With the drizzle falling, Wu Yu brought four healthy male villagers, guards and others with umbrellas to the foot of the Bijia Mountain.

And here is where the bones of the villagers who died due to the epidemic were buried.

Backed by Bijia Mountain, there is a small river meandering in front of it.Backed by mountains and facing water is a rare good place.

Before the drought, the villagers of Xiaoshu Village used this small river for their daily drinking water.

"Girl, we all brought here today, what's the matter?"

Lin Tieniu was one of the village names, and he and Wu Yu could barely speak a few words, so they were the first to ask.

"Is this the place where you buried the people who died of the plague?"

Wu Yu didn't answer the question, Lin Tieniu didn't understand, but nodded his head:

"Yeah! Is this place good? They suffered all kinds of hardships and sins while they were alive, and they died and were buried here. Looking at the beautiful mountains and rivers, they can feel better!"

Wu Yu didn't reply, she looked at the short tomb, pursed her lips, and said silently:

"Offended."

Everyone was a little puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, but they didn't want Wu Yu to directly command the guards brought by the prince:

"Please dig up the grave."

As soon as these words came out, not only the guards were stunned, but the other villagers were completely stunned.

Digging graves was an unacceptable thing in ancient times!

"Girl! You begged the people of Xiaoshu Village for rain. We are very grateful to you! But if you want to use this kindness to do something to the graves of our relatives, you must first step over my corpse!"

Lin Tieniu had a reckless temper and burst into flames. He was the first to refuse to block in front of the grave family.

Several other villagers followed Lin Tieniu's footsteps and stood in front of the tomb, looking at Wu Yu warily.

They also couldn't figure out why this woman who had begged for life-saving rain for them one second, would do such bad things in the next second that they wanted to throw her out of the village.

Yes, blast out of the village.

Even though what Wu Yu proposed was not tolerated by the world, the simple villagers of Xiaoshu Village still didn't think of hurting her.

It's just that if Wu Yu must have such an idea that the world will be ruined, they will definitely not allow her to stay here.

"Do you think this is good for the village?"

Wu Yu was holding the umbrella, and her plain fingers were clutching the handle of Twilight's umbrella. I don't know if it was because of too much force, her knuckles turned slightly white.

The beautiful side face was moistened by the falling rain, and the loose hair on the temples was covered with a hazy layer of moisture, and the whole face became a little blurred.Her voice also became a little ethereal at this moment.

"If people who died of the plague were buried, the germs of the plague would seep into the soil as their corpses decayed.

If it encounters rain like it is now, those germs will flow with the flow of groundwater.

Take a closer look at this river and see where it flows. Do you want to eat the water of those infected corpses again one day? "

As soon as Wu Yu said this, several guards almost vomited.

But after vomiting, the villagers did not accept the result.

"What groundwater, what flow, we don't understand! Anyway, the people in our village have already buried in the ground, and none of you can disturb their peace!"

Lin Tieniu scratched his head and didn't understand what Wu Yu said. After listening, he rushed forward recklessly and roared loudly.

"Get out!"

The two guards held Lin Tieniu back with knives. They had been ordered by the prince to come here before. Seeing this and Ge Ge Ru seeing him, naturally they were very concerned about Wu Yu's safety.

And even if Lin Tieniu was forced to retreat, those tiger eyes were as red as blood:

"Anyway, no one is allowed to move this grave!"

Lin Tieniu squeezed his neck, and squeezed out these few words from between his teeth.

But at this moment, Yun Xin came running from a distance in a coir raincoat, and when she ran to Yun Xin, she was still out of breath, but she hurriedly said:

"Gege, no, it's not good! Village, there are two more sick people in the village today! And, and, according to Mr. Wang, the illness of the people in the village seems to have sped up today..."

Yun Xin said anxiously:

"Elder Wang sent his servants to look for you, please, please make up your mind!"

Yun's heart was in a hurry, and now his temple hair was disheveled, his face was wet by the rain, and the hair on his cheeks was stuck in strands.

A lot of mud spots were splashed on her clothes, one can imagine how anxious she was when she ran here just now.

Wu Yu couldn't hold back after hearing this, closed her eyes, and pursed her lips even tighter.

Sure enough, the scene she least wanted to see happened.

Wu Yu pushed aside the knife guarded by the guard in front of her, walked over to look up at Lin Tieniu, and said coldly:

"Now are you satisfied with this answer? During the severe drought before, they were buried in the ground to rot, and they couldn't pose much threat to you for a while.

But now that the rain is falling, the water in the ground begins to flow.The rain falls from their graves, seeps down, and will be eaten sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. "

Wu Yu spoke slowly, and the guards at the side also tightened their grip on the handle of the knife after hearing this.

They also thought that Wu Gege was talking big words before, but now the facts are in front of them, so they can't help but not believe it.

After hearing this, Lin Tieniu didn't say a word for the first time, but his lips trembled.

After a while, he turned around abruptly and looked at the scattered graves at the foot of the mountain. With a loud roar, he threw himself on the graves, and desperately picked them up with his callused hands. The soil on the grave.

"Father, mother, my son is not filial! My son is not filial! My son is sorry for you! But for the sake of the village, my son, I can only be unfilial!"

The man who was originally like a mountain, now his voice became choked up. He was pawing at the grave with his bare hands, and as he pawed, blood flowed from his fingers.

The remaining three male villagers were also shocked when they saw this scene. After a while, someone whispered:

"Brother Tie Niu's family has all died in this epidemic, and this grave was dug out by Brother Tie Niu..."

Alone, Lin Tieniu endured all the pain of parting from the death of his loved ones, and silently dug out the graves where his loved ones were buried.

But now, for the sake of the villagers who are still alive, he wants to dig out the bones of his relatives who have already rested in peace.

He is a reckless man who can't read, and he is an honest, honest and hardworking farmer, but he is not a person with a hard heart, he is just an ordinary person who is unwilling to say anything about his suffering.

Now, he can only silently strive for a greater hope of living for the survivors.

Lin Tieniu moved, and the villagers watched and started to move.

The guards got permission and also stepped forward to help.During this process, Wu Yu also asked Yun Xin to convey this matter to other villagers in the village.

I don't know what Yun Xin said, or someone tried to deal with it. In short, there are no villagers who protested fiercely like Lin Tieniu.

By noon, the bodies of those who died of the disease had all been dug up.

Lin Tieniu wiped the water from his face, and sat there in a daze, looking at the dug up corpses.

Because of the hot weather and fast decay, he couldn't even see their faces clearly, but he could still tell at a glance that the two skinny corpses on the far left had only a handful of bones left.

It is his father and mother.

He was born with a big appetite, but later encountered a drought, in order to make him full, his parents, despite their sick bodies, only drank a bowl of gruel every day, just to make him full.

It was only after he discovered that the food stock at home was not right. But at that time, his parents were already terminally ill, and they hadn't eaten a full meal until they died, so they looked so thin now.

They have been buried in the ground for nearly a month, and it is wrong to dig them out now to disturb their tranquility.But... If you don't do this, Xiaoshu Village may completely disappear into a barren forest in the near future.

"Girl, man, man, we have dug out, what to do next, you, tell me..."

Lin Tieniu's voice was choked with sobs, but when Wu Yu looked at it, he turned his face to the other side stiffly, unwilling to reveal a little vulnerability in front of outsiders.

Wu Yu actually didn't quite understand why the human race paid so much attention to the afterlife, but Lin Tieniu's pain, she felt a little bit close to her, and now she just nodded slightly:

"Thank you. Next...their bodies need to be burned."

When Wu Yu said this, he thought that Lin Tieniu would object fiercely, but he didn't expect that he just nodded silently, and even asked a few villagers to go back with him to pick up some dry firewood that had never seen water Come.

Wu Yu couldn't hold back, and stopped him:

"You, do you have anything to say?"

She thought he would object as fiercely as when digging the grave before. After all, in the eyes of these people, cremation is an act of great disrespect for the dead.

Lin Tieniu's generous background paused slightly:

"I know that the girl is for our village, that's enough."

After Lin Tieniu finished speaking, he went back to the village.

Because of the limited wood, the bodies of the twenty or so people who died were sent to the firewood pile for burning.

Lin Tieniu poured a bucket of tung oil on it, and opened the torch. For some reason, he shook his hand, and the torch fell directly on the pile of firewood, and the firewood doused with tung oil burst into flames.

It was raining continuously, the sky was overcast and low.The flame swallowed the corpse of the deceased, and the blazing flame seemed to burn a hole in the sky.

Wu Yu watched quietly on the spot holding an umbrella, and the guards also bowed their heads without saying a word, and the villagers couldn't hide their sadness in their eyes.

After the corpse was burned, Wu Yu also asked the guards to sprinkle the quicklime brought by the prince to disinfect the grave where the corpse was dug out, and then he was ready to go back to the village with everyone.

And just when everyone turned around to leave, Lin Tieniu suddenly rushed towards the place where the corpses were burned with sparks, and kowtowed fiercely on the spot several times.

Mars dyed and snapped a few strands of his hair, but he didn't seem to realize it.

It was raining all the time, and he couldn't even hold a handful of ashes in his hand.

Just like that, everything turned into a handful of ashes.

Wu Yu's heart is heavy, the so-called parting of life and death is like that.

Wu Yu managed to cheer up and went back to the village with a group of people. Because of the heavy rain last night, the villagers didn't guard the yard, but went back to their homes.

However, this sudden illness forced Mr. Wang to gather the villagers together again for diagnosis and treatment.

Under the guidance of Yun Xin, Wu Yu returned to the yard she entered on the first day. As soon as she entered the door, before the umbrella was closed, Mr. Wang hurriedly beckoned him over:

"Girl, come and take a look, these two women also have symptoms today, but I just watched..."

Before Wu Yu took a breather, he threw himself into the busy diagnosis again, which made Wu Yu, who used to be salty fish all day long, almost not so tired that he couldn't breathe.

New patients need to be diagnosed and take medication accordingly. Old patients also need to be followed up to make sure that the course of the disease has not accelerated. By the time Wu Yu finishes her work, it is already night.

The cause of the two women's illnesses has also been determined. They got infected after going to the small river beside the village to drink water.

The men in their family have already been sick. In order to treat them, they sold out everything they could sell, and they didn’t even have any water storage containers, so they had to go to the river to get water, but they didn’t want to be the water in the river. But it contains disease-causing germs.

……

Five days later, the house was covered behind the Yamen of the state government.

This is the fifth day's medicine that the magistrate drank. I don't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that he could sit up today.

The magistrate's wife looked at the magistrate's energetic appearance, hesitated to speak, but couldn't help frowning, sir, isn't it just a flashback?

However, after drinking the medicine, the magistrate had a big appetite for the first time, and after eating a bowl full of whole grains, he fell asleep again.

It's just that the wife of the magistrate who was sleeping this time was really terrified, but when the magistrate woke up again in the evening, the madam of the magistrate finally let go of the heart that had been tugging all the time. As soon as the heart let go, tears flowed out involuntarily.

"The medicine sent by Si Baylor seems to be really effective. In the past two days, my body has become much stronger!"

The magistrate successfully recovered his life, and he felt grateful for the rest of his life, but he was unwilling to show his weakness in front of his woman, so he just leaned on the bed and said unhurriedly:

"After all, he is also the elder brother sent by the emperor himself. It is no problem to cure a small disease!"

When Madam Zhifu heard this, she couldn't help but frowned slightly, remembering that she couldn't help but say:

"But I heard that this prescription was developed by the girl who came to us now. As for Jingzhong... I heard that even the emperor was suspected of being infected with the disease, and no one from Mantai Hospital sent it to us. Come……"

If there were more words, the magistrate's wife dared not say any more.

If the imperial doctor can't come, can't even the medicinal materials come?

It can only be said that the emperor angered them and the people here.

But no one could have imagined that the two places, which are obviously far apart, would have outbreaks of epidemics at the same time.

The prefect was also silent for a while after hearing the words of the prefect's wife:

"Don't mention this matter again in the future."

Whether it's anger, the emperor is really critically ill, or he's confused, these things must not be leaked out!

Besides, even if the emperor holds the entire Imperial Hospital in his hands, the person who can really figure out a solution is in their Chuzhou capital!

On that day, Yinzhen learned that the magistrate had obviously improved, and the tight string in his heart gradually loosened.

However, no one knows how many people in Chuzhou are infected with the disease.

While the government was doing epidemic prevention work, it also had to gather the people who were infected with the disease to distribute the curative decoction, and the decoction had to prevent people from doing bad things. He was so busy that he wanted to be divided into eight parts.

But this busyness makes people happy and joyful.

Because, they all have hope, they can all live.

As soon as he held the prescription in his hand, Yinzhen knew the plight of the capital, so he hurriedly sent a piece of the prescription back to the capital overnight, but he didn't know if Huang Ama would believe it.

However, Yinzhen at this moment has no time to think about these things.

Although Wu Yu from Xiaoshu Village said that she didn't have to take care of the people in the entire Chuzhou Prefecture, she was busy in Xiaoshu Village alone.

But fortunately, she brought Fujin and others with her when she came. Fujian helped him to coordinate the overall situation, Mrs. Li helped her prepare medicines every day, and Mrs. Song sang every day to make everyone relax. .

Soon, Xiaoshu Village's condition was brought under control.

On the tenth day, the first sick patient in Xiaoshu Village was completely cured. Standing in front of Wu Yu, he kowtowed fiercely at Wu Yu a few times in the cold hell:

"The girl is the living Bodhisattva who saves the suffering, and pulled so many of us out of the hands of Lord Yama! I have nothing to repay, so I can only kowtow to the girl first! And Mr. Wang, if it weren't for Mr. Wang, we Everyone in the village has died long ago, and I will kowtow to you too!"

Wu Yu and Wang Lao hurriedly helped him up, but the first smiles appeared on their faces for the first time these days.

"It's good, it's good, it's good!"

"Live well and live up to the hard work we have put in this time, that is the greatest reward!"

It's hard for Wu Yu to describe how she feels now. Seeing the sick patients jumping around under her hands, this kind of satisfaction is something she never experienced before she was transformed or in the first half of her life.

Thinking of this, Wu Yu's smile grew wider.

After the villagers in Xiaoshu Village were healed one by one, Fujin and the others finally had time to sit under the big tree at the head of the village and gossip.

In the past, such as the days when they had nothing to do and gossip, they spent day after day in the mansion, holding a backyard tea party every day as if it was a set procedure.

But they have never felt as comfortable as today when they are free to talk after finishing their work.

Probably because I know leisurely happiness after being busy.

Mrs. Li grabbed a handful of dried sweet potatoes made by the villagers, and took a big bite in a very inconspicuous manner.I am so busy these days that sometimes I don’t even have time to eat, so I rely on dried sweet potatoes to satisfy my hunger, but there is a disadvantage of eating too much dried sweet potatoes-farting.

"Tsk, I don't know how Sister Wu can work so hard. In the past, she enjoyed it better than all of us in the mansion!"

Li Shi said, as if he had noticed something, his face changed slightly.Then he glanced at Fujin and Song Shi, and soon the slightly changed face returned to normal, as if it wasn't her who changed the face just now.

But soon, Fujin and Song shi jumped up from the spot and glared at Li shi angrily.

Fu Jin was so angry that he didn't know what to say:

"You, you, Li Qiuwan! Do you still have some rules now?!"

The most important thing is that she knew about doing such indecent things in public, but she didn't remind them! !

Li pouted:

"It's as if I haven't eaten Fujin's farts these days. Everyone is the same. Isn't Fujin's farts still delicious?"

Fujin blushed so hard at what Li said, but couldn't utter a single word.

She also didn't expect that the life in the village these days has completely changed Li Shi, and completely ruined the image of Li Gege, who was still a bit squeamish.

Mrs. Song sat watching the two quarreling, but she didn't hold back, and covered her nose with a handkerchief.

The prince passing by the entrance of the village overheard the conversation of several people, and the expressions on his face were very colorful. After a while, he held his nose and ran away.

The fourth child is really a strange person!

The wives and concubines collected in this backyard are also "extraordinary"!
