The Queen's Guide to Wealth

Chapter 22 Xiao Shan
Several men tore down the curtains in the main hall, Bai Fan, and packed the belongings looted in the coffin into burdens.

He grabbed the white-faced eunuch by the ear and dragged him outside.

The court ladies and eunuchs who were kneeling down saw that someone knew the way out of the palace, so they all got up and followed with the things they had found.

The leading man stopped in his tracks, turned his head and stared fiercely at the crowd.

"They're all scattered for me, whoever dares to follow, the sword in the man's hand doesn't have eyes."

Everyone trembled in fright, and those who were brave enough knelt down and kowtowed immediately.

"The commander-in-chief brought us along. We can't stay in this palace. We low-ranking palace people will either be buried with the emperor when we are buried, or we will be sent to sacrifice to heaven when the eldest prince succeeds to the throne.

Although I have entered the palace since I was a child, I am still young and do not want to die. "

The man's eyes glared: "Everyone has their own destiny, so what do you do with me? If so many people go out together, they will be dead if they are found." Then he drew out his big knife, and there was a loud bang, "If you still dare to follow, you will not be able to wait until you are accompanied." Funeral day."

Everyone was terrified, so they could only resign themselves to their fate, watching six or seven men dragging the white-faced eunuchs into the ruined imperial city.

When they came back to their senses, each of them showed fierce faces, and began to fight over the scattered belongings again.

Jin Bo immersed himself in looking for the medicine, and the fog on the map was gradually washed away, and suddenly several light spots broke into his eyes.

This time was different from the last time I met Xie Qiming, the approaching light spot was red, and the speed was very fast, it was obvious that the visitor was not friendly.

Jin Bo leaned down and hid in the dry grass, but saw several guards with knives dragging a white-faced eunuch to the ruined palace where they were hiding.

Secretly said: "Not good." If someone finds out that they are hiding in the palace, they will probably die.

He got up and took the path back to the broken hall. Seeing that the cubs were still sleeping without any disturbance, he breathed a sigh of relief and hid in the dark to see what the pedestrian was trying to do.

When they got closer, Jin Bo realized that they didn't come to destroy the palace, but just passed by here, heading straight for the gap in the palace wall, it seemed that they wanted to escape from the imperial city and seek a way out.

Seeing Jinbo sneaking around, Ah Kuan opened his mouth and asked, "Is there anything to eat?" Jinbo was startled, turned around and gave him a kick.

"Shh! There are people outside, if you don't want to die, just shut up." Turning to continue observing, he found something was wrong, and jumped off the lame chair.

"When did you move here? Didn't I tie you there last night?"

Ah Kuan grinned, showing two rows of white teeth: "That end is too far away from the fire, it's very cold. Is there anything to eat?"

Jin Bo rolled his eyes at him: "Are you a reincarnation of a starving ghost? You want to eat everything you open or close your mouth."

He took out the herbs from his bosom, threw them one by one into the earthen jar, added water and boiled it, she had seen Jinbao boil medicine, it was like this.

When the medicine is ready, give it to Xie Qiming, and he should be fine.

Seeing Jinbo's movements, Ah Kuan opened his mouth in shock: "Who do you want to kill?"

Jin Bo made a quick glance: "This is a decoction for reducing fever. If you don't understand it, don't talk nonsense."

Ah Kuan swallowed and spit: "If you want me to tell you, whoever drinks this decoction will burn his intestines to death.

That, yes, is the one with red flowers in your hand, it is called Heartbroken Grass, even a three-year-old child in Dayou can recognize it, it can be used as medicine before it blooms, but the poison will be released when it blooms.

You don't even eat the bugs that come out at night, you dare to eat them for others. "

Jinbo held the grass in front of his eyes to watch, and called up the notes in the system. It was indeed as A Kuan said, that it cannot be used as medicine after it blooms.

But it's not as scary as what Ah Kuan said. After eating it, the intestines will be pierced and the stomach will rot. At most, the stomach will hurt for a few days, and it's just nausea and vomiting.

After carefully looking at the anti-fever prescription, I began to cook it.

Smelling the fragrance of herbs, the children gathered around one by one, staring at the bubbling crock with big eyes blinking.

He didn't even open his mouth to eat, just stared at it while sucking his saliva.

Jin Bo sighed, what evil did she do, she had already died once, and she still couldn't get rid of the fate of taking care of others.

In the past, I had some ability, but now my life and death are uncertain, and my future is unknown, and I have to bother with these oil bottles, I am really worried.

Picked up a few sweet potatoes from the ashes and shared them among them.

Fortunately, these children are quite sensible, and they didn't cry or make noise all the way, and they ate or squatted or sat around Jinbo to warm up by the fire.

Ah Kuan ate half of a potato and was in a good mood, shaking his head and telling stories to the cubs.

The voice was so vivid and full of emotion that even Jin Bo couldn't help urging him to speak quickly.

After the story was finished, Jinbo's medicine was ready, and he asked Ah Kuan while blowing the medicine.

"You have read the book, right? In the story, the etiquette, righteousness, honesty and shame are very clear. How did you become a murderer who burned the city?"

Ah Kuan's thin face was flushed red, he couldn't say a word after being choked by Jin Bo, his body shrank into a ball, and buried his face in his knees.

Jin Bo took the medicine to feed Xie Qiming: "This will make you feel ashamed, why didn't you see your conscience when you robbed the child for food."

Ah Kuan buried his head deeper, and muttered: "I don't want to either, you don't know how painful it is to be dizzy from hunger, with weak hands and feet, and to sieve sand and transport stones.

I don't know how much temptation a bucket of grain is to a person who is about to starve to death.

Let alone asking me to burn the city, even if I sacrificed my relatives and friends, I would not hesitate at that time. "

Listening to A Kuan's muttering, Jinbo felt chills down her spine, she knew that feeling, she had experienced it in the scorched earth of the last days.

Didn't she once rob resource-rich strongholds for a bite of food, so what qualifications would she have to criticize Ah Kuan from a moral high point?

Without saying a word, he fed Xie Qiming the medicine, walked up to Ah Kuan, and untied him from the rope.

"Let's go and get your bucket of grain."

Ah Kuan couldn't believe it. He rubbed his skinny wrist and said with a smile: "If you really want to let me go, I'm not afraid that I will attract someone to cook you all. I heard that children's meat is the most delicious food." It is fragrant and sweet, and the bones are crispy when roasted with fire."

Jinbo's scalp felt numb, he picked up the stick and hit Ah Kuan's bony back.

Although he knew that he was joking, but hearing him say this, he still couldn't help being furious.

"Grandma has a lot of ways to treat you. If you want to eat me, are your teeth hard enough?"

Ah Kuan was not in a hurry to leave when he was free. He ate and had food in his stomach for the past two days, and his rationality and humanity were also regained by him.

Cannibalism, of course, is a joke. Although Jinbo has a strong mouth, he is just a child after all.

Although he set fire to the city and caused such a catastrophe, although he didn't intend it, he still wanted to make atonement.

This group of children was displaced, and they were dragging two patients with them. Ah Kuan wanted to stay and take care of them and take care of them.

He knows that his ability is limited, but his teacher said before, don't do something small.

He didn't know if what he did was a small act of kindness, but Ah Kuan had already made up his mind, and his road to redemption began here.
