Crossing the famine, relying on a spiritual spring to support the entire village

"Lure the snake out of its hole? How?" Su Nian'an raised her eyebrows frivolously.

Chu Ruohuai curled the corners of his mouth and showed a meaningful smile: "Come closer to my ear."

Su Nian'an leaned forward and listened carefully to his words. She first looked at him with wide eyes in surprise, then looked at Chu Ruohuai with some admiration.

Perhaps this is the only way to know who is behind this.

Chu Ruohuai's eyes were deep. Was the person who had infected him with the plague in his previous life also the one behind this?

Just at dawn, there was another knock on Su Nian'an's cabin. He was tested for symptoms.

That afternoon, news came that Guogai's plague had not healed and was even worse than before. He was in a state of exhaustion, looking as if he was terminally ill, without a trace of life.

The doctors were in a panic, and everyone else was also in a panic. However, in the evening, Guo Gai's body turned cold and there were no signs of life.

"No! My son!" Wu's miserable and desolate roar spread throughout the Axe Mountain.

Doctor Liu said sadly: "If you are infected with the plague, you must be cremated. My condolences, Mrs. Pot Cover."

The pain of an old man sending off a young man is unbearable, but we can't just leave the body in the village.

"No, Guogai is just sick. Yesterday he told me that when he gets better, he will grow lots of vegetables and sell them for money. He wants me to enjoy life. Don't come over!" Wu's eyes were erratic, and she was wary of the people who came to drag Guogai away.

This made it difficult for others to start. It was impossible for them to do anything to a mother who had just lost her son.

In this stalemate, Chu Ruohuai appeared behind Wu without knowing when, and pushed the back of his hand against her neck. She relaxed her tense body and fell to the carpet.

Chu Ruohuai glanced at the stunned crowd, picked up a worn-out quilt to cover the pot, and said, "Take the pot lid away."

A few people came to their senses and dragged the body out of the village. The body was killed by plague, so they naturally had to find a remote place to burn it.

Today, like yesterday, there are more than a dozen more infected people.

Now more and more people are infected. The pot lid that was still alive and kicking yesterday has relapsed and died today.

Today's incident has made people's hearts grow colder. Is there really no cure for this plague?

In the days that followed, the plague swept through the entire Axe Village like a gust of wind. Wu's disease also relapsed that day, and he was hanging on for dear life. The people who were first infected no longer showed signs of recovery, but became more and more seriously ill.

There are more and more new infections, and more and more severe cases of the plague. People who were about to be cured of the plague have relapsed one by one. Even Doctor Liu has been infected with the plague. Axe Mountain is filled with an atmosphere of sadness and despair, and people are almost breathless.

The Su family was not spared from this incident and all of them were infected with the plague, including Chu Ruohuai who lived in the same wooden house.

No one complains anymore, because there is no strength or energy

They had lost hope of survival and even stopped taking medicine. Because they were short of manpower, no one could make enough medicine for so many people. The soldiers at the foot of the mountain had suffered heavy losses in the confrontation that day and left Axe Mountain.

They seem to have really been abandoned by God...

"Come on, surround the Axe Village!" The silence of Axe Mountain was broken by a shrill voice.

"Yes!" Then countless officers and soldiers surrounded the entire village densely.

Chen Shitou had never enjoyed such treatment before, and Master Chen really did not lie to him.

The man who had been sitting still in the yard for a long time opened his eyes and looked towards the village gate. He wanted to stand up but he had no strength. Who was outside? Was he here to kill them?

After all, there is no way to cure the plague now. They have no choice but to die. The government will never let them go. The soldiers down the mountain must have heard that they were all infected with the plague and came to kill them.

Chu Ruohuai and Su Nian'an looked at each other when they heard the noise outside the village. Without the morbid fatigue of the past few days, they walked out of the room full of energy.

The two took out their water bags and gave a sip to Wang Wu, who was closest to them.

In an instant, Wang Wu took a deep breath, held back the foul air, and his eyes lit up.

"I think I'm fine!" Wang Wu shouted excitedly, "Su girl, what is this?"

"Speak softly!" Chu Ruohuai said softly, stuffing a whole can of green water into his arms. "Give everyone some to drink, and let everyone go to the back mountain!"

Su Nian'an walked to the wooden house, and the Su family stayed in the wooden house neatly, without any signs of being infected with the plague.

"Brother, Uncle Tian, ​​Mom, Uncle Li and Aunt Li, you all drink this, and let's gather at the back mountain." Su Nian'an pointed to the water tank that had been prepared in the wooden house and said

"Okay, An'er, don't worry." Everyone nodded.

When Aunt Sun drank the potion, she was shocked and asked Wang with rapid breathing, "Ping An Niang, what is this?"

Wang thought she was so happy that she smiled and said, "This is the antidote to the plague, Aunt Sun, drink it and go to the back mountain quickly."

After Wang finished speaking, she took the bowl and went to feed another person, leaving Aunt Sun standing there dumbfounded.

"Listen up, everyone inside! Today, more than a hundred people in Axe Village have been infected with the plague. We have received an order from the Geli County Office to burn down Axe Mountain." Chen Shitou shouted at the top of his voice, "Don't resist in vain. If you don't cooperate, you will be in a state of neither life nor death!"

There was no sound coming from the Axe Village, it was like a dead village.

Chen Shitou looked depressed: "What happened? Did the people inside escape?"

There was no screaming

"That's impossible, Master! We searched the area thoroughly and found no trace of bandits, only fields."

"Haha, those fields are now owned by our Geli County Government. We will go back and take away all the mature crops!" Chen Shitou thought to himself that the plague was so serious that the disease must have been fatal, so it was normal that there was no sound.

Su Nian'an climbed up to the pavilion at the gate of the village and saw Chen Shitou's familiar face. He was furious. He turned out to be a traitor!

"Chen Shitou! You're a traitor!" Su Nian'an shouted, "Brothers and sisters in Axe Village live together every day, why are you trying to kill us!"

Chen Shitou looked up when he heard the voice, staring at her fiercely with eyes like a venomous snake, and laughed loudly: "Su Nian'an, you are infected with the plague! I am getting rid of this harm for the people! I want you to avoid harming others. You can't be so selfish!"

Su Nian'an spat out, "Bah, what do you mean by magnificent? Aren't you from Axe Village? What qualifications do you have to criticize us?"

"I left Axe Village long before the plague. Have you forgotten? I went out to buy things with the second and third in command?" Chen Shitou smiled grimly.

Su Nian'an just remembered that Chen Youqian did have the habit of shopping every half a month, and that was indeed the day for shopping.

"Where are the second and third in command?" Su Nian'an's heart tightened. Chen Shitou colluded with others to frame Axe Village, so would Chen Dali and Chen Youqian be killed?
