After hearing what Li Xia said, Zhou Ping immediately said, "Medicinal herbs are not a problem. I have everything here. What herbs do you need, young lady? I'll have someone take you to the warehouse and you can take whatever you want. As long as you can cure Ying Niang, no matter how many herbs you need, as long as you tell me and I have them, you can take them. Even if I don't have any herbs here, I will try my best to find them."
He raised his eyes, looked into Li Xia's eyes, and said with a firm gaze.
In his heart, no matter how precious the medicinal herbs are, they are not as important as Ying Niang.
Although he had never heard of such a strange disease as plague.
But from the girl's description, this disease is very dangerous.
Zhou Ping was frightened.
He couldn't imagine what he would do if something really happened to Yingniang.
Zhou Ping regretted deeply at this moment.
He now deeply regretted what he had said to Yingniang during the day.
"Brother Zhou, you just said that as long as I cure Yingniang's illness, you can promise me something. Is this true?" Li Xia tried to find out Zhou Ping's intentions.
She licked her lips, raised her eyes to look at him, and spoke.
She could see that.
Yingniang holds a special place in Zhou Ping's heart.
That being the case, she could then put forward her own conditions.
"Of course." Zhou Ping nodded. "Miss, just tell me what you want."
He knew that Li Xia would not bring this up for no reason.
Since she brought it up, she must have something to ask for.
"Brother Zhou should have heard about the current situation in Yicheng. The world is in turmoil, wars have broken out in various places, and innocent people are implicated." Li Xia licked her lips and said, "The people are innocent. Although natural disasters and man-made disasters are inevitable, since Brother Zhou has life-saving herbs, why not do a good deed and save the lives of the people in Yicheng? It can also be regarded as accumulating virtue for future generations. I believe they will all be very grateful to you."
She blinked her eyes and began to persuade Zhou Ping.
If I just asked him for some, Zhou Ping would definitely not hesitate at all.
But if we want to save the lives of everyone in the city.
What he needs is most likely all the medicinal materials he has.
Zhou Ping led his brothers and risked their lives to rob the escort vehicle.
Now let him give her all the medicinal herbs he looted.
It is understandable that Zhou Ping had some hesitation.
"You're not asking for your own sake?" Zhou Ping frowned.
He originally thought that Li Xia would seize this opportunity to ask for something that would benefit him.
But she didn't expect that she was doing it for someone who had nothing to do with her.
Li Xia shook her head and smiled, "I don't have the heart of a bodhisattva. Although what I ask for seems to be for unrelated people, it is actually for myself and the people I care about. After all, if the plague in the city cannot be controlled, not only will the lives of the people in the city be in jeopardy, but any living thing that comes into contact with it will be very likely to be infected, and the spread speed is alarming. Moreover, even if the person with the plague dies in the end, as long as his body is not burned to ashes, it will continue to spread. By then, more than one city will be affected, and you and I will not be able to escape."
She just sees further than ordinary people.
If the plague really becomes uncontrollable, they will all perish without the need for war.
"It's so serious..."
When Zhou Ping heard Li Xia's words, his eyes widened and he sighed in his heart.
Although he had just heard the girl's description, he had some understanding of this strange disease.
I also know that this disease is dangerous.
But I didn't expect it to be so dangerous.
Originally Zhou Ping was still a little hesitant, even though he was the leader of the village.
But after all, he didn't rob those two truckloads of medicinal materials by himself.
The brothers also have a part to play.
They risked their lives with him to rob the escort carriage.
You can't make the decision alone.
But after hearing what Li Xia said, Zhou Ping agreed with her very much.
If you choose not to care about it at this time.
When the situation gets out of control in the future, they will not be able to remain immune.
Zhou Ping moved his lips, raised his eyes, looked at Li Xia and said, "Miss, to be honest, what we robbed today were two carts of medicinal herbs that were transported to the front line. Although we have fallen into the trap of bandits, my brothers all act according to the rules. We usually only intercept the belongings of some evil people. The reason why we robbed the official escort this time is because there is a grudge between us brothers and the government. We originally wanted to vent our anger, but then we thought that the war is going on now, and medicinal herbs are valuable. Although we can't eat them, we can exchange them for silver."
"But the young lady is so kind at such a young age. Just as you said, to accumulate virtue for future generations, the herbs in the storehouse are given to you. You can take them as you like. I will give the order and no one will stop you."
Since you have encountered such a strange disease, it is no longer a personal matter.
It is better to suffer a loss now than to lose your life later.
"Thank you, Brother Zhou."
When Li Xia heard Zhou Ping agreed, she raised her eyes and nodded to him in thanks.
She thought she would have to talk more.
It seems that although Zhou Ping is a bandit, he is still kind-hearted.
Occupying the mountains and becoming a bandit must be something they have to do out of necessity.
After all, after months of war, many people have lost their homes and become displaced.
If they don't find a way to survive, the only thing waiting for them is death.
Li Xia felt ashamed for her misunderstanding of them just now.
Zhou Ping waved his hand. "It's okay. After all, this is for everyone. Just like the girl said, we can protect ourselves now and not get involved. But when things get out of control, no one can stay out of it. Helping others is also helping ourselves."
