Chapter 17 Anjia Village 1
Sanhan's work was faster than An Xiaoxiao expected, and he brought the news back within three days.Several people gathered in the cubicle on the second floor of the medical hall, and took turns reporting what they had seen and heard in Anjia Village to An Xiaoxiao.

"The boss of Village Chief An's house." Erhan tore off the crooked beard on his face, and stretched out three fingers to gesture there, "It's so tall, it's bigger than our medical clinic, and it's rich."

"The little woman in his family, who is thin and tender, wears gold and silver." Xiaohan rubbed his palms, laughed a few times, and said, "It's really a good birth."

The three chattered non-stop, and An Xiaoxiao couldn't help but interrupt after listening for a long time: "How is the current situation of Anjia Village?"

"It's very strange." The conversation paused for a moment, Han San's eyes rolled, and his tone was subtle.

"strangeness?"

Han San scratched his scalp and racked his brains to organize his words, "I can't speak well, I just think everything is weird."

Well, going is the same as not going.An Xiaoxiao was speechless in her heart, and with a big wave of her hand, they each gave some money to send them away.

According to the memory of the original owner, she lived in a small farmhouse when she escaped from the house. How long has it been since the house on the third floor can be lived in?

There is really a lot of fat and water.

An Xiaoxiao sneered inwardly.When the original mother was still alive, she was reluctant to buy even a good dress, but now she wears gold belts and silver for the little wife, and she is not afraid of retribution.

"Anniang, I pulled the ox cart to the woods far away." Da Wu, who pushed through the door, put the burden on the table, picked up the tea bowl and drank a few gulps, "I've prepared all the dry food too. Alright, when are we leaving?"

"No rush." ​​An Xiaoxiao waved her hand, seeing no one around, she simply closed her eyes and began to carefully count the equipment in the space.Da Wu was no stranger to her appearance for a long time, and he began to pack the things in his luggage while sitting on the side.

Yu Hui gradually turned to the west, An Xiaoxiao looked at the street with her head, and asked Dawu to leave through the back door.

It was noon when An Xiaoxiao and Dawu arrived at Anjia Village. As soon as she stepped into the boundary of Anjia Village, she immediately understood what Han San meant by "strange".

The streets are so deserted.

Noon was supposed to be the busiest time, but there were not even a few people on the street. Occasionally someone passed by with a hurried look. The shops lined up next to it were empty, and the waiter leaned against the door, yawning listlessly.

"Anniang, there are no ghosts here." Dawu felt goosebumps aroused by the cold atmosphere, he shook his shoulders, leaned close to An Xiaoxiao's ear and lowered his voice, "It's not like a place for living people."

The warm breath rushed behind her ears, causing An Xiaoxiao to move her shoulders. She raised her hands and pushed her head away from her shoulders, and sighed, "Look for an inn first."

"Xiao Er, Xiao Er." The two walked for a long time before finding an inn, the shop was empty, only scattered customers were sitting in the shop, Da Wu stood at the door and shouted at the top of his voice, only to see a man dressed in long gown When he came out of the store, he took the burden from the two of them, and said with a warm smile, "Do you want to stay in the store?"

The man's face was full of smiles, but his eyes were black and blue, his face was surrounded by sickness, and his eyes couldn't hide the tiredness.

"Stay in the hotel, just arrange a guest room for us." Da Wu raised his voice, and put his arms around An Xiaoxiao, "Daughter-in-law, you should rest for two days to take care of yourself, and we will go on our way after we are done."

The man led them to the second floor, took a key from his waist and handed it to them, "I live in the backyard, sir, if you have any orders, just go to the yard and find me."

"I know." Da Wu waved his hand impatiently, took the key and pushed the door directly to enter.

The layout of the guest room is no different from that of an ordinary inn, Da Wu looked out cautiously before closing the door.He wiped the sweat from his brow, spread his legs and leaned against the table and let out a long breath.

"Why are you so nervous?" An Niang looked at him.

"Didn't you say don't scare the snake!" Da Wu's face was filled with wonder.

"Then are we going to startle the snake now?"

"It's not about being careful." Da Wu blushed and spit out these words for a long time.

"An ordinary couple passed by an ordinary village, and they stayed for a few days, what's the problem?" An Xiaoxiao emphasized, using three ordinary words in a row.

Da Wu was confused when he heard it, scratched his head, and laughed again, "We are an ordinary couple."

Big fool.An Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes, stood up and patted Dawu's arm, "Get up, let's go out for a stroll."

The two of them strolled slowly from noon until the sun went down before returning to the inn. The man in the long coat before was lying on the counter to keep accounts. When he saw the two of them coming in, he quickly got up: "Shall I send the dinner to the guest room for the two of you?"

"In such a big shop, even a waiter is reluctant to invite, no wonder there is no business." Dawu waved his hands impatiently, sat carelessly in the lobby, and said in a rough voice: "First serve a pot of wine, and then arrange a few side dishes. "

"To tell you the truth, the second and second children in the hall have been getting sick one after another in the past few days, and there is really no one in the shop." The man in the long coat stood by, and after hearing Da Wu's complaint, he smiled wryly: "I can't serve you, sir, please take care of me. "

"If you feel unwell, you can take medicine to treat the disease. Is there no doctor's pharmacy in the village?" Dawu's expression became more dissatisfied, and his voice became louder and louder: "After all, it's still a small place. After shopping all afternoon, there is not even a shop that is open. I think I can’t find a place to buy something for my daughter-in-law.”

"It's not what I said, I think you don't look very good, brother, pay more attention." Da Wu's voice grew louder as he spoke, causing the only few individual customers in the store to look at him frequently.

"Guest officer, don't worry." The man coughed a few times and responded with a smile, "I'll go to the backyard to prepare food first, you two will wait a moment."

"Did you feel weak all over the past few days, and occasionally have a fever at night?" Just as the man turned around, An Xiaoxiao suddenly asked.

"Girl, you!" The man in the gown looked surprised, and turned to look at her. An Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate, and directly stuffed a few packs of medicinal powder into his hands, "Take it with warm water, three times a day."

Surprised and suspicious, the man finally put the powder into his palm and turned away.

The side dishes were quickly served on the table. An Xiaoxiao and Dawu moved a few chopsticks, then pretended to be tired and went back to the guest room.

"For the next few days, don't touch any food here, not even water." An Xiaoxiao opened the bag and took out a few pieces of dry food and medicine powder, and handed them to Dawu, "Swallow the medicine."

"Do you know what's going on?" Da Wu scratched his head.

"It's almost there." An Xiaoxiao said concisely.

In the dead of night, An Xiaoxiao was lying on the bed with all her clothes on, when she heard a rustling sound coming from the door, Da Wu suddenly got up from the ground and leaned against the door, "Who?"

"it's me."

The two followed the person in front of them through the backyard. The man in long gown held a candle and pushed open the wooden door. Looking from a distance, he saw three men lying on the bed with their eyes closed tightly, unable to see clearly.An Xiaoxiao frowned and was about to approach, but Da Wu quickly grabbed her, "Mother An!"

An Xiaoxiao took the candle from the man in long gown, patted Dawu's arm to indicate that nothing happened, and walked into the room quickly.

The faces of the three men were flushed with heat, their heads were covered with wet cloths, and their bodies had occasional convulsions. The symptoms were exactly the same as those of the Guo sisters at that time.
