易人北 update:2022-07-13 16:35
On the afternoon of the fourteenth day of the outbreak of the epidemic.
The heavy rain began to subside and two groups of people appeared on the muddy road.
The first group was the Hornless-men, and there was a team of Horn-people following them about 100 meters away.
The Hornless-men, who were walking in front of them, what they saw the Horn-people in the back, they immediately dodged to the wild bushes beside the road as fast as possible to let the Horn-people pass first.
Master Yi Fan, the leader, glanced sideways at the Hornless-men beside the path, did not stop, and quickly passed them by.
It took them a while before they deemed it safe to get back on the main road.
Yan Mo heard that Master Yi Fan came, and smiled with Yuan Zhan, “Finally."
Yes, they had expected that Master Yi Fan would come here for a long time, because if they changed their mind, they would try to make use of such a personal advantage of someone who was in good terms.
Master Yi Fan turned over to ride the beast and looked at a large number of thatched houses on the left and right sides of the road, with complicated eyes.
“It's so nice to see that you're OK, Mr. Yi Fan thanks the ancestors above!" Yan Mo said happily.
Master Yi Fan heard the word "The Ancestor God" and sighed in his heart, "Thank you for your medicine. If it was not the bottle of medicine you left, I don't know what I will be now."
Yuan Zhan also nodded to Master Yi Fan as a gift, and Master Yi Fan also nodded.
Yan Mo is leading the way, and like a gossiper he casually asked, "What's the situation of the Wuqian city now? Have any dead people appeared? "
"Yes." Master Yi Fan didn't hide, "There have been dead people in the past few days, more and more these days."
Yan Mo frowned. "Did they follow what I told you to tell them if the epidemic appear in the city? That doesn't have much effect, but it should be able to delay for a while. "
"They didn't believe that at first, although by the rime the temple has started to use the method you said, it was too late. What we need now is a large number of drug medicines that can have immediate effect."
“Are the patients segregated?"
"Some of them do, but some don't want to leave home for fear that they will be killed in isolation."
The temple-servant behind saw Yi Fan said so much when he saw the Hornless man. He was a little dissatisfied and wanted to stop him.
Yuan Zhan intentionally or unintentionally blocked him.
The group turned to a large thatched hut.
The temple-servant and some of the Horn-warriors who followed him saw Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan living in such a simple hut, and they were a little disdainful.
The thatched cottage is not big. Seven or eight people can't turn around in it. In the end, only Yan Mo, Yuan Zhan, Xi Yang and Hou Shi enter for the Hornless-men side, and Master Yi Fan, a temple-servant and two guards entered the Hornless-men. The rest were waiting outside.
There are simple wooden stools in the thatched cottage. Yi Fan doesn't pay attention to them either. He casually found a stool to sit down. Yan Mo dragged a stool to sit opposite him. Yuan Zhan comes to him and stands, holding his shoulder with one hand, so that he can understand what Yan Mo can understand.
When Xi Yang and Hou Shi consciously stood in the corner, they still can't turn a corner. Seeing the Horn-people they subconsciously want to avoid or salute them.
\r \r \r
“I'm here on the order of Witch Mo Jie." Master Yi Fan admitted that he does not like other people to play tricks on him, and he will not play tricks on others.
"What do you want to say?"
Yi Fan can't help wondering where the Hornless teenager comes from when he looked at the teenager. This kind of self-confidence and calmness comes from the Horn-people. Besides his own strength, he must have a certain position of power to stand up. No one he knows if any the Hornless-men can reach this level assertiveness.
"The terms you mentioned will never been met, and it is impossible for the witch to agree at once."
“Is the Lord of your city sick?" Yan Mo thought Yi Fan only mentioned the Great Witch and he speculated.
Yi Fan didn't nod or shake his head. “Because many important people in the city are ill, I want to invite you to come to the city. If you can cure them, then there is still room to talk about those conditions. After all, such important things also need the support of these nobles and officials."
"You know I'm not going to that town."
“If you can't see the patients, how can you make the right drug medicine for them?"
"Do you think I can come out alive after I enter the city?" Yan Mo smiled.
Yi Fan looked at Yuan Zhan and said, "You have a good guard."
“But he's only one person." Yan Mo shook his hand. "We can't say the result if we go on like this. Let's take a step back. You are in a hurry to save people, and I don't want to die. Just as I don't have enough herbs here, you bring the herbs I need first. I'll make some drug medicines here. You can see the effect. Then we can talk about other things."
"Herbs are in exchange for prescriptions." The speaker is the temple-servant. His attitude is tough. It's not that he is mentally retarded, but that they have discussed before he came. Yi Fan is good cop and he is the bad cop.
Yan Mo pretended to ponder and said after a long time: “I can tell you a prescription, and even tell you how to safely isolate the patient and dispose of the dirt and take care of the patient in detail, but in addition to sufficient herbs, I need your consent to give us the land within the scope of the current thatched house and allow us to build stone houses on it."
Yan Mo added, "These thatched houses are so fragile that patients need a better environment."
Xi Yang and Hou Shi heard that Yan Mo was going to give the prescription and they felt a little anxious, but Xi Yang was calmer, but he didn't feel that the Horn-people would agree to give them the land, even if they didn't occupy a large area at present.
Yi Fan looked up. “A prescription?"
Yan Mo, "This prescription can treat most patients with cholera, except for cholera emergencies."
"Emergency cholera?" Yi Fan and the temple-servant asked in unison.
“It means that the disease progress is very fast and urgent, and there is no transition period. Almost as soon as symptoms appear, the patient will turn into coma or even go to death. Because of the rapid onset and complex condition, the emergency will lead to the rapid decline of organ functioning, which is difficult to treat, and the mortality rate is very high."
"You don't have an emergency here?"
“If it's found it is treated early." In fact, as long as there is a breath on the patient, if he cannot use medical skills to solve it, he will use faith points to rejuvenate back the human life. But he doesn't do it because saving the Horn-people with belief points will not get belief points, but he is very likely to be killed by the temple of Horn-people and the noble treasure (prescription). It's not a cost-effective business.
That's why he didn't want to go to the Wuqian city. In addition to the security problem, it's because if he went to see it. If there's a way not to treat it, The Guide will definitely punish him. But if he stays here and has so many patients dragging his steps, he will give the prescription to the Horn-people again. Even if he doesn't use faith points to save people, The Guide can't punish him. After all, he can't be separated from the sick and needy and these people are in lack of skills, unless the Horn-people can brazenly bring the patients here regardless of their dignity.
After thinking about it, Yan Mo added: "There are many patients here, and I can't separate myself for a while. If you have patients who can't be treated, you can send them to me, and I will try my best to treat them. Of course, patients have to pay with bone coins or other equivalent items for diagnosis and medicine."
After hearing this, Hou Shi was secretly happy. Yan Mo treated them for free. The Hornless-men will pay a bone coin and everything is like upside down.
Master Yi Fan thought about it again and said, “First of all, tell me what herbs you need and how much you need. I'll ask the Great Witch to collect a batch of drug medicines and send them to me. We need half of them. As for the change of territory proposal, I'll take it back. Whether it can be accepted depends on the Witch and the City Lord. "
Yan Mo: "OK."
"When can the drug medicine be refined?" the temple-servant asked.
"When will you send all the herbs? I can make the drug medicine in three days."
“It's too long. The patients in the city can't wait so long!"
“I have some medicine on hand. I can give it to you first, but only after I receive the medicine I need."
The temple-servant said, "You cunning……"
"What medicine herbs do you need?" Yi Fan raised his voice and interrupted the temple-servant's fury.
Yan Mo opened his mouth and gave out a series of drug names. Of course, they were all called these names by the Horn-people. In order to hide Yuan Zhan's ability to give grow plants, he didn't want all seeds or fresh goods, but a large number of all kinds, including many herbs he needed for bone sculpting.
The temple-servant, in spite of his anger, took out his parchment and pen and quickly wrote down the name and quantity of the medicine he said.
When Yi Fan heard that most of the herbs Yan Mo called were in ancient Bone Sculpting language names, he was more convinced that Yan Mo had accepted the ancient heritage of the Horn-people. “In addition, there are several groups of people who had come here first, where are they now? Can you please let them get here so we can leave with them? "
Yan Mo looked ordinary, “letting the go is okay, but it will cost 30000 bone coins for one person. After all, they are the same people who came to kill me and my warriors. I can't just let them go so easily. "
"30000?” The temple-servant wanted to bargain.
Yuan Zhan suddenly opened his mouth: “Forty thousand for one person, ten thousand for each additional question you ask."
The temple-servant was angry but he had to shut up. He thought that these greedy hornless demon are dead men walking, let’s just waiting for our Horn-warrior to get through this crisis, hum!
“I will tell the witch the truth." Yi Fan also knows that it's impossible to achieve all the purposes of the witch this time. In fact, the witch also said that it's good if they manage to get a batch of drug medicine first and come back with it, and other things can be discussed again. At present, their most important thing is to wake up the City Lord and restore order to the Wuqian city.
As for the exchange of hostages with bone coins, this is not new to them. The three clans of the Horn-people and the cities are not completely peaceful, especially the Red-Horn and the Black-Horn clans will do this kind of thing. It is common for them to fight.
Later, Yi Fan said he wanted to speak to Yan Mo alone and let everyone else leave.
Yan Mo motioned to Yuan Zhan, who knew that he could protect himself and went out very cleanly.
Others didn't stay much.
About five minutes later, Yi Fan came out of the thatched hut with a bottle of drug medicine Yan Mo gave him.
The temple-servant looked at him.
Yi Fan nodded to him.
The temple-servant was very happy.
Yi Fan didn't say that this bottle of medicine is what Yan Mo especially made for the City Lord and it cost a whole 50000 bone coins. He felt a little ironic. He didn't ask for a bone coin to send the medicine Yan Mo had given to him previously to the City Lord. The City Lord's younger brother and the great witch refused to give it to the City Lord. Now after so many days, they just let the City Lord end up into a serious illness and spend so much bone coins to buy medicine. They think it’s a treasure.
Master Yi Fan and others came and went quickly. Many of the Hornless-men in the camp were scared and went to hide in the thatched hut when they saw the Horn-people coming, and some ran to the surrounding fields. They were scared, afraid that the Horn-people would kill them.
After Hou Shi came out, he was surrounded by the brave Hornless-men and asked what the Hornless-men were doing here.
Hou Shi's big mouth croaked excitedly without thinking much – this is why Yan Mo took him to the meeting.
There were also people around Xi Yang, but some of them came to report something important. After listening, Xi Yang flew to find Yan Mo.
"Da-Ren, another group of the Hornless-men come here. They are survivors of a village in the south. They came with their village witch. "
When Yan Mo saw Xi Yang's face, he knew that the identity of the Hornless-men was different. "What happened to the village witch?"
"He is also ill. He is very serious ill. Their villagers are kneeling at the intersection now, begging you to help them."
“I'll go now!"
