Medicine field space, another world goddess doctor

Chapter 40
Finally, when she saw those sallow and thin people lying on their backs by the side of the road, her eyes lit up and she had an idea!
There was a sudden chaos on the lifeless street, a large group of people in ragged clothes rushed to the same place, they didn't know what they were going to do, but they heard an extremely clear voice in the noise, "...as long as If you tell me some useful news, I will give you a steamed bun, whoever is the first to tell me who took that lady away just now!"

Standing among a group of refugees, although Gu Xi was short in stature, she had an imposing manner that could not be ignored. She knew that these people were hungry, so she used this to buy a bunch of steamed buns and offered to exchange the steamed buns for what they saw just now. Sure enough, she As soon as the words were finished, many people came up!

"Let me talk first! It's the short woman in the brown dress, right? I saw her, she was taken away by a group of people like us!" A thin man squeezed forward After Gu Xi asked and told what he knew, Gu Xi took out a steamed bun from the bag as promised and handed it over!

"I saw it too, those people are going west!"

"And me, I've seen one of those people from Taogu Village!"

Gu Xi's expression seemed to be pleasantly surprised to get the news of Gu Mu, but her heart was already burning with anger. This group of people obviously didn't make a sound when her sister-in-law asked fifteen minutes ago, but when she tempted her with steamed buns, they told them all. Not one person saw it, but no one was willing to help!

While she loathes these people, she is even more angry with those who dared to take Gu Mu away, Tao Gu Village?
There were far more people who came up to grab the steamed buns than exchanged them. Originally, Gu Xi felt sorry for them, but after the incident with Gu Mu, these faces made her extremely disgusted. She deliberately let go of the bag, then quickly backed away, and saw a bag of steamed buns It landed on the ground, and a group of people rushed to grab it the next moment, and it was inevitable that someone would fight for it!
This is the coldness of human nature. Gu Xi watched a group of people beating and kicking with cold eyes, and she left indifferently!

The county magistrate Xu in the county yamen just breathed a sigh of relief because of the epidemic. Not long after he sat down, he heard the sound of gongs and drums.
Not long after the yamen servant came back, because the drumming suddenly did not openly promote the court, the yamen servant directly led the person to the court.

"Little girl, were you playing the drum just now?"

Master Xu's originally impatient face softened a lot when he saw that it was a child who was ushered in. He waved his hand to let the servants step aside, walked over by himself, and looked at the little girl in front of him!

The yamen servant kept giving Gu Xi winks to make her kneel down, but Gu Xi didn't mean to kneel down casually, so she just pretended not to see it, and when she heard the county magistrate's question, she slightly He lowered his head, "I knocked it!"

"Oh? Then what do you mean by beating the drum?" Seeing that the little girl's face was neither humble nor overbearing and mature, she didn't look like a child, Mr. Xu couldn't help being interested.

But Gu Xi was too lazy to make a detour, and simply cupped his hands and said, "There is something that you need to ask the adults to decide! Today my sister-in-law and mother went to the street to buy rice grains, and when they went to a remote street, my mother suddenly disappeared. After searching, I found out that she was killed by someone. Someone kidnapped me, and someone saw that it was the villagers of Taogu Village who kidnapped my mother!"

"You said... Taogu Village!?"

Gu Xi didn't notice the face of the person opposite when she said the word 'Tao Gu Village'. On the contrary, it was Gu Mu's disappearance that disturbed her, "Please order the leader to Tao Gu Village to rescue my mother relative!"

"No!" Unexpectedly, just after she finished speaking, the other party had already refused, "You can't go to Taogu Village! Little girl, you should go back quickly, as for your mother, the official will find a way to investigate her whereabouts!"

"Investigate?" Gu Xi looked at him suspiciously, "I've made it very clear just now that someone from Taogu Village kidnapped my mother with their own eyes, so why do you need to investigate again?"

It's just that Mr. Xu didn't listen to her anymore, he just waved his hand and urged her to go home quickly!
Obviously he was very enthusiastic just now, but in a blink of an eye he avoided her like a snake and a scorpion. Gu Xi recalled what he said just now, and finally realized that it was probably "Tao Gu Village" that made him change.

Since she came here just to be able to lead people to rescue Gu Mu in a fair manner, it is absolutely impossible to let her go for nothing!
Compared with Master Xu's evasion, Gu Xi simply spoke clearly, "Your Excellency, you don't need to perfuse me like this. If it is because of Taogu Village that it is inconvenient for you to send someone, then please give me a copy of the order, and I can find someone by myself!"

It was the first time that a little girl said this. Master Xu smiled angrily and at the same time, he couldn't bear to let a little girl go to her death. After hesitating for a moment, he finally revealed some inside information, "It's not that I won't give you the handwritten order, it's just that Taogu Village ...Taogu Village is no longer a good place, little girl, why would you put yourself in danger?"

Not a good place?

The more vague the other party said, the more Guxi wanted to know, she looked straight at the other party with a firm expression, "I appreciate your kindness, but it is my mother who is missing at this moment. You, even if there is a den of wolves and tigers, you will go to save your mother, won't you?"

I thought it was just a weak little girl, but I didn't expect such sharp teeth and sharp mouth to even give his mother an example. This time Master Xu really laughed, but he saw the little girl staring at her. He paused for a moment, and finally told the truth, "Originally, this matter was not announced to the public, but I insisted on this, and I will tell you the truth. Then Taogu Village is really not allowed, and I have already obtained According to the news, someone is infected with the disease, so not only you can’t go in, but others can’t come out either.”

blight! ?
It was as if a thunderbolt fell in the air, catching Gu Xi by surprise!
Master Xu saw the little girl's face turn pale suddenly, and he couldn't bear it, "I see that you are a filial girl, but Taogu Village is really dangerous. Although I have asked people to go to review again, the result may not change much. Since ancient times, when a disease breaks out, tens of thousands of people die, maybe this time even our Anyue Town..."

Said that in the end Master Xu was silent, he had never dared to think about it before, but now he told the thing he was most afraid of in order to persuade the little girl.Like everyone else, he also has a wife and a mother. If any disaster were to hit Anyue Town this time, he might not be able to escape!
"My lord, please give me a handbook!" The firm voice still sounded.

"What did you say?" Master Xu thought he had heard it wrong, obviously he had already said that someone in Taogu Village had the disease, how could this little girl still know what was going on?He wanted to continue to dissuade him, but when he looked up, he found that the little girl was looking at him with unwavering eyes, and the firmness in those eyes made him speechless.

The yamen servant next to him was also very surprised. There were no people who didn't yell when they heard the epidemic these days, and there was even one who delivered it to their door automatically. Although they knew that the little girl was trying to save their mother, but they saw It is indeed the rhythm of sending death in vain!
In the end, Master Xu couldn't stand Gu Xi's insistence, and with a wave of his hand, he wrote down a search order, with a crimson official seal on it!
Gu Xi received the letter and thanked her before leaving. Although she was stubborn, she could see that this lord is not a bad person. At least he would disclose this information that should not be disclosed in order to dissuade her!
Master Xu looked at Xiao Pao's leaving figure, shook his head and sighed, and was about to turn around when he suddenly remembered something and cried out in shock, "Oh, I forgot to tell her not to spread the news about the epidemic, Xiao Wu, hurry up and catch up with her." !"

The yamen servant named Xiao Wu was the one who had been waiting by the side just now. Hearing the orders from the adults, he trotted away immediately. I thought the little girl was walking in a hurry, but when he walked outside the gate of the mansion, she was gone. In desperation, he had no choice but to go back and report the matter!

"Missing?" Master Xu thought when he heard the news. Although the little girl looks more mature than the average child, she is still a child after all. How can she be expected to understand what it means to take care of the overall situation? She won't say it casually right?

Mr. Xu was so anxious that he panicked completely. He walked back and forth a few times and still couldn't suppress his uneasiness. Finally, he decided to let Xiao Wu take a few people to Taogu Village to try his luck, hoping that the little girl would not go so fast!

Guxi didn't go directly to Taogu Village, but went home first with that handwritten letter!
At Gu's house, after Lu Xiang fed Gu's father the pill left by Gu Xi, Gu's father's face improved a lot, but the news of Gu's mother's disappearance was always on Lu Xiang's heart, and she didn't tell others. Beside Gu's father, he was always restless, and kept looking at the door frequently!

There was a figure standing behind her all the time, clearly seeing Lu Xiang's uneasiness, she wanted to speak a few times but closed her mouth after thinking of something, and finally just stood quietly aside!
'Bang bang bang' the door was knocked, Lu Xiang almost subconsciously ran out of the room to open the door, but when the door opened and only Gu Xi appeared, the disappointment in her eyes couldn't be concealed!
Seeing the anxiety in her sister-in-law's eyes, Gu Xi knew that she must be worried all the time, so she couldn't help saying, "I already know where mother is, and I will bring mother back later!"

"Really? Mom, where did she go?" Lu Xiang was pleasantly surprised when she heard that, and then continued to ask.How could Gu Xi tell her the truth, but just shook her head mysteriously, "Mother is safe, I'll come back first and tell you and pick her up later!"

What Gu Xi said was very easy, when Gu Mu was really in a very safe place, and Lu Xiang actually believed it!

Before leaving, Gu Xi explained again worriedly, "Remember to close the door tightly after I leave. Don't open the door if you are not acquainted. Now there are refugees everywhere outside, and there is no one at home. Don't worry me!"

Hearing that my sister-in-law cared so much about her, Lu Xiang's eyes turned red, and she repeatedly promised to take good care of her family. Gu Xi just let her go back to her room, and watched her lock the door before leaving!

There is only one road leading to Taogu Village. It is located in the south of Anyue Town.
And when you walk forward, you will see more people in front of you. There are more or less people lying on the side of the path or in the grass next to it. I don’t know if they are sleeping or fainted from hunger. ignore!
It stands to reason that in a remote place like Gu Xi's clean-dressed child, it is easy to attract bad guys to covet her, but often after people take a second look at her, they will find that this little girl is different!
Although they saw her walking slowly in small steps with their own eyes, few people saw her face clearly, because every time they looked at her, their eyes would be in a trance, and when they looked again, the figure was actually It was far away, so after someone noticed this weird scene, they just took a look and stopped thinking about it!

Xiao Wu Deling and four or five brothers were waiting on the road to Taogu Village, when they saw a figure running from a distance, they all stood up straight, but when the man approached, they found that it was just a short man, feeling a little disappointed, They have been waiting in the sun for two quarters of an hour, I don't know if they missed it!

"Are you from the yamen?" The person who was almost mistaken for what he was looking for turned out to be wrong and didn't ignore it, but at this moment he looked at the clothes of several people and burst into joy.

"We are from Yali, are you?"

"That's great!" When the other party admitted, the little boy was actually Xiao Wu who grabbed onto his mouth, "At first I thought it was hopeless, but now I meet someone in the yamen, it's really great!"

Thanks to Xiao Wu's good quality, he didn't throw the person who grabbed his arm away, but he didn't understand the surprise in his mouth.

"You may not know me, but I'm actually the servant next to the second young master of the Xie family in the town. You can call me Xiao Zhuzi!" Xiao Zhuzi seemed to have found a savior, and he declared his family name without asking the other party, and then Talking about why he was here, he even choked up, "Woooo...it's all my fault. I went back to the mansion for something, and finally went to the shop and found that the young master had left with someone. After asking a lot, I found out that I went to Taogu Village, but I heard someone It is said that Taogu Village is in a panic now, several people have been bitten, I don’t know if they are crazy or something!”
