Chapter 331: Guard the entrance of the village to prevent escape, ask the villagers to catch the thi

"Miss, don't be anxious!" Xiaoqin hurriedly followed.

Everyone hurried to follow, and Ding Xirui carefully protected the oil lamp to prevent it from going out.

"Xirui, it seems that there are no more dried clams." An Yumo shouted.

"Ah?" Ding Xirui was surprised and stepped into the kitchen.

"All the dry goods are hanging here, but one package is missing." An Yumo said, pointing at the wall.

"How greedy! You took the most expensive bag!" An Yumo was a little angry. "You didn't consider the other people in the village at all!"

It turned out that the thief was not only interested in the herbs, but also the kitchen items. Before entering the main house, he had already taken away the heaviest clams.

"Let's go back to the house first. It's cold here." Ding Xirui was also angry, but the health of the person in front of him was more important.

"No, we can't put these things in the kitchen. If someone gets their eyes on them, not only the villagers, but we may soon have nothing to eat." An Yumo was angrily taking down several packages of dry goods from the wall one by one and carrying them back to the main house.

"There is no lock. We can use a table to prop up the door from now on. That way, we can hear any noise." Xiaohu said.

"okay."

After closing the door and tidying up, no one was in the mood to go to sleep, but considering the workload during the day, Lin Mingxuan asked everyone to go back to sleep and recuperate.

"Wait a minute." Ding Xirui suddenly thought of a problem, "If the thief left the village and went into the city early in the morning, it would be troublesome to find him later."

"Yes." Xiaohu nodded frantically, "Doctor Ding, don't worry, Xiaobao and I will go to the village entrance to guard it. We can't let him go."

"Thank you both for your hard work. It will probably be another hour before dawn. Put on some thick clothes and wrap yourself in a blanket."

"Okay, don't worry."

"Thank you for your hard work." Others came into the room and helped them get quilts and thick clothes. Chenpi even took out the hat from his package and handed it to Xiaohu.

The two of them put on their clothes, took their quilts, and carried lanterns to the village entrance, while the others returned to their rooms to rest. An Yumo brought a few bags of dry goods back to his room and placed them in front of his pillow.

"No one should come again." Ding Xirui said as he lay down. "After daybreak, ask more people for help. No matter who it is, we must catch him."

"Oh, if I had known I would have rushed out when I heard the noise."

"Don't be like this!" Ding Xirui sat up, "Didn't you hear what Xiaohu said? He is a strong man. This room is cramped. Even if we have kung fu, we can't use it. What's more, our kung fu is just mediocre."

"Yes, Miss. What if the thief has a knife and hurts someone?"

Ding Xirui grabbed An Yumo's hand with a serious expression:

"Xiaoqin is right. There are no urgent patients in the village now. Even if we are short of medicine or food, we still have horses and can go out to buy them. The most important thing is that we are all fine, so don't worry."

"Okay, okay, I get it. I'm just angry. I'm just talking."

"It's good to know."

Several people lay down again. The sky had begun to change. Ding Xirui closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Even if he couldn't sleep, he had to rest.

In a daze, she heard footsteps at the gate of the courtyard. She opened her eyes and saw that the window was already bright and An Yumo and the others were also awake.

"Get up."

Dressing, folding quilts, boiling water, washing up, today there is hot water, not so sad, but because of what happened at night, everyone is angry. Xiaohu and Xiaobao have not returned yet, Lin Mingxuan took Chenpi to the home of the village head to explain the situation. The village head was embarrassed, called the neighbors around, and went to the village entrance to replace Xiaohu and Xiaobao.

"Doctor Lin, don't worry, this is the only way out of the village, and we won't let it go."

Xiaohu was worried, so he decided to stay and wait. He asked Xiaobao to go back first, and one of them would stay at the entrance of the village to prevent them from being cheated by others.

When Lin Mingxuan returned home, he saw Mrs. Li and five or six other women coming to the entrance of the alley.

"Doctor Lin, I'll bring some people to practice that eight-section thing..."

"Okay, it's Ba Duan Jin, please come in."

After a while, the thin man from yesterday also came to the door. When he saw that they were all women from the village, he backed off.

"Brother, come here and stand next to me." Chenpi said.

Fortunately, there were a few men including Chenpi and Xiaoqiang, otherwise, this big brother would definitely run away.

Ding Xirui arranged a few "newcomers" at the back so that they could learn from the movements of the people in front. With Lin Mingxuan's explanation and commands, the yard became lively.

"Everyone should not only remember the postures and movements, but also the formulas. After we leave, practice them at home every day, two to three times in the morning and evening. Your body will definitely get better day by day." Lin Mingxuan said.

"Okay, Doctor Lin, let us learn it first. We are old and it is easy to forget." Mrs. Li replied with a smile.

"Learn slowly, we will stay for a few more days."

Because some villagers joined in, Lin Mingxuan led everyone to do the Eight-Section Brocade three times. It was cold in the morning, but the body gradually became warm and comfortable. After the last movement, everyone dispersed in the yard, and they all felt more energetic.

"I have something I want to ask you all." Ding Xirui came to the front.

"Doctor Ding, go ahead."

"Tonight, the clinic was robbed. The bag of dried clams hanging on the wall of our kitchen and the Shouyang Dan in the main room were stolen."

"What?" The yard suddenly exploded. Several sisters-in-law and the thin brother felt angry and ashamed.

"Who is the wicked person who actually stole here?"

"Yes, the consultation is free, why would you steal?"

“How heartless.”

Lin Mingxuan coughed twice and continued, "So, we need everyone's help to find the thief."

"Doctor Lin, our village is so small. Let's ask the head of the village to help us search every house."

Lin Mingxuan cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry to bother you all. The thief yesterday was a strong man. He was hit in the stomach and forehead. There should be scars. Please help keep an eye on him."

"The dried clams he stole have a strong smell and fragrance. If he uses dried clams to cook, his secret will definitely be exposed," An Yumo added.

Mrs. Li and the others nodded. "No problem. There are only so many people in the village. It won't take much time to check them one by one."

"Correct."

"I want to see who is so heartless."

"But," a sister-in-law suddenly glanced in the direction of the village entrance, "Maybe the thief has escaped. We need to go and check."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, there are people guarding it and no one can get out." Ding Xirui smiled slightly.

"That's good." The sister-in-law breathed a sigh of relief, "You guys are really thoughtful."

After discussing the matter, the villagers went home. Lin Mingxuan and his colleagues divided the work and prepared for the new day. There was no more Shouyangdan, so they took the remaining herbs and made some more. They lit the stove and boiled the medicine according to the needs of different patients, waiting for them to drink after breakfast. In the kitchen, they picked the spinach and put it in the pot, cut the radish into shreds and mixed it with flour. After a while, the fragrance came out...
