Chapter 39
"I don't know what's going on, but my lord's complexion doesn't seem very good. Don't forget to speak carefully to Mr. Xiang later!" This yamen servant is in charge of running errands on weekdays, and Xiang Hetang will take care of him from time to time, and he will often reveal some news Come out, for example, if there are any new laws or regulations issued by the town, or any reforms issued by the higher authorities, Xiang Hetang will always be notified as soon as possible!
Hearing that the yamen servant didn't know, Xiang Lao thought to himself!

Mr. Xu outside the county government office was waiting at the gate of the county government office early, and when he saw the visitor from a distance, he went up to greet him in person. Such enthusiasm made Mr. Xiang even more uneasy!
The two chatted happily and walked into the county government office, but after entering the lobby, the smile on Mr. Xu's face gradually disappeared, and all the government officials were sent to guard the gate by him.

Seeing the situation, Mr. Xiang put away his smile, but it was a long time since the other party spoke, so he couldn't help but ask, "Master Xu is so anxious to let the old man come over, but what's the matter?"

Mr. Xu didn't know how to say it, but now he listened to the other party asking first, he looked at Xiang Lao for a long time, and finally made up his mind to say, "As the elder of the first pharmacist in Anyue Town, did you find out in the past few days?" How is Anyue different?"

"Your Excellency, it's not that I don't know. I'm old and old, and I've almost left all the big and small things to my son Qingyang. My lord asks, is it possible that something happened in the town?" Master Xu's words like fog and dreams made Xiang Laogen guess Not sure why, so I had to answer cautiously.

After he finished speaking, he quickly looked up, and he simply didn't see the anger on the other party's face, so he was relieved.

Mr. Xu was all focused on that matter in his heart, how could he see that Xiang Lao was worried, seeing that the prelude said that Xiang Lao didn't know anything, he couldn't help but tried again, "Last time the heavy rain washed away a lot of things. Many people died in the village, some of the remaining refugees came to Anyue, and the rest settled in other villages. I was worried that the people also sent many people to help, but I heard that many refugees moved I feel a little unwell after leaving the residence..."

"My lord's concern for the country and the people is really a blessing for us. The refugees are definitely grateful to be taken care of by the lord. It's just that their homes are destroyed and it's normal to feel unwell. It's a pity that everyone doesn't know what the lord has done, otherwise..."

"Xiang Lao, don't flatter me at this time!" Normally, Mr. Xu would laugh happily at this compliment, but now he doesn't even have the patience to listen to it, so he plans to say to the old man, " Elder Xiang, don't you really understand what I mean?"

Xiang Laozheng was curious about his abnormality, and couldn't help but feel a sudden shock when he heard this sentence because he really didn't understand the meaning of these words!
Seeing that the face of the person opposite was getting worse and worse, Xiang Laoye finally got into trouble, and asked directly if he couldn't figure it out, "Sir, let's just say it directly, I really don't understand what you mean!"

Master Xu sighed, and suddenly looked at him seriously, "I just said that some of the refugees are in the neighboring villages of the town, and many of them are feeling unwell. This morning, the official sent a doctor there, and he just came back..."

"Your Excellency means..." Guessing something in his heart, Xiang Lao's usually calm face collapsed, and he secretly thought that it was not what he guessed, but Master Xu's serious expression was not the same, and his answer afterward was even more serious. Scattering all his happiness, "It's the plague!"

Shaking to the old body, his face began to turn pale, the disease...

The kind of infectious disease that has only appeared in other places but never experienced it with his own eyes, unexpectedly appeared beside him, Xiang Lao's hand holding the crutch turned white, and suddenly he didn't know what to say at this moment!
Although the Xiang family has been a doctor for a long time, they have never cured the disease, and it is said that another generation almost lost their children because of the disease. Is this disaster going to befall their generation now?

"Xiang Lao?" Master Xu yelled several times before the other party came back to his senses. Now that the words have been spoken, there is nothing to hide. Master Xu expressed his worry, "Your Xiang family has the best medical skills in this town. , the matter of the epidemic has not been disclosed to the public for the time being, and I am also worried that the news will disturb the hearts of the people, so please come over and see if there is any way to do it?"

After talking about this, if you don't understand the meaning of asking yourself to come, Xiang Lao has lived in vain for so many years, but if it is an ordinary matter, he can still shirk it. Now that the whole Anyue Town is in danger, it is obvious that he cannot refuse, Xiang The old man had no choice but to bow his head and respond, "I will ask someone to go and have a look again, I hope it is not what the adults said, otherwise the epidemic... I can't do anything about it!"

Master Xu nodded, but he was surprisingly relieved. Although he didn't really believe that the epidemic would be solved easily, he naively gave him some hope!
It is said that Xiang Lao left the county office and returned to Xiang He Tang, and immediately ordered the door to be closed for rest. On this day, all senior doctors in Xiang He Tang were summoned together. No one knew what happened, only that the atmosphere became tense!
A few more layers of dark clouds floated in the sky. Although it hasn't continued to rain since the last heavy rain, it still made many people who saw it nervous. I pray that it won't rain again!

Gu Xi came out of the space and walked out of the yard as usual. Gu Mu went out early in the morning. Gu Xi told her to buy some rice yesterday. Now the outside is too chaotic. Gu Xi is afraid that it will be unsafe for her to go out too often!

Gu Xi glanced at Father Gu's room and found that the door was closed tightly. In the past, Father Gu had already woken up at this time. Thinking that Father Gu rarely snoozes, Gu Xi didn't bother him. He just thought of the other person in the room and couldn't help feeling it carefully. Next, I found that he was also in the room, but he didn't look like he was sleeping!

I really don't understand what's the point of staying in the room every day!
She has been at home for the past few days and she can clearly see that the man hardly talks to the family except for necessary conversations, but usually when Mother Gu has some work to do, she will suddenly show up to help, and she will go back to the room as soon as the work is done, so that As for the past few days, Gu Xi hardly saw him once, so he never asked when he was leaving!

Just to make his wounds heal earlier, she specially refined a few pills a few days ago, and gave them to him when her family didn't pay attention, it should work now!

Just as she was about to leave, there was a sudden loud noise from Father Gu's room, like the sound of something falling to the ground, which inexplicably made Gu Xi's heart tighten, and the next moment she quickly pushed the door open and walked in!

As soon as he entered the room, Gu Xi was startled by the scene in front of him. Father Gu was lying on the ground pale and his previously broken hand was covering his heart at this moment, and there was still a trace of blood on the corner of his light blue mouth!
Just as Gu Xi entered the door, another person in the room also walked over quickly, and actually helped the old man up one step earlier than Gu Xi. Gu Xi ignored him and helped put Father Gu on the bed while giving him a pulse Feel the pulse for Father Gu!

The people next to him also looked at him following Gu Xi's movements, and a little worry appeared in those waveless eyes, but it was too inconspicuous and Gu Xi didn't look at him at all, so no one saw him.His eyes stayed on Gu Xi's hand on Gu's father's wrist, and he remembered that he had his pulse felt like this not long ago, and he couldn't help but recall the feeling at that time!

At this time, Gu Xi had already finished his pulse and was just laying Gu's father's arm flat, although his face was not as anxious as before, but his brows were full of worry.She has always understood that her father and mother are not in good health, and she has always said to help the two old people heal, but she always wants to give her father and mother the best so she procrastinated until now, but she did not expect that the condition would suddenly worsen!
Recalling the alternation of hot and cold in the past few days, Guxi guessed that the extremely abnormal weather should be the reason for the aggravation!

Putting the thin blanket on the bed on Gu's father's abdomen, Gu Xi got up and was about to leave, but the people behind her also followed her, Gu Xi immediately looked back, with obvious impatience in his eyes, "Don't follow me!"

With a cold shout, he managed to stop the opponent's footsteps, Gu Xi left the person standing at the door, and left faster!

When she left, the person behind her silently turned around and stood still in front of Father Gu's bed!Like a persistent warrior!

Gu Xi went back to the room and entered the space. Father Gu fell ill suddenly, so she had to use elixir to stabilize it first, but although it takes time to make alchemy with herbs, there is only a quick fix at the moment!

What Gu Xi wanted to refine was a lung-clearing elixir. The origin of Gu’s father’s long-standing old illness was infection and complications caused by tuberculosis. Acupuncture and moxibustion radical cure, now it seems that we can only change the plan!

Quickly turn on the furnace, put herbs, gather spiritual energy, because the quantity is small, Guxi pushes the spiritual energy without hesitation, the rich spiritual energy forms an airflow and gathers around the Danding, and the herbs begin to gather and condense in the inner box where Guxi can't see...

In less than a quarter of an hour, Dan Ding made a crisp sound of 'ding', Gu Xi's ears moved slightly, and the next moment he retracted his hands, and then took out the elixir!

The four pill beads are round and slippery. Gu Xi took out one and put it in her palm to go out. Just in time, she heard someone shouting from outside. As soon as she grasped her palm, the man had already fled back to the room. As soon as she opened the curtain and went out, she saw her sister-in-law crying Running in, Gu Xi's eyes widened and he quickly stepped forward to help Lu Xiang who almost fell down.

Seeing Gu Xi as if she saw a savior, Lu Xiang grasped her hand tightly along with her, tears in her eyes never stopped, after repeated questioning by Gu Xi, she finally told the whole story!
And the result turned out to be - the mother of grain is gone!

It turned out that early in the morning, Lu Xiang saw her son and grandpa sleeping soundly, so she decided to follow her mother-in-law to the street to buy rice. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law seldom went to the street. This big and small bag has long attracted some people to peep.

Almost when she turned around, Lu Xiang suddenly found that her mother-in-law was gone, and all the things she bought just now were on Gu Mu. At first, Lu Xiang thought that Gu Mu was resting when she was tired, but after searching for a long time, she could not find Gu Mu. Only then did Ying realize the seriousness of the matter, and hurried home!

That is to say, when I saw my sister-in-law, I could no longer hold on to my strength and burst into tears!
"Xiaoxi, do you think mother will be fine! It's all my fault for not being with her, or now..." Lu Xiang blamed herself so much that she choked up after saying a word!
"Don't worry, mother will be fine!" God knows that Gu Xi's heart has already been twitched, but in front of this fragile sister-in-law, she can only pretend to be indifferent. The family has unconsciously pinned their hopes on her, so She can't even show any panic!

"Well, mother will be fine! Xiaoxi, let's look for it again, maybe mother is on the street, maybe I didn't see clearly!" Lu Xiang seemed to grasp some hope, holding the little girl with both hands Arm, tone with Xi Yi!

Gu Xi glanced at the elixir in his hand, and at his sister-in-law's red and swollen eyes, knowing that things might not be as simple as they said, but still nodded, "Mom, I'll just go find it, you can take care of dad at home! He Just passed out!"

"Father, he's in a coma, did you see a doctor?" Before recovering from Gu Mu's disappearance, and hearing that Gu's father was in a coma, Lu Xiang didn't know what to do, Gu Xi suddenly regretted telling her , but since I said it, I have to comfort him, "This is the elixir I bought just now, and it was made by a trusted doctor. You go feed your father and take it, and then stay at home. I will go to the street to find my mother!"

"But..." Lu Xiang looked at the elixir handed over by her sister-in-law, and was a little worried when she heard that she was going out.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon, no one will hurt me!" Gu Xi had no choice but to promise again!
Seeing her sister-in-law off to Father Gu's room with her own eyes, Gu Xi couldn't bear it any longer and ran out of the house quickly. She thought of countless possibilities in her heart along the way, but she dared not think about the bad ones!

Ever since there were refugees and people everywhere on the street, Gu Xi didn't believe that Gu Mu would disappear out of thin air, so when she came to the street mentioned by Lu Xiang, she first went to a nearby remote intersection to search for it. The result is still nothing!
