Chapter 114 Aren’t you afraid that I will infect you?】
Xiao Yunshuo suddenly grabbed her wrist and said, "If you're worried about the Queen and the three little guys, don't worry. Yuan Xu and I were at the same inn. As soon as those assassins started, we subdued them. Yuan Xu is watching them now. Otherwise, why do you think I would come to you?"
After hearing his words, Shen Fenghe finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If that's the case, then that's fine."
As he spoke, he helped Xiao Yunshuo into the woodshed, and went to Madam Li's kitchen to find a small clay pot. He took out herbs such as Gelsemium elegans and Aconitum from the space, and slowly boiled the medicine liquid while making a fire.
While enduring, he suddenly remembered something and couldn't help asking: "Aren't you afraid that I have been infected with the typhoid plague and that I will infect you?"
Xiao Yunshuo smiled and said, "I believe in your medical skills. Even if I don't, what's the harm in getting infected? If you die, there will be no one who can cure the Forget Worry Gu in me, right?"
Chen Fenghe thought about it, couldn't help but smile, and said: "Even if I die, there will naturally be other miracle doctors who can detoxify. You are too arbitrary..."
Xiao Yunshuo just looked at her with a smile and refused to speak.
Chen Fenghe felt a little embarrassed for some reason. Coincidentally, the medicine was ready, so she poured it out for him to drink.
After drinking the medicine, Xiao Yunshuo's face turned pale again, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
Chen Fenghe noticed his slightly trembling body and tightly clenched fists, and knew that he must be going through a very painful process at this moment, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Xiao Yunshuo suddenly raised his head, forced a smile at her, and said, "I'm fine. Wait outside for a moment, I'll be out soon."
Chen Fenghe was stunned for a moment, then she understood that he might not want to show his weak side in front of her, or he was afraid that she would worry, so he sent her away.
She nodded and went out.
After about half an hour, Xiao Yunshuo came out and said, "I'll take care of this killer. You go back to sleep. If anyone asks you anything, just say you were soundly asleep and didn't hear anything."
Chen Fenghe didn't say much, just nodded and said, "I know."
As he spoke, Xiao Yunshuo suddenly jumped up and floated onto the roof. Then he carried the killer on his back and quickly passed over the roof ridges one by one, and finally disappeared in the distance.
Chen Fenghe: “…”
As a modern person, it seems that it will take some time for her to accept this phenomenon that violates Newton's laws.
Chen Fenghe stayed at Madam Li's house for a few days, but no killers appeared afterwards. Maybe the masterminds behind the scenes were still waiting for them to die of the plague?
After these few days, Madam Li and Gou'er were completely recovered.
The people in the town followed Chen Fenghe's instructions, wearing activated carbon masks and disinfecting with strong liquor every day. In addition, they drank some pickled mustard juice containing penicillin every day. In the past few days, there was not a single person in the town who showed symptoms of typhoid fever.
Only then did everyone become convinced of Shen Fenghe's medical skills.
The village head and Chen Wu went outside the town to negotiate with the officers and soldiers who surrounded the town.
The leading officer said with a cold face while coughing:
"Village Head, Mr. Chen, I'm so sorry. Someone reported that someone in your town had typhoid fever, so I followed the orders of the Qizhou City prefect to surround this place. Just because you say you can cure it, does that mean it's cured? Even the current imperial physician is helpless against typhoid fever. How can I let you go just because of your one-sided words? If I let you go and the typhoid fever spreads, I'll be beheaded! I hope the Village Head and Mr. Chen won't make things difficult for us!"
The village headman was also a little anxious after hearing this: "Sir, please be kind! Our town has been busy with the comings and goings, and we don't have much food in stock to begin with. We've already used up most of it in the past few days. If we are surrounded again, people will starve to death!"
Chen Wu also realized that the man was deliberately making things difficult for him, and said in a deep voice: "Sir, we are ordered to escort the imperial criminal to the place of exile. If we miss the trip, can you afford it? We are clearly not infected..."
The soldier rudely interrupted him, sneering, "You're just following orders, even if you starve to death. With this pandemic looming, who would dare let you go? You'd better give up on this idea!"
"You!" Chen Wu was about to argue, but suddenly, Shen Yichuan ran over and whispered something in Chen Wu's ear.
Chen Wu was surprised after hearing this, but he still returned with doubts.
When he saw Chen Fenghe, Chen Wu hurriedly asked, "Madam Shen, why did you ask us to come back and stop arguing with him? Do you have any other ideas?"
Chen Fenghe said, "Uncle Lizheng, please take your men to check how much rations are left in the town. It should be enough to last for a few days. It would be best if they can be distributed reasonably, enough for everyone in the town to last for five days. After three days at the shortest, and five days at the longest, I guarantee that these officers and soldiers will voluntarily let us out!"
The village head and Chen Wu were stunned for a moment, still not quite understanding: "This...what's the logic behind this?"
"Really? I heard that if the officers suspected that someone in the village was infected with the plague, the entire village might be besieged and killed, or even killed. They clearly want to trap and kill everyone in the town, so why would they let us out?"
Chen Fenghe cast a cold glance at the arrogant officer and asked with a smile, "Uncle Lizheng, Mr. Chen, did you notice anything unusual about those officers and soldiers just now?"
The village head and Chen Wu were both stunned for a moment, then shook their heads blankly: "It seems nothing, except that the soldier just coughed..."
At this point, Chen Wu's face suddenly revealed an expression of sudden enlightenment: "Could it be...?"
