Don't panic, the family boss is busy farming

Chapter 135 Experiment
"By the way, is cousin back?" Xu Da suddenly asked with concern.

Gongsun Yu was still digesting the huge amount of information revealed in Xu Da's eyes just now, and swallowed hard, unable to answer for a while.

It was Mrs. Xu who replied: "Last night, there were people in the city suffering from epidemics one after another. Your cousin found an acquaintance last night, opened the city gate and quietly came back."

He was about to tell Xu Damo not to speak up, after all, Gongsun An is an official, and it would be harmful to his reputation to spread the news of running away.

No, before she had time to remind her, Xu Dan nodded and said:
"My elder brother passed away. My uncle has no other adult heirs in his family. My cousin came back in time to help with the cooking. This is very good. I respect my elder brother and be filial to my elders."

In Xu Da's view, Gongsun Yue died at the right time, leaving a way for his cousin to survive.

Hearing this, Xu was stunned. Is Xu Da hinting at what they are going to do?

Speaking of which, the city is at a critical time right now. As an official, his son not only fails to lead by example, but also sneaks home in fear of death. All gone.

Therefore, there is no better reason than what Xu Da said.

Before today, Gongsun Yu and Xu Shi never thought about using the dead as a shield.

Seeing their son run away and come back suddenly last night, the couple were thinking about how to find an excuse for him, ask for sick leave or something else, they didn't think about Gongsun Yue's death at all.

Now hearing what Xu Da said, the couple looked at each other, and both saw the shock in each other's eyes.

A door to a new world was forcibly pushed in front of Xu Da, and it was the first time that the two people who had been honest and responsible for a lifetime felt the beating of the heart in their chests so clearly.

It was as if something was breaking through the previous confinement and flying out.

"Gulu~" Gongsun Yu swallowed hard, and finally recovered his voice from this adrenaline rush.

"I'm afraid there are people infected with the epidemic everywhere in the mansion. An'er, he will go there. What if he is infected?"

Xu laughed loudly, "Don't we have an antidote? Prepare more, rather more than less."

"Also, a friend in adversity sees a true friendship, and if we don't share adversity, how can we see a true friendship?"

Now everyone is afraid of the plague and dare not approach the second room. If Gongsun An passes by, no matter what he did, whether he did it well or not, as long as he is not blind, he will know who is sincere and who is not.

Anyway, it all depends on the background of the peers.

Xu Da has no hope for Gongsun An's brain, as long as he can be himself.

After again telling the aunt's family to prepare more herbs for the antidote, Xu Da left.

The tofu business of the Xu family was suspended, and there was no way to keep it going. When Xu Yue fell ill, the family members focused on her and could not take care of the mill.

Secondly, there was a lot of noise about the plague. Knowing that Xu Yue was sick, who would dare to approach Xu's house?

It's fine if you don't come to make trouble.

Now only Wang Dayou's family next door and He Zeng, who is single and fearless, are in contact with Xu Yue's family.

However, both of them were arranged by Xu Da to find an open space to build a firewood pile. After all, there were still many corpses to be burned.

Xu Yue was still not fully recovered. She was leaning on the kang and holding the medicine her sister had warmed up. While drinking, she looked through the open window at A Niang and her elder brother who were preparing for the test in the yard.

Her current physical condition is still unable to enter the laboratory to get the test equipment inside, and the black blood epidemic is raging again, the slaves may die at any time, leaving them with little time left.

So after discussing with her brother, A Niang decided to continue to test whether his blood has the effect of defeating the virus.

Mrs. Wang took a small bowl of Xu Dalang's blood. As soon as the knife was cut open, the wound on his palm began to coagulate automatically after a while.

After another 5 minutes or so, the wound disappeared, and there was only a light white mark, reminding everyone that there was a wound here.

Such self-healing ability, Xu Yue was stunned for a moment.

Finally, under the reminder of Xu Dalang and Xu Yue, Wang diluted the blood according to different concentrations and came to the cowshed.

Fourteen slaves died one more, and now only thirteen remain.

Four of them drank the medicine given by Gu Weihe, and their mental state was obviously better than the other nine.

But there is no sign of improvement, it is just constantly consuming vitality.

The remaining seventeen corpses were lined up in the yard, covered with straw mats.

Fortunately, Laowutou, Yangwazi and others have been sent home in advance, otherwise, if this scene is seen by outsiders, those who don't know will think that the Xu family is doing some horrible biochemical experiments.

The slaves were already unconscious, lying on the straw in the cowshed with their eyes open, exhaling more air than inhaling.

Xu Erniang fed them some water and liquid food, managed to regain their breath, and could hear Wang's questioning.

"Anyone else willing to try the medicine?"

Wang's voice was low, but it was clearly heard by every slave.

They barely held on to their last strength, and blinked their eyes. Seeing the tenacious vitality, Xu Erniang couldn't bear to turn her head away, and sighed.

Although there is an antidote, these people obviously have no time to wait for the arrival of the antidote.

From the onset of the disease to death, the process is too short. It can take half a day or three or four days. Many people will be taken away by the disease before the antidote appears.

With the consent of the parties concerned, Wang first took out the sample with the lowest concentration and gave it to two people who seemed to be in the best physical condition to drink it.

Next, it's time to wait for the results.

The two slaves reacted quickly, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, their closed eyes suddenly opened, red blood quickly covered both eyes, it looked very scary.

Xu Dalang was calm, holding one hand on the other, watching the immune system of the two fight against the fierce zombie virus, and finally they were infected by this weak zombie virus and died quickly.

From lesion to death, it takes less than 2 minutes in total.

"Will they also become zombies?" Xu Erniang asked curiously as she looked at the two corpses.

Xu Dalang shook his head, with this level of zombie virus content, another healthy person would not die, let alone be assimilated by him.

He lowered his head, pressed it against the chests of the two slaves, listened to each other, and nodded to Mrs. Wang:

"It has anti-virus effects, but their health is too poor. If they persist for another minute, they have a chance to survive."

"Auntie, the concentration needs to be doubled again, a small amount several times, feed while watching." Xu Yue who was sitting by the window reminded.

She looked at the two dead slaves, and sighed heavily, hoping for better luck in the future.

After listening to Xu Yue's words, the three Wangs found two more people to try in this small and frequent way.

This time, the reaction of the two slaves was much gentler than the previous two, and soon they could hear their gradually stronger breathing.
