Pastoral elegance: the shocking little peasant girl

Chapter 240 Meeting (8)

"Sister misses you too, ah~" Tian Xiaohe comforted softly, sighing helplessly in her heart, but she still had to take her to Xie's house to finish what was supposed to be done.

The two quickly came to the stone house at the foot of the west mountain, skillfully took out the key to open the door of Xie's house, and then inserted the latch to enter the side room.

Then, Qian Mai opened the wardrobe next to the wall as if at home, and the two of them got into the hanging old clothes one after another, and closed the door, as if they had never appeared in the room.

The two passed through the wall and came to another airtight stone room. Qian Maimai quickly touched the fire pocket in the hole in the wall, polished it with a "chuss", lit the nearest wall lamp, and then lit several others one after another. Finally, the skylight on the roof was opened, and the room suddenly became much brighter.

This stone room can be said to be very spacious, except for a stone table, there is a black wooden cabinet more than two meters long, and on the other side is a large medicine cabinet that is beyond the norm, and several medicine tools.

Afterwards, the two skillfully took materials from the medicine cabinet, then ground them into fine powder, and then poured them into a wooden drum for mixing. The process was boring and tedious.

After the mixing was completed, the two of them made the powder into pellets and put them in a bottle and put them in a black wooden cabinet.

After such a busy day, as soon as Tian Xiaohe returned to his home, Xie Lichun hurried over.

"Xiaohe, let me tell you some bad news." Xie Lichun's dark face was unusually dignified, and he no longer had the slightest naivety. The patients intercepted, but they could not stop the beasts and birds that carried the plague, especially a small green-eyed fly, which would make the beasts that stung them extremely restless. Liaocheng began to seal the city yesterday, and built a building in the mountains south of the city. It is estimated that it will be ignited in two days, whether it can stop the rioting beasts from attacking human settlements is still a matter of opinion; therefore, we have to leave early..."

"Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Just as he was talking, the chief of the village suddenly rang the gong in a hurry, apparently summoning the villagers to make an announcement.

"Let's go, let's see what everyone will do." Xie Lichun sighed softly,
"Quiet, folks, I'm going to make a long story short..." Li Chang raised his hand and pressed it down, and quickly got to the point, briefly describing the animal madness and plague that might be faced, and telling the villagers where to go Escape if you can, even if you hide in the city first, it is safer than staying in the village.

As a result, what the chief said was like flooding an ant's nest, and the expanded panic spread silently and quickly, depressing and dull. This kind of natural disaster that is hard to fight makes people unable to breathe. Many people are at the moment. Choosing to move the whole family, even going to the city to be a beggar is better than staying in the village and waiting to die.

Two days later, there was no one in the village, and even the nearby villages were deserted, but Liaocheng became more crowded, with long queues at the gate of the city, and the high city entrance tax made many people stop. Taxes keep going up.

Later, some people who wanted to survive had to abandon their young daughters in order to pay the city entry tax.As a result, the outside of the city became crowded, and piles of little girls who were abandoned by their parents gathered together and cried, which annoyed the soldiers guarding the city, and even drew knives to kill those who rushed into the city. Order maintained order.
