Chapter 111 They are eating meat
Lianzhou is really difficult to travel to. The two towns seem close, but it turns out to be a long journey.
When they passed the last town, they saw Liansheng City right in front of them, but they did not head in that direction.
Chen Yilan ran to Jiang Yima and asked, "Master Jiang, why don't you go to Liansheng? My son is there!"
"Mrs. Mo, Mo Beiyuan is a man of great ambition, unlike us! He has received orders from above to stay in Liansheng, and I am only responsible for taking you to Yanzhou."
Jiang Yi was in a good mood, so he explained.
"Since he has issued an order, does the emperor need him to fight? Has his throne of Yonglin been restored? Do we no longer need to be exiled?" Second uncle Mo Zhengqi also came up and asked anxiously.
"Then I haven't received such an order. The current order is just to send you to Yanzhou." Jiang Yi felt annoyed when he saw Mo Zhengqi.
"We still have to go to Yanzhou!" Mo Hongyi sighed when he heard it.
"After this battle, Mo Beiyuan will undoubtedly be second to none, and the throne is a foregone conclusion. If you attempt to return at the border, you will likely not live to enjoy the blessings of this palace. The correct path is to first go to Yanzhou to avoid disaster, and then wait for him to come and fetch you after his victory."
Let’s start drawing the Feng Aoqing Cake first. It will be troublesome if so many people are not of the same mind.
For so many people, only the throne and happiness can unite them.
After hearing Feng Aoqing's words, everyone immediately gave up the idea of returning to Beijing.
No one longed for Lian Shengcheng's bed and food anymore, and walked with their heads down.
Jiang Yi even extended his walking time, setting off before dawn and stopping to rest only when it was almost dark.
Fortunately, there are often small villages of mountain people or individual hunters in the mountains near these towns, so they are not completely uninhabited.
Feng Aoqing would buy some mountain products whenever she saw them. As long as they were not their own rations, she would buy them so that they would have enough food on the road without having to go hunting.
Now, apart from the Mo family, there are only a dozen strong prisoners left, and the team is getting smaller and smaller.
Once the people arranged by Han Lang arrive, we won’t have to worry about food. With their abilities, they can probably take over the hunters’ jobs.
For some reason, she was not worried at all that Han Lang would lie to her about sending someone.
As they were walking, Wei Ze came over and reported that there was a village ahead with about a dozen households, and asked Jiang Yi if he wanted to go in.
Seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Yi asked Wei Ze to ask the villagers if they would let him in.
There is no need for a house, as long as they can stay in the yard and have a fire.
After entering Lianzhou, because it is a mountainous area, the temperature increases day and night, and it gets colder every day at night.
After a while, Wei Ze came back and said that the villagers agreed to let them enter the village.
Before he left, Feng Aoqing had already given him some silver, telling him to give the villagers some even if they didn't want it, as life in the mountains was not easy.
Everyone entered the village.
Feng Aoqing sniffed, nudged Mo Nanzhou and said, "Put on your mask."
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?" Mo Nanzhou asked curiously.
"It smells a bit smelly, as if the air is not very clean. It's okay for us, but we're afraid you might be allergic." Feng Aoqing replied.
"Oh, okay." Mo Nanzhou believed her words and hurriedly put on the cloth mask given by Feng Aoqing.
Feng Aoqing also put masks on the two babies.
This one is made of cloth, so it’s easier to explain.
She held Jiang Yi and said, "Master Jiang, we won't go into the village. The stone terrace in front of the village is nice. Let's rest here."
Jiang Yi took a look and saw that there was indeed a big tree on the right side of the village entrance. Under the tree, there was a large stone slab, probably for drying things, which was clean and flat.
The village chief received the silver and money, and seeing that they did not enter the village, he was very polite, so he hurried over to say hello.
"Sir, our village is poor and doesn't have much good stuff. I'll give you some homemade pickles to go with the porridge!" said the village chief with a smile.
"It smells good! They have meat to eat!" Mo Hongtao stood up and sniffed hard, as if he was being pulled away by the smell of meat.
It's mealtime, so it's normal to smell the aroma of food. Maybe someone has just hunted a big game, and the skin and meat can be sold. Some of the internal organs that are easy to store will also be dried and sold, but those internal organs that no one wants will be cooked and eaten.
So it is not surprising to smell the smell of meat in the homes of hunters in the mountain village.
"Mo Hongtao!" Feng Aoqing roared.
"Excuse me, everyone. It's not that we don't want to, but those chickens died of illness, so it's not easy to give them to you. But, if you don't mind... ahem..."
"Death from illness? Those?"
Everyone else was thinking about winning the game, but Feng Aoqing was the only one who grasped the key point.
She immediately put on a mask, stepped forward, and asked, "Village Chief, how long has it been going on?"
"It's been about ten days now. A few days ago, all the chickens died! We couldn't dry them out quickly, so we had to cook the ones that were about to go bad."
"I see you're a little sick. Is there anyone else sick in the village? I'm a healer."
"Yes, my wife is sick, and several children in the village are also sick. I think it's because of the constant rain that they caught a cold."
"I understand. Please go into the village and tell everyone to stay home and not move around. Don't eat chickens anymore. You might have contracted the disease."
The village chief was shocked.
Feng Aoqing then said to Mo Nanzhou, "Master Jiang! Take everyone back to the outside of the official road, find a new place to set up camp, boil some water, have everyone bathe, wash their hair, and change clothes. Pile up all the old clothes and burn them, leaving nothing behind."
"let's go!"
"We can't leave. I need to treat them. Wei Ze and I were too close just now. I'm afraid there might be something wrong. Besides, we don't know if you've caught the virus. Stay in the camp for three days and take the medicine I give you. Only when no one gets sick can we continue."
Jiang Yi understood that if he fell ill while walking on the road, he would be dead. Here, as long as Feng Aoqing was with him, he at least had a chance to survive.
"Go quickly! I'll give you what you need in a while, Brother Yu. You take the two brothers and clean up first, then come to the village entrance to carry the things."
"clear!"
Everyone hurriedly retreated back to the official road and then found a flat area in the woods to set up camp.
Wei Ze stood there without moving.
"My master said that I can't leave you. I'm not afraid of getting sick." Wei Ze explained.
"Okay, you have been to the village before, and you are most likely infected with the disease. I would like to ask for your help before you become ill." Feng Aoqing said with a smile.
"yes."
Wei Ze and the uninfected laborers in the village set up tree stumps at the entrance of the village. They hung white cloths on the stumps that Feng Aoqing got from somewhere, and arranged villagers to guard several entrances and exits of the village to prevent people from going out.
Feng Aoqing stood outside the white cloth and began to arrange the food for the next three days, clean clothes, disinfected utensils, and preventive medicines, and wrote down the instructions for use one by one.
Yu Tiannan came over and saw that Feng Aoqing had already returned behind the curtain.
He didn't know where these things came from, he only heard Feng Aoqing say: "Tell Xingbao and Yuebao that mother is treating people, tell them not to be afraid."
"Madam, please take care of yourself! If you have any problems, just tell me. I'm not afraid of death!" Yu Tiannan's eyes were red.
"Not really. Please pay attention to everyone. If you feel any discomfort, please come to this curtain."
"clear."
