Chapter 84 I will protect her with my life
The news that someone had contracted the plague quickly spread throughout the ship.
Xiangying had a hunch that the number of people infected with the plague would increase.
Until the situation is under control, the sick prisoners are likely to become violent and hurt others.
So she thought about it and asked Scarface to inform Taoxue and Qi Fengyi to be careful when bringing the children with them.
The seventh princess found Xiangying and handed her a piece of paper.
"Big sister, this is the list of all the people in the exile team that I made along the way."
At that time, Xiangying was talking to Jie Chen, asking him to arrange all his subordinates to come over.
Hearing this, she looked back and saw the neat and beautiful handwriting on the paper. There were ten names in a row, with soldiers on the left and prisoners' names on the right, all neatly listed.
Xiangying couldn't help but be surprised: "You actually remember all these people's names?"
The seventh princess smiled embarrassedly.
"I had nothing to do during my exile, so I just paid attention to everything. I heard that Big Sister wanted to integrate the team to fight the spread of the epidemic, so I thought that maybe this list could help."
Xiangying showed it to Jie Chen, who glanced at it, pursed his lips and nodded: "Almost."
Xiangying praised: "Thank you for your hard work, Seventh Sister. This thing is just what we need."
Hearing this, the Seventh Princess was obviously very happy.
"I'm glad I could help my elder sister. I'll go back now." After she said goodbye, Xiangying looked at the list written by the Seventh Princess again.
Not only are the personnel listed, but they are also strictly classified.
The row of soldiers on the left, from top to bottom, is ranked according to their titles. For example, Xie Chen is the military supervisor, so he and two other military supervisors are ranked in the front.
Finally, there are some firemen.
The prisoners on the right are arranged in order of age from top to bottom.
This helped Xiangying a lot. If someone was infected later, she could make a note on this list.
You can also find the other party’s queue at the first time.
I have to say, with the Seventh Princess's abilities, if she were put in the end times, she would at least be a logistics statistician!
The two military supervisors, Ke and Wei, went to the second ship and took some of the men with them.
Xiangying handed the list to Jie Chen and asked him to cross out the names of the soldiers who were not on the ship.
After Jie Chen finished, Xiang Ying simply counted them.
There are now forty soldiers on this ship, including two captains.
There were thirty prisoners, fourteen of whom were infected.
Xiangying divided the soldiers into four teams, each with ten people. Excluding the infected patients, the remaining prisoners were divided into groups of three. This would reduce the risk of large-scale spread of the plague.
Jie Chen took a lot of diluted alcohol from Xiangying, and took Scarface and the others to sprinkle the so-called "Xiangying detoxifying potion" in every room.
According to Xiangying's request, the water must be sprinkled every morning, noon and evening, and Scarface and several soldiers are responsible for this.
Immediately afterwards, Xiangying vacated two of the upper cabins as treatment rooms.
With her arrangement, everyone was safely isolated, but there were obviously not enough cabins.
Xiangying originally lived with the children, but she considered that she would come into contact with patients and was worried that she would accidentally infect the children.
So, after she and Jie Chen made all the arrangements, they went to say goodbye to the children.
When the three little ones and Tao Xue heard that they wouldn't be able to see her for several days, their eyes suddenly became red.
Xiang Xiuxiu held Xiangying's hand with her little hand, and her voice was soft and tearful.
"Mother, Xiuxiu will go to help you. Xiuxiu can carry wooden barrels and patients."
Xiangying stroked her little face with a smile: "Of course, others will do those things. Xiuxiu will just follow her two brothers and stay with Taoxue."
Tao Xue sobbed, "Princess, the plague is so dangerous. I can't help you. I will take good care of the three little princes so that you don't have to worry."
Qi Fengyi also said: "I will protect them too."
Xiangying gave them both an approving look.
Considering that the three children were too young, Tao Xue and Qi Fengyi could stay in the same compartment.
"Someone comes to deliver clean water every day." After Xiang Ying gave the instructions, she turned her head and saw Xiang Yuanxiao's big black eyes looking straight at her.
Her little mouth was pursed stubbornly, as if she wanted to say something.
Xiangying was curious: "Yuanxiao, don't you have anything to say to mother?"
Xiang Yuanxiao turned his head away and remained silent.
Xiang Yuanlang said calmly, "Brother is afraid that his words will implicate you."
Xiang Ying was startled, then he hugged Xiang Yuanxiao's soft little body in his arms and patted his back.
"Yuan Xiao, you are the eldest brother, you must take good care of everyone."
Xiangying lowered his voice and whispered in his ear: "Under the bed, I left two large bags of dried meat for you. Take them out and eat when you are hungry."
Although someone delivers meals every day, Xiangying makes sure to prepare everything for the children.
At this time, Jie Chen walked to the door and took a look at the scene in the room where the mother and her two children were saying goodbye. His thin eyes sank slightly.
"Two sick prisoners died in the cabin." After he said that, Tao Xue's face turned pale.
Xiangying immediately stood up and was about to leave, but Xiangyuanlang, who was always cold and unfriendly, immediately grabbed her hand.
"What will you do? If you are sick, who will take care of you? The cabins are full, where will you sleep these days?" the little guy asked three questions in a row.
In order to reassure him, Xiangying pointed at Jiechen and said, "He will take care of me, no need to worry."
Xiang Yuanlang looked at Jie Chen with eyes full of distrust and suspicion.
Xie Chen and Xiang Ying looked at each other, and he said in a deep voice: "She is the only person on the ship who knows how to cure the plague. I will protect her with my life."
Xiang Yuanlang said in a cold voice: "You'd better keep your word, otherwise, when I grow up, I will seek justice for her."
"Don't forget, she helps you not because it's her obligation, nor is it her responsibility. It's just because she's a good person."
Xiangying never expected that his second son, who was usually taciturn, could say such delicate words.
She was so touched that she couldn't help herself!
But she didn't have much time left to say goodbye to her children.
Xiangying asked them to take care of each other, and then left with Jiechen.
The skinny monkey locked the door from the outside.
Each cabin must be controlled in this way and will only be opened when medicine is placed, food and clean water are distributed.
As soon as the door closed, they heard Xiangying's footsteps leaving. Taoxue and Qi Fengyi hugged their three children and shed tears of worry.
The boat drifted on the river. It was no longer as dangerous as Hulukou, but it brought a more frightening unknown.
The two prisoners who had died in the cabin had been carried to the deck by Jie Chen's men.
Xiangying walked over and used the wooden stick to lift the white cloth again, and took a look at the two dead people.
She remembered that they were the female members of the Censorate's family, a mother and daughter.
Xiangying silently took the white cloth back and turned to Jiechen and said, "Tie a raft to the side of the boat, put the two people on it, pour kerosene on it and burn it."
This is the safest way, which can not only ensure that the plague does not spread downstream through the water source, but also reduce the number of viruses carried on the corpses.
Xiangying had just finished speaking and Jie Chen was about to make arrangements when they heard a frightened noise coming from the inside of the pile of wooden boxes behind them.
Xie Chenbo's eyes narrowed: "Who's there?"
Scarface immediately stepped forward and pulled a person out of the wooden box!
