My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.

Chapter 106 Nonsense
In the pitch-black night.

The group of people opposite them were howling and screaming through the transparent space wall, kicking and punching wildly like madmen, their eyes growing increasingly panicked.

They were filled with fear and anxiety, like trapped animals. Some of them struggled for a moment, then screamed in panic, "Am I being haunted?!"

"There shouldn't be a wall here, so what's going on?"

"A ghost! A ghost! A ghost! A ghost!" The crowd screamed and backed away.

Yet there were still stubborn individuals who kept ramming their heads against the spatial wall, using their entire bodies to strike it.

Xiao Jinzhi glanced at the crowd opposite him and said in a calm voice, "Wan'an Prefecture is not far from here. Instead of going to great lengths to steal other people's food, we should persevere and head to Wan'an Prefecture."

"It's a lie!" someone screamed hysterically from the crowd. "Why go to Wan'an Prefecture? Wan'an Prefecture doesn't accept outsiders anymore. Many people have been sent back."

"Absurd!" Zhu Yan roared back, "How could Wan'an Prefecture not accept people? There are twenty-three prefectures in the Seven Continents. Wan'an Prefecture is one of the twenty-three prefectures of the Great Xia Dynasty, and it ranks among the top. Its strength should not be underestimated. How could it not take in refugees?"

"They were sent back from Wan'an Prefecture, how could they not know more than you?"

"Nonsense! You've all been to Wan'an Prefecture? You all came from Wan'an Prefecture?"

Several people with tumors pounded on the invisible wall and shouted angrily, "What do you know? Wan'an Prefecture stopped accepting people two days ago. You just stood by and watched someone die, and now you have nothing to say?"

Zhu Yan wanted to argue, but Xiao Jinzhi raised his hand to shut him up, and Zhu Yan looked indignant.

Of the seven prefectures and twenty-three counties, Wan'an Prefecture certainly had the strength and sufficient resources to settle the refugees, but given the current situation, it's hard to say.

Xiao Jinzhi knew that these refugees might not be talking nonsense.

"Are you sorcerers?" At this moment, a ragged young man stumbled out from behind the crowd, pressed himself against the invisible wall, and pounded on it forcefully. "I...I am a relative of Lord Qian from the Jingzhao Prefecture. Please save me! You are sorcerers! Please save me!"

"If you save me, I promise my uncle's family will definitely repay you!"

The young man and several others turned to look at him, their eyes filled with hope. "What is a sorcerer? Can they save us?"

The young man ignored everyone else, his gaze fixed intently on Xin Nian and the others.

Xin Nian also stared at him expressionlessly... There were three little finger-sized bumps on his chin.

Suddenly, she asked, "How did you get your illnesses?"

"I'm not sick, I'm not sick!" the young man shouted angrily, slamming his fist on the wall. "Who's sick? I'm not!"

"What did you eat?" Xin Nian ignored him and continued to ask, her voice extremely calm.

"If I tell you, will you save me?"

"No, it won't." Xin Nian replied coldly, her voice clear yet chilling.

"Help me, little girl, please help me!" Another person rushed to the invisible wall, pounding and hitting it while tears streamed down their face. "I'll tell you, I can tell you anything!"

The young man glared at the man and said, "You dare say I'll kill you?"

“It was water; we drank unclean water from the ground. After just one day, tumors appeared on our faces.”

The young man's face contorted in an instant. He grabbed the talkative man and rained down punches on him. "You dared to be so quick-tongued? Did you dare to speak?"

"You'd better not chase after us," Xin Nian said coldly. "This is just a warning. If you try to steal my food again, I will kill you."

After saying that, he pulled Xiao Jinzhi and turned to leave.

"Stay!"

"Girl, don't go!" "Please help us!"

Xin Nian felt a headache coming on and rubbed her head. "Does Wan'an Prefecture have any reserve grain?"

"Definitely," Xiao Jinzhi answered with absolute certainty. "Shall we go?"

Xin Nian nodded, "Let's go take a look."

They'd already reached the vicinity of Wan'an Prefecture; not going to check it out was completely out of character for her. What was she afraid of? She'd just do it, no matter what.

"If we want to save these people, we need Wan'an Prefecture to establish a medical institute. We also need to gather all the doctors in the city to conduct research on the cause of the disease. It will probably take quite a while."

She's not a goddess or a savior; she couldn't possibly dedicate herself to a group of strangers, neglecting sleep and meals.

Back in the modern era, from the emergence of a virus to the development of solutions for both Class I and Class II viruses, it required the joint efforts of all doctors at the base hospital. It would take at least ten days to half a month to develop a new antidote, which was already the best result achieved by all medical workers working day and night.

Now? In this place with no medical equipment and poor medical conditions, it will probably take even longer to investigate the source of the disease, study the components of the toxins, and make antidotes.

Her healing abilities can indeed save lives, but with thousands upon thousands of patients, even if she drained all her energy, it would be impossible to cure them all.

Unless she can recover to the peak of the ninth rank.

At present, this is harder than climbing to heaven.

Seeing her frowning, Xiao Jinzhi squeezed her hand and said, "What are you worried about? Wan'an Prefecture is so big. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of doctors in the city. We can gather them all together to come up with a solution."

"Our individual strength is extremely limited; we need to rely on everyone at times like this."

Xin Nian looked up at him and said, "Your Highness, why do I feel like your Great Xia is like a sieve, leaking everywhere? It's only been a short time since the polar night, and the mountain bandits have come out, and the prefecture is in turmoil again. Your brother even rebelled in the middle of the night!"

Xiao Jinzhi, with an innocent expression and elegant demeanor, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to Xin Nian, saying, "I still need to ask Miss Nian for your help."

Xin Nian chuckled, teasing the other person before offering a word of comfort, "Your Highness, you are the rightful heir, and you are right wherever you go. There's no need to take other petty people to heart."

Xiao Jinzhi nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, with me here, we'll be fine. From now on, we'll take down any bandits we see. If there's unrest in the prefecture, we'll kill them all and replace them with new ones. It's fine if my brother rebels; we'll kill him if we encounter him, and let him go for the time being if we don't."

Xin Nian felt a strange urge to laugh.

The two men talked as they walked, leading their constables to catch up with the running group ahead.

Xin Wenyuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they had all returned. "Daughter, what's wrong with those people behind you? Why do their faces look so scary?"

"They said it was a tumor that came from drinking water."

"Huh?" The people running along were all a little flustered when they heard this.

Xin Mengye covered her face, almost bursting into tears, "Sixth, Sixth Sister, then we..."

During this period, I haven't been eating or sleeping well and I've been walking every day. Although my complexion has deteriorated a lot, at least my face is still clean and I haven't developed any strange things.

The ladies' faces changed upon recalling the sight of those people with tumors they had just seen.

They can't become like this! Waaaaah...

Seeing that these delicate women were about to cry again, Xin Nian shouted, "We're fine! No one is allowed to cry."

She patiently reassured everyone, "We've been drinking very clean groundwater these past few days, which I found myself! What's the panic? Don't you trust me?"

As everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they continued to praise her competence.

"Hurry up, they're coming after us."
