The fortress's own fleet carries various medicinal materials, and the female relatives will add some when cooking.
If you are sick, treat the disease; if you are not sick, keep fit.
It's just that the little girl in front of me has a severe fever, so it's better to see a doctor first.
Even the level of those two doctors was not that great.
When they found the doctor of the Gu family's caravan, the two of them were even more nervous than Ren Ning and wanted to jump out of the car.
"Commander Ren, be careful. Isn't this little girl suffering from the epidemic?"
"I heard that an epidemic broke out in Yunzhong County. I don't know how well it can be controlled. It would be terrible if it spreads here."
Epidemics are also called epidemics, which occurred frequently in ancient times. To put it simply, they are infectious diseases.
Ren Ning frowned and looked at it with his golden finger.
The little girl's color is yellow, which is neither helpful nor harmful to him. It is obviously not an epidemic.
"It's an epidemic. I just have a cold and a high fever." Ren Ning was not in a good temper at the moment, "Hurry up and take a look."
The two doctors groaned, their faces full of reluctance.
They are the doctors who accompany the caravan, and the caravan is not a charity. The business journey is long, and if they treat the patients they encounter on the road, let alone the caravan, it will be too much for them.
"No cure?" Ren Ning stared.
"Zhizhi." Their hearts skipped a few beats and they hurriedly picked up the child.
After a good diagnosis, the two of them finally breathed a sigh of relief after discussing it for a while, and quickly wrote a prescription.
"You just said that an epidemic broke out in Yunzhong County?" Ren Ning lowered his voice, "Is this true? When did it happen?"
In their team to send souls back to their hometowns, one-third of the ashes and female family members will be sent back to Yunzhong County.
If an epidemic really breaks out in the county, and it is widespread or cannot be controlled, it will be in big trouble.
The two doctors looked embarrassed, but they did not dare to hide it.
"We actually don't know if it's true or false."
"We passed by a small town medical clinic before, and we went in to buy some medicinal materials that were running out. We happened to listen to a few mutterings from the apprentices."
"It should be true. Haven't you seen that this trade route was very carefully checked? It is said that they are afraid that people from the three southwest counties will come over the mountains and ridges."
hey-hey.
"What's wrong with blocking the road?" Another person sneered.
"You mean there will be people running over the mountains and ridges from Yunzhong County to Laigu County. Do you think they have wings? Why don't you just go to the Imperial Capital?"
…
Ren Ning looked ugly.
Just now it was just Yunzhong County, now it's better, Xingluo and Yingchuan are also included.
"Commander," the two of them saw that Ren Ning's expression was wrong and they quickly stopped arguing, "We are just hearsay, we can't take it seriously."
Even if it were true, it would take more than a month for everyone in the fortress to return to Xingluo. By then the epidemic would have been over, so there was no need to worry.
When Lei Er caught up with the little boy carrying the fish, his sister had already drank the medicine.
This minor illness was not a problem for the two doctors accompanying the team. The little girl's face, which was on fire, had already recovered somewhat.
Not long after, the team stopped to rest and eat.
Ren Ning was more cautious and carefully checked the people, cars and even livestock in his party.
Everything is safe and sound.
Turning to the doctor of the Gu family's caravan, the little boy was devouring food.
While feeding Zhui Feng, Ren Ning asked, "The little guy is very smart. What's his name? How is your sister?"
"My name is Sijin, and my sister's name is Baishui."
Ren Ning wiped his sweat.
The common people were illiterate, so it was easy to name their children "Sijin", but "Baishui" was not a good name.
"She's much better now. Thank you big brother for saving her life." The little boy put down the bowl and chopsticks and kowtowed to Ren Ning a few more times.
"The doctor said that my sister will be sweating after a nap and she will be almost fine when she wakes up."
"That's good." Ren Ning breathed a sigh of relief, "It's a little effort, no need to kowtow, just eat well first."
Lei Er came over with a smile and a bowl of fragrant fish soup.
"Old Ren, please finish your work. This soup is specially reserved for you."
"The temperature is just right. It's fresh. Try it quickly."
Ren Ning nodded and did not refuse.
He took a taste and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Really fresh and delicious.
Zhui Feng smelled the fragrance, stuck out his bright red tongue, and came whizzing over.
"You like it too?" Ren Ning laughed dumbly.
He reached out and hooked his beloved horse's tongue, put the bowl on the ground, "Drink."
Zhui Feng took a sip, shook his tail happily, and drank the soup in three gulps.
"Good fellow, I won't leave any for your master." Lei Er couldn't help but pat Zhui Feng's tall, dark body.
"It's okay." Ren Ning smiled.
"Since Zhui Feng likes fish soup, let's give it to him. The team has been moving forward like a snail these days, which is really embarrassing for him."
The two of them moved a few steps away to grab some food.
Lei Er took out his dagger and picked his teeth carelessly, "Old Ren, what are you going to do with these two children? It is impossible for the Gu family's caravan to take them with them."
Even if he knew from the beginning that the little girl's name was Baishui, even a good old man like Gu Fugui would probably refuse to treat her without hesitation.
As the saying goes, the soil and water support the people.
If you want to become a member of a certain place, you must first take a sip of water from their clan's well.
Therefore, for girls and women, drinking water from other people's wells is equivalent to getting married.
There is a kind of woman named Baishui.
They are born with strong physical strength. They are born to resist their parents, grow up to resist their brothers, get married to their husbands, and old age to suppress their children.
The only way to save him is to drink water from a hundred wells, that is, one hundred waters.
It is equivalent to marrying a hundred times and bringing disaster to a hundred clans.
Therefore, this is by no means a good reputation. On the contrary, it is a plague god that everyone avoids.
Ren Ning looked up at the eastern skyline.
"We also have no fixed place to live..."
"We will honestly ask the women later. If anyone is willing to take them in, we will take them with them. If no one is willing, we will give them some money."
The world is difficult, and we can save it for a while, but not for the rest of our lives.
boom!
Lei Er angrily punched the ground beneath him, "God, this thief is a cannibal."
He went back and asked.
The corners of the female family members' mouths moved, but no one made a sound.
They were originally orphans and widowed mothers, and their fate was very bad after they returned home. No one dared to bring another pair of children who would have been a disaster.
The caravan waited for no one and had to continue its journey before the little girl woke up.
Lei Er came back on Ben Lei and said, "Old Ren, there are no charity halls around here..."
Ren Ning had no choice but to give the little boy a few taels of money and sent them off the car with mixed feelings, "Change your sister's name. Find a place with few people and try to survive."
"There is hope as long as you live."
He has plenty of money in his hands. But if he gives too much money, instead of helping the brothers and sisters, it is more likely to harm them.
"I know." The little boy didn't complain and knelt on the roadside with a bright smile.
Every time a car in the team passed by, he kowtowed until he could no longer be seen.
Ren Ning withdrew his gaze and looked at Lei Er next to him, "Find a way to find out what's going on in the mountains and forests nearby! Are we going to let the people live?"
Gu Fugui came over on horseback.
"I know that Commander Ren has a good heart, but I will forgive the old man for speaking frankly. In such a poor and remote place, it is normal for children to sell their children and starve to death on the roadside. After a while, when we reach the rich east and the imperial capital, it will be a peaceful and prosperous age. Bear with it
It’s over.”
Ren Ning looked at him expressionlessly.
If he hadn't seen that the old man was already very old, he might have been injured if he fell off the horse. Ren Ning wanted to kick him.
