Chapter 578
"Well, it's a long story."
"More than a month ago, there was a plague in our village. The plague came suddenly, and we didn't know what was going on. And the disease seemed to be contagious, and all the capable people moved away, leaving only us, a group of widowers and lonely people. Originally, we were still
We can survive for a few days, but this heavy snow has cut off the way for all of us to survive!"
The old man burst into tears after saying this, and Li Yuezhu couldn't help but shed tears.
"I have been guarding this village for more than 40 days, and urgent reports have been sent for more than ten days. I have to wait and hope that the court will send someone!"
The old man glanced at the child on the bed.
"This is my grandson. Thank you, Miss, for your help."
I learned from the old man that this town was originally a very prosperous town, with nearly a hundred households in the town, and as the mayor of this town, he has always been loved by people, but this time, facing life and death, even if
The mayor also has no right to influence other people's decisions.
"Hey! Let's go, let's die. I'm afraid we, Kull, are going to die!"
The old man's ending trembled, and Li Yuezhu's heart trembled.
"Old man, since you don't have this plague, can you tell us in detail how this disease came about?"
After everyone was settled and porridge was cooked for everyone, Li Yuezhu had a shopping system in his hands after all. Although he hadn't sold anything in it for a long time, he still had enough money to buy medicine.
After listening to the old man's description, Li Yuezhu also made a judgment in his mind.
"Miss, I'm afraid it won't work like this. We can't hold on for long at all. We don't have much food and grass with us. We consumed so much in the General Temple before, and now we have to feed more than 50 people. We can barely get here today.
Okay, in the future..."
How could she not know Fan Bai's worries?
"Send someone to inform Beishuo and ask him to bring back some grain and grass."
Fan Bai's face turned pale after hearing this. In the whole world, I am afraid that only the saint dared to call His Majesty by his name like this!
"yes!"
The snow outside was falling in bits and pieces. Li Yuezhu took out the mugwort that had been prepared long ago from the box, disinfected the entire room, and then turned on the heater from inside the room.
The old man was naturally very grateful.
I didn't expect this little girl to be so magnanimous at such a young age. She is their savior!
In the evening, the child lying in bed finally woke up.
"Grandpa, grandpa."
The child shouted helplessly. The mayor heard his grandson's call and ran over quickly. He held his grandson's hand and started crying.
"My grandson, you finally woke up."
After the child woke up, he cried in his grandfather's arms. In the evening, several people woke up one after another.
After Li Yuezhu looked at them one by one, he was a little confused.
This plague is so violent that it catches people off guard, and the information collected is trivial, messy and not unified.
The villagers are of course very simple. When they know that someone is coming to save them, they are of course very grateful and cooperate in everything they do.
Although they didn't know why the court asked a young girl to handle this matter, they at least had something to rely on.
The next day, instead of waiting for supplies from Beishuo, Brother Li, who was tired of traveling, arrived.
Brother Li has obviously been used to seeing this kind of thing for a long time. Birth, old age, illness and death are simply commonplace for him.
When he heard a few hooting sounds and someone reported that Brother Li was leading the crowd, Li Yuezhu felt a little strange.
How did this man find his way here?
"Miss, please be careful this time. I don't think Brother Li is a good person."
"Dameng, please stop saying a few words. The lady is troubled. Do you want me to deal with it?"
"No, maybe they are just passing by. I'll go out and take a look."
Dressed in bright clothes and angry horses, with a dashing appearance and a striking expression, from a distance, this manly man is really quite attractive.
Li Yuezhu just thought about it from his heart.
"I didn't expect that we would meet again after not seeing each other for a few days."
Brother Li sat on the tall horse and looked at the little girl underneath who was not as tall as the horse.
"It's very fateful."
Brother Li observed this town carefully. He had been here before. The last time he came here, it was extremely prosperous. This time, he didn't expect that it would be so depressed.
"What's going on here?"
Li Yuezhu wrapped his sleeves: "I wonder what happened when Brother Li passed by here? If nothing happens, let's leave as soon as possible. There are many sick patients here, and their diseases are contagious."
Li Yuezhu didn't want to see him now. Those wretched men were not following behind their horses. Although those men were not good people, it did not prove that Brother Li was harmless to humans and animals.
"Hey, this little girl has been with me for so long and yet you don't want to see me! I won't confiscate your rent anyway."
Li Yuezhu rolled her eyes. He didn't charge her rent, but she didn't charge him food money either!
"Quickly find me a good guest room and boil some water. It's been quite tiring to stay in that ice and snow for the past few days."
Li Yuezhu ignored his words at all. They didn't have many manpower, so how could they spare more manpower to serve these big men!
Fortunately, Brother Li was not angry and narrowed his eyes as he looked at the little girl who turned to leave.
"Go down and find a house to live in. I didn't expect so many people to have died in this town. It's really convenient for us."
Brother Li laughed and left.
Li Yuezhu shook his head. It's better now. There wasn't much food and grass in the past, but now he has to feed nearly a hundred people.
"This guy is really shameless. Miss, you have made it so clear. He is still staying here shamelessly. If he is not afraid of catching the disease, then he should stay here. It is best to die from the disease."
Dameng always spoke openly, so Ah Chun quickly pulled her back. If that cruel brother Li heard it, not only would they be in trouble, but the young lady might also be harmed.
Now everyone has changed to one meal a day.
In this ice and snow, small animals no longer come out to look for food. Yesterday, the lady just ordered everyone not to go hunting and to eat the rice she brought. Although everyone didn't understand why, they did so.
"Oh, I'm so hungry! I'm used to three meals a day, but now it's reduced to one meal a day. My stomach is already growling with hunger."
"I'm hungry too, but look at the food we have, we can only afford one meal. I hope Heifeng can come back in time tomorrow."
…
"Snowflakes are falling outside again."
Li Yuezhu listened to the guards' whispers and sighed in his heart. In this ice and snow, even if Heifeng rode a fast horse to Luoding City, it would take at least five days to go back and forth. The food was simply not enough.
