Chapter 13 No.13 Yunxi Water

Seeing his elder brother's serious look, Huzi was a little scared, and he was really a little afraid of the pain of the disease. He held the medicine bowl and drank the medicine in one breath. He grinned in pain, and Qiu Laifu fed him a red date , and stuffed two more in his hand.Hu Zi had already recovered and refused to sleep on the small bed again.Qiu Laifu also wanted to take him away.

The horse shopkeeper left them to eat together in the pharmacy.After a long day of tossing, they were indeed hungry.But Qiu Laifu still rejected Ma's kindness, he knew that his current situation was not suitable to leave traces of deep friendship with others.It is best to leave as soon as possible.

After resigning from Shopkeeper Ma and others, they left the pharmacy, went to a noodle stall near the pharmacy, and had a bowl of noodles with Hu Zi, which solved the stomach problem.Another trip to the grocery store.Added a potion.Only then did he take Hu Zi to the pier.On the road, I met a farmer selling vegetables and bought some green vegetables and beans.

When passing by a bookstore, I went in to pick a few more books. I have to say that the books here are really precious, an enlightened "Three Character Classic", a "Historical Book" that records this time and space historical dynasty, and a miscellaneous book of unofficial history. "Journey to the South Brocade", plus a set of medium pen, ink, paper and inkstone, will cost four taels of silver once the settlement is made. No wonder this time and space is still so backward.If knowledge cannot be widely promoted, it is tantamount to blocking the development path of time and space.

However, Qiu Laifu felt very lucky that the characters in this time and space were traditional characters that Qiu Laifu knew.The reason why Qiu Laifu bought these books was to find out if he knew the style of the characters here.Seeing that she knew the characters here, she planned to enlighten Little Huzi.By the way, learn about the history and culture of this time and space.

After leaving the bookstore, Qiu Laifu and the others headed directly to the pier, but on the way to the pier, they always took the bustling street. There were two Xiao Xiaoxiao who followed them, but in the end they had no chance to make a move.Qiu Laifu and the others boarded the boat smoothly.Sailed away.

They ate and lived in the boat along the way, and did not go to the shore to rest at night. They just kept the boat on the shore, but it was about a foot away from the shore, and nailed the bow and stern of the boat with two bamboo poles inserted into the water.Prevent the boat from drifting with the current.This will allow you to sleep peacefully on the water.Although I would occasionally go ashore to pick up some firewood, it was all done in a very safe situation.

Every evening after they finished washing up after dinner, Qiu Laifu would teach Huzi for a while, Huzi's ability to accept was strong, and his mother had taught him some, and he could finish learning a "San Zi Jing" in a few days.Although it cannot be carried backwards, it is smooth along the back.Surprised Qiu Laifu praised again and again.I recalled that it took me a semester to memorize the "San Zi Jing", but I was studying it (Chinese Studies Interest Class), and I had two classes a week.

Taking time out, Qiu Laifu also read the history book roughly. The time and space she is in now is the Great Jin Kingdom after the Qin Dynasty. It is now in the early days of the founding of the country. The history of the pre-Qin period seems to be similar to the Qin Dynasty, and I don’t know what happened. After the Qin Dynasty was destroyed, it was not the Han Dynasty.The Kingdom of Jin is now under the Song family.It is now the 28th year of the Kingdom of Jin.

The boat kept going down the river, and passed a big wharf in Yunxi County 5 days later. Qiu Laifu and the others were about to go ashore to buy some vegetables, but the yamen in charge of the boat stopped them from going ashore, "There is a plague in this city. The spread spread. Now the city gates are closed and all entry and exit are prohibited.

At present, people are not allowed to dock ships at this pier, let alone go ashore and enter the city.Hurry up and leave, or you won't be allowed to leave.This is an order from above. "The yamen servant explained patiently.

"Plague, do you know what the symptoms of the plague are?" Qiu Laifu asked.

"I really don't know. I haven't been in for three months. I only know that the plague has occurred for more than ten days. The city gate has been closed for more than ten days. It is said that more than 100 people have died. The city is now Most of the people were infected, and several people died in the family of the county magistrate. Two doctors in the city also died. I advise you to leave as soon as possible." The yamen servant said in fear, with goosebumps appearing as he spoke.

It is so serious. It is summer now. Summer is the season for bacteria to multiply the fastest. There are several diseases that can spread rapidly. In this period of backward medical and sanitary conditions, it is easy to evolve into a plague.Judging by the appearance of the yamen servant, it is impossible to enter the city from the pier.Then you can only find another way.

"Thank you uncle for your guidance. Let's leave now." Qiu Laifu replied obediently, turned around and drove the boat away from the pier.But it stopped not far from the pier.There is a river beach several meters wide, and there are a few large stones on the beach that are smooth and clean. Anyone who has been in the countryside can understand that these are the stones that women in the village usually use to wash clothes by the river.It's just that no one is washing clothes on the river beach now.

This river beach is only about a mile away from the pier. If you are lucky, you should be able to reach the city from this river beach.Qiu Laifu docked the boat here a foot away from the shore, used a big rock as an anchor, and then borrowed a bamboo raft to go ashore.After Qiu Laifu got ashore, Huzi pulled the bamboo raft to the side of the boat and told Huzi not to leave the boat at will.

Qiu Laifu walked up the slope along the path on the river beach, and when he reached a ridge, he saw a village, but from a distance, it was deserted. There was no one in the field, and there was no smoke from the houses everywhere.Qiu Laifu began to suspect that this was a death village.

Bold up the courage to go to the houses in the village, only to find that there is no one inside the village, but all of them are stumbling around and looking weak.Some let out feeble groans.The sigh is that God is going to eat people, and they can't help it.Can only wait to die.

When they saw a masked man walking towards them, they all looked at him like a monster, because the masked man was still full of energy.And the people in their village are all listless, waiting to die.

What was even more surprising was that this energetic child was a half-grown child. He even stretched out his hand to feel the pulse of these lying people, and after taking the pulse of one person, he replaced it with another.It has been finished by a dozen people who are next to each other.Then he straightened up and walked into the house.

Qiu Laifu got the pulse of these people, and then walked into the house, which was a thatched house with earthen walls.Qiu Laifu glanced around, and accurately found the kitchen of the house on the far right.She went into the kitchen and checked again. As she expected, she found that the water in the water tank had a faint strange smell. This strange smell is very faint, and it is difficult for ordinary people to detect it. Fortunately, Qiu Laifu was trained in identifying medicinal materials in his previous life. It is the extraordinary sense of smell that distinguishes the strange smell in the water.

Turning around, he came out of the kitchen and came to an old man. This old man was in a better condition than those around him and looked a little more energetic. Qiu Laifu chose him as the subject of questioning, "Grandpa, where do the people here drink?" Water?" The old man had been paying attention to this strange half-grown boy who came to their village, seeing that he had taken everyone's pulse, and now he asked questions.

Although he didn't know what the half-grown kid was going to do, he answered his questions patiently. "We all use Yunxi water, and Yunxi water is the stream flowing down from Yunshan." He raised his hand with difficulty and pointed to a high mountain not far away, "That is Yunshan, and Yunshan is very high. We don’t know where the source of the stream is, but the stream has never dried up. People in our area, including the city, use this stream.”

So all of you, including the people in the city, got the plague.It really is the water problem.

"Grandpa, I found that only your condition is relatively mild, so I would like to ask you what special food you have eaten recently? Maybe this special food is a good medicine to restrain this epidemic."

Hearing Qiu Laifu's question, the old man was a little shy, "Actually, old man, I didn't eat anything special, but there was too little food at home. We added some grass roots to the porridge when we cooked it. In fact, the grass roots were nothing. The special things are found everywhere on those slopes, and they were picked by my grandson, and I made you laugh when I told them, our family is so poor that we eat grass roots."

When Qiu Laifu heard about grass roots, he immediately thought of Banlangen.Radix isatidis has anti-virus effects, so this family just ate the anti-virus grass roots, so the old man's condition is the lightest.What luck. "What about the rest of your family? How are they? Is your family here?"
