Chapter 117 The Twitching Child



Leng Liecheng, who "ran away and was caught", was filled with shame when facing this group of people.

In that low-key carriage was the master of these guards.

He had never seen it, and even his second sister and third brother had never seen it.

The person inside was so mysterious that he felt in awe, grateful yet afraid to get close.

Their group was like many wealthy families who moved with their families. Although the group was not large, the guards who followed them did not seem to be someone to be trifled with.

The journey was smooth and there were no obstacles.

Chaoge walked slowly and met many refugees who were short-sighted enough to rob her because she was a woman alone. However, Chaoge scared them away by taking out her dagger and risking her life.

Even Chaoge's dagger finally drew blood, human blood. Even though she didn't kill those who wanted to steal her horse, the refugees didn't dare to target her anymore because of her ruthless look.

After walking more than two hundred miles, we passed several small towns and a county town. The only difference was that the atmosphere there was completely different from that of the county towns and small towns we passed before.

The county gates were wide open and the government sent food outside the gates, but the water problem was still almost unsolved.

The government directly pried open the houses of wealthy families who had fled the famine, melted their stored ice into water, and distributed it to the refugees. In addition, the government sent officers and soldiers to look for water for the refugees. Compared with before, these officers and soldiers did much more.

The refugees received food and water and continued on their journey.

Inspired by the last time she released water into the dry well, whenever Chaoge came across a dry well and there was no one around, she would fill it with stream water.

Perhaps with this water, plus the food distributed by the court, fewer people would have died along the way.

The closer you get to Taichuan Prefecture, the greener it becomes.

As the green grew more and more, even the faces of the refugees who had fled the famine together gradually began to smile, no longer as desperate as before.

The sun was at its hottest, and the group walked into a forest. Even though it was already September, some leaves had not fallen yet, providing some shade.

Even if Chaoge didn't need to rest, she still had to consider the horse that had walked with her for hundreds of miles.

She tied the reins to a tree nearby, feeling the essence of the plants in the forest slowly entering her own black jade, then she took out a wild fruit and began to chew it.

Like her, many refugees choose to rest temporarily under the shade of the tree.

The hope of escaping famine, which was becoming increasingly promising, was suddenly disrupted by a woman's scream in this quiet forest!

"Bao, Baozi, don't scare mother!

Don't scare my mother!

Everyone, please be kind and save my child! I kneel down before you!

Please, if anyone has antipyretic medicine, please give me some!"

The crying of the woman in front attracted Chaoge's attention.

She stretched her neck and looked sideways, and saw a young woman in tattered clothes, holding a one-year-old child, kneeling on the ground, begging for help.

Tears of despair and sadness made the already dirty face even dirtier.

“There’s no medicine. The child is having convulsions. There’s no way he can be saved!

Alas, it’s no use begging us!”

The woman held the twitching child in her arms, grabbed a maid, and knelt down.

The old woman looked at the child in the woman's arms with regret, sighed, and quickly pushed the woman away.

Chaoge ate the fruit in two bites, walked to the woman, looked at the child's symptoms, and immediately took the fruit from the woman.

“Don’t touch….”

"Stop talking nonsense. If you continue to hold your child like this, there's really no way he can be saved!"

Chaoge's voice sternly stopped the woman's words of persuasion. The woman raised her eyes in surprise and looked at Chaoge. Tears continued to fall from her eyes, but there was obviously a little more light in her eyes!

"You, can you save my child?"

"He's having a convulsion due to fever. Lay him flat on the ground and turn his head to the side.

Let him go, and I'll give him medicine once this is over."

Normally, Chaoge would not show off his medical skills to meddle in other people's affairs.

But when she saw that it was such a young child, her maternal love overflowed and she naturally would not stand idly by.

This may also be because she is about to become a mother.

Chaoge returned to Ma'er, who had two bags on him. Although there was nothing in them, she still pretended to take out a box of silver needles and some antipyretic drugs for children.

When Chaoge came back, the child was still twitching.

Seeing that the woman listened to Chaoge's words and really abandoned the child, the people around her couldn't stand it anymore and started to complain and blame her.

"The child is so pitiful. She doesn't know any medical skills at all, and she's still here delaying his treatment!

It’s just nonsense!”

Chaoge got furious when he heard this, and he raised his head and yelled back at the refugees who only knew how to talk nonsense but couldn't help at all: "If you can do it, come on!

If you can’t do it, just shut up!

Get out of here! The child needs air. What are you all doing around him?

Come and watch the fun!"

After Chaoge's roar, the group of refugees moved a little further away, cursing.

But the look of dissatisfaction in his eyes never disappeared!

"Girl, you're still smoking, what should I do? Do you really not need to care?"

The woman looked at Chaoge with tearful eyes, not caring about the refugees who were making sarcastic remarks.

She knew clearly that she had sought help from so many people, but only the veiled woman in front of her was willing to help her. If she didn't grab her life-saving straw, there would be no other way.

"It's okay. I'll give him an injection right away and his symptoms will be relieved soon."

Seeing Chaoge opening the silver needle bag, the woman's uneasy heart was completely relieved!

This silver needle package is enough to prove that she met a real doctor!

"Thank you, girl. Thank you, girl!"

The woman listened to Chaoge's words and really didn't dare to touch her son anymore. She just let him be placed on the ground. Even though she was heartbroken, she didn't dare to hit him.

The moment Chaoge took out the silver needle bag, the woman seemed to see hope instantly.

Faced with the refugees' chattering, she had some doubts about Chaoge, but now she was completely relieved.

After Chaoge finished speaking, she knelt down in front of Chaoge with gratitude and kowtowed to him!

Chaoge didn't have time to care about her. When she put the silver needles on the acupuncture points on the child and looked back, she saw that the woman was still knocking on the child stupidly.

She hurriedly reached out to stop her, and when the woman looked up again, her forehead was broken and bleeding.

Only then did Chaoge see clearly that this woman was actually a beautiful woman.

If it weren't for the dirt on her face that covered most of her beauty, Chaoge would have been worried about her as a single woman fleeing famine.

"Thank you girl, thank you girl!

Baozi is fine now, Baozi is not smoking anymore!

Thank you, girl! Thank you! "
