Chapter 88 The Strange Ganliang County
Qiao Qiqi looked at the turmoil in front of her speechlessly, standing there without moving.
At this time, she found that the owner of the shop next to her had also closed the door and was about to follow the crowd!
She grabbed the owner of the bun shop and said, "Boss, you're not doing business anymore? Why did you come to watch the fun?"
"Oh, what are you talking about? I'm going to ask for medicine!"
The shop owner was caught by Qiao Qiqi and looked helpless.
Fortunately, the businessman was always good-tempered and did not get angry at Qiao Qiqi.
Looking at the surging crowd ahead, he figured he probably wouldn't be able to get the medicine if he went over, so he simply stopped panicking.
Looking at Qiao Qiqi and Pei Shaoling, he sighed softly, "You are from other places, right?"
"Yes, that's right! What kind of medicine does this charity hall give out?"
Qiao Qiqi asked doubtfully.
"Since five months ago, people in Ganliang County have been experiencing headaches for no apparent reason. When the pain comes, they almost wish they were dead."
The bun shop owner sighed softly, "At first, the doctors at the pharmacy could prescribe some herbal remedies to relieve the pain. But later, even those doctors were helpless!"
"And then? Is the medicine from this charity useful?"
Qiao Qiqi raised her eyebrows.
"Yes, since the Ganliang Charity Hall appeared three months ago and has been dispensing medicine every day for free, the headaches in our county have been much better."
The owner of the bun shop was very happy. "Thanks to Mr. Shi from the charity hall. He saved the people of our entire city!"
"So, is it possible to cure it?"
Seeing this, Qiao Qiqi asked softly.
"Mr. Shi said that this headache is caused by the climate of Ganliang County. Once it breaks out, it is difficult to cure. So he gives us some pain-relieving medicine every day to ensure that we can live a normal life."
The bun shop owner explained, then glanced ahead and said, "I'll go see if I can get another bowl."
After saying that, he left quickly.
"Husband, do you think Ganliang County is strange?"
Qiao Qiqi looked at the crowd in front of her, then at all the closed shops on both sides of the street and said.
“It’s very strange!”
Pei Shaoling pondered, "The headaches facing the people of Ganliang County came too suddenly!"
"Do you think someone might have poisoned them, and then..."
Qiao Qiqi speculated quietly, "But the timeline doesn't match. The disease broke out five months ago, and that kind-hearted Shi came to administer the medicine three months ago."
Moreover, since he was administering the medicine, it wasn't for the sake of money, so why did he go to such great lengths to poison the people of Ganliang County? This doesn't make sense."
Her face was full of confusion and her eyes were full of bewilderment.
"Your guess makes sense. However, perhaps these so-called kind people are not in it for the money!"
Pei Shaoling looked at the surging crowd in front of him and said, "What they may need is people!"
"People? Finding so many people to farm for them? Are there enough fields to farm?"
Qiao Qiqi felt that this charity hall was becoming more and more weird.
Or rather, the entire Ganliang County is very strange.
"It's a drought. We've been walking all this way, and the ground has already started to dry up and crack. How can we plant crops without water?"
Pei Shaoling raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and looked forward with a hint of coldness in his eyes, "It seems that Ganliang County is not a peaceful place either."
"Well, what do we do now?"
Qiao Qiqi asked as she looked at the closed shops around her.
"My dear, we don't need to worry about what's happening in Ganliang County. Find a secluded place, turn into rice and flour, and then wait for An Lei and the others to return at the city gate!"
Pei Shaoling thought for a moment and said.
"good."
Qiao Qiqi looked around and then led the donkey into the nearest alley.
She is a person who doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs.
No matter how strange Ganliang County is, it has nothing to do with her.
Just as she entered the alley and was about to take out the supplies she had looted in Youzhou from the space!
A small figure suddenly appeared in the alley!
"Madam, please save my father!"
The young man knelt in front of Qiao Qiqi and kowtowed repeatedly.
Qiao Qiqi looked carefully and found that it was Gu Changsheng's son whom they met on the road.
The young man woke up on the road after Qiao Qiqi gave him the medicine.
So he recognized Qiao Qiqi.
"Xiao Luo? Didn't you and your father go to your grandfather for help? What's going on?"
Qiao Qiqi looked at his disheveled appearance and asked softly.
"Quick, catch him! Hurry up, the master said that we can't let that kid escape from Ganliang County!"
Qiao Qiqi looked towards the sound coming from the corner at the end of the alley.
The young man was startled by the sound and quickly stood up and hid behind Pei Shaoling's wooden wheelchair.
At this time, a group of men dressed as servants with fierce looks approached Qiao Qiqi and Pei Shaoling, holding large swords. "Move aside! Have you seen a child passing by?"
"No!"
Qiao Qiqi replied calmly, holding the donkey.
"You little girl, don't tell the truth!"
The middle-aged man in the lead looked at Qiao Qiqi with a cunning expression, "You are from outside the area, right? Young lady, are you bringing your husband here to get his leg treated?"
"What I do here is none of your business!"
Qiao Qiqi said coldly.
"Hey, you little lady have quite a temper. Brothers, this little lady is quite pretty, a true beauty. Why don't we have some fun first, and then go find that brat!"
The leading man spoke to the people behind him with a lewd look on his face.
"Okay, we brothers haven't touched a woman in a long time! Boss, you go first!"
The servants behind him raised their long swords and laughed.
"Hey, my dear, your useless husband certainly can't satisfy you, right? Today, I'll show you how powerful I am!"
The man in the lead approached Qiao Qiqi with a lewd look on his face and took off his clothes.
"How dare you do this in broad daylight!"
Qiao Qiqi was not afraid, as she had a machete under her sleeve.
That's for cutting bones in the meat section.
I used it to kill wolves last time!
Just when Qiao Qiqi was waiting for those people to get closer and was ready to hit them!
Pei Shaoling behind her moved!
Qiao Qiqi only felt a flash before her eyes, and the people in front of her were staring at her.
Pei Shaoling sat back in the wooden wheelchair!
Afterwards, bright red waterfalls gushed out from the necks of those ferocious servants!
Qiao Qiqi frowned, looked at the blood on the ground and said to Pei Shaoling, "It's too dirty here, let's go to the main street first!"
Then she turned the donkey's head and walked towards the street.
Walking to another alley across the street, Qiao Qiqi asked the trembling boy Gu Xiaoluo,
"Xiao Luo, didn't you and your father go to your grandfather for help? Why would you ask me to save your father?"
