Chapter 175 Panic
"Yes!" Wenjiu nodded immediately: "And faster!"
"Master, your life is running low." Xiao Jin counted on his fingers: "Just now, we checked three people in total, deducting three days of life value. Collecting blood once deducted fifty days of life value..."
"Wait," Wen Jiu's face froze, "That tiny bit of blood costs 50 days of life!!"
Xiao Jin said, "Master, how could it be just a little bit of blood? That means they have identified the epidemic and collected the virus strain!"
Wen Jiu let out a long sigh: "It's okay, it's okay. As long as the Fourth Master is well, I can make money every day in the future..."
Thinking of this, Wen Jiu suddenly frowned: "Even if 53 days are deducted, I still have 54 days, right? How can it not be enough?"
"Master, there are 53 days left," Xiao Jin said seriously, "Si Ye didn't stay overnight yesterday, so he didn't earn any Rebirth Flower seeds, and he also lost a day of his life. But matching the treatment plan requires 100 days of life... and the prevention plan also requires 100 days..."
Wen Jiu was silent for a moment: "...Where can I get 200 days of life points now?"
Xiao Jin: "Master, why don't we just forget about it?" It had said it long ago that the master's health points were not enough, so he couldn't exchange it even if he wanted to.
Wenjiu frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly turned around and stared at Xiaojin.
Xiao Jin got goose bumps all over his body from staring at it. He couldn't help but take two steps back and asked vigilantly: "Master, if you have something to say, just tell me..." Don't look at it with the same eyes as you look at the fish on the chopping board, just say whatever you want!
Wen Jiu touched his chin and said, "Do you think I can buy it on credit first?"
"Huh?" Xiao Jin was completely stunned. He had heard of people buying rice and oil on credit, but this was the first time he heard of people buying lives on credit.
It immediately swallowed its saliva and asked: "Master, do you think this is possible?"
Wenjiu's voice suddenly became gentle, "Why can't it be done? You have a way to communicate with that system, right? Go talk to it, and I'll lend you my life for 200 days.
You see, we have planted the Emperor's Heart Tree, and the Fourth Master's love has also been upgraded. Our days to come will be prosperous.
Besides, I did a pretty good job on the Fourth Master's evil mission. I figured no one else would be better than me, right?
Regarding the epidemic. If we can get through it safely, I think it will be helpful to the system. The Fourth Master remembers my kindness, so isn’t this love easy to get? "
Xiao Jin scratched his head: "That's what I said...but...I always feel like something is wrong."
Wen Jiu said, "What's wrong? My health points seem to be very low now, but Xiao Jin, will we be short of 200 days of life in the future?
Go ahead and talk to the system and ask it to lend me money for 200 days. Then I can pay it back when I make some money. At most, I can give it some interest, so it won’t lose anything!
Xiao Jin nodded blankly, it seemed that what his master said made some sense.
Then, amidst the gentle whispers and the wine, it walked into the system panel with great vigor and confidence.
When Xiao Jin came out of the panel, his pale little face stared blankly at the front without any expression.
Wen Jiu was extremely anxious: "How is it? Did you borrow it?"
Xiao Jin blinked twice: "The system agreed..."
Only then did it come to its senses. What on earth had it just done? Did it really help its master borrow life from the system...?
Then, the system really agreed...?
Wenjiu's eyes lit up: "Did you really borrow it?"
Xiao Jin nodded: "I borrowed it, but the system said there will be interest."
Wen Jiu raised an eyebrow: "How much is the interest?"
Xiao Jin said, "I'll deduct four days of life points every day as interest until the master has paid back 200 days of life..."
Warming up the wine: "...it turns out there's no such thing as a free lunch."
If the Fourth Master stays for one day, it will be equivalent to 7 days of life. If we calculate according to the original method, the Fourth Master can make up for the 200 days by staying for more than 30 days.
But 4 days of life points will be deducted every day, which means that even if the Fourth Master stays overnight, he can only earn 3 days a day, and one day will be deducted for every day she lives.
A flower of rebirth will finally bring you two days of purity.
To raise 200 days of life value, it will take more than three months, assuming there are no accidents.
If the Fourth Master accidentally ran into another woman, or if his Darkness Point increased again, he might die with a debt equal to 200 days of life on his shoulders...
"Master, have you made up your mind?" Xiao Jin asked Wenjiu while sitting on her shoulder.
Wenjiu gritted his teeth and said, "Go ahead! Match the preventive prescriptions and the treatment prescriptions!"
As long as the Fourth Master doesn't turn evil, she still has 10 years of life waiting for her. She can't be confused at this time!
Xiao Jin took the 200 days of life value that he had just borrowed from the warm wine and entered the system again.
But it came out in just a few breaths, holding two prescriptions in its hands.
[Huh, this is the prescription the system matched based on the current interface. One is for treatment, and the other is for prevention.]
Wenjiu took the two pieces of paper. The words on them were neatly printed, and the prescriptions, herbal dosages, etc. were written very clearly.
Wenjiu let out a light breath, immediately left the space, and took out a pen and paper to re-copy it twice.
"Master, if you give it directly to Emperor Star like this, will he become suspicious of your identity?" Xiao Jin couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Wen Jiu also frowned slightly at this moment: "It's difficult to prevent the Fourth Master from getting suspicious. But there is no other good way now. Let me think about it again."
After all this trouble, it’s almost time for lunch.
I thought the Fourth Master would come back for dinner, but unfortunately I didn't see him all day.
Before the recipe for warming wine could be sent out, the epidemic became more serious.
By evening, more than half of the guards in the mansion had fallen.
Even Dashao vomited after eating it, and his face turned terribly pale.
Half of the people around were sick and sent away, and everyone was suddenly in a panic.
There was not even a servant to bring hot water to the wine-warming area.
Wen Jiu knew that she couldn't delay any longer. If the Fourth Master didn't come back, she could only send someone to look for him!
He immediately called a guard over and said, "Go and call the imperial physician for me. I'm not feeling well. Remember to tell the Fourth Master!"
The guard naturally knew the seriousness of the matter. The Miss Wen in front of him was the master's beloved. Since she said she was not feeling well, the guard did not dare to delay and left immediately.
In the yamen, the atmosphere here at the Fourth Master's place became increasingly tense.
"Lord Beile, this... Lord Jiu has also contracted the plague..."
The imperial physician knelt at the head of the bed, trembling with fear as he felt the pulse of the Ninth Master. His face was pale with fear. If something happened to the precious Ninth Master in Jinyang, they would probably lose their heads.
"What did you say?" The Fourth Master's face turned pale. He was fine yesterday, busy following him around with vigor. How could he suddenly become ill?
Earlier, his ninth brother had dissuaded him, saying that it was dangerous outside.
But he didn't listen...
I'm fine, but I've implicated my ninth brother...
The Fourth Master's face turned pale and blue, and he said in a calm voice, "Let's see how Old Ten is doing."
