As a result, there were only a few people surrounding the two of them.

"Guess who will win?" Chen Wanruo leaned close to Xiaochun's ear and asked curiously.

Xiaochun: “…” How could she not know that her young lady had such a hobby?

The two little boys are already pitiful enough, but she is still gloating over their misfortune.

Originally, she didn't want to answer her question, but seeing that she was in high spirits, she couldn't bear to disturb her "interest".

So he nodded, pointed at someone randomly and said, "Let's pick him. He should win."

As soon as he finished speaking, the stick in the boy's hand broke the stick in Shi Ge's hand.

Then, Shi Ge pointed the stick in his hand directly at the boy's neck and said in a loud voice:

"You lost, and I don't want to chase you away, but I have a little brother here who is sick. You want to take your brother to sleep over there tonight. Is that a problem?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the boy he had pointed at just now turned over and quickly avoided Shi Ge's stick.

Then he started attacking Brother Shi from his side.

However, Brother Shi reacted quickly and turned sideways to fight with him again.

I have to say that although the little boy's martial arts skills are not as good as Brother Shi's, his reaction is quick enough.

If he is trained, he should be no worse than Brother Shi in front of him.

But at the moment, it seems that he is no match for Brother Shi.

"Miss, who do you think will win?" Xiaochun couldn't help but ask.

Judging from the situation just now, although the two people fought, it was obvious that no one would be killed.

It is precisely because there won't be such bloody things that Xiaochun is somewhat interested in watching it further.

"Of course it's Brother Shi!"

"I don't think so." Xiaochun retorted.

Ever since her young lady woke up, she had also been practicing martial arts with her for a few days.

You can still see something.

As it stands now, it is Brother Shi who has the upper hand.

"Oh? Let's wait and see." Chen Wanruo replied in a good mood.

Xiaochun: “…” Why did she feel that her young lady was in a too good a mood?

Of course, Xiaochun soon felt slapped in the face.

Because Brother Shi quickly stopped the boy again.

This time the boy didn't say anything else, but nodded to Brother Shi, and said with an expression of being willing to admit defeat: "I lose, and I accept it sincerely."

After saying that, he waved to the boys behind him.

Then he walked towards the location that Brother Shi had just pointed to.

Obviously, that was the most dilapidated place in the temple. It was visible to the naked eye that the tiles on the roof had been hollowed out.

"We won, Brother Shi won, quickly carry our sixth brother over there." One of the boys said anxiously.

Then he took out a worn wooden bucket from his arms, as if he was going to fetch some water.

Seeing this, Xiaochun couldn't help but turn his head to look at his young lady.

If she guessed correctly, her young lady would definitely take action.

But she was very curious why the young lady didn't take action now.

Chen Wanruo naturally knew what Xiaochun was thinking, so she stretched out her index finger and shook it, then said, "No hurry, wait a little longer!"

She needed to know what these kids would do.

Although she wanted to take them all into the Chen Mansion, she also needed to ensure their character.

If they were just some selfish villains, or a group of people who were afraid of death, then there would be no need for her to do so.

She is not a charity, and she is not that generous when it comes to things that have no benefits.

"Miss, do you think that little boy has the same high fever as people do nowadays?" Butler Li said worriedly.

"What do you mean?" Chen Wanruo asked curiously.

"Miss, you don't know?"

"What should I know?"

Looking at Chen Wanruo's expression, Butler Li knew that she probably didn't know yet.

That’s right, she has been very busy these days, how could she know?

So he told him everything that had happened in the capital city in the past few days.

"You mean, many people have had fever for no reason recently?"

After listening, Chen Wanruo asked with a frown.

"There weren't so many at the beginning, but suddenly in the past two days, there have been more cases. At first it was just coughing, but then it became fever."

"Didn't the pharmacy prescribe any medicine?" Chen Wanruo asked curiously.

"Of course there are. Miss, look over there. The waiter in the herbal medicine shop is busy all day long."

Following the direction of Butler Li's finger, Chen Wanruo actually saw the long dragon.

"Isn't that Baicaotang? Are all the people lining up there?"

Because there are many medicinal herbs planted in the space, Chen Wanruo is basically familiar with all the medicine shops in the capital.

"Yes, that is Baicaotang. Most of the people who were watching the excitement here just now have gone to queue over there."

Hearing this, Chen Wanruo fell into deep thought.

It has not rained for a while here in the capital, but it is just a drought, so there shouldn't be a plague.

That’s right, Chen Wanruo suspected that they were infected with the plague.

It was hard for her not to be suspicious when a large number of people were coughing and having fever for no apparent reason.

But where did this epidemic come from?

If she remembered correctly, most of the causes of plague at this time were due to the weather.

But now it is clear that this cause has been ruled out.

Thinking of this, Chen Wanruo strode towards the ruined temple.

However, before she took two steps, Butler Li caught up with her and stopped her with his hands spread out, saying, "Miss, you can't go in!"

"Why?"

"Some people in the capital are already saying that this is an epidemic. This epidemic is contagious. Once infected, the consequences will be disastrous."

If the eldest daughter really gets infected, the entire Chen family will be buried with her.

As a butler, how could he let such a thing happen?

"Butler Li, have you forgotten that I, your young lady, am a doctor?" Chen Wanruo said with a smile.

Chen Wanruo also knew that Butler Li’s starting point was that he was doing it for her own good.

So, she didn't mean to blame him.

"Miss, if it is really an epidemic, even if you are a doctor, then..."

Xiaochun didn't continue with the rest of the words, but the meaning was very clear.

Even if Chen Wanruo was a doctor, she could not escape death.

Throughout history, if an epidemic broke out, the whole city would be burned to death.

It is impossible to burn the entire capital city now, so the only thing that can be done is to burn people.

"Don't worry. Since I plan to go up and take a look, I naturally have my own way." Chen Wanruo said frankly.

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the ruined temple without thinking.
