“Don’t cry, listen to what the people in the meeting said, they are all capable people.
We don’t have the ability, so we should listen to what the capable people have to say.”
"Yes, yes, yes... We have to listen to what they have to say. Oh no, let's talk about it..."
"Xiushui, you are the doctor representative, and you are the only one in our group who understands this.
You tell us what should be done and we'll follow your advice. Also, you should come up with a set of rules. We have a lot of people, so we should establish what needs to be established."
The old village chief spoke, looking at her with burning eyes.
Lao Qian even applauded.
"That's right, girl. We will do whatever you say. Anyone who doesn't cooperate will be kicked out of the team."
Being criticized by everyone, Xiushui could only temporarily use his own knowledge.
"Since there's no way to retreat and we can only move forward, then let's move forward. I suggest sending a few people forward with light luggage to explore the front.
Are you sure there really is an epidemic, or it's not just people fleeing famine and becoming sick due to physical weakness?
The second most important issue is water source. After we find the water source today, we will try our best to take away all the water we can.
Even cotton clothes can be soaked and taken away. When you walk without drinking water, you can also use it to cover your face to cool down the body and keep it moisturized.
Also, take as much water as you can from the next water source.
Third, if there is a plague, our live animals may not be saved, so we must be prepared for this.
Everyone has a plan in mind for what to do with the elderly and children who can't walk.
Fourthly, especially at this time, we must prevent rioting refugees. Our group still attracts a bit of attention..."
Even though there are a group of orphans and widows in the Women's Village, the refugees who have enough food to eat and those who are starving can still be distinguished at a glance.
What's more, there is a wealthy family called the Luo clan.
The old village chief nodded continuously with burning eyes.
"Xiu'er has said everything we can say. Now we just need to consider our belongings. Also, if the livestock are slaughtered, how will we take our people and belongings away?"
"Yes, these are the issues that need to be considered next, and the most urgent task is to take some necessary protective measures.
For example, we must wear masks and we must not touch the bodies. Uncle Village Chief, you should warn those people who are picking up the bodies not to touch them again."
"That's a must."
The old village chief quickly responded.
He glanced at the person who passed the message. In fact, he didn't need to say anything more. He believed that the group of people had heard it by now.
However, what needs to be struck still needs to be struck.
"Also, everyone, please bring out as much wine as possible. We'll use it as disinfectant. If anyone has limestone, we can use it too.
I'll tell you how to make that mask later. It's not something you can just make casually."
She can't sew without charcoal, but it is still possible with great guidance.
After everything was discussed, each of the three parties sent three smart people, led by Uncle Wen Liu, a total of ten people equipped with self-defense weapons, to explore the way ahead.
As for walking, we finally decided to take the main road for the time being. If the situation on the main road is not right, we will take the small road instead.
When the Luo family heard that livestock might be slaughtered if there was a plague, they were very anxious.
Chief Luo was surprised to see Xiushui leading people to make masks and even sewing charcoal powder inside.
"This is to kill harmful things. With this charcoal, our safety performance will be improved."
"Well, show it! Since we humans can wear it, can livestock wear it too?"
"It's mainly because it's such a long way and there are so many things. It would be really annoying if there were no livestock."
Xiushui is also worried. It would be so much easier if everyone just put their things in the car instead of carrying them.
If these animals were slaughtered, all the food would be piled onto the people.
She has a space to store messages, but she can't tell everyone that I can store things.
I’m afraid that after I install it, I might be burned as a monster the next moment.
"Uncle, theoretically, we can let livestock wear masks. But the problem is, what if the livestock feel bored and refuse to wear them and go on strike?"
This is entirely possible. After all, livestock are not children. Children can sense when something is wrong and stay quiet and don't cause trouble.
If the animals are dissatisfied, they will throw their hooves.
"Try to coax him as much as you can. You can't really kill him and let him carry his things on his own. Alas!"
Turning around, I saw the old village chief looking at his newly acquired bison with tears in his eyes. Well, it had only been a few days, but it seemed that the old village chief had developed a deep affection for the bison.
"Xiu, I really can't bear to part with this cow. You don't know, all along the way I was thinking about how to build a nest for it and how to find a good bull for it.
Seeing this newly tamed little darling about to be slaughtered, I feel really bad. What can I do? This is my fate. Something bad has happened..."
As he spoke, tears began to flow out of his eyes. Xiushui wondered if the men in Houshan Village were all very emotional!
She coughed. "Well, theoretically, as long as the livestock take the same safety precautions as we do, we can go together.
But you have to be mentally prepared for one thing, there is no such thing as an emergency.
If you kill them before you discover the plague, you might be able to make a lot of meat.
Take a chance, maybe he'll make it out like us, but there's also a chance he'll fall and never get up again!"
Normally speaking, farmers still like to get real benefits.
For example, when faced with this dilemma, according to Xiushui's understanding, the old village chief should choose to slaughter several hundred kilograms of meat.
After all, this weighs several hundred kilograms.
However, when the old village chief heard that he could be protected and walk with others, he was as happy as a 200-year-old child.
"Okay, I'll fight. My old friend has been fighting in the wild for so long, maybe he can make it through this."
Well, now we are old friends, Xiushui has nothing to say.
When I got back, I mentioned this to the old lady, saying that if proper protection was taken, we could take the livestock with us.
It just so happened that Chu Laowu and his wife were there too. They looked at their tamed wild horses with worried looks on their faces.
Needless to say, I feel heartbroken.
As long as the people who explored the way ahead passed back the correct information, saying that there was a plague or something, this beast.
"Alas... I really can't bear to let it go. I've become attached to it. It's like I'm stabbing it in the back... Alas..."
Chu Laowu's wife cried her heart out, looking like she had been abandoned by her lover.
Uncle Chu sighed again and again.
"Xiu, why are you so troubled... You've raised this horse like my son. Killing my son... I really can't bring myself to do it."
Seeing Chu Laowu, he had to squeeze out a few tears, looking at himself with such pitiful look... Xiushui really wanted to say to him, Uncle Wu, you acting genius, please stop, it's too eye-catching.
Your wife's performance is much more sincere and heartfelt than yours.
