The wife of two taels of silver
Chapter 100 Xiaohuai Village
The north wind was howling and the snow was falling heavily and fast.
Apart from Gu An and Lin Haitang on horseback, there was no one else around, not even a bird.
The whole world was covered with thick snow. Lin Haitang turned her head and looked back, and saw straight horseshoe prints on the ground. The snow was falling so heavily that in a short while, the horseshoe prints were covered by new snow and the original marks could not be seen.
Lin Haitang looked up at Gu An and saw a thin layer of snow on his eyelashes. Lin Haitang reached out and pulled up Gu An's hat.
Gu An looked down, pulled Lin Haitang into his arms with one hand, and tightened his cloak to ensure that Lin Haitang would not be blown by the wind.
The two men were covered tightly, with only their eyes showing to see the road.
The winter wind is so biting and cold that no matter how tightly you wrap yourself up, you can still feel the cold wind penetrating into your bones.
Lin Haitang and Gu An were going to Xiaohuai Village, where febrile diseases broke out. The first patient was a villager from Xiaohuai Village named Lu Wangcai.
They went to Xiaohuai Village to find out the cause of Lu Wangcai's illness. Lin Haitang had a hunch that once the source of the disease was found, they would be close to curing the febrile disease.
In fact, Lin Haitang had raised this issue with the old gentlemen two months ago. The old gentlemen naturally understood this and said that they had sent people to Xiaohuai Village a long time ago, but found nothing. They could not find the reason why Lu Wangcai got this disease.
During this period, even though the cause could not be found, the authorities never gave up the search and kept sending people to Xiaohuai Village to search.
Lin Haitang and Gu An discussed it and decided not to wait around any longer. They decided to find the source of the disease themselves. They made some simple preparations, said hello to the old gentlemen, and immediately mounted their horses to set off.
But it was not easy to get out. In the end, Yang Zhiwen acted as a guarantor and talked with the higher-ups for two days before he secured a place for the two of them.
Lin Haitang is the only doctor who has the hope of curing febrile diseases. Naturally, the higher-ups will not let Lin Haitang escape so easily. No matter what, in the end, Lin Haitang and Gu An still get out.
Lin Haitang squinted his eyes and looked at the snow blown by the wind, his eyes full of sighs of "What bad luck".
Everything was fine when we set out this morning, but how come it started snowing less than a quarter of an hour into our journey? And it's snowing so hard.
Fortunately, Xiaohuai Village is not far from Zhanglin County, otherwise Lin Haitang felt that he would have frozen to death.
Xiaohuai Village, like Zhanglin County, was completely blocked off, with heavy soldiers guarding outside for fear that people inside would escape.
Almost all the people in Xiaohuai Village had died, with less than fifty people left. These people were lucky enough to survive only after Lin Haitang wrote the prescription.
A thick layer of snow fell on the soldiers. Their spears clashed in mid-air, making a clanging sound and forming a cross. The soldier's voice was a little hoarse: "Who is coming?"
Gu An patted Lin Haitang's waist, motioning her to sit still on the horse. He dismounted, took out the documents in his arms, and handed them to the two soldiers.
Xiaohuai Village is a severely infected area, and no one is allowed to enter without official documents.
A soldier took the document and examined it carefully before putting away his gun and clasping his fists, saying, "Come in, both of you."
Gu An nodded silently, but did not get on the bike again. He held the reins and took Lin Haitang into Xiaohuai Village.
At this time, Xiaohuai Village looked like an uninhabited village. The snow covered the sky and there was no trace of any living creatures around except for the horse hoof prints and Gu An's footprints.
There are not even any rats, it's like a dead city.
Lin Haitang observed the situation around him and felt increasingly cold in his heart.
Lin Haitang and Gu An knew that this time, there was an 80% chance that they would return empty-handed.
Among the remaining living people, there are almost very few who are still sober.
The reason why the patients in Zhanglin County did not become stupid anymore was because of Lin Haitang's spiritual spring water. However, in Xiaohuai Village, no one could produce spiritual spring water anymore.
There is always a loophole in the most careful plan. Lin Haitang really wanted to hit himself to death. How could he forget Xiaohuai Village completely?
At the east end of the village, Lin Haitang met all the remaining living people in Xiaohuai Village.
There is a large courtyard with more than 36 people living there, which is all the living people in Xiaohuai Village now.
What made Lin Haitang feel relieved was that among these thirty-six people, twenty had become fools like Afeng, and sixteen were still clear-headed.
An elderly man, probably in his sixties, walked shakily to Lin Haitang and Gu An with a cane and asked, "Young men, are you doctors?"
The old woman's voice was hoarse and her eyes were numb, as if nothing could stir her eyes again.
Lin Haitang nodded, supported the old lady, and said softly, "Yes, I am a doctor. The medicine you are taking now was prescribed by me. I have been in Zhanglin County before."
As soon as Lin Haitang finished speaking, the old man suddenly grabbed Lin Haitang's hand and said with tears in his eyes: "Living Bodhisattva! You are a living Bodhisattva!"
As she said this, she was about to kneel down. Lin Haitang hurriedly bent down to help her up, but the old lady was very stubborn and strong, and just wouldn't get up. Lin Haitang couldn't help her up for a while.
"Old man! Old man, please don't do this. This won't do!"
At this moment, Gu An grabbed the old man and slowly helped him up.
However, as soon as they helped the person up, others began to kneel down: "Buddha! You must save us!"
"A living Bodhisattva!"
These sober-minded people were calling out "Bodhisattva" and "Bodhisattva" while kneeling on the ground. Seeing this scene, Lin Haitang was really at a loss.
Gu An obviously had not expected such a scene, and he stood there in a daze.
It took Lin Haitang and Gu An a lot of effort just to persuade these people to stand up.
Finally, Lin Haitang said, "Everyone, please stand up quickly. I am here to cure everyone's illness. Only if you stand up can I treat you better."
After saying this, the people of Xiaohuai Village stopped kneeling.
Lin Haitang began to take their pulses one by one, and after each one, she asked Gu An to give them a small cup of spiritual spring water.
Without the bonus of spiritual spring water, the pulse of the people in Xiaohuai Village was much worse than that of the people in Zhanglin County, but after Lin Haitang's prescription came out, no one died.
After recording everyone's situation clearly, Lin Haitang began to look for the first source of the disease.
Everyone knows that the first person to fall ill was Lu Wangcai, but no one knows why he got the disease.
The old woman happened to be Lu Wangxia's neighbor, so Lin Haitang went to her first, and this question really gave her some clarity.
