The wealth of rebirth is deep in the mountains

Chapter 179
At this time, someone came running and shouted, "Xiaomi, the aunt who was rescued first has a fever, and it seems to be quite severe."

Xiaomi slapped his head, he was really afraid of something. Sudden cold and sudden heat are the most likely to cause fever. These people will not be completely finished if they slow down, they have to go through the wind, cold and fever.

"Send the person to my house first, and I will arrive later. My third brother still has the medicine left over from his previous fever, and he has survived the jurisdiction."

Xiaomi stomped his feet, rarely complaining, "Why is Uncle Bi going out to visit friends at this time?"

Everyone also sighed. Disasters always come suddenly at inappropriate times, and they are really caught off guard.The earthquake probably caused chaos in the city, and it was almost impossible to even think about finding a doctor to come back.

Fortunately, there is no such thing as a perfect road. Aunt Liu patted her chest and said after coming in from the outside, "Everyone, don't worry, I can take care of this matter. Last time Brother Qian was sick, I went to grab the medicine, and the youngest Bi was lazy. Calling me to weigh the medicine and pack it, I still remember how much it is."

"Oh, this is great!"

Everyone was overjoyed, Xiaomi also tugged Aunt Liu's hand, "Auntie took someone to grab the medicine, don't care if you have a fever, adults pour a bowl, children get half of it."

"Sure, don't worry, I'm going up the mountain now."

After Aunt Liu finished speaking, she hurriedly ran to Bi's house to find the medicine storehouse.

The women also found their own pots of medicine, and re-entered the great business of brewing medicine. For a while, the whole area of ​​Laoxiongling was full of medicine.

After all the people had poured the medicinal soup, and the sun had reached the top of Dongshan Mountain, everyone was so tired that they couldn't straighten up.

Xiaomi leaned on the door frame, thinking that so many people in Zhaojia Village were tired and cold for half the night, and they were going to boil water for cooking, and bring some food and drink to everyone.

But at this time, Lord Feng brought all the villagers back.

A bruised complexion, a bare head without a hat, feet without boots, and clothes and pants covered with frost...

Everyone was in a state of embarrassment, terribly cold, and the distressed women immediately forgot all their exhaustion, and hurried up to beat snowflakes and pour hot water.Some women didn't care about anything, and with tears in their eyes, they put their man's frozen red feet into their arms and covered them, "You are saving others, but you have to take care of your own life. How can you live if your feet are frozen!"

The man gulped down the hot water, barely made it better, and said, "You don't know, it's too miserable! The avalanche was originally severe, but the rocks dropped by the earthquake collapsed the house, and it hurt and froze. Dead. Some were never found at all, and we had to wait for the snow to melt in spring."

"My God, what a crime this is!"

"Wow, that's so pitiful!"

The women couldn't help wiping away their tears, but they were still outsiders. The people from the Zhao family village who were lying on the big kangs in the houses on both sides cried loudly when they heard that their relatives were killed.Some desperately crawled to the ground, wanting to rush back.

It was originally an earthquake in the middle of the night, and these people didn't wear much, and they were soaked in water. No matter men, women, old or young, their clothes were a little disheveled.

Old Master Feng was so angry that his beard trembled wildly, he found a teacup and smashed it heavily, causing everyone to stop in shock.

Only then did he curse loudly, "What are you doing? With you like this, the family members can come back to life? Take good care of them. Their bones are still frozen outside, and there is nowhere to bury them!"

"Woooo, father, mother!"

When a man heard this, he fell to his knees and cried to death.There is also a woman who has lost her child, her face is flushed with fever, and she still wants to run out like a madman.

Old Master Feng had no choice but to wave his hand to signal Uncle Guo to knock the woman out.

Aunt Liu carried the man back to the big kang with red eyes. Xiaomi was heartbroken, and leaned up to Father Lu, and asked, "Father, these people probably have no place in such a cold day." Go, there is no food. Why don't we take them in for a winter, as for the future... Let's talk about it."

Father Lu didn't know how expensive Chai Migui was if he wasn't in charge of the family, so he felt pity in his heart, and when his daughter brought it up, there was no way he would disagree.

"Success, look at the arrangements. They are all poor people, and they have to help when they meet."

Old Master Feng heard it from the side, and said, "I can't let your family bear the burden. Our families on the mountain can help with anything. After saving their lives, we can't watch them starve to death again."

"Don't worry, Mr. Feng, the concierge and my second brother's yard can be accommodated. If we can't open the vermicelli workshop and put it on a big kang, people can live in it. Just stick to this winter first. "

Xiaomi helped Old Master Feng, "I've been busy all night, you go back and rest first, we can't do without your Dinghaishenzhen, you must take good care of your body."

"Okay, okay," Old Master Feng was very tired, but he was coaxed into a smile by Xiaomi's few words, "I'm an old guy, I'm still waiting to see that our old Xiongling has a better life."

A villager hurried over, bent over, carried the old man on his back and went back to the mountain.

The corpses of those Zhaojia Villagers who were not rescued before were parked outside the gatehouse. Xiaomi tried his best not to look at them, but he still asked Uncle Guo, "The corpses of those folks in Zhaojia Village..."

Uncle Guo sighed, waved his hands and said, "People have been left to watch, and the wild beasts on the mountain will not be harmed. However, it is freezing cold, and we can't dig a pit for burial. We can only dig a snow pit and bury it first, and take turns guarding it. After a year...hey, what a pity!"

He couldn't continue in the middle of the sentence, and worried that Xiaomi would be afraid, so he persuaded, "We are the ones who have to deal with this matter, so don't worry about it, these rescued people are enough for you to suffer."

Xiaomi nodded, remembering the thrilling experience last night, and said, "The city will also send people to check it out, I wonder how Brother Xiaodao is doing?"

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

Before Xiaomi could finish speaking, Xiaodao and others rushed back with the sledge.

Most of the staff remaining in the restaurants and grocery stores in the city are young people, young, and it is inevitable that they will lose their composure before such a catastrophe.Almost just rushed into the mountain gate and jumped off the sledge. When the few people saw the corpse frozen like a popsicle outside, they all jumped on it and cried loudly. They waved their hands desperately to wipe off the snow from the corpse's face, trying to identify if it was their own father. mother.

Everyone looked sad and funny, and the elders of several families stepped forward and slapped each of them.After waiting until they heard that their family members were safe and sound, the younger generations began to cry again.

The ecstasy after despair has no place to vent other than tears.

Liu Xiaodao has been the shopkeeper for so long, and he is afraid that others will say that he is not stable, so he has grown a beard.But now I pulled the old woman's arm, and the child refused to let go, which made Aunt Liu wipe away tears, "Don't worry, nothing happened at home. But you, the restaurant in the city is fine, are you hurt?"

"No no."

Xiaodao managed to recover, and finally remembered that he was still the shopkeeper. He quickly wiped away his tears and told Xiaomi, "The restaurants and shops in the city are fine, but some people took advantage of the fire to rob things, and it was a mess for a while. The government dared not open the gates of the city." , but when we opened the city gate, we heard that our village was buried in snow, so we ran back directly, but the gate was closed.”

"It's okay if you don't close the door. Brother Xiaodao, it's best that you are all safe and sound."

Xiaomi hurriedly comforted everyone, causing Xiaodao to frown and curse, "I don't know which idiot spread the news randomly, everyone in and outside the city thought that our old Xiongling... is gone!"

"It's not our house, it's the nearby Zhaojia Village, which was completely buried in snow."

Aunt Liu patted her son, then remembered something and quickly called Xiaomi to ask, "Should someone send a letter to the academy quickly, and don't run back in fright."

Xiaomi also thought of this, but someone outside the door responded, "Don't worry, I'll send someone there. It's not easy for the third child, just read a book, and always worry about it at home."

Shopkeeper Chen walked over while patting the snowflakes on his body, and everyone hurriedly gave up their seats to salute.

Shopkeeper Chen scanned around and was completely relieved when he saw that everyone he knew was there.

At any time, wealth is not as important as a life.As long as people are safe and sound, there is hope for everything.

One after another, several in-laws from outside the mountain gate came to visit. Seeing that the daughter and in-laws were safe and sound, and hearing about the tragedy in Zhaojia Village, they all went back sighing.

Soon, the misunderstanding was cleared up. Old Xiongling was safe and sound, but the neighboring Zhaojia Village was mostly killed and injured, and the entire village was gone.

In Bei'an City, there were no casualties among the people in the east city, west city, and south city. After all, their families were better off and their houses were stronger. Except for a few sick and weak old people who were frightened to death, and some embarrassing incidents where father-in-law and daughter-in-law were fleeing to meet each other in middle clothes. nothing more.

On the contrary, the shantytowns in the north of the city where the poor gathered together were in chaos for a while.

Living in extreme poverty, when the earthquake came, many people subconsciously ran for their lives, but some people kept their eyes on other people's property.Therefore, those who broke into and robbed would be beaten if they could not be robbed, and set on fire if they could not be beaten.

Taking advantage of the wind, the fire burned half a street before being extinguished.

Zhao Zhigao dispatched almost all the police officers, and the city defense army also dispatched a team of 200 people to suppress it, and only then managed to suppress the riot.

Zhao Zhigao was so angry that he jumped, but he didn't go to the north of the city to see it.

It has always been the best excuse for a gentleman not to stand under a dangerous wall. It has been used by scholars and officials for thousands of years, and he still never gets tired of it.

"Trash! It's all trash!"

Zhao Zhigao slapped his palm on the desk, the fat on his face trembled from the pain, but he couldn't cry out the pain in front of his subordinates, so he became even more angry.

"It's just a few local ruffians, Qingpi, who actually caused such a big mess. In the end, they didn't catch any of them? What's the use of raising you trash!"

The detectives below bowed their heads as if pleading guilty, all curled their lips secretly, feeling very disdainful in their hearts.What can the few taels of money sent by the government government do, if you want to eat delicious food and drink spicy food, everyone has to think of other ways.Most of those green-skinned ruffians have something to do with them, so of course they have to show their hands high at this time.

Besides, not many people were killed or injured, so if you report an earthquake disaster, maybe you can get some disaster relief money.Even if you have no money, you can get rich with a year's tax.

How Zhao Zhigao couldn't guess their thoughts, but he suffered here too.
