In my 40s, the trading system took me flying
Chapter 67 Flood washed away the Dragon King Temple
Xu Xiaoya, who was gnawing on a chicken leg, suddenly sneezed. She rubbed her nose and looked puzzled.
"Dog's nose is running, touch its fur, and all the evil spirits will go away!"
Mother Xu walked along Xu Xiaoya's back and looked at her worriedly.
It is the coldest time of the year now, and a slight cold can take a person's life. They don't want anything to happen to Xu Xiaoya.
Father Xu stuffed Xu Xiaoya into his cotton-padded jacket, fearing that she had really caught a cold. They had left in a hurry last night and it was freezing cold. If she caught a cold, they would be scolded to death by Old Lady Xu when they got home.
Xu Xiaoya rubbed her nose, reached out and stuffed the chicken leg in her hand into Xu's mother's mouth, then said: "I'm fine, I just sneezed. I guess someone is talking about me!"
"It must be grandma, grandma misses me!"
Xu Xiaoya found a reason that she thought was reasonable, and Xu's father nodded.
Thinking of his mother back home, Xu's father really had no way to refute. According to Xu's mother's personality, she would definitely miss Xu Xiaoya very much.
At the current speed, she could make it back for the New Year, but halfway through, more and more people were stopping the road for inspections, and her intuition told Xu Xiaoya that something was wrong.
"Let's not wait any longer, let's take another route!"
Xu's father and mother had experienced escape in the past, so naturally they didn't want to wait any longer. It is said that delaying will lead to unexpected events, and no one knows what will happen on the way.
Xu Xiaoya checked the system. The system had been upgraded recently, and she could see the map of the surrounding area again.
Based on the principle of "if you don't use it, it's a waste", Xu Xiaoya pointed in a direction and told Xu's father.
Because she couldn't reveal the matter of the space in front of Xu's father and mother, Xu Xiaoya could only exchange some food for them. At least these things could be covered by the trading system.
But after walking for a while, Xu Xiaoya could still feel that her parents' physical strength had declined significantly.
In addition, it snowed a few days ago, and the road was covered with snow, making it really difficult to walk.
Xu Xiaoya took out a sled. Xu's father was very excited. He asked Xu's mother and Xu Xiaoya to sit on it, and he pulled the sled on the road.
This thing is really suitable for traveling on the snow.
Maybe because she had never played sledding before, Xu Xiaoya was quite excited. However, after sitting for a while and feeling cold, the excitement wore off and she nestled in Xu's mother's arms to sleep.
Apparently, God didn't give them much luck, as they ran into a group of people on horseback.
Xu Xiaoya opened her eyes because she felt something was wrong, and saw that they were surrounded by a group of people on horseback.
"Where are you from?"
One of the horsemen pointed at the sled and asked Xu's father.
Father Xu saw the weapons on their bodies and saw that they were tall and strong. He swallowed his saliva and replied with a pale face: "I did it myself!"
The man on horseback got off his horse, looked at the sled, then at Xu's mother and Xu Xiaoya, and suddenly grinned.
"Don't be afraid, fellow. I want to buy your sled. How much do you think it would cost?"
Father Xu was stunned, but he was too embarrassed to speak. This sled was exchanged by Xu Xiaoya in order to hurry on her way, and it was the kind that could carry people. If there was a horse pulling it in front, it would definitely be faster.
But if he sold the sled, they would have to continue traveling on foot.
When he was hesitating whether to agree, he saw the weapon exposed at the man's waist and gave a wry smile.
How could he possibly negotiate terms with these people? "If you guys want one, I'll just give it to you. One sled, and I'll make another one when I get home!"
The man on horseback didn't take it away directly. Instead, he threw a few dollars to Xu's father and said, "We are soldiers, not bandits. We won't steal this from you. If we weren't in a hurry to send someone away, we wouldn't sell it to you!"
It was only then that Father Xu saw that behind the man on horseback, someone was holding a person and placing him on the sled, and that person's condition was very abnormal.
Father Xu immediately turned his head away and didn't dare to continue reading, for fear of getting into trouble.
It was originally just a small transaction, and they just had to get out of the way, but Xu Xiaoya suddenly called out to the man on horseback: "Uncle, does he have a fever?"
The man on horseback didn't expect that Xu's father and mother didn't dare to say a word, but the little girl was very brave and not afraid of him.
"How did you tell?"
Xu Xiaoya leaned over to take a look at the person on the sled. How could she see? It was just that after the system upgrade, it could actually do basic analysis of people. The basic data of this person were terribly low, and there were all kinds of damage that continued to reduce health.
Although she complained that the system was unreliable, this was not a game world, so why give her character attributes?
But when she saw the people on the sled, she realized how powerful this ability was.
"I have some antipyretic medicine. Do you want it? I can buy it with just a few dollars!"
Xu Xiaoya took out a small paper bag with a serious look on her face.
If she wasn't so young, the men on horseback would have thought she was a charlatan.
But Xu's father's face changed. He knew too well the value of the medicine that Xu Xiaoya could produce, and he couldn't help but worry that Xu Xiaoya would get into trouble.
"What if your medicine doesn't work?"
Although the man on horseback didn't believe that a baby could get any antipyretic medicine, he still asked subconsciously when he saw Xu Xiaoya's bright eyes.
Xu Xiaoya pointed at the person on the sled and said, "He's almost dead. You can't wait to see a doctor anyway, so why not give it a try? If the medicine works, you can always see a doctor!"
Xu's mother wanted to cover Xu Xiaoya's mouth, but Xu Xiaoya stopped her by pulling her wrist.
She didn't suddenly feel kind, but she knew the identity of the unconscious person. There was a name in the character attributes, and this person looked very similar to someone else. Xu Xiaoya was just taking a gamble.
The man on horseback hesitated, but after a moment he took out five dollars and handed it to Xu Xiaoya.
Xu Xiaoya smiled and handed the medicine to the man.
"Uncle, feed him one pill. Within an incense stick of time, he'll start sweating. At this point, you need to keep giving him water. His fever will subside soon. Then he can take another white pill, and he should be able to hold on until you can find a doctor!"
If these words had not come from the mouth of a little baby, everyone would have thought that he was a serious old doctor.
The men on horseback all doubted Xu Xiaoya's credibility, but Xu Xiaoya looked at them with a smile, not feeling guilty at all.
At this time, Xu's father and mother had no idea what to do. They were just ordinary people, and the outside world was very chaotic with all kinds of people, which made Xu Xiaoya seem special.
The man on horseback glanced around and saw a dilapidated temple nearby. Since it needed to be renovated anyway, he asked his men to collect firewood, make a fire and boil some snow water.
Xu Xiaoya pulled Xu's father and mother over.
She didn't want to be cold, and her intuition told her that these people meant no harm to her.
Xu's father and mother looked at Xu Xiaoya worriedly, but Xu Xiaoya was not afraid at all. She even reminded Xu's father and mother: "Dad and Mom, don't be afraid, nothing will happen!"
Xu Xiaoya pointed at the unconscious man and asked them to take a closer look: "Look, does he look like Uncle Zhou?"
At first, Xu's father didn't understand who Uncle Zhou Xu Xiaoya was talking about, but he soon realized it.
Zhou Linchao's father.
The man who saved their entire family's lives.
Looking closely, there is indeed some resemblance, with both eyebrows and eyes showing a firm and righteous spirit.
Xu Xiaoya's voice was not loud, but the man on horseback heard it. He looked at Xu Xiaoya in surprise and said, "Little girl, what's the name of the Uncle Zhou you're talking about?"
Xu Xiaoya shook her head: "I don't know Uncle Zhou's name, but I know Uncle Zhou's son is called Zhou Linchao!"
The man on horseback was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh and said, "You actually trusted that brat Xiao Chao. It seems I didn't trust the wrong person today!"
It turned out that the man on horseback was Zhou Linchao's uncle, and the unconscious person was Zhou Linchao's great-grandfather. They had just killed the Japanese devils, and Uncle Zhou's injuries were caused by the Japanese devils.
Perhaps after learning that these people were the brothers of their savior, Xu's father and mother finally felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief. They also took out the food they brought and roasted it on the fire.
These were all exchanged by Xu Xiaoya using the trading system with the gifts she received from the Su family. In fact, they were all meat patties that Old Lady Xu had prepared for her in advance and placed in her space.
If you roast it a little, it will become crispy and fragrant, and it is the best dry food.
Uncle Zhou was also a straightforward person. There were more than ten people in their group. They had just had a fight and were in a hurry to get on with their journey. They had not eaten anything at all. Now, each of them was given a meat pie.
Everyone was smiling.
Xu Xiaoya was young, so she went up to Uncle Zhou and asked how they came to fight the Japanese.
"It's because the Japanese have captured our brothers. This time we are going to rescue Brother Lin!"
Uncle Zhou is a tough man with a heroic character. After recognizing Xu Xiaoya's identity, he did not hide much from her. He probably thought that Xu Xiaoya would not leak the secret.
When Xu Xiaoya heard Brother Lin, her heart skipped a beat.
I thought of the two people who were almost killed by Erni and Yamamoto. I thought they were just revolutionaries. Could it be that they were from important backgrounds?
"Lin Dahu?"
Xu Xiaoya spoke uncertainly.
Uncle Zhou stood up suddenly: "How did you know?"
Although Uncle Zhou was still skeptical when Xu Xiaoya offered the medicine, he saw his elder brother sweating profusely. The heat on his face slowly subsided as he continued to sweat. After hearing Lin Dahu's name, all his doubts disappeared.
"Well, last night I found a bloody man in an alley next to the moat in the provincial capital. His name is Lin Dahu!"
Uncle Zhou anxiously grabbed Xu Xiaoya's arm and asked, "How is he? Is he dead?"
Xu Xiaoya knew that Uncle Zhou was anxious, but her shoulder was very painful when he held it with his big hands.
"I don't know. When I found him, he was still alive. My uncle had already taken him away to see a doctor!"
Uncle Zhou was very anxious and wanted to go to the city to find someone.
Fortunately, Uncle Zhou woke up at this time. He just had no strength. Although he had a high fever and couldn't speak, he could still hear things.
Of course, I heard the conversation between Xu Xiaoya and Zhou Xiaoshu.
"Little girl, who is your uncle?"
Uncle Zhou was fed a lot of warm water and was now able to speak. Although he was asking Xu Xiaoya, his eyes fell on Xu's mother. Then his pupils constricted and his breathing became disordered.
