After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

As soon as Liu Si Niang said this, not only Si Jiu, but even Wen Baizhi was certain that something uncontrollable must have happened in Jinzhou.

Si Jiu thought of the strange phenomena he saw in the village.

A lot of things are connected in series.

"So many of the houses there are actually unoccupied and empty, which is why there is no smoke from cooking at mealtime."

Liu Si Niang nodded with tears in her eyes.

No wonder.

"You said that there are still people with high fever, which means that this disease has not ended yet in your place, right?" Si Jiu asked.

Liu Si Niang recalled her life over the past six months and thought of those people she used to know being taken away one by one.

There are only a few people who can come back alive and safely.

"The village chief also told me not to go out without an emergency, let alone leave the village at will," Liu Si Niang said with guilt in her eyes. "But Xiaobao, Xiaobao got a high fever for some reason. I tried countless methods but couldn't get rid of the fever. I had no choice but to hold Xiaobao in my arms and go to the village chief and the gentleman to ask for help."

Liu Si Niang still remembers that although the village chief was wholeheartedly for them, he still wore a veil when meeting outsiders.

But the teacher who was invited back by the village chief seemed to be fearless and met them directly.

Liu Si Niang knelt in front of the two of them, begging the village chief to save them.

The village chief looked at Xiaobao who was unconscious due to a high fever and sighed continuously, his eyes full of helplessness.

She knelt down again to beg the gentleman.

The gentleman's eyes were full of compassion. He looked at the village chief and said something that Liu Si Niang didn't understand.

He said.

"When the time comes, let them go."

After hearing this, Si Jiu's eyebrows knitted together.

"Timing? What does he mean by timing?" Wen Baizhi asked.

Liu Si Niang shook her head: "I don't know either. I only know that he later pointed me to a road. He told me that if I took Xiaobao to that road, the person I would see would be a big shot from Kyoto, and that person would be able to save Xiaobao."

She had no other choice but to listen to him and go to that road.

Perhaps it was God's blessing that allowed her to meet Si Jiu and his group not long after.

Because the village chief deliberately blocked it, no one has walked on this road for a long time.

Therefore, when Liu Si Niang saw them, she felt infinite hope in her heart.

This must be the person that the gentleman mentioned, the one who can save Xiaobao.

But Si Jiu and the others didn't think it was a coincidence.

They realized that Liu Si Niang's visit to them was not accidental, but someone did it deliberately.

And that person was the teacher who appeared in their village.

"So what we know now is that there are still people infected in your village, and this situation started this spring. In addition, the teacher invited by your village chief may have a lot to do with this infection."

Si Jiu slowly stated all his current speculations.

Liu Si Niang subconsciously denied: "No, sir definitely has nothing to do with this infection."

He helped himself.

Si Jiu asked: "Do you remember when he came to your village?"

Liu Si Niang recalled: "It seems to be this spring."

Si Jiu continued to ask: "The people in the village were taken away with high fever and infection. Was it before or after he came?"

Liu Si Niang's face turned pale. "It seems so. Yes, it was after he came. After he came."

Now, she, who was originally certain that there was no problem with her husband, couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

It was too much of a coincidence. Even the fact that she came to find Si Jiu and the others with Xiaobao was arranged by him.

What a coincidence.

Si Jiu saw her hesitation and comforted her: "Now everything is just our speculation. We have to wait until Xiaobao's condition stabilizes and we are out of danger. Then we can go to the village to find him and ask him in person before we can know the answer."

The truth cannot exist in people's mouths and speculations.

Liu Si Niang could only nod weakly.

Xiaobao is not completely out of danger yet, and they are still at risk of infection.

The safest and most appropriate thing to do now is to continue staying in this yard.

Wen Baizhi stepped forward and put her hand on Liu Si Niang's shoulder to comfort her: "Don't think about the future for now. The most urgent thing is to protect ourselves and wait for Xiaobao to get healthy."

There was still a tear on Liu Si Niang's chin: "Thank you very much, thank you very much."

Si Jiu asked some more questions about the village. After Liu Si Niang told him everything she knew, she went back to her room.

After she left, Wen Baizhi couldn't wait to talk to Si Jiu: "What do you think is going on in that village?"

She had never been good at mental activities, and now this matter seemed beyond her ability to think.

Si Jiu didn't really understand it either: "I don't know either, but my intuition tells me that everything in Jinzhou is not simple."

Whether it's a poor harvest or a riot.

Or smallpox nowadays.

Even the teacher who appears at all coincidences for no reason.

Wen Baizhi found it very strange to see him frowning and thinking deeply.

But she still comforted him: "Okay, if you don't know, then don't know. Didn't you just say that the most important thing now is our safety. We can think about the rest later. Just live in the present."

Upon hearing this, Si Jiu's frown relaxed and his expression softened a lot.

"You're right, live in the present first."

That village full of mysteries will have to wait until later to be explored.

There are few recreational activities in this era.

Now they are confined to the house and cannot walk around freely.

Wen Baizhi felt like she was going crazy from boredom.

Si Jiu, however, was able to calm down and sit by the window reading.

The room they lived in was the largest one in the yard.

In addition to the bathroom at the back, there is also a corner with a desk and an antique shelf.

Si Jiu was reading a book, so Wen Baizhi didn't want to disturb him.

She walked around to the desk and sat down in the chair.

There were pens, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, everything was very complete.

Wen Baizhi rolled her eyes and thought of a good entertainment activity.

She took out a piece of paper and spread it on the table, then took two brushes in her hands.

She first drew a tic-tac-toe grid on the paper.

He called out to Si Jiu again: "Zi Jin."

As soon as Si Jiu heard her voice, he looked up in her direction.

When Wen Baizhi saw that he responded to her, her eyes lit up instantly.

She waved to Si Jiu: "Come here quickly."

Si Jiu put down the book and came to the desk.

Wen Baizhi instructed him again: "Go and move another stool and sit opposite me."

Si Jiu did as he was told, moved a chair and sat opposite her.

Wen Baizhi handed him a brush with bright eyes.

Then he pushed the drawn paper between the two of them.

Si Jiu was puzzled: "What kind of totem is this?"

Wen Baizhi sneered and said, "This is not a totem. It's a little game."

At that time, Wen Baizhi didn't know that this little game she played to kill time in Jinzhou would bring her so much trouble in the future.

How much harm and blow did it bring to Si Jiu.
