Need for Highness, Enchanting Concubine

Chapter 141 Finding a Way (2)
"Among the more than 20 people who died of illness before, did any of them have any children?" Leng Xiwu asked solemnly again.

"No!" The village chief also became a little confused.

It stands to reason that during a plague, children are the weakest in resistance, but those children in the village are healthier than each other, and there is really no sign of disease at all, which is really unreasonable.

The more Leng Xiwu thought about it, the more wrong she became, "What about the woman?"

"It seems that there are only three!"

"How old are you?"

"Probably only around thirty!" The village chief recalled.

Speaking of this, Leng Xiwu couldn't sit still anymore, got up in a hurry, and ran into the house again.

"Little doctor, you haven't eaten yet!" The village head hadn't finished shouting, and the green clothes had long since disappeared, leaving only the bitten rice.

The village head couldn't care less, and got up and went into the house.

When Leng Xiwu ran to the innermost room, another patient happened to be ill, trembling all over, in great pain, even taking medicine and acupoint acupuncture did not help, Ye Wuyou and Murong Lianqi could only suppress him first , the others are helpless.

Seeing this situation, Leng Xiwu took the silver needle soft bag from her cuff, and then took out a small medicine bottle from her waist, stepped forward quickly, poured out a pill, and stuffed it into the man's mouth , with a smooth throat, the pill was swallowed into the man's stomach, and then the gold needles were pierced into the man's middle finger respectively, and blood dripped down along with the silver needles, which should have been bright red blood Gradually it turned dark red, and the man's condition seemed to have stabilized a bit.

"How could this be?" Murong Lianqi asked with a frown.

Leng Xiwu clearly tested these patients before, they should not be poisoned, how did it become like this now?
Ye Wuyou asked, "What did you feed him just now?"

Leng Xiwu replied: "A pill that can temporarily suppress the spread of poison in the body!"

The village head ran in just now, and when he heard Leng Xiwu's words, he said in disbelief, "Poisoned?"

Leng Xiwu nodded, "I wasn't sure at first, and I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect it to actually work!"

"You said they were poisoned?" Murong Lianqi also asked with wide eyes.

"Don't you find it strange?" Leng Xiwu asked back.

Everyone didn't understand: "What's so strange?"

Ye Wuyou twitched her lips and said, "Most of the patients here are men, and they are all in their early twenties to around fifty."

"What's so strange about this, there are more men than women in our village!" A villager said.

"The most important thing is children under the age of [-]!" Ye Wuyou added again.

Leng Xiwu smiled lightly at Ye Wuyou: "It seems that Mr. Ye is a careful person!"

"What do you mean?" Murong Lianqi was also a little stunned.

"The water in this village has been checked and there is no problem, right?" Leng Xiwu asked everyone.

The crowd nodded.

Leng Xiwu shook her head, and said resolutely: "There is no problem now, but it doesn't mean there was no problem before!"

"What do you mean, little doctor?" The village head asked suspiciously.

"I'll tell you all about it after I go to the upper reaches of the stream and spring!" Leng Xiwu took back the silver needle, and then wanted to leave.

Murong Lianqi said, "I'll go with you!"

Leng Xiwu did not refuse.

Ye Wuyou tugged on Murong Lianqi's sleeve and said: "You know some medical skills anyway, the doctor is gone, you should stay, let me go with the little brother!"

Although he was unhappy, Ye Wuyou's words were indeed reasonable, Murong Lianqi thought about it, so he had no choice but to backtrack and stay here.

In the blink of an eye, Leng Xiwu had already walked out of the room, and Ye Wuyou followed lazily.

The villagers are all confused, and we can only wait for the little doctor to come back.

The uppermost stream of Xiquan is neither high nor low, but within the footsteps of Leng Xiwu and Ye Wuyou, it didn't take long to arrive.

"What did you think of?"

After arriving upstream, Ye Wuyou asked softly.

Leng Xiwu lowered her head and replied as she walked: "I'm not sure, but I heard about a kind of strange grass that my father said, that kind of grass grows like orchid leaves, and in spring, it will bloom smaller There are similar flowers, and the flowering period can last for more than half a month."

"That grass is poisonous?" After hearing Leng Xiwu's description, Ye Wuyou also began to look down.

"no!"

"Are those flowers poisonous?"

Leng Xiwu replied patiently: "It can be said to be poisonous, or it can be said to be non-toxic. It doesn't matter if you touch the flower or even eat it. At most, you will be dizzy for a few days. It has a threatening effect, but if the flower meets wine, it will become a slow poison that can kill people."

Ye Wuyou immediately understood: "In spring, the flowers bloom and the pollen falls into the stream water. It's not a big problem to drink the stream water at that time, but the villagers here have the custom of brewing wine. It happens to be that season. The stream water mixed with pollen is used to make wine. During the fermentation process of the wine, the toxicity of the pollen is slowly stimulated. Half a year later, the villagers began to drink the wine brewed in spring. From that moment on, they have been poisoned!"

Regarding Ye Wuyou's intelligence, Leng Xiwu didn't feel any difference, her husband, of course, was not that bad.

"Although drinking alcohol is a folk custom here, the elders do not allow underage children to drink alcohol, and women, the elderly, and those with weak bodies rarely drink alcohol, so the chances of poisoning are not high for such people, even if they are Take a sip once in a while, and the symptoms won't be obvious!" Leng Xiwu continued.

The young men who drank the most were naturally the first to experience toxicity.

If there is only one person with such symptoms, the imperial physician will certainly investigate.

But all of a sudden, one after another, the villagers had the same symptoms, and they would panic and think that it was an infectious disease, and when they were frightened, they no longer had the time to think about it.

"I found it, look!"

Ye Wuyou pointed at a large piece of "grass" that looked like orchid leaves, and called out to Leng Xiwu.

Leng Xiwu pointed to her indifferently, they were all the same "grass".

"Am I happy for you!"

His Highness was despised when he was excited.

Leng Xiwu squatted down and looked at the grass carefully.

Ye Wuyou hurriedly flew to her side, afraid that something might happen to her.

"Don't worry, it's fine!" Leng Xiwu comforted.

In the past, Leng Xiwu must have been too lazy to explain, but now she doesn't even realize that the older she is, the more she cares about the thoughts of the person beside her.
