Chapter 100 My Life is Cheap
Jiang Qingyue calmed her mind and inserted the needle faster and faster.
There were even a few places where she used the needles very harshly.
The old man's son jumped up and said, "Miss Jiang San, if you disrespect my father again, we will not be polite!"
But just as he finished speaking, he looked behind Jiang Qingyue and retreated again.
The look in that maid's eyes was so scary.
The foreigners hiding among the people saw that Yuxiao's skills were quite good, and if they took action at this time, their identities would probably be exposed.
A few people exchanged secret signals with each other, then hid behind the people and disappeared without a trace.
Yuxiao looked in that direction, her voice as cold as ice.
"Miss, I'm going to kill them."
When the old man's children heard it, they thought Yuxiao was talking about them. They were so scared that their legs went weak and they begged for mercy.
At this time, Jiang Qingyue was holding the old man's fingertips and acupuncturing the Shixuan acupoints, then pulling up his sleeves and supplementing it with the Neiguan acupoint.
"No rush. Remember that face first, and I'll take care of it later."
Then, she stuffed another medicinal herb into the old man's mouth as she did yesterday, and continued to treat him.
The old man's children were angry but dared not speak out, but others began to have doubts in their hearts.
Just today I was saying that Miss Jiang was a kind person, but now it seems that she might have some personal grudge against me.
The dead are the greatest. Since the person is gone, let him go unharmed. But she will be punished by heaven for tormenting the dead like this!
All the ways to save him were almost exhausted, but there was no response from the old man.
Jiang Qingyue's heart hardened. She pressed the old man's chest and pressed down hard with her palm.
Everyone thought Jiang Qingyue was crazy.
Even Yuxiao was a little shocked.
"Miss, forget it."
"I can't let it go! Even the King of Hell can't snatch my life away!"
She picked up the silver needle and gave it the last injection. The old man who had just died suddenly opened his eyes and gasped.
Everyone was so shocked that they were speechless, except for the old man's two children, who cried with joy.
Alive!
The person is alive!
Yuxiao looked at Jiang Qingyue in disbelief.
She actually has the ability to snatch people from the King of Hell.
Suddenly, the people no longer had any doubts about Jiang Qingyue's medical skills, and some even knelt down to worship her as Guanyin.
Those guards also looked at Jiang Qingyue differently.
Jiang Qingyue wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and when she stood up, she felt dizzy and almost fell down.
"Miss!"
Yuxiao hurriedly supported her, but Jiang Qingyue withdrew her hand.
She glanced at the guards and said, "Go and reinforce all the roofs to prevent such tragedies from happening again."
Forget it, she said to Yuxiao: "I just came into contact with a seriously ill patient, please don't get too close to me."
Yuxiao didn't care about that.
"These things can be done by the young lady, and this servant can also do them."
Jiang Qingyue shook her head, "I'm different from you. My life is cheap."
Yu Xiao's face darkened. "Did the Jiang family say that?"
The Jiang family has looked down on Jiang Qingyue for a long time, so it's not surprising that they would say such words.
But Jiang Qingyue still shook her head.
The Jiang family did look down on her, but she was the one who said that her life was worthless.
The master said that life is cheap and easy to support, so it is natural for him to test the medicine on her and treat her as a drug slave.
She gets sick like ordinary people, but her life is tougher than others.
It's not that easy to kill her.
Yuxiao didn't know any of this, so she simply attributed the source of this sentence to the Jiang family.
The Jiang family will regret it in the future for letting the young lady down like this.
After returning to the tent, a guard came to report to Jiang Qingyue.
Jiang Qingyue recognized that this was the guard who was beaten with a horsewhip by Chu Hean during the day.
"I am Xu Yan, the chief of the prince's guards. Of the over four hundred people affected by the blizzard, only seventy-three have shown no symptoms..."
Xu Yan told Jiang Qingyue all this, and Jiang Qingyue was shocked. Compared to before Yuxiao left, there were seven or eight more people who were seriously ill.
So many people suddenly appeared in just half a day. If this continues, the plague will be difficult to prevent and control.
Jiang Qingyue hesitated for a moment, "When will your prince come?"
Xu Yan shook his head. "The prince is busy with important matters. I don't know when he will come again."
Busy with important tasks?
If Jiang Qingyue didn't know Chu Hean's character well, she would have believed it.
"The herbs I brought are insufficient and can only last for two or three days. Send someone to tell your prince to prepare enough herbs and send them to me immediately."
In fact, Jiang Qingyue had already sent someone to deliver these matters once in the afternoon, but she thought it would fall on deaf ears.
But since Xu Yan took the initiative to tell her this, it means he trusts her medical skills.
I think I should find a way to send the matter of the medicinal materials to Chu Hean.
"It's not the expensive herbs that can save lives. Plagues are diseases that primarily break out in impoverished areas. Because people lack the money to treat them, they become increasingly serious, leading to outbreaks. Therefore, the most common herbs will suffice. The important thing is to treat the disease early, to seize the opportunity before it breaks out completely."
Xu Yan nodded, "Don't worry, Miss Jiang San, I will definitely report this to the prince."
Jiang Qingyue let out a long breath, hoping that the court would send someone to help as soon as possible.
Otherwise, she would be isolated and helpless and wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
At this time, Xie Lingyun stood at the foot of Fulai Mountain and looked up. He could still see the dark clouds pressing down in the night, as if the whole mountain was shrouded in haze.
He was wearing light black armor, with a black iron sword at his waist, and his eyes were three times colder than the cold pool in the mountains.
Deputy General Zhao Cheng, also wearing light armor, came up quickly and said, "The spies reported that the bandit camp is behind the dense forest halfway up the mountain."
Zhao Cheng paused and hesitated for a moment: "The cliff on the west side is extremely steep. Should we really send elite troops to climb from there? What if..."
"Nothing will happen."
Xie Lingyun did not take any risks.
He not only wants to wipe out these bandits, but also find out who is controlling them behind the scenes.
Taking advantage of the bandits causing trouble, they even dared to massacre the government officials.
Wouldn't that mean rebelling and seizing the throne?
This is the only time to attack the mountain and suppress the bandits. If there is any mistake, won't that old thief in the gutter be on guard?
If you want to take action, you must catch others off guard.
Xie Lingyun's eyes were cold, "Once we get a signal from the top of the mountain, we'll proceed according to the plan."
As soon as he finished speaking, a hawk circled down from the top of the mountain.
The eagle flew straight towards Xie Lingyun, but Zhao Cheng and others did not react at all.
Xie Lingyun raised his arm and the eagle landed steadily on it.
In the darkness of night, the goshawk's eyes are like a blade, with a cold light and a desire for prey.
There was a note in the eagle's beak. When Xie Lingyun took it out, the eagle spread its wings and flew high again, but it only circled above Xie Lingyun's head, as if waiting for some kind of order.
When Xie Lingyun opened the note, Zhao Cheng immediately asked someone to bring a torch so that he could see it more clearly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he took the torch, Xie Lingyun had already thrown the note away.
A determined smile appeared on the corner of his lips. Zhao Cheng and other soldiers were excited when they saw it.
"Attack the mountain!"
