to the tent door, he was not afraid of the cold and hurriedly took off his thick clothes to put on Xiong Jiushan.
"Sir, there are more and more fugitives suffering from fever and fright. What should we do? I'd better go to Yucheng and ask the doctor to come over." Cheng Ye said with his hands clenched.
While shivering, he inadvertently saw a paper bag next to the charcoal fire.
He bent down to pick it up and held it in front of Xiong Jiushan: "Sir, what is this?"
"It's medicine for reducing fever." Xiong Jiushan came back to his senses and turned to see Cheng Ye opening the medicine package. After thinking for a moment, he instructed: "Take it to the person with a high fever and try it."
Cheng Ye was surprised and asked, "Just this little pill?"
Xiong Jiushan frowned: "Why don't you go quickly?"
Cheng Ye immediately wrapped up the medicine and put it in his pocket, "Yes, I'll go right away!"
Before leaving, he couldn't help but glance at the place where the Xie family lived, and thought, could it be that this medicine was given by the Xie family?
On the way, they met a frustrated yamen runner and asked him about it. Sure enough, the Xie family had medicine, and the soldiers knew it.
Cheng Ye was a little confused about Xiong Jiushan's behavior.
Since you know that the Xie family has medicine at this time, what are you worried about, sir?
Wouldn't it be better to just ask the Xie family to hand over all the medicine?
Do I need to go and talk to Xie Yuchuan specifically?
No matter how powerful a person is, he is now a fugitive.
Cheng Ye felt that Xiong Jiushan was a little indecisive in dealing with the Xie family's matter.
However, now is not the time to discuss these things with Shangguan. The more important thing is to go back and select someone to test the medicine on.
Cheng Ye was very efficient and quickly selected several people who had high fever and were talking nonsense. The disease came like a mountain, and the fugitives were already weak, so once they got sick, the disease progressed very quickly.
"This is weird! How come those snakes are not only venomous but can also give you colds?"
When people are upset, they say all kinds of nonsense.
Xiong Jiushan stood there, his head buzzing, thinking over and over again what Xie Yuchuan had said before.
This person...
Not easy to deal with.
Xiong Jiushan had a headache. Looking at Xie Yuchuan's expression, he knew that it was not entirely his intention to negotiate with him by using medicine, but Xie Yuchuan's attitude was very clear.
The Xie family can save people.
But I won't save people blindly.
What exactly does Xie Yuchuan want to do?
Couldn't he just be an ordinary exile and not be sent to Laozhou in such fear?
If he doesn't do something, naturally someone else will do it.
He can't control others, but he himself...
Xiong Jiushan slapped his head hard and said, "Why are you following Xie Yuchuan's ideas?"
He suddenly felt annoyed, shook his head, and ran straight to the sick convict and the official.
Inside the thatched hut, a round lens was finally taken down after Xiong Jiushan left.
"Master, Mr. Xiong's face looks very dark."
Zhou Chuan, who was holding a telescope in the thatched hut, observing Xiong Jiushan's condition, walked over to Xie Yuchuan, squatted down and said.
Xie Yuchuan was working with Zhang Dayi and Xie Wenjie to sort out the remaining medicines that the Xie family had on hand.
"Sixth brother, I counted the fever-reducing medicines. If we take them all out to save people, they should be enough for a day." As he spoke, he put together the fever-reducing medicines he had sorted out, as well as the fever-reducing and cold-treating medicines that Xie Yuchuan had told him about before.
"Prepare these first. Keep the ones for your own people first, especially the female relatives. After you sort them out, send them over. Don't keep them with us." Xie Yuchuan instructed.
"good."
"Also, later on, Wenjie, you, Chang'an, and Xie Bo, don't stay here. Go and guard the women."
Xie Wenjie nodded.
He never asked too many questions about what his sixth brother told him to do.
The medicines were not just for reducing fever and treating colds. Xie Yuchuan took out the precautions that Jiashen had written before and read them again. He also asked Xie Wenjie and others to prepare some diarrhea and first aid medicines separately.
As for other things, Xie Yuchuan looked at the Xie family's "supplies" in deep thought.
"Sixth brother, why don't you send the other things to your great aunt?"
Xie Yuchuan said: "Wait, let me think about it."
"good."
"Once these things from the Xie family are taken out in large quantities, the Xie family will no longer be as peaceful as before." Zhang Dayi said from the side.
This is exactly what Xie Yuchuan thought.
"It's more dangerous to leave the things with grandma."
Zhang Dayi observed his expression and asked, "I wonder what the general is thinking?"
Xie Yuchuan looked up and said, "I was wondering if I could ask the household gods to help hide these things."
Zhang Dayi's eyes lit up: "This method is also a good idea."
"only……"
Xie Yuchuan was a little hesitant.
"General, are you worried that the household gods will be displeased?"
Xie Yuchuan couldn't say.
He concentrated his mind and communicated with the gods, but there was no response from the household gods.
At this time, perhaps the household god was still resting, so he just asked a few simple questions and said no more.
Zhang Dayi was thinking silently.
After a while.
He clapped his hands and said, "General, why don't you find a few more things to offer together?"
Xie Yuchuan was puzzled: "What do you mean, sir?"
Zhang Dayi smiled and said, "If I remember correctly, the general once offered sacrifices to the family god without disturbing the god. This time, use this!"
This time, Lord Hanlin took out his most treasured piece of jade.
"This jade is of the finest quality, and is an elegant offering to the gods. If the household gods respond, the general may ask a few more questions."
"Sir, you can't do that."
"I am deeply protected by the Xie family's gods, so how can I not do it? I say it's okay, so it's okay!"
When the two were arguing.
The voice of the family god rang in Xie Yuchuan's ears.
"Xie Yuchuan? What are you and Master Zhang arguing about?"
