The days passed so leisurely.

Gu Yiyi didn't go to the town anymore. Butcher Wang and the others went to the town and brought back some news to her.

The money collected in restaurants and brothels was getting less and less, and Butcher Wang would feel sad every time he came.

After I prepared a pair of herbal medicines, there was no movement. If I came to the money channel, there was a tendency for it to cool down.

But Gu Yiyi was not in a hurry.

I heard Mr. Mei say that Lin Ziyan has been busy since he discovered that someone in Jiangjia Village was infected with the plague.

I travel between towns and villages, and I don’t know what I’m busy with every day.

Butcher Wang is also very busy. Not only does he have to go to town every day, but he also has to look at the mountains.

Once you have gathered some people, you have to take the lead and go to the village chief's house to make a fuss.

As expected, the village chief did not distribute the money to the villagers.

He wanted to take the money and fly away, but the villagers watched closely.

And leaving the village completely is not something that can be done in a day or two.

We need to lead the way, manage things, ventilate with the people above, release people from above, and settle Jiangjiacun before we can leave.

It's a nuisance anyway.

Now there are people watching at the village chief's house every day. Seeing people in the village falling ill one after another, they go to the town to buy medicine. The price of medicine is so high that the villagers are almost red-eyed.

They ransacked the village chief's house in an attempt to find the money.

But no matter how many times I turned it over, I still couldn't see a tael of silver.

During this period, some people also tried to go up the mountain to collect some herbs, but Butcher Wang stopped them several times. Later, Gu Yiyi refused to let Butcher Wang stop him. She asked Butcher Wang to take people into the mountain, and they were only allowed to collect herbs and nothing else.

The villagers were very grateful for Gu Yiyi's behavior.

Butcher Wang took people up the mountain several times, but gradually no one went up because they found that there were not many herbs in the mountain, and the few herbs they had were not effective in treating high fever emergencies.

The villagers set their sights elsewhere.

For a while, no one came to trouble him.

In fact, there is still someone who wants to cause trouble, and that is Jiang Yurou.

However, she was watched every day and could not go out at all.

The villagers no longer care about whose daughter she is, and they don't care about the difference between men and women. They rush into her house every day to look around if they have something to do, and there are some who take advantage of her with malicious intentions.

Jiang Yurou's teeth itched with hatred and she cursed Gu Yiyi in her heart.

The village chief was not much better. His clothes were stripped off several times a day.

He said he had no money, but no one believed him.

The villagers scolded him angrily and asked why he would think of leaving Jiangjia Village without money.

This is the root of the surname Jiang. How can I leave casually?

The village chief's eyes flickered and he said that he was just transferred to a minor official position elsewhere, and if they stopped him, he would be obstructing official duties!

People sneered and said they would not let them go, and would only let them go when they saw money.

They were in a stalemate and couldn't come up with a result.

On this day, Gu Yiyi was explaining some knowledge from books to the children in the study room.

Butcher Wang hurried over from outside and knocked on the door of her yard.

"Shen Changfeng from the Shen family! Something happened, open the door quickly!"

Gu Yiyi immediately walked out of the study and asked the children to lock the door.

Shen Changfeng was already in the courtyard when he heard Butcher Wang calling the door and let him in.

He was out of breath, "Oh, my aunt, come with me quickly."

"The village chief was ill. Lin Ziyan went to see the village chief. Somehow, someone said that Lin Ziyan had evil intentions."

"He also said that as soon as he came to the village, people started to get sick. It was him who made the village uneasy."

"Lin Ziyan was so angry that he said how could he control natural and man-made disasters? He was saved by you. So if he said that, wouldn't he deserve to die?"

"Not only did the villagers not calm down after hearing this, they said that the old Liu family's wife at the head of the village was very sick and was about to die. It must be the bad luck brought by Lin Ziyan. They also said that he had been treating the people in the village, but the people in the village were sick. More and more.”

"The village chief didn't even go out and he got sick. It must be the magic he used!"

"Now they set a fire in front of the village chief, tied up Lin Ziyan, and wanted to burn him alive!"

Gu Yiyi frowned after hearing this, "How could it develop to this point?"

Butcher Wang sighed, "Brother Lin is a very nice person, but his brain is a bit difficult."

"If he gets better and leaves, or leaves the village alone, he won't be tied up."

Shen Changfeng didn't want Gu Yiyi to interfere with this kind of business, but after all, it was a human life, so he was a little helpless.

"Madam, I'll go with you."

Gu Yiyi glanced at the children in the study room and hesitated.

"We're all gone, what about the children?"

Butcher Wang volunteered, "I'll stay here. You two can go and relax. Mr. Mei is watching over there, but he probably won't last long. You go quickly."

Gu Yiyi was still a little worried, she said: "Wait for me, I'll be right back."

After that, she turned around and went to the study. After a while, she came out.

"Butcher Wang, just watch the children, we'll go back as quickly as possible."

Butcher Wang nodded repeatedly, and Gu Yiyi and Shen Changfeng went out together.

The two quickly arrived at the village chief's door.

Just as Butcher Wang said, there was a circle of people surrounding the door, and Lin Ziyan was held in the middle.

He was shouting at the top of his lungs: "I told you this is a plague! Even if you burn me to death, dead people will still die! Put me down quickly! Maybe the disease can be cured!"

The villagers didn't believe what he said and spat at him several times.

"You said you were a barefoot doctor, and everyone believed you so they allowed you to see a doctor. Now people are almost dying because of you!"

"No matter what the disease is, it can be cured by burning it with fire!"

With that said, the villagers were about to light a fire.

The strange thing is that either the fire sticks can't light, or the torch can't light.

Or maybe the person who started the fire had crooked hands and feet.

The villagers were even more frightened and excited.

"This is really evil! Burn him to death!"

"If we don't burn him to death, our whole village will be doomed!"

"Yes! Burn him to death!"

Gu Yiyi glanced at Mr. Mei who was hiding in the dark and winked at him.

Wearing a mask, she squeezed through the crowd and kicked away the pile of wood under Lin Ziyan's feet.

The villagers were caught off guard by her and were stunned.

Gu Yiyi stretched out her hand to block Lin Ziyan, "Everyone, calm down. I can testify to Lin Ziyan. He told me a few days ago that there might be a plague in the village and asked me to be careful. Even if you burn him to death, you will still get sick when the time comes. Look, it’s better to keep him and give everyone free medical treatment!”

People with sharp eyes immediately recognized Gu Yiyi.

"Member of the Shen family, why are you here to join in the fun? What are you doing to save an unrelated person while you are just living your good life?"

As soon as the man finished speaking, a strange and sinister voice interrupted.

"What kind of unrelated person is this? Look, it's her concubine!"

Gu Yiyi frowned, her eyes cold.

Jiang Yurou felt proud in her heart, "You must have been right!"
