In the book, I was fed by my sister
Chapter 117 Seeking Medicine at Midnight
"Be careful, the snow is falling." People set up ladders and used poles to poke the snow down.
This place didn't have many snow days in previous years, and the short snow scene always brought joy to people. Once the sun came out, the snow gradually melted and turned into water to nourish the earth.
This deeply rooted idea also led to the fact that when it snowed in the previous few days, no one thought about sweeping the snow off the roof.
The thatched house simply couldn't bear it.
So almost all the collapsed houses were thatched houses.
If the thatched house collapses, it will hardly hurt anyone.
But this disaster happened in the middle of the night, and the thatched roof and heavy snow crushed the people underneath.
Many people died of hypothermia that night.
Because the hall was not very big, Li Wanshu asked those who had no place to live to move in. The rest of the people temporarily returned to their own homes, and repeatedly reminded them to remember to sweep the snow off the roof in time.
The disaster has already happened, and people can only put away their sadness and wait for rescue from the court.
However, the villagers of Lihua Village received no rescue and the heavy snow seemed to have no end.
The ground was frozen hard, and it was difficult to break the cold soil with a shovel. The dead could not be buried in time.
People's bodies gradually became unable to withstand the severe cold.
Listening to people's prayers, Song Li felt as if she had returned to the end of the world.
When zombies surround a city, the people with nowhere to go can only pray that the city walls can be stronger.
Qin Zhongyuan looked at Song Ran in front of him, shook his head solemnly and said, "I don't have any medicine to treat the cold here. This morning, the village chief and several strong men in the village braved the heavy snow to go to the city to buy medicine. Now we can only wait for them to come back. Drink some scallion and black bean soup first to sweat, I hope it can relieve the symptoms."
Song Ran coughed repeatedly and said hoarsely, "Cough, cough, cough. Okay, I'll wait a little longer."
She remembered that she tried to pull the donkey cart out this morning, but the cart was stuck in the thick snow and could not move at all.
Now, going to the city to buy medicine can only be done on foot. She couldn't help but feel a little worried, wondering if she could wait for them to come back in the evening.
Song Li held her sister's hand tightly, her eyes full of concern: "Sister, it's snowing so heavily outside, let's go back first."
Seeing this, Su Xiaoxiao half-knelt in front of Song Ran and said, "Let me carry you back. Your shoes and socks are wet. If you stay outside like this, I'm afraid your condition will get worse."
Every day, Su Xiaoxiao would take spring water from the space, add it to the medicinal soup for Song Ran to drink, and add it to the ginger soup in the hall every day.
But this is not a medicine after all, it can only relieve the symptoms but not cure them.
Song Ran lay on Su Xiaoxiao's back and asked softly, "Are Lin Shiji and the others okay?"
"Everyone is lying down." Su Xiaoxiao replied. She thought that she must have good physical fitness because she drank and soaked in the space spring water every day.
Even Damai and the little girl Song Li have not caught a cold yet, probably because of this reason.
But others were not so lucky.
Song Ran asked again: "Is there still no news about Lin Shijia?"
Su Xiaoxiao sighed: "He said before that he would return home after the results were announced. I had planned to wait for him to come back and tell him about moving out. Now there is no news from him, and I don't know if he has had any accidents."
As the two were talking, Song Li suddenly pointed at a figure in the snow in the distance and shouted, "That's the village chief!"
She immediately ran over and asked anxiously, "Village Chief, did you get the medicine?"
Su Xiaoxiao followed closely.
Li Wanshu looked at the three people and shook his head in disappointment: "No, I need to go to the hall to talk about something, you guys can come with me."
As he said that, Li Wanshu picked up Song Li and walked towards the hall.
In the hall, a group of people were waiting for medicine, but when they saw Li Wanshu's empty package, they all showed disappointed expressions.
Li Wanshu explained: "Some important people came to the city, and they set up checkpoints far away. We couldn't even get close to the city, let alone go into the city to buy medicine."
"What big shot? He even sealed off the city, so why doesn't he care about our lives? He even won't let us buy medicine?" The villagers complained.
"It is said that... the Son of Heaven"
When everyone heard this, their hearts skipped a beat.
Why would the emperor come to Fengxian?
The emperor is heading south. Does that mean the north can no longer be defended?
Everyone looked grim, and Grandma Gu and others could hardly stand.
"The officer said that the city is short of vegetables and firewood..." Li Wanshu continued.
"You promised to turn it in?!"
"What if you don't agree? What if you agree? Those soldiers will come into the village sooner or later. Hide your things well."
"Then...will the neighboring countries attack us?" another voice came.
"I don't know. It's snowing so heavily now. It might stop them from moving south."
"They have strong soldiers and sharp swords, why don't they go to the mountains to chop wood?"
"That's right! Village chief, you have to think of a solution!"
"I..." Li Wanshu fell down due to exhaustion before he could finish his words.
Everyone worked together to lift him onto the couch, and then ran out to call Doctor Qin.
Doctor Qin came, checked the patient's condition, and shook his head, "It depends on fate."
At night, Song Ran's cough symptoms became more severe.
After comforting her sister to sleep, Song Li quietly walked out of the house.
At this moment, heavy snow was falling, blocking her vision, and the surroundings were silent, making it difficult for her to walk.
She walked forward until she entered the woods, where she felt a little more relaxed.
After wandering in the woods for a while, Song Li finally arrived at the city gate.
Just as Li Wanshu and others said, soldiers were stationed one mile outside the city. She looked up at the city, which was brightly lit, and she felt extremely warm just looking at it.
Song Li crawled in through the dog hole and found that the city was only covered with a thin layer of snow, which must have just fallen.
Relying on her memory, Song Li found the largest pharmacy in the city. Since she didn't know the medicine, she packed up all the herbs and dragged them underground.
Fortunately, her supernatural power has now reached the seventh level, otherwise she would not be able to cut through the hard soil.
Carrying the medicinal herbs, Song Li returned to the village. It was already midnight.
She threw the herbs in Doctor Qin's yard, waking him up from his dream.
At first, Doctor Qin thought that the house had collapsed, so he got up in a hurry to check, only to find a small mountain of medicinal herbs piled in the yard.
"Grandpa, I'm not dreaming." Qin Shiyao said in surprise.
"I don't know which deity has appeared. My dear grandson, do you know Bupleurum?"
"Bupleurum, Saposhnikovia, Peony, Licorice, and Ginger are used to treat colds. Grandpa, are you reciting this correctly?"
"Yes, yes, let's look for it quickly, and make it as soon as possible and send it to them."
Song Li stood outside the house waiting until the snow piled up to her shoulders.
Until Qin Zhongyuan opened the door, she hurried forward: "Grandpa Qin, my sister is sick."
Qin Zhongyuan was a little surprised. How come someone came to ask for medicine just as he opened the door?
He recognized this little girl, she was weak and couldn't get out of bed half a year ago. Looking at her hair covered with snow, he felt so distressed.
"I'll scoop you a bowl, and you can take it back and give it to your sister."
He thought about it and was afraid that the medicine would be spilled if he carried it in the snow.
He thought about it and asked his grandson to bring a kettle and fill it.
"When you get home, pour it into a bowl and give it to your sister. You should also drink half a bowl, okay?"
Song Li took the medicine, said thank you, and rushed into the darkness without looking back.
Song Ran felt a pair of cold hands touching his face and opened his eyes with difficulty: "Little darling, why are your hands so cold? Remember to cover yourself with the quilt."
"Sister, Doctor Qin has brought the medicine. Take it while it's hot."
Song Ran was in a daze due to fever at this time. After drinking a bowl of medicine, he was immediately covered in sweat.
It was not until dawn that she fell into a peaceful sleep.
