The rake's wife and his mother were called out.

"Wife, where is your husband?" Old Man Lin asked angrily.

The rake's wife shook her head with red eyes: "I don't know either. He wasn't here last night. I really don't know..."

Old Man Lin looked at the Rake Lady again.

The rake mother raised her eyelids and said with some gloating: "My son is not here, what's wrong?"

She was afraid, but also a little proud, because her two sons were not there and had escaped.

If anything happens to the people in the inn, the Lin family will have successors.

The current issue is not whether Brother Rake is here or not.

Most importantly, how to get out of here!

Old Man Lin no longer looked at Ji Xiaobei. He also didn't like this woman. If her child hadn't been sick, Baodun and the other children wouldn't have been sick either.

Now three or four children are sick.

There was also a thin woman who was feeling unwell. At this critical moment, who would dare to say that they were sick?

Even if it's uncomfortable, hold on.

Since the guards didn't even give Lord Tong face, there was no need for Ji Xiaobei to go over and run into a wall.

Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted.

"If we hand over this woman and her child, we'll be fine, right?"

"right……"

"It's all because of them. What kind of crappy medicine are they giving? What's the use of drinking it? The children are still sick..."

"It's all a delaying tactic..."

The men rushed forward and surrounded Ji Xiaobei.

Zhao Yan and Jiaojiao, who were looking down from the second floor, hugged the children tightly.

Mrs. Huang held a table leg horizontally by her neck and went downstairs with a lot of thumps.

Seeing Huang Po's heroic aura, Zhao Yan also straightened her chest. She had already died once, so what was there to be afraid of?

Even if I got the plague and died with my child and sister, I wouldn't have thought about it anymore.

The thin man who was mixed in the crowd stood quietly beside Ji Xiaobei.

He clenched his fists tightly and swept his cold eyes across the man's face, as if he would tear anyone into pieces if they came any closer.

Ji Xiaobei quietly shook his head at Lang Ning.

Lang Ning moved a little further away from Ji Xiaobei, vigilantly observing the actions of the people around him.

A young man in his twenties suddenly jumped out, shouting: "My child is sick, my wife is sick too, it's all your fault, I will fight for you..."

Just when he was about to rush towards Ji Xiaobei, Lang Ning appeared behind him and grabbed his arm.

Only a click was heard.

"Ah..." the man screamed.

Everyone's eyes turned to Lang Ning.

Lang Ning said coldly: "We are all on the same boat now. If you hurt them, do you think you can get out?"

The man didn't know whether he was in pain or anxious, he squatted on the ground, tears streaming down his face.

Lord Tong stood up and tried to remain calm while persuading them in a gentle voice, "Don't worry, everyone. I am an official appointed by the imperial court. We were ordered to come here to cultivate the land. It won't be easy for the Yongchang government to punish us. We must get permission from above..."

"Yes, Lord Tong is a second-rank official, which means he is higher in rank than the prefect of Yongchang. How can they dispose of him at will..."

Ye Tianguan followed suit.

Master Tong silently thought to himself: I am no longer a second-rank Yuan official, I have been demoted...

But it doesn’t matter, if you say it’s second grade, then it’s second grade!

Ye Tianguan asked Lin Laowa to take his people back first.

Old Lin had no choice but to glare at Ji Xiaobei and take his men back.

"Master Tong, Officer Ye Tian, ​​I have something to tell you."

Ji Xiaobei said lightly.

Ye Tianguan followed Ji Xiaobei into the hall. Mr. Tong was unwilling to be summoned by a woman. He didn't want to go, but was afraid that Ji Xiaobei would have some good ideas.

He wondered in his mind, if this woman knew there was a plague, why didn't she run away in advance?

Along the way, this woman had many ideas and a smart mind, and she solved many problems.

He also went in.

Ji Xiaobei ignored everyone else and sat on a chair in the front hall of the inn.

Lord Tong stood aside, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Ye Tianguan brought a chair over for him.

"Master Tong, Officer Ye Tian, ​​I don't know the situation of the people outside, but I can guarantee that the children and adults here will get better after taking the medicine given by my doctor Huang in five days. Those who are not sick will be strengthened and healthy after taking it, without any side effects!"

Ji Xiaobei finished speaking calmly.

Ye Tianguan reacted: "That means we just need to get through this period of time peacefully?"

Ji Xiaobei nodded.

Lord Tong pursed his lips in disdain. He didn't believe it. This plague had alarmed the people in the government office, so it must be very serious.

"Miss Ji, do you dare to guarantee the lives of more than a hundred people?" Lord Tong asked condescendingly.

Ji Xiaobei stood up, shook her skirt and said, "Yes!"

Lang Ning stood beside Ji Xiaobei and said coldly: "Master Tong, there is a plague outside. It is not a good thing that we are isolated here. It may not be a good thing to go out now."

Ji Xiaobei gave Lang Ning a thumbs up in his heart.

This kid is good, he is a great substitute.

Master Tong asked aggressively: "Who are you? Do you have the right to speak here?"

Seeing Master Tong blaming Lang Ning, Ji Xiaobei said coldly, "Isn't what he said right?"

Ji Xiaobei's eyes were distant and cold, and she had an arrogant attitude. If you didn't know her, you would think she was Lord Tong's boss!

Lord Tong had no rebuttal.

Ji Xiaobei turned and left.

Leaving the front hall, she spoke a few words to Lang Ning and went upstairs.

Lang Ning slipped into the backyard, jumped over the wall, and disappeared silently.

These days, Lang Ning has been recovering from his injuries.

Seeing that his injuries were almost healed, Fu Jichang and He Ye left with peace of mind.

Ji Xiaobei went upstairs and told him what was happening outside.

Comforted Zhao Yan and Jiaojiao.

Huang Po quietly pulled Ji Xiaobei aside.

"Bei, we don't have many herbs left. What should we do? We can't just let them drink plain water, can we?" Grandma Huang said with a blink of her eyes.

She also knew that the medicines she prescribed would not have much effect on the condition.

It is clearly written in the medical book that Ji Xiaobei gave me.

Last night, she asked Lian Feng to read it to her, and it was indeed written like this.

"I asked Lang Ning to go out and buy it. He will be back soon. Don't worry..." said Ji Xiaobei.

Of course Mrs. Huang was relieved, regardless of whether she could buy it or not.

As long as the medicine soup has some medicinal flavor and some color, it is still a medicine soup.

Ji Xiaobei watched Huang Po go down, and she went to find Lian Feng.

Lian Feng said confidently: "Miss Ji, this Black Lotus Divine Water does not contain any special substances. I have tested it five or six times..."

Ji Xiaobei believes in Lian Feng's skills.

Could it be that the Black Lotus Cult is selling water to make money?

What is the relationship between the government and the Black Lotus Sect?

She couldn't figure it out, so she asked Lang Ning to go out and find out the news.

I can’t figure it out, I can’t figure it out!
