At night, Jiang Chan quietly turned out of the city wall and went straight to the mountain outside Lin City. If you don't look at the two big burdens in her hand, it can be regarded as heroic and unrestrained.
Deep in the mountains.
"Dad, the children have blood tumors. What can we do? Are we just waiting to die?" a man said calmly. They have been driven to the depths of the mountain by the government for more than half a month.
At the beginning, only a dozen people in the village got this strange disease, but the government ordered to expel all the people in Shijia village into the mountain in order not to implicate the innocent. It meant to let them starve to death in the mountain.
Originally they were all healthy, but after being expelled into the mountain, they were all infected with the disease. A hundred and ten people from all over the village are about to die here.
At the thought of this, the man's eyes turned red, and the women had already sat aside with tears falling down. They put their arms around their children, and there was sadness in the cave.
On the stone slab of the cave lies an old man. Under his neck, there are large or small tumors on the exposed skin. This is the original head of Shijia village.
"Cough." Lao Shi coughed a few times. "Seeing that I can't live, is it difficult that our Shijia village has really been damned? I've lived for decades and have never heard of such a strange disease."
"God, if you want to send such a scourge, just come to us! Give the children a way to live!" an old woman cried with her little grandson in her arms. The child was only three years old and didn't know what to do.
"I know I don't have much time, and I don't want to delay you any more. It's all over..." the old village head took the firewood knife around his waist and was about to wipe his neck.
Suddenly, a small stone flew in from outside the cave and shot down the firewood knife in the old village head's hand. The old village head's arm was numb, and his half propped body fell heavily on the stone slab in the cave.
Jiang Chan came in with two big bags of medicinal materials. The oil lamp in the cave was very dim and looked vaguely at dozens of people. According to the feedback from the plants, half of the people are in another cave.
"Old village head, it's not a good choice to die at this time." put down the medicine in her hand, and Jiang Chan shook her arm: "are the relatives of iron egg and iron baby here?"
"Yes, we are iron egg and iron baby's family. I'm his father." the village head's son hurriedly came forward: "great Xia Xiao said he wanted to take iron egg and iron baby, didn't they..."
The man looked at Jiang Chan with hopeful eyes. Is his son saved?
Jiang Chan looked at him and determined that he was indeed a relative of Tiedan and Tiewa. She raised her eyebrows: "the two children are very good. The disease has been cured."
"Great, great, nvxia! Please help us! Our family is old and young. The children are only two or three years old. Please give us a way to live!"
The man flopped and knelt in front of Jiang Chan. He banged and kowtowed to Jiang Chan. Jiang Chan looked hurt.
She pulled the man up: "don't give me such a big gift. I came here for this. Let me take your pulse first? Let's see your condition?"
The old village head coughed twice: "girl, this disease will be contagious, and we don't want to trouble you..."
Looking at the tough old village head, Jiang Chan's eyes couldn't help but float a trace of respect. She sat down by the stone bed and put her hand on the pulse of the old village head: "nothing. Since I dare to come, I must be fully prepared."
Seeing that Jiang Chan felt the pulse for the old village head, the cave was silent. Everyone stared at Jiang Chan, hoping that she could give a positive answer.
After carefully checking the pulse of the old village head, Jiang Chan finally took back her hand. She thought for a while: "although it's a little tricky, it can be cured. It took me a week for iron egg and iron baby, and you should take about a week."
Iron baby father hesitated: "aren't we more serious?"
Jiang Chan raised her eyebrow: "we didn't understand the cause of the disease before, so we need to test everything. Now I have figured it out. It's faster to apply the right medicine to the case."
"It's a little late today. I will treat you officially tomorrow morning. According to the news I just heard, I obviously don't bring enough herbs. During this period, I have to go to Lincheng to buy Herbs."
Listening to Jiang Chan planning his future life, the old tears of the old village head were turbid. He trembled and saluted Jiang Chan: "the girl has the grace of life for our Shijia village. Our family can't repay you even if we are cattle and horses."
Jiang Chan leaned slightly. She couldn't stand such an old man saluting her.
"Old man, I didn't do this to get your reward. I just thought, if someone could give me a way to live, how good would it be?"
"Relax, I know your situation. I promise that all of you will be healthy in less than half a month, and you will be able to walk out of these mountains in a dignified manner in the future."
The old village head shook his head: "even if we walk out of this mountain, the forest city has no place for us. In the government, Shijia village no longer exists."
Jiang Chan thought: "then wait until you all recover. As long as you have life, where can't you live?"
After a pause, Jiang Chan continued: "if you really can't stay in Lincheng, you can also choose to go to Yuncheng. I think I can still protect you. These things will be discussed after you completely recover."
After entering the first days of Jin Dynasty, Jiang Chan basically did not invade the cold and heat. At night, she meditated and rested on the big tree outside the cave. During the day, she treated the villagers. During this period, she went to Lincheng several times. Each time, she purchased a large number of medicinal materials, and then went out of the city quietly at night.
Compared with her, the changes of the villagers in Shijia village are the biggest. The original silence and despair were gone, and their faces were full of hope.
The children with mild symptoms have basically recovered. There are 30 children here, the oldest is 16 years old and the youngest is only two or three years old. Those who are a little calm will fight behind Jiang Chan. Sometimes Jiang Chan will explain medical theory to them.
In his spare time, he instructed the children to practice martial arts. Seeing that Jiang Chan came and went without a trace every day, these children all admired him very much. Therefore, when Jiang Chan taught martial arts, they all studied very seriously.
Watching the children study hard, Jiang Chan smiled and said, "the Xiao family has a medical department and a martial arts department. If you are interested, you can naturally go to the Xiao family to learn arts after you get out of the mountain."
After the children recovered, the old village head, after consulting the whole village, decided to go to Yuncheng with Jiang Chan after everyone recovered. In the future, they will be sheltered by the Xiao family.
