Chapter 062: He still dares to despise himself?
There were also faint sounds of discussion coming from outside the cave.
"How old is that little kid? He's still breastfeeding. Can he really be cured?"
"It's been so long, why is there still no movement?"
"Can he survive?"
"Stop arguing." Chen Dongqing said in a deep voice. It was obvious that he still had great authority in everyone's heart. After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
"She's General Gu's granddaughter. The general has agreed to her coming, so she'll definitely be able to do it. Just don't disturb Mumu from treating the child's injuries."
Li Mumu twisted her aching neck and planned to come out to wash her hands. She could have washed them in the space, but she was a detail-obsessed person and was afraid that others would suspect that she could have clean hands after healing her wounds.
"It's out, it's out!" Everyone gathered around.
"Mumu, how is the child?" Chen Dongqing asked worriedly.
They were willing to save even a strange child, so they really weren't bad people.
Li Mumu nodded. "The arrow has been pulled out, and he's feeling better now. But he needs to recuperate for a while, and..."
"Anything else?" Chen Dongqing asked.
"And he's been poisoned, and has some symptoms of the plague?"
"Plague?" Chen Dongqing reacted immediately. "Are you saying one of us has the plague?"
"It's not just some people, it should be everyone. It's just that some people's symptoms haven't appeared yet."
"Plague? Then there's still no way to survive?"
"Don't panic, listen to Mumu." Chen Dongqing once again stopped everyone from talking.
Li Mumu smiled at him and said, "Although it's a plague, it's not incurable. We have medicine here, and I've also collected some that are just right for the disease. Uncle, come with me to get it back. After boiling it, I have to give it to everyone. Remember, everyone must drink it."
"Of course, of course." Chen Dongqing and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, no one doubted Li Mumu's ability.
"Then...where is the child?" asked Dongqing's wife.
Li Mumu thought about the fact that she had just lost her daughter, so she couldn't bear to see the young man lose his life. "His poison... is a bit difficult to treat."
"If you follow us, won't you still die?" Dongqing's wife was almost crying.
Chen Dongqing sighed, "Stop talking."
"Miss, please, give him a chance to live. If he follows us, he is doomed to die. But if he follows you, he may have a chance to live." Dongqing's wife suddenly knelt down.
"What are you doing? Get up quickly. Mumu and the others... are not convenient either." Chen Dongqing pulled his wife up with embarrassment, but the woman was kneeling on the ground. She was stubborn after losing her child and refused to get up no matter what.
"Aunt, please stand up and talk first."
"Miss, I know this is very difficult for you, but that is a life. My daughter Niuniu is not blessed. If she had met you yesterday, she might have been saved. She died in my arms. I can't bear to see a child die in front of me again."
Li Mumu's eyes also turned red. She had just diagnosed that the boy's poison was very complicated and could not be cured by ordinary doctors. Moreover, if he followed them, even if his injuries healed, it would not be long before the poison took effect.
After thinking about it, she decided to wait until the boy woke up.
"Aunt, I know you mean well, but we have to wait until my brother wakes up before we ask him."
"Yes, get up quickly and stop making things difficult for Mumu." Chen Dongqing looked at Li Mumu apologetically, and after Dongqing's wife calmed down, she also knew that her behavior just now was inappropriate.
An hour later the boy woke up. Li Mumu did not leave, but Chen Dongqing had sent someone to deliver a letter and brought back some food.
The man who had been hungry for a long time cooked some porridge to eat, and medicine was still boiling in another pot.
Those people first served Li Mumu a bowl of rice with almost no water. Li Mumu did not eat it, saying that he had already eaten, but no one touched the bowl of dry porridge.
Li Mumu raised her hand and touched the forehead of the boy lying on the ground. It was still a little hot. She was busy with the operation and had no time to take a closer look. She only knew that he was a good-looking boy.
Now that she had taken a closer look, she realized that using only the word "good-looking" to describe him was too superficial. That long nose was just a nose, and the eyes were just eyes. Li Mumu thought of a lot of fancy words, but in the end, the word "good-looking" was the most economical and practical.
It was at this moment that Xie Xun opened his eyes and saw a pair of chubby little hands moving away from his face. His vision went from blurry to clear, and he saw a tender little face, chubby and very cute, with a pair of big black eyes looking at him.
"You finally woke up." Li Mumu breathed a sigh of relief. She thought her operation was not done well.
Xie Xun listened to her kind voice and her childish, smiling face, feeling a little dazed. "Where am I? Did you save me?"
Li Mumu nodded, then shook her head, which made Xie Xun look confused. That's right, how old is this little girl? How could she save herself?
But he didn't expect that Li Mumu's words would surprise him.
"I treated your injury, but someone else found you."
"Can you cure me?" Xie Xun's voice was hoarse, but full of disbelief.
Li Mumu tutted, "Who are you looking down on?"
"That's not what I meant. I just... it was unexpected."
Li Mumu felt that there was no need to argue with a little brat, while Xie Xun felt that there was no need to argue with the little girl.
The anesthetic wore off, and Xie Xun's wound was aching slightly, coupled with the high fever, his mind was not working very fast. He remembered that after he was shot by the arrow, he rode his horse and ran all the way, and those people were chasing him relentlessly, and then... he fell off the cliff, as if he fell into the water. His whole body was cold, and his consciousness gradually faded.
"Now that you're awake, I have a question for you."
"You say." Xie Xun narrowed his eyes and gathered his strength.
"You were found by Uncle Dongqing and his men, but they were disaster victims with no place to live, and they couldn't treat your injuries or poison."
"You knew I was poisoned?" Xie Xun was surprised and surprised.
Li Mumu snorted coldly, "Now you believe it, it's me who saved you, right?"
Xie Xun smiled and nodded, looking at the pouting little girl, he found her even cuter.
"It's my fault that I didn't recognize the real thing."
"No need to flatter me. And as for me, my family will be exiled to the North. You won't have a good life with us, but I can help you cure the poison."
Exile to the North?
Aren’t those the Gu and Li families?
The Gu family does not have such a young child. They only have one granddaughter who has already married and was not affected this time.
So, she is the daughter of that guy Li Yuan?
Li Mumu saw a hint of disgust in his eyes. This kid didn't even dislike that he was a burden, but he disliked that he was a prisoner.
"Then you should follow Uncle Dongqing and the others."
Suddenly, the boy thought of something, "No, I'll follow you."
