After the medicinal soup was ready, Chi Xingyue distributed it to everyone in the Ling family.
She was not stingy and cooked a new pot for the Han and Wang families who trusted her, as well as the Jiangning Prefecture yamen runners and Ling Jiheng's men.
Seeing this, the Chen family also picked up some firewood to boil medicine, but they were far away from the main group and left Master Chen far away.
Chen Jintao, Chen Yinxiu, and Madam Chen were extremely anxious, but no one dared to go near, for fear that they would be infected too.
She cried in front of everyone in the Chen family and was despised by many people.
After drinking the medicine and continuing on the road, Chi Xingyue sank his consciousness into the space, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and made a pot of tea with spiritual spring water.
Then I sat at the gate of the village committee compound, feeling the breeze and watching the years go by peacefully.
Chi Xingyue felt like an old man. If she hadn't traveled through time, she would have been so leisurely after retirement!
I can only say, alas!
In a blink of an eye, a day passed and the plague broke out completely in the exile team.
Master Chen had already lost consciousness due to the fever, and Madam Chen, Chen Jintao, Chen Yinxiu, and other members of the Chen family were also dizzy.
It can be said that there are not many good ones.
In addition to them, there were also several young children from the Han and Wang families who secretly poured out the medicine because they were afraid of the bitter taste.
Now, everyone is sick.
"What should we do? If the loss of personnel is too great, we won't be able to explain this to the officials in Youzhou!"
What's more, they dared neither cut off the ears of the exiles who died of the plague nor carry their bodies north.
If the disease spreads, it will be a serious crime.
The leading Jiangning Prefecture yamen runner hurriedly went to Ling Jiheng to discuss the matter. Ling Jiheng pondered for a moment and called Doctor Cheng.
Ask him to write a prescription and pick and choose from the medicine bags in his car to see if he can get one or two prescriptions for emergency use.
Doctor Cheng, after receiving Ling Jiheng's signal, immediately selected a dozen herbs from several commonly used medicine bags and said, "It would be great if there were scutellaria seeds."
Tenglizi?
This Chi Xingyue has it!
At that time, because the scutellaria seeds were too small and difficult to store, I specially found a bottle with a narrow mouth and a big belly to store them!
He hurried back to the carriage and rummaged through the drawers.
Then he hid in a corner, his soul entered the space, wrapped some with oil paper, and flashed out: "Doctor Cheng, do you think this is it?"
Doctor Cheng looked up and nodded immediately: "Yes, yes, bring it here and put some in."
He pinched a small handful and said, "Alright, just endure it! I can't say it will cure the disease, but it will relieve the symptoms, so it should be no problem!"
Chi Xingyue nodded and handed the medicine to the yamen runner.
The bailiff was stunned for a moment before he handed it to the Chen family and asked those who were still able to move to get up and work quickly.
When Chi Xingyue saw the Chen sisters looking at her fiercely, she rolled her eyes.
What kind of sweet dream is that? Are they expecting a little fairy like her to cook soup for them?
It’s better to wake up!
Chi Xingyue was worried that something might happen to his own people, so he took the initiative to take out some brown rice and make porridge for everyone.
He also said: "Eating well will give you strength and prevent you from getting sick easily!"
The old lady had no objection, and neither did the old man.
Not to mention the others, they all wished she would put in a few more handfuls of rice.
Chi Xingyue put half of the spiritual spring water into the earthenware jar and squatted over the fire to simmer it slowly.
He glanced around and found a lot of wild vegetables, so he asked people to pick them, then washed them, chopped them up, and put them into the porridge.
A clay pot of wild vegetable porridge was quickly prepared. The Ling family shared it and ate it before continuing on their journey.
But in order to take care of the Chen family, the speed is very slow.
Inevitably, we encountered several more groups of refugees.
Fortunately, no conflict occurred.
In the evening, all the members of the Ling family went out, some picking wild vegetables, some catching forks, some collecting bird eggs, and no one was idle.
Chi Xingyue took the opportunity to take out a nest of bird eggs from the space. Just as he was about to go back, he saw a walnut tree in the woods.
He quickly called the Ling family and asked them to pick walnuts.
During this period, walnuts are not particularly full.
But they had no choice but to pick them to fill their stomachs.
A group of people looked at the green fruits and cheered under the tree.
But none of them could climb, so after a brief moment of excitement, they could only look at the fruits on the branches and sigh in despair.
Fortunately, the Jiangning Prefecture servants and Ling Yi were all very skilled and they climbed up the branch in no time.
With a few slashes, the green fruits fell to the ground like rain.
After a while, the Ling family came forward and gathered the fruits together to distribute them later.
Chi Xingyue didn't wait there, but strolled and played in the woods with Ling Jiheng.
The forest here is lush and green, so maybe if you look around, you can find something good!
What's more, the two of them actually found a stream not far away.
There are not many big fish in it, but there are still quite a few small fish and shrimps as long as thumbs.
Chi Xingyue reached out and grabbed a shrimp.
The shrimp jumped around and splashed water all over her face.
Seeing this, Ling Jiheng called the Ling family to catch shrimp together.
But Ling Jihao despised it: "Second brother, this thing has no meat and is very fishy. How about we forget it?"
Ling Jiheng raised his hand and slapped the other man. "We've had too many good days. I wonder how far we are from Youzhou? Is the little food on the cart enough?"
Ling Jihao was scolded so much that he dared not say a word. He trotted to the river and reached out to catch shrimps.
It is also because they are now far away from Jiangnan, Guzhen and Shangjing, otherwise they would not dare to touch the things in the river.
The group worked until dark before returning to where the team was staying.
The Jiangning Prefecture yamen runners have already transported the green-shelled walnuts here.
Since it was Chi Xingyue who discovered the tree, and the Jiangning Prefecture servants and Yin Bao and others picked the fruits, they were divided equally into three parts, one part for each family.
